I had this idea while drawing a thingy with an imp and blood contracts o.o And it's mine. So don't take it.

Hey guess what! I edited this! Thanks !

"Are you sure we should be doing this?"

"Of course! What harm is it gonna do?"

I walked down the long hallway towards the door painted with a pentagram. My best friend, Sadie, trailed behind shivering in the dank air. She thought we were going to get cursed or something. As if. Nobody believed in that crap anymore.

Sadie was my first friend when I moved to the little town in Ohio. She was with me through thick and thin and she would never let me down (which was my argument to get her to come down to this creep-shack).

"Look, Sadie. If you don't want to be here, then leave," I said, twisting my head around to look at her. She was running her hands up and down her arms, trying to gather warmth from the little friction she could make. 'Jeez, she's so paranoid' I thought and shook my head, making my brown hair sway back and forth.

"B-but, Avery! You know that our parents would kill me if they knew I let you go down here alone," she whispered. I shrugged. Yeah, it's true. They probably would. But this was so worth it!

The whole reason behind this little visit was raw curiosity. I heard some kids talking about a door with a star in a circle painted on it, a pentagram. They said everyone who went in it, never came out. Well, some did, but they went to the morgue later.

"Whatever. I'll just prove to you that those rumors are totally wrong!" I grinned. Sadie just shook her head and sighed, going back to warming herself up.

We were a few feet away from the door now. It was dark, but the stuff used to draw the pentagram looked…red. And it was all drippy, too, like it was fresh painted. I rolled my eyes. This was so fake.

"Av-avery. I don't think we should g-go any farther," Sadie said behind me. She sounded scared.

"Sadie, calm the hell down! It's just a stupid prank!" I stopped and whirled around to face her. Her brown eyes were wide and she was shaking terribly. I felt really bad about my outburst and reached toward her.

"Avery, let's just leave!" she almost screamed as she backed away from my hand. I didn't want to go back; life was boring. My mom was a Wiccan and hardly did anything except stuff for the soul and crap. Seriously, all of my classmates thought we were freaks.

I turned back around and headed towards the door again. It got colder once I was in front of the door. And was the air…menacing? Creepy.

I touched the doorknob, and then suddenly, I could hear screaming from all around. It was painful, and I clutched at my head, wanting for it to stop. And it did.

"Sadie! Did you hear that!?" I yelled, my ears ringing from the screaming. It was weird how it had just stopped all of a sudden.

"Is that the girl's name?" a silky-smooth voice asked.

I turned around and saw the body of Sadie, admiring her fingernails. I gaped at her and she 'tsked'.

"Don't stand there with your mouth open like a codfish. Open the door already so I can get out of this wretched world!" she said, pointing towards the pentagrammed door.

"What? Who are you?" I asked, half-crazed. This was not Sadie, and before I did anything, I wanted answers!

She sighs. "First of all, I'm a demon, and every moment you spend asking questions, you're friend dies a bit at a time. Then I'll be body-less, and we don't want that. Second, I have no name, so you don't need to know. Now, open the door, girl, or your friend will die."

Jeez. Mom had mentioned something about demons. Something about energy stealing; I wasn't listening. Damn, does that mean everything she's told me about witchcraft was true?

"B-but, that means you'll take Sadie. Give Sadie back!" I demanded. Demon lady sighed again.

"Me being a powerful demon, which is quite annoying sometimes, I've just about spent you're friend's energy. Oh well, I'll just take your body," she said boredly. Sadie's body sagged, and collapsed in a heap of limbs.

"Well, girl, looks like your friend's dead. Tough break," a voice out of nowhere sighs. What is with her and sighing?

I kneel down beside my best friend. No pulse, no heartbeat, no breathing. Hot tears slid down my cheeks; that damn demon was going to pay!

I sucked in a breath; payback will have to wait. Excruciating pain washed over me. I struggled against the strong presence in my head.

"Hmph, you're strong. You must be Aislinn's daughter," she scoffed. I paused. How did she know my mother?

"Darlin', your mother was the one who put me in this hell-hole!" she spat in my head. My mom? The weirdo Wiccan who believed that a cypress limb had the power of making you live longer?

"Get out of my head, you damn witch!" I shouted at the top of my lungs. I held a mental image of me throwing a witch out a window, hoping maybe it would come true. The pain disappeared, and I heard her groan in pain.

"Girl, you don't know what you just did," she said menacingly, "You might leave this place, but I know you'll come back. And when you do, I will take your body."

"Ugh, I'm so emo," I grumbled, staring forlornly at the sharp razor I clutched in between my thumb and forefinger. I tossed it in the bin beside my desk and grabbed a backpack and started shoving things in.

I had gotten so depressed after the incident. I'd cut myself a few times, and I made these crocheted wristbands to hide the scars (the wounds healed amazingly fast). I just realized today how overrated it was.

It's been a week since Sadie died. It's been two days since we held the funeral. And it's been ten minutes since I decided what I was going to do about it.

"Mom! I'm going out!" I yelled from upstairs, grabbing the back. In a flurry of wispy fabric, my mother swept towards me.

"Where are you going, honey?" she asked, cocking her head to the side. This made the super heavy earrings she had on tilt and her earlobes stretch. 'That is so gross' I thought, amused.

"Out." I said shortly. She pursed her lips.

