The Jinns Amongst Us

Chapter 56

"Fancying yourself as a hunter when you're nothing more than a lapdog to the pathetic humans you serve." said the demon. "Says the bastard who uses the life force of them to linger on earth." said Khayun.

"It's a shame to kill animals when monsters lurk around in numbers, I only kill and take their life force because they deserve it, but that was all in the past, right before you took me down by surprise." said the demon. "Then is that why you're here? to kill me? to end this once and more all? because even if you succeed, the others will find and kill you next." said Khayun.

"Not if they didn't figure out you're dead yet, I'll just take over your body, just as Olc'ik briefed." said the demon. "Olc'ik? he sought to diminish you, why would you stand by his side?" asked Khayun.

"He never sought to diminish me, you i***t! he sought to diminish you, the only way for him to take control of you was to have me in your head, and the only way to do that, is to kill the wretched beast whom I took control of." said the demon. "He was confident, I would win, how?" asked Khayun.

"He's been watching you for a long time now, Khayun, since the moment he sent you to earth, a step in his life long dream to e*****e all life on earth and countless other worlds as well." said the demon. "Too bad it would never see the light, after I kill you!" yelled Khayun who rushes out to engage onto him, fighting him off by surprise as the demon backs around.

"Face it, you can't beat me." said Khayun as he launches in a wave of energy that surges through multiple places around the demon to which even though the demon dodges, manages to hit by one to which it falls.

"I don't need to defeat you, I only have to do this." said the demon who turns away into a surge of fiery veins which hastingly comes after Khayun to which he starts fleeing away. "You think a wave of tree barks could stop me?" asked Khayun who attempts to surge in a few blasts towards the fiery veins as it comes close, burning each as it gets closer.

"Enough of this!" yelled Khayun who launches in a massive surge of energy as he runs, charging with all this power which even have effects on the ones he is channeling within. And soon, once he reaches out his maximum, he turns into a wave of pure energy, making him feel free and invulnerable given the amount of power he now feels.

"You want me? here I am!" yelled Khayun as he flips and lands on his feet whilst turning towards the wave of fiery veins as it comes. Then just as it reaches him, he launches in a massive blast, using all his absorbed energy into the surface, causing a surge devastation that literally burns away the demon as it attempts to flee away from the surge as it returns to its form.

"This isn't over Khayun, this isn't..." said the demon right before Khayun launches a wave of chains, using his dark green power which latches onto him completely, chaining up. "Oh, but it is, get over here!" yelled Khayun as he pulls the demon whilst burning him with his power, making the demon scream as he rips apart the demon into two while it bursts out to pieces, causing a massive blast which pushes all three of them away into reality as they get thrown down.

"What... what the hell happened?" asked Afreen who attempts to get him, as she tries to spot the others, of whom, he comes across Khayun carrying the head of the demon which he brought back.

Afreen gets frightened upon seeing it's horrible face, but shuts her own mouth before she screams whilst Sharon walks over to him, having been caused a massive headache thanks to their battle within her head. "Is that the?" asked Sharon.

"The demon itself, gone forever, now you will have no trouble of him." said Khayun. "Demon? wait, what do you mean?" asked Afreen. "It's a long story, one I will tell you later, right now, I need to speak with her." said Khayun looking at Sharon.

"Well... not exactly a idea I would recommend, she still seems pretty pissed about you leaving her trapped within the mirror dimension, and... (listens to Fatima from the inside) without her powers drawn in from the wraith, there is no way to communicate, not unless you carry a mirror with you all the time, one large enough to bring her to a view." said Sharon. "I don't need a mirror, all I need is reflection, one that is visible is enough to me." said Khayun looking at Afreen. "Uhm.. why are you guys looking at me?" asked Afreen.

"Cast your powers onto a point, use as much energy as possible." said Khayun. "Not sure I'm ready for that, I mean, I haven't still... woah.." said Afreen as Khayun holds her hand and points it into a direction, further from the house, but within the yard. "Now, begin concentrating, do not unleash it all at once, but control, and send a partition of it towards the direction you wish." said Khayun. "Uhmm.. right, concentrate, got it." said Afreen as she attempts to draw onto her powers as her eyes glow with invisible flame.

