The Hanta Raya demon’s voice was always so unsettling coming out of her mouth.
“Your demon is far more powerful than any Hanta Raya I’ve ever felt,” Jahi said.
“My Hanta has kicked a lot of demon ass in the six months I’ve been a hunter, yet you all still come to harass the rookie and I keep blowing you to smithereens. Why is that, Jahi?”
Before the demon could answer, Enocha rose from the woman, flipped Denny off, and vanished.
“Where...what...where am I?” the now-empty host asked, looking wide-eyed at Denny.
Denny pointed to the bus station on the corner. “You just got a little lost. Wait for the next bus to come take you home. You’ll be fine.”
The bewildered woman walked away, stopping to look down at her clothes. “Why...why am I dressed like a hooker?”
Denny shrugged, “Costume party?”
When the woman continued to the bus stop, Denny focused back on the shadow. “I may be a rookie, Jahi, but my Hanta is almost a thousand years old. I think it’s time you gave my demon the respect it deserves.”
The black shadow slowly began to fade. “You are an enigma, Golden Silver, both at peace with your own demon and at war with the rest. I bid you adieu and wish you luck with your Hanta. You are going to need it.” With that, Jahi disappeared, leaving Denny in the near darkness of a deserted street.
“Well, I suppose our work is done for the night. How ’bout we put this in the book as a successful extraction and go get laid?”
There were other perks as well, of course, such as greater strength and faster healing abilities, but the best part? The best part was knowing at the end of the night, there was one less asshole roaming the streets.
And that was good enough for her.
