Thomas Wilkins and the Maid

Earth became a planet of inhabitation for the human race, along with the humanoid beings in the year 2000. So the humanoid beings started to coexist with the humans, also became familiar with all of their rules so they don’t do anything wrong. The same year, a man named Thomas Wilkins was born. And 5 years before that, his sister Chelsea Wilkins was born. 10 years after Thomas’ birth, his parents died in a car accident. Chelsea moved out of the house and bought herself a new place to stay.

The very next day, a girl appeared in front of his house and asked if he needed any help with food or anything and Thomas let her in. She became his maid and her name is Claire Simon. Claire is the heiress to the Simon Familia (a mafia family). But Thomas doesn’t figure that out till 3 years passed. Thomas was kidnapped by a criminal organization called Psycho Saber. Psycho Saber kidnaps the weak and turns them into monsters.

But Psycho Saber didn’t have a chance to do that because Claire followed them from underneath their car. Claire walked into the organization with a gun and started shooting every person she saw and the boss of Psycho Saber asked, “What is going on out there? I hear screams coming from every direction.”

The executioner answered, “We have an intruder sir. Just one that is.”

The boss said, “Kill him.”

The executioner said, “Yessir.”

As soon as he got to the door, Claire shot a hole through the door and it hit the executioner right in between the eyes and the executioner collapsed and the boss saw that and started running away and yelled, “Kill that person.”

Claire opened the door and said, “I’d like to have my master back.”

Everyone heard that and asked, “Who would that be?”

Claire looked at the chair and aimed her gun at them and started shooting at them and they shot at her and they missed every bullet and Claire hit them all and the boss escaped her wrath and Claire ran over to chair and saw that Thomas was asleep and said, “You were asleep the entire time. I guess that I’ll take you home now.”

Thomas heard that and asked, “Is it morning yet?”

Claire heard that and said, “You were awake.”

Thomas said, “Nope, I was asleep. I just woke up. Where am I and why am I locked up on this chair?”

Claire answered, “You were kidnapped by a criminal organization.”

Thomas said, “I see.”

He looked around and saw blood, bodies, and guns laying everywhere and screeched and said, “Blood. How in the world aren’t you scared of this stuff?”

Claire answered, “I’m used to it. Let’s get you out of here before anymore of them come here.”

Thomas said, “I’d love to. But I’m kinda stuck here.”

Claire uncuffed him and Thomas stood up and they started running out of there and some guards appeared with guns and started shooting at them and Claire grabbed Thomas and started running on walls and started shooting at them and Thomas saw that and said, “You gotta be kidding me. You are evil.”

Claire said, “I’m Claire Simon, the heiress to the Simon Familia. A mafia family.”

Thomas heard that and looked at her and asked, “What have I got myself into?”

Claire laughed and they appeared outside and put him down and ran to a car and Claire said, “Let’s go home, sir.”

Thomas said, “Yep.”

Claire entered the car and drove away and as soon as they got home, Thomas went to his dresser and got dressed for school.

3 years after that incident, Thomas was 16 and was in high school in Japan. They moved from Atlanta, Georgia to Tokyo, Japan. As soon as Claire bought them a mansion and Thomas was a 1st year in high school. As well as Claire. As soon as they got to Namisori Academy in Tokyo, the bell rang and all of the students went to class and as soon as they got to class, Saya Ono asked, “Are you 2 new to any of the schools here in Tokyo?”

Thomas answered, “Yes. We just moved to Japan this year.”

Claire said, “We’re from the United States. Even though I’m from France. Then went to the United States. Now I’m here.”

Saya said, “I see. You 2 are great together.”

Thomas said, “You really think so. I think that she’s really annoying.”

Claire said, “Don’t say that. I have feelings too ya know.”

Thomas said, “It seems that she’s right.”

Saya said, “It seems that you really don’t care.”

Thomas said, “It seems that way, but I do care.”

Claire whispered, “He really doesn’t care.”

Saya laughed and said, “You truly are a funny one.”

Thomas said, “Yes she is.”

Claire said, “Thank you. The best thing that he’s said to me since we got here.”

Thomas said, “Wake me up when it’s time for class.”

The bell rang and they said, “It’s time for class.”

Thomas heard that and said, “Damn. I knew that I should have slept. But who cares. It’s time for class.”

The teacher walked in and said, “Welcome to another year of school everyone. I’m your teacher, Yuriko Shiba. And I’ll be your teacher for the rest of the year. I wish you all luck and we’ll be counting on you to make this school the best in Japan.”

Thomas heard that and Claire whispered, “That’s not going to happen. Thomas is here.”

Saya said, “That’s harsh.”

Claire said, “Yes it is. But it’s true.”

Saya sighed and Yuriko said, “Well, let’s start off with attendance. And tell us what you like to do.”

Claire heard that and sighed and when she called Thomas’ name, he stood up and said, “I’m Thomas Wilkins. I love American Football. I played for 5 years. I’m now into magic.”

Everyone heard that and said, “Magic, do you mind showing us some magic? Are you any good at it?”

Thomas smiled and looked at them and Yuriko asked, “Would you like to show some magic?”

Thomas walked forward and answered, “Sure thing.”

Claire heard that and looked at him and as soon as he got to the front of the class, he showed them his hands and then created a ball out of them and started moving them around and everyone saw that and then Thomas lifted his left hand up and a small cat appeared and it meowed and Thomas smiled and Yuriko said, “So cute. What is it?”

Thomas answered, “A cat.”

Thomas put his left hand back on top of his right hand and started moving it around again and then lifted it again and the cat appeared in the regular size of a cat and everyone started cheering for him and Claire saw that and asked, “Where did you learn how to do magic?”

Thomas answered, “TV.”

Claire heard that and Thomas fell backwards and started floating and everyone saw that and asked, “Is he touching the ground?”

They went to look and saw that he was levitating over the ground and said, “Amazing.”

Thomas stood up and walked back to his seat and Yuriko said, “You are an amazing magician.”

Thomas said, “Thank you ma’am. I can do a lot more, but I rather not.”

Yuriko said, “Smart thinking. Let’s begin class then.”

Everyone nodded and Claire asked, “When did you really learn magic?”

Thomas answered, “Never.”

Claire laughed and then the Student Council President appeared and Thomas put his hand by her mouth and Claire looked and Thomas took it away and the Student Council President said, “Welcome to Namisori Academy everyone. We are glad to have you here. If you went to the Opening Ceremony, you know who I am. If you didn’t, I will introduce myself to you now. I’m Yumiko Konda, the Student Council President. It’s nice to have you all here at our school. We wish to become number 1. If possible that is.

Thomas looked at her and Yumiko looked at him and winked and Thomas saw that and Claire said, “Don’t be flattered now Thomas.”

Thomas smiled and said, “I’m not flattered.”

Yumiko said, “Well, see you all later.”

She left and Yuriko smiled and said, “She’s one good student. She loves winking at men. She might try seducing you in the hallway men. So be on guard.”

Thomas heard that and Claire said, “Yep, I already see it happening to Thomas in my head. He’ll enjoy it.”

Yuriko heard that and Thomas sighed and said, “Don’t listen to her.”

It was lunch time and the bell rang and everyone started walking out of their classrooms and Claire asked, “Are you going to get school food or starve till you get home?”

Thomas answered, “I would like to starve. But I’ll have school food for once.”

Claire said, “OK. Let’s go then.”

They stood up and walked out of their classroom and Yumiko appeared behind him and Thomas turned his head and Yumiko grabbed his head and kissed him and stopped walking and Claire saw that and said, “Hold up now, Thomas isn’t yours. He’s mine.”

Thomas heard that and Yumiko moved her head back and said, “Hm, you’re a good kisser, Thomas. Have you kissed a girl before?”

Thomas answered, “Nope. And if I have, I don’t know anything about it.”

Yumiko asked, “Have you ever kissed a boy before?”

Thomas answered, “Nope. I’m not gay.”

Yumiko laughed and said, “Let’s eat together.”

Thomas looked at her and said, “I’m afraid that I’m eating with her.”

Yumiko asked, “How about we eat together then? My treat.”

Claire said, “OK.”

Thomas said, “As long as I’m not paying, I’ll be happy.”

Claire nodded and Yumiko said, “OK. I’m paying.”

They started walking away and Yuriko smiled and said, “So she was after you, Thomas. What’ll happen next?”

They appeared in the cafeteria and Thomas looked at the menu and said, “Ramen is good enough for me.”

Claire said, “Same for me.”

Yumiko said, “3 Ramens.”

Thomas said, “Mine is chicken.”

Claire said, “Beef.”

Yumiko said, “Chicken as well.”

The lunch lady heard that and said, “3 different orders at the same time.”

Yumiko said, “It’s all in one buy. I’m paying.”

The lunch lady laughed and said, “You are at it again.”

Yumiko said, “Not at all. I’m just enjoying life here.”

The lunch lady said, “Yeah, this isn’t the first time you bought someone a lunch.”

 Yumiko smiled and said, “I love men. What else could I say?”

Thomas answered, “That you love women. Then you would be on the same page as her.”

Claire heard that and said, “No. I love men and to prove that, I slept with you plenty of times. And kissed you while you were sleeping.”

Thomas said, “See, I just got mind blown. Wait, you did what now?”

Yumiko heard that and started laughing and said, “I love this man. He’s totally hilarious.”

The lunch lady put the food in front of them and they carried it to their classroom and Yuriko saw them and Thomas sat down in his seat and looked at the food and Claire asked, “What are you going to do Thomas?”

Thomas answered, “Eat. I’m starving.”

Thomas started eating and Claire saw that and Yumiko asked, “What did you mean by “What are you going to do?” It seems that you have other plans to talk about.”

Claire answered, “There’s a man trying to kill him. And he’s just sitting around waiting for his death.”

Yumiko laughed and said, “I doubt that.”

Thomas looked at Claire and said, “Do not mention death while I’m eating. And for your information about this man that wants me dead. Just leave him be.”

Claire heard that and said, “You gotta be kidding me.”

Thomas said, “Shut up and eat.”

Yumiko heard that and said, “So you really are wanted dead.”

Thomas smiled and said, “Yes I am. This person has been after me for about a month now.”

Yumiko said, “If you ever need help, just ask me.”

Thomas heard that and Claire said, “You would help us.”

Yumiko said, “Him yes, you no.”

Thomas laughed and then continued to eat and Claire said, “That’s not funny Thomas.”

Saya said, “I’m afraid that it is. She definitely said fu.”

Claire grinned and said, “Stop trying to translate. You are the worst translator in the world.”

Yumiko said, “I did say fu, but in different words.”

Claire said, “Don’t be on her side.”

Thomas said, “I’m starting to like her.”

Yumiko heard that and Claire said, “No. You need to change your mind.”

Thomas asked, “Why?”

Claire answered, “I’m the one that cares about you and your wellbeing.”

Thomas said, “Yeah, I know that. And she’s also a piece of work. But I love it.”

Claire smiled and the Student Council Vice-President appeared and said, “Ma’am, why are you here?”

Yumiko answered, “Eating lunch with some new friends.”

She heard that and said, “What about the council meeting with the other schools?”

Yumiko asked, “What about it? I never went to any of them anyway. Neither have any of the other Student Council Presidents.”

She heard that and said, “But this one is about a serial killer that is on the hunt. A person that’s been hunting students and is still hunting.”

Thomas heard that and looked at Claire and Yumiko looked at them and said, “I have to go.”

Thomas finished eating and Claire saw that and asked, “Are you ok Thomas?”

Thomas answered, “Nothing’s wrong.”

Claire said, “I doubt that Thomas.”

Yumiko said, “Serial killer, huh. Let’s go.”

Thomas looked at her food and took it and started eating it and Claire said, “You totally are evil. Eating another person’s food.”

Thomas said, “It’s just sitting there. Someone has to eat it.”

Yuriko sighed and asked herself, “What’s next?”

The bell rang for the end of the day and Claire looked at Thomas and Thomas said, “If you need me Claire, I’ll be on my way home.”

Claire heard that and said, “OK. I’m gonna go shopping.”

Thomas said, “Thank you.”

Thomas walked home and Claire went to the nearest store to buy food for the house.

While Thomas was walking home, he said, “Is this really the way home? All I remember is going straight for about 40 blocks. Then turned right. Which means that I have to walk another 30 blocks and turn left.”

As soon as he got half way, a masked man appeared with a gun and Thomas looked at him and said, “Oh shit. I was right. I’m next.”

The masked man said, “You must be the pervert Thomas Wilkins.”

Thomas said, “I’m not a pervert. Who the hell are you?”

The masked man answered, “I’m the man that killed 40 students. You will be my 41st victim.”

Thomas said, “I see. I was right. I am next.”

The masked man said, “You already said that.”

Thomas put his hands into a ball and started moving them around and the masked man asked, “What are you doing?”

Thomas answered, “Nothing. Just waiting.”

He asked, “What are you waiting for?”

Thomas answered, “For someone to either help or for you to shoot me.”

The masked man heard that and said, “You really are dumb.”

Thomas lifted his left hand a little and then felt a metal ball appear and then put his left hand back on top of his right hand and continued moving it around and the masked man said, “OK, enough of this. It’s time for your demise.”

Thomas heard that and looked at his hand and then he pulled the trigger and a bullet flew toward him and Thomas lifted his hand up and a big metal ball appeared and Thomas moved it to his heart and the bullet hit the metal ball and Thomas smiled and the masked man heard that and grinned and pulled the trigger another 3 times and Thomas heard that and moved the ball around and stopped the 3 bullets and the man tossed the gun away and took a knife out and Thomas grinned and looked at the metal ball and brought it behind him and the masked man laughed and asked, “What is your weak ass capable of? You can’t even throw a baseball.”

Thomas threw it as hard as he could and the masked man saw that and moved out of the way and Thomas appeared behind him by a snap of his fingers and the masked man saw that he disappeared and Thomas kicked the back of his legs and the masked man fell and said, “Shit. I didn’t see that coming. You completely got me.”

While they were fighting, a Nine-Tailed Fox started running toward there location with a bunch of Humanoid Hunters and Thomas swung at the masked man and the masked man took a gun out and shot him in the fist and Thomas felt that and grinned and jumped back and said, “Son of a bitch.”

The masked man said, “You made a huge mistake.”

Thomas looked at the metal ball and Thomas snapped his fingers and turned into a tiger and Thomas whistled and the tiger ran toward him and the masked man saw that and said, “You gotta be kidding me. This is your fighting style. You pussy ass human.”

Thomas smiled and said, “It gets the ladies.”

The masked man heard that and said, “Well, I guess that you are a pervert.”

He started shooting at the tiger and the tiger dodged each bullet and as soon as the tiger got close to him, he tossed the gun and went to stab the tiger, but Thomas snapped his fingers and appeared in front of the knife and caught it and said, “Hey now. Harming a tiger isn’t cool bro.”

The masked man said, “You could even switch with a tiger.”

Thomas said, “I create items out of metal. As long as I touch them beforehand, I can switch to wherever I want.”

The masked man grinned and Thomas started his attack and the masked man grinned and started getting injured and Thomas karate chopped his neck and the man collapsed and said, “It can’t be. I lost to a kid.”

The Nine-Tailed Fox appeared and Thomas looked at her and the tiger went to attack her.

The Nine-Tailed Fox

The masked man grinned and Thomas started his attack and the masked man grinned and started getting injured and Thomas karate chopped his neck and the man collapsed and said, “It can’t be. I lost to a kid.”

