Raguel's house

"Alex, what the hell are you doing here?" Crocell asked, calming down. Alex stood terrified 'bad idea, bad idea, think of something quick!!' he took a deep breath then smiled sweetly "well I was just passing by when I felt the wave of someone performing a ritual and being me, I just had to come see who the sacrifice was" Crocell chuckled which relieved Alex "well friend, no one is being sacrificed but a ritual was performed to-" Crocell paused his sentence and glared back at the demon in the dome, Alex also looked at the demon behind the dome 'this must be the one that the boy was talking about, he looks like a drug dealer' he watched Crocell carefully "um crocell, what's going on, why is there a demon here and in a giant dome?" Alex asked Crocell chuckled before placing his hand on Alex's arm "well Alex its a long story, so it all started when some kid from school was trying to ask us for love advice, I'm sure Roxanne has told you about me being a counselor and all" "she thinks you're a pedophile" Crocell growled to himself "anyway, I caught this guy around a boy so I'm just questioning him" "seems understandable, what's his name?" Alex already knew his name, he heard everything not too long ago but he tried to act as if he was new to this, Roxanne and Rodney hadn't made it to where they could hear the story but they are close behind, Crocell looked at Raguel and Tobias "this creep is Bangor, he was just telling us how he was trying to steal the boy's soul" Tobias didn't believe it, Crocell was saving him but something in the shadows caught his attention but he tried not to look alarmed, as the figures got closer, he could now see Roxanne and Rodney with their eyes on him, Roxanne signed for him to stay quiet and Rodney smiled and waved at him, Tobias looked away from them and turned back to Crocell and the angel, Alex looked at Tobias and winked

now as humans we take winks in different ways such as good, bad, lustful or playful, Alex's meaning of the wink was "dont worry, I was sent here to save you so dont panic" but Tobias took it as "you are indeed fucked now" which shocked Tobias but from looking at the children who were trying to open the dome, he was reassuered his safety "hey Crocell, mind if I have a drink, im parched" Alex said holding his throat "oh this isn't my house, this is his house, angel could you-" "only if you help me bring them in" Crocell grunted "fine, we'll be back , keep and eye on that creep for us" he as Raguel and Crocell walked into the kitchen, giggling and talking amonst them selves 'they are so gay for each other' Alex chuckled to himself, he then rushed over to the other demon "hey your name's Tobias right?" he asked him, the demon nodded "yeah?" "me and these kids are gonna get you out of here, okay" Tobias looked behind him to see Rodney and Roxanne breaking the pentagram "why did you bring them here, this is dangerous, do you have any idea how much trouble they could get in for doing this" "oh shut up, be grateful we're actually wasting our time doing this for your sorry ass" Alex growled at him, Tobias shut his mouth a looked at Rodney who was trying to unbind the pentagram 'hey Rodney' Rodney looked up at Tobias with a crooked eyebrow "how did you-" 'talking to you with my brain dummy, do the same' Rodney was confused 'god this guy is a weirdo' he thought to himself 'I can hear you!' the demon glared at him 'wait, so you can read my mind!?' 'dude...seriously' Tobias rolled his eyes and looked away from the boy 'its kinda how I knew Roxy over here turns you on, the thoughts you have are really fucked up bud, you should talk to someone about them' "Stay out of my head!!" Rodney shouted out loud, his face turned beet red when Roxanne looked over at him "you okay there?" she asked him "yeah I'm fine, this dick just wont stay out of my head" Roxanne chuckled then slowly scooted away from him 'you sound like a crazy person!!' Tobias chuckled, Rodney rolled his eyes and continued to take down the pentagram 'but what I wanted to say was thank you... for going through all the trouble to save my life' Rodney looked up at him 'no problem bud, you've been there for me, its time for me to be there for you, bros before hoes' he nodded at him then continued to work

"you almost done Roxy, we got to get the hell out of here" Alex told her "almost, I just need you to hand me my bag, I packed some herbs that I think might help a lot" Alex proceeded to grab the bag and throw it to her and with such grace that she caught it perfectly "thanks" she then grabbed a bottle of herbs and opened it, then gently began to sprinkle around the circle, the dome began to slowly fade away before Alex heard the two coming back from the kitchen "new plan, Roxanne I need you to attack me then jump out of the window, you do the same too Rodney" "but-" "buts are for pooping and right now there's no time for pooping, do what I told you" Roxanne proceeded to kick Alex in the gut as soon as Crocell and Raguel walked in "WHAT THE HELL!?" Crocell shouted before dropping the drinks, Rodney and Tobias jumped out of the window and left Roxanne "STOP THEM!!" Raguel shouted, Crocell tried to jump at her but she dodged and then jumped out of the window, Raguel quickly helped Alex off of the floor "what happened!" Alex gagged "TWO FUCKING INTRUDERS JUST STOLE OUR CAPTIVE!" "WHAT?!" Alex tried to play dumb to this, before Crocell could try to go after them, Alex stopped him "I'LL GO, YOU GUYS STAY HERE!" Alex said as he rushed out of the window "why is it that he is the only demonic friend you have Crocell?!" the angel said angrily "well its hell, you would have to go there to understand" Crocell said as he began to pick up the mess.

Alex chased after the three to make it seem like he was going to drag them back to the demon and the angel "that was fucking awesome!!" Roxanne shouted, her eyes twinkled with a sort of passion for adventure or just that fact that she was mentally telling her self 'calm the fuck down, sure you almost died but now your crush is hanging out with you' Alex glared down at her " it's not over yet girly and you know it, Rodney, I want you and your demon to go home, Roxanne, i want you to stay here and stay low until I get back" he then took off before much other things could be said

"GODDAMMIT HOW COULD I HAVE LET THIS HAPPEN" crocell shouted in frustration " it's okay dear, I'm sure Alex will catch the pests that did this" " I hope so angel" crocell looked upon his friend then away in shame, he tried his best to become good for his friend but the thought of it made his body do the opposite of his true intentions, like humans, we think were going to do one thing and in the next minute we do the exact opposite which makes us feel bad and mentally judge ourselves into the occasional "what the heck brain, why the hell did you do that" moment which occurs mostly when we find someone attractive and try to look good when really, we look like morons.

Alex came back empty handed and told his friends how the intruders slipped from grasp, of course the two were distraught about the news but understood that he had tried his best so they bid him goodnight and set him on his way "will we see you tomorrow morning, I will make tea and small cakes and we could all talk like old friends" angel asked, his hair was ruffled from the sudden commotion and his tie was knocked out of place giving it a slite tilt " sorry angel, but I have work to do and so does crocell" the demon glanced at the other demon who stood beside the angel " yeah, sorry angel, maybe later un the evening perhaps?" " ah yes, we could sit outside and watch the sun go down from our favorite park picnic table, right crocell" Raguel said as he gazed up a crocell causing the demon to turn a small shade of pink "yes yes of course, anything you'd like" the angel smiled at him and headed inside the small home leaving the two demons to talk " tomorrow after work, me and you need to talk in private" " why what is it" " like I said, tomorrow we need to talk, just before you get here for tea but in the mean time, you have a human to get to" crocell gave alex a gentle shoo from his hand before he went inside 'what the hell is that guy talking about' he shrugged off the thought before going on his way to meet up with roxanne, the two had thing they needed to discuss...
