David was a young man in his early 20's, with a scrawny complexion, with nice blonde hair and blue eyes, with a normally shy personality.
He is not one that goes out normally, and is rather independent, if you were to go to his house normally, you may find him by himself playing the day away on his games if he isn't doing anything else.
David, while being shy, always tries to find the best in others, but will take action if one is persistent in a negative way, and he will on this night.

(David's POV)
I was at the moment trekking through Tate's Hell State Forest along probably the only  path in it...well, I should probably tell you why I am doing so.
So yesterday, I've gotten an E-Mail from one of my friends who loves traveling around Florida, which detailed a rather interesting event that happened a few nights ago when he was with a touist group guided by Olympia Gamete, whom he and the rest came across a mysterious entity in the same forest at the end of the only path the group could find, which asked where someone he called "The Creator" was, though after the tour guide said no, it did turn away, but suddenly turned back around and sprayed Olympia with...something, to which they fled the area, and only got part way through the forest again before Olympia tripped on an exposed tree root, forcing them to stop, and all of them realized that Olympia was actually changing, and she experienced great pain as her body was altered, mainly her head, into an anime girl, pretty much, but then somehow, orange armor then materialized on her, later she even called herself a "Warrior chick of Florida", From her complete physical description, I can't blame her.
Anyways...
As I was, I was trekking through perhaps the only path I could find in Tate's Hell State Forest, and I was hoping, for some reason, that this was the actual path that group went on.
In the same E-Mail I got from my friend, he said that he often heard mischievous laughter as they went along the path, the thing is that for me, only the sounds of nature were all that I could hear, I was pretty much going on an almost normal nighttime nature walk for several minutes.
Well, that would change rather quickly, as I then heard the distant howling of what sounded like a wolf, I...I don't remember there being any wild wolves in Florida, it sounded like only one, so I wasn't sure what to make of it, though I did get somewhat nervous at this point, but I pressed on.
Over the next several minutes, I occasionally heard the howling of the wolf, if it was one, continuing along the path, never sounding like it was getting much closer, though about half a an hour inside the forest, the howling stopped for about five minutes, before I then started hearing faint growling, going for about three minutes off and on before stopping completely.
Less then a minute after it stopped, the path led between two trees making a large door-like shape with their branches included, this had to be it.
Going through this "Tree doorway", I now found myself in a large clearing, exactly as my friend said in the E-Mail, only that he didn't say that the trees and brush between them made an an almost 10 foot tall wall surrounding the clearing, with the "Tree doorway" and the "wall" looking like it was made by...someone, who would do it here though?
Yes, there was also the large tree stump in the middle of the clearing, surrounded by all the grass in the area.
For fun, I actually went up to the stump and tried counting the growth rings, I was able to count just over 300, meaning that the tree that used to be here was just over 300 years old when it was cut down, just sayin.
I actually stayed in the clearing looking up at the night sky for about ten minutes, I pretty much forgot about whatever was howling then growling earlier in my calmed state.
After that, though, I then felt uneasy, and stopped stargazing and looked around after  I got up again, deciding to call it a night, but when I then started hearing the growling from before, much closer sounding then before, at this point I got kind of freaked out at this, and headed for the "Tree doorway" again, but then I stopped about 25 feet from it, I saw something on the other side, blocking the way out, I couldn't make out what it was at first as it was in the "shadow" of one of the trees, the only thing I could see were two glowing white eyes, was this the thing that was howling and growling earlier? This thing was growling at me, as if the clearing was its territory and I had just trespassed onto it unknowingly, and I stepped back a couple times.
Still growling at me, the creature then stepped out of the "shadow" and into the clearing, the moon was just bright enough to allow me to see it clearly, and I couldn't believe what I was seeing.
This creature looked almost exactly like a Ninetales from the Pokemon games, right in front of me, but this was not a normal Ninetales, it looked like it was entirely burnt with dark green fur, the burn marks being like burnt wood, as if it had accidentally burnt itself with one of its own moves, it also seemed to be missing its eyes as well, only having black voids and glowing white spots were the eyes would be, this...really freaked me out, a real life Pokemon was right in front of me, angry at me, knowing that this thing could burn me alive, because Ninetales is a Fire-Type.
<Don't panic man, keep your cool.> I thought, I had to escape from this thing at all costs, but it was blocking the way out, I just kept slowly backing up, as the Ninetales was stepping towards me.
Then, it's angry expression shifted into a wicked smile as it was still looking at me, now I was confused, was this Ninetales angry or crazy?, probably the latter.
