I can remember how my palms were slick with sweat as I typed into google for methods to summon a demon. Plenty of the articles were merely talking about the history of summoning demons, but I did find some interesting articles - specifically, I found one with all the demons and their uses.

From answers to court cases, and even drug addiction. There were so many, it was honestly a little overwhelming. If the demons were this helpful, why did they have such a bad name? Why weren't they used for everything? There was even one for women's rights. I had to resist the urge to look up all of them.

I was like a child at a candy store, admiring all the shiny things, it was a little hard to even focus on my mission. But fortunately at the very bottom was a section for writing. Only one demon was listed - Phenex.

I'm more than familiar with it now, but the name had threw me through a loop when I first came across it. Phenex? Did they mean Phoenix? But, wasn't Phoenix good? To be fair, all I knew about the creature was whatever info was in the Harry Potter series, but it still struck me as odd...

It only took opening another page and typing the name out to confirm that sure enough, there he was. According to the Wiki page, Phoenix, or rather Phenex, taught all wonderful sciences, but more importantly, was an excellent poet.

Not really my writing style, but I can make it work - better than nothing.

Was I really going to do this? Warnings from my mom echoed through my head, and my nerves seemed to spike.

She had to be over exaggerating. There isn't any guarantee that demons are real, either.

No, they definitely weren't real.
