🤯" Scarlet's POV "🤯

😶" Resume From Where Left Off "😶

Max is bleeding everywhere. Her breathing picks up and it seems as if sh hyperventilating.

"Max? Max?! Max, what the hell is going on?!", Haylee yells at Max. Max looks up slightly.

"L-Lucifer's d-death sphere.", she says almost in an inaudible voice before her eyes close and her body goes limp leaning against Haylee. My eyes widen in shock.

"Shit. Shit shit shit. MOTHERFUCKER!", I yell in anger causing everyone to look at us.

They gasp at the sight of Max bloody body in Haylee's arms.

Max no longer had her wings, horns, or the glowing on her arms.

"Scarlet. What the hell is Lucifer's death sphere?", Tyler asks and I take a deep breath.

"It only works against angels and demons. It's basically a curse. We either figure out how to reverse it within less than 24 hours or.....", I say trailing off as I put my head down.

"B-but we can reverse it, right? Right?!", Tyler asks and I sigh.

"It depends. The reversal spell is a very complex spell, it's not for beginners like me.", I tell him and he sighs.

"Well then, we need to try to others to help you. Hell, we can even try to get a witch or 2 from your coven to help!", he exclaims and I shake my head.

"I can't do that.", I say pacing back and forth. I snap my fingers and teleport all 4 of us back to Max's and my dorm.

"What the hell do you mean 'you can't'?!", he asks in frustration.

"Look! Do you think I wanted this to happen?! Why the hell do you think I went in there to help her?! It damn surely wasn't for my health!", I yell at him and then take a few deep breaths.

"Look, I can't do it cause the more witches that get involved in the spell, the more likely there is to have a high number of fatalities.", I tell him and sigh.

"So, basically the spell is, a life for a life or something?", he asks and I shrug with a painful smile.

"Black magic has it's prices. The only type of witches that can preform the spell with the least likely chance of dying is a witch that is a professional in the dark magic department and even then they might still die.", I tell him and he nods looking down with a sad expression on his face.

"Well, what are we waiting for?", a voice from the doorway sounds.

I make an energy ball that can cause a person critical damage.

"Who the hell are you and what the hell do you want?!", I yell at the woman standing at the door.

"Woah, woah! Easy killer! I'm an extremely powerful healer who specializes in just about all the departments of magic!", she yells rushing over to Max.

"How the hell did you kno-", I go to say but then I'm cut off.

"I was told what happen and knew immediately who to call. She just popped outta thin air into my office and now, well here we are.", the Head-mistress says and I nod.

"Which, since I know how busy you usually are thanks babe.", the Head-mistress said and we look at her in shock.

"BABE?!", Tyler, Haylee, and I ask all at the same time. I hear a chuckle from Max's bed and look over to see Max awake.

"Well, she's finished. No more of that icky Lucifer sphere thing. And it was no problem babe.", the lady says as she walks outta the room and pecks the Head-mistress on the lips.

Tyler, Haylee, and I all have our mouths hung wide open all while Max laughs at us.

"You guys are a cute couple.", Max says to the Head-mistress and the lady and the Head-mistress blushes.

"Um, thank you.", she says shyly causing the lady to chuckle.

"Come on babe, let's go.", the lady says waving bye to us.

"BYE! THANK YOU FOR SAVING MY LIFE!", Max yells only to be laughed at.

💞" Max's POV "💞

They walk outta the room and I sit up on my bed.

"Well, the Head-mistress's girlfriend seems really nice.", I say looking over at Tyler, Scarlet, and Haylee to see them still standing dumbfounded looking the door with their mouths and eyes widen.

♤They act as if they've never seen a gay couple before.♤ I say to my angel and demon side.

♡Well, in their defense, they haven't really had the chance to see the outside world as much as you do.♡ My angel side says and my demon side and I nod.

☆♤True.☆♤ My demon side and I say at the same time.