"I finally have another one." I faintly heard a man say.
"Who was that?" I said, looking around for a second.
"Me you fool." I heard the man say in the direction of the Ninetales.
"You?" I said to the Ninetales.
"Yes it's me." It responded.
Wait, was this Ninetales actually talking to me, and vocally?, I only thought Chatots could do that.
"So why do you look like you want to attack me?" I asked it.
" I was waiting for someone to come here, and someone did." It responded.
"What's your name though?" I then said, trying not to look nervous.
"Phantom, why do you ask?" It responded.
"No reason." I responded.
"Back to what I wanted to do..." Phantom said, licking its chops.
Now I was truly freaked out, this thing was acting like a pycho, NOW I really had to get out of here!
I quickly acted, suddenly bolting for the exit going around Phantom, but it was quicker then me, quickly getting to me and headbutting me hard to the ground away from it and blocking the exit again, dang it! 
"Where do you think you're going?" Phantom said.
"Can't a man just go home?" I said, getting back up.
Phantom turned around, backed up a little, then spewed blue flames from its mouth onto the ground between the trees making the "doorway", which stayed there, now there really was no way out!
Phantom then turned to me still looking crazy, with its eye twitching, then said "You won't be going home once I'm done with you."
S***, the only thing I can do now to leave is to wait for the flames to die out while making sure Phantom doesn't get me, which at this point seemed impossible.
Still, Phantom was now drooling, he wanted to get me so badly at this point, I just went with my gut instinct and just started running, and only seconds after I got head butted again in the back and knocked down again, though this time when I tried getting back up again, Phantom knocked me to the side then put its paws on my arms and legs, I couldn't get back up again, Phantom was so strong.
"Please don't kill me!" I pleaded, Phantom was just drooling on my face now.
Phantom then suddenly chomped down hard on my left hand, Feeling like several sharp knives that just came out of a furnace stabbing me at the same time, So painful that I couldn't even scream out, at least Phantom stopped biting down only a few seconds after it started, and got off me, and I quickly sat up and got on my knees as I grabbed my left arm and inspected it, the wound went all the way through my flesh, allowing me to see through my flipping hand through the holes, but it wasn't bleeding, I briefly glanced over at Phantom, to see him just sitting about 12 feet in front of me with that crazed expression and flexing its tails.
"Ugh, I'm crippled in my left hand, I got an insane Ninetales staring me down, I got my only exit blocked by fire, how could this get any worse?" I said.
Right then, I felt two things on my back pushing against my shirt, but I was focusing on the still intense pain in my hand, putting both of them on the ground and bending over still on my knees, when whatever was pushing against my shirt on my back suddenly tore through it and I yelled out in pain, breathing a few times, I looked back, and my eyes widened, there were two large growths on my back that vaguely looked like weird wings, they were fairly heavy as well, as I could feel the weight of them on my back, touching one of them, I still felt as if these were mine, and they were.
My left hand then felt funny, looking back at that hand, it felt as if it was hardening very slightly, starting on the front of it, the wounds were healed as well, I could only watch as they were swelling and glass-like feathers were forming were the skin was, gray pads where the palms were and red everywhere else, my fingers also sunk back into my hands and three claws replaced them, and my arm was partially enveloped by these "Hands", and I felt pressure on them as I also saw them thinning somewhat and turn white.
Wait...this claw looks familiar...
I looked at my other hand and arm and saw that it was already changed and pretty much the same as my left, then I realized, these claws and the coloring are of another Pokemon, Latias!, Is Phantom's Bite turning me into a Latias?
I checked my "wings" again, and saw the same red "feathers" spreading over them, I was feeling very slightly colder for some reason, the "feathers" had to be spreading across my body, and my legs felt like they were on fire, like my bones were melting, I had to lay down with my legs straight, as they were retreating into my torso, my torso was also swelling, and when the "feathers" reached my "equipment", It burned so much, I couldn't even scream it was so painful, and I knew that I was becoming a girl, as Latias is a Female anyways.
I was still looking at my legs and feet, unable to look away, until they were at the point where only the feet were fully changed and barely existing before that stopped.
My torso, mostly my hips, were still swelling, starting to tear through my pants and my shirt, at this point everything below my neck was covered in these red and white and red "down feathers".
I heard a popping sound at my tailbone and looked over to it to see a short, spikey tail poking out right above my rear, I couldn't resist trying to wag it a little.
Now at this point I was full on Latias below the neck, so yea, only my head and neck were left, I tore off the remaining tattered clothes that were still on me with my claws.
