BE-Familiar Chain

Blue Exorcist ff in which Rin has become the paladin (Lighting had succeeded Arthur but after the former got an injury which made him quit as paladin Lighting also stepped down as it was too bothersome for him) but by an awkward turn of events he has to prevent the execution of 4 demon Kings that have been captured. It is a very ill Lucifer, followed by Astaroth whom he utterly despises, Amaimon with whom he has no positive attitude for, and Beelzebub who he doesn't even know. Not to mention, why were there rumors of Mephisto having gone missing in a black hole!?? "How'd he even‐!" questioned Rin frustrated as Beelzebub and Amaimon shared a look. Throwing his head back the paladin glanced at the chained demon Kings wearing multiple talismans and charms. Lucifer was strapped down on a hard surgery table with only a thin blanket over his form (he still had the clothes he had been captured in on). "Guess I need to lay down some ground rules..." Rin said sweeping his gaze over each of them.

"While I'd personally like to give you more than 10 things to bear in mind, I'll only ask of you to follow 3 key rules at all times at least." Rin spoke making them look at him in their own ways. Silently, annoyed, bored and a bit nervous.

"Rule number one:" he held up finger, "no fighting or attacking humans, it doesn't matter if it's 'playing' with them either. Don't.Do.It!" Muffled groans were heard from the living bug killer as Amaimon rolled his eyes and Beelzebub was raising an eyebrow along with Lucifer. The insect king in an I-don't-care attitude while the oldest son of Satan was respecting the obvious mention of it.

"Rule number two: if you want to go somewhere or do something tell me first, same if you think you have been wrongfully accused which shouldn't happen if you do as your told and stay close to either me or two particular arc knight which I will later mention." Rin stated having raised another finger and ooking at the two Baal standing closest to him and each other. Lucifer nodded, it seemed agreeable enough and logical. Beelzebub occasionally stretched his head forward to look at his brothers expressions but otherwise remained quiet on his part.

"Now, the last rule. No contacting your kin is allowed while your within the Vatican or most importantly, the Grigory. Neither is keen on wanting to deal with any other sons of Satan so unless you want to get frozen in some uncomfortable crystal and then shipped off for execution I recommend you behave as much as possible." 3 of them gave him awkward looks at the mention of crystal but one looked out the window instead.

"Before I tell you anything regarding your accommodations, I propose an offer for you." A deal? That made all of them look at him directly like students standing before their headmaster...Lucifer being an exception. "Deal?" repeated Lucifer. "Like what?" Amaimon told his head. "Propably to make us subservient to the Exorcists!" hissed Astaroth scowling with his fangs shown. "What do you mean?" questioned the last Baal in attendance.

Rin gave a cheeky grin plopping himself unceremoniously on a table and rested his head in his head with was on his knee. "My offer to you is that I'll have most of the nonsensical and annoying restrictions on you removed if you don't try to rebel and promise to stay in line. My works already troubling enough as it is.. So do we have a deal?" Rin asked mumbling a part of it so they couldn't really understand the words correctly. (But even if they didn't his momentary frown gave them some indication of what it was) Beelzebub and Amaimon both looked at Lucifer but clearly showed that they wanted certain things off. Astaroth grumbled and gave a nasty glare at Rin which couldn't fulfill its purpose.
Rin and Lucifer shared a look with each other. No words were spoken, their thoughts remained their own and neither knew the others. "Fine then, we'll comply. But if one of the others finds out about our whereabouts that is none of our fault. Neither, are the consequences you'll have to face eventually." Rin's answer was a grin borderlining a smirk that remained even after he jumped off of the table.
