"I told you to get out of my life 3 years ago!!! OMG nobody ever listens to me!!!"

Bri angrily walked around her room, smacking her head with her hands. The other being in the room, an odd-looking creature with dark blue skin, black eyes, horns, wings, and claws, but other than those features, fairly humanoid. Human looking enough for Bri to get it its face and scream,

"I SWEAR JUST LEAVE ME ALONE!!!!!"

She started crying and sat on the floor. The creature went to sit by her, but she looked at it with such a ferociousness, it stopped, turned, and flew out of the window.

"Thank God." Even though she knew it would be back. Maybe tomorrow, maybe next week, maybe next month, it would be back. It had been following her for the past 3 years, not really doing anything but just existing, and occasionally embarrassing her. Her friends never saw it, and she prayed that it would stay that way, as whenever they were around it just disappeared. Sometimes its broke things though, like her fancy new perfume from Victorias Secret that she begged her mom to buy her, and the creature picked it up, and dropped it the very next day. Her room still smelled like vanilla and roses.

She didn't know where it was from, or if it could even talk for that matter. She didn't even know its gender. It looked like a he, but she refused to acknowledge it as anything other than "it". Bri could be very dehumanizing when he wanted to be. All she knew was for the past 3 years, she had no privacy, no freedom, and wanted it gone. Hell, one time the thing even tried to go into the bathroom with her when she was taking a shower, (It waited outside, and was subjected to a fit of screaming and objects being thrown at it afterwards.) She was scared when it first showed up, but after about a week it was just a nuisance. Sometimes it didn't even let her do things, stopping her from going to the mall on one day, or her friends on another. Like it was her second mother or something.

As she predicted, next week it was back. She noticed it walking behind her as she walked home from school. Rolling her eyes, she walked faster. It had been an amazing week, her friends hung out with her almost every day, and she almost felt what it would be like to be normal. Until now. She turned and it was picking up pace as well. So, she started running, sprinting actually, in an intense fit of rage. She could have done track, if only the creature hadn't hidden her shoes right as she was leaving for tryouts. She begged, cried, screamed, and asked politely, but only after it was too late for her to make it, it unveiled the shoes, hidden in her own vanity drawer. She could have sworn the thing was laughing at her.

Anyways, she was running, faster than she thought she had ever run, and only when she was at the intersection two blocks away from her house, she stopped, caught her breath, and intending on just dashing across it, kept running. She didn't see the truck that had just turned onto the intersection, or the light changing from red to green. The driver didn't see her either. She only noticed when it was right there, and screamed, but it was too late. She shut her eyes and felt something crash into her, and then everything went black.

She woke up in her room. She thought she was dead. But she looked at herself in the mirror, and besides a few bruises, she looked and felt fine. The monster had been sitting there, and it smiled when she got up. Putting the pieces together, she realized what had just happened. She went up to the monster.

"Um, I think I owe you an apology. You saved my life."
