Akira was travelling on the train. He was sitting on a 3 person seat, its back facing the cart's windows. He was trying not to show how deeply he has been disturbed from recent events.

He kept his head right-ways trying to evade the situation in the opposite seat. It was not easy considering the moans of pleasure and sounds of the intercourse activity. At first everything looked normal. There was a young, well dressed woman in her 20s sitting in the 3 seater in from of him. The woman was reading a book. Akira didn't pay her much attention. At one moment 2 men, also in a official attires approached the woman and told her something. Akira immediately felt the evil auras:

"Identify" "Identify"

Demon larvae lv 6 healthy Demon larvae lv 8 healthy

He gripped his knife inside the jacket's pocket and looked at his resources

Mana 80/100 HP 50/50

Luckily the spider men fully ignored him and were focused on the woman. At one point the younger one, dropped his pants and sat on the seat. The woman stood up, lifted her skirt above the waistline and dropped her panties to her knees. ..... What followed was 15 minutes wild sex.

When those spiderman finished their job, they simply left on the next station.

Akira looked cautiously at the woman's face. It was covered with a green colored cum, but fortunately there was not any blood. The woman's gaze was intoxicated and she was smiling. In about 10 minutes the woman refocused, cleaned herself with some paper towels, made herself presentable and left hurriedly at the next train station. Of course none of the other people in the cart paid any attention.

Akira could not fathom what is happening, but he made some educated conclusions:

1. Larvae attacked only males

2. All public display of depravity included a spider man and human females

3. People totally ignored the situations as a non existent or perfectly acceptable

4. The spiderman produced some kind of drug or spell which put the females into a delirium, rendering them helpless.

5. The process could be lethal or not for the female. Conditions unknown

He decided to discuss this with Kornelius first time tomorrow.

Late afternoon, Akira arrived at a front gate of a large 2 story house. It was surrounded by 2 meter solid stone fence. The front gate massive wood with with beautiful decoration of dragons.

He checked again if the house address matched the student's card. And picked the dragon plush toy. It was easier to notice it was not a plush toy but a key holder being heavier, and dense. He opened the toys zippier and took out several keys. After some fiddling with the front gate, it opened revealing a decent size front lawn and a paved track leading to the main house door. The house was relatively large, modern style 2 story building concrete and glass construction.

"Akira's family must be a well off. I know the prices of land in big cities being astronomical. Although it is a suburban area considering how much I traveled with the train"

Akira stood in front of the door. His hand holding the door handle. He was still fortifying himself for the meeting with Akira's parents. He knew it was critical to blend in, if his cover was blown he knew the demons will get him in no time.

"OK , I enter, I greet them politely, Excuse myself being tired and quickly proceed to my room. It should be on the second floor where bedroom are usually situated in this type of facilities."

"I am a predator, I feel no fear, but my foes fear me, I am the Exorcist the Demon's bane" Akira recited in order to rise his motivation.

And it kinda worked. He unlocked the door and entered a small lobby.

"TADAIMA" announced Akira, waiting for response

"TADAIMA!" he shouted again a little bit louder. Still nothing

Stolen from its rightful author, this tale is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings.

"It looks, no one is home, phew. It will make things easier. I need to hole up to gather my shit together" Said Akira watching his hands slightly trebling. His voice of reason telling him that his mental state becoming critical.

"And a shower. I stink like blood, sweat, and piss." Akira's face grimaced when he smelled his shirt.

"Ok, first establish a secure perimeter, familiarize with surroundings and... eat?? His stomach gurgled again. "

What's with that huge appetite. I've eaten a solid meal like 2 hours ago. Strange.."

He was in a 3 meters wide foyer. There was a shoe rack on the right. "Right the shoes".

He took off his dirty sneаkers and put them on the rack. Then put Akira's slippers on. They were easy to identify, being the only pink, plush bunnies.

Moving on, he opened the door on the left, revealing a spacious living room with cosy furniture, fireplace and a big TV . The old tube type like in the 80's. The door in front revealed spacious kitchen/living room with kitchen isle and big dining table. There was another door in the kitchen probably leading to the back yard.

On the right side the foyer connected to a small corridor ending with wide spiral staircase going up to the second floor and down to a basement floor. The door of the corridor led to a 2 cars size empty garage. Akira moved to the second floor. He found 2 master bedrooms each with bathroom attached and the late Akira's personal room

It was a teenage girl styled. There was a lot of plush toys, few posters of unknown bands, a studding desk with a desk light, big wardrobe and a standard bed. A wide window with frilly blue curtains on top of the desk. He opened the window seeing it facing the back yard.

