Investigations

Alastor sat in a chair with Janet sitting on his bed. She had followed him to his room while leaving the demon with Tim. 

"Are you sure my demon would be okay?" she asked with fear in her voice. "I don't like how Tim was looking at him."

"I should be the one asking you the same question because Tim is still human and your demon is… well a demon."

"Tell me what I need to know."

"What do you want to know?"

"Everything about you. Who you are. What you really are. The truth and nothing but the truth."

He had so much to say to the woman but he knew saying things to her would only bring out a vulnerable part of him that he did not want opened.

Standing to his feet, he walked to the window to look out of it.

"What are you, Alastor?" she asked to her feet. "Are you a demon just like the other guy?"

"No," he said with a deep unwavering voice. "I am not."
