Awoke with a coffee coaster stuck to face.

The world before him was strange, a place of pitch-black darkness…

“Fuck me! Not this place again.” Random once again found himself in pitch-blackness of the nightmare. It seemed foolish but Random felt much safer if he found the red serpent, which brought warmth to this place. “Hey!?” He shouted as his eyes searched for just slither of light. “Crimson!” His voice carried his worry as he didn’t receive a reply. The boy ran through the plains of his dreams crying out. “Crimson! Where the fuck are you!?” He yelled like a child who feared the dark crying for his mother.

Falling to his knees, his entire surroundings were nothing but black, he felt like he was going insane. But a burst of light erupted from nowhere, giving the boy’s a moment of relief. “Crimson… thank goodness…”

His moment of joy quickly vanished the second he heard a feminine voice, which didn’t belong to his demon. “Why? Why do you call that creature’s name?” A second burst of blue light fills the world. The pulse sending the boy’s hairs on end. Random froze as the blue serpent approached him, nearing the boy, pain from his stomach flared and the young man collapsed to the ground clutching his abdomen. “Why do you call that creature’s name?!” The snake repeated the question followed by a threating hiss.

“Just leave me alone!” His answer as he curled up into a ball. Random just waited for the inevitable he couldn’t make sense of the dreams or the visions he was having why start now? The young man soon broke from his defeat after catching the sight of the body of another serpent. A red serpent.

His eyes followed the lifeless thing from its tail to the human body that sprung from its head. “Wait, what?!” The body was not as it appeared; the ‘corpse’ of the red serpent was only its shedded skin and out from it lay Crimson’s naked figure just as she appeared the first time she awoke in Random’s bed. “Crimson!”

The moment of seeing his demon in this nightmare was short-lived as his body was slammed to the ground and greeted with glowing blue eyes. “Why do you call that creature’s name?! Tell me?!” The blue serpent had shedded her own skin, revealing the beautiful human body of the strange women that attack him, days back. Both shocked and confused he remained speechless as the naked beautiful hovered over the boy, her pale body inches from his own. “It vexes me.” The strange women added. “Why would a human call for a demon with such longing?”

“Me want Crimson what the fuck is she talking about?” The boy’s vision quickly begun to fade the longer he looked into the blue candlelike glow of the women's eyes.

“Wait, I’m not done!” Random shot up, his head leaving the table it had been resting upon and he nervously searched his surroundings.

“Ah! He's finally awake.” The rough voice of a familiar Irishmen greeted the boy. “Thought the lad would never git up.” Random groaned as he peeled a 'Morningstar' coffee coaster from his cheek.

“He's such a moron.” Not just Alister but Crimson as well. “I swear if I didn’t drag him inside he’d fall asleep on the street.” His head was fuzzy, but the memories came back to him as he stumbled towards the creature. Tyler didn’t say much after she got home safely by cab and left some cash inside the bag along with the uniform from the pair’s first deal.

The young man bumped into a few tables and chairs before he reached the girl without interruption he wrapped his arms around her and brought her into a hug. “HEY!? Hands off! You reek!” A suitable response he smiled.

“Shut it just let me hug you.” The girl’s cheeks flushed as he pressed his face against her neck and couldn’t resist giving the girl’s hair a smell.

“You’re fucking freaking me out!” Crimson yelled before clenching her fist and slamming it into the boy’s chest. With little effort, the boy was flung back and skid across the café’s floor.

“Whoa, de wee lass got one hell of a punch!” Alister stated as he watched the ‘siblings’ squabbled while cleaning.

“Ugh, no kidding.” Random fell back down as he attempted to get back up, he felt like he got kicked by a horse. But that’s when it hit him. “Wait! Why didn’t you push him off!?

The demon clutched the neck of the glass of her milkshake as she looked away from the boy when he came to the realisation. “What are you going on about?”

“Don’t give me that shit! Tell me why you didn’t push that bastard off you!?” His thoughts left his mind and from his mouth.

His raised voice didn’t get a reaction. Crimson took a sip of her milkshake and said plainly. “You wouldn’t have gotten your ‘evidence’ if I did.”

Random heart sank like a stone as the image of Max and Crimson came to mind along with thousands of questions. “You knew… how?”

“How couldn’t? You never shut up!” She began mocking him. “'I have to end that bastard!’ ‘How can I do the right thing and keep my humanity?”’ The demon repeated his words in a deep voice. “I bet you thought you sounded cool when saying that crap.”

The young man exhausted dropped himself down onto the stool next to the ‘Snake’. “I have got little to no ego left.” He sighed and rubbed the sleep from his eyes. “Let me guess the mind talking thingy doesn’t have signal limit rage?”

“Wow ‘mind talking thingy’ I should start using that from now on and yeah pretty much I heard your entire conversation with that girl.”

“Give me a break I’m exhausted. But why did you let that bastard do that to you?”

“I wanted a big fat cock.” She joked. “I let that ‘bastard’ do that to me because you made a deal with that girl and deals are important to us demons.” She spoke the words as if it was unholy scripture.

“Crimson never do anything like that again.” The boy said bluntly looking at anything but the demon he couldn’t face her after what he’d put her through.

Crimson never missed a chance to make fun of him. “D’aww his jealous.”

“I’m serious…” His words were swiftly cut off by the demon locking lips with the human, his eyes widen and slowly close slightly as he enjoyed her lips, he didn’t question it.

She pulled away as quickly as she brought the random kiss. “Quit overreacting Little Mouse it was just sex but thanks for worrying about me.” She added.

Alister looked dumbfounded at the couple. “Not judging lad but keep ya prick wet with someone who isn’t your sister.”

The girl laughed. “That reminds me do you have a plan or was the whole point getting laid?”
