Go to his office.

You both follow the old man out of the washroom. You see the patrons of the restaurant staring at you. Some of them were giving you guys dirty stares while others were just smirking and grinning. You decide to ignore them and just follow the old man into his office. The guy then goes around and sits behind his desk. He intensely stares at both of you for some time.

Looking at Cerina he takes a deep breath and says "I ought to break your bones and mend them back again without anesthesia for the shit you just pulled, demon. You come into my house and start a fucking war?! You know my house is neutral territory and yet you chose to fuck with my rules! I'm gonna overlook this infraction though, just this once, since you are still a new born in this world." He then looks at you. "Strange. A human and a demoness. Quite a rare sight. And judging by your body language you don't seem to be under any influence or ****-hood. The number of strong willed people grows ever smaller in this world."

You did not know what this old man was rambling about. Also you were still not sure how Cerina was involved in all of this. Everything was a mess to you.

"Umm... I don't mean to sound rude, old man, but what are you exactly? And how do you know Cerina's a demoness?"

"HA HA HA HA HA! I'm sorry about that. Let me introduce myself. My name is Papa Midnite and I am the proprietor of this restaurant and a witch doctor. I can see through any disguise because I have the sight."

"A witch doctor?" you say.

"Yes, a witch doctor. I heal all those who seek aid when they are wounded, no matter which plane they come from. In addition to that, I also provide a sanctuary and neutral ground for those angels and demons seeking to socialise with one another or their brethren."

"And what about the sight?"

"Some say it's a gift, other's a curse. I think it's a gift. To see the true nature of any disguise has certainly proved useful to me. Although I suspect most people would rather not have this gift. It's better to live in ignorance than to know the sinister truth. You, son, also have the sight."

"Umm...I don't.."

Midnite interrupts you and says "Look at the demon beside you. Tell me what do you see."

"I see a blonde woman in a green dress." you say.

"Try again. This time, really look at her. Don't just gloss over her."

You look back at Cerina. It was hard to keep your eyes focused at her for more than a second, but you will yourself to do it anyway. Almost immediately her face shimmers and in it's place you see the face of a demoness staring back at you.

"What do you see boy?"

You can't stop staring at her. Her face was so alien and yet so familiar. That scaled head and the short curled horns on her head, her beautiful face and her purple eyes. She was definitely a far cry from how she used to look when she was a full fledged demoness. At that time, she was all about pure dominance and had an extremely cold and regal look. You vividly remember her eyes having a whitish glow to them and and also those huge horns on her head. And now, even though there was the slight air of dominant vibes that you got from her, you had to admit, she looked much much tamer.

"I see a really cute demoness in a green dress." The words roll out of your mouth without you thinking about it.

Cerina is surprised by your answer. Her head bows a little as she looks at you shyly before quickly regaining her composure. What escapes your notice is the imperceptible smile that appears on her face before it disappears. She'd never been called cute before. Ordinarily she would badly punish her slaves for daring to call her cute. However she wasn't a full demon anymore. She fought hard with her feelings. Your words made her feel giddy; an emotion she had never encountered and she couldn't make heads or tails about it. She just resigns and puts on a steely face. She could deal with her emotions later.

"Careful boy. She's still a demoness. And a newborn at that."

You are embarrassed by what you just said. You just called her cute. All you wanted was for her to be out of your life and you threw a monkey wrench by calling her cute. You had no doubt she had the advantage at this point.

You brush aside your those thoughts and say "Okay.....I'm still confused about what happened back there though."

"Hmmm...I think this demoness can give a better answer to that question." Midnite says pointing towards Cerina.
