Demon's inner thoughts...
I use to be so hopeful that I could change the world with kindness and understanding...
Now I'm nothing more than a reflection on how cruel Remnant can be.
And I never been happier! :p
Present time...
"Let's face it, my social skills isn't the greatest." Demon groan, his face down hiding into his arms and knees. He currently sat down on the ground against the wall next to the entrance. For a few minutes now he has fell in a semi depressed state meanwhile for the whole time his siblings been trying to reassure him she'll come. "Even if Unny decides to waste her time by meeting me here, I'll eventually scare her way. Like I always do when I make an attempt to be so call normal."
"Michael, when you met Unny did you try to be normal or did you act like yourself?" Regret ask.
"I act like myself." He answer truthfully in his muffled groans.
"Then shut up and wait patiently!" Angst took over for Regret, she feels for her brother but his uncharacteristic depressed mood is getting on her nerves and she wasn't afraid to sound harsh. "By some miracle this person likes you for who you are, not whether you can act a certain way right? So that means all you have to do is just do the same thing like last time." She catches Demon's attention, his head rose from up his arms and knees. "Be yourself. Just don't go too overbroad. Because you're kinda a jackass and that's me being nice"
"I for one think you can't ever go overboard! You ARE awesome, the exact opposite of a jackbutt!." Regret said.
"Really!? You always make time to suck up huh?" Angst said.
A week earlier...
Back at the location where Demon is suppose to go for his mandatory therapy. Minutes ago he had just irritated the woman at the front desk and is now at door to his meeting.
"I still don't want to do this." His hands hovered over the doorknob, just on the other aide of the door is where the group therapy is taking place, he can hear audible talking belonging to a man in the other room.
"Duly noted I'll make sure to categorize it under things I don't give a freaking crap about!" Angst said harshly. "Get IN!" She commanded.
With a heavy and defeated sigh Demon turned the knob, and the talking cease on the other side. He pushed the door open and saw many sitting on chairs in a circle but to his horror, almost everyone in this room was a Faunus! Their curious eyes fixated on the new and late arrival here. Demon took a step back. "I think I'm at the wrong place, sorry." He apologize, trying to sound friendly with a dash of sheepish but truthfully on the inside he began to pent up at the thought he would have to attend these meetings with-with these Faunus!
"Don't be silly you're Mr. Halo right?" An older gentlemen, a human asked. His attire was casual, a plain green sweater and brown pants. Being the only none teenager here Demon logically assume him to be Dr. Watch.
Demon looked down at his weapons, he feel the pleading eyes of Regret and Angst's glare. Remembering why he was here in the first place, for a better life. He clear his throat and answer. "Yes I'm Halo." He doesn't like the idea of him being around these Faunus but he put his personal feelings for them to the side. "Only 45 minutes." He internally reminded himself how long the session would last for today. "I can get through this."
"Ah!" Dr. Watch exclaim his mood as bright as the day. The jolly man stood up from his seat and extended his hand for a shake in which Demon accepted with a lesser enthusiasm then the man. "It's good you decided to show up, we was worried you wouldn't make it today!"
"He doesn't speak for all of us!" The panda ear girl says covered in sweat, her shirt damp with it too. "Now there's one more person in this room breathing and creating body heat." Her voice rapidly grow panicky and hyperventilation. "I don't like it here! I hate this why am I here!? Can I go outside!?"
"Of- Of course Grey come back once you calm down!" Dr. Watch said, you can tell he was trying to stay calm but the girl name Grey hyperventilation state caused a somewhat mini panic to most of the people in the room who cared what would happen. Oddly a certain jackal ears girl smile, it looks like the sight of the panicking panda Faunus was amusing her. The Jackal ear girl watch as she ate a bag of marshmallow like popcorn.
"Thank you!" The panda Faunus named Grey said as polity as she could through her freaking out. Dashing off from her chair she made her over to the window.
"Whoa what are you doing!?" One dog ear Faunas asked, he wore heavy clothes and has visible scars all over his arms and face. "We're three story high!"
"I'MA SURVIVER!" Grey simple shouted before diving head first out the window screaming for dear life. Seconds later a loud thud can be heard and her screams stop, dead silent took over the room at the possibility someone just died. A few people rush over to the window she jump out from as a voice outside shouted. "I'm ok!" Most of the room sigh in relief hearing she was still very much alive.
