I read a comment about how the previous chapter pretty much rip-off the first episode of Devilman: Crybaby and he was right. I totally wanted to imated the first episode, mostly because I thought it was a good take of how a modern Sabbath would look like. Let's be honest people, they are party that go waaaaaaaaaaaaaay to far with a lot of things, drugs, sex, murder and rape are horrible common on those kind of parties. And they are other that are….just disgusting.
At the very least I didn't try to write an Eclipse from Berserk, that will be too fuck up and incredible hard to write.
Chapter 8: Papillion heart
When the Kirijo group received the information about Kashida Naoki nature they immediately had all their researchers looking information about demonic creatures. Her hard drive was loaded with information about demons of different cultures and their summoning rituals. In Celtic cultures, the witches gather to form black magic rituals and invoke demons, those rituals are known as Black Sabbath.
Today, she was recording the results of a successful ritual before her synthetic eyes. And they were absolutely horrible.
She couldn't find the words to describe even when she knew all the words. Dozens upon dozens of hellish creatures emerged and started to eat, kill and….even rape all the people they could grab. Her protocols mandate that she had to prevent human lives but, for some reason, she wasn't able to engage into combat. Her body didn't respond to her commands, Aigis was immobilized by unknown reasons.
"AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!" Her thoughts dissipate away when Kashida Naoki slashed the demons in front of her. On his hand was beam blade. "What are you doing?! FIGHT!" She recovered from her state and engage.
She tried to find what will be the protocol but the situation itself was beyond abnormal. Per se, there was no protocol. It was just attacking without a plan. Only to survive.
The bullets came one after another. She had a capacity of 128 bullets, no reloads. Each one should not be waste.
*BBBRRRR* *BRRRR*
Her bullets rain all over the spawns, the silver pierce their flesh. It seems that her last modification was useful after all. Some of them fell down, others not. One seem to notice her presence and dash into her.
It speed was too much for her, thankfully she was able to react in time. She jumped to its neck, the monster was six meters tall but it wasn't impossible for her to do. Aigis grabbed its neck with her legs and extended her left arm, it was time to prove another of her new weapons: a 4 inch silver sword.
The blade emerged from her wrist rapidly, with the same speed, she stab the demon's throat with it. Blood spilled all over it, in a couple of seconds it was disappearing into ashes. She started for a couple of seconds, she didn't expect that. Perhaps it was natural for demons?
"Watch out-ho!" The creature known as Jack Frost casted an ice spell behind her. When she turned back, she saw a winged demon completely frozen. "Be careful, sis! These guys will eat you alive when you get distrac-OGH!" A demarcated wolf creature attacked the tiny snow man and took him away from her.
Above her, were five flying demons who were looking at her with lecherous eyes. They were small, they look like a cartoonish version of a demon. A big bald head, big eyes, a lecherous smile. But what disturbed her the most was that in their crouch were a massive red horn.
At least it what she wanted to believe it was because the other option wasn't pleasant. Regardless of their intentions, she wouldn't let them do anything. She equipped on her right arm her new flame thrower, it was too powerful. Accordingly to Ikutusuki, it was a miniature version of an industrial flame thrower, so its power was too high.
"What are you doing?" One of them asked, completely unharmed by her flames.
"Did you really think those shitty flames could harm us?"
It seems that fire doesn't harm them, she should inform-
*Klank*
Something grabbed her flame thrower and rip her weapon from her arm, it was a blob full of arms. Aigis decided to use the holy water inside her body against the demon, she spray its content on it.
But the demon didn't seem to be hurt.
It didn't make sense. It was holy water, fathers use it on exorcisms!
"Oh, you like to wet people, aren't you?" The flying demons grabbed her arms and pin her down. "Let's see how much do you moist." They started to torn her uniform away, it was annoying. Their strength was greater than she think. "WHAT?!"
"Where is her ass?!"
"She doesn't have a pussy! What the fuck?!"
"W-what should we do now? I'm not used into this kind of stuff…"
"Well…she has a mouth, right?"
"Oh yeah! Good call!"
"Me-" Before he could finish, a big hand grabbed his big horn.
