Creatures of the Light

                Another bright morning. Same as yesterday. Everyone’s favorite type of day. Except a few odd people. Including me. Those people don’t know what’s so bad about a nice warm day do they. Every single human being in this world has their mentality stuck on one thing. Dark is bad, light is good. It’s a pity that they don’t know that a good looking day is not only nice for humans, but for them demons as well.

                Demons. Creatures not of the dark, but of the light. They strike when you least expect it. Corrections. They don’t strike, they leech on. And they strike when there are no eyes to see, no ears to hear. Millions of them walk on the streets. Invisible to the human eye. But not mine. I have been gifted by God with this eye. The eye to see them. Though born with one eye, it’s more than enough for me to fulfill my destiny. A Peacemaker.

                Peacemakers are people who possess special abilities, you could say, to detect and kill demons. No, demons are not like what normal people think. These demons are different. When they strike, they do not kill. They become like a parasite and the human, host. They acquire the knowledge of their host and act identical to the host. But on a bright sunny morning, they multiply. Though only giving birth to two offspring at a time, they are still highly dangerous. For what reason you may ask. Well, if I told you Osama bin Laden was a demon how would you react? Not to mention many other famous terrorist or murderers. Jack the Ripper, Sweeney Todd barber. You name that person, it was a demon.

                Is there a chance of a host to fight back? Yes, most people fight back. But what happens is not pleasant. The effects are the reason why songs like Hold On by Good Charlotte exist. If a demon can’t have total control over the host, they kill that host and themselves. No, they don’t kill the host. They MAKE the host kill themselves. But a demon is not able to live without its host. Thus they will die as well. But it is their belief that if total control is not theirs, than it is better to not exist. Yes, you could say that they are control freaks.

                Peacemakers can kill demons without hurting their host. Even before it leeches on, if seen by a Peacemaker, consider them dead. We have special weapons customized by God himself to hunt down these creatures. Mine would be the fingers on my left hand. Grab them, and they will die before my very eyes. Not the coolest of weapons, but if it works, then it’s more than enough.

                Anyways, as I was saying, it’s a bright morning. Time for me to do what I must do.