"Stupid girl." Said by one of the human girl patients in the room.
"Welp!" Dr. Watch clasp his palm together, grabbing everyone attention back to him. "Let's just go ahead and start the group already!" He looks over to Demon with a smile. "Why don't you take a sit on Grey's chair, since I have a feeling she won't be back for awhile."
Shrugging, Demon made his way over to the free sit. He sat down in between a nervous looking bat ear Faunus whom wore farmer like attire with his boots and dirt stain shirt and to his left a human girl, she wore a full on magician outfit that that was mostly purple with a little bit of black skim on it.
The magician girl smile, Demon response, he stuck his tongue at her like a little kid. He wasn't in the happiest of mood to act friendly. He was caught off guard when he heard giggles coming from the magician instead of rolling her eyes or looking hurt or anything to indicate she was annoyed or at the very least got the hint! Not knowing how to react this unexpected behavior he simply just sat down and forgot about it. Glancing to the bat Faunus he sees him staring down at his thigh's area. Now the nervous Faunus was only looking at Demon's weapons but Demon instantly accused him of something else. "Why you staring at my crotch bro?" He says loudly, everyone look towards them. "Is their something you like? Because I'm not some object you can fantasizes about you prevert."
Everyone but Dr. Watch and Demon snicker, thinking it was a joke. The bat Faunus being understandable defensive of such a wild claim quickly waved his arms everywhere as he say "Nononono!" Desperately trying to get everyone to listen to him. "I was only looking at your weapons, I was just curious as to why you have yours here!?" He inquired. It's true, Demon seemingly is the only one with any weapons at least as far as he could tell. But he was still insisted the bat Faunus was starring at his crotch.
Demon crossed his arms. "Suuure I bet that's what you were totally only looking at... Prev." He said overly sarcastic.
"WHAT?" Was all the nervous Faunas could say in the midst of the snickering mess around him. The accused Faunus was flabbergasted as to how adamant Demon believed he looked at his 'area'.
"But fine I'll humor you by answering your dumb question." Demon sigh, his expression soften slightly but held a disgusted look at the bat Faunus. "I have my weapons because I can."
"Kinda vague don't you think?" The bat Faunus said.
"Your face is vague." Demon retort. The real reason behind his flimsy answer is because Demon didn't feel like explaining to everyone his weapons are actually his siblings stuck inside his decease foster's parents weapons so leaving them behind where he can't keep a eye on them isn't optional, their were stolen once before he wasn't going tonlet that happen again. With that said it was easier to not tell them anything and he can tell by his sister and brother's silences they agreed. Its best not to complicate things. Unless he's bored of course.
"So Demon since you currently have the floor why don't you introduced yourself then you can pass it to the next person and so on." Dr. Watch suggested as he made hand gestures to quiet everyone down and pay attention to Demon. Caught off guard Demon's heart nearly stop. All these eyes staring at his own almost like their spearing deep into his soul.
Picking himself together before anyone notice he acted nonchalant about it and shrug. "What eve's." He stood up and cleared his throat and made double sure when he did talk his voice wasn't going to crack. "So how am I suppose to start this?" He said causally, on the inside his heart pound his chest.
"Well why don't you start by telling everyone you name, Demon."
"You just said my name."
"Fair point." Dr. Watch before a little bulb expression appeared. "...Then how about you fill us in on you likes and dislikes." Dr. Watch said brightly.
Demon sigh. "Sure why not." I guess I'll start with my likes he thought however he didn't really know where to begin, he's quite interested in lots on things. "I.. Uh like making bombs." Hearing that everyone Immediately push themselves away on their chairs from Demon as he continue listing his likes. "Killing Grimms, following my ex, harassing the White Fangs, extreme skydiving, stealing military weapons, selling military weapons, selling my body, and finally eating in general."
"Mate did you just say sell my body?" The scar dog ear Faunas ask with a dumbfounded look.
"Of course! Do you have something in your ears?" Annoyed he has to repeat himself to a Faunas "People pay for my body." Some people around him started to look disgust while others were gawking.