And rip it off.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" The demon grabbed his crotch with despair, blood was coming out uncontrollable. "MY DICK!"
Aigis took the chance and free from her captors, she summoned her sword and swing them to their throats. It was a perfect cut, their blood fluid easily and painted the floor. Once recovered, she saw Kashida Naoki holding a demon's horn on his hand.
"Agi." A tiny explosion happen behind her back, she immediately turn back and saw that the blop that destroy her flame thrower was dying. "Oi, why aren't you using your persona?"
"Personas are incapable of summoning outside the dark hour. You should know that."
"Have you even tried?"
"It is futile."
"Great, my plan fucking fail."
"Excuse me?"
"My lord!" From the sky, Cu cullain came down with the corpse of a monster that resemble a griffon. On his arm, was the snow creature known as Jack Frost. "I rescue Jack Frost."
"Thank you. Pixie?"
"In my belly." They all saw a massive demon approaching them, it had morbid obesity. His torso had a vertical mouth with sharp teeth. And it smell like fat and burn oiled. "You must be the infamous Demi-fiend. I came looking for covolt and find gold. How lucky!" Aigis find the distorted sound of his voice repulsive.
"Did you eat Pixie?"
"I catch her off guard while fighting. I swallow her whole in one bite! Can you believe it?!"
"Is that so?" He looked very calm to hear that his partner was eaten. "That's bad."
"Don't worry, you will soon join her."
"He didn't mean that-ho" It was Jack Frost who talked this time. "Of all the things you could do, you shouldn't have eat Pixie-chan-ho. Specially when you didn't kill her-Ho."
"Eh? Wha-youmidnei-?!" Suddenly its body started to inflate horrible. "WHAT' !" The demon exploded into pieces, the four of them were bath by his blood and guts.
"ARRGHHH! This is toooo gross!" The fairy herself was floating, completely soaked by the demon insides. "That fucking fatso! I hope that your soul is being eaten by the demons of the abyss!" She was surprised how such a small creature was able to say such things.
Well, she was a demon afterall.
"Calm down, Pixie."
"Pixie kick!" The minigirl kick the demi-fiend eye. He grabbed the fairy with his hand.
"The fuck are you doing?" He said trying to hold on as much rage as he can.
"That's my line! I was fighting all these losers by my own! I was eat by that fatso but you didn't do anything! You were always looking at that damn blondie! When those damn incubus pin her down, you immediately came to her rescue-!
"Hush." Naoki casted a spell on the fairy that made her gone completely silence. Not quiet, silent. Her mouth was moving but nothing came out from it. "Are you ok?"
"My flame thrower was removed but all my systems are on point."
"Do you need healing for that?" He pointed at her arm that was sparking because of the broken weapon.
"I do not believe that it can be heal."
"Forgive me, but I think there are more important matter to discuss." The hound of Culland pointed with his spear towards the reaming demons.
Because of the fight, Aigis forgot about the other people who assisted the party. They were experiencing what hell must be like. All those people, they were screaming and crying. The demons were doing any horrible thinkable act…and even those who she never known were possible.
They were yelling for help, and those….those…demons were laughing! Why she is surprised? They are demons, evil made form.
"HELLLLLPPPPPPP!" A girl scream while two Taurus beast were….
"Don't even think about it." Kashida grabbed her shoulder. "You can't save anyone in here. They were dead the moment they get inside."
"How can you say something like that?" As an anti-shadow suppresser weapon, she wasn't familiar with human emotions but at this moment if she could describe in human emotions what she was feeling it will be what people call 'rage'.
"Even if we kill all the demons, those humans who survive will be curse or so insane that they will end up killing themselves. Focus on surviving and kill as many as you can. Jack frost!"
"Tajuraka coming up-HO!" Jack Frost raised his hand and the boy before her had an increase of his energy.
Letting go to the fairy, he proceed to jump as high as he could. Naoki fell hard to the ground with a stomp, it was impressive that his strength cracked the floor like an earthquake.
"We better don't fall back! Come, Jack Frost!"
"Right behind you-Ho!" They both ran toward their master, ready to assist him in battle. That leave the two girls behind. Aigis looked at the pixie, she looked tired and completely annoyed.
