I'm back Boi! And I got another chapter for all y'all to read. And don't forget to leave a review on what you thought of the chapter.

The day was a new. Ban was asleep in his bed, at which one of the twins slammed on his door, telling him that he had overslept. Ban yawned as he stretched his waking body. The door to his room still thrashed by the hand. Ban ignores the door smashing and got on his normal clothes. He than opened up the door to see Rem standing in front of it. "Oh, you are awake now. Good. Nii-sama needs your help in the kitchen."

"Okay," Ban says plainly with not much care.


Within the kitchen, Ban and Ram are preparing the meal for breakfast.

The room was quite, all but for the sounds of food being cooked and chopped. As Ban was cooking to eggs, he than has a thought. "Hey, Ram," he said bluntly.

*Sigh* "Yes...Ban."

"Where's that sister of yours at?"

"She and Barusu are preparing the dining table."

"And Escanor?"

"I don't know. He's probably outside picking berries or something."

Oh right, Ban thinks, Escanor's supposed to be the drink maker.

"Hmh. So...you want to have a little contest," Ban asked.

"No. There is nothing I need to prove to you that I'm better at."

Damn, she's full of herself, Ban thinks. He than has a smart idea.

"Really!? You're just scared that I'll show you up," Ban accused Ram.

"Really!? And what makes you think I'm scared to accept a challenge from someone such as yourself?"

"Than prove it. I bet I can cook a better tasting meal than you can."

"You're on."

Ban cracks a cocky smile as he thinks, This is gonna be fun.


Ban and Ram entered the dining room to see Emilia and Rosewall seated in their chairs. Rem and Subaru were there as well.

Ban and Ram laid the food on the table, and then the two waited, looking at one another with competitive flair in their eyes.

The two dishes they made was made by both of them. One set from Ban and the other by Ram.

However, Rosewall and Emilia did not know this so to not make it beius.

Ban and Ram remain silent for the remainder until the two ate all that they could.

When Emilia and Rosewall finished their breakfast, Ram asked, "So~...how was the food?"

"Great as always, Ram," Rosewall praises the maid.

"Hmh. See BAN? I told you I could beat any dish you make."

Ban rolls his eyes and says, "So who made the better food? Me or Ram?"

"Oh, um~," Emilia paused, "I can't say. I don't know who cooked what."

Ban fell on his head than got up and said, "Why didn't I fucking think about that?" Ban, after saying that, seen Subaru's demeanor. The boy was fidgeting his hands strangely.

What the hell's up with him, Ban thought. He thought for a minute and than just shrugged it off, just thinking that Subaru just does not like standing still or not talking.


Ban was now outside of the mansion, regugingly helping with trimming the greenery around the mansion's outer shell.

The day was not too hot but was a little brisk. The wind lightly breath. The plants that he, Subaru and the two maids were trimming waved back to the moving air.

As Ban was doing his work, he saw Escanor, who was trying to help, constantly getting scared every time he thought he saw a bug.

Ban felt a small amount of humiliation to how Escanor was acting.

"Escanor, stop screaming like a girl. You're embarrassing me."

"Sorry, Sir Ban. It's just that I hate bugs."

"...really," Ban asked plainly.

"You are very sad," Ram said to Escanor, "If Barusu is able to out work you than you are just pathetic."

Strangely, or not, Subaru did not bark back at the insult Ram said, which cause a red flag of shorts to go off in Ban's mind.

"So, what are we gonna be doing after this," Ban asked.

"Why, do you have other plans than serving Rosewall-sama," Ram asked.

Ban cracks a smile and tells her, "Maybe~."

"And what would that be, Ban," Rem asked.

"Finding my friends, what else."

"You mean your comrades."

"Who else?"

"Than I assume you will be going after," Rem assumes to Ban.

"More than likely."

"Than let's find them as soon as possible," Ram said, "I doubt I'll be able to handle you for much longer."

"Hahahaha, that's funny," Ban laughs.

"Why is that funny. Do you not take me seriously," Ram asked him.

"Yeah. I don't take you seriously. You're a stuck up little kid who thinks she's better than everyone," Ban answers honestly.