"Could you elaborate for us. Like why?" Dr. Watch inquire, he had a look of horror but held hope he was misunderstanding.
Demon rolled his eyes. "Well when you can't really hold a steady job more than week people like me tend to resort to different ways of making a living. Ways that involved getting dirty and possibly getting a little rough." A shockwave of cringe hit everyone. "I am a part time mercenary." He says matter of factually.
"Ah!" Every single person said at the exact same time some laughed while others especially Dr. Watch looked relieved.
Noticing the reaction he got Demon ask in serene naive tone. "What... did you think I meant?"
"Nothing!"
"We knew you meant mercenary!"
"Shut up I totally wasn't thinking of something else!"
"Nor was I!"
Was just the few things could be heard in the awkward commotion from everyone talking at once. "That's enough." Dr. Watch says, calming every down. He was almost afraid to ask. "How about your dislikes? What don't you like Demon?"
"Pencils, Grimms, that feeling when you have to sneeze but you can't, and Faunus." Demon answer instinctively. When his words sank deep into each person in the room almost all glare at Demon but none was more mad and offended than the Faunas. The two people who didn't have resentment written on their face was Watch and the human magician girl, the man held a neutral look while she had a more disappointing one as she found the floor suddenly more eyes pleasing to look at. Seeing the displeased look he got only seem to egg on Demon, he smirk. "To be fair Grimms are at least much more cleaner than a Faunas."
"You bigot-"
"Bigot what!?" Demon interrupted the dog ear Faunus with scars on him, He gave him a challenging look with a sly smile. "By all means go ahead and say it."
The scar boy open his mouth as if he was about to say something but stop himself. He seated back in his chair as he literally had to hold on to it to keep himself from pouncing on Demon. "You should feel lucky we don't have our weapons on us." Alex scowl. If he did have his weapons he would more than happy to put this bigot in his place. But he's not stupid, fighting without a weapon would be foolish.
"Speak for yourself!" The jackal ear Faunas shouted. Discarding her marshmallow bag she stood up and pointed her golden color rifle's crosshier at Demon. A twisted smile formed on her lips as a snake, mouse, and a gray owl burst out from the brown pouch attached to her hips. The animals quickly took their place, the snake slither on her shoulder, the mouse crawl on her other, and the owl sat promptly on her head. She cocked her gun. "I'm going to enjoy painting this overly white building with your blood!" Jackie laughed as her pets eyes began to glow pure white. It was at this point Demon notice her eyes were pupiless. She's blind.
Demon smirked. Unsurprisingly to his siblings the prospects of getting into a fight lifted his mood. "Oh really my blood!" Everything around him became meaningless as his vision redden. If she wanted a fight. He pulled out Angst and transform her as he pointed her now gun form at Jackie. She'll get one. "I'm no decorator expert but I think this place would look better covered in your blood instead!" With his other hand he grabbed Regret.
"Cocky aren't we!?" Jackie laughed before suddenly turn grim. "I hate arrogant people." She fire shots at Demon who miraculous dodge all three shots with a simple side steps a duck and just as amazing none of those stray bullets hit anyone else but the walls.
Everyone panic as they spread out against the wall, trying to get as much of distance as they can from the two crazy people, a guy even held his folded up chair as a shield just in case those bullet came his way. "Stop it you guys! Fighting is never the answer. Especially when you're endangering other people lives!" The bat Faunas Skyler pleaded. Skyler hid behind his bat wings like a blanket, he was shaking afraid for his life.
The two ignored everyone pleads to stop this madness. Demon rushed head first towards her. Jackie fire bursts of shots at him, he side step the first four but the last one manage to skim his right shoulder and destroy his glass like aura just as he finally got within close distances of her. Jackie went to put a hole in him with her rifle but as soon as she aimed up close to his chest Demon swung Regret in front of him, directly next to Jackie's golden rifle. "Shield GRAB!"
Regret activated his semblance, the blue wall of shield appeared in front of Demon and him resulting in Jackie's rifle being caught by its nose through the shield. The Faunas jackal expression showed she indeed wasn't expecting that but she didn't let that throw her off. Seeing her gun is still pointed at Demon's shoulder despite being caught, hate wasting a opportunity like this she pulled the trigger countless times which sent dozens of bullets to fly into the boy's shoulder and out from the other side. "How does that FEEL!" Jackie taunted. Blood splatter onto the white floor.
