A Simple Card Game

"Oh, just a simple card game." Beelzebub responded nonchalantly, sitting down at the table while keeping her tail in the portal.

"Nothing with you is ever "simple", Bug." Lucy spat. "Nonetheless, I'll prove to you that I don't have a gambling problem. So, I ask again: What game are we playing?"

In response, Beelzebub merely waved her hand as a stack of chips landed in front of both her and Lucy, smiling smugly as she placed a few into the center of the table.

Lucy scowled as she did the same. "I'll shuffle..."

"And I do believe that's a Royal Flush." Beelzebub said with a smile as she laid down her cards; an ace, king, queen, jack, and ten of diamonds in a red color.

Lucy snarled as she watched The Great Fly reach out and pull the pot towards her, digging her nails into the table as she looked down at her own Four of A Kind. How had she lost so badly?!

Grabbing the cards from her opponent, Lucy placed them back in the deck with her own, shuffling them once more as she slammed the deck down on the table.

"One. More. Game!"

Beelzebub smirked as she gave off a chuckle. "Lucy, you're broke." She said, pointing to Lucy's chipless side of the table. "You have nothing to bet with."

"Oh, is that right?" Lucy challenged, a smug smile of her own coming to her face. "Then how about a little wager?"

That was exactly what Beelzebub wanted to hear.

"I'm listening..." Beelzebub said with a smile as she placed her chin on her hands.

"Loser of this hand is teleported into the middle of town." Lucy explained, "There, they must find their way back here to Taker's home without their powers. You - I mean she will will be rendered a psudeo-mortal; unable to be hurt by conventional methods, but will be just as powerless as a normal human. We won't even have our horns or tails."

"That's it?" Beelzebub asked, raising an eyebrow slightly. "I honestly thought that you of all people could come up with a worse punishment than that!"

"Oh, but you didn't let me finish." Lucy countered with an evil grin. "The loser has to do all of that... Butt. Ass. Naked."

"Now that's the Lucy I know!" Beelzebub said as Lucy handed out the cards again. The Great Fly smiled as she knew that Lucy pretty much destroyed any arguments of her "non-existant gambling problem", and she loved it! "What the heck? I'm in."

"Well, get ready." Lucy replied with a cackle as Beelzebub waved her hand and evened out the chips again. "Because you're about to be out!"
