So it's a deal then

.+Chapter 5+.

My eyes dart to Alastor as light jazz plays in the background. The music stops when his eyes meet mine. I held a fake smile. He was currently eating some food. Well, a deer carcass. I could smell it from here and it was a foul smell. "Hey Alastor"

"Do you mind, dear? I'm in the middle of breakfast." He continued to eat.

"Pentious's eggs are all over the place, and I need you to get rid of them, please."

"Oh, well, in that case, I'd be delighted to!" He summons his microphone staff thingy.

"Humanely!" I say as he walks towards me

"Hmm. Well, that's a lot less hot," his eyes glow red as an x appears on his forehead. What the hell is that? "But I suppose I can take care of that on my outing today."

"O-okay, thanks" Before he leaves the room, he grabs my chin and lifts it to face him. My face turns an awkward red as I try not to make eye contact.

"My dear, when I get back, I want you to meet me in my room. I want to talk to you." He lets go of my flustered self. "Oh, and happy one week sober," He said and left, leaving me a complete mess. Oh, shit...

-Alastors POV-

"Oh, boy! What's the plan, boss? I like your suit! What are the antlers for? Can I touch your staff thing? Are those your ears or is it your hair? I can't tell!" I am going to kill each of these eggs if they don't stop with these questions. My eye twitched as I kept my smile on my face. Suddenly, Zestial appeared in front of me. Fun.

"Hark, Alastor. How fare thee this day?" Tensing up a little as I turned to the eggs.

"Who's that, boss? Want me to rough him up for you?" Oh, so idiotic.

"Follow in silence if you value your shell!" I tap the egg on its head before spinning to Zestial, "Greetings, Zestial!" I plant my microphone into the ground with my smile.

"Oh, holy shit!" Some insignificant guy spoke from behind us.

"Ah, the weather doth become this fine day."

"Indeed, looks like we might have some acid rain this afternoon!" I love watching all these pathetic souls fleeing when they see us.

"if our luck doth hold! I do revel in the screams. How art thou?" We began to walk as he continued to talk. "It has been an age since thou hath graced us thy presence. Some hath spun wild tales of you falling to... holy arms."

Letting out a quick laugh, I spoke. "Oh, I just took a well-earned sabbatical, nothing serious." I quickly adjust my bowtie while speaking, "Though it's fun to keep everyone on their toes!" A laughing sound played on my microphone as I laughed.

"There too hath been rumor of thy involvement with the princesses and their recent flight of fancy. Other rumors tell an interest in the youngest. Tell me, how does thou fall in such folly?" There are already rumors about me and y/n hah. She is just a pawn in all this.

"That is for me to know. But please, do guess, I'd love to know the theories!" I continued to walk with a smile on my face.

"T'would be grander folly by far to assume the workings of your mind, Alastor. Thou hath been naught but an enigma since thy manifested in this realm!"

"Coming from someone as ancient as you, I take that as quite the compliment!" I smiled and kept walking.

-Y/n POV-

We all agreed to let Angel pick a place and take us there, and do a trust-building exercise, and he brought us to a fucking sex dungeon.

"Angel! What the actual fuck?!"

"No activity requires more trust than BDSM, baby. No bond is stronger than those formed through bondage! That's their motto!" He points to the poster on the wall with the motto. I quickly duck into the shadows. This is very uncomfortable...

"Angel, love the enthusiasm. But, umm, uh, hmmm," Charlie spoke uncomfortably.

"What makes you think anyone would be into this?"

"You know, I, I don't hate this," Husk said while purring. He was getting a message as Niffty ruined it and ran over.

"I'm ready to punish some bad boys!"

"...Never mind, I-I'm out!" Husk said. Everyone was uncomfortable. I suddenly watched as 3 demons came up to Charlie and started touching her. She is the person who doesn't know when to say no, so I stepped in.

"Hey shit face, get your dirty ass hands off my sister" I made a fireball appear in my hand and darken my eyes. They back away as Vaggie drags Charlie away.

"Ugh! I can't fucking believe I let you drag us here, Angel. This is disgusting."

"It's no big deal, Vaggie. You know, maybe I can just help, uh-"

"No. I told you, you could trust me, and I'm not going to let you down." Trouble in paradise I see "I just need to teach them, the way I was taught..." Vaggie then smiles darkly as I get scared.

Vaggie leads us to a town where everything is destroyed... demons fighting everything.

"THIS IS HOW YOU LEARNED TO TRUST PEOPLE?!" Charlie screamed as I backed away quickly. nope no thanks. I wish I stayed at the hotel.

Vaggie marches drill sergeant style. "There is nothing stronger than the trust between comrades in arms. Buckle up, buttercups, because today you boys become men!" She walks over to Pentious and picks him up like nothing. "You,"

"Wait, wait! I can't fight without my minions."

"Are gonna survive together!" She yelled and then threw him off the roof. Oh shit, this is serious. She then turned to Angel. "And you"

"D-don't you even think about it-" she lifts Angel and throws him off the roof as well and she turns to me as I quickly disappear into the floor so she can't grab me. I reappear after she turns to Niffty.

"Are gonna make this hotel work!" Niffty, of course, is super happy with the pain and begs her to throw her off the roof.

"My turn, my turn!" She picks up Niffty and I notice Husk go inside the building, afraid I bounce into the shadows and appear behind him, scaring the fuck out of him.

"Hi Husker" He rolled his eyes.

"You're starting to act just like him.." he mumbled, who? I tilted my head with a questioning look. "Alastor... with all your freaky teleport shit and fire, you are turning into him.

"I'll never be like that demon," I said, and he chuckled

"Keep telling yourself that" I dropped my expression but Husk changed the subject. "So what's going on with you and Angel..." I turn away from him when he brings that up. I stare around the staircase, trying to look for a way out of this conversation.

"Nothing, it's fine," I muttered

"Y/n I'm a bartender. I know when someone is lying... also you just suck a lying. You two are best friends! What's going on kid..." I rolled my eyes at his comment.

"We got into a fight and said some shit..." Only, what I didn't know was when I was ranting to Husker Angel was at the bottom of the stairs case and heard everything even the part when I mentioned my minor episode.

After I finished ranting to Husk, Angel came up the stairs with Sir Pentious.

"Made it" he opened the door and Charlie was walking towards us.

"Let's go home, guys." Fucking finally!

"Ugh! I just walked up all those stairs!" I laughed a little as he looked at me with a tiny smile. He pulled Sir Pentious back down as we walked home.