"Avery, I know what happened," she said knowingly (any other way?), and I froze.

"And what happened Mom?" I said coolly.

"You let out that demon, that's what."

Crap. So she did know. I groan and nod.

"I knew my baby was going to face her one day!" she said joyfully, "Here take this," She shoved something into my hands. I held it up and looked at it.

It was a creepy necklace with a cube pendant. It was a little wooden cube with symbols all over it. It was a weird-ass piece of jewelry, if you ask me.

"Mom, this is a weird-ass necklace. What the hell am I supposed to do with it?" I asked. Mom bit her lip.

"Well, uh. You need to go through that door and the abandoned house. It will take you to a different universe, one that everyone knows about, but doesn't know exists," she said gravely. My eyes widened.

"You mean…"

"Yes."

"I'm going to Narnia?!" I said excitedly. That would be so cool!

"Uh, no. Anyways, you need to find a man with red eyes, he'll be able to help you," she said, and started pushing me towards the door. Jeez, pushy much?

Damn. I didn't know a stupid wooden house could look so scary. I was always the one who laughed at horror movies; I should be laughing my ass off!

'Alright, no use standing around' I thought, and shouldered my backpack. It had the essentials: clothes, toiletries, ect. It was like I was going on vacation. And Mom never did tell me what the necklace was for.

I was still grumbling about the lack of information when I got to the door. It was as silent as when I brought Sadie. I felt so guilty now. I should have listened to her. I should have—

"Ah, you're back. See, I knew you'd be back," that demon purred from somewhere in the room. I just about jumped out of my skin. Damn demon.

"Yeah, so what? I'm not letting you take over my body," I called, not sure of where she was. A laugh seem to come everywhere at once. I felt something touch my cheek.

"Dear girl, I can't do that until you open the door," she said sweetly, "So, go open it."

Mom told me to go open it. Maybe I should be quick, and not let her through. Damn, that wasn't going to work, she was a freaking spirit who seem to be everywhere.

"Fine. I will." I said and did something that would plunge my life into chaos.

I opened the fucking door.

Everything seemed to spin and swirl, like a top. I heard the demon cackle and something invading my mind-space. Seconds later, I blacked out.

I awoke in a heavily wooded area. The first thing I realized was that my head hurt real badly. I tried sitting up; I did this a little fast and I felt like passing out.

Second thing I realized, was that I could control my limbs. No demon took over my body. Sweet.

I sat up, more slowly this time, and reached for my pack, which was remarkably still with me. 'Hmm…Where to go?' I thought. Walking until I found civilization sounded best. I stood up, and started my journey in a random direction.

Turns out, it wasn't. I had been walking for hours (and was still in the forest), and I was hungry and thirsty. I was basically crawling when I smelled food.

"Must…get…food!" I panted, reaching for a tuft of grass. I heard something in the bushes and froze. I heard voices a few seconds later.

"Ne, ne, Zetsu-san. Tobi is sure he heard something!" an obnoxiously cute voice said insistently. It sounded familiar; where had I heard it?

"Tobi, there was nothing." Two different voices said. The second one sounded mean.

I decided to cry for help. I was just so hungry!

"H-hey! I'm over here!" I called in a strangled voice. I heard someone shout in surprise, and then crunching leaves.

The first one I saw was a guy in a black cloak and an orange mask. From what I could see, he had short black hair and…purple nail polish?

The second guy was uber weird. He had bi-colored skin and a venus fly trap on his head. If I weren't so weak I would've screamed and run..

"Ah, we've found someone, Zetsu-san! What'll we do with her?" Tobi, I'm assumed, asked.

"We could always eat her," Zetsu said, licking his lips. I gulped. Tobi, I guess, was shocked and kneeled beside me.

"Don't worry! Tobi won't let that happen," he said soothingly. My stomach growled and I remembered why I had called them over.

"Hey, could I get some food?"

While I was eating (charred fish; it needed salt) they interrogated me. During the first few questions, it was only Zetsu talking (it was weird talking to two people in the same body). Tobi butted in after a few minutes.

"Why are you here, Avery-chan?" Tobi asked. He even cocked his head to the side. How cute!

"'Cuz."

"Cuz why?"

"Cuz someone wants to control my body," I said all this evenly, but the anger boiled inside me. That 'someone' killed my best friend. I felt like I had an emo-cloud over my head as I thought about all this. I was thinking about a lot of evil things.

"Who?" Zetsu asked, while the black side of him said, "Is his name Orochimaru?"

"I don't know who! A fucking demon, okay!?" I shouted at them. The fire they had made to cook my food (and the food that I had smelled that led to our eventual meeting) flared, licking the branches of the tree above it. The two men and I stared at it in amazement. I gaped and the flaming leaves.

"Did I just do that?" I asked. Tobi turned to look at me, and then turned back to Zetsu.

"Zetsu-san," he said in a different voice, deeper and sexier, "We should take her to Pain."

Who the hell was Pain? And why were they taking me to him? I just about argued with them about it, but Tobi picked me up bridal style.

I yelped. "Put me down, you bipolar weirdo! I can walk!"

He chuckled a bit. "Me? Bipolar? And yes, you can walk, but it'd be much faster this way."

God, if only I knew how much these turn of events would change my life.

Thoughts? And a review or two please :D
