• There was blood on James’ hands as he dropped his father’s dead body to the floor. His mother lay a few steps away, strangled to death.

    “Excellent James...” The voice in his head said.
    “Now we will...” He was interrupted by a loud explosion... The house shook, and plaster fell from the roof.
    “A massive power outbreak... So there is another one...” the voice said.
    “James, head to Perth, Western Australia, that is where the source is... It’s time to finish this...”
    With a wicked laugh, James flew off to confront the other devil child...

    Jamie was in a paddock near his school. He wasn’t sure what he’d done. He’d just wanted to strangle the bully not kill him. Where was Connor? He hadn’t been seen since Melvin’s death... Suddenly, the voice took control.
    “Jamie, I sense another devil child, he is called James Baker. To complete the devil cycle, you must destroy him, then his power will be yours. You will be the strongest being on the planet, just from draining his powers...
    Suddenly there was a massive gust of wind, and the grass from the paddock was stripped away, leaving a barren wasteland. There in the dust, stood James. “It’s time to end this Jamie...” James said.
    “So brother, you have returned from hell,” Jamie said... “Let’s end this”...
    Suddenly there was a massive Lightning strike as the two Devils unleashed massive energy waves from their hands. Both attacks were cancelled out. James lunged at Jamie, knocking him to the ground. He started to punch him, but Jamie was able to kick him off with immense strength, before blasting him with a fireball. Blood was dripping from Jamie’s mouth and his eye was cut, but he stood up without much effort. Suddenly, unexpectedly, James flew up into the air, laughing.
    “Dammit! He got away”! Jamie snarled.
    Suddenly the sky shook, and a massive lighting wave rushed at Jamie.
    He couldn’t avoid it.
    “Noooo!” The Devil screamed in agony.
    Jamie was himself again, but his life was draining.
    James picked Jamie up...
    “Heh, it’s over weakling...” He kicked James to the ground again, before flying away with a wicked laugh.
    Jamie was on the verge of death. There was a high-pitched ringing in his ears and there was a haze of blood clouding his vision.
    Then Connor was there...
    Through the haze of red, Jamie could just make out Connor’s figure, but a brilliant white light surrounded him.
    “Come Jamie, it is time to go.”
    “Connor....Is that you? Jamie whispered.
    “Yes... It’s time to go Jamie.”
    “Go... Where?”
    “To a place where the Devil will never be able to reach you”.
    The last thing Jamie remembered was Connor lifting him up into the sky, knowing he was safe, before his life was drained completely.

    As for James, he was never able to break free of his Devil because he became mad with power. He destroyed his school and killed his own parents, and that can never be atoned for...