The Nine-Tailed Fox appeared and Thomas looked at her and the tiger went to attack her. Thomas looked at the tiger and then saw it running toward her and Thomas snapped his fingers and the tiger disappeared and the Nine-Tailed Fox looked at him and asked, “Are you a Humanoid Hunter?”

Thomas answered, “Nope. I’m only a normal human being. Plus a student no less. The name is Thomas Wilkins. Why are you running?”

She answered, “I’m a Nine-Tailed Fox as you can see. Us humanoid beings are being hunted by Humanoid Hunters. You seem like a nice man. Unlike everyone else.”

Thomas looked at the knocked out man and said, “I wouldn’t say that. But who cares? Let’s get you out of here.”

The Nine-Tailed Fox heard that and looked at him and Thomas picked up a pebble and asked, “Could you throw?”

The Nine-Tailed Fox asked, “What type of throw are you talking about?”

Thomas answered, “There’s only one type of throw in my book. Like throw a ball.”

The Nine-Tailed Fox heard that and said, “Oh, not with my arms, but with my tail, yeah.”

Thomas said, “I see. I need you to throw this pebble all the way down there. Well, as far as you possibly could. Then we’ll make a run for it.”

The Nine-Tailed Fox heard that and asked, “How?”

Thomas answered, “You’ll see.”

Thomas handed her the pebble and she tossed it up and swung her tail at it and the pebble disappeared and Thomas saw that and asked, “Do you have good hearing?”

She answered, “Yes I do. You want me to tell you when it hits the ground.”

Thomas answered, “Yes I would.”

They waited and then the Humanoid Hunters started to appear and yelled, “Get back here you fox. You will not live to see another day.”

She heard that and Thomas said, “They surely are mean.”

The Nine-Tailed Fox said, “I know. It hit the ground as soon as you said that.”

Thomas put his arm around her neck and snapped his fingers and they switched with the pebble and the Nine-Tailed Fox saw that and Thomas pulled her into an alleyway and she saw that and asked, “What are you doing?”

Thomas answered, “Helping you out. So don’t worry about a thing. I won’t let you die.”

She heard that and then a man with a gun appeared in front of them and Thomas looked ahead and said, “Shit.”

Thomas tossed a pebble up on to the roof of the building and snapped his fingers and the Nine-Tailed Fox disappeared and Thomas smiled and said, “I feel like an idiot.”

The Nine-Tailed Fox looked at Thomas and asked, “What are you doing?”

Thomas answered, “Good question. Just get out of here.”

The Humanoid Hunter looked at him and said, “You dare let her escape.”

Thomas asked, “Why do people hate humanoid beings? It’s just sad.”

The Nine-Tailed Fox ran away and the Humanoid Hunter looked at Thomas and asked, “Why are you allowing her to escape? She’s not human.”

Thomas said, “And? She isn’t human. She’s actually a Nine-Tailed Fox. And she’s amazingly hot.”

The Humanoid Hunter said, “You gotta be kidding me. She’s a monster.”

Thomas said, “I bet that she is. It really doesn’t matter to me.”

He heard that and said, “You gotta be kidding me, kid. You are willing to protect the Devil if you have to.”

Thomas answered, “Actually, yes I am.”

He heard that and pulled the trigger and Thomas snapped his fingers and appeared behind him and the Humanoid Hunter asked, “Where did you go brat? You are hiding somewhere. I know that for a matter of fact.”

Thomas kicked the back of his leg and then the man turned his head and Thomas kicked him in the face and the man collapsed and Thomas looked at him and went to kick him when he heard a gunshot and disappeared. They saw that and asked, “Where’d he go?”

The Nine-Tailed Fox appeared in front of the store that Claire was shopping at and asked, “Is this far enough? I hope that they don’t follow me. I hope that he’s ok.”

Claire heard that and stopped and asked, “Who is ok?”

The Nine-Tailed Fox answered, “He said that his name was Thomas Wilkins. I could take you there. But I really don’t want to die.”

Claire heard that and said, “There’s no need to take me there. Just tell me where you last saw him.”

The Nine-Tailed fox answered, “In an alleyway fighting one of the Humanoid Hunters.”

Claire heard that and said, “Shit. Thank you.”

She started running and the Nine-Tailed Fox saw that and grinned and lifted her up and flew to their destination and Claire asked, “What are you doing?”

The Nine-Tailed Fox answered, “Helping you get to your destination. Even though he told me to run. I rather see him alive than me.”

Claire heard that and said, “Shit.”

Thomas smiled and said, “This is not fun at all.”

The Humanoid Hunter said, “Stop moving around kid. You will die soon.”

Thomas snapped his fingers and appeared behind him and said, “Behind you.”

The Humanoid Hunter turned around and Thomas appeared behind him and Thomas lifted his foot up and kicked him and the man fell to the ground and Thomas walked over to his head and kicked it as hard as he could. The man screamed and the Nine-Tailed fox heard that and then the group that was chasing the Nine-Tailed Fox when she found Thomas appeared and Thomas turned his head and said, “You gotta be kidding me.”

They looked at him and started shooting at him and Thomas dodged each bullet and the Nine-Tailed Fox appeared with Claire and Thomas put his arm out and Claire asked, “What are you doing?”

Thomas snapped his fingers and a stick of dynamite appeared in his hand and Thomas put his hand by the wire and then moved it down and a fire appeared and Thomas tossed it at them and they looked at it and Thomas stared at them and they yelled, “Run. Run away. Killing him is impossible.”

Thomas looked at them and smiled and disappeared and teleported to the dynamite and Claire saw that and while they were running, Thomas attached the dynamite to one of the Humanoid Hunters’ shirt and said, “Have fun now.”

Thomas started running and the Nine-Tailed Fox stared at him and Thomas smiled and the dynamite blew up and Thomas snapped his fingers and appeared in front of them and said, “It seems that you came back. And you brought Claire. Smart thinking even though I never told you about her.”

Claire said, “I found her in front of the store that I went shopping in.”

Thomas snapped his fingers and the bags appeared in his hands and said, “Well, let’s go home.”

Claire said, “You could put me down now.”

The Nine-Tailed Fox let go of her and she fell to the ground and the Nine-Tailed Fox put her arm around his arm and Thomas saw that and said to himself, “Not another girl. This is getting worse.”

Claire grinned and went on to the other side of him and put her arm around his arm and Thomas sighed and said, “Now that you are here, Claire. I can finally get home. And I met the serial killer.”

Claire heard that and asked, “What happened to him?”

Thomas answered, “Knocked him out with ease. But he shot my fist.”

Claire asked, “Are you ok?”

Thomas answered, “I’m fine.”

The Nine-Tailed Fox heard that and asked, “How were you capable of dodging the bullets of those Humanoid Hunters?”

Thomas answered, “Magic. That’s all that I could tell you.”

The Nine-Tailed Fox heard that and said, “I see. Thank you for protecting me.”

Thomas smiled and said, “No problem.”

Claire said, “You are too nice to people.”

Thomas said, “I wouldn’t say that. Look at all of those bodies.”

The Nine-Tailed Fox said, “I’m Kelly Todd, by the way.”

Thomas said, “It’s nice to meet you Kelly. Just tell me where I am because I’m lost.”

Claire answered, “We’re almost home.”

Thomas heard that and said, “Good. All of that teleporting wasn’t for nothing. It actually worked out quite well.”

Kelly smiled and said, “Well, what type of house do you live in?”

Claire answered, “A mansion.”

Thomas said, “We’re kinda rich.”

Claire said, “We are rich.”

Kelly said, “I see.”

They appeared in front of the mansion 10 minutes later and everyone looked at him and Thomas said, “Let’s enter the house.”

They said, “OK.”

They walked in and Thomas looked around and said, “Goodnight.”

He walked to bed and Kelly heard that and Claire asked, “Are you hungry, Kelly? I just bought some food. So it should last us awhile.”

Kelly answered, “Yeah. Anything will do.”

Claire said, “OK.”

Claire walked to the kitchen and started cooking. Kelly walked to the kitchen table and sat there and 20 minutes later, the food was done and Claire made two plates and put it on the table and said, “There you go.”

Kelly looked at it and started eating it and said, “It’s good.”

Claire said, “Thank you.”

3: The Head of the Simon Familia
The Head of the Simon Familia

The very next morning was a Saturday. As soon as Thomas woke up that morning, he felt that somebody’s skin was touching his body and he turned his head and saw Kelly laying there next to him and said, “She slept with me, huh.”

Claire said, “Good morning sir.”

He heard that and turned his head the other way and saw her next to him as well and said, “Oh shit.”

Claire asked, “What’s wrong? You look like you’ve seen a ghost.”

Thomas answered, “You don’t usually sleep with me, Claire.”

Claire said, “I won’t lose to a Nine-Tailed Fox.”

Thomas smiled and said, “You don’t want to lose to a Nine-Tailed Fox for what?”

Claire answered, “Love.”

Thomas heard that and looked at her and said, “Seriously.”

Claire sat up and Thomas looked at her body and saw that she was naked and he turned his head toward Kelly and she was naked as well and he put his head straight and Kelly woke up and said, “Good morning.”

Claire said, “Good morning.”

Kelly heard that and asked, “Why are you in his bed?”

Claire answered, “To declare my love to him.”

Kelly said, “And I declare my love to him now.”

As soon as she got close to his face, Thomas put his hand out and Kelly moaned and Thomas looked at his hand and saw that he was grabbing her breast and then took his hand off and said, “I’m sorry.”

Kelly blushed and said, “I-I-I don’t mind if it’s you.”

Thomas heard that and jumped out of bed like a frog and noticed that he was naked and said, “You gotta be kidding me. You stripped me down as well.”

Claire said, “Yes I did.”

Thomas sighed and walked to his dresser and then took out some clothes and Kelly said, “You have any clothes for me to wear.”

Claire answered, “Yep. Come to my room and I’ll let you borrow some clothes, so we could go shopping to get you some clothes.”

Thomas smiled and said, “Smart thinking Claire.”

Claire said, “Thank you.”

Thomas said, “No problem.”

Kelly smiled and they walked to her room and then someone knocked on the door and Claire asked, “Will you answer the door for me, sir?”

Thomas answered, “Yep. I was planning to in the first place because I’m the only one dressed.”

He walked to the door and the doorbell rang and Thomas said, “I’m coming. Calm your damn nipples.”

He got to the door and then the person outside aimed a gun at it and Thomas opened it and the person shot him in the arm and Claire heard the gunshot and ran down the stairs and Thomas looked at his arm and then looked at the person and asked, “Who are you?”

The person answered, “I’m the head of the Simon Familia. Also Claire’s mother.”

Thomas said, “Man, you people are always so damn impatient.”

Claire appeared naked and asked, “What happened?”

Thomas answered, “Nothing happened. Your mother is here.”

Claire heard that and her mother said, “You’ve become quite the beauty since the last time we met, Claire.”

Claire said, “Mom, what are you doing here?”

Thomas said, “Come on in. You shouldn’t be out there all by yourself. You know that it isn’t safe. People kill each other a lot over here.”

Her mother said, “I know. May I come in?”

Thomas said, “I already said that you could. Does anyone in your damn family listen to people?”

Claire answered, “Nope.”

Thomas said, “That’s why she shot me in the arm.”

Claire said, “She did what now.”

Thomas said, “I shouldn’t have said that. She takes that personally.”

Her mother said, “I know. She’s been writing to me for a while now. She always talks about you.”

Claire said, “Good things, right mom?”

Her mother said, “Really good things.”

She walked inside and Thomas closed the door and asked, “What brings you here?”

She answered, “Get dressed idiot.”

Claire heard that and said, “Sure thing.”

Claire ran back up the stairs and her mother said, “Sorry about the bullet in your arm. It took you too damn long to get to the door.”

Thomas said, “I was getting dressed.”

Her mother said, “I see. I’m Suzanne Simon. Claire’s mother and she is my first daughter.”

Thomas said, “You have more than one daughter.”

Suzanne answered, “Yep. I’m in a mafia kid. I’ve fucked many men. But then met the man that I loved and had loads of children with that man. 10 daughters and 15 sons.”

Thomas heard that and said, “Shit. That’s a lot of children. I only have a sister. But haven’t seen her in a very long time. Probably the same amount of time that you haven’t seen Claire.”

Suzanne said, “I see. That would be about 6 years then.”

Thomas said, “I believe that would be the case. Well, what brings you here?”

Suzanne answered, “Is it wrong if I can’t see my daughter?”

Thomas answered, “Not at all, Mrs. Simon. By the way, I’m Thomas Wilkins.”

Suzanne said, “I know. I heard that you rescued a Nine-Tailed Fox.”

Thomas said, “Yep, I did. She’s getting dressed with Claire right now.”

Suzanne said, “I see. So she doesn’t have her own clothes yet.”

Thomas said, “She just got here yesterday. That’s when I saved her.”

Suzanne said, “I see. Well, I was wondering if you’d take care of something for me.”

Thomas heard that and said, “If it’s a baby, then get out of here.”

Suzanne laughed and said, “It’s not a baby, Thomas. That I promise you. It’s something that a lot of people wants to steal.”

Thomas heard that and asked, “What would that be?”

Suzanne heard that someone was coming down the steps and asked, “Do you have anywhere private that we can talk?”

Thomas sighed and answered, “Nope.”

Claire appeared and said, “I’m back mom.”

Thomas asked, “Did you lend her some of your clothes?”

Claire answered, “Yep. She’s on her way down here.”

Thomas said, “That’s good. Then we’ll shop for clothes for her later today.”

Claire said, “Yep.”

Suzanne said, “It’s good to see you again. Have you seduced him yet?”

Thomas answered, “Yes. Many times.”

Suzanne smiled and hugged him and said, “Thank you very much.”

Claire said, “Now it’ll be harder to do that.”

Suzanne asked, “Why?”

Thomas answered, “The Nine-Tailed Fox that I saved is also after me for love.”

Suzanne smiled and said, “Lucky you. You truly are fit to be in the mafia.”

Thomas heard that and said, “Oh, hell no.”

Suzanne laughed and Claire said, “You are already involved with the mafia, Thomas.”

Thomas said, “Yeah, I know. And it’s all your fault.”

Claire smiled and said, “Not at all. You are the one that let me into your house.”

Thomas said, “That was before I knew that you were in the mafia.”

A voice appeared saying, “Give him the orb.”

Suzanne heard that and Thomas looked at her and Claire asked, “What is that?”

Thomas answered, “Go make us some coffee.”

Claire heard that and said, “But the voice.”

Thomas said, “Coffee.”

Claire said, “OK. Don’t be so bossy.”

Thomas looked at her go and said, “She’s got a nice ass.”

Suzanne said, “She gets it from me. Let’s get down to business, shall we?”

Thomas answered, “Sure thing.”

She took out the orb and said, “Here you go. It’s a Magic Orb. There are 5 of them in the world and you need to collect them all.”

Thomas looked at it and asked, “Why would I want to do that?”

The Magic Orb answered, “It’s the source of your magic. If they are destroyed, you will no longer be capable of using magic. Meaning that you’ll be weak for the rest of your life.”

Thomas said, “I see. So do you know where the other 4 are?”

The Magic Orb answered, “Yes I do. And they are all far apart. One is in the United States, France, China, and Australia.”

Thomas said, “In all the continents except for South America.”

The Magic Orb said, “Yep. I’m afraid so.”

Suzanne said, “It’ll be a hard battle for them, Thomas. They are all protected by magic wizards. 3 of them to be exact.”