Rem tightened her grip on the sheirs hearing Ban say this. Subaru saw the way Rem looked at Ban, which brought fear down his spine as he saw that same look before though Ban seemed to not have notest it.


It's five o'clock in the afternoon when Ban had finished his chores of the day. He was beyond happy about the accomplishment. He walked through the mansion hallway, heading to his room to get some sleep. He went back to the door that he remembered to be his room and opened it to see that it was indeed his room. It was left the way he left it. A complete wreck.

The sheets on the bed were barely on it. Food he had ate were on the ground. Clothes were scattered around his room. Just the way he likes it.

The giant of a man fell onto the bed, saying , "Damn, I can't believe that being a servant would be that hard. And those two make it look easy." *Yawn* "Will, I think I'll ought to get some shut eye." *Yawn* "Yeah."

Ban placed his arms behind his head as he started to relax himself. He closed his eyes...and for a minute, he slept with great peace.

*KNOCK* *KNOCK* *KNOCK*

"Wha-!? Who tha fuck," Ban said confusedly. He sighed unhappily before he got up out of his bed and leapt to the door to open it.

As he opened the door, he demanded, "Who tha fuck is it!?

He then saw Subaru, who looked very scared by Ban for a moment before composing himself. He than asked, "Uh~...is this a bad time?"

Ban sighed and started to walk back to his bed as Subaru enters his room. Ban looked at Subaru and asked, "So what do you want, Natsuki?"

"Ummm...you see, um...can you protect me?"

"Protect you?"

"Yeah, but just for the rest of the day."

"Why? Is someone after you or something?"

""I-I can't say," Subaru tells Ban.

"Why the hell not?"

"Cause I…can't."

Ban rolled his eyes and said, "I can't protect you if I don't know what I'm protecting you from, you know."

"I...know that but...please, just do it. Please," Subaru begs Ban.

*Sigh* "And what do I get in return for helping you?"

"W-what!? You're joking, right? It's not the time for you to think of yourself" Subaru tells the Fox sin.

"Nope, right now. What will I get if I protect you?"

"Come on! We really don't have time for that. It's not long before the person comes after me," Subaru tells Ban, getting irritated by how relenting Ban was being.

Suddenly, Ban bursted out laughing, "Ahahahahahaha,ahaha,ahaha! You should have seen your face! The complete fear you showed is priceless!"

"WERE YOU JOKING," Subaru raised his voice at Ban, feeling mad at being made a fool.

Ban than stopped his laughing to answer Subaru, saying, "Yeah...and it was so fucking

worth it."

Subaru blows a sigh of relief hearing Ban was just joking. "So you'll protect be?"

"Yeah, there ain't nothing better to do and plus, I might get to actually punch something."

"Thank you, thank you, thank you. Now I know I'll be able to survive the night."

"Yeah...whatever. Now can you get out? I'm going back to sleep."

"Okay," Subaru said, "Than I'll just stay here until you wake up."

"Okay, whatever," Ban said before going to sleep town.


Escanor was walking through the kitchen of the mansion, looking for curtains ingredients for his cocktails. As he was looking through the curburts and shelves of the kitchen. He heard the sound of the kitchen door open. He quickly turned around to see that it was Rem.

"O-oh, Ms. Rem, it's you. Um...I was just looking to see if there were any ingredients I could use to make some fine alcohol," Escanor needlessly explains to the maid."

The blue haired maid did not answer back to Escanor and just walked to the sink and start cleaning the dishes as she mumbles something.

Escanor could barely make out anything so he got a little closer to Rem. He than was able to understand the maid, which made him wish he decided not to.

"How dare he say that," Rem said with angrily, "How dare he say that to Nee-sama!? And he decided to do it right in from of me. He has no right to say what he said. He knows nothing about Nee-sama. Notting! He's nothing. Nothing! He's just a-a-a—"

The sound of the plate breaking echoed throughout the kitchen. Escanor jumps back from Rem, getting completely startled the plate breaking.

Rem looked at Escanor with a murderous glare that sent chills down Escanor's spine. He gulps before saying, "E-e-I heard nothing," before running out of the kitchen in fear.