"Oh man that janitor is not going have a fun time with that." Dr. Watch blurted.
With a dark chuckle Demon ripped the gun out of Jackie's hand and threw it over his head as Regret shield turn off so it would fly away behind him. The rifle skidded over to a nearby chair. "It feels like heaven!" Demon walked up and allowed his body to react before his mind did. BONK. He head butted her down on her to the ground.
Dr. Watch cringe. "Oh god that wasn't a pleasant sound at all! Please won't you two stop! I made tofu on crackers for everyone to enjoy I'll even give seconds if you guy stop misbehaving and sit down!" He pleaded but it went unheard by everyone. He lost them at tofu on crackers part.
Jackie rubbed her head and grin. "Head butting a girl! Don't you have any shame?" She joke but she couldn't denied that headbutt hurt a little too much. She enjoys inflicting pain on others not the other way around and by the looks of it she found it disappointing that this bigot wasn't showing any reaction to the holes in his shoulder. This is new. "Boys. Always acting so tough. Well everyone has their limits. I'll find yours soon enough." She thought to herself.
"Well you did shoot me so... Yeah." Demon said in a sheepish tone as Angst engulfed his body in her green healing semblances. Closing his bullet wounds. Jackie low sweep his ankle, sent him falling dramatically to the ground. "NOOOOOOO!" He hit the ground fast, but in his erratic state of mind he begin to imaging himself being pushed off a helicopter in slooow-moootion.
With a handstand Jackie lunge over Demon and did a rolled to her rifle that she grab before sliding away on her knees. Demon thought Jackie was trying to show off her handstand skills, so getting back in action he decided to one up her. Flipping from off his back he spun around upside down in mid air before landing gracefully on his right hand. "I bet you can't do this!" He bragged as he jump back up his two feet.
Jackie rolled her eyes. Yeah she wasn't all that impressed.
Demon notice the blood stain sinking deeper into his attire. He groan. "I can't believe you shot me through. You know how hard it is to find a dry cleaner that doesn't call the feds whenever you bring in a blood stain shirt?"
"You wouldn't have gotten shot if you didn't instigate a fight!" Angst yelled at Demon, she tried to not say a peek because she like Demon was annoyed by the reaction from others whenever their find out she and Regret can talk but she just couldn't hold it in. She needed to point out he was practical asking to get shot. Everyone went silent in shook, a talking weapon tend to have that effect on others.
"Did your sword just.. spoke?" Skyler ask.
Demon snorted at him. "Did your face just talk!?"
"What?"
"Wha?"
"Huh?"
"My point exactly!"
"What point?"
"The point of my blade if you don't shut up!" Demon snapped. It's kinda annoying listening to the same reaction when people find out Regret and Angst can talk. I mean c'mon talking weapons? It can't be that uncommon. He thought.
Seeing her opponent across her seemingly involved in a conversation with someone else in the middle of their fight felt like a slap in her. It was so disrespectful. "So he thinks he can let his guard down eh!?" She thought, her teeth gritted. She was tempted to take this golden chance in getting a free shot, but she has standards. She feels taking out a unaware foes is weak and it's more satisfy to win fair and square then hear their glorious pleads to stop. To stop twisting her blade into their wounds. There's a good reason why she's here in group therapy in the first place. She's a sadists and she wants to hear her latest bigot victim's crises. No therapy in the world is going make her think otherwise!
"Hey we're far from finish!" She went and shot the last clip of bullets around Demon's feet. "Get ready for a world of pain!"
Demon who was scowling at the bat Faunas name Skyler turn to Jackie with an overlying goofy look. "Come at me SIS!" Demon replied. Jackie discarded her empty clip and from out her hip pouch her snake pass her a new one, for her to jam into her rifle. Demon laughed as he slowly made his way towards her, his weapons were lowered down to his hips which meant he was either very brave or very stupid to be in a defenseless stance but one thing was certain it only enrage Jackie more that he's clearly thinking this was a one sided fight. She was going prove him wrong.
As if Demon read her mind he raised Regret and shouted "Shield!" Just quarter of a second earlier before Jackie pulled the trigger.
