Episode 6

Dominic just clocked out of work. He left out of the building and started to walk home. While he was walking down a alley a spiritual ball crashed in front of him. He looked at the direction it was thrown. He saw two African American males. "Jarvis....Erik, what are you doing?” "Terence, told us you unlocked your demon slayer powers” said Jarvis. "We want to see how a demon slayer fights.” They both threw a spirit ball at him. Dominic rolled backwards. He summoned his demon slayer powers. He grasped his daggers. They both threw continuous spirit balls at Dominic. Dominic was deflecting them with his daggers. But then Jarvis Revolt Stepped behind Dominic. While still deflecting Erik spirit balls he sensed Jarvis behind him. Jarvis kicked him in his left ribs. Dominic begin to roll to his right. He soon stopped himself from rolling. He was laying on the ground on his back. But then he rolled to his left. Jarvis knee came crashing down into the spot Dominic was at. Dominic quickly stood back up.

But Erik Revolt Step in front of him and grabbed Dominic face. He begin to squeeze his face harder by each passing second. But then Dominic kneed Erik in the stomach. He let Dominic go. Dominic begin to stumble backwards. Jarvis slid into his legs. This knocks him off his feet. He hit the ground pretty hard. His face shows how much pain he's in. He then saw two big boots coming down to his face. He quickly rolled to his right and got on his knees. Erik and Jarvis looked at him after their attack. "Come on Mr. Demon Slayer. You suppose to be better than this” said Erik. "So us this hidden demon everyone in your clan has.” "I have no hidden demon. My blood is to diluted to have one.” Both of their face grew angry toward him. "Stop joking and bring your demon out” yelled Erik. Erik punched the ground with his right hand. Dominic sensed something under him. He jumped back. As soon as he did a streak of red spiritual energy rose into the air up to six feet. Jarvis revolt stepped behind him. He was about to punch Dominic in the back of his head.

Dominic ducked the attack. He then did a spinning back kick him in the left arm. He landed on his feet. He looked back and forth between the two. "So you're learning how to fight while fighting” said Jarvis. "You also trying to study us to learn more techniques. But you can't. Your bloodline won't allow you to learn the techniques of Mana Energy. So don't even try to learn. You're bloodline is a disgrace. They only thing good about you demon slayers is that inner demon.” "What is so special about this inner demon?” "When you summon the demon power it grants you increase performance in battle. But you also will lose a little of your humanity for using its power” said Erik. "It sounded to good to be true. Like I said my blood to the clan is to diluted to have a demon inside me. I'm only a eight of a demon slayer.” Jarvis and Erik looked at each other surprised. They got out of their fighting stance. "Terence didn't tell us that your blood was this diluted.” said Erik. "No wonder you sucked at fighting” said Jarvis.

Dominic reverted back into his normal cloths. His daggers disappeared as from thin air. Erik and Jarvis walked in front of him. "Sorry about that Dominic. We just wanted to fight a demon slayer. And when we found out you was one we had to fight you.” "Why fight a demon slayer for?” "Demon slayers are considered one of the strongest demon hunter groups in the world. Our Venator Daemonum is considered on par with the demon slayers though” said Erik. "Well, sorry to disappoint you two for not being a full breed.” "I should have known you won't a full breed. Cause to demon slayers their only purpose besides killing demons is to get stronger no matter what. They always strive to be stronger than everyone. They also ruthless when it comes to battles” said Jarvis. "How much is that is true?” "That's only what we heard. Demon slayers don't confront others that much. They live in solitude with their clan.”

Dominic turned his back towards them. "So this must be the reason why I prefer to be alone, huh. Anyway, I have something to do. I'll get back at you'll some other time.” Dominic begin to walk into the direction to his apartment. Erik and Jarvis Revolt Step away. It took Dominic five minutes to get to his apartment. He went inside and locked the door. He looked in the kitchen. He saw that Loredana was cooking. "What you cooking?” "Rice and chopped steak.” "That sounds good. I didn't know that you can cook.” "There's plenty of things that I can cook.” Dominic looked at the arm that suppose to be broken and noticed she can move it no problem. "I see that arm isn't bothering you now.” "I guess so. That means I'll be leaving soon.” "You're going back to your clan, huh.” "Yeah, I am.” "When you go I want to go.” "Why?” "I want to go see the other demon slayers.” "The other demon slayers might not welcome guest. Especially ones whose blood is diluted like yours.” "I don't care. I want to meet the ones who's blood course through my veins.” "Alright, your funeral.”

Dominic sat at a chair by the table. He begins to think about what Erik and Jarvis said. "Is it true that besides killing demon slayers only care about getting stronger?” "Not to all of us. Cause half of demon slayers use their powers to heal. The ones that do fight does. But our reason is to make sure our clan can stay protected. Also so no demon can surpass or strength. That way we can protect this planet of ours.” "I see. I have a question for you.” "What is it?” "How's your family Loredana?” "Like any other family. Why ask a dumb question like that?” "I thought probably demon slayers families are different. Since all we do is fight demons and such.” "Our lifestyles is the same as everyone else.” "So who is this guardian Terence talked about. I forgot to ask.” "He's the leader of the demon slayer clan. And he's the strongest of all demon slayers. He is also the very embodiment of us demon slayers. He's the heart and soul of our very being.”

"That is to much to say about one man.” "This one man had protected our clan from the deepest threats for years. He's also the kindest man I ever knew. I want to become like him when I get stronger.” "How strong is this man?” "Imagine our spiritual pressures together and triple that.” "I can't imagine anyone that strong.” "Well, believe it. Cause he's our protector. If anyone meets him is a honor.” "Did you meet him before?” "Once when I was a kid..” "How old are you?” "I'm twenty-one. How old are you Dominic?” "Twenty-two.” "So you're a year older than me. Is this the reason why your spirit energy is so strong?” "I doubt age has anything to do with it. That wouldn't make sense.”

"Yeah, you're right. But it has to be a reason why. Not even half breeds are as strong as full breeds when our demon slayers powers are released.” "Maybe I'm just special.” "I doubt it. Before I met you there was nothing special about you. You was just a plain human.” "You didn't have to say it like that.” "it's the truth.” Loredana put the meat in the deep pot of rice. She begin to stir the meat around in the rice. She then turned off the stove. She took out two bowls from out of the cabinet. She filled the bowls up with the rice and meat. She sat one in front of Dominic at the table. She sat in a chair opposite of him. They begin to eat. "This is good. You're a better cook than I first thought.” "Don't judge a book by its cover.” "I could say the same to you.” She grew quiet. They begin to eat their food quietly. They didn't speak one word to each other. Loredana begin to think about how much time she has left before she has to leave Dominic.
