(Artblock has been kicking my butt big time, so here’s a small something to help)


~~~~~~~~~Story time~~~~~~~~~

Gabe couldn’t remember at what point Gaze had decided to take over, or why. But whatever Gaze had done while he was out of it, there were now military officials chasing him down with heavy firearms. At the moment, he was in partial control, hence why he was running and not letting Gaze have his way by absolutely mauling them. And given how he felt a deep, bubbling rage in the pit of his stomach, Gaze would be ripping them to shreds. However, as he proceeded down the tunnels beneath the city towards the blinding light that was the exit, he could feel his hold slipping. ‘Just a little longer, no one has to get hurt, and we can hide out somewhere.’ They were so close-

Bang bang bang bang!

The repetitive noise of an assault rifle going off nearly gave Gabe a heart attack, if it wasn’t Gaze’s body he was co-piloting. “Freeze!” A loud, booming voice of one of the soldiers echoed along the walls, but Gabe kept running. At least, he thought he was for the first three seconds of Gaze coming to a halt, keeping his back to the rapidly approaching footsteps. ‘Gaze, Gaze, what are you doing?! They’re going to shoot you! Move!!’
Came the panicked voice of Gabe in the back of their shared subconscious. He was met with silence, before a deep growl belonging to his Inner Demon rumbled in his chest. Yup, those soldiers were going to die. Knowing it would be futile to even try to reason with the increasingly boiling demon, he made a noise that could only be described as the image of throwing one’s arms in the air in an “I tried” manner. When the sounds of the soldiers filing into the obtuse part of the tunnels met their ears, bit by bit, Gabe was giving more control over to Gaze to do as he pleased.
“Turn around! Hands in the air, now!” Hollered a different voice as red dots swarmed over the towering entity’s body.

At first, Gaze did as he was told, slowly turning to face the armored men. But, only when he was facing them entirely, did Gabe hand off full free roam for his demonic alter. Baring his teeth, his pupils constricted in rage as he brought a claw up, but it was definitely not to surrender.
Voice transitioning from Gabe’s even-leveled tone to Gaze’s more harsh, disorienting voice, the last words they uttered were all the warning given before there was a blur of purple fur tearing flesh off the bone.

“You should’ve left us alone.”

Something for my InnerDemons!AU that I have really needed to do some more of. For a little context, in this AU, at least 20% of the population has something called an Inner Demon, which is a physical manifestation of something negative, they’re a lot like symbiotes, essentially. Some are stronger and some weaker. Gabe has Gaze as an Inner Demon, and is considered to be a Threat Level Beta, which is the second most dangerous form of demon, though he’s just on the edge of a Threat Level Alpha, so he’s ✨special✨
Inner Demons can either have their own personality, or one similar to their “host”. In this case, Gaze has his own personality different from Gabe. Not everyone accepts Inner Demons, though, often fearing and hating them, hence this scenario where Gaze is about to go berserk on some people from the military who are hunting him down.
It doesn’t go very well for the soldiers.
