Jacoby was out in the city walking with his hands in his pockets then he felt someone watching him. He smirked and then said,"Hey Balrog."

Balrog drove up next to Jacoby and he knelt down to look in her window and say,"I knew you could be creepy but I only thought it was to Rose."

"You're up to something you little weasel. I don't know what but I know you are.",Balrog said, glaring daggers at Jacoby.

Jacoby smirked,"Well you're right, I am up to something. Something amazing and if you want, I can let you in on it."

"What?",Balrog questioned.

"I can let you in on it. I mean, out of all the sins you and I are the ones everyone thinks the least of. Me because they think Envy isn't that strong while you it's because you're usually three seconds from burning down everything in sight."Jacoby explained, somewhat jokingly but with an air of errireness.

Balrog actually began thinking about what Jacoby said but she told him to get back before she drove away. Jacoby had a confident smirk on his face before he began walking again, a lime green aura radiating from him.

At the mall, Devon, Rose and Holly were in a women's clothing store with Devon sitting outside the changing room on his phone. Holly came out of the changing room and said,"Bro, Rose wants you."

"She does? I can't go in there,"Devon said.

Holly pulled him to his feet,"This is your girlfriend and I must know if my work is good. Now get in there!" while pushing him into Rose's changing room. Devon looked at Rose to see her now wearing a tight pink shirt and black shorts.

Rose had a dissatisfied look on her face and she said,"I don't understand teenage girls."

"Well, uh. Yeah I got nothing on this one, my parents will definitely not like this, though I like it quite a bit.",Devon said. Rose glared at him then she turned to the mirror and said,"I look stupid and I don't want to look stupid, I'm a warrior and warriors are supposed to be intimidating."

"You remember that you can bench press a truck right?"Devon said. Rose scowled at Devon and he said,"Okay, okay. Let me help."

Devon then picked out a violet and black short sleeved button-up with a matching bikini top and he handed it to Rose. Rose began undressing and Devon was going to leave but Rose said,"Stay, please. I can't have your sister in here."

Devon nodded but he turned around while Rose changed her top. He then turned around to see Rose now wearing the top he picked and he said,"That's better."

Rose smiled a bit then she said,"Devon, I'm scared. For once I'm actually scared."

Devon sighed then he hugged Rose, and she hugged him while sniffling and tearing up. Devon kissed Rose on the forehead lovingly, stroking her hair and letting her cry into his chest.

"You've gotten softer since we met.",Devon said softly.

"I know, it's weird.",Rose said through her tears.

"It's not weird, Rose. It's good."

"How?"

"It's good because it means you're becoming a more well rounded human. Which is also good 'cause it means you're better than your team, actually working to be more than your own desire.",Devon explained in a caring voice. Rose giggled then she wiped away her tears while saying,"I like sticking it to them."

"I know you do, heck I've begun to enjoy sticking it to them. Mainly Balrog."Devon said. Rose chuckled then she and Devon looked into each other's eyes, kissing one another lovingly. The two pulled away from each other when they heard some screaming coming from outside. Holly entered the changing room saying,"Guys, big goat thing attacking the mall. Go do your thing please and quit making out."

Rose and Devon ran towards the store, not caring about the alarms that went off when Rose exited the store. The two stopped when they saw a large goat humanoid that had a muscular build and four coiled horns on top of its head.

"Okay, that's a creepy one.",Devon remarked.

"Creepy is an understatement.",Rose said. The two then transformed and charged at the demon.

Drow took off her scarf and it turned into her scythe. She then slashed the goat demon twice before blocking a punch that made her stumble backwards. Drow then had to move back while also blocking several attacks with her scythe.

Devon put his hand to his brace while saying,"Henshin." and pressing the jewel on it, causing him great pain. He was then covered in orange flames before the flames disappeared and he was Crusiad but the white portions of his armor now had fiery orange cracks in them and the left eye of his visor was fiery orange.

Crusiad charged into the battle, punching the demon in the side then spin kicking it away from Drow. Drow was helped up by Crusiad, with her noticing his armor and saying,"What the?"

"What?",Crusiad asked.

"Nothing, let's focus on the demon.",Drow said, opting to tell Crusiad after the fight. She then tried to change form but nothing happened. Drow tried again and nothing happened once more, causing her to look at her body.

Crusiad pulled Drow close, helping her to evade being tackled by the goat demon. He then socked the goat demon across the face before landing five powerful punches to the demon's body, making it call out in pain from each one. Crusiad then jumped up and kicked the goat demon so hard, it flew backwards and crashed through a wall. The goat demon bellowed then ran away from the scene, having landed in the middle of the mall parking lot.

Crusiad huffed in frustration then he saw his reflection in a window display, causing him to do a double take. He touched his helmet then looked at his hands and body before looking back at his reflection and saying,"Angel, what's going on with my armor?"

"I believe this has to do with the other entity. It may be causing this abnormality in your powers.",The angel said in Crusiad's mind. Crusiad sighed then he turned to Drow to see that she was staring at her hands. He walked up to her and said in a caring tone,"Rose, what's wrong?"

"I can't use my other forms.",Drow said in a shocked tone.

"What?"

"I can't use my other forms."

"Are you sure?"

"Yes, Dev, I'm sure. I can't change into my Force or Lightning form and I can't even feel their powers.",Drow reverted into Rose and revealed her frightened face. Crusiad reverted into Devon and he moved closer to Rose, who immediately hugged him to calm down. Rose then looked at her own reflection to see her other self staring at her with a devious smile on her face.

That night, Rose was on the back porch sitting on the steps and looking up at the night sky. She sighed then hung her head low and said,"What did you do to me?"

The other Rose sat next to Rose and said,"I've done nothing to us. Your own stubborn need to not embrace your new powers has done something." in a smug tone.

Rose gained an angered expression.

"You know what I am talking about. Let me take the wheel so everything can go back to normal."

Rose turned her head to her other self and growled,"I'd rather go back to Hell than let you take over me. I'm not going to even try to use those black flames and that's final."

The other Rose chuckled, then she turned her head to Rose, a smug and devious smirk on her face,"If you honestly think you can win without the black flame or me? You're sorely mistaken."

The two Roses stared at one other until Devon came out to the porch and sat next to the real Rose. He stayed silent for a moment then said,"Was that your other self?"

"Yeah; she's a real bitch.",Rose said in a frustrated tone, resting her head on Devon's shoulder.

Devon chuckled lightly,"You know you technically called yourself that right?"

"Still true.",Rose said while blushing from embarrassment.

Devon nodded, then he and Rose held hands and looked at the night sky as Devon said,"We'll get through this, Rose. I know we will."

Rose adjusted herself,"I hope you're right."
