Eyes On Me

He grabbed his backpack filled with his high tech equipment as we walked toward the building.

"Okay C set up, and help me find a good lead. I'll put on the glasses now." I said putting on high tech glasses and the headset leaving the building.

I look around setting analysis mode on the glasses.

"Okay J, you ready?" I hear in my ear.

I touch the ear piece. "I'm always ready."

"Oh coarse you are. Be careful these guys are dangerous."

"I know."

"And make sure no one sees them. Anyone who sees these shadow demons or the black guild MUST be brainwashed."

I sighed.

"I know, I know."

"I know you don't like brainwashing people but you ha-" He was cut off by a high pitch scream off in the distance.

I perked up looking at the direction of the scream and grab my gun from my holster.

"J, go!" I hear in my ear.

I ran to the source of noise as it never died down. When I get to the location I see a raven haired girl and a dark haired boy being cornered in front of the movie theater.

He was shielding her from the black creature."

"C, is that a shadow demon?"

"Scanning now." He said as I could see the glasses scanning the monster.

"Yes. It consumes souls of people that show fear or sadness. It says it feeds on fear and can easily go inside a new host."

"Okay. What's it's weakness?"

"It says the weakness is silver."

I grinned while holding up my gun aiming down the scope.

"Good thing I have my silver made bullets in."

"You always come prepared." He said in my ear.

I cocked the gun aiming down the down my sight.

I see the creature get closer to them both.

I hear her scream out in fear.

'She will be the target for this creature that's for sure.'

"Stan!!! It's getting closer." She yelled hiding behind the boy..

I pulled the trigger hearing the click but it didn't shoot. My heart jolted when I pulled the magazine out seeing NO bullets. I grit my teeth in frustration and confusion.

'I swear I loaded to the max.. How are they all missing?'

"Jess act now or those people will die!" He yelled in my ear.

I growled while grabbing my knife from my pocket. 'Thankfully I have enough silver to kill this thing, hopefully.'

I sprint as fast as I could toward their direction.

I see the boy spread his arms out creating a wall to protect the girl.

"Run Wendy!!!" He yelled.

"No, not without you!" She cried out.

I hear the creature laugh in a deep sinister tone as it held it's claws up.

The boy closed his eyes, looking away and grit his teeth in fear.

I make it behind the creature and slide on my feet stepping in front of the boy. The monster slashed at my blade held up shielding my face. It's claws went clean through cutting his hand in half. It spat a hellish scream as I spun in a complete circle getting the extra momentum aiming my knife at it's neck. It grew silent as it's head fell on the ground. At that moment the body liquidized while fading away getting absorbed in the ground. I breathed out looking at my knife seeing black goop. I look in disgust wiping the blade on my arm.

"W-Wait.. We aren't,dead?" I hear the boy say behind me. I sighed putting my knife away with one hand. With the other hand I grabbed my brainwashing device. I turned around clicking on my glasses putting a mode on where I wouldn't get effected by the flash.

"Yes, yes you two are alive. Can you two do me a big favor and focus right here please?" I asked holding the device up. They looked into it with confusion plastered on their faces. I pressed the button seeing the flash from the light.

"Okay, so what happened here was you two were just going to the movies on a date. Clearly you have a strong connection with one another. Hope you two have a great date." I said putting the device away. I clicked my glasses setting the mode off as I could see clearly again.

What I didn't know was someone else was watching me from a far.
