"How in the hell did you speak English?" Katarna said as she was ready to freeze the demon girl in an infinite time loop. The girl' body kept shaking like a wild dog now in the shelter.
"TALK" Katarna was becoming more and more agressive. Era spoke out.
"Cool it Katarna! Now! Scaring her like this accomplishes nothing."
"She shouldn't just be scared. She should be fucking terrified for her life!"
I grabbed Katarna's arm, she was flaming on the verge of causing a forest fire. Her ambition and drive to kill Satan and save Madsen have always been her weaknesses. She can't she past her goals. Like flashlight vision in the dark, it only shows you what's straight ahead not any of the surroundings near you. She only imagines her goals, never the extreme precession planning it'll take to achieve them.
"Stop pissing me off Demon girl...unless you want to die early."
"Die? You'd really kill me? Why? I've done nothing."
"Yeah, kill you! That means no longer breathing or whatever the hell you do!" Katarna was getting more and more aggressive, all the veins in her body looked close to popping. Her hands ready to strangle.
"Hell! Oh I'm from there! Our father Satan too!"
Katarna eyes widened, "H-hehe, really? So COOL! Now out of curiosity where is he?"
"Second, when do we stop her? What do we let her ask and do?" A concerned Era asks me as I contemplated the situation.
"That's- I don't know. So far, it's fine though."
"Oh so I can go on? Good." Katarna moves her right hand towards the Demon's chest. "My powers are pretty cool girl. I can control all aspects of time. Which means I could slow your Heart or whatever your people call it."
"Ok let's cool it Katarna" A frenzied Jason butted in.
"Oh great you now too! Just let me do my job as this family's leader!"
Demon girl replied happily, as if she was a child in some toy store.
"Leader? Oh like Papa! He's my leader!"
"Yeah I know, a greattttt leader!"
"Yes Katarna the best! I love Mr.Satan!"
"Then, where is he? A good follower would know!"
"At the orphanage I think? We got orders directly from him there"
This was real news, we thought he'd abandoned it and Madsen along with it. This meant he must have been keeping Madsen alive.
"That's a hell of a claim girl. There any new orphans? I mean, new kids living there? How do they interact, how do they live?"
"That's not summon I'd know. Satan doesn't tell anyone anything. He tells the boy a lot though..."
"Boy... what boy? He have a name?" Alice spurted out.
"He's called Madsen, but only Satan calls him that..." The demon girl answered.
We thought that meant nothing. That it was a simple fact we should expect. Until she continued.
"What a relief! So he's still alive! That's great-" San was interrupted.
"My people however can only call him by his title."
"Title?" Alice wondered.
"What the hell is she on about?" Katarna asked.
"We must call him commander. For he orders us all."
"N- no..." I said.
"BULLSHIT!" Both Katarna and Alice screamed.
"Believe it if you wish. I merely told you the truth."
The demon girl stopped answering our questions soon after. But we had learned enough already. Our brother could be the commander of demons. A commander of those who have attacked humanity for centuries. Satan's empire was finally declining. Humanity was beginning to rebuild and reshape the world.
"I... I can't believe this" Era says as if he's lost all hope.
"Then don't!"
"Exactly, Katarna and I refuse this idea! We have to!" Alice added.
"For Madsen! We can't believe this! He's our brother. No matter what we must save him!" Jason remarked.
To which we all replied:
"For Madsen"
Soon after our hideout was smashed into. And from the smoke oozing out of the wall from the blast that caved it in, we could hear a simple:
"For me?"