"Hey guys. Pick your jaws up off the ground. You're gonna end up swallowing a fly.", I say and they snap their attention over to me.

"Thank you. God I swear, I saw drool starting to drip on the floor.", I say point to the tiny wet drips on the floor with a chuckle.

"Are you okay? Do you feel better? Do you ne-", Scarlet asked the first question, Tyler asked the second question, and Haylee went to say the last question before I cut them off.

"I'm fine. I mean yeah, it still hurts a bit but I'm sure it could've been worse, but I'm still here.", I say getting up outta my bed.

"Look I'm tired, probably from the blood lose or from the reversal spell. I smell like B.O. and I wanna shower. It's about like what, 7 maybe 8. You 2 should start getting ready to leave so we can get ready for bed and wake up for school tomorrow. Hopefully the school's magic to repair things will be done by then.", I say trudging over to my suit case getting my toiletries, clothes, and a towel.

I think I'm just gonna start leaving my toiletries in the bathroom so it's not such a pain. I think to myself as I walk into the bathroom closing and locking the door.

I strip outta my clothes and look at my side and stomach. I have 2 kinda big scars.

♤Cool.♤ I say lightly touching the one on my side which kinda hurt.

☆Ow you idiot!☆ My demon side yelled at me. My angel side smacks him upside the head.

♡Stop yelling at her you idiotic fool!♡ My angel side yells at my demon side.

♤Okay guys, that's enough arguing. You're giving me a massive migrane!♤ I exclaim mentally rubbing my temple's as I turn the shower on.

I turn the shower on mainly cold then get in it to take a shower.

🤪" 10 Minutes Later "🤪

I brush my teeth then brush my hair. I put my hair up in a messy bun then open the bathroom door and walk outta the bathroom. I see that my sheets were cleaned. I was just gonna put a new set of sheets on my bed myself but I guess this works too.

"Tyler and Haylee just left.", Scarlet says and I nod. I plop down face first onto my bed not caring about the slight bit of sharp pain that shot through my side.

"Okay.", I say to her. There's this tension in the room, it's thick enough for a knife no a chainsaw to cut it.

"What's bothering you?", I ask kindly and outta curiosity and she sighs.

"I don't know?", she says in more of a question then statement.

"You and I both know that you know what's bothering you. I'm not gonna force it outta ya or anything I'm just gonna let ya know that, if you need anything, I mean anything at all, it could be to vent out to or to even help pick out a outfit that looks good, I mean, I may not be the best person for fashion advice but I'll try.", I say to her which she chuckles to.

"Thanks Max.", she says and I nod.

"It's no problem Scarlet, what are friends for, right.", I say to her and she nods.

"Well, goodnight Scarlet.", I say to her and pull my blanket up to my chest.

"Goodnight Max.", she says and turns the light off.

☆Soooo...☆ My demon side trails off

♤What?♤ I ask

♡He wants to know if you like her.♡ My angel side says with a sigh.

♤Dude, we just met like not even a full month ago and you're going to ask me that question! And besides that, we're just friends you Stultus!♤ I exclaim to my demon side and gasps.

☆Who are you calling an idiot you, Inprobus!☆ My demon side exclaims and I roll my eyes.

♤Oh, so now I'm a jerk. Stop being a Puer clamare.♤ I say sarcastically and my angel side sighs.

♡Can both of you please shut the hell up?! God! You guys are irritating and giving me a headache!♡ My angel side yells to which I chuckle to then stick my tongue out at my demon side.

☆Don't think that this is over!☆ My demon side exclaims and I laugh at him as he storms off into the back of my mind.

♡I swear, you 2 act worse than siblings with their sibling rivalry.♡ My angel side says and I giggle.

♤Goodnight, to you too. Can say goodnight to the demon for me?♤ I ask and my angel side nods.

♡Sure, and goodnight.♡ She says as walks away.

I tiredly yawn. Today has been a long and exhausting day, let's not forget painful. I think to myself as close my eyes and fall into the deep dark pits of sleep filled with nightmares.