Thomas said, “So 3 are protecting each orb. Then how’d you get your hands on this one?”

Suzanne answered, “Someone gave it to me. Don’t know who, or why. But he/she is planning something.”

Thomas said, “I see.”

He put the Magic Orb away and Suzanne asked, “Do you mind if I stay the night, Thomas?”

Thomas answered, “Not at all. You have luggage, right?”

Suzanne answered, “Yep. It’s outside.”

Thomas heard that and said, “OK then, let’s get it inside.”

Suzanne said, “OK.”

Suzanne took Thomas to her car and opened the trunk and Thomas grabbed her bags and closed the trunk and Thomas said, “Let’s go.”

They walked into the house and Thomas said, “Follow me.”

Suzanne said, “OK.”

Thomas walked up the stairs to the guest room and Suzanne asked, “Where are you taking me?”

Thomas answered, “The guest room. So when you are tired, you’ll know where to go.”

Suzanne said, “Oh, that makes sense.”

They entered the guest room and Suzanne said, “This is amazing. You are prepared for company.”

Thomas said, “We always are. Plus, we love parties. We invite people here to party like every Saturday, but today I’m not feeling too well. So no party today.”

Suzanne said, “I see.”

Thomas said, “Well, I think that you’ll love it here. And so does Claire.”

Kelly walked out of Claire’s room and said, “These clothes fit quite well.”

Suzanne heard that and asked, “Would that be the Nine-Tailed Fox?”

Thomas answered, “Yep.”

Kelly heard that and Thomas put her bags down and Kelly walked into the room and asked, “Who are you?”

Thomas answered, “This is Claire’s mother.”

Kelly heard that and said, “Oh, hello Mrs. Simon.”

Suzanne said, “Hello Nine-Tailed Fox.”

Kelly said, “Oh, I’m Kelly Todd.”

Suzanne said, “Oh, ok Kelly. How old are you Thomas?”

Thomas answered, “16 years old. You?”

Suzanne answered, “39.”

Thomas heard that and said, “39 years old with 25 children. What the hell.”

Suzanne smiled and said, “I already told you that I love sex.”

Kelly heard that and Suzanne said, “Well, let’s wait for the coffee to be done.”

Thomas said, “Sure thing.”

The serial killer appeared outside of Thomas’ house and knocked on the door and Suzanne said, “I’ll open it.”

Thomas said, “Don’t go near the door. I got this.”

Claire ran to the door and Thomas saw that and Thomas snapped his fingers and Claire appeared by her room and she ran into her door and collapsed backwards and Thomas said, “Sorry about that.”

Thomas walked down the steps and then the serial killer rang the doorbell and Thomas said, “You people are so damn impatient.”

Suzanne laughed and as soon as Thomas got to the door, the serial killer aimed his gun at the door and pulled the trigger and it hit his stomach and Thomas felt that and opened the door and said, “You need to learn to let me get to the damn door. Who are you and what the hell do you want with me?”

The serial killer answered, “I came for revenge.”

Thomas heard that and said, “Oh, you are the serial killer that kills students for a living.”

Thomas jumped back and the man pulled the trigger and Suzanne aimed her gun at him and Thomas ran toward him and the bullet flew right passed his head and Thomas tackled him outside of his house and Saya saw that and Thomas stood up and the serial killer smiled and aimed his gun at him and Thomas looked at it and kicked his hand and the man lifted the gun up and pulled the trigger and the bullet flew into the air and hit a bird and it fell to the ground and Thomas saw that and put his hand out and the bird flew toward him and then Thomas put his hands over it and started moving them around and the serial killer said, “I, Freddy Graves, wants his revenge on you.”

Thomas heard that and he aimed his gun at him again and Suzanne ran out there and the bird turned into a dragon and Thomas put it down and said, “Enjoy.”

The dragon roared and Freddy saw that and started shooting the dragon, but the bullets bounced off of the dragon and flew all over the place and Thomas saw Saya there and Thomas snapped his fingers and appeared where Saya was and Saya appeared behind the dragon and the bullet hit his head and Thomas collapsed and the dragon bit Freddy’s arm off and Freddy screamed and Thomas laid there and Suzanne saw that and ran toward him and asked, “Are you insane?”

Thomas’ eyes were closed and Saya started crying and Thomas opened them and sat up faster than he usually would and Suzanne saw that and said, “Impossible.”

The wounds started to heal and Saya saw that and the dragon continued to attack him and then Freddy yelled, “I give up.”

Thomas snapped his fingers and the dragon swung at his head and knocked him out and then he disappeared and Thomas said, “Sleep for another couple hours.”

Suzanne looked at him and Thomas said, “Call the police already. Serial killer found."

Suzanne looked at him and Claire ran toward Thomas and dropkicked him and Suzanne said, “He saved your life and you end up dropkicking him.”

Claire asked, “What are you talking about?”

They pointed at Freddy and Claire said, “Oh. My bad.”

Saya said, “You truly have strong legs.”

Suzanne said, “That runs in the family.”

Thomas sat up and said, “Damn that hurt.”

Claire heard that and said, “You are still awake.”

Suzanne said, “Killing him is harder than you think, Claire. Shooting him in the head won’t kill him.”

Thomas smiled and stood up and Claire heard that and looked at him and Thomas snapped his fingers and switched places with her and walked into the house and the Magic Orb asked, “Do you feel the power of the orb?”

Thomas answered, “Yes I do.”

The Magic Orb said, “When you collect all five Orbs, you’ll be capable of using devastating magic that might change the fate of the world. And you’ll easily defeat your enemies. I guarantee you that.”

Thomas said, “So I need to search for these four Orbs and bring them back here? Or do I need to do something to them? I’m lost here.”

The Magic Orb said, “I’ll tell you as soon as you collect all five of them. You already got one of five. Just need four more.”

Thomas said, “Understood.”

The Magic Orb said, “Right now, your magic won’t be strong enough to defeat the magicians. But with this orb, you will train to learn what magic is inside of this orb. And when you master it, we’ll head on our little journey to Hell.”

Thomas asked, “Is that what this operation is called? Operation Hell, to get the Magic Orbs.”

The Magic Orb answered, “Actually, yes. You truly are smart.”

Thomas said, “Not at all. That was just a lucky guess.”

The Magic Orb said, “I see. You have luck on your side then.”

Thomas said, “I guess that I do.”

Claire walked inside and said, “Oh yeah, the coffee is done.”

Thomas heard that and asked, “Would you like some, Mrs. Simon?”

Suzanne answered, “Yes I would.”

Kelly said, “Me too.”

Thomas said, “Make 4 cups of coffee.”

Saya said, “Oh Claire, are you going to go shopping with me today, as we promised yesterday?”

Claire answered, “Yep. A friend will also be joining us.”

Kelly waved and Saya said, “Awesome, a Nine-Tailed Fox.”

Kelly said, “Kelly Todd is the name.”

Thomas said, “Take good care of her.”

Saya said, “OK.”

Claire made 4 cups of coffee and walked to the living room and handed everyone a mug and Suzanne tasted it and said, “Hm, you really do make good coffee, Claire.”

Claire said, “Thank you mom.”

Saya heard that and said, “Oh, that’s your mom. She’s really pretty.”

Suzanne said, “Thank you. Who is she?”

Thomas answered, “Our friend, Saya Ono.”

Suzanne said, “Nice to meet you, Saya.”

Saya said, “Likewise.”

Kelly and Claire finished their coffee early and Claire said, “Let’s go Kelly. We’re going to go shopping.”

Thomas heard that and looked at Suzanne and said, “Oh boy.”

They left and went shopping. Suzanne said, “We finally got some alone time. Now tell me, how has she been treating you, Thomas?”

Thomas answered, “She’s been treating me quite well. And I love messing with her. It’s a win-win situation.”

She laughed and said, “By the way, when are alone, please call me Suzanne. I don’t like being called Mrs. Simon.”

Thomas said, “OK Mrs. Simon.”

Suzanne heard that and said, “I told you not to call me that.”

Thomas said, “See my point. It’s fun messing with people. They get angry for a stupid reason like that.”

Suzanne heard that and said, “I see. That’s why you are annoying.”

Thomas said, “Exactly.”

Suzanne said, “Well, good night.”

Thomas smiled and said, “OK.”

She grabbed his head and kissed him on his lips and Thomas felt her lips against his lips and Suzanne backed away with a smile and said, “You really are a good kisser.”

Thomas looked at her in shock and Suzanne walked to the guest room and closed the door and Thomas looked at the tv and asked, “What the hell is going on here?”

The Magic Orb answered, “She loves you sir.”

Thomas said, “I know that already. She really kissed me man.”

The Magic Orb asked, “Who kisses better? Claire or Suzanne?”

Thomas answered, “No question about it. Suzanne. She has had more experience.”

The Magic Orb said, “I knew that you were going to say something about that. Well, make yourself something to eat. They might not be back for awhile. You know how women are.”

Thomas said, “Yep. I know how they are. Shop 24/7.”

The Magic Orb said, “Yep. Eat, then start training.”

Thomas walked to the kitchen and started making himself eggs and bacon for breakfast and 5 minutes later, his food was done and then Thomas put it on a plate and eating it. After he finished eating, he walked to his basement and started training for the rest of the day.

4: The Head of the Bael Clan
The Head of the Bael Clan

As soon as Claire and Kelly got home, Claire said, “Sir, we’re home. Mom, we’re back.”

No one answered her and Kelly said, “Maybe no one is home.”

Claire said, “They are here. But they are just hiding.”

Thomas walked up the steps and locked the basement door and Claire asked, “Are you here, sir?”

Thomas heard that and answered, “Yep. I’m in the back.”

Claire heard that and asked, “What are you doing back there? Where’s mom?”

Thomas answered, “She went to sleep early. She must have been tired after that long trip here.”

Claire said, “You have a point.”

Thomas walked to the living room and asked, “What time is it?”

Kelly answered, “10 p.m. What were you doing back there?”

Thomas answered, “I was in the basement working out. The more I work out, the stronger my magic gets.”

Kelly said, “I see.”

Thomas said, “Also meaning that I would be capable of using it for longer periods of time.”

Claire said, “I see.”

Kelly asked, “How long have we been gone?”

Claire answered, “About 6 hours.”

Thomas said, “It was actually 8 hours. You left a 2 p.m. Your mother came at 12 noon. Saya arrived at 2 p.m.”

Claire said, “Oh, you’re right. You must be hungry.”

Thomas said, “I am. But I’m going to take a shower first.”

Claire said, “OK. Today you are eating spaghetti and meatballs. Do you have any problems with that, sir?”

Thomas answered, “Not at all.”

Thomas walked to his room and Claire asked, “Would you like to help me, Kelly?”

Kelly answered, “I’d love to help out.”

Claire smiled and said, “Let’s go then.”

They went into the kitchen and washed their hands. Then started boiling water. As soon as Thomas got to his room, he noticed that Suzanne was in his room and said, “You gotta be kidding me.”

Suzanne said, “Sleep with me honey.”

Thomas walked to his dresser and took out some clean underwear and shorts and walked to the bathroom and put his clothes down on the sink and then walked to the closet and grabbed a towel and walked into the bathroom and put that on the sink as well and got undressed and put the dirty clothes into the hamper, then entered the bathtub and turned on the cold water and said, “The water feels so nice.”

10 minutes later, Suzanne woke up and said, “It’s time for me to go to the bathroom.”

She stood up and walked to the bathroom and entered it and closed the door and Thomas heard that and slowly moved the curtains and saw her and then put it back and asked himself, “What the hell is she doing? Wait, I forgot to close and lock the door. Son of a biatch.”

She saw that there were clothes and a towel on the sink and asked, “What is that doing here? You should be more careful with this orb, Thomas.”

Thomas heard that and said to himself, “Just let me take a shower in peace. Please leave.”

She unzipped her pants and pulled it down and Thomas heard that and Suzanne then pulled her underwear down and then sat down on the toilet and started pissing in the toilet and Thomas heard that and Thomas said to himself, “You gotta be kidding me. This is hell.”

A minute later, she stood up and lifted her underwear up and then her pants and then flushed the toilet and Claire heard that and said, “She woke up.”

Kelly said, “Your mom.”

Claire said, “Yep.”

Suzanne walked to the sink and moved everything from the sink and started washing her hands and Thomas said to himself, “You gotta be kidding me. Damn you, Mrs. Simon. You are worse than your damn daughter.”

As soon as Suzanne finished washing her hands, she lifted the Magic Orb up and the Magic Orb said, “Put me down.”

Suzanne heard that and said, “You actually like it in here.”

The Magic Orb said, “Master is in the shower.”

Suzanne heard that and the Magic Orb asked, “Can you not hear the shower running?”

Suzanne walked to the curtain and opened it and Thomas stared at her and Suzanne looked at his body and said, “Nice body.”

Thomas said, “Get out of my bathroom.”

Suzanne said, “But I just got in.”

Thomas said, “I don’t want to yell. Please get out of the bathroom.”

Suzanne said, “You wouldn’t yell at me.”

Thomas said, “OK. You are forcing me to yell.”

Suzanne said, “You won’t do it.”

Thomas yelled, “Get out of the damn bathroom already dammit. You are starting to piss me off. Can I ever take a shower in peace?”

Suzanne heard that and put the Magic Orb down and said, “I’m sorry that I made you mad. I’ll leave now.”

Thomas said, “Thank you.”

She exited the bathroom and Kelly said, “He snapped.”

Claire said, “Yes he did.”

Suzanne walked down to the kitchen and sat down and Claire asked, “Are you ready for some spaghetti and meatballs, mom?”

Suzanne answered, “Yeah.”

Claire said, “Don’t feel so down, mom. He yells at me all the time. He doesn’t like to have his shower interrupted.”

Suzanne said, “I see.”

Kelly said, “He yells at you all the time.”

Claire said, “Yes. Sometimes at night, I kinda sleepwalk into the bathroom while he’s taking a shower. He yells at me and I cry a little bit. But he’s been warming up to me now.”

Thomas stepped out of the bathtub and turned the water off and looked for his towel and clothes and said, “Magic Orb, where’d my clothes and towel go?”

The Magic Orb answered, “She took it away.”

Thomas heard that and opened the door and said, “Mrs. Simon, where’d you put my towel and clothes?”

Suzanne had them in her hands and answered, “They are in the closet.”

Thomas heard that and walked to the closet and then someone knocked on the door and everyone heard that and Thomas said, “Someone get the door.”

He opened the door to the closet and looked for his towel and clothes and then said, “It’s not here.”

He grabbed a towel and wrapped it around himself and then the person knocked on the door again and Thomas said, “No one is getting the door.”

He walked down the stairs and as soon as he got to the door, Claire went running toward the door and rammed Thomas into the door and Thomas laid there and Claire saw that and the person asked, “Are you alright in there?”

Claire heard that and said, “This is bad. I injured him.”

Thomas rolled out of the way and Claire opened the door and said, “Sorry about the wait.”

Thomas said, “I just took a shower too.”

Claire said, “I’m sorry sir.”

The girl looked at them and said, “Um, is this Thomas Wilkins’ house?”

Thomas stood up slowly and tossed a rock at the back of Claire’s head and Claire hit the edge of the door with her head and she fell backwards and then Thomas picked up the rock and tossed it into the kitchen and snapped his fingers and she appeared in the kitchen and Thomas opened the door completely and saw a girl with horns above her head and black wings on her back and said, “Um, I’m Thomas Wilkins. You came at a very bad time.”

