Demon Hero: Rising Dark Initiative: The Demon Hero Saga, #2

By Erik Handy

There are many dimensions – different planes of existence. The two closest to ours are what we call Heaven and Hell. Know that Hell is populated by demons and their collective energies – energies we call demonic radiation.

This radiation doesn't harm humans like the radiation you know. Demonic radiation alters human DNA, changing a person's physiological and psychological make-ups into . . . something else.

There are seven physical portals to Hell scattered across Earth. One has opened in the bustling city of Blue Creek.

With the opening of the hellgate came an eruption of pent-up demonic radiation which affected those directly in its path. Twelve in all had their cells mutated. It was a miracle that more did not succumb to the effects of the radiation. Or maybe not . . . .

Those unharmed witnessed a spectacular sight as the first monster borne from this incident, Triaxis, destroyed whole sections of the city. Hundreds perished and millions around the globe would never be the same. The military couldn't stop the fifty-foot-tall creature's rampage.

Enter Tommy Rider.

Irradiated like the monster Triaxis, Rider displays noticeable differences. For one, he can transform at will into the humanoid warrior the world would soon dub Demon Hero. Not only does he retain a human form, but he also retains his humanity, one that's burdened with the strength to stop the monsters created by otherworldly energies.

However, the demonic radiation fueling Rider dwindles with every transformation and every punch he throws. His first battle with Triaxis ended in victory, but can he defeat two monsters from his past before he loses his powers?

There are many dimensions – different planes of existence. The two closest to ours are what we call Heaven and Hell. Know that Hell is populated by demons and their collective energies – energies we call demonic radiation.

This radiation doesn’t harm humans like the radiation you know. Demonic radiation alters human DNA, changing a person’s physiological and psychological make-ups into . . . something else.

There are seven physical hellgates to Hell scattered across Earth. One has opened in the bustling city of Green Ridge.

With the opening of the hellgate came an eruption of pent-up demonic radiation which affected those directly in its path. Twelve in all had their cells mutated. It was a miracle that more did not succumb to the effects of the radiation. Or maybe not . . . .

Thank you.

Tommy Rider got up and left without a word.

Chucky Larson looked over at Paris Lupo and shrugged.

We can’t get rid of him soon enough, he told her.

I can’t believe he accused me of doing that, she said.

Did you?

No, she lied.

Well, he began as he stood, I better get back to my office. I’ve got some work to catch up on.

His work consisted of looking at a website he shouldn’t have been viewing during work hours. No one could say that Chucky Larson wasn’t a productive library manager.

Once in his office, he fired up his computer. As he reached for a facial tissue, the hellgate next to the library opened. His sinuses felt like someone hammered a spike into them, which was usually a
