Aftermatch

About an hour passed after James's rampage, and he regained his senses. He was lying on the ground. His clothes were soaked in blood. He slowly sits down and lifts his arms. Both were painted in blood.

"AAHHHHHHHHHH!!!" He screams when he sees two torn apart bodies. Two dismembered bodies were lying on the ground. Body parts all over the alley.

James feels that he has something a little bit crunchy inside his mouth and he decides to check. He puts two fingers inside his mouth and pulls something out. When he sees what it is, he becomes pale which highlights all the blood that is on his mouth and hands. The thing that was in his mouth was a human's ear.

He felt sick and wanted to vomit, but his stomach was empty and only gastric acid came out.

James ignored the status board and got up. He leans on the wall and lights up a cigarette.

"Waste… Such a waste of a handsome face." he says as he remembers David attacking him. He was very different from the first time James saw him. David was kind earlier but he changed. Now he wanted to hurt James.

He did not feel any remorse, as the infection began to reach his mind. The only regret he had was that David was handsome.

Even for a human version of James, who barely had any interaction with anyone, death of a person didn't mean too much if he has no attachment to that person. After being demonised, feelings of pity for the dead became even more numb.

He finally feels better. No more red fog in his sight, no more buzzing sound in his ears. But he feels his gums itching. James keeps rubbing his lips with all his might, because he can barely deal with the itch.

Suddenly his teeth begin to fall. Gums start to itch again and new teeth grow. Teeth regrow in a minute. Then he checks his surroundings.

"I should get out of here. Someone is definitely looking for these two!"

He picks up his hat and sunglasses off the ground and puts them on. Then quickly rushes out of the alley.

At the same time. The demon watches him from the rooftop.

"So amusing! So entertaining!" he puts his hands on his cheeks and bites his lower lip. "He actually gained an elite ranked class!"

He bites his lower lip again till it starts bleeding. Then he smirks.

"You'll be mine! Only MINE!" he says while blushing.

Then he decided to observe James longer. He knows that James won't be able to control his demonic urges and it makes him excited and hot inside! He starts walking but his shadow still crouches while holding its hands on its cheeks.

He walked until he noticed his shadow missing. Stops and looks back. And extends his hand towards his shadow as he giggles.

"Oh dear, oh dear! I know you're just as excited as I am. But you shouldn't leave me!"

His shadow nods a few times and instantly appears back to its owner. To an untrained eye, it would look like the shadow just teleported back to its place but in reality, he walked in a relaxed manner back to its owner.

The shadow kept looking back as it stared at James and it showed a grin. The mouth has no shadow in it.

The demon snapped his fingers, and from the shadow came a black umbrella which he used as a walking stick. He checked his watch to see how many hours had passed since he turned James into a demon candidate.

"Yes, entertain me more, darling!~" then he starts whistling as he walks towards the shadow. There he uses shadow as a portal to leave the rooftop.

*James's apartment*

He locked the doors. He walked barefoot so he wouldn't leave any blood trails which would lead the enhancers towards his apartment. Luckily he knew a different way towards his place. Usually he used to avoid it, because it has basically no lights.

He walked into the bathroom and took a shower. He carefully inspected his own body. He gently rubbed his own chest, then belly, tights and in the end his crotch.

He killed people. For the first time in his life, he actually killed someone. He feels no guilt as they were the ones who wanted him harm. In fact, he felt excited. Suddenly he remembers the demon that kissed him. He puts a finger on his lips and blushes.

"T-that was my first kiss you idiot. Someone needs to take responsibility!" He says as he bites into his lower lip.

After a bath, he walked out only wearing his underwear with a towel on his shoulders. He walked towards the kitchen and there took a bottle of cola. He sits down on the chair and buries his face in his hands as he was ashamed that he got excited while thinking about that demon.

"This is a nightmare, right? That person is pure evil!" he keeps shaking his head.

Then a slightly close lipped smile shows up on his face. When he thinks about that man, somehow he feels hot and excited. He needs to find him. No matter what.