She said, “I noticed that sir. Do you mind if I come in? It’s kinda chilly out here.”

Thomas said, “You are right. Come on in.”

She entered the house and Thomas closed the door and Suzanne asked, “Who is it?”

Thomas said, “Man, give me my damn clothes back.”

Suzanne said, “Nope. They smell so good.”

Thomas said, “Shit, follow me.”

The girl said, “Sure thing.”

They walked into the living room and Thomas said, “Welcome to my version of what I call Hell. And it’s only for a day, so that’s good too.”

She smiled and said, “Well, it’s nice to finally meet you. I’m looking for a magician that could entertain my daughter in the Underworld for a day.”

Thomas said, “I have tomorrow off. By the way, what do you mean by ‘in the Underworld,’ anyway?”

She answered, “I’m Barbara Bael, the head of the Bael Clan in the Underworld. Also the Queen of the Underworld. My daughter loves magic and is willing to pay you handsomely if you do a good job.”

Thomas heard that and said, “Queen of the Underworld. Daughter likes magic. Why come to me?”

Barbara answered, “My daughter is in the same class as you. She saw you make a cat out of a metal ball.”

Thomas said, “It was a rock. Would you like me to show you some magic?”

Barbara answered, “Yes.”

Thomas took out a small rock and held it out and said, “I only use rocks. Don’t know why, but it always works, for me that is. What is your daughter’s name, by the way?”

Barbara answered, “Her name is Cascadia Bael and is one of three daughters. One is a Satan and is the oldest. Cascadia is the middle child and my youngest is only in middle school.”

Thomas said, “I see.”

He put his left hand over the rock and his right hand and started moving it around and Barbara looked at his hands move and then he lifted his left hand up and a small cat appeared and it meowed at her and Thomas smiled and Barbara said, “That’s so cute. But could you make it bigger?”

Thomas put his left hand over the small cat and started moving it around again and said, “Let’s see if I could or not.”

While he was moving his hand around, Claire woke up and said, “The food is done, sir.”

Thomas heard that and then lifted his hand up and then a full-sized cat appeared and it meowed and Barbara started petting it and said, “You know what, I think that Cascadia will love you. In a very good way.”

Thomas heard that and said, “You are making me feel uneasy here. But hell, I’ll accept your request. Just tell me this one thing.”

Barbara asked, “What is it?”

Thomas asked, “If I enter the Underworld, am I capable of leaving it?”

Barbara answered, “Yes. My daughters do it all the time. So the answer to your question is yes. What time do you want me to pick you up?”

Thomas answered, “5 p.m.”

Barbara heard that and said, “OK then, Thomas. I’ll be here at 5. You better be ready.”

Thomas said, “I will. Do you want the cat?”

Barbara answered, “Nope.”

Thomas snapped his fingers and the cat disappeared and Thomas said, “OK. Well, see you at 5. I’ll be waiting.”

Barbara stood up and said, “OK. See you around.”

She exited the house and Thomas walked to the kitchen and said, “Sorry about that, Claire. You kinda of pissed me off. Just like your damn mom here.”

Suzanne smiled and Claire said, “No, I deserved it. I accidentally ran you into the door.”

Thomas said, “That is true. I’m ready to eat.”

Everyone heard that and sat down at the table and made themselves a plate of spaghetti and meatballs.

5: Thomas Shows Magic to Cascadia Bael
Thomas Shows Magic to Cascadia Bael

The next morning, Thomas woke up on the floor of his bed and said, “This ain’t cool. I’m not even in my bed.”

The Magic Orb said, “That’s because the bed doesn’t fit 4 people.”

Thomas heard that and stood up and saw that the 3 of them were on his bed and said, “Oh, this is sad.”

He stood up and walked to the dresser and got dressed and said, “My damn head hurts.”

Then Claire woke up and said, “Good morning, Thomas.”

Thomas said, “Good morning, Claire. Now get out of my bed now and make me breakfast. I’m not in a good mood this morning.”

Claire heard that and asked, “Why aren’t you in a good mood this morning?”

Thomas answered, “You 3 took over my bed, while I slept on the floor. Now I have a headache and my neck hurts. So work or get out of the house.”

Claire said, “If I leave, you 2 will be homeless.”

Thomas heard that and looked at her and grinned and Thomas walked out of his room and as soon as Claire got to the door, Thomas shut it in her face and Claire bounced backwards and said, “You gotta be kidding me. You are so mean to me.”

Thomas opened the door and walked away. Claire saw that and Claire walked toward the kitchen and started making eggs and bacon for breakfast and said, “He really needs to be nicer to me. But why is he so mean? He used to be nice to me.”

Thomas heard that and asked, “Have I really changed that much? Maybe I’ll go buy her something. Well, after breakfast, that is.”

While she was making breakfast, Kelly and Suzanne woke up and asked, “Why are you in Thomas’ bed?”

Kelly answered, “I love him more than you.”

Suzanne said, “I saw him naked while taking a shower.”

Kelly said, “Slept next to him naked.”

Suzanne said, “And? We kissed while you were at the mall.”

Kelly grinned and said, “You got me there, but you are a sex crazed lady.”

Suzanne said, “You just want to sleep with him.”

Kelly said, “That’s actually a good thing. You just want to have sex with your daughter’s boyfriend.”

Suzanne smiled and said, “You might be right.”

The food was done and Claire yelled, “The food is done. Come on into the kitchen to eat.”

They heard that and Thomas walked into the kitchen and sighed and said, “I apologise for the way I acted toward you. I just have a headache that is devastating.”

Claire heard that and looked at him and hugged him and Thomas smiled and then as soon as Kelly and Suzanne got to the kitchen, they saw that Claire and Thomas were kissing and Suzanne said, “But they’ve been getting it on for a long time now.”

Kelly saw that and said, “Let’s just make ourselves a plate and then eat somewhere else.”

Claire said, “There is no need.”

Thomas snapped his fingers and the food appeared on the table and everyone sat down and said, “Thank you.”

Thomas smiled and said, “Eat up.”

Suzanne said, “You are in a good mood.”

Thomas said, “Wrong. I’m not in a good mood at all. I woke up on the floor this morning. My neck hurts and I have a damn headache. So sit down and eat.”

Claire said, “There you go again. Snapping at people for no reason at all.”

Thomas heard that and started eating and Kelly said, “We’re sorry for letting you sleep on the floor.”

Suzanne said, “We truly are.”

Claire said, “No, they aren’t.”

Thomas said, “Well, I really don’t care this time. Just never let me sleep on the floor again.”

They said, “Yessir.”

6 hours and 50 minutes later, someone knocked on the door and Claire walked to the door and opened it up and Barbara said, “Hello, I’m looking for Thomas. I’m here to pick him up.”

Claire said, “He’s not home at the moment. He went to the store. He’ll be right back.”

Barbara heard that and asked, “Do you mind if I come in and wait for him?”

Claire answered, “Not at all. Where will you be taking him?”

Barbara answered, “The Underworld.”

Claire heard that and her jaw dropped and Thomas appeared by the front door and saw her and said, “I forgot that it was almost 5 p.m.”

He walked toward the door and looked at where she was and tiptoed his way into the house saw that Claire was in the kitchen making dinner and Thomas walked there and Claire said, “Oh sir, you have a visitor.”

He heard that and Barbara looked at the door and said, “Oh, you arrived. Are you ready to go to the Underworld? My daughter is waiting.”

Thomas smiled and said, “I’ll be ready soon. Just let me do something and then I’ll come.”

Barbara said, “OK.”

He walked into the kitchen and Claire asked, “What did you need to do?”

Thomas smiled and took out a bag and then took out roses and said, “Here you go, my love.”

Claire heard that and took out the flowers and put them in a vase and put water in them and hugged him and Thomas hugged her back and said, “I’m not that mean. I planned this after breakfast.”

Claire heard that and said, “Thank you, sir.”

Thomas said, “Stop calling me sir. Thomas is good enough.”

Claire heard that and said, “OK Thomas, by the way, Kelly went to Saya’s house.”

Thomas said, “OK. Thank you for telling me.”

He walked to the living room and said, “OK. Let’s go.”

Barbara heard that and said, “So you are ready to go.”

Thomas said, “Yep.”

Claire said, “Take care.”

Thomas said, “Yep.”

Barbara grabbed his arm and then placed a portal on the ground and they entered it and appeared outside of Bael’s Castle and said, “Welcome to my castle, Thomas. This is the Bael’s Castle. There are other castles as well, but I don’t own them. I only own this one.”

Thomas said, “I see. Well, it looks nice.”

Barbara smiled and said, “Thank you. We do our best to keep it in good condition. Let’s head on in.”

Thomas said, “OK.”

As soon as Barbara opened the door for them to enter the castle, the maids and butlers appeared and Thomas looked at them and they said, “Welcome back, milady.”

Barbara said, “Thank you everyone. Thomas meet most of the maids and butlers. They protect the main entrance as well as my family.”

Thomas said, “I see.”

Barbara said, “You are a man with few words.”

Thomas said, “I’m afraid so. This is a new environment for me. So I have a right to have very few words.”

Barbara said, “I bring people here all the time. But they weren’t very good magicians. But when Cascadia saw you do magic, she just wanted to see more.”

Thomas smiled and said, “She’s overexaggerating. I’m not that good. It’s a work in progress.”

Barbara asked, “Is that so?”

Thomas answered, “Yep. It’s a work in progress.”

Barbara said, “So you are training to become a better magician.”

Thomas said, “Yep. I was born with the ability to use magic. So I’m training to become the best. And to do that, I’m going to be searching Earth for the remaining Magic Orbs that I don’t have. Defeat the magicians that are protecting the Magic Orbs and then take them and run.”

Barbara heard that and said, “Magic Orbs, huh. So your magic isn’t proper magic.”

Thomas answered, “Not at all. I don’t have fighting magic or skills. Just teleportation and creation magic which does all of the attacking for me.”

She heard that and said, “I see. That is sad. I’m surprised that you are still alive.”

Thomas said, “So am I, but this is only the beginning of my journey. I plan on becoming the best magician in the world.”

Barbara said, “That’s a pretty heavy goal there, kid.”

Thomas said, “I know that. And I know the risks as well. It’ll be one hell of a battle.”

Barbara said, “Yes it will. You’ll need a team to train with.”

Thomas said, “Not at all. I have my own training methods.”

Barbara heard that and then appeared outside of Cascadia’s room and knocked on the door and said, “Sweetheart, you have a visitor.”

Cascadia heard that and said, “Hold up please. I’m not ready yet.”

She heard that and said, “Man, I told you to get ready for him 10 minutes ago. What is taking you so long?”

Cascadia answered, “Nothing. I was just playing chess with Megara.”

Megara Bael, a Devil said, “I’m beating her.”

Cascadia said, “Stop bragging dammit.”

Megara said, “She can’t play chess for life.”

Thomas smiled and said, “You truly have a hilarious family.”

Cascadia heard that and said, “He’s here. He actually came.”

Megara said, “Come on in. She’s been waiting for you.”

Barbara heard that and opened the door and said, “We’re coming in.”

Cascadia heard that and Thomas walked in behind Barbara and Cascadia looked at them and Thomas saw that she was in her swimsuit and said, “Nice swimsuit.”

She heard that and said, “Thank you.”

Thomas took out a rock and lobbed it toward the table and Megara looked at the rock and went to pick it up, but Thomas snapped his fingers and switched positions with the rock and said, “Please don’t touch my materials that I use for my magic.”

He then looked at the chess board and saw that Megara’s King was being blocked by 2 pawns, the queen, and a bishop and then looked at the other end of the board and saw that the queen was faced in front of Megara’s King and said, “Actually, Cascadia isn’t losing. She actually beat you already.”

They heard that and asked, “What are you talking about?”

Thomas answered, “I analyzed the board as soon as I teleported here. Cascadia’s queen is facing your king piece. Your king piece is unable to move to safety because you have 2 pawns, your queen and your bishop blocking your king’s escape. She got you and that’s checkmate. You lose.”

Megara heard that and looked at her queen piece and said, “Oh shit, he’s right. I lost.”

Cascadia said, “Thank you for confirming it, Thomas. It’s my first time beating her after 3,000+ tries.”

Thomas smiled and said, “No problem.”

Cascadia said, “I’ve been waiting to see your magic again. It was so beautiful on Friday. You made a cat appear from a rock.”

Thomas said, “Yes I did. I could also create other animals. But let’s see what happens if I try to make something else.”

Thomas clapped his hands and then pulled his arm away and panda panties appeared and Cascadia saw the panda’s on the panties and grabbed it and started rubbing it against her face and said, “It’s still got that new clothes smell.”

Thomas smiled and then clapped his hands again and pulled his hand away and a bra appeared with panda’s on it and she grabbed that and well and asked, “Do you mind if I change into it while you are still doing magic?”

Thomas heard that and answered, “I’m afraid that I do mind. But I don’t want you to be sad, so I will watch you strip and I’ll do my magic.”

Cascadia said, “You are such a gentlemen. You admit that you don’t want me to be sad, but also don’t want to stare at me at the same time. I don’t actually blame you.”

Thomas said, “Thank you.”

Megara said, “Stop flirting.”

Thomas said, “She’s flirting, not me.”

Barbara said, “Keep going Thomas.”

Thomas said, “Sure thing.”

He took out a pebble and put it in his hands and then put pressure on the rock and then lifted his left hand up and a blue jay appeared and flew around his body and they saw that and Cascadia started getting undressed and then Thomas put his finger out and the blue jay landed on it and Thomas then moved his finger and the bird was stuck in the air and Megara saw that and said, “Impossible. The blue jays wings aren’t flapping.”

Cascadia looked at the blue jay and said, “You gotta be kidding me.”

The blue jay moved its head around and Thomas grabbed it with both hands and then pulled another blue jay out of the first one and Thomas smiled and then made an X shape across his chest and the birds climbed his shoulder and they saw that and then Thomas looked at them and then grabbed a piece of paper from his pocket and then swiped his finger against his shirt and a small fire appeared and Thomas lit the paper on fire and then it turned into a small birdcage and Thomas looked at it and smiled and then created another one like he did with the blue jay and then made another X shape across his chest and the blue jays entered the bird cages and they said, “Amazing. You have total control over the birds.”

Thomas said, “Wrong. They are just like normal birds, but they normally wouldn’t listen to me.”

Cascadia asked, “Could we keep one of them mom?”

Barbara answered, “I’m afraid not sweetie. By the way Thomas, I thought that you said that you couldn’t use physical attacks.”

Thomas said, “I can’t.”

Barbara asked, “What are you talking about? You just created a fire with your body. You could use that to attack people.”

Thomas said, “Wrong again my friend. That fire is magic that helps me with my magic tricks.”

Barbara heard that and Thomas said, “I have no physical skills like you people. But I am capable of taking quite the beating though. Especially a bullet to the head.”

Megara said, “A bullet to the head.”

Thomas put his hand over his forehead and then started moving his fingers around and then brought his hand down and they saw the bullet hole and said, “You gotta be kidding me.”

Thomas said, “I’m not kidding you. By the way Mrs. Bael, you are the only person that would wait for me to open the door. Claire’s mother shot me in my arm. Then some criminal shot at me. It’s pissing me off. But you on the other hand changed that completely. By waiting for someone to come to the door.”

Barbara said, “I see.”

Thomas snapped his fingers and the bird cages disappeared along with the blue jays and then took out a pebble and put his left hand over it and said, “This is going to be my last trick for today. OK.”