"I, I think I got it, guys, I think I.." said Afreen who excites as her hands begins burning to which she casts a vast amount of flaming power onto a tree at the ends of the yard, which completely starts burning it.

"Holy s**t!" yelled Afreen as Khayun attempts to control the flame, and finally quells it down. "Maybe we should.." said Sharon before getting interrupted by Khayun. "No, let her try, she needs to learn." said Khayun as he points out her hand again. "Now, your powers channel in on your emotions, as a means of source to a power, keep them in check while casting it down with concentration, and you'll have it." said Khayun.

"No laughing, got it." said Afreen who then concentrates with suppressed emotions as possible, but still manages to launch in a vast amount of flame right in front of them, which started off as a small sparkle. "Woah, I'm really sorry." said Afreen. "Seems too large enough, but it'll do for now." said Khayun. "Well, it's reflecting, isn't it, you can try I guess?" asked Afreen. " to which Sharon nods and transfers it a bridge path to Fatima to which she appears within a small portion of it, in her true form. "I am.. finally awake." said Fatima.

"Hello Foll.. I mean Fatima, nice to finally meet you." said Khayun. "Khayun, the bastard himself, I suppose I owe you a thanks for helping me get rid of him, but.. don't think this changes anything." said Fatima. "What? Fatima, he just saved your life while almost going to sacrifice his own." said Sharon.

"Perhaps he should have done it in the first place, instead of trapping me here, where I am forced to spend eternity alone." said Fatima. "You came after me, this is your fault." said Khayun. "Not mine, yours, I was only trying to help you, the wraith which latched onto your head, came into mine." said Fatima.

"Then you should ask, the next time before you pry into someone's head, anyway, I think we're done here, come after me again, and I will kill you, same way I did to your little wraith." said Khayun. "Same goes for you, don't think this changes anything." said Fatima.

"But Fatima, why? does the effects still has a toll on her?" asked Sharon towards Khayun. "Could be, at least she's free to think on her own now." said Khayun while Fatima still enrages on seeing Khayun in front of her..

"Isn't there a way to save her then?" asked Sharon. "There might be, but you're going to have to go, to the head of wraiths himself." said Khayun. "Who is that?" asked Sharon. "Well.. he goes by many names, but present one is called Lucifer, though I have no idea where he could he be?" asked Sharon.

"Lucifer is real?" asked Afreen. "In a way, I wish I could help you get her free, but I can't.." said Khayun. "Please, you've done enough, leave the rest to me, I'll figure it out." said Sharon.

"Okay then, close the flame then." said Khayun to which Afreen steps in front. "I still have no idea what's going on, but, I'm gonna keep quiet, bye." said Afreen who shuts in the flame, turning into pure dust. "And, she's back... but seriously, thank you Khayun, I owe you one." said Sharon. "You could repay that, by figuring out what Olc'ik wants with me." said Khayun.

"I would, but Olc'ik will never accept anything I say, unless I bring him what he needs, your head." said Sharon. "Good thing I have this then." said Khayun as he burns in the head of the demon he carries with dark green flame, and slowly transforms it's appearance into his Jinni face which be hands towards Sharon. "Take this and give it to him, if you wish, it's worth a try." said Khayun.

"And if I do this, we're even?" asked Sharon. "Yes, I suppose we are." said Khayun. "We'll see, be seeing you then, bye Afreen, it was nice meeting you again." said Sharon. "Wait, holy s**t, you're that cop Sharon, aren't you? I didn't recognise you at first." said Afreen.

"Yeah, a lifetime ago, it's past now, anyway, be seeing you guys, good luck with whatever you got going." said Sharon as she bids goodbye and leaves to which Khayun returns into the form of his human self.

"I've been meaning to ask, if you're here as Tim, then what happened to him, the real Timothy, is he okay?" asked Afreen.
