Francis let the girl's body drop like a sack of potatoes. Alfred watched the little blue orb rise from the girl's body, held in suspension by the same strings that had been holding the man's. Alfred stared at it and he couldn't stop his feet from moving in that direction.

Francis seemed to notice them for the first time, he tensed and snarled at Alfred, his tail swishing back and forth, his claws glistening wickedly in the moonlight. It was strangely…beautiful. The thought left Alfred's head as quickly as it had appeared, his focus was on the blue orb. He was stopped a few yards away by Francis.

"That soul is mine, la Grande Faucheuse. You cannot take it away from me."

Alfred stopped and looked at Francis unimpressed, for some reason he wasn't intimidated at all…actually he didn't really feel anything, even that friendly bond they managed to form during the Revolution. All he saw in front of him was an obstacle to getting to the orb. Alfred tensed, ready to get to that soul.

Francis let his eyes wander over the dark creature in front of him, he couldn't tell anything about the Grim Reaper, (that was the English name right?) the cloak hid his figure, Francis was actually assuming it was a he, something in his mind was telling him he knew this person but he could not remember when or how. The person's face was covered by a mask and his cloak flowed around him, giving a sinister feel. He hadn't even heard the figure speak and his mind was telling him that he knew this person! The only hint of life was the figure's movement and he was pretty sure that he saw a flash of bright blue in the black depths of the skeleton's eye sockets.

Francis's eyes darted behind the Reaper, doing a double take as he saw a fellow demon staring at Francis with the same look of adoration that any of his victims wore at some point. He could use that, the fox demon looked like a companion to the Reaper, he had no clue why, but if he could use this new found power over the Reaper long enough to consume the soul then it didn't really matter, he might even follow them to find out why he had these feeling of familiarity. First though, was making the fox demon's adoration grow, a talent he had mastered.

"Beautiful fox demon, what is your name?" Francis smiled as the demon shivered and unconsciously stepped towards him.

"K-Kiku."

"Ah! A wonderful name for a wonderful creature! Come here, amour."

The fox demon started towards him, eyes glazed and body moving robotically. Francis focused his allure on Kiku, letting his guard down.

/

Alfred barely registered in his mind that Kiku was being seduced by Francis. He really couldn't concentrate on that, it was unimportant as long as-Francis was so focused on Kiku his guard was down. Alfred could see him leaning to the right a little to reach Kiku faster, making him unbalanced, Alfred took the opportunity. He bolted forward and it felt like he flew towards the soul. He pushed Francis off, grabbing his scythe from underneath his cloak. He swung it, cutting the strings and slowly brought the blue orb to his mouth and swallowed it. He felt warmth from it spread through him and let out a huge sigh.

Then was viciously clawed at. Just like Francis he had let his guard down and now he was paying for it. Francis was growling, yes growling, at him. His eyes went from there light blue to silver.

'It's just like what happened to Kiku. What happened to Kiku?'

He barely had the thought when he saw a flash of silver and barely ducked in time to avoid getting his head chopped off. Kiku was standing between Francis and Alfred, his stance protective.

"Stay away from my Francis!"

Feeling like a bucket of cold water had been poured on him Alfred remembered what happened when he was trying to get that soul. Poor Kiku, Alfred was supposed to be a hero! That didn't mean leaving your friend-

Swish

He could think about this later, right now he needs to turn Kiku and Francis back from the dark side…did that mean there was probably a silver orb around here like with Kiku? But with Kiku it seemed as if that was where he was staying, so he could keep it safe. Francis couldn't live in this garden, he was 1) France, the fanciest country out there and 2) he wouldn't be able to feed (suck out people's souls) in one place for very long, someone would notice. So would he keep it on him?

…Alfred really didn't want to get that close, even if Kiku wasn't acting like a jealous lover. Francis would totally take advantage of it and Alfred didn't want to end up like Kiku. But if it was on him where would it be, he couldn't exactly sit there and feel Francis up…the scary thing is Francis probably wouldn't mind. So that leaves us with the question of what does Francis always carry on him? Not his clothes, he avoids wearing clothes that are "no longer fashionable." His hair…there was no way he was hiding a silver orb in his hair. What could he be carrying around that would hold an orb of light?

Alfred dodged another attack from Kiku and spared a glance at Francis who looked smug and completely human, his claws, horns and tail were gone. Instead he was twirling a rose in his hand…a rose! Francis always seemed to carry roses with him!

Alfred dodged another of Kiku's attacks so that it would bring his closer to Francis, subtly of course. Using dodges as excuses to get closer Alfred ended up behind Francis, to both Kiku and Francis's displeasure. Alfred grabbed Francis's wrist with one hand and spun him around, then pulled him forward to keep him unbalanced, and plucked the rose from Francis's grip. As Alfred expected Francis's eyes flashed silver and he used his growing momentum to push Alfred on the ground and straddle him. Alfred didn't see any traces of the Francis, or any sane creature really, in those silver eyes.