Cascadia said, “One more after this one, then you could be done.”

Thomas heard that and said, “OK. Deal.”

Thomas lifted his left hand up and a baby panda appeared and Thomas said, “Baby panda.”

Cascadia saw the baby panda and grabbed it and said, “You have to let me have this. I’ll take care of it.”

Barbara said, “Nope. If you want the baby panda, you could go to Thomas’ place to play with it.”

Cascadia heard that and said, “Please take care of him.”

Thomas said, “It’s a her. And I rather not have another mouth to feed in the house.”

Cascadia said, “That’s so mean.”

Thomas said, “But, because you love panda’s so much, I’ll be willing to make an exception.”

Thomas smiled and said, “My last and final trick that I’m going to show you.”

Megara looked at him and then Thomas took out a piece of paper with a 10 letter word on it. The word is ‘redisplays’, but in all caps. He showed it to Megara and Cascadia and said, “Mrs. Bael, I’m going to need to stay on this side so the magic trick works.”

Barbara sid, “OK. I’ll stay by your side.”

Thomas said, “OK. You ladies see a 10 letter word, am I correct?”

They answered, “Yes.”

Thomas flipped it toward them and asked, “Do you see the 10 letters here as well?”

Barbara answered, “Yes I do. What about it?”

Thomas said, “It’s all apart of the trick.”

Thomas put it back toward them and asked, “What is the word that you see?”

Megara answered, “Redisplays.”

Thomas heard that and asked, “Are you sure that is what the word says?”

Cascadia answered, “We’re sure.”

Thomas said, “OK. That’s good.”

Thomas flipped it toward them and asked, “What do you see, Mrs. Bael?”

Barbara answered, “I don’t know what I see. It’s just 10 letters.”

Thomas said, “I see. It’s a word. But not the one we want. So I’m going to send the letters on this paper to the ceiling and then the fun part begins.”

They heard that and then Thomas flicked the bottom of the paper and the letters started to disappear and Barbara saw that and said, “Hold up now. Where are the letters going?”

Thomas answered, “I hope that you aren’t afraid of the dark. Because we’re going to need to turn the lights out completely.”

They said, “Go ahead.”

Thomas turned out the lights and Barbara closed the blinds and Thomas pointed up and they looked up and saw the letters and then Thomas showed them that the word on the paper disappeared and said, “The word is now gone. The word is up there. Now tell me if you know if that’s the word you know.”

Barbara answered, “Not at all.”

Thomas said, “OK. I’m going to ask you to tell me when to stop moving my fingers. I’m going to make the letters scramble around till a word that you know appears. And as soon as it appears, your are going to say either ‘OK’ ‘Yes’ or ‘That’s the word I know’. So let’s begin.”

Cascadia looked at him and Thomas put his hands up and then started moving his fingers and the letters started moving slowly and 6 minutes later, Cascadia said, “That’s the word I know.”

Thomas stopped and said, “Redisplays is the word that you all know. Are you sure?”

They answered, “Yes we are.”

Thomas smiled and walked over to the chessboard and said, “Come over to the chessboard.”

They heard that and then Thomas put his right hand out and then made a fist and the letters started shaking up there and they saw that and then Thomas started pulling his arm back and the letters started flying toward the table and they saw that and then Cascadia said, “You are one hell of a magician, Thomas. How’d you become so good?”

Thomas answered, “I was born with this magic. I just had to train really hard. And I’ve gotten pretty far in 16 years of my life. Am I right ladies?”

They said, “You’re right.”

The letters appeared on the table and they read it out loud, “R-E-D-I-S-P-A-Y-S. The ‘L’ between ‘P’ and ‘A’ is missing, Thomas.”

Thomas heard that and looked at the word and saw that the ‘L’ was missing and said, “You gotta be kidding me.”

Barbara asked, “Did you mess up the trick?”

Thomas said, “Let’s see if I could fix that.”

Thomas snapped his fingers and then appeared all the way at the other side of the room and the ‘L’ appeared where it needed to be and Thomas asked, “Do you see the ‘L’ now?”

They looked and answered, “Yes. How’d you do that?”

Thomas answered, “A magician never tells his secrets.”

Cascadia looked at the table and saw a Thomas there and then looked at the door and asked, “Why are there two Thomas’?”

Thomas answered, “That is for you to find out.”

Megara touched the one that was next to the table and it was paper and Megara said, “It’s paper.”

Barbara said, “No way.”

She touched it and said, “She’s right. It is paper.”

Thomas walked toward the paper version of himself and then swiped his fingers across his body and then a small fire appeared on his fingertip and he touched the paper Thomas and it turned into a dragon and they saw that and said, “Oh my, this is amazing.”

The dragon swung its tail at them, but Thomas snapped his fingers and the dragon disappeared and Thomas said, “OK. I did my magic tricks for you.”

Thomas walked toward the light switches and turned the lights on and Barbara opened the blinds and Cascadia hugged Thomas and said, “You are the man.”

Thomas smiled and said, “Thank you.”

Megara said, “Would you mind coming back to the Underworld and make a Talent Show?”

Thomas answered, “Actually, I’d love to. And the best auditions will be able to play for the Queen of the Underworld and her family.”

Barbara smiled and said, “I like that idea, Thomas. But why didn’t I think of that first?”

Cascadia answered, “Megara is always a step ahead of everyone.”

Barbara said, “I see.”

Thomas smiled and said, “Well, I’ll be taking my leave now.”

They said, “OK.”

Thomas walked out of the room with a huge smile on his face.

6: Freddy Is In the Underworld to Kill Thomas
Freddy Is In the Underworld to Kill Thomas

Thomas said, “OK. I did my magic tricks for you.”

Thomas walked toward the light switches and turned the lights on and Barbara opened the blinds and Cascadia hugged Thomas and said, “You are the man.”

Thomas smiled and said, “Thank you.”

Megara said, “Would you mind coming back to the Underworld and make a Talent Show?”

Thomas answered, “Actually, I’d love to. And the best auditions will be able to play for the Queen of the Underworld and her family.”

Barbara smiled and said, “I like that idea, Thomas. But why didn’t I think of that?”

Cascadia answered, “Megara is always a step ahead of everyone.”

Barbara said, “I see.”

Thomas smiled and said, “Well, I’ll be taking my leave now.”

They said, “OK.”

Thomas walked out of the room with a huge smile on his face. But then it disappeared and Barbara opened the door and saw that Thomas was standing out there and asked, “What was that?”

Thomas answered, “It sounded like a Glock 30. 10 bullets a clip. Who in the Underworld possesses a gun?”

Cascadia answered, “No one possesses a gun, Thomas.”

Megara said, “Meaning that the person is from Earth.”

Barbara said, “Yes. That is the meaning. And the gunshot was close by. Meaning that they are outside.”

Thomas put his hand above his forehead and moved his fingers around and then moved them down and the bullet wound disappeared and Thomas started walking to the entrance and the Devils that work for the Bael Clan said, “We can’t allow you to come any closer.”

Freddy said, “Man, you are holding a man named Thomas Wilkins here, am I correct?”

They heard that and then Zetes Kormos, a Devil and butler for the Bael Clan said, “Not at all. We don’t protect humans. We kill them. Now leave.”

Freddy said, “No can do. A friend of his named Claire told me where I could find him. She was one feisty bitch. Now come out here.”

Thomas heard that and Barbara said, “Calm down. He’s only trying to get in your head.”

Thomas heard that and looked straight ahead of him and didn’t say anything and Barbara asked, “Are you ok?”

Thomas answered, “Yes, I’m fine.”

Barbara heard that and said, “OK. Do you know that man?”

Thomas answered, “Yes I do. He’ll die today.”

Cascadia looked out of the window and saw that the Devils were collapsing one by one and said, “They are collapsing really fast.”

Megara looked outside and saw that they were falling and Freddy said, “Whatever you guys are sure are weak. Now, where is he?”

Zetes heard that and answered, “He’s on Earth. He just finished up here.”

Freddy heard that and lifted his sword up and Thomas appeared outside and looked at all of the wounded and Barbara said, “You gotta be kidding me. You took all of them out.”

Freddy smiled and said, “Thomas, people sure know how to lie.”

Thomas said, “That is because they don’t sell out their friends.”

Barbara heard that and Freddy snapped his fingers and Claire appeared knocked out and Barbara said, “Oh, maybe he wasn’t playing around.”

Thomas looked at him and Freddy said, “By the way, little girl. Who the hell are you? And why do you want to get involved in our little deathmatch?”

Barbara answered, “First off, I’m 40 years old. I’m Barbara Bael, the Queen of the Underworld. And I’m not getting involved, I’m just spectating.”

Thomas heard that and looked at her and said to himself, “You need to stop being an asshole.”

She walked in between them and Thomas looked at Claire and saw that she was on the ground still and said, “I see. You attacked my maid. But weren’t capable of killing your target, student killer.”

Barbara heard that and Cascadia looked at Freddy and Freddy took out his Glock 30 and aimed it at her and Thomas smiled and he pulled the trigger and Thomas flicked a rock at the bullet and intercepted it so the bullet wouldn’t hit Claire’s head and Thomas said, “I won’t allow her to die. If I did that, her mother would be quite upset. So would I, but not all the way. Serial killer, you came here to kill me. So aim for my head already.”

They heard that and Freddy said, “I see. You have balls. Let’s see if it’s true.”

Barbara heard that and asked, “If what is true?”

Freddy answered, “If he truly is the Demon of Earth.”

Barbara heard that and looked at him and asked, “What is he talking about, Thomas?”

Thomas answered, “Don’t know. He might be talking about one of my relatives.”

Barbara laughed and Freddy pulled the trigger and then Thomas flicked a rock at the bullet and Freddy continued to shoot at him and Thomas continued to flick rocks at the bullets and then started tossing rocks at him and Freddy moved out of the way and then Thomas snapped his fingers and they all turned into Demons and they roared and Thomas smiled and Freddy said, “Impossible. You actually planned all of this.”

Thomas answered, “Yes. I’m well-prepared to face an opponent. But I choose not to fight you with my full power.”

Thomas smiled and Freddy looked around him and saw that he was surrounded and Freddy grinned and said, “Oh well.”

Thomas said, “Tear him apart.”

They roared and started attacking him, but the attacks went through him and Thomas said, “You gotta be kidding me.”

Barbara asked, “Is he immortal?”

Freddy said, “Awaken yourself, Thomas. Murdering beast of Earth.”

Thomas heard that and Freddy said, “That’ll be the only way to stop me.”

Thomas looked at him and Freddy punched all of the Demons and they vanished and Thomas appeared out of nowhere and punched him in the face and Freddy flew back a little and Thomas said, “Nah, you really aren’t immortal. I just have to bring out all of my might to demolish you.”

Barbara heard that and Freddy stood up like nothing happened and said, “You really are weak.”

Thomas said, “Thank you for agreeing with me.”

Freddy disappeared and appeared in front of him and punched his stomach and Thomas felt that and coughed out blood and Freddy lifted him up with an uppercut and Thomas flew up and Cascadia saw him fly up with blood coming out of his mouth and said, “Thomas.”

Thomas looked down and Barbara looked at him and said, “You gotta be kidding me.”

Freddy yelled, “Activate your inner being.”

Thomas looked at him and then at Barbara and said, “This is hell.”

Freddy said, “Fall.”

Thomas flew down with immense speed and hit the ground hard causing an explosion and Freddy smiled and yelled, “Come on Thomas. Become the Demon of Magic already.”

Thomas screamed as soon as he hit the ground and Megara heard that and Cascadia looked at the window and Megara saw a heart flying toward the window and the heart shaped figure flew through the window and went toward Cascadia and hit her chest and said, “Have faith in me.”

Cascadia heard that and asked, “Who said that?”

Megara said, “No one said anything.”

Cascadia said, “I heard someone’s voice.”

Megara said, “You are hearing things.”

The heart said, “You might know me from my voice. But if you forgot, I’m getting the shit beaten out of me. But let’s just say that I think that I love you. But don’t tell Claire when you meet her again. I think that I fell in love with you because of your beautiful body. I’m bleeding like crazy and it hurts like a bitch. But I don’t want you to worry about me.”

She heard that and looked out there and the smoke disappeared and Thomas was laying there and Freddy walked over to his body and turned him over and Freddy saw all of the blood that came out of his skull and said, “You can’t be serious. I’m not even hurt. Is that all you’ve got? No wonder why you ran like a pussy the day you defeated me the first time. Second time, you had something eat my arm. And now you are dead.”

Thomas heard that and said, “I’m not a pussy. You lost twice. First time was a complete knock out. The second time was you quitting. Third time, I lose. But not for long.”

He heard that and then looked at Thomas and kicked his head and his head moved like paper and then his entire body disintegrated and Freddy said, “You gotta be kidding me. That body was a fake. Where’s the real one?”

Thomas’ hands appeared out of the ground and grabbed his legs and pulled him down into the ground and then disappeared again and Freddy tried moving and asked, “What the hell is this? Stop hiding Thomas. You truly aren’t a man that’ll become the Demon King.”

Thomas jumped out of the ground and then walked toward him and kicked his head back and Freddy screamed and Thomas looked at him and then Thomas took out a grenade and Freddy saw that and said, “No. Wait. Stop. Don’t.”

Thomas looked around him and spun his pointer finger in circles and Freddy looked at him and then all of the bodies flew toward the castle and Barbara saw that and ran toward the building and Thomas pulled the pin out and then forced it inside of his mouth making all of his teeth fall out and he screamed and then muttered the entire time. Thomas saluted him and then took a rock out and tossed it toward the castle and snapped his fingers and appeared beside Barbara and the grenade blew up and the explosion tore his body apart and then Thomas ran out there and then stomped his legs into Freddy’s legs and they flew down to the bottom of the Underworld and melted in the lava and Thomas said, “I ain’t letting you live after injuring my family.”

Barbara looked at him and said, “You fight like a monster. But are you really the Demon of Magic?”

Thomas looked at her and answered, “Not at all. I’m only a beginner in magic, I mentioned earlier. He, of course was much stronger than me. But you should never get cocky during your battle. It could bring your downfall.”

Cascadia saw that and ran outside and Thomas walked toward Barbara and said, “I want you to bring her home.”

Barbara asked, “Why me? Weren’t you leaving?”

Thomas answered, “Yes I was. But I don’t think that she wants me to leave.”

Barbara asked, “Who is she?”

Cascadia tackled him to the ground and started rubbing her face up against his face and Barbara saw that and said, “I see. That’s what you meant. Well, I’ll bring her back home. Where do I put her?”

Thomas answered, “Her room. It’s got her name on the door.”

Barbara said, “OK.”

She lifted Claire’s body up and disappeared and Cascadia looked at him and asked, “Are you hurt anywhere?”

Thomas answered, “Yes. All over. The pain from that fall was very painful. Now that my enemy is dead, what would you like? Then I will leave. We got school tomorrow.”

Cascadia said, “You are right. Let’s go to my room. And have sex.”

Thomas smiled and said, “I knew that you were going to say that.”

Cascadia asked, “How did you know that? Can you read minds now?”

Thomas answered, “Nope. That heart that was absorbed by your body combined our two hearts. So if I did die, I would have brought you with me.”

Cascadia said, “You would go that far just to be with me.”

Thomas answered, “Yes. But I didn’t die, so I now know what your heart is thinking. Let’s go.”

Cascadia stood up and put her hand out and Thomas grabbed it and she lifted him up and then they walked toward her room and as soon as that happened, Megara asked, “Are you ok, sir?”