A door in the right of the room led to a moderate size bathroom with a shower, toilet and sink. There was a large mirror on the back side of the bathroom door.

"So this is it. My first base of operation. Here I am sitting in the chair of a deceased teenage girl whose body i stole and will be usurping her possessions, her life, her family. This is how far I have fallen in order to save my family".

Akira was sitting on a office chair, hands on the desk resting her head and pondering. While thinking this and that Akira fell asleep.

Akira found himself in the same starting spot of his nightmare.

.....

Tom shut and locked the door the same way as the previous nightmare.

"Let me in, Tom"

No

Let us let us in...

No way

please, Tom

no

please, Tom it hurts. it hurts ...

...... (Tom)

The demon Tom, it hurt us. The pain....

Tom heard a girl crying on the other side....

Tom's hand slowly rose up and unlocked the door. He opened and saw faceless Akiras standing there:

LET US IN they screamed in unison

Akira opened his eyes, It was already dark. Faint moonlight and weak street light in the distant providing the only illumination.

"Why those ghosts won't leave me alone? It is not my fault I took her body. NOT MY FAULT, you hear me ghost!"

He was cold sweating.

"A shower. It will help".. Akira mechanically stripped leaving only the underwear on and moved to the bathroom.When he shut the bathroom door he finally saw his new body and face.

Akira was a slender, a bit skinny but well defined hourglass figure, Height at about 1.60m. A moderate B cup chest, neck cut black hair, and beautiful green eyes.

The unknown half naked girl was staring at Akira from the mirror. She had tears bulging from her eyes. Akira put his hand on the mirror like trying to reach the girl crying there.

"The demon hurt you, didn't it? You were in pain. The pain i know it, I have felt it too. So did the lady in the park. The demon hurt her badly. But I have avenged you, I killed the demon. I killed it.. Then I killed the demon that hurt that lady. Yes. I put the knife in his neck. I killed him... And there was a lot of blood. It was scary, Akira!"

"You were not supposed to die this young, Akira. No one should die like this... It is wrong.... And the lady too. I know I should have tried to save her, but instead I played with the demon. While she was dying alone on that bench, I was eating food and relaxing on a bench. I have failed her. I have failed to save you too Akira....

"Don't cry Akira. I know you are alone, I am alone too. My family is far away, Akira. There is no one here for me, for us.. Sob..Sob....

"I .. I can't breath Akira..."

Akira slumped on the floor in a fetal position. Sobbing loudly.

"Caroline are you there? Will you hold me please. I .. I need you Caroline. Sob...Please Caroline at least hold ..sob ...my hand .. Aaaghh"

Unfortunately there was no one to respond to his pleas.

So Akira kept crying on the cold bathroom floor for unknown amount of time.

......

Long time since the tears dried, Akira slowly raised from the floor. Primal urge of thirst made him drink the water from the taps.

It was a sad story to see a grown man cry as a little girl, but miraculously it helped. Like a pressure valve have released the pent up stress and Akira was feeling better, not great, but better.

He was supporting himself on the sink and his legs still slightly shaking.

"I have hit the rock bottom, haven't I? To think I will have a panic attack at this age. Tz."

He took several long breaths.

"But the people say that when you hit the bottom the only way left is up! So you just need to make the step"

Akira removed his bra and panties. The panties having very little fabric and a way too revealing for his conservative mind went to the garbage bin.

"I am not wearing this kind of kinky stuff. Nope. I have my dignity"

Then he went into the shower cabin and begin to wash. He quickly washed his entire body, even the special parts. He knew that hygiene is important for a healthy woman. But he did not look at, while washing. It felt like peeking into the girls showers, so he closed his eyes at those embarrassing moments. Once the washing ended, he remained standing enjoying the warm water spreading over his body. It was a relaxing experience, the grime, the smell, the aches of laying on a cold tiled floor washing away. It was so much soothing the Akira's troubled mind, he almost felt asleep.

He exited the bathroom wearing a towel man style. When his pink nipples erected from the cold night air Akira realized that towel is not supposed to be put that way. Remembering Caroline's after bathing rituals, he tried to the best extent to recreate them. And he did succeed albeit with a lot of effort and mistakes. With a fresh wear of underwear ( the most modest one) he found in the wardrobe and a pink bunny pyjama, Akira fell asleep in the bed embracing a huge plush dragon toy.
