A demon awakes,

So evil and daunting…

The most wicked of devils.

This creature has been locked away for 20 years.

He violated me when I was a child,

And he raped a helpless little boy.

He has been serving his sentence ever since.

But now… he is released.



I'm so afraid.

I feel like a child again,

So easily overpowered…

Helpless…

Vulnerable.

Will he come after me again?

What would I do?

Would I be able to defend myself this time?

What about my children?

Will I be able to protect them?

My mother couldn't protect me.



If this demon were a stranger,

Maybe I wouldn't be so afraid.

This demon,

This fiend who ripped my childhood away from me…

Is my brother.

And I feel like he will always be there…

Lurking in the Shadows…

Waiting for me.



A demon awakes…
