Y/N was tracking down devils while running for a delivery. "C'mon, c'mon, devils, come here!" Then, a devil that resembled a star appeared in front of her. Siderophobia, she reckoned while making a hand gesture.

"Kon!" She yelled; then, a fox's paw appeared and swiped the devil, slaying it. Now, some skin, she snipped a piece of her arm's skin, feeding it to the Fox Devil, the devil whose paw she just used. She hauled the devil's corpse, running to the client's house. After arriving, she gave it to the person.

The person, after seeing the devil's corpse, was wide-eyed. She sprinted away to search for the Yakuza guy. A devil was about to attack, but the fox devil showed up, slashing the devil away. It turned out the devil had just killed the demon and left. "Thanks for your help!" She fed it some skin again, the creature looking at her before eating the bit of flesh. It disappeared once more. When she arrived at the Yakuza guy's location, she threw it on the ground in front of him. He said, "This should cost about 1000 yen, good job, Y/N." She smiled and walked away, now searching for Denji.

He was sitting near a tree when she found him, his head on his knees, arms hugging them. "What happened?" She asked, sitting beside him. "They tried to eat me...." The blond replied softly, "But I got away from them... I hope we find other devils, and we need to get that cash." His voice trailed off as he kept staring at nothingness.

"Hey, look at me." She pulled his face, so he looked at her. She rubbed one side of his face, "You did terrific today. You are strong enough to beat any devils you encounter. With Pochita, of course." As soon as you said' Pochita', the canine-like creature seemingly appeared from behind the tree. The blond exclaimed, "Pochi, Pochi!" It dashed towards them, leaping into Denji's lap, licking its master's face. He cracked up, hugging it tightly. "Pochita loves you, huh?" She said, devouring a burrito she stole from a local Subway, so her speech was a bit muffled; alternatively, Denji understood anyway.

Y/N, noticing it was getting dark, spoke, "Denji, let's head home. It's almost nighttime." He nodded, and she walked away, him coming after her with Pochita. Once they arrived at their old, run-down shack, they lay on the battered mattress. Y/N grabbed three pieces of bread from the cupboard. As well as giving one to herself, one to Denji and one to Pochita. He munched on it slowly, not saying anything. The two ate in silence for a while. When they were done eating, Denji closed his eyes, falling asleep first. Y/N lay beside him, placing an arm around him and letting him rest. Pochita crawled into Denji's lap, cuddling close to him. Y/N closed her eyes also, resting her face against the crook of Denji's neck. His scent filled her nostrils. Her eyelids felt heavy, and her breathing slowed down; the only thing she heard was the gentle breathing of Pochita as well.

Soon, all sounds in the shack vanished completely as sleep engulfed her.

A dream.

She saw herself standing on the bridge of some river, overlooking the world. Everything felt calm and quiet, and even the sky seemed brighter. She wondered how this could have been her dream because everything else felt real. Then, at the end of the bridge was a creature with a demonic, mechanical shape with long, jagged fangs and a chainsaw handle on the back—large chainsaws from his forehead, arms and legs.

"WH-WHAT'RE YOU?!" Y/N yelled, preparing herself to say 'Kon'. It turned to look at her and it turned to look at her and started walking toward her. "Kon! "She shouted, but nothing appeared. What's happening?! She pondered, backing away.

The bridge broke, and the dream ended.

She woke up, also waking up Denji but not Pochita. "Y/N, are you alright? You were sweating and breathing. Very loudly." "It's nothing, Denji. Nothing to worry about." She responded in an attempt to alleviate his worries. The Sun was already shining outside, and it seemed like you time travelled to the future. Nevermind that.