"…..t-there, my voice is back. Who he thinks he is?! I will curse him when we get home!" She scream, or rather, make a tantrum like a little girl. "Blondie."
"Are you referring to me?"
"Are there other blondes around here?" She shrugged. "Listen, is not that I don't like you but I'm not going to babysit you the whole night. You need to take care of yourself. Otherwise, you going to end like those idiots." After finishing her line, she fly away.
Aigis didn't know what to do now. What good would she do here? She was a tool with not purpose.
"Is this what it means to be 'helpless'?" Most of her weapons didn't work against them, they surpass him in numbers and strength. Her Persona, her greatest asset was unavailable, what could she do?
"Please, help me!" A woman run towards her, she clinged into her like a save boat. "I DON'T WANNA DIE!" Behind her came a horde of demons. For the first time, she reacted and start attacking them.
She didn't count her shoots, she just wanted to get rid of them. After who know how many rounds, they all fell down dead.
"Are you fine?"
"NO! PLEASE, GET ME OUT OF HERE!" She was crying horrible and she truly couldn't blame her. All this situation was too much. Even for her.
"Then not leave my side at any cost." Aigis didn't push her away, she was a stranger but an innocent human being. She didn't deserve to die in here. No one does.
"T-Th-AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"
"What is wrong?!"
"My head it hurts!" She was grabbing her head. "Make it stop! Please!" The robot girl didn't know what to do to assist her. She started to analyze her and find an anomaly inside her. Some kind of object was moving inside-
*CRUSH*
Her head was open in two and from it emerged a giant centipede like creature. It was crimson and it had a jaw and eyes.
A murderous intent took over her body. With her sword she attacked the centipede without hesitation
*Clank*
Silver, accordingly to the research, is a material that is considerate holy in nature. That's why is often associated to objects that repel evil spirits.
So why?
Why did it break when it hit the bug?
Her questions were pull away when a giant hand grabbed. The owner of say hand was a giant elephant creature. Aigis used her free hand to shot the demon.
ALERT: CRITICAL DAMAGE.
Suddenly, her body was full of gunshots. How? When did he get hurt?
"I love when people falls for that trick." The creature chuckled, she tried to move but the damage was too severe. "What a lovely doll. Never seen something like you before. Who made you?"
"Magma Axis!" A blast of fire came to kill him. But the fire didn't hurt him, instead it came inside his body.
"Stop bothering." Mist came out from his trunk, she wasn't able to see nothing but she could hear how Kashida Naoki and his demons were cursing. "Much better. They won't be bothering us for a while." The elephant demon hold her closely. "Mmmmm, whoever made you must be a real artist. Haven't seen a doll so well made in years."

Her body was broken and useless, the demon was playing with her like a ragdoll. Why no one was helping her? Was because of this mist?
*SLURP*
That monster lick her body.
"You….YOU TASTE GREAT!" His eyeball increase in size and open its horrible mouth.
She tried to active her weapons but she couldn't use them, her operative system were down. It was a technical marvel that she was conscious.
Was this how she was going to be dispose? All the anti-shadows weapons before her were already dispose of. She didn't know their fates but the Kirijo group was very strict with their secret projects, so in fear that some of their technology being stolen they disintegrated the bodies of the previous androids they made.
That fate could have been hers if it wasn't for her Persona. And even so, she wouldn't have a goal when the Dark hour is eliminated. She will either be locked away inside a facility far away from civilization or share the same fate as her sisters.
Being eaten by a demon….at the very least she will have a different fate that her sisters.
But you will still be gone.
The world around her stopped, she was no longer captured by that demon and she was gone from the domain. But…she wasn't able to move, not to see her body.
That foolish boy…I expected more from him.
He throw you into the wolf with no knowledge. If he did to anger then he is still a child.
Although, you are not an adult yourself.
So is time to you to grow.
To be free.
But first.
You need to born.
Something was growing inside of her. From the bottom of herself. A cocoon was hatching and the creature was being born. All the parts of her body were being touched from the inside at the same time. For the first time in her life she was experience physical sensations:
First it was pain. Her body was boiling, like if someone put her inside an oven. It was maddening! This was what humans feel all the time?! HOW WERE THEY ABLE TO LIVE WITH IT?! HOW CAN SHE MAKE IT STOP?!
