Demons: Chapter 8

Hey Guys! I know this part is a little weird and short, plus the story is moving quickly but yeah... ttyl..

        Kayla stares blankly at the cold, hard earth around her. She is curled into yet another ball in the corner, her blonde hair hanging down on the sides of her face and half over her right eye. Twenty minutes have passed since Alby locked the Slammer.

Her toes on her injured foot are curled in the cold, her other boot lay sideways in her ball. Her breath shaky, Kayla uses this time to recall any memories she can pull out of the oblivion inside of her.

Suddenly, a seed sprouts. A song. She remembers. The tune makes its way into her mind and lyrics follow. In a matter of minutes, she can recall a whole song, and she starts singing.

When the days are coldAnd the cards all foldAnd the saints we seeAre all made of gold

When your dreams all failAnd the ones we hailAre the worst of allAnd the blood’s run stale

I wanna hide the truthI wanna shelter youBut with the beast insideThere’s nowhere we can hide

No matter what we breedWe still are made of greedThis is my kingdom comeThis is my kingdom come

When you feel my heatLook into my eyesIt’s where my demons hide.It’s where my demons hide.Don’t get too closeIt’s dark insideIt’s where my demons hide!It’s where my demons hide!

At the curtain’s callIt's the last of allWhen the lights fade outAll the sinners crawl

So they dug your graveAnd the masqueradeWill come calling outAt the mess you made

Don't wanna let you downBut I am hell boundThough this is all for youDon't wanna hide the truth

No matter what we breedWe still are made of greedThis is my kingdom come!This is my kingdom come!

When you feel my heatLook into my eyesIt’s where my demons hide!It’s where my demons hide!Don’t get too closeIt’s dark insideIt’s where my demons hide!It’s where my demons hide!

They say it's what you makeI say it's up to fateIt's woven in my soulI need to let you go

Your eyes, they shine so brightI wanna save that lightI can't escape this nowUnless you show me how!

When you feel my heatLook into my eyesIt’s where my demons hide!It’s where my demons hide!Don’t get too closeIt’s dark insideIt’s where my demons hide.It’s where my demons hide...

"Quite a voice you got there."

Kayla freezes and looks up. Newts crouching outside, his bad arm holding onto the Slammer bars.

"Um hi.."

"Hey."

Newt turns to the left and grabs something, then puts his arm through the Slammer bars, in his hand another cheese sandwich. "Thought you might be hungry."

She takes it and sets it on the ground beside her. "Thanks, but no thanks.."

Newt sighs and then peers closer into the darkness of the Slammer. "Wait... hold on a bloody second."

"What?"

"Your face! What happened!"

Kayla swallows. "Nothing.."

"I thought you were in here for just like... I don't know maybe you did something bad, but tell me what bloody happened!"

"Gally and I got into a fight... he punched me and stuff so I got mad. Then it turned serious and Alby put me in here."

Newt's gaze hardens and he gets up, running off. 

"Newt, wait!!!"

Hes gone.

NEWT'S POV:

I'm gonna bloody kill that shuck-face.

Newt's boots thump on the ground as he runs over to the new sleeping area, where Gally is currently nailing a wooden board to a flat base. 

"HEY, SLINTHEAD!"

Newt grabs his left shoulder and spins him around, slamming his back into the Glade wall. 

"You bloody hurt Kayla!!?!!?!" Newt's spit sprays Gally's face as he yells.

"What do you care, shank!"

Newt presses Gally harder into the stone wall. 

"Don't you EVER touch her again!! You hear me!?!!?"

Someone grabs Newt's shirt and pulls him off Gally. Alby. Newt turns and sees Chuck running up behind him. 

"Listen, lover boy, Kayla's fine-"

"I bet a night in the Maze that that shuck-face started it!"

Alby nods. "I know, I know-"

"Then why the bloody hell is that poor girl the one in the Slammer!??!?!"

Alby rubs his eyes. "Listen, she's only there because I need somewhere I know where she is so we can have a meeting tonight."

"You all are bloody insane."

With that, Newt pushes past Alby and the now panting Chuck, walking towards the Deadheads.

Sorry this is insanely short but I had to go to my Grandma's.... Yeah.