"S-Shouldn't we like stop them or something!?" Skyler asked to no one specifically anybody would be nice, the bat wing boy was barley keeping himself from freaking out. He never did like a fight among people unless it was directed towards the Grimms of course.
"*munch* what can *munch* we do? All of us are weaponless but those two." A voice belonging to a girl said next to Skyler. Turning to the direction of that voice he saw it belonged to the purple outfit magician. And... chomping on a carrot, seemingly without a care in the world.
Almost forgetting the chaos entirely he asked with a dumbfounded look. "What- I can't even. Why you are you eating!?" He exclaim louder than Jackie's gunfire in the background.
"...Because I'm hungry?" She says in a less in a matter of fact tone and more on the confused side. Was she missing something? All she's doing is eating. Is she offending him or something?
He shook his head. "No I mean how can you have a craving for food at a time like this?"
"Easy." The magician answer with her mouth full. "This is how I think."
"Ok then." Skyler says in a a stale tone. He wasn't sure how eating was suppose to help someone think but not wanting to offend her in anyway he dropped the matter. However it turns out he had already crossed that line.
With a mouth full of carrot the magician girl eyes twitch and her carefree look turn into one of boiling rage. The half eaten carrot slip out from her grip but she wasn't all that concern because before it even hit the ground the raging magician slammed Skyler angst the wall and spoke in a entirely different voice, it held a certain command to it. As if she was someone else. "What's your problem you punk! Huh!? You got something against me eating!"
"What!?" Skyler furiously shook his head. "Nononono! I have no problem, I was just curious is all. I swear!" Skyler breath became heavy and his visions began to blur as his whole world spun around him. "Oh god not again." He thought, feeling the all too familiar feelings. "Please stop acting scary I'm going to faint!" He pleaded.
"Whatever wimp!" She let's go of him.
"Damn it too late." Was Skyler's last nonchalant words before his limp body fell face first onto the floor.
The magician shook her head, her look drastically from anger into guilt. She gasp. "Oh my god I am sososo sorry but you shouldn't have provoke me." She kneel down to Skyler and nudged his shoulder with her wrist. When he didn't move she sigh. "Well just know this. Don't ever disrespect the carrot or else you get the hammer." She warn him politely.
"Fine go hide behind your damn shield coward!" Jackie hissed. Emptying her clip she didn't brother to put a new one in since she was going to change tactics anyway. Pressing a small button on the side of the golden rifle it revealed more then meets the eyes. In a instant it's mechanism parts showed as it folded open, its gears and hidden blades appeared and took form, it transformed in sword. Its blades is longer and slender looking than Angst, the blade also look like to be made up of a dozens smaller pieces opposed to just one long piece of metal. Jackie whisper in a almost motherly way to her weapon. "Let's do this Pain Maker."
Demon laughed with a challengingly taunt just as Jackie made her move and head rush into Demon with her hands behind her. With a mighty roar Jackie sent multiple slash and stabs at the shield that stood in the way of her prey but to no anvil. The strength of Regret's Protecter always seem to varies based on his emotions he's experience, when his mood is in a slump naturally it's just as effective as Demon's glass like aura, when he's angry his shield becomes hard as diamond but at the cost of exhausting his powers very quickly. And now his current emotion, determined. Whenever he has the chance he wants to prove his worth to his brother, he's willingly to do anything it takes to make him proud. Determination that burn fuels in one's soul is Regret's most reliable version of his Protector but not as strong as anger. Something as which would pose a great problem for Jackie if her plan was to shatter it. Why break something if you can just go around it?
Her series of hits were fast and light so when she spun around with her next swing, putting her all into it was more than forceful enough to catch Demon off guard, sending him staggering backwards. With a twisted smile she decided take down her off balance opponent. Pressing another button on the gold hilt of her sword, the dozens of small pieces that made up the blade detached all at once, the only thing connecting the pieces was a cord that went through each blade. It look like to be a combination of both a sword and a five foot long whip.
