Disclaimer: None of the characters are mine, except for Kappal who is all my creation!
AUTHOR'S NOTE: I'm sorry for the lack of plot in this chapter, but I had to put up the Christmas tree and didn't have time to write (hence the Christmas shopping! I'm in a festive mood!).
Thanks to lucy, Kazforlupin and Chronicler of Light for reviewing! I'm really stuck for storylines now, so I'm open to any suggestions!
Read and enjoy!
Chapter 5
Bartleby and Loki sat for many hours, trying to decide what to do. Should they trust a demon? Even one with supposedly good intentions?
As they talked, Loki came out with more and more reasons to believe Kappal. If Bartleby hadn't been so worried about what she had said, he would have remembered to be jealous.
In the end, they decided to sleep on it and both went to their bedrooms to lie awake all night thinking.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A few days later, when the seriousness of Kappal's words had faded, Bartleby and Loki left the apartment and went out for a day of Christmas shopping. Loki spent the whole morning running around department stores like a kid in a candy factory while Bartleby pretended he didn't know him. It was only when Loki got into a fight with a seven year old girl, who could probably win, did he intervene.
"Ah, B, it could've beaten her any day!" Loki whined as he was dragged out of the shop.
"Yeah, of course you could!"
"I could have too!"
"I believe you (!)"
And on it went, until they both turned down a very dark, narrow street and they realised they were lost.
"What are we gonna do now?"
"I don't know, but I'm open to suggestions!"
All of a sudden, they heard sniggering above them. As they both slowly looked up, two lower level demons grabbed them from behind, while two appeared in front of them, with menacing looks on their faces.
AUTHOR'S NOTE: Don't forget to R&R, even if you thought it was rubbish! Tell me and I might change it (I'm not promising anything though!).
