John woke up a few hours later, his stomach growling. John looked around, still bound to the chair. He sighed, looking at the door.
"H-Hello? Anyway I can get something to eat?" John asked. The blond girl, Rose if his memory remembered correctly, walked in.
"You need food?" Rose asked. John nodded slowly. "What is it you angels eat?"
"Pretty much anything." John replied. She nodded and walked out of the room. John bit his lip nervously, looking around again. He noticed the red headed female demon slept on the ground next to a bigger demon, a male with long black hair and broken sunglasses. John gulped a bit and saw Rose walk back into the room with a plate with a burger on it as well as a glass of apple juice. She put them on his lap and untied his arms.
"Eat. Dave is gonna be back soon I hope." Rose commented before walking towards the door. She looked at John for a quickly second. You may walk around. Just don't leave understood?" John nodded and stood up stretching before sitting back down and eating his burger. Soon, Dave walked in and looked right at John, walking over to him.
"They've sent angels to save you." Dave stated. John's eyes widened and he felt excited. "No way they're gone get you back that easily." John gulped and looked down. Dave put a finger under John's finger and tipped his chin up. "Don't worry, angel. I won't hurt them to bad. But no one is gonna take you away from us. Not without a fight." Dave smirked. John gulped again. Dave lowered his shades and looked deep into John's eyes. John slowly nodded and looked down.
"Hey! Equius! Nepeta! We gotta go. Got angels to fight." Dave said, looking at the two sleeping demons. The girl, Nepeta, woke up and rubbed her eyes cutely. Equius, the male, sat up quickly and stood up.
"Angels?" Nepeta asked, looking up at Dave.
"This guy's rescue party." Dave said, petting John's head. Equius walked over to John and tied his hands behind his back again.
"Then we can't risk him getting out can we?" Equius said as he tied the knot tight, causing John to wince in pain. Dave cackled and cupped John's chin in his hand again.
"Sorry, angel. But he's right. Wouldn't really be fair if ya catch my drift." Dave winked at John, who looked away. "Don't be like that, John." Dave made John look at him again, and looked deep in his eyes. "Don't worry, I'll be back." John glared a bit and looked away again.
"Let's go, Dave!" Nepeta said, waving her arms around.
"Coming." Dave replied, tipping John's chin up one last time before walking out with them.
"Thummoner how much farther?" Pollux asked the older angel.
"Not much farther, Pollux." Summoner replied. And he looked ahead and saw three demons, one of which was Dave Strider. "And looks like we've got our welcoming party." Summoner stated, flying towards them. Dave pulled his sword out and flies towards him. Summoner pulled out his spear and blocked the attack. "It's been a while, Dave."
"Same to you, Summoner." Dave smirked.
"You wouldn't happen to know where our angel John Egbert is, do you?" Summoner asked, pushing Dave back towards the ground. Dave landed and prepared himself for another attack,blocking the spear which came down on him.
"Yeah. He's safe with us, in a place you'll never find him." Dave smirked at the irritated angel. "You're not gonna get him back." Dave replied, pushing the angel away from him.
"We'll thee about that!" Pollux replied, flying down at Dave.
"No, Pollux. Don't." Summoner replied, causing Pollux to freeze.
"But he'th rubbing it in our face!"Pollux replied, causing Dave to smirk.
"I caught him fair and square. He lost in a fight and I, being a merciful demon, took him captive instead of sending him back for your nurses and doctors to stitch back together." Dave's smirk grew as he saw the agitation on Pollux's face grow. "He's my prize won fairly. Do you really wanna take him away?" Dave asked with a snarl.
"Thhut up, demon!" Pollux yelled, bringing his lance out and charged Dave, surprising the demon. Dave stood to the side and got hit on his side, he gasped in pain and kicked Pollux away. "Darn it, you demon!"
"That's enough, Pollux!" Summoner yelled. Pollux looked at Summoner and turned to glare at Dave. Nepeta and Equius soon arrived at Dave's side. Dave held his wounded side as he glared at Pollux. Equius put his hand on Dave's shoulder as Nepeta prepared her claws.
"That does it." Nepeta growled at the angel and attacked Pollux. Pollux gasped as the smaller demon jumped at him. She landed on top of him and scratched at his face with her claws. He gasped and kicked her off.
"You hear that?" Summoner heard a few humans waking up from their battle.
"Pollux, Dolorosa, retreat! We can't let any human see us!" Summoner yelled, flying towards the sky. Dolorosa followed quickly and Pollux gave Dave one last glare in Dave and Nepeta's direction before following them. Nepeta stuck her tongue out before running to Dave and Equius.
"Is he okay?" Nepeta asked.
"We need to get him back, to stop the bleeding." Equius stated, picking Dave up and carrying him back to the hide out.
John sat there, bored stiff until he heard the front door open and heard Nepeta's voice.
"Rose! Rose! Dave's hurt!" Nepeta yelled. John heard the sound of feet running about before walking towards the room he was in. John gasped a bit when he saw Equius and Rose help Dave into the room, blood flowing down one side. Nepeta looked and John and glared a bit before walking back into the other room. Rose had Dave sit down against the wall and took his shirt off, gasping at the wound. John stared at Dave's wound, dumbfounded.
"I'm fine, Rose. Gonna take more than this to kill me." Dave said smugly before wincing as Rose started to clean up the wound.
"Yes yes, Dave. I'm certain you are, which is why you're wincing as I clean it." Rose said, taking some bandages and starting to wrap the wound. Dave looked at John and saw John looking at him with a pained expression.
"Wh-Who did that?" John asked him.
"Some angel named Pollux." Dave replied. John gasped.
"They sent Pollux to get me? He hasn't ever liked me…" John said.
"Summoner was there too. We'd still be there if it hadn't been for some humans waking up."
"Good thing too. If you had stayed this wound would have bled out." Rose stated. Dave rolled his eyes as she stood up and left with the other demons, leaving Dave alone with John. Dave looked at John and smirked.
"Told ya, I wouldn't let them take you back without a fight." Dave stated.
"B-But why? Why would you go through all this trouble for an angel like me?" John asked. Dave slowly stood up and walked over to him, tipping his chin up again.
"Dunno. I guess I've taken a liking to you." Dave said, brushing John's cheek with his thumb. John gasped a bit and looked up at Dave. "It's been known to happen. Demons can find a human or angel they take a liking to and claim them. No other demon, or anything for that matter, is allowed to touch that human or angel." Dave kneels before John, looking him in the eyes. "You're mine, Egbert. I won you fair and square. No one else can touch you." Dave let his shades fall a bit and John lost his breathe at the determination in Dave's eyes. "No one."
