Y/N have been tossing and turning in their sleep. The Moonlight shun through the clear window that had once been covered by their curtains. The sound of their neighbors making nosies irritated them.

The young Man/Women/Person sat up on their bed and groaned. They got out of their bed and walked into the small living room of their apartment. They rented this apartment alone with no help from a family member or roommate, mostly depending on their paycheck to pay off the fees.

Bowls of empty Ramen scattered the room, Y/N sighed, knowing they had to clean up tomorrow morning and find a new job that pays more than their old one.

But dealing with the neighbors from upstairs.

Y/N puts on their pajama pants and grabbed their robe, quickly putting it on. They opened their door and walked out and headed to the elevator. Stepping inside the lift and pressing a button, it goes up in no time. The light irritates Y/N's eyes. The elevator dinged sliding the doors open, Y/N walked out and headed towards their neighbors but stopped.

There's no noises coming from them or any of the other rooms. Y/N's dull e/c went to the elevator, and their mind wandered. 'What were the noises coming from??? Who are making them?? Am I going crazy??' They thought the noises they heard earlier came from their room under their socked feet. In a panic, they ran to the elevator, thinking it's burglars stealing their precious possessions. The lift dinged again, and Y/N raced out towards their home. They stopped and took out their phone.

Dialing the police and waiting for an answer.

"Hello?" They heard a voice from the other line.
"Hi! This is Y/N L/N, and I'm outside my apartment hearing noises from inside my home." Y/N said, their voice trembling.
"Ok, stay where you are. L/N, police are on their way." The lady said. Y/N thanked her, but their mind wandered again, and it's like they have an urge to go in their apartment.

Y/N opened their door and walked in. Quickly grabbing an umbrella as a weapon and holding it like it was some kind of sword. The noises came from the kitchen, and the sound of munching and ripping was loud. Taking quiet steps Y/N made it to the kitchen. Their eyes widen at the sight of a beast going through their food stock and their fridge.

The beast was tall, about 7 or maybe 8 or more feet tall with a thin demon like tail swaying side to side. The tail had red and cyan colors on it with an arrow tip. The creature had horns one smaller than the other. And a piercing on its left side. They seemed to be wearing a cape or cloak with white fur with black spotting on it like what kings or Queens wear.

Having the courage, Y/N yelled at the creature. Phone and umbrella in hand still. "H-Hey! What do you think you're doing?!" They stuttered. Y/N gulped as they saw the creature turn its head at them, revealing a green glow from their eyes. The creatures face had a cyan spade on it's forehead and looked like they had cyan dots under their eyes with a red stripe under the dots.

"L/N?? Who are you talking to? Are you ok??" The lady from the other line asked.

"I see someone o-or something in my kitchen.." Y/N responded they tremble as they watch the creature staring at them with those green eyes. The beast dropped the food they were munching on and walked towards Y/N smaller frame.

"Is it a person or an animal??" The lady asked. Y/N didn't answer they just stared at the creature who came to them. The beast rested their claws on their phone and answered.

"False alarm. My dog was making a mess in my kitchen. Sorry to bother you." The creatured said, mimicking Y/N's voice. The creature hung up and grabbed Y/N's phone from them.

"What are you..?" Y/N managed to ask, their s/c soaked with their cold sweat, and their e/c widened at the taller standing before them.

The beast turned on the lights with their long tail, and they stood up tall, their horns touching the ceiling.
"I'm your demon! My name is Whirl, and I've chosen you on a special quest!" He answered. The demon went back to munching on Y/N's only chips they bought from the store. He ate them with his none existing jaw.

"You're my demon??? Does anyone else see you??? Or just me?" Y/N asked. They were so confused and terrified at the same time. Yet again, questioning about life itself.

"No, you can only see me. I can interact with things like a ghost, and I can even mimic and possess people if I can." He responded. Whirl closed the bag and put a pin on it, letting no air in the chip bag.

"Adventure time!" Whirl said. He grabbed Y/N's s/c wrist and pulled them towards him.

"Wait, wait! What are you doing?!" Y/N yelled, Whirl hushed them, and his gloved claws covered Y/N's dull e/c eyes.