Before anyone could gawk at such a peculiar looking weapon presented before them, Jackie had already swung her bladed whip at her target. Half of the whip collided into the shield while the other half follow its momentum, flying right for Demon's vulnerable backside. "Demon!" Both Regret and Angst warned. During the past his reaction time could be considered a gift which allowed him to get away facing his more combat experience enemy. However due the lack of practice he had in his time spent in solitude at the asylum and jail recently he wasn't at his sharpest, it also didn't help he seem to have a bit of a off day too. This drawback allowed the whip blade to crash into his back before he even knew what happen.
In fact before the sweet pain he desired so much could be process his imitate reaction was to say in a quipped way. "Wow. Did not she that coming at all." Multiple blades digging deep into the boy's backside. Blood dripping like a leaking pipe from his wounds. "God yeeeeess!" The self sadistic moan lost in the pain or pleasure in his case. Annoying the other sadistic whom like to cause angst on others not make them feel good! With a frustrated grunt Jackie yank her Pain Maker, clawing his back more and sinking in ever so deeper but this prove to show just how much Demon enjoy his brutal treatment releasing another moan with a flush red face. Differential sick pleasure.
Dr. Watch began pleading some more to stop before it become even more out of hand then it already is. Others chimed in too one of which was the magician girl who reason for wanting them to stop was drastically different than everyone else more rational thought process. "Could you please stop I want to sit down. My legs hurt." She couldn't very well sit up front where the fight was taking place.
The back of his clothes and black leather armor were stain dark red with his own blood and it would've bee worse if not for Angst constant healing, ironically it also healed around the blade that dug into him which only made them stuck more into him. "Hey Demon. If it's not too much to ask it be darn great if you would pull your head from out your ass and FOCUS!" Angst demanded snapping him from his sick bliss. Signaling to Regret with a nod to turn shut off his shield, he turned around and with a lunge he pulled the clingy blade off his back. He landed out from Jackie's range as she retracted the bladed whip back together into a sword.
"I guess I could just sit cross legged on the floor." The magician was nonchalant as she did what she said and sat down next to the unconscious Skyler, it was like she was completely oblivious to the madness of the situation playing, but her demeanor was calm. Disturbing a few who paid any mind to her meaningless problem around her. "Eek. My god this floor is dirty. *sigh* maybe I could have just moved my chair closer to me. Oh well life is cruel, all I can do is roll with the punches."
Demon panted the arrogant smirk he had from the very beginning had barely left at all while he stared in the jackal girl's glaring eyes as her snake wrap around her shoulder hissed threateningly. Jackie didn't understand, nobody ever took a direct hit from her infamous Pain Maker and stayed up, unaffected by it. Not even a single tear was shed from him. Jackie smile a maniacal smile. "Well this is new! I say where did you learn to take such punishments like that? Were you trained by someone!?"
Demon match her crazy smile perfectly like a mirror. "You could say something like that! Although it was more of a... accidental process that help me." He admitted with a good nature laugh.
"Really you say so? I'm intrigue, might I ask you be more detailed?"
"Tic tic. Sorry that's personal. Maybe ask me next time when we meet in HELL!" Demon says in a melodramatic way as he turn the mechanism sword in his hand into the gun form. He pointed Angst's right barrel right at Jackie, disregarding the possible casualties his exploding weapon could cause. "Let's see you dodge a explosion!" With a psychopathic glint in his eyes
Red flag rose over the cloud from the word explosion Dr. Watch and some others who just happen to be standing behind Jackie panic, not wanting to be in the splash crossfire the usually jolly man commanded. "STOP IT! This has escalated far enough! SIT DOWN!" He says in for the first time a stern demanding tone, before it turn into timid plead. "please?"
Demon pulled the trigger and everyone but Jackie's life flash before their very eyes as they cover their face with their arms and based for the incoming pain. Contrast Jackie just stood there with a scowl and the magician girl was more curious than concern what was about to happen.
Click...
Click click.
Clickclickclickclickclickclickclick.
"C'mon Angst!" Demon whine. Feeling awfully embarrassed about this lack of chaos he promise to happen.
"Don't look at me you! It's YOU who forgot to reload me!" Angst snapped. How the hell is she to be blame? She can't exactly put Flame Dust in herself given her lack of hands! (And a human body for that matter.)