Thomas answered, “Yes. I’m fine. In a lot of pain, but I’m fine.”

Cascadia grabbed her and shoved her out of her room and said, “See you later.”

Megara heard that and Cascadia closed the door and took off her bra and panties and walked toward him and took his clothes off and Thomas felt that and smiled and said, “So you literally meant it.”

Cascadia said, “Yep.”

Thomas turned around with a smile on his face and she took it off easier than if he was turned around. They started kissing each other and then Thomas lifted her up and went on to the bed, which led them to sex.

7: Late For School
Late For School

As soon as Barbara appeared in front of the door to Claire’s room, Claire woke up and asked, “What happened to me?”

Barbara answered, “You were knocked out.”

Claire asked, “Are you sure?”

Barbara answered, “Yes. You were brought to the Underworld unconscious.”

Claire asked, “Why’d I go to the Underworld?”

Barbara answered, “To lure Thomas out.”

Claire heard that and asked, “Is he ok? Did he get hurt?”

Barbara smiled and answered, “He’s alive if that’s what you want to know. But he did get beaten up pretty bad. But hey, don’t worry about a thing. My daughter is caring for him right now.”

Claire heard that and said, “OK. Who is your daughter?”

Barbara answered, “Cascadia Bael.”

Claire said, “Oh her, she’s in my class along with Thomas.”

Barbara said, “Yep. Thomas is one hell of a magician.”

Claire said, “Yes he is. What time is it?”

Barbara looked at her clock and put her down and answered, “It’s 4 a.m.”

Claire heard that and said, “Shit.”

Kelly heard all of the commotion and asked, “What is going on out there?”

Claire answered, “Nothing Kelly, go back to sleep.”

Kelly heard that and walked out of the room and entered the bathroom and said, “I’ll piss first.”

Claire said, “OK.”

Barbara asked, “Who is that?”

Claire answered, “Kelly Todd, a Nine-Tailed Fox. What are you?”

Barbara answered, “I’m the Queen of the Underworld. A Devil to be precise.”

Claire said, “I see. I’m a human and I’m a member of the mafia. Claire Simon is my name.”

Barbara said, “It’s nice to meet you, Claire. Where did you meet Thomas?”

Claire answered, “I first time met him in a store. He didn’t see me, but I saw him. I fell in love with the man’s aura. It was very bright. So when his parents died, his sister left the house and left Thomas all by himself. So I walked to his house and asked if I could live there if he needed any help at all. So that’s how this all began.”

Barbara smiled and said, “OK. Now for the serious question.”

Claire heard that and asked, “What is it?”

Barbara answered, “Is Thomas the Demon of Magic?”

Claire heard that and started laughing and Barbara asked, “What’s so funny?”

Claire answered, “Nothing. But to find that out, I don’t know. But he isn’t the Demon of Magic. The Demon of Magic is a lot more dangerous than Thomas. No one knows who he/she is, except for the person called Demon of Magic. Why do you ask?”

Barbara answered, “The man that tried killing him but failed asked him to awaken his inner being. Demon King. Demon of Magic. He mentioned it all.”

Claire heard that and said, “What was his name?”

Barbara answered, “Don’t know. But I think that Thomas knew him.”

Claire said, “Oh, Freddy Graves. The serial killer that kills students. Thomas was his next target, but failed to kill him twice.”

Barbara said, “It’s 3 times now.”

Claire heard that and Barbara said, “Thomas killed him.”

Claire heard that and looked at her and Kelly said to herself, “Thomas killed someone. I don’t believe it. He’s a really nice guy too.”

Claire asked, “How was he capable of fighting after having his arm bitten off yesterday?”

Barbara answered, “He had impressive regenerative abilities. Thomas seeing you knocked out made him attack him.”

Claire heard that and said, “I see. Then where is Freddy’s corpse now.”

Barbara answered, “In the middle of the Underworld. He fell more than 4,046 miles down to the center of the Underworld. Which is the core. He melted.”

Claire heard that and asked, “How’d Thomas know about it?”

Barbara answered, “After getting brutally injured by the magician, he went underground leaving a paper corpse for him to fight. So he probably looked around the Underworld and found it, I guess.”

Claire said, “I see.”

Barbara said,  "Thomas pulled him down into the ground and then kicked his head back and he didn’t have a scratch on him, so Thomas stuck a grenade in his mouth and ran away. That blew up his top half of his body and then Thomas jumped on to the bottom half of his body and that part flew down to the lava.”

Claire said, “I didn’t think that Thomas had it in him to kill a man. This is exciting. I can’t wait for him to come home.”

Barbara smiled and said, “I see. Well, Thomas won’t be home for awhile. So see you later.”

Claire said, “School starts soon. That sucks.”

Barbara heard that and smiled and said, “Today is Monday after all.”

Claire said, “Please don’t remind me.”

Barbara laughed and said, “Well, I’ll be taking my leave now.”

Claire said, “OK.”

Kelly exited the bathroom and walked to Thomas’ room and went back to sleep. Claire entered the bathroom and then went to sleep as soon as she got out. Barbara went back to the Underworld and Claire smiled and asked, “What made you change your mind about killing people, Thomas? I’ll find that out tomorrow during lunch.”

As soon as Barbara got to the Underworld, she heard the moans of a girl and smiled and Megara said, “Cascadia kicked me out of her room. Are they ok?”

Barbara answered, “Yeah, go to your room and close the door.”

Megara asked, “When is dad coming home?”

Barbara heard that and looked at her and answered, “I don’t know sweetheart. But hey, I’m here for you.”

Megara heard that and said, “I know that. I’m just wondering when dad will be back.”

Barbara said, “I really don’t know. And that is the truth.”

Thomas smiled and Cascadia looked at him and 6 hours later, they were still having sex and school started already and then Thomas looked at the clock and saw that it was 10 a.m. and said, “It’s 10 a.m, huh.”

Cascadia said, “Yes it is.”

 Thomas heard that and yelled, “I’m late for school.”

Thomas pulled his dick out of her pussy and Cascadia asked, “Why are you in a hurry?”

Thomas answered, “Claire will be pissed off.”

Cascadia said, “Oh, you are right. She is a weird one. But we can’t go to school smelling like this. We’ll need to take a shower.”

Thomas said, “You’re right.”

They walked to the bathroom and took a shower together and Barbara walked to the door and heard nothing coming from the room and opened the door and saw that no one was in there and saw that the sheets were really wet and said, “My, my, look at what we have here. You two wet the bed pretty badly here.”

Cascadia heard that and Thomas put his finger by his mouth and Barbara heard the shower going and said, “I see. You two are taking a shower together. Well, you better hurry up. You are late for school.”

Thomas heard that and she brought her body close to his and Thomas saw that and Cascadia asked, “What is your relationship with Claire anyway?”

Thomas answered, “She’s my girlfriend.”

Cascadia smiled and said, “I see. So your life has been hectic before we even met.”

Thomas said, “Hell yeah. Claire is actually the maid of my house. That she paid for.”

Cascadia smiled and Thomas said, “She’s been living with me for 6 years. Ever since the death of my parents. They died in a car accident. My sister left me in the house all by myself. Then she came into the picture and we lived together ever since we met that day. She is a daughter of a mafia family and I found that out 3 years after she moved in with me.”

Cascadia said, “She’s in the mafia. Is that a bad thing?”

Thomas answered, “Yes it is. The mafia is a criminal family that kills people for a living and do some dirty jobs.”

Cascadia heard that and said, “I see.”

30 minutes later, they finished taking a shower and then dried themselves up and walked out of there and Cascadia asked, “Will I meet you at your place?”

Thomas answered, “Yes. I’ll meet you there.”

Cascadia said, “OK.”

Thomas grabbed his clothes and teleported to his house, while he was at his house, she got her uniform on and Thomas ran into his room and picked up the Magic Orb and it said, “I sense that you’ve been hurt sir.”

Thomas said, “Don’t worry about me. I survived against Freddy Graves.”

The Magic Orb heard that and said, “You defeated him a third time.”

Thomas said, “I killed him.”

Kelly heard that and Thomas said, “I don’t like having my family members hurt. I don’t want that to happen a second time.”

Kelly heard that and Thomas said, “I’m willing to do anything to keep them alive.”

The Magic Orb smiled and said, “I see. So he went to the Underworld to kill you.”

Thomas said, “Yep.”

He put his uniform on and Kelly entered his room and hugged him and Thomas felt that and said, “Kelly, I’m in a hurry. Claire really hates me for being late to school.”

Kelly said, “You mentioned that you don’t want it to happen again. What happen again?”

Thomas answered, “6 years ago, my parents were killed. I don’t want to lose anymore family members. So please don’t make me talk about it any longer.”

Tears came out of his eyes and Kelly said, “OK. I’m sorry, sir.”

She walked away and then asked, “Are you hungry?”

Thomas answered, “Nope. I’m heading straight to school.”

Thomas was completely dressed and Cascadia rang the doorbell and then Kelly asked, “Who could that be?”

Thomas answered, “It’s a friend of mine. We’re both late for school.”

Kelly said, “Oh, should I let her in?”

Thomas answered, “Nope. I’m done.”

Thomas lifted his bags up and slid down the railing of the stairs and landed on his feet and opened the door and asked, “Are you ready?”

Cascadia answered, “Yep.”

Thomas said, “I’m not going to hear the end of it from her, now.”

Cascadia laughed and said, “I bet that you won’t honey.”

They started walking to Namisori Academy and as soon as they got to the main entrance, Thomas tossed a rock to the other side of the gate and snapped his fingers and they appeared on the other side and walked to the attendance office and the teacher asked, “Who might you two be?”

Thomas answered, “I’m Thomas Wilkins.”

Cascadia said, “I’m Cascadia Bael.”

They said, “We’re both late today.”

The teacher said, “I see.”

She typed in their names and printed out the late sheet and handed it to them and said, “There you go. Go to class immediately.”

They said, “Yes ma’am.”

They walked to class and Cascadia looked at Thomas and asked, “Are you ok?”

Thomas answered, “Yeah, I’m fine. I have a huge headache after that fall. But I’ll be fine.”

Cascadia said, “If you ever need to go to the nurse, just ask me.”

Thomas said, “I will.”

They walked to the door and Thomas went to open the door, but it was locked and then knocked on it and Yuriko heard that and looked at the door and saw them and said, “Reika, please open the door for them.”

Reika Meno said, “Yes ma’am.”

Reika stood up and walked to the door and opened it up and they walked into the class and walked toward Yuriko and handed them the slips and then walked to their seats and Yuriko asked, “Why are you two late?”

Thomas answered, “In bed after a well-fought workout.”

Cascadia said, “Overslept.”

Yuriko said, “You two are lying. But who cares. Let’s begin class.”

Thomas smiled and said to himself, “She knows me too well.”

Cascadia said to herself, “I have a bad feeling about this.”

They looked at Claire and Claire said to herself, “You truly are an idiot. Just say that she was taking care of you after you got your ass whooped by a criminal.”

Yuriko asked, “Did you do your homework guys?”

They heard that and Cascadia took it out and Thomas looked at Claire and asked, “What was the homework?”

Claire answered, “It was math problems 1-30 all on page 9.”

Thomas heard that and took out his notebook and looked for it and Yuriko looked at Thomas and said, “I’ll give you a minute to find it, Thomas.”

Thomas said, “Thank you.”

He continued to look for it, but couldn’t find it and then looked at her with a smile and said, “I forgot to do it.”

Yuriko said, “Don’t smile while saying it, Thomas. Are you insane?”

Thomas answered, “Yes, especially after last night, ok.”

Yuriko heard that and asked, “What happened yesterday?”

Thomas answered, “I got the shit beaten out of me. By the serial killer.”

Cascadia heard that and Yuriko asked, “Are you ok?”

Thomas answered, “Not at all. I have a major headache, right now. I think me hitting the ground from 100 meters up head first really got to me.”

Everyone heard that and asked, “How are you still alive?”

Thomas snapped his fingers and a snake appeared and answered, “Magic.”

Thomas snapped his fingers again and the snake disappeared and Thomas opened his textbook and saw the work in there and said, “Oh, I found my work miss. It was in my textbook.”

Yuriko asked, “Is it completed?”

Thomas looked at it again and saw that he had all 30 questions on it and answered, “Yes ma’am.”

Yuriko said, “I’ll take it.”

Thomas appeared in front of her desk and put it there and Yuriko said, “No magic during class.”

Thomas said, “Yes ma’am.”

He walked to his seat and sat down. As soon as the bell rang, they went to get their lunch from the cafeteria and Claire was with him and said, “So Thomas, would you like to talk about it?”

Thomas looked at her and asked, “What are you talking about?”

Cascadia answered, “The battle against the man that invaded the Underworld to kill you.”

Thomas said, “Oh, I killed him.”

Claire heard that and said, “I know. Cascadia’s mom told me.”

Cascadia heard that and Claire asked, “What made you change your mind about killing people, Thomas?”

Thomas answered, “I won’t allow anymore of my family to die in front of my eyes again. Not letting it happen a second time.”

Claire heard that and tears came out of her eyes and Thomas smiled and said, “Let’s get me some lunch.”

Cascadia smiled and they appeared in the cafeteria and grabbed themselves some lunch and walked away and started eating on the roof of the school and as soon as they got up there, he sat down beside the left side of the wall and then Yumiko appeared and looked at them and said, “I heard about your battle in the Underworld, Thomas. You killed the student killer.”

Thomas said, “Yes I did. Is that a problem?”

Yumiko answered, “Not at all. I’m glad that he’s dead. But hey, you’ll have more enemies now. And more allies. See you around kiddo.”

They heard that and Thomas turned his head toward her and Claire asked, “Is something wrong, Thomas?”

Thomas answered, “Nope.”

Claire asked, “Who is the Demon of Magic?”

Thomas heard that and looked at her and answered, “Don’t know. But I wished that I did know.”

The Magic Orb heard that and Thomas said to himself, “The Demon of Magic, huh. I would like to meet that person.”

Cascadia said, “All I know about the Demon of Magic is that his/her magic is strong enough to destroy an entire building like it was nothing.”

Thomas heard that and said, “I see. That is quite a monster.”

Claire said, “Yes it is.”

8: A Nekomata (Nekoshou)
A Nekomata (Nekoshou)

After school that day, Thomas, Claire, Saya, and Cascadia walked out of school together. Thomas looked at them and Claire said, “That reminds me, we need more food.”

Thomas heard that and said, “We do?”

Claire said, “Yep. You do eat a lot of food.”

Thomas said, “You are right.”

Saya smiled and asked, “How many lunches did you eat?”

Thomas answered, “1. Same as usual.”

Cascadia said, “I doubt that.”

Claire said, “It’s true.”

Thomas said, “She knows me too well. Wait, what’s true?”

They started laughing and Claire answered, “That she doubts that.”

Thomas said, “She doesn’t know me too well.”

Claire heard that and Cascadia said, “Well, you didn’t eat anything yesterday except for breakfast and lunch.”

Claire said, “Wrong. He only ate breakfast.”

Saya asked, “Do you want to go shopping?”

Cascadia said, “I got nothing else to lose.”

Claire said, “Let’s go then ladies. Thomas could go home early.”

Thomas heard that and said, “You 3 are so mean to me.”

Saya smiled and said, “You are the one that’s mean to Claire.”

Thomas sighed and said, “That’s not true.”

Claire said, “Yes it is true.”

