Derik nods "yeah they are my dog"he opens the door of the apartment on the inside it looked pitch black so Nicole says "wow you didn't pay for you electricity bill."Derik smirks a little bit he says "things don't always appear as they seem"he motions for them to go inside.they both reluctantly went inside the room but instead of them being in an apartment room everything was different the sky was black they were in a small field of grass that was grey they both saw a house that was all grey and they also saw a training field a library and in the distance they heard people screaming.They were both afraid of the screaming not knowing where it was coming from it felt as if it was very close yet so far away at the same time.derik appeared behind he says "welcome to my home next to hell you both better get use to it because this is where you both will be staying besides when you both need to go to school and for when we go to church or well you both will be going to church."They were both shocked that derik appeared behind them nicole yelled "what the actual f*ck is this real why is there screaming is this hell did you take us too hell!"
Derik shook his head then said "we are close to hell well i did block out most of the screaming and.....the other things so this is a PG version of hell or as close as we can get to one.there is a training yard for when i will train you both to fight and kill there is a library for your school work and there is a house where we are living in.derik motioned for them to follow as he starts to walk towards the house jake and nicole follow close behind.When they all got inside the house it looked like a normal house there was furniture,gameing consoles and pictures of people that jake nor nicole knew who they were.Nicole says "wait where is our stuff awww f*ck we left it in the car"derik says "nope your things are in your rooms upstairs.so you both should go to your room an-"jake's stomach growled loudly as he held onto it in pain.derik walked to the kitchen while saying "you both should put your things away while i make you some dinner but after dinner you both should wash up and go to bed."They both went upstairs into their rooms they both decided to not question things because their whole reality has been turned upside down.An hour later when they filled up on food and took a shower they went to bed jake was already exhausted from the medicine he took but nicole had trouble sleeping.
Something kept bothering her well that and the constant screaming she kept hearing in the distance so she got up.She walked into derik's room to see that he was laying on his bed with his eyes closed so she walked up to him then got on top of him.she punched him in the face and said "you are going to answer my questions so tell me why the fuck are you doing this?"derik rubbed his cheek then said "well i didn't do anything to you nor your brother"Nicole sighed then said "don't play with me derik you know what i mean why are being nice to us we don't even know you nor do you even know us."Derik stared at her in the eyes for a few minutes then said i have multiple reasons to help you for one it wasn't your time to die for second i am also apart of a group of heros that keep the world safe third my older brother would be very upset with me."Nicole was shocked to hear that derik had a family but she got too tired to talk so she laid down on Derik she quietly said "i can't believe that i am being helped by death"she slowly fell asleep.Despite derik still releasing an aura of death there was also an aura of a genuine person who wants to take care of them which unconsciously made her relax to the point where she could easily fall asleep.