🙃" About 6 Hours or so Later "🙃

I look around myself and see nothing bit darkness.

"Hello?", I ask as I still look around me trying to figure out where I'm at then suddenly right in front of me a woman appears. She looks a bit aloder than me, I'd have to say early twenties maybe mid twenties.

She looks almost exactly like me except, she has... pinkish purple colored eyes?

"H-hello.", I hesitantly say and she smiles at me.

"You've finally made it! Good, I need to tell you something.", she says and grabs my arm

"But, I can't tell here.", she says and then we end up in another place. It seems peaceful and filled with light yet at the same time violent and filled with darkness.

"I need to tell you something extremely important.", she says quickly

"I need you as the princess of this realm to protect it. I know you can feel the darkness. That's what I need you to protect the realm from.", she says and I give her a confused look.

"What the hell do you mean princess of this realm? What is going on?! And, who the hell are you, why the hell did you bring me here?!", I yell yank my arm outta her grasp.

"You really don't remember anything, do you?", she asks and I give her another confused look and she sighs.

She brings both hands up and places left hand on my right temple then her right hand on my left temple.

Her eyes start to glow a bright pinkish color and then, images appear in my head.

Images of me. I mean it wasn't me but it looked like me.

"What the hell is this?", I ask and the woman stands next to me.

"This is who you are. You aren't just any ordinary powerful being, you're the most powerful. You are a warrior and you are also a princess. You'd sacrifice yourself not only to protect others but also to save others. You are princess Max of the Angel and Demon realm. The realm where angels and demons can live along side each other without feeling the need to kill one another.", she says and then sighs.

"I need your help, as princess of this realm and my daughter I need your help to protect this realm. Lucifer and God are searching for this place, that's what the darkness is that you feel.", she says and I look at her shocked.

"I have no time to explain, I must go before they realize I'm communicating with someone. Until we meet again my darling child.", she says and boops my nose.

My eyes shoot open and I jolt straight up outta bed.

"W-what the hell was that?!", I ask myself then shake my head.

"It was just a dream, right?", I ask myself looking around.

"But it felt so real.", I say then look at the time.

It's 5 in the morning. So I'm guessing I got about 6 or so hours of sleep. Longest amount of sleep I've had in a hot minute.

I get up and start getting ready to take a shower.

♤What do you guys think?♤ I ask my demon and angel side and my angel side answers which is odd cause my demon side would normally jump at any chance to speak.

♡I already know it was real.♡ My angel side says and I sigh.

♤Gee, thanks. Tell me more bluntly take make this situation seem so easy why don't you.♤ I sarcastically say and my demon side sighs.

♤Hey, what's wrong with you bub? You not feeling good or something?♤ I ask my demon side kindly only to be mentally slapped by my angel side.

♤OW! YOU AIN'T GOTTA BE SO MEAN! I'M ONLY TRYING TO BE NICE!♤ I yell at my angel side and she rolls her eyes.

♡ I swear, you have more things in common with him than with me.♡ My angel side says

♤ Why do you say that?♤ I ask and she sighs.

♡First off, you're both idiots. Second off, you both can be jerks.♡ My angel side says and I gasp.

♤How rude!♤ I exclaim

♡If he wasn't feeling good, you wouldn't be feeling all that great either.♡ My angel side says and I sigh.

♤Ya know what. I don't even feel like taking ashower any more.♤ I say dropping my clothes back into the suitcase.

♤I don't even feel like changing, nor getting up today. I'm not even hungry.♤ I tell them as I lay back down on my bed.

♤I'm gonna try going back to sleep. Just leave me alone for now.♤ I say to them as I close my eyes and try to go back to sleep.

All I can think about right at the moment is, what happens next?

I'm probably going to feel worse today if I make everyone feel worried about me. I'm just gonna lay here for now. I think to myself as I do my best to keep my thoughts outta the dark depths of my mind.
