A young guy called Jason resided in the quaint village of Oakridge, surrounded by majestic trees and gently undulating hills. Except for the fact that he carried a demon inside him, Jason was just like everyone else in town.

Since he was a little boy, Jason has been accompanied by the demon known as Malphas. The demon Malphas's influence became stronger and threatened to absorb Jason fully as he got older. At first, it murmured wicked ideas and desires.

Jason fought valiantly to contain Malphas, but the demon's might proved too much. Jason would spend each night engaged in a hard struggle inside himself, fending off the shadows that loomed above him.

Jason had an increasingly difficult time as time went on. Oakridge residents had an unsettling feeling, but they couldn't place their finger on what it was. In the meanwhile, Jason isolated himself from society out of fear for what would happen if Malphas took over.

Jason met Rose one day when he was hopelessly depressed. Even though Jason was engulfed in darkness, the good within him was seen by the compassionate and caring Rose. She was there for him whenever he needed someone to talk to, refusing to give up on him.

Thanks to Rose's encouragement, Jason mustered up the courage to face Malphas head-on. In the face of the devil, they stood together, their love and resolve shining brightly. They battled side by side for hours, not giving an inch until Malphas was vanquished.

Not only did Jason succeed in the end, but so did Rose. She had shown him that there was hope for atonement even in the darkest of times by her unflinching trust in him, and it had transformed his life forever.

Jason and Rose stood together, more powerful than before, as the first light of dawn peered through the night sky. After Jason had successfully removed Malphas from his thoughts, he realized that his liberation was due to Rose, his human guardian angel, the lady who had rescued him.
