Chapter 9 - Man of honor? or Demon monster?

Back in Limbo.

Khalid appeared to be sitting in a desert with black sand instead of regular brownish sand. He stood up and looked around before stating "Ya allah, can this get any worse?" and as if the universe was punishing him, he gets bitten by a snake with bloodshot eyes, white skin and scars riddling its body.

The snake dug its fangs deeper into his left foreleg making him [scream!] out in pain before it let go, spitting out clear liquid. The whole scene was strange and horrifying to witness. And then, the snake turned to ash and scattered in the wind leaving Khalid questioning his sanity "What the fuck was that?! Did I hit my head or something?! ×looks at the wound but there wasn't any on his left foreleg even though he felt the pain× Have I finally lost whatever mind I had left?" Then he appeared to be inside a room with serene lights and an empty whiteboard in front of him? Okay, this is weird (is that so? Do you realize that you wrote that?) yeah, I do! But it's still weird to read man, jeez.

When he looked around, he saw no one but himself. The room itself was drenched in water that smelled like tears. And before he could inspect the walls with his fingers, a voice stated "God damn! ×Khalid turns towards the voice× Took you long enough to get here boy! If I had to wait any longer, I probably would have taken over your body!" "w-who are you!? Why do y-" Khalid asked before he was interrupted by the mysterious figure standing in front of the white board with a wicked smile and dark red skin along with a mischievous tail that kept moving like a snake slithering in the sand "I am your ×takes a long sip from the coffee mug that appeared in his left hand× Sin, boy. A bunch of demons made manifest in your little human psyche where we combine along with your strongest emotion to make ×drum roll sounds from behind it× Me! Or should I say us? Never understood why you humans concern yourselves with whether you're singular or plural, honestly? I don't much care for what you do end up calling me, as long as you tell me your name", Khalid stared at the demon standing before him then he said, "okay, that's... a little unbelievable" "you fought against a man who can move faster than a bullet, you got eaten ALIVE by some hot chick whose the size of King Kong's pinky toe. Not only that, but I saved you from dying twice so far. How do you explain any of that? Logic? Math? Fate maybe?" The demon retorted causing Khalid to actually truly believe what he had done and experienced thus far is nothing short of miraculous.

After a good minute, He stands up and tells the demon "My name is Khalid, Khalid Mohammed Saeed AL-Otaybe." The demon laughed at him, making Khalid confused because he thought this is what he wanted from him. "You're funny boy! Hahahahahaha! You almost broke my funny bone! ×stops laughing suddenly and acts serious× seriously, what is your name boy?" "That IS my name! what else could there be to it? You asked for my name, so I gave it to you! Now tell me what the FUCK is actually going on with me!" Khalid angrily exclaimed before the demon stood up and off the chair it appeared to sit on for some odd reason and tried to punch him only for Khalid to grab its fist mid punch and punch its forearm, breaking it with a loud [CRACK!] noise!

The demon nonchalantly fixes its arm saying, "you punched me like you're my god damn grandmother ×looks at Khalid whose eyes were starting to change pinkish red× PUNCH ME LIKE YOU MEAN IT BOY!" before it kicked Khalid in the stomach, hard causing him to puke out a black liquid out of his mouth that oozed onto his bare feet. Meanwhile the demon was just looking down on Khalid as if he was better, as if he's stronger, as if he had ALL the power!

That made Khalid snap and caused his eyes to pop and be replaced by better and more animalistic eyes. His pupils were gone, leaving only bright red dominating his whole eye.

That's when he roared like a wild animal right before he pounced on the demon that kept saying "YES! TELL ME! WHAT IS YOUR NAME BOY!?" but all Khalid did was maul his face off and eat the demon's arm, taking big bites out of it before waking up to Katherine's arm in his mouth and her other arm trying to punch him in the ear.

She shouted at him "GET OFF ME YOU SAVAGE! ×punches him on the ear some more× OR I'LL KILL YOU RIGHT NOW!". That made him look a little disheartened, as if he wanted to finish his meal but was being stopped by Kathrine's words, then Ellis came out the cockpit stating "both of you, stand up straight" that command made Kathrine stand up with her arm still in Khalid's mouth as he tried to get his teeth out of it, but he was having trouble getting his mouth to open wide enough to let her arm out

Ellis saw them and was secretly watching them through cctv cameras placed in the corners of the chamber, she was watching them for a while and was trying to figure what exactly was happening to Khalid. He looked feral and his eyes were full red with black blood leaking from them like tears.

Katherine told Ellis "GET THIS FILTHY SAVAGE OFF OF ME!" to which Ellis responded with "how about a deal instead? I get this man off you, and you tell me all you know about this Sophia character" Katherine wanted to reject her stupid deal but the pain in her right arm is starting to get worse as Khalid unintentionally sunk his teeth in further, almost to the bone! causing her to let out a silent cry that is filled with anger and the inability to do anything but accept this stupid harlot's offer. She agreed "FINE! JUST ×tears up a little× GET THIS DISGUSTING THING OFF OF ME!" Ellis looks at her then states "You're not saying please? How very rude, maybe you deserve to get eaten after all" before turning her back to Katherine who started feeling her wound wasn't healing which made her panic and shout while crying "PLEASE! GET HIM AWAY FROM ME! HE IS GOING TO KILL ME!".

Ellis started turning into this animal like form, she first grew a small goat tail and goat horns (ossicones) before her pupils changed from vertical to horizontal pupils. Aside from those features, she remained the same, feminine body and short white hair and pale skin.

She stated before releasing a type of cloud from the pores on her body "I would suggest holding your breath but that would be preventing the inevitable." she started walking towards Khalid who's now salivating while looking at Ellis who in his mind looked like the most beautiful person he had ever laid his eyes on. she asked him nicely as she put her hand on his head and caressed his hair "Relax, you are safe here. Listen to my voice and let your mind be at ease" her words made him feel safe, but his instinct was saying something else. He was given clear instructions by that demon "you have the power to resist this lustful man, he's just trying to hold you down. You are too strong for that boy." Which made him let go of Katherine's arm and push Ellis away from him as he held his head while [SCREAMING!] in pain

Khalid moved around erratically while [ROARING!], he felt so much mental pain that he ran past Ellis who ordered him "STOP!" before he tried his best to open the door of the plane that leads out and into the air.

He kept trying to open it before being ordered by Ellis who sternly stated, "stop acting like a wild dog who hasn't been let outside, and start being human again!" to which Khalid replied "لا استطيع التحكم بنفسي! انا خاف من ان اوذي اي احد" which meant that he can't control himself and he doesn't want to hurt anyone. Ellis slowly closed the distance between them telling Khalid "You will not harm me, otherwise you would have torn me asunder instead of pushing me away a moment ago" Khalid banged his head against the door repeating the word "leave" as he dented the solid metal door.

Ellis was running out of options, and she couldn't let him open that door and kill everyone in the plane. So, she ordered Kathrine who was bleeding from her forearm where Khalid had bitten her "Talk to him, perhaps your love can soothe him" Kathrine snaps at her "I DON'T LOVE THAT MAN! I NEVER DID AND NEVER WILL! JUST LOOK AT WHAT HE DID TO ME! ×shows her the bite she got from him and how badly it's bleeding× THAT STUPID REBEL SHOULD DROP DEAD WHERE HE IS! I HATE HIM!" Ellis calmly clicks a button on her earpiece and states, "Call Peterson Dragon".
