"Now that I have introduced myself and you know I'm not a threat...this time...ha! I'm kidding! Lighten up!" Faye said laughing and throwing his arms behind his head. "I think you should get rid of this gunk around me before I change a part of your life you really don't want changed." Faye said with a sadistic look in his eyes. I watched as Death glared at him and walked behind him and smacked the back of his head hard enough to make my body lurch forward and Fate's hand flew to the back of his head.

"Ow! Jeez take a joke, Death! God! I think you fractured my skull!" Fate said and I saw Varian's eyes widen as he stared at Fate in horror and he became super pale. "Someone please tell Varian that my skull isn't actually fractured! I-I think he's gonna pass out!" I said as o stared at him and Fate's eyes widened. "Woah woah Varian calm down! I-I meant my skull l-like my god skull. Not (Y/n)'s!" Fate said and Varian only calmed down a little bit. "Okay I'm very confused. Someone please tell me what's happening here." Eugene said and Fate looked up at him.

"God she's short." Fate said as he looked up at everyone. "Okay! Miss Adira would you do the honors of flipping that map of yours inside out?" Fate motioned towards the map in her hands. I walked over to Death and pulled on his sleeve. "What's up kid?" He asked and I looked back at Fate in my body. "Since it's my body and my gut, can't he just use me to lead them to the others?" I asked and Death shook his head no. "What you call your gut is actually your intuition and your manifestation working together. Both are so strong that you kind of just know things and you live your life based on what you feel is right. Like when you were a kid and your mother made you choose between me and literally any other toy she had given you. You chose to play with me because your intuition told you to trust me and to become close to me. Your mother put a lot of work into making you like this." Death said smiling softly as he stared at the group in front of us.

"May I ask what you mean by that?" I asked softly and Death shrugged his shoulders. "She did a lot of work with many, many,...many...different gods and goddesses. I mean like the Egyptian gods. She made deals with gods she didn't get along with. She even made a deal with Lucifer's top demons and Zeus. Zeus! She did a lot to make you who you are. She did favors for them, and they granted her protection and gifts that were given to you. The biggest favor was the one she made with your father. Have a kid with him and their child will become the most powerful witch from now until the end of time. Strange thing is that I never thought Beelzebub would actually fall in love. It took us all by surprise. Satan was the only one to win that bet." Death said with a small laugh and we started following the group into the forest with Adira leading the way.

"Wait I thought Beelzebub, Satan, and Lucifer were all the same person." I said and Death shook his head. "Nope. All different people. Here let me break down the ranking of Hell for you. You have the overall ruler which is Lucifer, aka the one who stood up against G-Man in the first place. Satan was actually an Angel as well. Not an archangel like Lucifer, but still an Angel none the less. You know what happened to Lucifer, thrown down to hell blah blah blah. Satan actually went down to visit Lucifer quite often. G-Man found out and told Satan he could stop seeing Lucifer or never be allowed back in heaven. Obviously Satan chose Lucifer. Satan is second in command. He's also surprisingly good with poisons. Beelzebub was under Satan. Make sense now?" He asked and I nodded. "So since Beelzebub was technically my father does that mean I have to take his place?" I asked and Death laughed. "You're too good to take over for him." He said and I nodded as I watched as the others started to fight off the drexis. I watched as one of the Drexis was starting to approach Varian's back.

I was about to interfere when Death beat me to it. He pulled his black scythe from out of thin air. He swung the scythe so it went underneath the creature and sliced clean through it. There were no signs of any cuts or injuries as the creature stopped moving completely and slumped to the ground. "D-did you just?" I asked and he nodded. "Remind me never to get on your bad side Deathy." I heard Fate say as he cut off a few of the drexis' wings with what looked like a white whip. "You're always on my bad side." Death said swinging his scythe around and leaning against it.
