🩸 Episode 9 – The Curse Beneath the Skin

---

🧛 Scene 1 – The Banshee Hunt

Newton, Leo Maseko, and Jason travel to the Wailing Hills, a cursed region where the cries of the dead echo through the wind. They seek a Banshee, a spectral being who can detect soul fractures and scream through dimensions.

They find her — Mairead, a pale figure with silver hair and hollow eyes, singing to a field of bones.

>Mairead – "You seek screams. I offer silence. But silence has a price."

She agrees to help — but demands a memory from each of them.

>Jason – "Take my first nightmare."

>Leo – "Take my father's last breath."

>Newton – "Take my fear of becoming my drawings."

🧟 Scene 2 – Haruto's Tokoloshe Awakens

In the ruins of the Eastern Ridge, Haruto begins to twitch. His eyes turn black. His Tokoloshe side, long dormant, begins to surface — mischievous, violent, and hungry.

>Haruto – "I'm not me. I'm something else."

He attacks a demon scout, laughing as he rips its claws off. Logan tries to calm him.

>Logan – "You're Haruto. Not the shadow."

>Haruto – "Then why does the shadow feel better?"

---

🔥 Scene 3 – Daniel Maiden vs Beelzebub

In a hidden chamber beneath the Temple of Ash, Daniel Maiden searches for one of the Princes of Hell — Beelzebub, the Lord of Flies. He finds him — a grotesque, winged demon with a crown of twitching insects.

>Beelzebub – "You seek power. I offer plague."

They clash — Daniel shifting into Chimera form, Beelzebub unleashing swarms of venomous flies. The chamber collapses around them.

>Daniel – "I don't want your power. I want your secrets."

---

🐾 Scene 4 – The Triplets' Truth

Kol, investigating the origins of Cerberus, uncovers an ancient scroll. The triplets — Alastor, Aiden, and Andrew — were born human. Their mother was a skinwalker, cursed to pass her transformation to her children.

To prevent the curse, their father killed them — but resurrected them using forbidden magic. They were reborn as a three-headed dog, cursed to guard the gates of Hell.

>Kol – "They weren't monsters. They were martyrs."

The triplets weep silently.

🦅 Scene 5 – The Sky Scouts

Above the city, Grimm (in raven form), Harry (in dove form), and Azrael (in vulture form) soar through the clouds, scouting for demonic activity. They spot a rift opening near the coast — a portal bleeding shadows.

>Azrael – "The sky is cracking. The Gate is breathing."

>Grimm – "Then we dive."

---

🧠 Scene 6 – Aria's Search

Aria, desperate to find Sherlock, searches the ruins of the cult chamber. She finds a blood trail, a broken watch, and a whisper in the wind.

>Aria – "You're close. I can feel you."

Her child glows faintly, guiding her toward the forest.

---

🧛 Scene 7 – Sebastian's Departure

Sebastian, shattered by Damon's death, walks into the mist. He drops his communicator, his blade, and his badge.

>Sebastian – "I'm done. Let the world burn without me."

He vanishes. No one sees where he goes.

---

🧬 Scene 8 – Micah & Adam's Training Intensifies

Back at the bunker, Micah and Adam begin combining their powers — electricity and light — to form pulse beams capable of disrupting demonic resonance.

>Micah – "We're not just sparks. We're storms."

---

🔥 Final Scene – Beelzebub's Warning

As Daniel pins Beelzebub, the demon whispers:

>Beelzebub – "The Seventh Gate is not the last. It's the first. You opened the beginning."

Daniel freezes. The chamber trembles.