Thomas said, “I saved you last night from an attack by the serial killer. That wanted me dead. He used your body to get to me. And of course, I fought the man that injured my family.”

Saya asked, “How is he?”

Thomas answered, “Dead.”

She heard that and Cascadia said, “That’s true.”

Claire said, “He’s a badass.”

Thomas said, “Shut up. You are leaving me to go shopping. And I get to go home again and enjoy the house with Kelly.”

They heard that and Claire said, “No you won’t.”

Thomas said, “You’re right. I can’t sleep in peace.”

They started laughing and Thomas said, “See you around.”

They turned right and went to the store. While Thomas was walking home, a Humanoid Hunter, Nene Kimura said, “Stop right there. You are going to die today. You damn Nekomata.”

The Nekoshou (a strongest variant of Nekomata) heard that and jumped on top of the building next to her and said, “Come get me if you can, Humanoid Hunter.”

The Magic Orb said, “Sir, there’s a Nekoshou in trouble.”

Thomas asked, “What the hell is a Nekoshou?”

The Magic Orb answered, “It’s the strongest variant of Nekomata. Do you know what that is?”

Thomas answered, “It’s one of the youkai. Like the Nine-Tailed Fox that I saved.”

The Magic Orb said, “Exactly. The Nekoshou is being chased by a Humanoid Hunter.”

Thomas sighed and said, “OK.”

Thomas started walking toward her location and the Magic Orb asked, “Would you like me to create a magic weapon for you to use to battle the Humanoid Hunter?”

Thomas asked, “How strong is she?”

The Magic Orb answered, “I don’t know. You have to find that out on your own.”

Thomas sighed and said, “Have a sword ready for me.”

The Magic Orb said, “Yessir.”

Thomas ran up the wall of the building and said, “Let’s go.”

The Magic Orb had a sword appear by his side and Thomas ran toward them. That includes jumping on to other buildings. While they were running on the rooftops, the Nekoshou said, “It seems that death is awaiting me. Someone is coming from ahead of me.”

Nene heard that and asked, “Who the hell would interfere with my prey?”

She jumped up and saw the human running toward the Nekoshou and then landed on the ground and Thomas saw that and smiled and said, “Found you.”

The Nekoshou heard that and Thomas jumped off of the building and the Nekoshou saw that and said, “He’s insane.”

Thomas rolled forward as soon as he landed and started running toward her and Nene saw that and said, “You gotta be kidding me.”

Thomas looked at her and the Nekoshou saw him and Nene said, “He isn’t after her. He’s after me.”

Thomas brought his arm back and then threw a rock all the way down toward her and then stopped running and Nene looked at him and snapped his fingers and it turned into a grenade that doesn’t have a clip on it and Nene saw that and grinned and jumped on top of the building and Thomas snapped his fingers and appeared where the grenade was and the grenade blew up where Thomas was supposed to be standing and Nene saw that and said, “You gotta be kidding me. A magician.”

The Nekoshou said, “He’s a magician.”

Thomas ran up the building and Nene saw that and as soon as Thomas got to the top, Nene kicked his head and Thomas backed up and fell off of the building with a smile and tossed a rock up there and it landed on the roof and Thomas snapped his fingers and as soon as Nene went to look for him, he was already on the roof behind her and Nene asked, “Where’d he go?”

The Nekoshou saw him and said, “Oh my god. He’s good.”

Nene heard that and turned around and Thomas kicked her in the face and she flew off of the building and Nene looked at the ground and said, “Looks like fun. This magician is good.”

She took out her sword and put it in the ground and it stopped her fall and the Nekoshou saw that and said, “That’s insane. She used her sword to land that.”

Thomas said, “Yes she did. Come up here.”

Nene heard that and then asked, “Why don’t you come down here?”

Thomas heard that and Thomas smiled and jumped down with excitement and Nene saw that and the Nekoshou said, “You totally know that it’s a trap.”

Nene smiled and said, “Farewell.”

Thomas smiled at her and she stabbed him in the chest while in the air and Thomas looked at her with a smile and whispered, “Death awaits all.”

He closed his eyes and the Nekoshou saw that and Nene took the blade out and Thomas collapsed and Nene ran toward her and the Nekoshou saw that and said, “He truly is an idiot.”

Nene laughed and said, “He was an idiot.”

Thomas heard that and turned his head and asked, “What did she all me?”

The Magic Orb answered, “An idiot.”

Thomas smiled and stood up and said, “I see.”

Thomas ran after Nene and the Nekoshou saw that and her eyes widened and yelled, “What the hell?”

Nene heard that and turned her head slowly and saw that Thomas was running toward her and said, “You gotta be kidding me.”

She turned around and swung at him, but Thomas took out a sword and blocked it and then stopped running after that and they started swinging at each other and the Nekoshou asked, “How is he still alive after getting stabbed in the chest?”

Nene asked, “What are you?”

Thomas answered, “A magician.”

Nene said, “Besides that.”

Thomas answered, “A human.”

Nene heard that and said, “You truly are annoying. And you are interfering with my kill here.”

Thomas said, “I can’t allow her to die just yet.”

The Nekoshou heard that and Nene asked, “How old are you?”

Thomas answered, “16.”

Nene heard that and the Nekoshou said, “This kid is very nice.”

Thomas started swinging at her, but she blocked all of his attacks and Thomas smiled and the Magic Orb said, “More power.”

Thomas heard that and Nene asked, “What was that?”

Thomas answered, “Your imagination is playing with your head. By the way, how are the other Humanoid Hunters that I attacked?”

Nene heard that and said, “That was you. You attacked them. You attacked my brother.”

She started swinging at him with immense speed and Thomas looked at her and smiled and said, “I guess that I did. He was after a Nine-Tailed Fox, right?”

Nene answered, “Yes he was.”

Thomas said, “Good enough.”

Thomas ducked and she saw that and Thomas uppercutted her and she flew back a little and she felt that and then looked at Thomas and saw that he was about to spear her and she stabbed his head and Thomas completed the spear while getting cut in half and the Nekoshou saw that and Nene hit the ground hard and was knocked out cold and Thomas’ body went back together and so did his school uniform and Thomas stood up and looked at her and said, “Man you Humanoid Hunters are weak.”

He walked away and put his sword away and the Nekoshou looked at him and Thomas walked home. The Nekoshou slid down the building using her claws to help her slide down the building and asked, “How are you still alive?”

Thomas answered, “Magic.”

The Nekoshou asked, “How are you so strong?”

Thomas answered, “I’m not strong.”

The Nekoshou asked, “Why did you save me?”

Thomas answered, “I actually like humanoid beings. I’m Thomas Wilkins, by the way.”

The Nekoshou heard that and said, “I’m Meli Ah-Puck, a Nekoshou, which is the strongest variant of the Nekomata. And it’s a pleasure to meet you.”

Thomas said, “Well, it’s a pleasure to meet you as well. Well, I’ll be on my way home now.”

Meli heard that and said, “OK. See you later.”

Thomas looked at her with a smile and said, “Saved another person.”

He walked home and Meli followed him and as soon as he got home, he asked, “Why have you followed me?”

Meli answered, “I don’t have a place to live. Nene destroyed my house.”

Thomas asked, “Who is Nene?”

Meli answered, “The Humanoid Hunter that you just defeated.”

Thomas said, “I see. I feel sorry for you. Goodbye.”

Meli heard that and asked, “Are you not going to invite me in?”

Thomas opened the door and waited for her and Meli saw that and walked inside of his house and Thomas closed the door and said, “Welcome to Hell.”

Meli heard that and said, “This isn’t Hell. This is Heaven.”

Thomas said, “Not at all. Heaven is a peaceful place. Hell is not. This place isn’t peaceful at all.”

Kelly heard that and said, “You are so mean Thomas.”

Thomas said, “Not at all. It’s the truth.”

Meli asked, “Who is she?”

Thomas answered, “A Nine-Tailed Fox. She was attacked by Nene’s brothers group. And failed to kill her because I intervened.”

Kelly said, “Yep. Who are you?”

Meli answered, “I’m a Nekoshou. Name is Meli Ah-Puck.”

Kelly said, “I’m Kelly Todd.”

They said, “Nice to meet you.”

Thomas smiled and said, “You two are going to get along just fine.”

He walked to the kitchen and said, “I’m going to need a bigger house.”

The Magic Orb laughed and said, “I agree. If you continue to pick up people, you’ll run out of room like the snap of your fingers.”

Thomas said, “Yep. I know that.”

Meli said, “So, who else lives here?”

Kelly answered, “A maid. Also Thomas’ girlfriend.”

Meli said, “I see.”

Kelly said, “By the way Thomas, where is Claire anyway?”

Thomas answered, “Shopping with friends.”

She heard that and said, “I see.”

Thomas said, “She should be home soon.”

The door opened and the 3 girls entered the house and Cascadia said, “That was a good walk with friends.”

Claire said, “Yes it was.”

Saya said, “It’s good to be young.”

Thomas heard that and Kelly said, “Welcome back.”

Saya saw Kelly and said, “Kelly, how are you?”

Kelly answered, “Good.”

Saya walked to her and asked, “How long will you be living here?”

Claire answered, “Forever, why?”

Thomas heard that and Kelly said, “Whenever they decide to kick me out.”

Thomas asked, “Who would kick you out? Saya loves you so much that she’s willing to take you off of my hands. But I rather not allow my family to leave my house. So why not stay.”

Saya heard that and Kelly said, “I’ll have to accept.”

Saya smiled and said, “Awesome. I get to play with you even more.”

Thomas smiled and said, “Oh yeah, Meli, meet my friends.”

Meli said, “Hello.”

Claire said, “Hello. Will she be living here?”

Thomas answered, “Yes she will. I kinda saved her from a Humanoid Hunter.”

Cascadia said, “Sounds like you. But who the hell is the Demon of Magic?”

Thomas heard that and answered, “Don’t look at me. I know nothing. Except that he/she is capable of destroying buildings like it’s nothing.”

Cascadia said, “As I thought. It wasn’t a rumor.”

Thomas said, “It is a rumor. But no one knows if it is true or not because no one has ever stood a chance against him/her, meaning that they never came back alive to tell the tale.”

They heard that and said, “Oh, that would make sense.”

Thomas said, “Well, if you need me, I’ll be hiding.”

They heard that and Cascadia asked, “Why?”

Thomas answered, “No reason in particular.”

He walked to his basement and closed the door. They saw that and Meli asked, “What’s over there?”

Claire answered, “The basement. You enter it, Thomas will attack you. He attacked me before.”

Kelly said, “No one is allowed down there. Not even to tell him that foods ready.”

Claire answered, “Nope.”

Cascadia said, “He’s most likely hiding something down there.”

Saya asked, “Do you think that he’s the Demon of Magic?”

Claire answered, “I don’t believe so. Thomas wouldn’t hide anything from me.”

Cascadia said, “Then why doesn’t he want anyone down there?”

Claire answered, “Don’t know. All he has down there is his workout station. But Thomas lets me down there sometimes to work out with him.”

They heard that and said, “Oh, I see.”

Cascadia looked at her card and said, “Well, I gotta go now. Mom is asking for me.”

They said, “OK.”

Saya said, “I should get going as well. See you later Kelly.”

Kelly said, “OK. See you around.”

Saya nodded and they left and Claire said, “That just leaves us.”

Meli said, “Yep.”

They walked to the living room and turned the tv on and started watching tv together. As soon as Thomas got to the stairs, he heard that his barbell was being lifted and walked down the steps. The person lifting his barbell heard the footsteps and smiled. As soon as Thomas got to the bottom, he saw a girl in his basement.

Behemoth Talks to Thomas; Demon of Magic's Body Revealed

Cascadia looked at her card and said, “Well, I gotta go now. Mom is asking for me.”

They said, “OK.”

Saya said, “I should get going as well. See you later Kelly.”

Kelly said, “OK. See you around.”

Saya nodded and they left and Claire said, “That just leaves us.”

Meli said, “Yep.”

They walked to the living room and turned the tv on and started watching tv together. As soon as Thomas got to the stairs, he heard that his barbell was being lifted and walked down the steps. The person lifting his barbell heard the footsteps and smiled. As soon as Thomas got to the bottom, he saw a girl in his basement. He said, “You gotta be kidding me.”

The girl smiled and looked at him and said, “Hello.”

Thomas asked, “Who are you?”

The girl answered, “You’ll find that out later.”

Thomas sighed and asked, “How’d you get in here?”

The girl answered, “Secret doors.”

Thomas said, “You gotta be kidding me.”

The girl said, “Not at all. Came here undetected. So what do you do down here?”

Thomas answered, “I workout.”

She heard that and Thomas grabbed a barbell and put four 25’s on each end and started lifting it up and the girl said, “I see. Why do you keep everyone out of here?”

Thomas answered, “Personal reasons.”

The girl heard that and said, “Personal reasons my ass. What’s the real reason behind it?”

Thomas answered, “OK. I am hiding something down here that I don’t want anyone to see. I have it hidden as well.”

She smiled and said, “We’re finally getting somewhere.”

Thomas asked, “Why are you here?”

The girl answered, “I’m here because I want to be here. Now, where is it?”

Thomas heard that and the girl said, “The body of the Demon of Magic. Where is it?”

Thomas grinned and answered, “That’s none of your damn business.”

The girl said, “Yes it is my business.”

Thomas said, “Well, you aren’t going to find his/her body here.”

The girl said, “I know that you know where it is. And you are going to take me there if you want to live.”

Thomas said, “I ain’t taking you anywhere.”

The girl grabbed the barbell and swung it at Thomas’ back and Thomas grinned and flew forward and the girl said, “I don’t want to hurt you. Just tell me where the body is and I’ll leave you alone.”

Thomas said, “Well, I don’t know where it is.”

She launched the barbell at him and Thomas moved to the side and said, “That looked pretty painful. I didn’t want to deal with the pain.”

The girl said, “Behemoth doesn’t care.”

Thomas heard that and said, “Behemoth? Who the hell is that?”

Behemoth heard that and answered, “I shouldn’t have said that. I just mentioned my name.”

Thomas sighed and asked, “What the hell is with people these days? Can I ever get a day in peace where no one wants me dead? Shit.”

Behemoth heard that and asked, “Where is the body of the Demon of Magic.”

Thomas answered, “I literally don’t know. Find the person on your own even though I’d like to meet this person as well.”

Behemoth heard that and said, “You want to meet him/her as well, huh.”

Thomas answered, “Yes I do. I can’t become the best magician without fighting him/her.”

Behemoth heard that and said, “I see. But how do you plan on becoming the best?”

The Magic Orb answered, “Finding the other 4 Magic Orbs. He’ll collect all 5 of them and then use them to fight crime.”

Thomas smiled and Behemoth heard that and asked, “Who said that?”

Thomas took out the Magic Orb and the Magic Orb said, “Hello, Behemoth. I’m the Magic Orb. You probably don’t know anything about the Magic Orbs.”

Behemoth said, “I don’t know anything.”

Thomas heard that and said, “That is sad. Now tell me, are you going to leave my basement or not?”

Behemoth looked at him and answered, “Nope. I actually want to join you on your journey to fight the Demon of Magic.”

Thomas said, “You have a grudge against him, huh.”

Behemoth answered, “Yes I do. That person killed my parents. I will avenge them.”

Thomas looked at her and said, “I see.”

Behemoth smiled and Thomas said, “Well, if you want to live here, come back tomorrow, but knock on the front door this time.”

Behemoth sighed and said, “OK. What time?”

