Memories (2)

The demon was starring right at Luke, Luke could feel the bloodlust of the demon, but it was too late at that point. Before Luke even realized it, his head was in the air with a drizzle of blood behind it.

__________

In the tent.

Luke woke up with a cold sweat, he was scared.

'Holy shit! I died. That was a lot quicker than I thought it would be.'

Luke breathed in and out with long, deep breaths.

'Status, Memory.'

-------

Memory 1, Invaders, 2 Lives

-------

'Alright well, that confirms it...WHAT THE HELL! WHY ARE THEY GIVING ME A BOSS MONSTER IN MY FIRST MEMORY! This damned CEO, giving a hard memory from the get-go.'

Little did Luke know that the future memories would be even more torturous and that this seemed like child's play compared to the future memories.

Luke then did all the steps and dived back into the memory.

__________

In the school cafeteria.

"Hellooooo, earth to Luke."

Luke snapped out of the daze as he soon remembered what was about to happen. At first, he thought that he should just run right away, but then he thought about it and it probably wouldn't work. First, although the system didn't mention it, he was pretty sure that he had to complete the memory similar to how it happened in the past, and second, when he saw the demon it looked like he was after him, he was pretty sure that the demon would show up next to him even if he did run away so instead he prepared.

While Luke was thinking about it John was getting more and more annoyed, he thought Luke was ignoring him on purpose, so he kicked him on the ass.

"GET A MOVE ON LUKE!"

Luke looked behind him as he remembered he was in a line.

"Sorry John, just thinking."

Luke then went up to the trays and this time picked up a tray with spaghetti instead of pizza.

'Ok let's plan here, I won't be able to outrun the demon as much as I want to, so instead I have to fight it. I don't have any weapons though.'

Luke looked around as he remembered.

'Oh, how dumb am I, there must be knives in the kitchen, so should I wait until the demon lands and take advantage of the confusion and sneak into the kitchen... NO WAY! I'm gonna head in there right the hell now, what are those old ladies gonna do about it, they're all probably gonna die later anyways.'

Luke decided on a game plan. He would rush into the kitchen, find a knife or any other sharp object and improvise from there.

Luke put down his tray and went up to John and started to whisper in your ear.

"John listen we've been friends since the 3rd grade, so I need you to trust me and follow what I'm gonna do."

"What's going on Luke?"

"Don't worry about it for now just trust me when I say that it is anything besides something good, so please follow me."

"...Ok I trust you, Luke I know you aren't dumb and you have always had my back, I'll follow you."

"Ok thank you, John. First We are gonna need to rush into the kitchen and get some knives to defend ourselves or anything else that can hurt someone badly."

Then as Luke went into the lead they rushed into the back kitchen.

"WHAT ARE YOU KIDS DOING GET OUT OF HERE!?"

The lunch ladies started to yell at both John and Luke expecting them to just leave as nothing happened, but of course Luke and John didn't listen to them, they had a goal on their mind.

Luke soon spotted it, a knife, but to his disappointment, it was only one.

"Go an take it John I'm sure I can find something else to use."

FWOOOOOOM.

As soon as that loud noise came into Luke and John's ear, they knew that this was it. John rushed up and grabbed the knife while Luke hurriedly looked for something else to use, time was ticking.

BOOOOOOM!

Soon enough the loud boom resonated through everyone's ears, Luke was going as fast as possible.

A couple of seconds already passed as Luke saw a weapon he could use to fight, a mezzaluna.

He grabbed it as fast as he could and immediately got battle-ready, and soon enough the demon rushed at him.

The demon was about to behead him once again until Luke gripped onto the mezzaluna, and sliced in a horizontal line, the demon was expecting anything besides this, but he still had a quick reaction. He was left with a line of blood from his side through his chest to the other side, it wasn't too deep, but it still stung like hell.

Although Luke was happy he landed a hit he didn't let it get to him, he then quickly sliced again, but the demon was expecting it and easily dodged out of the way, and landed a swift punch on his stomach. Luke immediately spat out blood as his whole insides exploded, the demon was angry at Luke for cutting him so he decided to not end it quickly.

He slowly broke all of his bones one by one letting the pain sink in.

"AHHHHHH, AHHHHHH." The pain was unbearable for Luke, he was about to lose consciousness when he saw something behind the demon and let out a smile. It was John.

John slowly snuck behind the demon, usually with the demon's amazing senses he would tell that John was there, but he was sucked into making Luke feel as much pain as possible, so his senses were off point.

As John inched closer and closer, his heartbeat got faster and faster, but he was committed, he knew that this was all or nothing, and although he has never experienced anything like this, he felt something in him that was ready for it, he was excited.

Once he was close enough he quickly stabbed the demon in the neck, all of the way through. The demon was caught completely off guard and after getting stabbed in the neck, let out a scream of pain.

"AHHHHHHH." Luke was surprised, not because of the demon being able to scream, but because of the girly scream it let out.

'Was it a girl all along, or does it just sound like a girl. It doesn't matter I have to end this.'

Luke stood up and fought through the horrible pain he was feeling, adrenalin pumping through his body gave him the strength to stand up and land the final blow, although the demon broke his bones he did it very slowly, so he only finished his left arm.

Luke held up the mezzaluna in his right arm and have a horizontal slash with all his power, and like that he beheaded the demon.

Luke was happy to finish and fell asleep once his adrenalin left him, 'I slashed his head off this time, how ironic.'
