I sighed and closed the book that I was reading a minute ago.
I stood up and grabbed the book and held it.
I walked back to put the book in its previous spot and exited myself from the library.
Once I was outside the large building full of books, it was already dark.
I started to walk back to my apartment. While walking I walked past an alleyway.
I noticed something from the corner of my eyes, there was a glowing red light inside the dark alley.
My eyebrows furrowed and curiosity got the best of me. I slowly walked towards the red light. Once I've reached it the glowing seemed to stop. My head slightly tilted, giving out a confused look.
There was a journal on the ground. There were other things surrounding the journal; pieces of papers, a broken pen with ink spill surrounding the pen, and some dry red liquid splattered on the ground. Is this blood?
My eyes widened seeing the red splatter. The red liquid looked dry, but I turned my attention back to the journal. The journal looked absolutely wrecked.
I crouched down to get a better view;

Hmmm, this journal looks really pretty. Well reading it won't hurt..right¿ I'll return this back, once I've done snooping around others privacy. No, I shouldn't do this. This is not my property.
I put back the journal and was about to stand but I heard whispering.
"Take the journal." "Take the journal." "Take the journal."
It kept on repeating and I couldn't stand it, I quickly took the journal and ran out of the alleyway.
What the hell?
I stopped running and took my time to breathe properly. Once my breathing was normal, I continued to walk back to my apartment.
On my way to my apartment, I got startled at a branch breaking. I quickly looked behind me and my heart dropped. A black silhouette towering over me. I didn't think twice and started running. I heard footsteps behind me getting faster. My heart is pounding so fast, sweat was starting to form on my forehead. I ran past another alleyway, I quickly turned back and went inside the alleyway to rest and hide from that stranger, once I was inside, I quickly hid behind the dumpster.
My breathing was heavy.
"I know you're here. Just come out so we can make this shit easy for both of us." A deep voice echoed inside the alleyway. I covered my mouth and put my hand on top of my chest where my heart is located, my heart was pounding so fast right now.
He was getting near the back of the dumpster, I gathered all my courage and grabbed the journal and threw it at him. Lucky me it hit his face hard. I ran towards him and grabbed the journal again. Hitting him in the face a thousand times. He kicked my stomach and I lose hold of the journal. I fell down on the floor and held my stomach. I noticed the journal fell to the ground and the stranger slowly standing.
Welp, this is the end of me.
I turned my attention towards the journal and my eyes started to widen. The journal opening by itself and turning it to random pages. I gasped and the person looks to where I was looking at. His expression is the same as mine now.
The journal started to shake and red smoke was coming out of the open page. The smoke started the become thicker and forming into a man, however, the man has horns and a tail.
A demon!
"What the hell is this fuckery." The person mumbled, he ran towards the book. The man that was once a red smoke looked at the stranger that was running towards him. His blank expression turned into a scowl. The whites of his eyes turned into red, his pupils disappeared.
He lifts up his arm at the stranger that was running towards him. The stranger stopped and wrapped his own hands around his neck. The man's pupils disappeared.
I covered my mouth and saw a red smoke coming out from the man's mouth. The red smoke forming into a dark red sphere. The man that once was a red smoke claimed the sphere. I saw the man slowly kneeled and fell onto the ground.
This is my chance!
I stood up and ran out of the alleyway.
I didn't look back, I was too traumatized.
Finally, I reached my apartment. I quickly went inside.
Once I've reached my room, I quickly locked the door and leaned against the door. I closed my eyes and adjust my breathing.
I slowly opened my eyes; my eyes widening at the sight.