<Just let it end please!> I thought to myself, looking down at the blue triangle on my chest.
I almost blacked out when several pops emitted from my neck, making me lose focus, as my neck was now lengthening.
When the addition of vertebrae in my neck stopped, it of course was sore as all hell, I had to rest my head on the ground for a little over a minute, because I was also still grounded and not floating like Latias, It was hard for me to move along the ground, because I could only use my arms and claws and the fact that my feet were virtually useless.
When I could move my neck properly again, I lifted myself somewhat with my claws and lifted my head off the ground, just one more thing and it'll be over.
Right when I was about to look at Phantom again, a crack echoed in my head, I kept my eyes and mouth shut, as I felt the slightly cold down feathers spreading from my neck onto my head, and I could feel all the hair on my head just fall off as they reached my scalp, as well as my ears reforming and migrating upwards to the top sides of my head, last thing...
Now my skull finally started shifting in shape, It was hard to keep myself conscious, as my eyes grew with my eye sockets and my nose went back into my head, merging with my jaw as it stretched forwards, giving me my muzzle, finally...
"Ugh..." I moaned after opening my eyes again, hearing my feminine voice, I knew I had to deal with this, probably for the rest of my life.
"You..." I said as I looked right at Phantom, exactly the same position and expression as before.
Phantom then finally moved, still psychotic looking, turning around and slowly walking away, back towards the entryway into this clearing, with the blue flames still there, that didn't even spread, not even an inch.
I could faintly hear Phantom whispering to himself as I was still trying to get off the ground.
"Another one down, I really need a girl on my list...", I knew I need to destroy this monster, make sure it wouldn't hurt anyone else.
"Why do I love this?", Is Phantom actually insane or just...uh...mentally unstable?
"Who should I get next though?", This was my limit, I was determained to kill this thing at all costs, Me, a Latias, versus pretty much an unstable demon Ninetales. That's when I finally felt myself rising off the ground, and tried to wipe some of the dirt off me, I had to do a sneak attack, so I quickly tried flying around, which was easier then I though it would be, then approached Phantom, only a few feet from the entryway, then suddenly slashed it with both claws in the back of the head, it then yelped in pain and stopped with its tails and head down, shaking.
"...What?" It said in a betrayed kind of way, then slowly turned its bleeding head to look at me, it's white pupils were now red, Just looking at the eyes made me see that Phantom was purely angry at this point, not crazy this time, and not pretending like before.
"You...you...fought back against me?" It said, now turning its whole body towards me, did I actually make a bad choice by attacking Phantom?, even though I wouldn't want to hurt anyone, this monster was just...just pure evil.
"Yes I did, you mad?" I angerly taunted it.
"Let me ask another question then." It said.
"Then what?" I responded.
"Do you want to have a bad time?" Phantom's eyes then went completely empty, that freaked me out, but I tried to act bravely and responded "I'll take it."
Right after I said that, Phantom suddenly jumped at me and tackled me out of the air and we rolled on the ground, I slashed at Phantom's face and got a hit off it.
Phantom tried to keep me on the ground with its powerful paws, but I still resisted, and slipped out its grasp and dodged it when it lunged at me again, and it turned around right as it touched the ground.
Phantom wasn't going down without a fight, though these physical attacks are the risky ones, i had to try to do a special attack, but how?
Phantom then spewed out a large hunk of blue flame from its mouth right at me, quickly reacting, I blocked my face with my claws, right when the hunk collided with them, a small explosion forced me backwards somewhat and the hunk of blue flame burst and scattered around the area, didn't hurt that much, as I'm a Dragon type.
Right when I un-blocked my face, Phantom lunged at me again, startled, I actually punched it in the face unintentionally, knocking it away.
"You're stronger then in thought you would you be." Phantom said, ready to pounce again.
"Guess so." I replied.
Wasting no more time after it spoke, a dark pulse of energy was emitted from its body, This time I wasn't fast enough to dodge it and was hit, a surge of pain went through me, making me lose control for a second and almost dropped  to the ground before I quickly regained control and kept floating, Dark Pulse, I can totally assume that was.
Something then snapped in my head and I rapidly rushed towards Phantom, briefly seeing its expression change to a surprised one right before I slashed it and turned around right when I was behind it, there was no way that it could've dodged it, so forceful that was that Phantom was blown backwards under me and it was on its back, it actually flailed for a second to get back on its feet, then it actually looked at me with a scared expression, and it's then red eyes turned a liliac color, clearly it underestimated me, even I underestimated my own power, I also saw a large, deep mark on its chest from that powerful slash.
