Alastor's Home, Pride Ring

Charlie rushed into the living room and immediately opened the first aid kit. She reached in to get some gauze when she heard Baxter groan. She looked back over and saw his eyes open. She leaned over and asked him, "My gosh Baxter, what happened to you? Are you okay?" Baxter grimaced and gave her a small smile, "Yeah. I'm okay, beautiful. I'm just glad you found me." Alastor looked at Baxter with skepticism and asked, "How did you get in such a state?" Baxter flinched at the static undertone and said, "Lord Leviathan did this to me. He wants the throne of Hell and he found out I had a close relationship with you. He ordered me to spy on you but I refused and this was the result." Baxter stopped talking and had a faraway look in his eye. Alastor eyed him hard and inquired, "Really, this is what that eel did? I'm genuinely shocked he didn't do more." Baxter shook his head and continued, "It was awful, he beat me and kept me chained up for days. I can't go back there. He will find me and kill me." He started to become frantic and hyperventilate. He looked at Charlie with wild eyes and yelled, "YOU HAVE TO HIDE ME, PLEASE! DON'T LET HIM FIND ME!"

Charlie put a calming hand on Baxter's chest and said, "There's no need to worry Baxter. I won't let Leviathan get you. Have no fear, you are safe with me. I will help you in any way I can. Now lay down, I have to start stitching up these major cuts so the healing spell will work properly." Baxter gently laid down and held Charlie's hand. He smiled softly and said, "Thank you gorgeous." Charlie blushed at that statement as she started the stitches. Baxter looked into her eyes and said, "Your kindness and beauty will never cease to amaze me." After he said that he closed his eyes and laid still. Charlie smiled and continued to apply his stitches. Alastor frowned at this stranger's display of affection. He looked at Charlie and said, "I'm going up to bed my belle. I will wait for you." Charlie smiled and gently held Alastor's hand before she resumed her work.

As Alastor ascended the stairs he conversed with his own shadow. He looked at it and said, "Yes, something is definitely wrong with that young man. I don't think everything is as it seems. I want you to form a connection with his shadow. I want to own it within ten minutes. Is that clear?" Alastor's shadow let out a whispered reply and disappeared. Alastor could have put his other shadows on the job but his shadow always loved to corrupt new shadows. He shook his head at those thoughts and sent some of his other shadows into Pentagram City proper. Now that he had the power of a deadly sin, even his weaker shadows could hold their own against overlords. He would just watch through his shadows for now but he would consume more souls and shadows if he deemed the situation appropriate. For now, he would simply watch through their eyes until his shadow reported back to him. He laid down, closed his eyes, and waited.

He saw a few demons attempt to sexually assault others, this was grounds for intervention. His shadows grew into copies of him and spoke in his menacing voice. They all said, "You might be in Hell but, I AM THE BIGGEST MONSTER HERE! As soon as they stopped talking his shadows surrounded his victims. They encased them in total darkness and chanted "Nightmare Teller" (Credit to Gowther (the sin of lust) and Netflix since they own the rights to the Seven Deadly Sins anime.) The shadows tormented the various souls until their screams stopped. After they died, the shadows would absorb their souls and bodies. Once they absorbed them, the shadows disappeared and searched for more victims. Soon his shadow appeared in the room and reported its successful mission. Alastor grinned and said, "Have Jack monitor everything, I want to know every move he makes. Is that understood? His shadow's smirk grew wider and hissed in confirmation before it dived back into Alastor. He closed his eyes again and went back to his task.

A few hours later Charlie made her way up the stairs and Alastor opened his eyes. He sat up and smiled at his demon belle. He looked at her tired face and asked, "Is everything alright my love?" She grinned and said, "Yeah, his stitches took a while and those healing spells really took it out of me. We should probably go to bed." Alastor grinned at her good nature. She would always keep that but she would have to harden her heart a little if she wanted to rule over the other sins. He leaned over and kissed her forehead. He whispered, "Sleep well, my queen." She grinned and said, "Thank you my buck. We will have some fun…" She then let her fingers drift below his waist and kissed his neck. She then continued," At a later date." She giggled at his primitive reaction and turned over before she closed her eyes. Alastor chuckled at her antics and let a few shadows continue to search for victims, he recalled the rest and dived into the sea of dreams.

Old Scratch Motel, Wrath Ring

Striker gathered his belongings and left the motel with his two souls in hand. As they walked Striker decided he should try to figure out their strengths and weaknesses. He looked over at Wilkinson, the male, and asked, "What are you good at?" Wilkinson looked at Striker with confusion before he said, "I assume you mean my specialty and skills. If so, that would be close-quarters combat. I am an expert in most martial arts and small blades." Striker grinned and said, "I'll be the judge of that." He then turned to the woman and asked, "What about you, sweet cheeks?" The woman turned to Striker with a glare and said, "My name is Madeleine, not Sweet Cheeks. I'm best at seductive assassinations. I'll fuck them if it will lower their guard but, typically it never gets that far. Why do you want to know? Do I have to fuck you?" Striker smirked and said, "Sorry, not my type. I was asking because you're both going to help me kill someone. I have a reputation to uphold. They groaned at this imps arrogance and followed their master.

Review: I ask that all reviews be constructive criticism with suggestions on how to improve my story and writing overall. If you have nothing constructive or nice to say please do not leave a review at all. Don't like the story, don't read it. I know that many people loved the characters and story created by Vivienne "VivziePop" Medrano exactly as they were but I wanted to put my own little twist on it. I plan to post a new chapter about once a week. Best wishes all and hope you enjoy :)
