Johnathan awoke to a buzzing sound coming from the speaker over head. He groaned loudly, rolling over and snuggling down into the covers even more; he didn't order a wake up call!

The buzzing subsided, but its annoying effect lingered. He couldn't fall back asleep after that. Johnathan groaned a final time before sitting up and dragging himself out of bed.. He noticed that the others were doing the same all except for Nia who was already up and dressed?

A little while later everyone's doctors turned up and led them along a few halls to a large room with the walls painted all soothing reds and deep grey's. Johnathan stepped into the room as well as everyone else. He was made to sit down and it was only then that he noticed that Sock wasn't with him.

"Johnathan!" He heard the little demon cry out, ah there we go.

Johnathan turned his head towards the entrance making it look like he was just checking out the room. He spotted Sock and wondered why he wasn't coming in. Sock seemed to be doing this thing with his hands that was like what mimes do when they pretend to be inside an invisible box. Whenever the little demon placed his hand on a specific place there was a little ripple. A… Force field?

A small cough called Johnathan's attention back to the front of the room where an old man that seemed to be graying was stood in long dark colored robes.

In his left hand he held a leather covered book which had the world "BIBLE" written in gold on it. He coughed again before opening the book on a bookmarked page and reciting from the text.

"Johnathan!" He heard Sock again it sounded like he was freaking out a little. The man started to read the first line from the passage.

It was a blessing. The man asked everyone up so as they could be blessed, everyone stood up and made their way to the front. Johnathan felt awkward not going and so he followed everyone up.

"Johnathan! DONT!" Socks voice sounded desperate, why would Sock be telling him not to go up?

Johnathan stood behind Nia waiting to be blessed. She looked relieved when the man drew a cross in holy water on her forehead. She sighed and went to sit back down. The man pointed to Johnathan making a signal with his hands telling him to kneel. He obeyed.

"Johnathan please don't!" Sock cried out. The man placed his hand into the water and drew a cross onto Johnathan's forehead. Johnathan lurched backwards slightly; it stung, the holy water stung, was it supposed to do that? He heard Sock scream in pain but Johnathan didn't dare to turn around.

The man just reached forward slightly and drew the rest of the cross onto Johnathan's forehead. Sock cried out again, screaming like he was being scorched with fire or something.

Johnathan stood up a little quicker than he thought was natural and turned to go back to his seat.

His took a glance to where Sock had been only his little demon wasn't there anymore. A monster stood in his place. It screamed and writhed in pain clutching its head.

It had long slender bat wings that were blood red in colour with flecks of gold running through its scales. Long slender claws erupted from its hands that were pitch black. Strange green smoke seemed to come from its mouth and eyes standing out from the black pools of nothing that made up its fangs and irises.

It stood there breathing heavily, before glancing up and meeting Johnathan's eyes.

"Johnathan…" It said, its voice was all garbled and demonic. The blond haired boys eyes widened when it said his name. The moment it had done this it began to shrink and fold in on itself changing and shape shifting into something that seemed more human. After it was done it reviled the form of a little hat wearing demon that Johnathan recognised.

Sock looked exhausted, he didn't bother getting up from the curled up position he had balled himself into during the transformation. Johnathan could plainly see that he was breathing heavily. What had just happened?

Before Johnathan could make any theories his doctor grabbed him by the arm and dragged him out of the room from a different exit at the other end.

"S…" Johnathan nearly called out the little demon's name but was able to stop himself before he did. The blonde managed to pull himself out of the female doctors grasp and make his way over to where lil was walking. His doctor gave him a look but didn't protest when she saw he was only going over to the purple haired girl.

lil looked at Johnathan and automatically understood the expression on his face. She gave a quick glance to the doctors around them and when none were looking she mouthed the word 'Sock?' to Johnathan.

Johnathan shook his head lightly biting his lip. Was Sock ok? Could he find him again? God! Could he even get up?

He swallowed hard, he thought he would be happy when the little Demon finally left him alone but this was worse than hell itself, especially how Sock had advertised it.

lil, frowned at Johnathan's expression. She reached out and grasped his hand in a small form of comfort. It worked and Johnathan began to rationalise at the feeling of warmth and safety that radiated from where their hands met.

Sock would find him! There was no doubt about that, the demon would never, EVER miss out on a chance to do his job. It gave him too much pleasure to see him annoying Johnathan to the end of his, oh so fragile thread. Yes; Sock would catch up and they would both laugh about what happened.

Johnathan looked at lil and smiled a half, tired smile. She replied with a smile of her own and they both made their way down the halls.