Thomas answered, “4 p.m. I’ll meet you at the store.”

Behemoth said, “OK.”

Behemoth disappeared and Thomas smiled and said, “She’s finally out of my hair. Now I can workout in peace.”

He walked to the wall and tapped it in three different bricks and the wall opened up and Thomas looked at the tube and Thomas walked inside of the room and looked at her and said, “Honey, it seems that you’ve angered a lot of people. But gained my respect. Lend me your strength when I need it please.”

The Demon of Magic opened her eyes and saw Thomas and put her left hand by the glass and Thomas put his hand there as well and Thomas smiled and the wall closed up and Behemoth reappeared and saw that Thomas wasn’t there and asked, “Where’d he go? I had a question for him.”

Thomas heard that and turned his head and the Demon of Magic saw that and Thomas walked to the wall and put his ear by the wall and Behemoth looked around and said, “He must have went up stairs. I’ll knock on the door.”

Thomas heard that and grinned and then a piece of paper appeared out there and Behemoth saw the paper and picked it up and it said, “Come on back to the Underworld. We’ll talk about the Demon of Magic down here.”

Thomas heard that and Behemoth said, “OK. I guess that I have no choice then. Goodbye Thomas. And I will be back to help you find the Demon of Magic so I could kill him/her.”

Thomas heard that and Behemoth disappeared and Thomas turned around and the Demon of Magic looked at him and Thomas said, “Don’t worry about a thing. I won’t let her harm you.”

The Demon of Magic put both of her hands on the glass and Thomas said, “I got this. Just believe in me.”

The Demon of Magic nodded and Thomas smiled and then the Demon of Magic made a piece of paper appear in front of him and Thomas picked it up and said, “I believe in you, honey. Just don’t tell her about me. You could tell everyone else, but not Behemoth. I accidentally killed her parents. And your parents.”

Thomas heard that and said, “It was a car accident. Don’t worry about it. I only want to kill the man that kidnapped me 3 years ago and his new people. That’s all I want sweetheart.”

She heard that and looked at him and the words on the paper changed and she pointed at it and Thomas looked down at the paper and said, “Revenge is never the answer. But if that’s what you want, I’ll support you all of the way. And I’ll make sure that you never die.”

Thomas smiled and said, “Thank you. Would you like to see some magic tricks?”

The Demon of Magic heard that and nodded and Thomas said, “Well, I only have time for 3 of them. So I’m sorry about time. A man needs to eat you know.”

The Demon of Magic nodded and the words on the paper changed and Thomas looked at it and said, “I know that. I haven’t eaten anything since I became the Demon of Magic. I’m just never hungry. I don’t know why.”

Thomas said, “Don’t worry about it. You will still live a good life.”

The Demon of Magic smiled and Thomas said, “I’ll begin now.”

Thomas took out a rock and started spinning it on his pointer finger and she saw that and Thomas tossed it up and the Demon of Magic looked at the rock and Thomas looked at the rock and then put his finger where it was going to land without knowing where it was landing and the rock appeared spinning on his finger again and the Demon of Magic saw that and then the rock started turning into a basketball out of nowhere and her jaw dropped and Thomas smiled and said, “Look at your expression.”

Thomas looked at the ball and tossed it up and it disappeared and Thomas took out his sword and swung it 104 times and then a hexadecagon appeared and Thomas caught it and showed it to her and the Demon of Magic started to smile and then Thomas put his sword away and laid down and put his hands above his body and then moved his fingers around and Thomas’ body started to lift up and the Demon of Magic looked at him and Thomas folded his legs and sat up and rose and the Demon of Magic started clapping with a smile on her face and Thomas put his arms down and then he put his legs down and was on his feet again. Thomas smiled and said, “I’ll come see you again tomorrow.”

She made a piece of paper appear and Thomas grabbed it and said, “Will you ever love me as much as you love the other girl’s, huh?”

Thomas answered, “Yes I will. Listen, the two of us met a very long time ago. And I’m glad that we met. You being here with me is all that matters. If that’s what you want, I’ll come by tonight.”

The Demon of Magic nodded and then Thomas looked at the paper and said, “OK, huh. See you then.”

Thomas smiled and the Demon of Magic said, “See you then, sweetheart.”

Thomas walked out of the room and the wall closed up and the Demon of Magic smiled and said to herself, “He’s the man that protects me. I must protect him as well.”

As soon as Thomas walked up the stairs, Kelly heard the footsteps and then Thomas opened the door and appeared in the kitchen and Claire said, “You are on time for once. We’re eating leftover chicken.”

Thomas said, “Good enough.”

Thomas sat down and Kelly said, “With Italian rice.”

Thomas smiled and said, “That’s good. Is that leftover as well?”

Claire answered, “Nope.”

Meli said, “Their cooking is amazing.”

Thomas said, “Yes it is.”

Thomas took a plate and started eating and Thomas said, “It never gets old. I can eat this all day, everyday.”

They heard that and while they were talking, in the Underworld, the Psycho Saber boss, Ivan Grul said, “Hey, I never said to live with him. Thomas is an enemy of Psycho Saber. And the girl living with him is an enemy as well. They slaughtered my men last time. But of course, Thomas is hiding something. Find out what he is hiding and take it from him.”

Behemoth said, “Yessir.”

Ivan said, “One more thing about Thomas, he is weak. But him using his magic on you will be trouble. He already killed an immortal man that worked for us.”

Behemoth said, “Freddy Graves.”

Ivan said, “Yep. You’ll be fine. He won’t realise that it’s gone if you find it.”

Behemoth said, “Yessir.”

Ivan said, “Revenge is a bitch. Plus, we need to find Demon of Magic as well. We need clues. That person’s corpse will be the work of a criminal mind coming into play.”

Behemoth said, “You are right. But I think Thomas knows more than he’s willing to spill. Do you want me to kill him or bring him here alive?”

Ivan answered, “Bring him alive along with the object he protects.”

Behemoth heard that and said, “Understood.”

Behemoth went back to Earth with a smile on her face and said, “You are mine, Thomas.”

10: Behemoth vs. Thomas
Behemoth vs. Thomas

As soon as it turned to 9 p.m., Thomas went to the basement to be with the Demon of Magic all night long. And they enjoyed there night with sex. The next morning, Thomas woke up with a smile on his face and the Demon of Magic was awake and Thomas said, “Good morning honey.”

The Demon of Magic nodded and wrote down, “Good morning to you as well. I had a lot of fun last night.”

Thomas said, “Well, so did I. I will have to leave now. The school is waiting for me.”

The Demon of Magic wrote down, “OK. See you later honey.”

She went back into the tube and it closed up and she went back to sleep and said to herself, “He’s my man and no one else’s.”

Thomas walked to the shower that was in his basement and said, “I love her very much. I hope that you do protect me. Because something bad is about to happen to me.”

As soon as Thomas was finished with the shower, Thomas walked up to the kitchen and Claire asked, “Did you have a good night sleep down there?”

Thomas answered, “Yes I did. Later on, I have to talk to you about something.”

Claire said, “Marriage.”

Thomas said, “Nope.”

Claire asked, “Then what?”

Thomas answered, “You’ll find that out later. What’s for breakfast?”

Claire answered, “The usual. Eggs with Bacon.”

Thomas smiled and said, “My favorite meal of the day.”

Claire said, “Yes it is.”

She put two plates on the table and they started eating together and Claire asked, “What is the thing that you want to talk about?”

Thomas answered, “Psycho Saber is on the move again.”

Claire heard that and said, “You can’t be serious.”

Thomas said, “I’m serious. Just yesterday, one of them broke into the basement.”

Claire heard that and asked, “Did they attack you?”

Thomas answered, “Yes she did. She tried killing me with my own barbell. That she was lifting before I entered the basement.”

Claire said, “So what were they after.”

Thomas answered, “They were after the Demon of Magic’s body. Which I know where it is and I also know who it is.”

Claire heard that and asked, “What are you talking about?”

Thomas answered, “The Demon of Magic is the only reason I’m still alive. Along with my older sister which left me to rot. We were both in the car when it crashed.”

Claire said, “I see. So you only know that it’s a he or a she.”

Thomas said, “I actually met the person when I was 5 years old.”

Claire heard that and said, “So you know the person personally.”

Thomas answered, “Yes. The Demon of Magic is a friend of the family’s.”

Claire said, “I see.”

They finished eating and Thomas said, “We’ll finish talking after school.”

Claire asked, “About what?”

Thomas answered, “The Demon of Magic.”

They walked to Namisori Academy and then a 2nd year student, Inaba Tokie appeared in front of them and said, “Hello guys.”

Thomas said, “Hello Inaba.”

Claire said, “Hello.”

Inaba asked, “How are you two doing?”

Thomas answered, “Not too well.”

Inaba asked, “Why?”

Thomas answered, “I’m wanted dead yet again. First, by the serial killer. Now, by the people that tried killing me 3 years ago, Psycho Saber.”

Inaba heard that and looked at him and said, “I see. Psycho Saber has made a comeback. That’s not good.”

Claire said, “No it’s not.”

Thomas said, “I won’t like it. But I won’t accept it.”

Inaba heard that and said, “I see.”

Thomas looked at her and said, “Well, who cares about that for now? Let’s just worry about school.”

They said, “OK.”

They walked into the school and went to class as soon as the bell rang. After school, Cascadia, Saya, Claire, and Thomas appeared outside and Thomas looked at the time and saw that it was 2:30 and said, “Ladies, we need to talk about something important.”

Saya heard that and asked, “What are you talking about?”

Inaba was behind them and smiled and said to herself, “He doesn’t know that she’s a member of Psycho Saber. A war will break out and Thomas will lose it.”

Thomas looked around and grabbed the 4 of them and disappeared and Inaba saw that and said, “You gotta be kidding me.”

Thomas smiled and said, “Welcome to my basement ladies and gentlemen. Like I said before, I’m not hiding anything. I was lying. I have a little secret down here. Psycho Saber is after this secret as well as me. You must not tell anyone about what you saw here today.”

Claire heard that and said, “We’re listening Thomas.”

Thomas walked to the wall and then sensed trouble around the neighborhood and snapped his fingers and all magic was disabled in that room and Thomas said, “Now we can’t get interrupted.”

Cascadia asked, “What are you talking about?”

Thomas answered, “Outside, something is happening. I won’t allow anything or anyone else in my basement.”

He tapped the wall in 3 different places and the wall moved and they saw that and Claire said, “You are hiding stuff from me, Thomas.”

Thomas smiled and said, “Of course I am. That’s how I do business.”

Cascadia smiled and then a tube with a girl appeared in it and Thomas said, “Meet the Demon of Magic. She is suffering a great deal of pain. And I have been protecting her since she brought me back to life after the car accident with my parents and sister. And they are after her and me.”

Saya said, “She’s the Demon of Magic.”

Thomas said, “Yep.”

She woke up and put her hands out to the glass and Thomas smiled and put his hands where her hands were and said, “Don’t worry about a thing. She’s not here.”

Claire asked, “Who is not here?”

Thomas answered, “The girl that broke into my basement last night. Attacked me with my own barbell. And now she’s after the both of us and I don’t plan on letting them have the girl that saved my life. The first girlfriend that I’ve had. And is the one that taught me magic when I was younger.”

Claire said, “Man, you truly are hiding things from me. A lot of things.”

Thomas smiled and said, “You are right. And there’s a lot more to come in the near future. By the way honey, why does Psycho Saber want you as well?”

The Demon of Magic looked at him and they looked at her and a piece of paper appeared and Thomas picked it up and said, “That is because they want my corpse to experiment on it. I don’t want to die, Thomas. Please save me.”

They heard that and Thomas looked at his watch and saw that it was 3:30 and said, “Demon of Magic, ladies, I gotta go somewhere. May I ask you to leave the basement?”

They answered, “Sure thing.”

They walked away and paper appeared in front of Thomas and Thomas picked it up and said, “Be careful, Thomas. You will lose.”

Thomas looked at it and continued, “Behemoth is your enemy. She works for Psycho Saber. And is strong. But not as strong as Freddy Graves.”

Thomas looked at it and Cascadia asked, “What’s wrong?”

Thomas answered, “Nothing.”

They walked to the building and the magic barrier disappeared and Cascadia said, “Thomas, where are you going anyway?”

Thomas answered, “To the store. I’m meeting someone there.”

They heard that and said, “OK.”

Thomas walked to the store and the ladies went to the living room to watch tv with Kelly and Meli and Kelly asked, “When did you get home?”

Claire answered, “An hour and thirty minutes ago.”

Meli said, “I see. You teleported here.”

Saya said, “We teleported into the basement.”

Cascadia said, “It’s pretty spacious.”

Claire said, “It’s really big.”

Cascadia said, “You could have a lot of love down there.”

Claire heard that and said, “So that’s what he was doing down there last night. Making love with her.”

Saya heard that and asked, “Is Thomas really that kind of man?”

Claire answered, “Probably. He’s really good at sex. That’s all I gotta say.”

Saya asked, “How do you know?”

Cascadia answered, “He had sex with her. What else could it be?”

Saya heard that and said, “You two are lovers.”

Claire answered, “Yes.”

Cascadia said, “He ain’t in love with you. He’s in love with someone else.”

Claire heard that and said, “Yeah right.”

Cascadia said, “You already mentioned that he had sex with her.”

Claire heard that and said, “Oh. You’re right.”

While they were watching tv, Thomas appeared at the store at 4 p.m. and said, “I’m seriously getting bored.”

Behemoth appeared and said, “Sorry about that. Have you been waiting long?”

Thomas answered, “No, only 2 minutes.”

Behemoth said, “I see. Let’s go.”

Thomas said, “Before we go there, where can I find Psycho Saber? I have some business with the boss.”

Behemoth heard that and smiled and said, “You knew that I was a member of Psycho Saber, you seriously are a badass.”

Thomas said, “Well, I got friends.”

Behemoth said, “Well, so do I. But I don’t need help to take you down.”

Thomas heard that and looked at her and he smiled with her and Behemoth made her fingernails grow longer and Thomas saw that and she swung at him and Thomas blocked her attack with his sword and they teleported to the Underworld and Thomas saw that and said, “You gotta be kidding me. I fell for it again.”

Behemoth smiled and Ivan said, “Yes you did Thomas. Welcome to the new Psycho Saber. We’re stronger and better than ever. And Thomas, as soon as we get the Demon of Magic’s body, we’ll be able to make people immortal and no one could stop us from destroying the world.”

Thomas heard that and saw that he was surrounded by the members of the organization and Behemoth swung at him and Thomas ducked and said to himself, “You gotta be kidding me. Am I really going to be defeated like she mentioned? This isn’t cool.”

Behemoth swung downwards and Thomas rolled out of the way and then punched her leg and Behemoth went on one leg and Ivan said, “You already killed Freddy Graves. We still have more people coming for you.”

Inaba walked to the front line and Thomas saw her and said, “You can’t be serious. You are a member as well.”

Inaba answered, “Yes. And it seems that I underestimated you. I didn’t think that you would figure out that Behemoth was a member of this organization.”

Thomas said, “Well, if it wasn’t for my friends, I would have let you into my house. That is sad. I really trusted you after you tried killing me.”

Ivan heard that and Behemoth said, “Sorry, he pissed me off in his basement.”

Thomas swung his sword at her and Ivan said, “Oh well. Defeat him, get rewarded.”

Behemoth said, “Yessir.”

Behemoth blocked the sword with her claws and then Thomas saw that and she threw him to the ground.