As Escanor runs out of the room and turns to the corner, he forgets to look where he was going and bumped in to Ram, making to to fall down. "Ow! Watch where you're going," she said.

Escanor's heart sunk down even more as he sees Rem look down at him from the kitchen door. He quickly gets up, saying, "I'm so sorry," before running again.

"What was up with him," Ram asked.

"I do not know, Nee-sama. Maybe he saw a spider."

"I wouldn't be supposed. He seems to be fearful of everything."


The day has officially become night. The sun had gone down and the sky darkened. Starts came out and played in the night sky.

It felt terrifying for Subaru. Waiting and waiting for the person. He looked at Ban, who was sound asleep like a newborn baby. Subaru sighed and whispers to himself. "At least if she does attack, I can wake Ban up. Hopefully he can beat her. No! What am I saying. Of course he can. He can't die after all...so he should easily beat her. Yeah, that's right. And plus, if I stay in here, than she'll never find me...hopefully."

He than hears the sound of his stomach roar in hunger.

Dang, I forgot to eat something, Subaru thinks it himself, and the only place I can get good at is outside where she's at. You know what, I can handle it. It's better to go hungry than getting killed again.

His stomach calls out again, though louder now. His hunger seemed to get stronger and stronger every second until Subaru was unable to handle it any longer.

Subaru gets up from the bedside and slowly cracked open the door of Ban's room. The hall seemed endless from the darkness that had laid over it. Subaru gulps as he slowly opened Ban's door and started to slowly walk down the night filled hallway. The pictures placed along the walls don't chills down the kid's spine. Normally they would look ordinary but due to the fact of a murderer being in the same building as he was made them look ominous. He tried to forget the pictures and their eyes that seemed to be staring at him...or was that just his imagination taking hold.

He slowly walked down the staircase, not trying to miss his footing and fall down the stairs. He could barely even see the stairs in the first place. When he ha smash it down the flight of stairs, he hear a sound. Footsteps were heard not too far from where he stood. His heartbeat raced at the speed of a hummingbird's wings as he held his breath in fear.

No...no...no, Subaru though as he started panicking. He know he would be killed before he could even get back to Ban's room.

Than, suddenly, he felt something fly straight past his head, barely missing it.

This something was not small be a medium sized ball with spikes through it. It was a type of morning star mace.

Subaru's terrified face turned from a one to ten instantly. His heartbeat shot through the roof. Adrenaline pumped through his body as his mind made one decision.

Run.

Not even caring of what could happen to himself, Subaru bolted back up the staircase just as the morning star came flying towards him again.

The large black, spiky ball crashes into the wall was Subaru dukes. The terrified Subaru looked behind him as the ball retracted back into the dark. He gulps as a single horn glowing with a pink hue coming towards him.

A voice echoes in the halls as Subaru looked at the horn, "Don't worry, it will all be over soon."

Subaru saw the silhouette of Rem as she came closer. When Subaru started to get up, Rem through her morning star at Subaru, at which he barely even dodged, almost getting his right leg smashed. Subaru ran and turned the corner of the hallway, but he was not thinking of getting Ban but instead was thinking to hide.

Just after he turned the corner, he tried to open the first door he could get his hands on. He twisted the doorknob to see that it was unlocked. He opened it, ran inside, and slammed the door closed, panting like a dying animal. He looked up to see that he was in the library, or that what he assumed since it was too dark that he could only see faint silhouettes of large wooden shelves that he assumed must have books in them.

He let out a sigh of relief as he fell against the door he had just closed. "Th-that was too close," he said. He panted a little more before saying, "If I stay here, then she might not find me." He sacked his head as he than said, "No, no, no. What am I saying? She knows this place like the back of her hand. She'll definitely find me sooner or later. I need to get Ban so he'll stop her."

Subaru got up before he reopened the library door to see that Rem was seemingly nowhere to be seen. Subaru sighed again before he slowly gone out into the hallway and closed the door softly. He than slowly walked to Ban's door and started to open it but to find it was locked.

Aw come on, he thought. Subaru starts to hesitate now and decided to slam on the door to hopefully wake the sin up.


