"And how horrid it would be of me to keep you waiting too long," said Derma with a light laugh.

Alec nodded his head lightly, it was best to be careful when listening to rumors.

Abaddon grinned as he looked Derma directly in the eyes, then the grin faded as he heard a knock on his bedroom door."Crap, that's problably 'Phelia.."

"Some rumors 're true though, even if they are a bit exxaturated." The taxi driver grinned back at Alec."I've seen you b'fore, too.Your Lucy's new friend, eh?"

"How timely over her," said Derma sarcastically.

"Um, yes I suppose I am," Alec said lightly.

Abaddon stood, putting Derma on his bed and walking over to his door, flaunting his chest proudly as he opened the door, pushing his hair off of his shoulders so it would fall behind him and looking down at his sister.

"How cute..Ya look 'is type.Me 'nd 'im go back, 'e went to the same school I did when we were just little demons.I think we were both 'round nine.." The driver smiled as if his mind just had a burst of nostalgia."I 'aven't talked to that naughty incubus 'n ages.."

(hmm am I to play Ophelia? lol)

Derma rolled onto his side to watch somewhat amused.

"How fun," said Alec with a light smile.

(You invented her!D: )

A little demon girl, looking no elder than 13 in the eyes of a human, came out from under Abaddon's bed and giggled, running off somewhere.

Abaddon let his little sister through and sighed."Pandora.PLEASE stop hiding under my bed, Your going to give me a heart attack one of these days, or I'll be doing something in bed that you won't exactly want to see with Derma.."

The little girl stuck her forked tongue out at Abaddon, smoothing out her cute frilly dress and opening the big box she held in her hands, pulling out of the black abyss a mirror and a brush, fixing her short, bobcut hair until it waas absolutely perfect."Whatever..I thought for once those stupid long ears of yours would pick up my movement or something, Abbie.."

"I should sometime, I pretty much know where he hangs out..'Opefully I don't mistake 'is twin for 'im for the millionth time.I always see Nero out and 'bout, 'nd I stop 'im to see if it really was Lucy, and I always get a no, I really wish they 'ould develop ONE thing I can tell them apart with when I only see their backs.." The driver laughed."Alright, 'e're 'lmost there."

(lol so true...never actually intended to do much with her)

Ophelia watched Pandora skitter out from under the bed. "No kidding, no one wants to see that," she teased and made a somewhat disgusted look with her face. "You two just up and left without me too! Thought you could get away with it didn't you?" She pointed her finger at Abaddon then sent a glare towards Derma when he stuck his tongue out at her.

Alec laughed lightly. He supposed Nero and Lucy would be hard to distinguish from the back.

"Well you were busy and we were done.It's not like you couldn't have had one of your little fanboys drive you home and carry your bags." Abaddon said, putting his hands on his hips as he glared down at his succubus sister.

"'Ere we 're." The driver smiled, parking in front of Lucy's house."3790 'l."

Bridget smiled and payed the taxi driver, waving goodbye to him as he got out, gently pulling the shopping bags out as Sasha got out of the other side.

(The 'l is his accent for hl, which is yet another reference to Makai Senki Disgaea, in which the money is called hl, or hell.)

"That's not the point," said Ophelia.

"Oiy just leave already you're impending upon our time," said Derma with a light laugh.

Alec slipped out of the taxi after Sasha.

"Just go and play dress-up with your new things or something, 'Phelia.Leave me the hell alone, your not my friggin babysitter anymore, I don't need to be with you constantly when we go to the mall and such." Abaddon said, stepping back into his room and slamming the door, and locking it tightly.

Sasha waved godbye to the driver as well as he walked up to the sidewalk in front of Lucy and Nero's house.You could see that the demons were home, as you could clearly see Caelistis playing with one of the flower demon children through the open window.

Ohpelia stood there a moment staring at the door before with a huff storming off to do something else.

Derma laughed lightly. "I don't think she likes to be told that," he said lightly.

Alec shifted slightly as he stood on the sidewalk, he didn't know if he was ready to go back in; but he supposed it would be bad to put it off.

"I don't really much care.She can go get herself in the hospital for I care.Throw herself in fornt of a bus, all I'll do is send her a card that says 'Congratulations!You screwed up!' " Abaddon laughed.

Bridget giggled and walked up to the door with Sasha."C'mon Alec, lets go inside!We HAVE to see how cute you look in the new things we got you!"

"ooo harsh," said Derma with a light laugh.

With a light nod Alec followed the two flower demons up to the door.

"Comes with being a demon." Abaddon grinned, sitting beside Derma again.

Sasha opened the door and walked in, waving to Nero, who was in the kitchen making something with Lucy, as he walked over and hugged one of his little brothers.

"Most demons anyway," said Derma rolling to look up at the ceiling.

Alec entered the house after Sasha, and after a moment he realized he felt strangely at home there, even if he didn't want to admit it.

"Hah.Everyone but those twins you used to live by, and that boar demon mailman I see in this part of Hell alot.This area of hell is strange in general, filled with CARING demons, and fallen angels.." Abaddon laughed.

Lucy, pulling out a tray of cookies from the oven, wearing a frilly pink apron embroidered with 'Kiss the Demon' on the front, smiled out of the kitchen and waved to Alec with one oven mitt-covered hand, then taking the mitt off and blowing the little angel a kiss, and winking playfully.

"Strange indeed," said Derma with a light laugh.

Alec brought his hand up in a meek little wave, but soon pulled it down and with a light flush and a most indignant expression turned away from Lucy and walked off, to where exactly he wasn't sure but anywhere was better than standing in the living room where Lucy could see him.

"Oh well..Demons ARE unpredictable." Abaddon laughed. "So I guess anything can happen.."

Sasha giggled, taking Alec's hand and dragging him into Lucy's room."C'mon, lets see you in your new things.Gawd your going to be so cute!" He giggled, opening one of the shopping bags.

"Very true," said Derma, "makes it more fun anyways."

"Umm...'kay," said Alec as he got dragged into Lucy's room by Sasha.

"So, where was I.." Abaddon grinned, kissing up Derma's neck.'Ah, I remember, I was about to have a little fun with you.."

Sasha pulled out one of the sweet little simple dresses he had gotten for Alec and smiled."C'mon.Let's see you in your new day clothes!I'll find your slippers, too." He said, setting the dress down and going through the bags until he found Alec's slippers.

"Was that where you were?" asked Derma teasingly.

"Alright," said Alec lightly as he watched Sasha pull out one of the dresses and then set it down.

"I was about to, before I was interrupted by Ophelia." Abaddon said, sticking out his tongue playfully at Derma.

Sasha also found one of Alec's anklets, along with a pack of soft underwear he had sneakily bought for Alec."Those are for you, since I'm sure you don't exactly want to show some things to Lucy yet, if you just happen to slip and fall." Sasha giggled."Trust me, the twins are pervs, it's very embarrasing.." He said, blushing as he remembered when he was 'more than a friend' to Lucy.

"Mmhmm," said Derma with a laugh, "she's good at that."

"Oh..um..okay...thanks," said Alec with a light embarrassed sort of laugh.

"Yes, she is..VERY good at ruining things, when I'm just about to enjoy myself." Abaddon laughed.

"I have a very good eye for size, so they should fit nicely." Sasha smiled."Go on and change..I won't look." He giggled, turning away.

"Well at least she's gone, for now," said Derma with a light smirk.

"Okay," said Alec lightly, waiting for Sasha to turn away before he got changed into his new clothing.