Phantom retaliated and roared loudly at me, sending me flying backwards and into a tree on the other side of the clearing, damn, that move was definitely more powerful then I thought it would be.
After I regained my balance in the air, I looked back at Phantom, and it had its mouth open about to spew what looked like a shadowy blob at me, probably Shadow Ball, can't let this thing hit me, not another time.
Phantom right then spewed it at me, not one in fact, but three, none of them actually went directly at me, but Phantom then started rushing towards me again, must retaliate, Focusing my willpower, I rushed towards it as well, and we bashed heads and were both knocked back, though I quickly recovered, Phantom seemed dazed, using this time I took a deep breath, pulled my arm back, and then punched Phantom with all my might as I rushed at it again, making it almost rag doll as it flipped onto its back, and Phantom regained consciousness, as it remained dizzy, probably from the punch this time.
"Rgh..." It moaned as it tried to lift itself up and opened its eyes.
"So who's the stupid one now?, I know what I am." I said to phantom.
Phantom actually just made a mischievous grin in response.
"But are you paying attention to your surroundings?" He responded.
I quickly looked around me and just breifly saw one shadow ball coming right in my direction when it then hit me, I almost lost control over my body again but I resisted, and kept myself up, now I felt like I was drained of energy.
"Getting tired?" Phantom then said as it got back up, "I will still make your death quick, even if I am severely hurt, and then you'll lay motionless on the ground, and no one will ever think it's you."
I was now enraged, and angerly looking at Phantom I felt a powerful energy building up inside of me, I saw the other two Shadow Balls bouncing off the walls made of trees and high, dence bushes, when the energy was suddenly released from me in a magenta pulse, and when it reached the Shadow Balls, which were close to the walls, they were then redirected and sent directly towards Phantom, and when both hit him, right when it lowered its head in pain, he stopped and started shaking.
I backed up somewhat, just in case it would attack me again, now surprised that I did something only doable using Telekinesis, a move that Latias can't learn.
Phantom simply did...nothing, but I could hear a cracking sound emiting from it, like glass slowly cracking.
Looking closer at Phantom I realized why that was, it was still as a statue, and a crack was spreading from its head downwards, which was completely black, which went on for a good 30 seconds or so before it stopped, then Phantom shook for a second before a massive sound of glass shattering emitted from it and it exploded into a dark mist, then revealing Phantom in the same form, but now looking like a completely black mass emiting the dark mist from itself.
"The...pain..." It moaned.
For some reason I actually felt guilty for makeing Phantom suffer like this, that it's not itself.
"You...you won't get away with this!" He threatened, "I've already made you unreconizable to perhaps everyone, so unless you can convince them that it is you, you won't be living normaly from now on..."
Yea...That is actually right!, but... How will I convince them?
"I will come back, and you won't like it..." He threatened one last time, then turned towards the entryway and walked, as if it was crippled, towards it, I didn't stop it this time, I just let it go, as it walked over the fire blocking it, it was snuffed out by Phantom stepping on them.
As he was out of my sight, I began wondering...what should I do now?, I can't go back to civilization because I may either be killed or captured If I am found, only if someone I know comes here...then I can hopefully convince them, that this Latias...is me.
Requested by :iconthedragonoftime:
The mysterious creature from "Backfired...in a good way" returns in this story, claiming another victim, but the victim also fights back leading to a short but harsh fight between the two, and the creature finally feels pain after its defeat...but not in the most pleasant way.

Previous: Return to the Raposa Village
Next: A Child's Dream

Character count: 20532

So...I might as well give you more insight on Phantom.
If you have read "The Gray Goddess", you may remember Influka Mentioning a man that she visited in his dreams, and she refused his request to see the memories of past evils so he could destroy an innocent indian village, and cursed him instead, causing him to be lonely and later was killed by the village he wanted to destroy, and his home was also destroyed.
Well...This man has loathed to get his revenge on Influka in his afterlife, and escaped back to Earth, Searching for Influka, and taking his rage and insanity out on other humans,Ben in "Backfired...in a Good Way" and David in this story, Being a supernatural demon capable of taking the souls of other creatures after killing them to become solid and become a powerful creature that is not from Earth, First being a Ninetales, until he was defeated by David in this story, losing his physicality and the souls he gathered, soon after he will no longer be a Ninetales, and will have to gather more souls to gain another form, but what will that be?
You will find out later.

Also, if the fight scene included seemed a bit too short to you...it's because I ran out of ideas, sorry.