Ban's eyes shot open as the sound of slamming was echoing in his room. "Who tha fuck is it now," he angrily asked before getting out of the bed and opening the door to be greeted by Subaru, scared out of his mind. "What tha fuck do you want," Ban asked, "And why'd that face of yours scared shitless."

"Can't explains, need help, please," Subaru jumbles up his words.

*sigh* "Fine," the sin said before walking out of his room, "Who's ass am I gonna kick?"

Than, just as Ban said this, morning star can from Ban's right, and decimated his head, hacking blood splatter on Subaru's face.

"One down," Rem confirms to herself as morning star comes back to her. She than steers at Subaru.

His heart thunders loudly as his brain thought of a way out, not thinking clear enough to remember of Ban's immortality. He turns to run but he barely got anywhere before he trips over nothing.

"How sad. You are not even good at running away. You are better dead."

Rem throws her Morning Star straight at Subaru, who though, dang it, even after getting Ban to help me, I'm still going to die.

Then a spark light up a light bulb in Subaru's brain. Ban's immortal, Subaru remembered.

Morning Star reaches Subaru's body by a hair before it stopped and pulled back.

"What tha," Rem exclaims before she seen another hand holding onto the chain.

"Don't count me out of the fight yet," Ban said right behind Rem.

The oni's eyes widened in shock as a sense of fear slowly creeks inside her. Reacting accordingly, Rem swings Morning Star at Ban again, at which he easily catches it like it was a toy. "Don't think you'll get me again, kid. That was just a lucky shot." He than let go of the spiked ball.

"How? HOW ARE YOU STILL ALIVE," Rem asked, demanding to know the answer.

"A better question is, why are you attacking us?"

Rem did not answer and pulled back Morning Star as she moved back from Ban.

Rem death gripped Morning Star just before she slung the spiked ball at Ban again at which he grabbed it and pulled it to him, causing Rem to get tugged with it. She tries to tug the chain back but to only be greeted with more power on Ban's end. Soon, Ban had enough of the Tug-of-War the two were having. He used his full strength and made Rem go flying towards him. He let go of the ball and grabbed Rem by her throat.

"Kid, This was fun and all, but I'm far beyond your league," he tells Rem before he starts tightening his grip around her neck.

Rem struggles to get out of Ban's grip as she slowly starts to see the environment around her start to blacken.

Even though she was about to pass out, she raised her hand in front of Ban's face and raspingly said, "El Huma."

Ice spikes appear in front of Ban's face and, knowing what is going to happen, he says, "Shit."

The spikes of ice shoot through Ban's face, disappearing afterwards. Rem is dropped to the ground, starting to cough, her horn disappearing.

"Damn, that was one fucking brain freeze," the Fox sin said as his face heals from the trauma afflicted onto it." Ban looks down at Rem, who was still coughing. As Ban gets ready to finish the job, he tells her, "I'm sorry kid, but you messed with the wrong damn person tonight."

"What's going on here," a familiar voice said.

Ban looked behind him to see Emilia, who was wearing a nightgown. Ram was right beside her.

"What's going on is that your serve to tried to kill me and Natsuki."

"Rem," Ram said seeing her sister on her knees. The older sister ran towards her younger

"Rem, is that true," Emilia asked, not wanting to believe what Ban said.

"Y-yes ma'am," Rem grudgingly answered truthfully.

"But why would you even think of such a thing," the half-elf asked the oni.

"Cause they are apart of the Witch Cult."

"Kid, I got no fucking idea what a Witch Cult even is and I dough that wimp if a man does eather," Ban tells Rem.

"Hey, not called for," Subaru interjected.

Ban looked at Subaru and said, "Than do you got any fucking clue what she's talking about?"

"No."

"My point taken. Anyway, we aren't apart of some damn Witch Cult, you got it, kid," Ban tells Rem.

"Y-yes sir," She said weakly.

"Okay, good. Glad we can get that out of the fucking way," he said before yawning, "Anyway, I gonna go back to sleep. See all y'all tomorrow or whatever."

Yep, this is how it ends. Lazy, I know but I ran out of ideas for this chapter so don't kill the messenger. Anyway, I'm gonna go start writing for my other fanfic now. So see y'all later.