Francis clawed at Alfred's face, Alfred was suddenly glad that he had a mask on…until Francis tore it off, of course. Francis and Alfred were so busy dealing with each other that neither of them noticed Kiku, who was staring at them blankly like he had just woken up from a dream before he blushed remembering what he had done.

Alfred couldn't do anything but keep the rose away from Francis which wasn't good, what could he do? He needed to check this flower for the orb. Alfred saw Kiku creeping behind Francis. Alfred panicked before Kiku motioned that he was alright now. Alfred realized that Kiku would easily grab the flower. He caught Kiku's eye and flicked them towards the flower he was waving aroun the best he could with Francis on top of him. Kiku nodded he understood and started creeping forward. When Kiku was almost touching it Francis stopped as if he sensed something behind him. Alfred panicked when Francis started turning to look behind him. Alfred realized the only thing he could do to distract Francis, freeing his other hand quickly from Francis's tail he grabbed Francis's chin and kissed him.

Yep, kissed him. Alfred would later claim it was really the only thing that could distract an incubus. And distract him it did.

Francis froze from the contact at first but then he started kissing back, his teeth started biting Alfred's lips and his hands were suddenly pinned above his head as the incubus expertly tied his hands together-tied!? When would he have been able to find anything to tie his hands together!?

Where the hell was Kiku!?

Alfred managed to free his lips from Francis's only for the incubuses lip to start traveling down his jaw. Taking the chance Alfred looked over to see what had stopped Kiku-

-to find him sitting with a tissue plugged in his nose and sketching on a sketchpad with a pencil. That had magically appeared, WHY THE HELL WERE THINGS MAGICALLY APPEARING FOR EVERYONE BUT HIM!? He had tried to grab his scythe, when that didn't work he tried to imagine it in his hand, which only led Francis to believe he was starting to fall for his charms, which led to wandering hands and lips, starting to take off his clothes.

"KIKU! GET OFF YOUR ASS AND HELP ME!"

Kiku held up a finger and kept drawing.

Oh he was sooo going down for this later.

Alfred stopped thinking as his pants started sliding off. He wanted to punch Francis in the face, but again his arms were stuck, what in the world could have been strong enough to hold down him!? Francis started kissing Alfred again but this time his hand wandered over to the rose Alfred held. Alfred realized Kiku's minute wasn't going to be over soon enough so he decided to take action…he was so going to kill them both for this and never speak of it again.

"F-Francis, please…your lips would look wonderful with rose petals. Please! I-I want you so much!" Alfred was horrified that he really was imagining Francis kissing him with rose petals on his lips. He was a professional actor but even actors knew when feeling were getting real and when they weren't. Francis's face split into a perverted grin, he brought the rose up between their faces with a flourish.

"I always knew you had dirty thoughts to, Amerique!" Francis froze as his mind tried to process what he had just said.

Alfred caught a flash of light from the flower and felt his heart swell with hope. Taking another golden oppurtunity he lifted his legs as much as he could with his jeans trapping his ankles together, he didn't even know Francis had gotten that far, and pitched Francis forward, tipping the rose in Alfred's direction and the silver orb started falling. Francis was leaning forward to catch it, and Alfred was going to try and swallow it-causing their foreheads to bump into each other. Alfred gasped and started to choke as the orb fell into his mouth but was stopped by Francis's finger. The incubus was viciously moving his finger in Alfred's mouth to try and bring the orb out. He was too late though as Alfred swallowed the orb just as Francis shoved his finger in. The silver in the incubus's eyes changed back to blue when Alfred felt ice shoot through him after swallowing the orb.

Alfred shivered at the sensation, causing Francis to look down at him and start moving his finger round curiously.

"I would apologize Alfred but I must say I plan on enjoying this extremely rare moment for as long as I can!"

With that Francis took his finger out and started feeling Alfred's practically naked body, pushing down Alfred's underwear, and distracted Alfred by kissing him again. Alfred could feel him start wanting more touches and couldn't stop a moan from coming out of his mouth-

-suddenly the weight of the incubus was gone. Alfred gasped as he felt cold air wash over him and shivered in the night air. Looking over he saw Kiku and Francis staring at each other.

"D-Dudes do you know how cold it is down here? C-Could you help me up. P-please?"

The two demons seemed to snap out of it at that and started to help him up. Alfred tried to see what Francis had used to hold his arms captive but the other nation had quickly hidden it, much to Alfred's disappointment.

"C-can't I see what was holding my arms d-down?"

"Non, we must get moving, I am sure that the father of that girl will be here any second-

"JULIA!"

"-now."

Alfred nodded as he hurriedly got dressed and ignored the way the other two were staring at him. He glared when Francis opened his mouth. They both seemed to freeze then laugh nervously.

Alfred sighed and reached into his cloak for the scythe that had disappeared after Kiku had knocked it out of his hands. He took it out and made a swish in the air, picturing the lake he had first woken up by.

It was time to sort things out.
