First off this is my first story at the time it was written as a goofy idea that turned out much better than I would have expected. With a great deal of help to Moonflower1980, who was kind enough to help me with editing this story into something that would be an enjoyable read.
I hope you enjoy the story and do leave a comment on the story and whether or not you liked it.
This will improve my skills in future stories.
Hello, my name is Morty, well actually it is a bit longer and harder to pronounce so I'll stick with Morty. I am a demon in every imaginable sense of the word, and I'd like to clear the air a bit here. Hell isn't such a bad place, trust me, I was born there hehe. My tale is of something surprising that happened to me in one of my short trips to your realm.
It was a clear moonlit night with such clear skies, you could easily count the stars. I had always liked the night sky, dark yet, like a warm blanket. I walked around among the human souls as one of them, my human form rather nicely chosen. Jet black hair that reached halfway down my back, broad shoulders and a large chest with muscle tone that most men could only dream of having. (One benefit of being a demon is I get to choose what I look like - in my case I chose only to go without my tail and the spikes, though I was rather reluctant to be without them.) But back to the story. I chose to be an even 6 ft tall and, for a little laugh, had endowed myself with more than average sized equipment.
As I walked down a particularly dark street I saw a woman running towards me and screaming so loudly I couldn't make out what she was screaming but, when I saw two large figures coming after her, I understood what she was running from. She ran up to me and begged me for help.
"Please, mister you've got to help me." she said
I looked down at her fragile form and just smiled as if trying to comfort her. She was about 5 ft 6 with bright eyes that glistened in the moonlight - I couldn't see what color they were due to the night, but I did get to see that she had a very lovely figure. A slim waist and nicely curved hips that were supported by strong thighs. All this was topped off by an angelic almost childishly cute face topped with a head of hair that came to just past her shoulders.
She threw her arms around me and I felt a strange yet not unpleasant sensation in what I could only describe as my heart; a feeling of pride and anger but also caring and courage. I waved my hand with spread fingers over her tear streaked face and uttered the word "sleep" at which she promptly fell asleep in my arms. I lay her down gently on the pavement and looked up at the approaching figures. They came to a halt less then 6 feet away from me, rather out of breath, as they came to claim their prey and prize.
"Who the fuck are you?" the taller one demanded.
" Well, my name would be Morty, but I do not see what that would have to do with the likes of you" I replied in a quiet but deep voice.
"The bitch is ours and she will come with us" said the shorter of the two men – the one who also seemed to have the bigger mouth. " No" was all I said, at which the two of then came at me with their knives drawn.
I chose to show them what I really was and showed them my true form, which stopped them in their tracks. Two horrified faces stared at me as I reached out and grabbed them both by their throats and held them up for a closer inspection.
" Hmmm, how nice this is, I haven't eaten in days and am feeling a bit hungry so if you do not wish to become my supper, I do believe it would be wise for you to leave this female to me." I said with a hungry grin on my demonic face.
"No way, the bitch is ours" was the reply at which I placed my thumb on their chins and proceeded to snap their fragile necks and let them fall to the ground. I turned around and knelt at the female's side. I was not sure what to do, but all I wanted to do at that moment was to take her somewhere safe. I picked her up after returning to my human form, but found that she was wide awake. 'I have to learn to control that sleep thing better' I thought to myself.
"Please don't hurt me" she cried.
"There is no need to worry" I said, "no harm will come to you on this night. Now tell me, where do you live?" I asked.
"Three blocks away in an apartment building." she spoke with a fearful shiver in her voice.
"Then I shall take you there, you need not worry... all will be explained in due course" I said - this seemed to comfort her slightly and she led the way to her building. When she opened the door to her apartment, to my shock, she invited me in.
"Okay, what just happened there and what are you?" she suddenly asked in a strong determined voice.
"Killed them, saved you, and I'm a demon" I responded.
"Don't lie to me, tell me the truth or I'll call the police." she retorted, a look of disbelief on her face.
" Hmmm," I muttered to myself, "it seems ignorance truly is bliss"
"What are you talking about?" she demanded to know.
