(Pride Ring: Pentagram City – Cafe)

Alastor and Morbius were having afternoon lunch. The table is set with tea, sandwiches and wraps.

"I always dreamed of hanging out at the café this afternoon." Alastor grinned as he said that.

"Okay, one, I disagree with you having me go into this café. Two, I am busy helping Charlie motivate in her hotel and researching that book. Furthermore, I do not intend to pay attention to your egoistical radio announcements." Morbius stated before continuing.

"Don't be silly, Morbius. You have the gall to handle Valentino by yourself. I just couldn't help but find you the strongest being in all Hell." Alastor murmured. "Well, not bad for humans."

"Yeah, about that..." Morbius replied, picking one of the chicken wraps and eating it with the mouth hole in his mask.

"Is something going on with you, my infamous therapist?" Alastor wondered.

"I ain't telling you what I am. Mind your business." Morbius scoffed.

"Well, I do make businesses such as helping the Princess of Hell run on her silly project." Alastor replied, lifting his legs off the table.

"You couldn't get cockier, Alastor." Morbius replied, munching on the sandwich. "Anyway, I got a client's appointment tomorrow."

After taking it off the table, he put the demon dollars on top of it. "Put my money under the tab for me."

"Well do! See you then, my fabulous friend!" Alastor grinned.

(Pentagram City)

Morbius is walking down the sidewalk before stumbling upon a bunch of multiple Egg Bois, armed with various weapons like guns, wooden bats, wrenches, axes and knives.

"Oh great. This again?" The Supreme Counsellor sighed as he heard evil laughter coming out of the alleyway and revealed himself as Sir Pentious.

"Hello, Mr. Supreme Counsellor." Sir Pentious grinned, rubbing his hands together. "We will meet again, my friend."

There is no friendship between me and you. 'I have never met you before.' Morbius replied back.

"Who fucking cares? I saw you giving speeches on the monitor. That gives me my interest in you." Sir Pentious smirked, slithering towards him and wrapping the Supreme Counsellor in his tail.

"Why me?" Morbius asked.

"You have guts. That is why I am capturing you to see if you're a powerful human sorcerer." Sir Pentious responded with a hissing sound.

"I never said I was a human." Morbius retorted.

"Yeah, no doubt. But I can smell you, you are not the demon local or the sinner." Sir Pentious smirked.

"Would you mind leaving me alone for a moment? I have another business to settle." Morbius murmured, as he shooed Sir Pentious out of the way and walked away.

"Alright, then. We will do this the hard way." Sir Pentious said smugly, snapping his fingers.

The Egg Bois charged over at him as the Supreme Counsellor of Heaven and Hell swept his leg to kick them across.

"Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh!" Sir Pentious pulled out his remote and pressed a button.

His blimp arrived above them as the hatch opened up and dropped someone from the aircraft, tied around with a rope. Until it stopped him above street level.

"Lenny?!" Morbius asked, recognizing the demon figure, revealing it was a male shark demon.

Lenny is a dogfish shark demon with small cyan freckles underneath his light sand brown eyes and short snout. He has dark brown skin with white underbelly and long blonde hair with front bangs covering his right eye. He is dressed in a long blue jacket, white shirt with printed sushi in a bento box, jagged baggy brown pants, and dark brown skate shoes.
