After having finished our meal Alastor had asked if I needed help finding my way back to the hotel. I ended up telling him that I had actually come out to find some clothes. His eyes told that he found it amusing that I went to get clothes and ended up cannibalizing another demon.

In the end Alastor had accompanied me as I went to get clothes from the store across the street. With the help of my shadow and familiar I ended up stealing a variety of clothes. When I had finished Alastor walked with me back to the hotel.

"Thank you for walking back with me Alastor. I'm sure it would have taken much longer to find the way back on my own." I thanked him kindly.

"It's no trouble my dear. I've rather enjoyed your company!" he said with a laugh in his voice.

"Then perhaps we should hang out again sometime." I chuckled softly.

"I'd like that." he said before opening the front door to the hotel and holding for me.

I smiled up at him saying a quiet thank you as I entered the building. Almost immediately after entering I was grabbed and dragged off. This was rather annoying so I did my best to keep a smile on my face. The customer service smile if you will.

The one who had dragged me off was that white haired girl, "Stay away from him Mary. Alastor is bad news." she warned in a hushed whisper.

Was that seriously why she dragged me off like a rag doll? To warn me about a guy who obviously did something horrid? Like we are literally in Hell bitch. Everyone here is dangerous in their own ways. Sure some are likely to be more so than others.

"Is that all dear?" I questioned her, my customer service voice coming out.

That looked like it had upset her, "You don't understand. He's one of the most powerful and dangerous beings Hell has ever seen!" she tried once more this time with a bit of annoyance in her voice.

"I already know that honey. A witch can sense the power of others." I told her an annoyed snarl leaving my lips before I walked away.

As I made my way towards the stairs I was stopped by Charlie who had a concerned look, "Hey Mary are you okay? You look pretty upset." she asked in an almost motherly tone, almost.

"I'll be alright dear. Though I'd prefer if you and the others called me Salem or Mother." I informed her after taking a calming breath.

"Mother?" Charlie inquired with confusion and a tilt of her head.

"Yes dear. You see witches have our own form of ranking. I an known as both mother and crowne." I explained as simply as I could

"Oh...where does that place you?" she asked curiously.

I smile at Charlie, "I'm the highest my dear." I told her.

Charlie's eyes practically sparkled at this information, "That is so cool!" she cheered.

"Thank you my dear. Now if you'll kindly excuse me I'll be heading to my room now." I excused myself before heading up the stairs to my room.

Getting to my room I went inside and closed the door behind me with a sigh. Today had been rather eventful, and it was still only my first day here. My shadow raised off the ground and went over to the closet. Likely to put away all of the clothes we had stolen.

Mittens also came back, clinging onto a jar. Inside the jar was the heart of the demon that Alastor and I had feasted on earlier. I took the jar from Mittens and placed it onto the dresser that was provided. A small smile graced my lips while looking at the heart.

"Does this room have its own bathroom?" Mittens asked as he started to walk around.

I went to the only other door in the room and opened it. Inside was a quaint little bathroom. There was a marble sink and vanity top with a mirror hanging above it on the wall. Beside it was a toilet and across was a bathtub and a door likely leading to a linen closet.

Rather nice bathroom if you asked me. "Guess this is it?" Mittens said as he walked in, "At least it has a tub. Now you just need flowers and oils."
