Vox POV

I slowly got back to consciousness again. I opened my eyes but had to close them immediately after I got blinded by the lights. Slowly and carefully, I tried again. I opened my left eye and blinked a few times. After my first eye got used to the light, I tried to open the other one too. I sat up. My whole body was hurting. I wasn't "dead". He didn't even slam his knife into my body. Yay. Oh, right. I was fighting with the demon slayer a few moments ago. Was it moments? How long was I asleep? I looked around. I was in a room with a pretty well furnishing. A couch, an armchair, a TV and a bookshelf in one corner, a big kitchen over there, over there was a door which had the word "bathroom" written on it. I laid on a big bed. Red, black, many pillows and really comfortable. Just no exit. Ok. Stay calm. First of I had to find out if there really was no exit. If not, then I would find out who was responsible for this, and I would torture them until their-

Oh Shit. Just now I had noticed the other person laying on the couch. Of course, the demon slayer was also here. I would never get rid of him. He was still sleeping but if he woke up, he would end his work and let me wait for a few more centuries. More endless days I had to wait until my power grew back. I looked at him for a few seconds. He looked peacefully while sleeping. But in the next moment he moved. Great. Now the peace would end again. He quickly sat up and started to look around. His eyes got smaller as he saw me. He obviously wanted to grab his knife, but it wasn't in its usual place.

Shoto POV

I snapped back to reality. I quickly opened my eyes the light didn't bother me. I looked around. I was in a big room. I could see a kitchen, some kind of living room where I was in right now, a door that had the word bathroom on it and a bedroom. It had no walls or something it was just this room. And on the bed was... the demon. He probably was responsible for all of this. I wanted to grab my knife, but it wasn't there. Just like all my other weapons. Shit. I wasn't weak without my weapons, but I could be much easier defeated.

It doesn't matter for now. The demon was already hurt and there had to be at least one knife in the kitchen. I had already jumped up and was running to the kitchen. The demon was just watching. He probably actually accepted his fate. Well, he couldn't stand up so of course he just watched. That would make it a lot easier. I had found the knifes. Nice and sharp. I grabbed one and threw it at the demon. Just inches from his face it stopped. The demon looked as confused as I felt. I tried again. Same thing. The knife stopped before it could hit him and fell to the ground.

The embarrassing silence was broken by a loud squealing which hurt my ears. The sound came from above. After this ugly sound disappeared a voice began to speak. It sounded like a little girl. "Hello you two! It's so nice to have you here." You could hear the smile in her voice. Before I could answer, the demon did. He talked with a warm and deep voice. "Hello little one. My name is Vox Akuma. Could you tell me why I am here? With... him? It would also be nice to know who you are and how I got here." Wow. He can really speak with kids. Probably to trick them into trusting them and killing them right after. The girl answered him. "I know who you are. I also know the guy over there. The one you call demon slayer. I've brought you both here. You don't need to know why. And my name? You can call me... Ley. Yeah. Call me Ley. Oh, and also... Shoto? You can't hurt Vox. I made it like that. For now."

Vox POV

This must be a joke. A little girl had kidnapped us. What an irony. At least the demon slayer... Shoto can't hurt me. That's his name. Ok. Concentration. Um... ley? How exactly did you manage to bring me here? What exactly are you? A normal human could have never done that." The girl was giggling. "Oh no I'm a normal human. You don't need to know how I managed to do that. Let's just say I have great powers. Ok?"

After a long break the demon sla-... Shoto began to speak. He sounded... angry? "Ok I get it. You're a "normal" human. And you're a child. And we shouldn't ask ourselves how you caught us. But why the fuck are we here and when can we leave?!" "Oh... ummm well you're here because I wanted to bring you here." God that girl was annoying. She continued talking. "So, I will give you some tasks that you'll have to do. Besides that, you can do whatever you want. I gave you furniture, books and a TV for entertainment, a kitchen with food and a bed. You can either share the bed or one of you sleeps on the couch. Your decision. When you've done enough tasks, you'll be free. So, you'll better work together cause... Shoto you still got that promise. And Vox I don't think you want to stay in here for the rest of eternity. So just get it together. I'll give you some time to process everything. See ya." So, I was trapped. With a demon slayer. In a room. And some little girl would give us tasks. Wow my life was so good right now. I looked over at Shoto. He seemed... shocked. By the way... what promise was that girl talking about?

Shoto POV

How could this little piece of shit know about the promise? And why did it have to be me who's trapped with a demon. And I can't even kill him.

I looked over to the bed he was still sitting on. Vox. That was his name. Vox Akuma. He suddenly started to talk. "And what do we do now?" Tch. As if I would start talking to him just because we were trapped together. I'll still kill him after we got out of here. I looked around again. It was actually pretty nice here. Even though I was caught. I walked over to the kitchen. I saw a few ingredients inside the fridge and the cupboards. I was hungry and not in any danger so why not start to cook? I decided to make Spaghetti with tomato sauce.

I put the cooked noodles on a plate and poured some tomato sauce over it. I had also found some Parmesan, so I put a bit on my noodles. The demon was still just sitting there. He had just stared at me. Well what else should he do? I caused so much damage that he couldn't stand up. He looked at my food. He didn't want to show it, but I could see that he was hungry. Tch. He could stay hungry. Suddenly the girls voice appeared again. "Ok. I think you've had enough time to process everything. Shoto. The first task is for you." Of course, it was. What could a little girl want from me? "Your first task is to take care of Vox." What now?! I should help the demon with his wounds?! Tch. Of course. "You damaged him, so you must take responsibility. There's everything you need like bandages and medicine in the bathroom. Oh, and give him something to eat. Have fun." And she was gone. I sighed. Ok. Just this one time. I gotta get out of here. I could just give him new wounds when we were out of here. I slowly walked to the bathroom to get the stuff. Why is it always me, gods? Why always me?
