As the green spinning portal opened. Laharl, Flonne, and Etna stepped through, only to find some bad results. The portal disappeared behind them. As everyone looked, Laharl just closed his eyes and sighed.
"Etna?" He said, un amused.
"Yes?" She replied. Laharl opened his eyes halfway before talking back.
"When we get back, remind me to fire the portal master." He said as the gang started to fall from practically 20 feet in the air. They were starting to wonder where they ended up, until they fell in a giant pot, with a loud thud from the landing.
"Oww..." Flonne said as she rubbed her head. "Where are we?" She asked as she looked out of the pot. As she looked around, she saw what seemed to be a normal village with normal demons. When they jumped out, Etna started to get a little nervous, which was obvious to Laharl.
"What's wrong?" He asked, turning his head. Etna sighed.
"I have a big feeling I'm about to get tackled on in 3...2..." Before she could say one, two demonic kids jumped on her back giggling.
"Miss Etna's back!" Said the two demons as looked down. As Flonne and Laharl looked, they saw it was Hanako and Taro. Taro had blue hair and clothing, and Hanako had pretty much the same reference, except she was pink and didn't usually wear a shirt, just same white flat bra apparently.
"Hanako, Taro!" Flonne yelled in happiness. As Taro and Hanako looked up with curious faces, their faces went to joy as they saw it was.
"Flonne!" Taro and Hanako said simultaneously, as they both ran up to hug her. Flonne giggled as she kneeled down to hug them back as they came near. Etna, who was still flat on the ground from when she was pinned lifted her head up.
"Ya, that's them alright." She said with an assured attitude as she got up, brushing the dust off her skirt.
"What are you guys doing back here?" Hanako asked as she and Taro let go of Flonne. Flonne was about to answer until a mysterious voice from inside the house next to them spoke.
"Taro, Hanako? I thought you agreed you'd help me make the pie for des..." The voice was saying as she opened the door, until she saw Laharl and co.
"Rozalin!" Flonne cheered as she saw. But the groups eyes caught something different as they looked at her stomache. They gasped as they saw a belly bulging out, but nowhere hanging out of her clothes. Laharl just fainted as he fell back. "Rozalin...you're...you're..." Flonne tried to say as she looked.
"Pregnant?!" Etna yelled, surprised at this. Rozalin giggled with a reply as Taro and Hanako just kept poking Laharl with a stick, trying to wake him up.
"Hey, Adell? They're back." She said as she hollered into the house. Laharl, Flonne, and Etna heard footsteps as they saw the red-haired guy step outside. Adell's expression went to annoyed as he saw the group.
"Aww man, how many times do I have to tell you guys, you CAN'T have my sister to work at the netherworld?!" Adell said, glaring at Laharl who was on the floor. Laharl lurched up as he felt a twig poke the inside of his nose, causing Taro and Hanako to take a step back.
"Ow! Hey, what's the..." Laharl said, raising his fist at them, before he saw Adell glaring at him. "You!" He shouted as he suddenly stood.
"Look prince, knowing how 'strong' I think you are..." Etna started, using a high amount of on the strong word, "don't you think it's best we get going?"
Laharl just glared at her before he sighed. "Yaa fine, I'll kick his butt later." He said as the three of them started to walk away.
"What? You're leaving?!" Taro and Hanako said in disbelief, as their faces went to depression. Flonne nodded her head as a reply.
"I'm afraid we cant stay here very long. We're looking for Baal." Flonne said, as her face suddenly went nervous as she saw other demons who heard her staring at her. They ran inside, closing their doors loudly. Laharl and Etna went to irritated as the heard her said this. "Was it something I said?" Flonne tried asking to her surroundings as she stood.
"Itch née on the demon thing Flonne. You're gonna get us into more trouble." Etna said, pulling Flonne's arm closer.
"Hold it; you're looking for who now?" Adell said, surprised as he stepped outside.
"Nice going love freak." Laharl murmured to himself, as he started to explain the situation to Adell and his family.
"Wow, that's quite a lot." Rozalin said surprised.
"But how do you know he's going to end up here?" Taro asked.
"Baal has a unique ability to transfer souls into other people, he did the same thing with Flonne." Laharl said. As Taro and Hanako looked at Flonne, she just turned her head to the side, a bit upsettingly. "We've been looking for all the areas he's been to in the past, and figured that he's going to go to some of the most powerful demon's he can find." Laharl said shifting his eyes to Rozalin. Rozalin just looked at Laharl gasping a bit, as she took a step back. Adell put his hand on her shoulder, hoping to calm her down.
"Don't worry, there's no way I'm gonna let that freak get to you." Adell said, trying to make her relax. Rozalin just nodded, showing that she trusted him.
"It's not her that I'm talking about." Laharl said, cuasing Adell and Rozalin to look at him a bit surprised.
"What do you mean?" Adell asked.
"He's talking about that other soul thing Rozalin has, ya know? The one that kicked his butt?" Etna said pointing to Laharl, laughing, cuasing Laharl to start gritting his teeth in anger. Her laughter didn't last long as Laharl knocked her on the head. "Ow..." She said, rubbing the new bump she received.
"Umm...say, I was wondering...umm..." Flonne said looking at Rozalin. She was trying to think of a polite way to ask her question without sounding rude, or going into much detail, mostly for Laharl's sake. Rozalin just smiled as she knew what she was going to ask.
"Well, isn't it obvious?" Rozalin asked, disappointed with the no-nod she received from Laharl and the gang. "Show her Adell." Rozalin said, looking at him.
"Uhh...I....uh...don't know what are talking about." Adell lied looking away, obvious that he wasn't telling the truth.
"Adell!" Rozalin shouted in his ears. Adell sighed as he gave up trying to hide it.
"Alright alright alright." He said as he took off his battle gloves. Laharl, Etna, and Flonne looked at his hand, surprised to see a diamond ring. Flonne looked happily as she clapped her hands.
"Congratulations!" Flonne yelled, still looking at the ring. "What about your ring Rozalin? What does it look like?" Rozalin just nodded sideways as a reply.
"No, I already had one." Rozalin said, showing the giant diamond ring she has. The three stared in awe as they saw it shine. "Besides, Adell didn't have enough money for a house and a ring."
"But I thought you said Mom and Dad gave you the house to go travel the world?" Hanako said, curious.
"Sssshh." Adell said, raising his finger to his mouth as a sign to keep quiet. Rozalin's eyes started to flare up.
"You what?!" Rozalin said, glaring at Adell.
"W-Well I kinda thought I'd be pointless to buy another ring if you already got one..." He said nervously. Everyone else just laughed except for Laharl.
"Quite laughing, we're here to find Baal, not lily gag all day!" Laharl shouted, banging the table. Everyone stopped as they saw him angered. "Look, we don't have time to talk about things, we need to go find Baal, now!"
"Well, there is a way to get a portal straight to his lair from here." Adell said, causing Laharl, Flonne, and Etna to go wide eye.
"What?!" The three said, simultaneously. Laharl looked at him strangely, getting a bit suspicious.
"What would we have to do...." Laharl asked.
