I'll just leave it here.
"You don't need me
like I want you, oh...
Like I need you"
YOU
She could live wherever she wanted to. Ooo is a ginormous place, anyways, and any place away from her dad would be better.
Mostly if that "any place" were somewhere near the person she loved the most… But it was too early to face that icy part of Ooo. Her half-demon heart wasn't ready yet.
What shocked her was that big place close by. Even in the dark she was able to sight a great tower and all the colours of that place. Wondering if there's some red thing to suck, she took a closer look in the city. The inhabitants were sleeping, of course, but in the top of the previous tower a light was on. Glimmering in a way she couldn't resist. When she noticed the light, she already was there. And there she found something that made her run away.
The young demon couldn't obey her mind, though. That little species was so interesting to not pay further attention – even stimulating her appetite. Thus, she ended up floating towards the Candy Kingdom – as she discovered it's called that colourful place. The giant creatures with upside down ice cream's heads didn't notice her trespassing due how fast she could fly. Up and up she reaches the porch in the top of the tower.
She thought she couldn't see the big cradle in the room because was already late at night but no. The cradle wasn't there anymore. Wondering where they could have placed the little baby, she bumped in something and a little whine started.
"Hiss! What!", she whispered.
And the cry didn't cease.
Until she find the source of it and hold it between her slim arms.
"Shh… shh! Oh, glob. I'm sorry, ok? I'm sorry."
The cry faded away.
With the baby in her arms, she realized it was a bigger version of the one she saw last night.
"Maybe they have more babies around here?"
Nah. The young woman didn't need her supernatural senses to say that little one was the one she first saw. A brief smile made its way in her thin lips.
"Hey, you,", she said in the most delicate way, "how come you're that big tonight?"
Of course she wasn't expecting a verbal response, but the smile she received was better than any word, better than any gesture - so innocent and happy. Nothing similar to the things you see in the Nightosphere.
In that moment she knew the baby felt secure in her arms. They started floating around the room as the baby fell asleep and she sang some lullabies.
The routine keeps like that for a more couple of days. Every now and then the pink little baby got slightly bigger and the demon lady understood nothing. But finally it came the day the baby wasn't a no-talking-only-cries-baby anymore and she managed to get some information at last. The now child's name's Bonnibel, even though everyone used to call her "Bubblegum" due the element she was made of. And she's a princess. The kingdom would fall apart if it has no governor so Bonnibel was created to rule the place and they needed her to grow as fast as possible by adding more candy into her…
Don't argue, dude. Ooo isn't a boring place like the one you live.
The little lady has a short hair that framed her round and rosy face and the candy people gave her a nice old-fashioned pink gown with some yellow details that make it more adorable. They started talking every night and the conversations became endless, reaching a point her mentors were getting mad for not knowing what made the little royal girl so sleepy in the classes.
"But why do you need to learn all those stuff, Bonnie?"
"Because I'll soon be the ruler of those people.", she answered.
Bonnibel and the young demon girl were laying on the new bed the pink princess got. The two ladies settled they would talk early in the night so the youngest could sleep well… not that this really works, but they actually try.
"I don't think you gotta learn everything to rule a place. I mean, I know someone who's so stupid I can't believe he's the greatest down there."
"Down where?"
"Oh, never mind."
The little girl was getting used to the enigmatic comments her new friend said sometimes. She just moves on.
"My mentors say I really need to learn everything they teach me. So no one will take my place and I'll make my people happy", she stood up and grabbed the demon's hands, leading her to a mirror, "Can't you see how much responsibility I'll take?"
"Nah"
Bonnibel laughed. She picked the crown-thing she keeps in her head, asks the other one to bend and placed it on her. Both looking at the mirror, she said:
"Now you are a princess."
"Now I'm stupid", she dead-pained.
Among the laughs, a lovely critic has risen.
"You never told me your name."
"She has a point", the other thought. Lifting up in the air with her, she said,
"You can call me Marcy."
"I can't steal you, no
Like you stole me"
After What Was Missing and Sky Witch one does not simply make no conjucture about these ladies.
This chapter takes place after the Fries Incident.
