Jehovah's Egg had been sitting there for as long as the three Hell
Angels remembered. The female one walked up to its pulsing surface and let
her pale hand rest on it, the veins throbbing underneath her.
"Is it time yet, Belial?" the orange-haired Hell Angel, Belial, turned to look at the red-haired figure floating next to her.
"No, Beelzebub, he's still recovering." the Hell Angel called Beelzebub twirled one of his peach fingers through his longish hair and sighed dramatically.
"And what about the seal?" Both Beelzebub and Belial turned to a dark- skinned Hell Angel with long white haired and grimaced.
"It's still sealed, Mannon," said Belial.
"How dull!" exclaimed Beelzebub as he threw a light kick to the egg, which shuddered, "What is the Boss making us wait for, anyway?"
"Hell's Lord has to be fully recovered," said Mannon, his blue eyes shining, "And we must wait for the Key."
"And where is the Key now?" asked Belial as she moved in close to Mannon.
"I believe the Key is headed towards Mosperiburg as we speak," explained Mannon as he closed his eyes, "And I want you to meet her there."
"As you wish," Belial bowed her head.
************************ "Why is this crummy old ship taking so long?!" exclaimed Fuse as he paced back and forth between the aisles.
"Kyu." Fuse turned to the blue puffball floating beside him and shook his head.
"I know, Cotton, but Virgil gives me the creeps," grumbled Fuse.
"You can understand him?" asked Naomi as she looked at Cotton. Cotton purred and gave the monster's equivalent of a peace sign and Fuse nodded.
"What is he, anyway? Some kind of a stuffed animal?" asked Naomi as she picked up Cotton and examined him. Cotton growled before sending a dose of Bolt Breath coursing up the surprised human.
************************* Cotton chirped happily as a charred Naomi trudged up the steps to Virgil's Palace. Fuse ruffled the small monster on the head as he followed. Nusakan was silent as he followed behind, pushing his glasses up.
"Maybe you should get a new set of glasses," said Rouge as he watched the doctor. Nusakan turned to Rouge with a shocked look on his face, like he had never considered it before.
************************* "As Virgil, I must have a Dante. and I am pleased to have found one," a glowing orb sat in the Ring Lord's hands, images of a handsome man practicing Time Magic manifesting in it.
"Yes, my Time Lord. continue to refine your magic, make my castle eternal," Virgil caressed the orb lovingly, almost letting his delicate cheekbone rest against it. His eyes widened as he heard a group of people walk into his palace. The orb disappeared as he saw a blue-haired woman lead the odd group in.
"Ah, the Philosopher of Disease, the Master Magician, the Blue Abnormality, the Crazy Fuse, and. the Key," Virgil's eyes narrowed cruelly as Naomi stood bold against him, "What do you want?" Fuse opened his mouth to answer, but he stopped, pondering.
"What exactly did we come here for?" he asked, turning to Naomi.
"Tell me, Ring Lord, who am I?" demanded Naomi, her eyes ablaze with passion.
"Who are you?" Virgil's smirk widened with amusement, "That is a rather hard question to answer."
"Don't give me that, I want answers!" exclaimed Naomi, "You have to know, you're the Ring Lord. you know about everything!" Virgil's eyes scanned the odd crowd, piercing their souls with his unwavering gaze.
"Just who do you think you are?" laughed Virgil, "Do you think you can beat me? Don't waste my time, little girl, go find someone else to annoy." Naomi clenched her fists and prepared to rush at the Mystic Lord, but Nusakan held her back in his firm grip.
"Doctor." Naomi trailed off as she started to calm down.
"Hey buddy!" Fuse stepped in front of Naomi and Nusakan, his fists clenched, "The lady asked you a question!"
"And who are you to stick up for the human?" asked Virgil, his fingers drumming on the throne's armrest.
"I'm called the Crazy Fuse, girly man!" hissed Fuse.
"Oh yes. you're the one who killed my pet Suzaku and stole from my garden," mused Virgil, "That was quite annoying."
"Why you.!" Fuse pulled out his gun, but he stopped as Silence tapped him on the shoulder.
"Shut up, you arrogant cosplaying jerk!" Fuse elbowed Silence out of the way and prepared to hit Virgil with Bound Shot, but he was stopped as he felt a sickening wave of nausea sweep over him. He looked down and saw the light of an Energy Chain emanating around him.
"Damn you, Purple." grumbled Fuse as he collapsed, the palsy effect working its magic on him.
"Sorry, Fuse," said Rouge as he let his hands fall to his sides. The group looked up as they heard Virgil applauding them.
"Entertaining..." the Ring Lord trailed off as he took in every detail: Fuse breathing raggedly as he tried to hold himself up, Rouge dissolving his magic energy, Silence dusting himself off, Cotton attempting to stay awake, and Nusakan trying to calm down poor Naomi.
"Dr. Nusakan, you know who I am, right?" asked Naomi, her eyes glittering with hope, "So then, you can tell me, right?" Nusakan turned away from the human, pushing his glasses up.
"That won't be necessary, Philosopher," said Virgil, a sly smile appearing once again on his handsome face, "I know of someone who can tell you far better than any of you could."
"You couldn't possibly mean him, could you?" asked Rouge, his eyes widening, "You mean. he's still alive?"
"Who?" asked Naomi as she nudged herself away from Nusakan.
"The Toki no Kimi," said Rouge, "The Time Lord."
"Is it time yet, Belial?" the orange-haired Hell Angel, Belial, turned to look at the red-haired figure floating next to her.
"No, Beelzebub, he's still recovering." the Hell Angel called Beelzebub twirled one of his peach fingers through his longish hair and sighed dramatically.
