Yelena and her clones were having a grand time with her dates. Although Ryoko was sad that Meliodas and Zeldris are here but at least she gets to dance with original Yelena so she would enjoy this privilege she has with her lady.

Ryoko giggles when she hears a meow. She turned to face a beautiful black cat with big green eyes.

"Aww!" she squealed as she loves cats, she moves over and picks it up in her arms.

"Ooh, you're such a beautiful kitty! Oh, are you a stray?" Ryoko asks while petting the cat and then checks to see if it's owned by someone or not. She felt no collar or anything, and decided it was a stray.

Then again, people have stupid superstitions and one of them being that a black cat brings bad luck. Or that a witch is the black cat in disguise or something. Though Ryoko knows that it's an ordinary cat, being a skilled hunter she is.

A clone wanders over to her side. "Oh, that's a cute kitty." the Yelena clone comments.

"Right, my lady?" Ryoko grins over to her. Then notices that a clone is with her, and she looks over to see that the real Yelena is hanging with Zeldris now.

She pouts a little, but decides not to fuss. Yelena can have more than one lover, so she won't interfere with it. But it'll take some time for her to adjust to that, knowing she'd have to get along with those two demons.

"Oh, damn it..." Ryoko says with a pout, but she hugs onto her furry companion. The cat purrs loudly in her arms.

"Aw, you're that unhappy with me?" the clone pouts at her.

"No I am, love! Just that well..." Ryoko mumbles while petting the cat, and the clone just giggles. She doesn't blame her, because it doesn't feel the same with a clone than with the real thing.

During this, Yelena is with Zeldris at the moment as they both hang near a tree while the other folks are dancing to the music. "You hardly showed your face to your own race?" he questions in mild surprise.

"No. I pretty much don't like associating myself with them given they like the thrill of hunting and killing and enslaving, things like that. I like my own peace, and because of that the Belmonts don't bother me as long as I don't bother them." the vampiress tells him with a shrug.

"Good. Peace is good, that's why Meliodas and I left." Zeldris remarks to her.

"Oh? Is that why you two left your homeland?" Yelena asked him.

"After what happened with the war, we decided leaving our place would give us a clean slate to start over. It doesn't help that wherever you go, people are afraid of you because of the reputation you earned. Plus too many bad memories, and our deadbeat father doesn't give a rat's ass about us as people." he tells her with a scoff.

"The Holy War? I do remember that happening a long time ago. But, at least you two left to start fresh and... that's a good thing." she remarks with a sympathetic smile on her face.

"It wasn't easy but... it was needed." Zeldris says to her with a calm but almost serene expression on his face.

He then looks at Ryoko, seeing her interacting with the cat in her arms while also with the Yelena clone that can easily pass off as her twin or triplet. Given that another clone with different hair style and dress color scheme is with his older brother.

"How did you and Ryoko end up together? Given I noticed that she's a hunter." he asked her, and Yelena smiled sheepishly.

"See funny thing is, we met at a carnival almost like this and from there, it was history. I didn't think she knew I was not normal right away, until she asked if I was thirsty." she tells him.
