"Did your brother accept your offer to join us?" "No. He is too stubborn. Its a waste of time." "You do understand that it is bad for him to be over there, consisting of your enemies Lucifer." "I know that. But theres nothing i can do. If he wishes to say over there, so be it." "You wont kill him" "What makes you so sure Alexiel?" "I know you, you love him too much to kill him." "Heh. Your right." "I always am." Alexiel bent over and kissed Lucifer. "There you are Shadow" Lucifer watched the chinese girl walk up to them. "You are looking unusually happy today" he said between kisses. "What happened these past few days?" Alexiel played with Lucifer's hair, twisting it around her fingers. "I just met some friends that i havent seen in a while." "Well well well. Remember to keep your legs closed, you belong to me." "Whatever you say Luci-chan" She grinned. "Oh you know i hate that name." "I know, thats the point. You just better make sure Alexiel doesnt start calling you it." Alexiel laughed and pulled Shadow over to them. "Give us a hug and run along little one" She said. Shadow hugged them and took off.

She walked around the building of Duo's enemies, all the while thinking about last night. A voice made her jump. "Where have you been?" Kurai jumped down from some stairs to greet her. "With some friends." "Oh. Lucifer has been asking about you. You know he doesnt like it when you run off, you being related to him and all." "Kurai, im not related to him. He just found me on the streets and has taken care of me ever since." "Well he treats you like family" Kurai shoved her hands into her pockets and shrugged. "His family is on the other side. You and i both know that Kurai." "Yea well" she shrugged again. "Im gonna get out of here." "Why dont you stay and say hi to everyone? they have been wondering if you were dead or alive." "Fine." Kurai lead Shadow to the main room of the building. "Hey everyone Shadow is back" Kurai announced and walked over to Arachne.

Shadow stumbled over to a couch and slumped next to Belial. "Hello kid. How have you been?" She smiled and raised a beer. "Very tired." "Oh yea? what have you been doing?" "Nothing." "You cant be tired off of doing nothing." "Hey im gonna get out of here." "Whats the rush? stay a while and hang out with us. We hardly ever see you now. You are either with Lucifer or Alexiel." "Nope, i go out on my own." "Just be careful. If Lucifer finds out that you get into trouble, all hell will break loose." "I know" Shadow laughed and grabbed the beer bottle from Belial and slammed a gulp down. "Damn we gotta get you some vodka or something" Belial joked. "Your drunk. No thanks."

"Hey there Duo" Sara ran up to him in the street. "Havent seen you in a while." "I know." "Where are you headed?" "The pit." "Really? then ill join you." She walked along side him, chattering on. "Setsuna said that you talked to him. He hasnt seen you in a while. Come to think of it, none of us have. What have you been up to Duo?" "Ah ive just been staying home, walking around. I just havent been to the pit that much." "Oh. Well some people need their time away. I mean look at Michael. No one has seen him in a while." "I saw him afew days ago. Hes fine." "Yea. Hey theres Katou!" They ran over to Katou, who was asleep in the streets. "Hes got a black eye. I wonder how long he has been here." "With Katou, who knows" Sara shrugged her shoulders.

They got him up and carried him the rest of the way to the pit. "Kira can you take him?" Duo asked, dropping Katou onto a couch in the living room. They were upstairs in one of the cleaner apartments above the club. "Yea yea, just leave him there." Kira walked over to the couch and started to shake Katou hard. "Katou what happened to you?!! wake the fuck up!!" he shouted in Katou's ear. "Michael" he spat and Kira dropped him. "Heh figures. He must have run into him while he was pissed off or something. Oh well, put some ice on it and he will be fine" Kira laughed and headed into the kitchen and returned with an ice pack. He placed it on Katou's eye. "He is probably too stoned to feel the cold so he will be better in no time." "Wheres Setsuna?" Sara spoke up. "In the shower." "Oh. Ok, so i guess ill stay here then." "Im gonna go find Michael." "He should be in Raphael's apartment" Kira suggested. "Ok then, see you later."

