Depending on others… helping one another… believing in others… apparently we're all supposed to do that…

Dependence is a lie to avoid you own weakness. A false believe that you accomplished something, but being excused to handle your business. As if not relying on your own power is a bad thing.

And believing in one another has nothing to do with your own strength. In a fight, that bullshit doesn't apply. All that seems to do is boost the confidence of modest people.

It's just a personal view of the whole concept. I won't attack those who choose to do this. I'll simply turn myself and deny to ever take this path while I'm alive.

And that is my independent choice. So maybe… I'll make another one. The next time I talk to that guy on the phone, I'll refuse this 'alliance' he wants me to be a part of.

Demonic Power Struggle

"YOU TWO!" snapped Alley Gater, towards the demon sisters. Both of them turned their sights to the large black ghosts, and Kneesocks' eyes merely widened in shock and fear. "You're not my current target right now, I'm looking for that demon boy. But… both of you would make the perfect bait to lure him out…"

All of the human civilians around the scene screamed, and fled to a safer distance, yet still try to see what was going on. "Kneesocks, what is this ghost talking about?" asked Scanty.

"Sister, this ghost was the one that attacked me after we separated earlier." answered the younger sister, with a single sweat drop running down on one side of her face. Her words made the eldest sister's eyes widen.

"Why were you attacking my sister, you wretched ghost! You are to obey your superiors, demons like us! That is a mandatory rule!" demanded the irritated Scanty.

"I am. Executing the demon sisters, were orders from Corset." answered the alligator ghost, which made both of the sisters stunned to his response. "That's right! I was told to get rid of anything that would ruin his plan on opening the Hell's Gate in Oten City. And he 'specifically' mention you two in that category."

"Wha… what do you mean… specific?" mumbled the green-haired demon.

(No… this cannot be… why would Corset want us to be executed… unless…)

"I see. It makes sense. I'm stunned, but yet the least surprised…" muttered Kneesocks, making her elder sister direct her attention towards her.

"It was inevitable. Corset had always deemed us as unreliable tools… So this is his own way to dispose of us-"Kneesocks' abdomen area was immediately whipped by Alley Gater's tail. Which made her suddenly cough up blood and drop her entire body to the ground.

"Kneesocks!" yelled Scanty, drawing out her undergarments to turn into her dual revolvers, Double Gold Lacytanga, shooting rapidly at the black alligator. Which to no avail, did any kind of damage.

"Foolish demon-ness! Your pathetic demon weapons are too weak to do anything on ghosts." said Alley Gater, with an evil smile that exposed all of his teeth.

"S-sister…" spoke the fallen Kneesocks, trying her best to withstand the remaining stomach pain from the impact from the alligator's tail. "Our weapons can't harm ghosts... our spirit power was drained when Corset used our bodies to turn into weapons in Daten City… we're not strong enough to do any harm."

(Damn it! After all we've tried to do for Corset, with our best efforts, and he still treat us like trash… And now we're thrown away like such… Damn!)

Alley Gater used his tail again to whip Scanty's weapons out of her hands, making her scream in agony from her hands stinging in pain. The reptile ghost then whipped her left leg, as Scanty crashed down to the floor as a result.

"Bloody hell. My scaly tail made a cut on your leg." snarled Alley Gater, moving towards the Double Gold Lacytanga weapons on the ground. "I was thinking of making both of you usable, since you two have been a complete waste to Lord Corset. But…" He suddenly used his powerful tail to smash Scanty's weapons to bits. "Weak beings like you are worthless! Nothing but complete failures! Only good for eye candy for guys! No one would want you!"

The ghost's words left the green-haired demon in absolute shock. Alley Gater removed the paperbag that was still over her head, and noticed the scar that was on her face. It only caused him to laugh endlessly. "How embarrassing! You were trying to hide this?! You're even more pathetic than I thought! Definitely the worse out of you two sisters!"

Scanty could not bear the on-going insults from the alligator, as her eyes weld up with water, and massive tears ran down her face. Her teeth clinching to prevent her from making a wailing noise.

"Now you die here." Alley Gater opened his mouth and closing in on Scanty, making her close her eyes.

POW!

Alley Gater's lower jaw was kicked, closing his mouth completely shut. The force behind the kick made the ghost hurl away into a long distance.

Scanty opened her eyes to see who kicked him, when she recognized the figure, her eyes began to water once more.

"What the hell!? What dumbass had the nerve to kick me?!" the recovering ghost snapped as he got back up to look at the figure that struck him.

The by-standing civilians were in such shock to see the figure. The familiar clothes; skin tone, green-gold eyes, and even the single bang on his spiky-blue hair. "IT'S THAT DEMON GUY! BOXER BLAZER!"

"WOW! SO THE RUMORS ARE TRUE! THE GUARDIAN IS HIM!"

"SO THAT GUY IS THE DEMON OF OTEN CITY!?"

"HE MUST BE HERE TO SAVE THOSE DEMON GIRLS!"

"WHAT A HERO!"

"Huh? Hey, don't call me that!" retorted Boxer, towards the direction the last comment came from. "I'm just finishing some business with this damn crocodile guy!"

"Idiot…" growled Alley Gater. "That is the last time you call me a croc! Since you're here already, we'll have our rematch right now! Corset has given me the ability to regenerate myself for one time only, but I'm not going out like last time."

"Corset… so your one of his ghosts…" said Boxer.

Alley Gater swung his tail at him, but Boxer caught the tail without even budging at the least. "I have nothing to prove to a weak reptile like you…" the demon boy's words seem to enrage the ghost even more. "Besides, you're fight is over yet." Boxer tossed the alligator tail away and looked to Scanty's direction. "I was talking to you. You're not done fighting this ghost yet."

"Wait… What?"

END?

-Author's Note-

Scanty: What do you mean? I can't beat him… Corset drained-

Boxer: You said you and your sister are "High-Class Demon Commanders". So I'm betting you're stronger than that ghost. I'm not a hero, so I won't save you.

Kneesocks: How do you expect us to beat him?

Boxer: You'll use your own power. A new different power… And I will bring it out.

Next Time on STOP! We are Demons! Chapter 7 – Demonic Power Struggle Pt. 2

Stocking: So… that is demon boy… Brief's friend?

So it looks like this a turn of events. Boxer seems fully capable of defeating Alley Gater, yet he declines. What power is he referring to? New weapons maybe? And does this relate to Boxer's opening Dialogue. And what is this 'alliance'?

It's been a while since I've updated this story with a new chapter, but I had to plan out how the entire story will play out from this point to the end.