Hearing this everyone sigh with great relief as a unconvinced human male felt himself to make sure he still had a body. "Well this s- Oh wait!" A delightful look pop up on Demon like a child being finding a cookie but to others with the exception of the magician girl and Jackie. It was the face of death itself and a dreaded look feel upon them as they watch the cheery boy dug through his pockets. "Found it!" He exclaim. He pulled a filthy blood red crystal from out his pocket. It was covered in lint with chocolate stains on it and a small happy face drawn with black ink
"Don't you dare put that dirty thing in me!" Angst yelled.
"That's what she said." Demon laugh. Slapping his knee as he tried to get his breath back. He open up her barrel and slid the crystal in. Providing him with a single one shot, but that's all he needs.
Groaning at the gross feeling of having something so filthy violating her barrel she says "Putting aside the inappropriate and none funny joke you just said to your own sister. Creep." Angst began in a oddly calm tone. "I'm not allowing you to shoot anyone. You going to kill everyone and yourself you maniac." She says a matter of fact.
"I see how this is..." Demon said in a dark matter before giving Angst his heart breaking puppy eyes. "You're betwaying your big bwother." He says in a baby hurt voice. Internally he really was just trying to guilt her. Which she saw as clear as day.
"That's not going to work on me!" Angst flatly said while Regret and the magician girl said aww, falling for Demon's hurt look.
"Come on Angst humor him, I'm positive the explosion won't kill a single soul here. Their aura feel strong enough to eat up the damage." Regret urged. "Probably send them to the hospital through." Regret thought to himself. He would say that through because he was trying impress his brother with his loyalty not go against him.
"Yeah we're super tough! I have muscles!" The magician chime in as she pulled up her right sleeves and flexed her well tone arm muscle. It look likes she spent some time lifting weights.
"Who side are you on!?" Alex asked, dumfounded.
The silly tough face expression magician girl made amused Demon a little bit. Something about her is... fun. He almost feel bad for being rude to her earlier. He wasn't completely sure if she was human or not because of her magician top hat covered her head and might be hiding any of those tell tell sighs of Faunus ears, hopefully not. He might talk to her later. Nothing in particular just a friendly chat. Angst finally cave in, that damn pathetic look in his eyes just ate up her resistance like cotton candy. "*Sigh* against my better judgement." She click off her own safety off, allowing Demon to fire at will.
"Thonk you. You're thee best littal sister a bwother can ask for!" He continue his baby voice that annoyed Angst. If she could sew his mouth shut, she would have a very long time ago. He points Angst back to his inpatient opponent and suddenly spoke with a psychopathic laugh. "Hehehe sorry about that sport! Now where were we. Ah right! DIE!"
He pulled the trigger and unlike previously the flame Dust burst into a bright flare from Angst and at Jackie who made no indication of even move out of the way, everyone that stood in the general path behind her waste no time either duck behind a chair or run as fast as they could. Jackie pupiless eyes flicker in pure white followed by the same flicking of her pet's eyes residing on her. She took a slight side step and spun around, catching the flare as it flew past her to avoid impact and possibly explosion if caught directly. She hissed from the hot pain of the flaming flare but she endure it and spun a few more time so she could steady her aim.
"Holy crap." Demon blurted out his mouth agape. For all his years of fighting he never encounter someone bold enough to catch his flare. In fact he never thought it was possible to begin with!
"No you DIE!" Jackie roar. Coming to her final spin she threw back the flare at sender by a even faster speed than Angst could ever shoot. With near inhuman like reflex Demon ducked, the flare just grazing the tip of his hair as it flew past him, shattering the glass window and flew somewhere outside.
"Oh shit! GREEEY!" Alex cried out to his friend outside. To the unexpected danger heading her way.
KABOOM!
The flare exploded, causing the floor to violently vibrate and making most to stumble from the sudden movement and the force of the explosion shatter the reminding window in the room and a puff of red smoke made its way in the room, blurring the vision to those nearby the window. "You know." Regret began. "I gotta give you props. You been here less than five minutes but you sure know how to stir up chaos." He complimented.
"Thank you." Demon felt so proud of himself he could blush.
"I hate you both." Angst said. She honesty cannot says evien surprise or even disappointed anymore. Demon's antics are fairly common. What the hell was she expecting? Maybe once, a goddamn normal day!
