The Agreement
Shobek leaned back against the bedroom door. He hadn't left to find more soup. And frankly, he wasn't going to. Not since he was half-naked. He listened closely to what was happening inside the room and waited patiently for things to fall shockingly quiet. He slowly peeked his head inside and noticed Kasey curled up on the bed, her breathing soft and steady. He watched her for a moment longer before slipping into the room and closing the door. His steps were quiet as he walked to the wardrobe and pulled out a plain shirt. His eyes watched Kasey carefully as he slipped on the white, long-sleeved shirt. Afterward, he quickly left the room.
Next time, I'll try to hold back a bit more on the drinks... Shobek thought as he walked down the hall looking for the best cure for his head.
Four hours passed before Shobek started to make his way back to the room. His steps were lighter

Shobek sat carefully on the bed as he watched Kasey pace around the room. He could tell she wanted to ask more questions but was questioning whether she wanted to know. He wasn't surprised in the slightest about it. Shobek softly sighed and knocked his anxiety aside as he tried to ease Kasey's curiosity and fear. "Did you know... That I was created by humans?" Kasey look up surprised, she carefully inspected Shobek's sad expression as he stared at the ground. "Not biologically, but through their wishes and desires. That was how I came to be. Much like many other gods and demons." Kasey kept quiet as she slowly walked over to the couch and sat down, her eyes gently gazing at Shobeks slumped figure. "My name wasn't Shobek either. It was given to me after I...fell. I would say died, but, entities like me, cann
Mistakes of the Past Docked
Kasey blankly stared at Shobek as he slowly stood and walked to the hall door, his hand resting on the knob as he sighed. "When...I felt it, It took me six years to escape hell, and I searched everywhere. I could feel myself drawing closer to the key of freedom, and that's when I saw you. As soon as I met your eyes, it clicked. But in my frantic search, I didn't realize the king sent his dogs after me. I only got a glimpse of you before being dragged back down into the depths of hell. The king... was not happy. And I felt his wrath each day he came down into his dungeons to torment me. He let me go after three years. He said that since I led him to you, he had cut my six-year sentence in half. If I had known I was being followed, I never would have sought you out. But from my carelessness, you were targeted. And for that, I am truly sorry..." Kasey stared at Shobek in alarm, confusion racing through her
Mistakes of the Past Short Run-in
Shobek continued to lead Kasey through the streets of the red-light district quickly, but as they both neared the fly zone a sultry, smooth voice called out to him. Shobek froze for a brief moment before trying to urge Kasey onward. "Now, babe, is that any way to treat me? I haven't seen you around here for SO long..." Kasey peered back at the stranger who leaned against the door frame from one of the brothels. The man had a tilted smile resting on his face with sharp yellow eyes that were encircled with red eyeshadow. His smile grew as he moved away from the door frame, his undercut was mostly brown except that the front of his hair was white. Kasey slowly looked back at Shobek questionably as the slightly smaller-built man moved towards them. His walk was that of a model, a hand sliding into his gray jeans as his shrug jacket blew open to reveal a mesh shirt that allowed anyone to see a rose tattoo on his left pectoral. If Kasey hadn't already been aware of how sexy mo
Mistakes of the Past Limbo
The two flew in silence for a while before Shobek decided to get her mind on something else, "The place we are going to is going to look much nicer than what you have seen so far. Each person there isn't evil, but not all of them are entirely good. They are constantly replaying their lives over and over. Though they don't know that. This is why talking to them is strictly forbidden. They won't take notice of you unless you make contact first. So no matter what, don't touch anyone or talk to anyone." Kasey frowned, "they are reliving their lives?" Shobek hesitated, "more like they are repeating scenarios of their lives. They repeat the same scenario until they finally do something different, then they move to the next scene. Depending on how they handle the scenarios, they can move on to heaven or move into their next phase of hell. the scenarios they repeat are ones they had wished they handled differently. Although very rarely do the people ever move on. Most are there fo
Mistakes of the Past Broken
After Kasey finally calmed her body and mind down enough, she peered up at Shobek who had patiently been waiting for her to calm down, his hand running steady strokes down her back. "Better...?" Shobek looked down at her, his disheveled white hair falling into his eyes, and for a second, Kasey felt herself become stunned. Whether it was because he had sat there comforting her or the fact that his eyes held such a delicate look, her heart fluttered, lighting a bolt of butterflies to life in her stomach. Kasey slowly drew back suddenly feeling embarrassed about clinging to him, "yes.. thank you.." "Anything for you...How about you take a shower to relax? I'll find you some clothes... I'm sure there will be something lying around." Shobek shot the bathroom door a small glance, "unless Belasco is still a virgin..." Kasey jumped at the sound of a loud gasp coming from outside the bathroom door and became crimson when the door flung open as another man came into the
Mistakes of the Past Time
Ananta laid patiently beside Kasey. But after no movement, she looked at the young girl, whined, then nudged her. After no response, Ananta stepped over Kasey's still form and faced her. Slowly the human girl looked into the pale arctic blue eyes surrounded by black fur. After a moment, Kasey finally lifted her hand and started petting the dog. Ananta's tail wagged as she laid down, nuzzling up to Kasey's chest. Kasey's silent tears rolled down her cheeks as she lost the energy to pet the warm husky in front of her. But Ananta only whined until slowly, Kasey again started to run a hand down its soft coat. Ananta licked a tear on Kasey's cheek before laying its head back down, closing its eyes. A sob shook Kasey's body again as she hugged the dog tightly, letting the tears get lost in Ananta's black and white coat. Ananta didn't struggle and simply folded her ears back, letting the girl weep in peace. Shobek looked at the stairs for the fiftieth time and Belasco heavily sig
Mistakes of the Past Strength
Kasey's new life took off much quicker than expected. Wake up at six, get ready, eat by seven, then work on meditation and breathing till nine. Practice magic until twelve, eat lunch, then do combat training until five, having only short breaks between the course. Shobek watched each day, impressed with her increasing stamina and faster response times. Though she still had yet to beat Belasco, day by day, she was pushing through, getting closer each time. Belasco panted as he again blocked and dodged Kasey's endless attacks, jumping over another leg sweep, "let's take a break!" Kasey slowly stood back up, panting as she walked over to the outside table and picked up a towel to wipe off her sweat. "I think I almost had you there." Belasco paused then chuckled, "not quite sweets!" Belasco took a long swig of his drink as Shobek stepped outside. "No, she definitely had you there. You've gotten much weaker Belasco." Shobek walked over to the two with two cups of
Mistakes of the Past New Training
Kasey picked out a more comfortable outfit amongst the clothes Shobek ordered for her online through Belasco's account. Taking the outfit to the bathroom, Kasey quickly got in and washed from the day's grueling work. Her mind drifted to the time she let herself fall into her pit of depression, her body slowly growing limp as she stood under the water. No, not again... Kasey shook her head and continued to wash the shampoo out of her hair. After she was done she got out, dried off, and slipped into her underwear and the black sweatpants and lavender shirt she picked out. Quickly tying her hair back into a sloppy bun she headed back downstairs, patting Ananta on the head as she headed back outside. The two had stopped arguing by this time but a tense silence remained between the two. "How's the food coming?" Kasey slowly asked, hoping to NOT cause another fight. "Almost done," Shobek responded. Belasco mockingly mouthed what Shobek said. "I saw that," Shobe