Duo left the room and headed across the hall opening the door. "Damn Raphael. Do you think you sleep enough?" "Hes unconscious" Michael muttered from a corner. He was crouched on a chair. "There you are. Are you responsible for Katou's misfortune?" "Yep. You found him in the street?" "Sure did. Atleast we found him before the cops did. How your shoulder?" "Fine." "Ok. Where is that idiot Yogi? hes not at the bar. He should be since he owns this place." "What are you thinking?" "I hate all these individual apartments. I think we whould knock out afew walls. Give you something to destroy, and we would have alot more space." "Sounds good to me" Raphael sat up, rubbing his head. "I hate this tiny, dirty apartment" He mumbled. "I wonder why" Duo said sarcasticly. "Okay lets get started. Jibril's room is next to this one. Im going to grab a sledge hammer." "Theres one in the closet" Raphael muttered. "Why do you have a sledge hammer in your closet Raphael?" Duo asked.

"Dont ask." Michael grabbed the hammer and went up to the wall, smashing a big hole into it. He continued until he could step through it. Jibril had just gotten out of the shower and was only wrapped in a towel when Michael plowed through. "What the fuck are you doing?!" She shouted. "This is the wrecking crew, making the apartment bigger and better fit to live in" Michael replied and continued, using his good arm to smash the wall. "You are so full of shit Michael!" She screamed and stormed off into the bathroom. "Hey guys im gonna go out again" Duo interrupted Michael's little destroyer saga. "Off to where?" He asked.

"Oh i dont know. Somewhere I guess." Jibril walked out of the shower, dressed in a short black dress, "Whats the rush? we hardly ever see you anymore. You are never at the club. Where do you go?" She asked. Jibril strolled up to him and put her hands on her hips, staring him down. "I have an apartment that i stay at" he gulped. Michael laughed sarcastically, "Bull shit!" he shouted and continued breaking down the walls. "Why dont you pick up a hammer and help me do this instead of running off Duo Maxwell!!" He shouted while he hit the wall.

"With what smart guy?! I seriously doubt Raphael has a spare hammer in his closet!" "There should be one in there if you look under all the bags of shit" the blonde muttered and lit up a cigarette. "Jesus! why do you have hammers in your closet Ralphie?" Jibril laughed. "Dont call me that. I hate it when you call me that." "Thats the point Ralphie. Theres other things i could call you that are worse than Ralphie. Would you like me to give them a shot?" "No i do not want to hear any of your stupid nicknames. Its usually Sara who calls me all that shit." "Yea. She made it up."

"I should have known. Do not call me any of your kid names Jibril." "Sara is a stupid air head who is in love with her brother! she is going to go to hell for that and so is her idiot brother!" Michael shouted. "And so are you for cussing!" Sara walked into the room, hearing Michael's remark. He turned around and looked at her. "Uh this is where you growl and turn around" Jibril joked. "OH fuck all of you!" he screamed and continued hammering. "Watchout guys. He is gonna be the next serial killer on the street" Kira walked in. "I heard all the noise and was wondering what fuck you were doing." "We are remodeling Ralphie's room" Jibril said. "Dont call me that!" Raphael screamed from his bed. Duo laughed to himself and pulled off his jacket.

He grabbed a hammer from the closet and helped Michael destroy the walls. "Raphael you know Yogi isnt going to be too happy about this" Kira walked over to Raphael and grabbed a cigarette from the pack. "Just let Katou talk to him since they are buddies. Katou might be able to get you off the hook" Sara suggested." "Sara just go look where Katou is. He isnt going to be doing anything except sleeping for a long time" Kira said, sounding annoyed "Why dont you go join setsuna in the shower or something." "Um, ok" Sara left the room and everyone let out a sigh of relief. "Why do we even put up with her?" Raphael asked. "Because of Setsuna. I swear that bastard needs to get a new girl. But he wont because he loves her too much. I pity that fool" Kira sighed again and grabbed a hammer. "I guess ill help destroy since there isnt anything else to do."

"Belial i do not want any whiskey!" Kurai screamed, trying to push Belial off of her. "Belial get off Kurai, shes just a kid" Shadow walked up and pulled the drunken Belial off of Kurai. "Shadow i am officially bored out of my fudruckin meind" Belial said. Shadow raised an eyebrow. "Oh god your drunk. You cant even talk straight! Get up and go to bed." Shadow pulled Belial to her feet and pushed her off toward the bedrooms.