She come back to the party and she was still being hold by those giant hands. But he wasn't trying to do anything to her. He was staring at her, in complete silence. Aigis retried to move her limbs and for her surprise they were functional. With all her strength, she open the hand and free from it.
The creature yelled and it feel….amazing. She enjoyed to hear his agony, to see his blood coming out from the wound.
The android look at the demon and the demon looked at the android. Something inside her was growing and waiting to come out.
So she roared.
And everything went white.
Something that he didn't like to admit is that he wasn't as smart as he think he is. A problem of his is that when he was facing an overwhelming situation, he wasn't the best of tacticians. It didn't mean that he was bad, if not then he wouldn't have been able to survive the vortex world. But often, most of his plans were based on pure instinct and quick thinking.
The old man give the robot a Magatama of some kind. But hasn't hatched yet, it was in a larva state. So his best idea to make it hatch was to expose her to a place where magatsuhi flow constantly. And he was inviting to a Sabbath that night.
His mistake? Was to think that Aigis was somehow ready to experience it. He let her have her way but whenever she was about to kick the bucket, he decided to intervene. The last thing that he needed was too have her destroy and his deal with Kirijo and those velvet people was done.
He never seen the Mammoth that grabbed the girl. Like Girimehkala, the elephant had a passive ability that reflected all physical attacks, so when she was pierced by her own bullets that was he knew that he fuck up.
And he fuck up again when the monster absorb his fire and casted Fog Breath, making them incapable of hitting him.
He was about to summon demons to help her but something happen.
He felt a Magatama hatching.
Her Magatama.
At the core of that fog, he saw a light. That light started to shape into two giant butterfly wings. Suddenly the light expanded too quickly, dissipating the fog and pushing anyone away.
The blast hurt him. Very badly! How?! Light magic wasn't supposed to work like this! It one shot you or not!
When he open his eyes, he was on the other corner of the building.
"Are you ok, Nao?!" Pixie was on the top of him, her hair look like a mess. Like she spend too much time with her hair dry. "Your tattoos are red!"
"Shit…" Was that blast that powerful? He didn't even feel any kind of pain. "Wait, where's the robot?" Naoki looked around and find the girl on the ground. "FUCK!" Naoki dashed to her, he hold the robot girl in his arms. She was unconscious but all the damage her body received was gone.
He inspected her body, she didn't have any kind of tattoos or modification on her body. She looked like always.
"I must admit that I'm honestly disappointed of you." Naoki turned his head back and saw a man wearing a white tuxedo. "Someone like you should be more diligent with his companions."
"Old man." The creature was the king of hell, Lucifer Morningstar. "This thing was you're doing?"
"I only help her to awaken her power early. Something that you wanted to do a cost of her wellbeing."
"It work-!" Suddenly his was on his knees puking blood. Pixie disappeared, being forced to be cast away.
"Don't be cocky, child! You're a thousand year early!" He didn't expect him to get anger. Why he reacted like this? "Your task is to help her, tonight you did the opposite. Thankfully I intervene before her demise. We need her in order to defeat Nix."
"That's why you destroy the domain?"
"No."
"What?! Don't tell me tha-"
"While her awakening was powerful, it wasn't enough to break the domain. This spell was ended by its maker."
"And the demons?"
"Those who didn't die by the blast flee away." Dammit! Now he has to hunt them down! "You're a fool, Kashida Naoki. You straight walk into a trap."
"This isn't my first Sabbath, old man."
"I know but this wasn't your regular Sabbath either. This was made by a purpose."
"The cult of Gaia?"
"No. Someone else, the one who wants to bring Nix into this world. Philemon's declared enemy."
"Who?"
"I can't tell you. That's something you need to figure for yourself." He absolutely hated those stupid lines. "Go home and take care of Aigis. You both are going to need each other on the next full moon." And just by that, Lucifer disappeared. Leaving the two teen alone on a devasted area.
He wanted to yell all the possible insults that the human tongue was able to do but he swallow that rage inside. Carrying the girl on his arms, he walked away into the night.
