Three Years Ago:
Vaggie flew down an alley and cornered two sinners. The first one had puce skin, short and curly cream hair tied up in a ponytail, dark lips, eyes with red sclera and white irises, and small black horns atop her head. She wore a black top that exposes her midriff, dark gray jeans with a black belt, black fingerless gloves, and metal looking ballet shoes. The other one had white skin, blonde hair tied up in a ponytail, eyes with red sclera and white irises, and small black horns atop her head. She wore circular red glasses, a white lab coat, long black gloves, and similar ballet shoes. The two clung to each other, tears falling down their faces. Vaggie had killed thousands of demons in her multiple years as an exorcist, but for some reason... these two... she felt guilty. They didn't look like they were older than their mid twenties.
"Go." She said quietly, "Run."
The two looked surprised that she let them go, but took the chance and ran. Vaggie... wasn't so lucky.
"Disappointing."
Vaggie turned just in time for Lute, Adam's second in command, land behind her. Lute grabbed Vaggie's wrist and swung her sword, cutting Vaggie's eye out. Golden blood rushed out of the hole in Vaggie's head. Vaggie fell on the ground and screamed in pain. Lute used her foot and forced Vaggie's head down.
"Sinful filth like you has no place in heaven." Lute said, grabbing onto Vaggie's wings and ripping them off.
Vaggie could only feel the cold ground and the warm blood rushing from her body. Her vision was getting blurry and she could see the shadows of Lute and Adam walking away, snapping her halo as they left. Her world then went dark. Vaggie doesn't know when she woke up, but she knew the extermination was over and that demons would start to come out again soon. She used what little strength she had, to rip her uniform off and throw it out... hell was surprisingly cold when naked. She pulled a white minidress with loose straps, two light gray crosses on her chest, and light gray scalloped trim at the bottom off of a dead sinner, not that they'll be using it, their body will probably be used for sex or for food. She put it on and began to stumble until her legs gave out, just around the corner. She landed next to a dumpster, and her vision got blurry again. She was ready to let death take her, whether it be by an Overlord, a random sinner that took her spear and plunged it through her heart, or even by Lucifer himself. She felt someone flicking her in the head, which annoyed her, if she was going to die, she'd much rather they not play with her first. She opened her eye and looked up, seeing a tall and slender, light gray-skinned demon. She sports white ankle-length hair that has been formed in the shape of large horns with several black streaks. Her hands were massive compared to the rest of her body, and on her face was a darker colored mask like marking. She wore an attire similar to a ballerina, including an off-the-shoulder black dress with white buttons and white stripes located down the front and at the rim of the spiked skirt, which includes hot-pink lining. She also wore black waist-length stockings which are covered by white ballerina shoelaces, and her shoes are that of metallic ballet slippers. Behind her, was the two girls Vaggie let go. In their hands were several angelic weapons.
'Ah, so they collect them.' Vaggie thought.
"If you're going to kill me... just make it fast." Vaggie said, too tired to fight.
Vaggie closed her eye again and leaned her head against the dumpster. Vaggie was surprised when she felt herself being lifted up. She looked and saw the woman carrying her.
"W-w-where are you taking me?"
"Somewhere safe." She said, "You spared my daughters, I won't let you die as long as I am indebted to you."
Vaggie went silent... why? Why did she decide to that Vaggie was worth the trouble? Because she did something good?
"What's your name?" The Woman asked.
"V-V-Vaggie." Vaggie said.
"Carmilla Carmine." Carmilla said, "And the two that you spared are my daughters, Clara and Odette."
Present:
Odette and Clara returned to their mother's office building and went into the office. They knew this was going to be difficult to say, but she needed to know what they saw. They saw their mother looking out at the city, knowing that today's Overlord meeting was going to bring a lot of bad news, and she didn't know if she was ready for it.
"Mother." Odette said, getting Carmilla's attention.
"Girls, you're back." Carmilla said, "I take it the delivery was a success?"
"Yes, we delivered the weapons to Mr. Pentious at the Princess' hotel." Clara said, "But... we saw someone."
Carmilla was confused as to why her daughters were acting nervous around her.
"What is it?"
"We... we saw Vaggie." Odette said.
The room went quiet. Carmilla closed her eyes.
"Girls... please go wait outside." She said.
They listened and left the room. Carmilla sat at her desk and pulled out a picture frame. Inside was a picture of Odette, Clara, and Vaggie, with the words "My Daughters" engraved onto a nameplate on the frame. It had been a year since... since Vaggie left. No matter how angry Carmilla felt, her daughter leaving was the saddest her of her afterlife. She looked at the picture, the last time her family was whole, there was no arguing, there was no yelling, no fighting, everything was... amazing. Carmilla put the picture away and stood up... the Overlord's will be coming soon, she needed to look ready, and crying over the kid that didn't want to stay doesn't look good when going to have a meeting with some of hell's toughest demons.
