Chapter 2 - Part 3/4

(Part 3)

Chaos: A corruptive, fiery, and explosive energy that only belongs to one.

Makeshift was speechless staring at the demon in front of him. His skin was brown, imp type, with dark brown horns, a sharp tail, and red eyes. He looked at Makeshift, and grinned menacingly.

Makeshift took a step back as he tried to slowly get away. The demon shot crimson flames from his mouth which had surrounded Makeshift. He had no where to run, or hide. He saw the demon walk through the crimson flames still holding his menacing grin. Makeshift made his fire blade to defend himself. The demon looked at it then laughed, and made a crimson flame blade twice the size of Makeshift's.

He told Makeshift to make the first move, seeing how scared he was. Makeshift stood in fear knowing any move he make would result in death. He felt out matched, and over powered by his presence alone. He fell to his knees, and deactivated his fire blade. He looked up, and saw the demon aiming his flame blade at him. He asked who he was, and Makeshift told him his name. The demon then asked why was he here. That purgatory was no place for demons like him. Makeshift responded that he was sent here to retrieved some devil bones.

That response shocked the demon, and cause him to laugh. He deactivated his flame blade, and began to walk towards the crimson flames. Makeshift got up, but was confused by the situation. The demon started to absorb the flames around them. He introduced himself stating that his name was Rex, and he was the demon of chaos. Makeshift was lost for words. Rex then told Makeshift to follow him, and welcomed him to purgatory.

(Part 4)

Devil Bones: The devil was killed, and his skin burned in flames with only his bones remaining for unknown purposes.

As the two were walking Makeshift asked about Rex's fire, how it was darker, and different. He replied in an annoyed manner that it was chaos energy, and it's not really fire. Makeshift then asked where they was going. Rex responded that if he asked another question he would kill him. Makeshift was silent to the response, and continued to follow.

On the way to their destination Rex asked Makeshift why he was sent here. Makeshift was confused, and didn't have an answer. Rex told him it's because he was too scared to stand up for himself. That his demon friends sent him here to die. Makeshift knew deep down, but he felt like he didn't have a choice at the time. Rex laughed then told him he should've killed them on the spot. Suddenly, Rex had stopped turning around stating that they have arrived.

Makeshift looked up to see a wall of bright fire. Makeshift was confused, asking where they were. Rex sarcastically tells him that he should know. That he was sent all this way for this specific reason. This is where the devil bones are. Makeshift stared speechless at the flames. Suddenly his arm was grabbed by Rex as he ran towards the wall while laughing. Makeshift panicked, screaming for his life. His closed his eyes as they approached accepting his fateful demise.

His eyes open as he realizes they made it across. Makeshift was surprised he wasn't harmed, but felt slight burns. Rex told him to relax, and that he's stronger than he thinks he is. Rex was about to mention something else, but noticed Makeshift's expression. He was at a complete lost of words looking at the size of the devil's hand. Not even realizing that the skeleton itself was even bigger.
