Hey guys, this is the first Fanfic I have ever written, so if I'm doing something wrong, feel free to tell me.
Oh, and I promise that the second chapter will be way longer an twice as interesting.

Iris hated crowds. Well, hate wasn't really the right way to put it. She feared them. It wasn't as if she didn't like it outside or anything. she just didn't feel adequit around people,(and they weren't exactly comfortable around her either). So I'm sure you could imagine the magnetude of her displeasure when she awoke to an empty coffee cup.
As soon as her unshod feet hit the cold wood floor, Iris Amberbroom had an uneasy feeling. It started in the pit of her stomach, and quickly rose to her upper most part of her hair (which, on account of her untamable bed head, was a pretty long way to travel). She padded uneasily to her kitchen, making a mental checklist of the things she would do that morning as she went. 'Okay', she thought, 'First, i need to make coffee. Then I'll brush my teeth and get dressed.' She blew a renegade piece of ivy green hair out of her eye and sighed.' Maybe I'll skip brushing my hair today'. She fumbled blearily for the silver knob of her pantry door and yanked the door open, impatient for her morning fix.
There, in the spot where the box of instant coffee had been, was open air. She groaned. How had she not foreseen this? Usually she just ordered more supplies when she noticed the amount of whatever she needed was depleting. Except for today. The feeling of unease grew into one of panic as she flung things aside, searching for even a single dreg of instant coffee .None was to be seen. "Okay" she murmured, "It's going to be fine".
She sat down and tried to reason with herself. 'Going without coffee is not an option', she thought. Iris suddenly wished she had someone to send for food. It was difficult having to inspect all of her supplies, estimating what the best time to order more would be and how many she needed. If only she wasn't able to-no, she thought .Don't think about that right now .'I know' her mind chimed, 'I'll flip a coin .'Heads I stay here and hold off on coffee for a couple of days, and Tails...I go outside to get my coffee myself'. She cringed at that second thought, but both of her options were pretty bad.
She got up and rushed to her purse, where she retrieved a penny which clutching it with white knuckles .So, with a shaky whisper of "Don't fail me now", she flicked the coin into the air. It rolled into the living room, Iris trailing it eagerly, and landed on it's side .Tails. She swore visciously and kicked the penny. This day was progressing into a nightmare.
She sighed and tried to hold back the coming hysteria. 'I have to do this', she thought, and lifted her pointed chin in defiance of her fear.' I can't shut myself away from humanity forever'. And with that thought, she rushed off to get dressed, determined to leave before she could change her mind. She had no idea how one simple trip could change her life.
Mephesto Pheles was a patient man. He always stopped at stop signs and calmly dealt with his occasionally misbehaving students. However, that can quickly change when sweets are involved. They were part of the reason of why he was so patient, because they took the edge off of things. So when he was informed of his new mission in New York City from the Vatican he shook his head in annoyance. "Why is the Vatican always sending me places with terrible candy?" He exclaimed.
He had been to America several times before, and each time was terrible. The food was terrible and the people were rude. Not to mention the fashion. The Amercans had no culture! He rolled his eyes in disgust, pulling at the tall swirl of yellow hair at the top of his head with a purple gloved hand. If it wasn't for my exile in Gehenna, I'd-"brother, what's that?"
Mephesto didn't have to look up to know that his younger brother was somehow hanging by his knees from the ceiling, a green lollipop hanging out of his mouth .Like the candy, his hair was also a toxic shade of green, that shaded to yellow at the top of the giant spike of hair on his head."Hello, Amaimon. Nice of you to join me." Amaimon paused. "umm, yeah, I know, but what's that paper thing?'' Mephesto his yellow eyed little brother could be such an annoyance. "That paper 'thing' would be the specifications for my new mission in New York city. It says I have to investigate the case of one one Iris AmberBroom."
