Damien didn't really know where he was going; all he knew was that he wanted out of the castle. He ran to the gates and swung them open; however, he might have used too much strength because they flew off their hinges, "Oops.... oh well!" Damien keeps running, down the nicely dirted path, past the garden and the royal graveyard. Yes, they do have a royal graveyard, don't ask, and he runs all the way to the town.

~*~

When he finally sees it, he marvels at it, "Wow.... I haven't seen this place in a.... century it feels like...."

Damien looks around. Demons were walking around everywhere; most were looking and pointing at him, and some were whispering to their friends about him. It was rare for Damien to come out of the castle, let alone come to the town.

He looks around at the shops; there were bakeries, cafés, restaurants, libraries, everything. All were decorated with bright colors; it was kind of Japanese style, and it looked lovely. There were trees too, nice red, pink, and black trees, the leaves from them covered the town in a beautiful multi-colored layer of leafy paint.

Damien would have wanted to stay there if it weren't for him knowing that every moment he spent here the more pain and suffering Pip was having to put up with the best he can. Damien was starting to get nervous. Emotions were never Damien's thing; if anyone was in trouble, he never really cared. But when it came to Pip, Damien would have destroyed the world to get to him.

Damien looks around some more as he keeps walking; some people come up to him and try talking to him, and some took photos. Damien decided that this would be a great thing to take advantage of. He walked up to a man with his wife and said, "Excuse me." The couple looked shocked and bowed down to him.

"Y-Yes, your royal highness?" the man said.

"Do you know where the torture grounds are?" Damien asks.

The man sweats as the lady speaks up, "O-Over at the very edge of the town. T-There is a tree, with a red mark, if you knock 5 times on it then it will open, and you can climb down to the torture grounds."

Damien nods, "Ok.... thank you." Damien then pulls out a coin and puts it in the old man's hand, "Trade it in at the pawn shop. It's worth a fortune. Take it as thanks for the help." Damien then runs off.

He didn't know how long it would take to get to the edge of town, but it didn't matter to him; he would get there one way or another. Little did he know that he wasn't the only one to go and get Pip.

-Time skip.-

Damien was getting tired; the hellfire sun was going down, and soon the hell blood moon would come out, and Damien would need to find a place to rest for the night, that or an energy drink. If he had the energy, it wouldn't matter if it was night or not; he would keep on going.

The trees were getting more common, and only an occasional campsite, forest house, or supplies shop would pop up. Damien was getting tired, along with getting hungry and thirsty so when he came across a supplies shop he ran to it.

He opened the door and grabbed a couple of Slim Jims, and a few bottles of water, and a few energy drinks, along with a bag. He went up to the cashier and put it all on the counter. The cashier looked at him, and his eyes widened, "Your Royal Highness!!" he bows.

Damien just looks at him with tired eyes, "Just scan the things please."

"It's free!"

"What?" Damien asks.

The cashier points to a sign near the door. It said, 'Any member of the royal family gets anything for free', "It's like that with every store."

"Oh. Neat." Damien puts everything he got in the bag, along with a few extra things, zipped up the bag, and carries it out, "Thanks!" he then leaves.

He pulls out one of the energy drinks and chugs it. He didn't get why the stuff was free to the royal; if anything paying more made more sense since they were rich. Damien just rolled his eyes though, whatever, it worked to his benefit, but it still was off. He then threw it on the ground; it didn't matter if he littered or not since hell has plastic-eating plants, literally, they survive on plastic, don't ask, no one knows why they exist. Damien keeps going, with more energy, food, and water, and Damien is all good.

-Back at the castle.-

"We need to find him!! Go!!" Cathryn yells to the guards as they run out of the castle to find Damien.

"He Isn't going to marry you! Curse or not!" Willow yells back.

"He has to!" Cathryn screeches.

"He won't!! Fatass!!" Willow yells back, covering his ears.

"Hey, don't call me fat you fucking jew!!" Cathryn yells.

"Hey, don't trash my religion, bitch!!"

"Guys stop fighting!" Stalla yells, "I mean Willow right but still! I can't listen to you two fight anymore!"

Kally then stands up, pulls down her mask, and says, "We need to find Pip. And Cathryn.. I don't care what you say I am going. I can't speak for the others, but I am going." Kally then walks out.

"Hey, wait up!" Stalla follows her.

"Coming too." Willow shortly follows, giving Cathryn the middle finger before leaving.

-With Pip.-

The pain was horrible and just as he thought he was getting used to it, suddenly the lights went out. The speaker turned on again and said, "Prisoner 110 billion. Your punishment is over for the day. We don't want you getting used to the pain so enjoy the rest while you can cause it starts again tomorrow."

Pip's eyes twitched, the voice on the speaker sounded so nice while saying the worst things. Pip looked at the copies of his old classmates and saw as they packed up and left the room, the copy of Mr. Garrison put down his chalk and left as well.

Pip sighed in relief and crawled his way to the corner of the room; he curled up and he felt as his eyes watered, he wanted to go home, it didn't matter how bad it was at home in South Park, it was better than there, "I miss Butters....and that one person."

Pip thinks, "I can't remember their name....must've hit my head hard on the desk earlier, but they were nice, can't tell if they were a girl or boy but....I just want to go back...." Pip starts crying and crying. He wanted home; he wanted his friends despite not having many at all, but most of all he wanted Damien, that's all.... that's all.
