Summary/disclaimer: Time for another chapter of Demon and the Monster. Enjoy the 1200-word chapter. I do not own any rights to Fairy Tale, Hiro Mashima, Kodansha and a few others that I may write about.

Chente slammed Mirajane to the ground which threw the girl to the side. Chente brushed off his hands and blinked at her.

The boy was only slightly taller than Mirajane, but it didn't matter to her. She still wore a dark cloak which hid her more demonic features.

Chente's wild black hair clashed with Mirajane's snow white hair which flowed out from under her cloak. Unlike Mirajane who wore more gothic black clothing? Chente wore a white vest like jacket and a pair of stretching green pants with several rips from use in the legs and a pair of black shoes.

"You done yet?" Chente questioned the girl as she picked herself up from the ground and looked at her.

Then Mirajane rushed him and wrapped her charred and purple pimpled arms around Chente. Chente could only blink as the 13-year-old girl lifted him up and suplexed him to the ground.

Most people would be screeching in pain and agony. Chente picked himself up from the ground, resting a hand on his ribs.

"What, too much for you?" Mirajane questioned as Chente cracked his back.

He gave the girl a toothy smile and rushed her. Mirajane blinked as she locked hands with Chente. He headbutted the girl and kicked her down.

"Nope, that was pretty damn good, Janey!" Chente said before rubbing at his bruised arm. "Damn, you hit pretty hard!" Chente added as Mirajane flipped to her feet.

The duo circled each other before rushing each other once again. Mirajane landed a punch that made blood and spittle fly from Chente's mouth. He elbowed her in the ribs and tossed her to the ground.

"Why do they fight so much if their friends?" Lisanna asked her brother as Mirajane tackled Chente to the ground.

"This is playing for them." Elfman stated shyly. The two siblings left the duo to fight as they knew their fighting would continue.

There was a cry of pain as Mirajane tried to punch Chente only for her clawed fingers to rip into his ribs. He staggered backwards with crimson coming from his ribs.

This caused Mirajane to back off as Chente held a hand to his side. A trio of gash shaped marks were left near the bottom of his ribs.

Chente sat on the ground and hissed in pain. Mirajane blinked and walked over towards him. Chente managed to look his friend in the eye.

"Ok, I give." Chente said as Mirajane walked over to him. "That was a good move, I didn't know how sharp those claws you got are." Chente said and smiled weakly.

"These claws are a curse." Mirajane stated and stared at her claws in anger.

She cursed herself for thinking she could control her powers when she let loose.

"Why?" Chente questioned as he blinked and looked up at her. "Their cool, just like you are." Chente said and grabbed her arm.

Mirajane tried to pull him back before Chente blinked and slid the cloak away from her arm. It exposed her demonic looking hands and caused Mirajane to frown.

"Your just like me." Chente said before focusing a bit of magic to his hand.

Mirajane watched in shock as white and green scales spread over his arms and claws sprouted from the edge of his fingernails. Chente's eyes glowed a more inhuman green and his ears became more pointed. Mirajane watched scaly white and green

"You look like a monster as well?" Mirajane asked to which Chente hummed and shook.

"Different, not a monster." Chente said and pulled her arm closer. "You're not a monster, your just different like me. And to me? That's pretty cool." Chente said while looking over the various blistered and ashy black skin.

Mirajane blinked with shock at this as she looked at Chente. She blinked as Chente allowed her to look at his scaly arm.

"So, want to keep fighting?" Chente said as Mirajane blinked.

"Wha?" Mirajane stated to which Chente patted her head gently.

"Well, if you can hit like that?" Chente questioned and smiled a toothy grin. "Then I totally want to keep brawling with you… It's fun! You know how often I get to fight someone who can kick my ass that good?!" Chente questioned before he hummed.

"Your pretty damn weird for a guy who just challenged me to a fight." Mirajane stated which, caused Chente chuckle with amusement and hummed.

"And your pretty cool for a goth girl with magic." Chente stated and clicked his tongue against the roof of his mouth. "C'mon, let's keep fighting, it was just becoming fun." Chente said and removed his hand from his wound.

Mirajane sighed and smiled as she clenched her fists and faced off with Chente once more.

Chente smiled and spread his wings as he looked at Mirajane who could only clench her fists as she looked onward.

(Present times)

"C'mon, it's pouring out!" Mirajane stated to which Chente could only roll his eyes as he turned to the side.

The hulking man could only continue to trod forward. He knew very well that there was little to which Mirajane wouldn't get annoyed at… Still? It made him far too bemused to care at the moment. His friend never seemed to change much from how she usually was… Which led to no end of amusement from Chente as he tried to wrap his head around the idea.

He continued to follow after Mirajane whom was sighing as she looked up at the sky above. Chente merely hummed and looked at the rain which fell upon them.

"Are you seriously scared of some rain?" Chente questioned while he watched droplets fall upon him. "You used to like the rain." Chente stated as he blinked.

Mirajane who was busy looking up turned to look at her. Chente smiled as drop upon drop of rain continued to fall. Chente only tilted his head which caused him to smile.

Mirajane hummed as Chente continued to look up at the rain and smiled. This caused Mirajane to roll her eyes and smile before removing her hands from atop her head.

"Your such a giant doofus." Mirajane stated as she tilted her head up to look up at the rain.

Mirajane watched Chente smile. Mirajane watched him chuckle as he spread his arms to catch the droplets in the palms of his hands.

"Yeah, but you liked that about me back then…" Chente said as he smiled with amusement. "And you like that about me now." Chente stated which caused him to hum.

Chente hummed and grinned once more as he and Mirajane greeted the rain.
