Loved by Demons

Annihilation Imminent

Cherri's P.O.V

"So where exactly is this place?" Y/N asks, running next to me.

"Well, according to Vox Maps, it's in the northeastern section of Pentagram City. Apparently, it's a moderately industrial area with plenty of people around, so as long as the sinners nearby see that an ongoing battle is raging on inside, they'll steer clear of the factory" I reply, keeping my gaze partly on him so that I can slow down if he's falling behind.

"But if any wander in there like idiots or join in, then it isn't our fault if they get caught in the crossfire" My boyfriend speculates, making me grin at how intuitive he can be.

"Precisely" I nod, keeping that grin on my face, "You're hot when you're talking smart, you know."

"Well, then I have a few more smart things to say" He pants, slowing to a stop as I do the same, "Let's find a vehicle to take us the rest of the way and next time not use Vox Maps to find the place."

"Why?" I frown, putting my hand on his shoulder to ensure he's ok.

"Because we've already run almost a mile and it's still across the city from where we are. I'm tiring out already and we need our strength for the fight ahead" Y/N rationalizes, "And even though Vox 'let Velvet give us the locations', he doesn't know which we're going after first. But by putting the coordinates in, he might know where we're going and warn the people he has there ahead of time."

"Y/N, I highly doubt that Vox can know where we are. His specialty is electricity and being a pretentious dickhead, not a tech wizard" I assure him, my boyfriend catching his breath, "But say we don't use the app. How else are we going to find where they are?"

"We do some scouting ahead or something, I don't know" Y/N sighs heavily, "I'd rather just be cautious than potentially doing something stupid."

"Don't worry, Y/N" I tell him, holding his face in my hands, "I won't let anything happen to you. That antenna-headed asshole isn't going to lay a finger on the one I love without going through me first!"

"Thanks, Cherri" He attempts to smile, earning him a kiss on the cheek, "But, really, let's find a car to take or something."

"Hmmm" I hum, taking a couple seconds to look at our surroundings, "Well, we're in luck, then, because we just so happen to be next to have a car park nearby."

I point a few streets down and Y/N looks that way, nodding when he sees it too. The two of us then make our way over there, choosing to ignore the glances of recognition nearly everyone else gives us. We bypass the little checkpoint station and trot up the entrance ramp, our eyes scanning the parked cars for one to hijack. I think Y/N would agree with me that we should pick something lowkey, so I settle with a dark red sedan when my boyfriend stops near it. My next thought is to elbow the window and open the door from the inside but Y/N stops me. The keys, that are stupidly just sitting on the driver's seat, then begin hovering, inserting themselves into the ignition and starting the car before the door opens.

"What the..." I remark, confused and shocked, "How..how did you do that?"

"It may or may not have to do with the power I got from the Radio Demon" Y/N winks, getting into the driver's seat, "But you'll get to see more once we get to where we need to go."

"Oh, so you're driving, huh? Ok, then" I grin, climbing over his lap and sitting myself down in the passenger seat before we set our bags in the backseat.

"I got a very good score on my driving test, so don't you worry your pretty little head, Cherri" He smiles, which gets him a playful nudge on the shoulder from me.
