Macaque's POV:

After a few hours of shopping, Lavender and I have bought many toys, clothes, room accessories, furniture, hygiene products, food, and much more. Which I decided stored in shadow portals.

Lavender was currently holding a bull plushie that she insisted on holding.

Said bull plushie was around 12 by 8 by 8 inches. It was a lighter brown color with a darker mane, tail end, and ear fur. It had a long tail with a furry end, droopy ears with fur in the ears, short gray-white horns, a dark snout, black beady eyes, and dark hooves.

To Lavender, however, this thing was HUGE. Which I silently chuckled at as I continued walking.

After walking for a bit, I heard a familiar voice of a young boy. "Watch where your going, Peasant!" I turned to look at who said that, just to see Lavender and just who I thought, on the floor.

Lavender had her eyes shut seemed to have a confused yet relieved look on her face. She opened her eyes, being met with a not-so-happy Redson.

Lavender examined him with a very intrigued look on her face. His hair was like a raging fire put up in a, slightly messy, high ponytail. He had a long bull tail with a flame at the end. He had dark, droopy bull ears and short horns. He was just like her stuffed animal which I thought was pretty coincidental. 

I watched as Lavender scurried to get off Redson with a nervous demeanor."I- i'm very sorry!" She replied quickly in a shy tone as she looked around for the discarded bull plush.

I walked over to the two and towered over them with a sly grin as I helped them up. I was about to ask if they were good but heard an, all too familiar, voice.

"Macaque, dear, it's been too long." Said a cheerful, feminine tone. Princess Iron Fan walked over to the us with a sweet smile. Once she was in reaching range of me, she hugged me tightly. "Iron Fan, Hi! What are you doing here?" I asked, returning the hug.

"Well, Redson and I decided to go to the market to get some ingredients for new recipes." Iron Fan replied, motioning to her child.

She grabbed my hands and held them together, "Now, little brother, what have you been up to all this time?" PIF asked, the name gave me a reassuring feeling, as we walked away from the kids.


For around 10ish minutes, PIF and I just talked about what's happened over the last couple hundred years. We had our moments of wanting to beat the shit out of someone in our tales but it was. . . nice, talking to her again. 

"-Macaque?" PIF asked with a concerned look on her face. "Are you feeling alright, Míhóu?"  I snapped back, "Oh! I'm sorry, Tiě shàn. W-what were you saying?"

"Well, I was talking about how Redson and his Father beat the shit out of some princess that wanted to marry my son at a young age, but it seems something is on your mind. Mind sharing?" She asked with a kind smile and a slight head tilt.

I waved off her question with a chuckle, "It's nothing. . . It's just your little family kinda makes me question how little Bright Eyes used to live."

"'Bright Eyes?'. . . OH! Do you mean that little cutie with my son?" PIF asked with a smile and adoration brushed on her face. "She is so precious for an Ender Demon. I mean usually they are pretty tall and menacing with their dark magic, but not this one." She inquired.

"You're half right." I chuckled lightly. "She says she's a mix of an Ender and Soulbell Demon."

PIF looked at me confused and concerned at the same time. "A mix you say? . . . and what did you say her name was?" She asked in a quiet tone but it seemed more like she was begging? 

"Lavender Kaen. Or Xūnyīcǎo Kǎ ēn, If i'm correct."

"That seems so familiar. . ." She muttered to herself, even though she knew I could hear it. I wasn't going to disagree with her claim either. Lavender did seem like a familiar being but it was almost like an idea that was lost in thought.

After about 10 minutes PIF and I decided we would share information we find about her or her origin. We began to walk back over to the two kids and saw an interesting scene. Redson was holding Lavender's face and they were both staring into each others eyes intently.

I saw PIF snicker and take out a demon camera."You were right about her getting along with others easily." PIF snickered teasingly, holding the camera in front of her face, as she captures the moment.

Redson jumped out of his daze, literally. "H-huh?. . . M-MOTHER!? This Peasant hypnotised me!" Redson accused, as he backed away from Lavender.

Lavender giggled at the Prince's change in character, which we all turned our attention to.

I could tell that we all thought the same thing 'she is adorable.'  PIF gave me a look that I knew all too well. She was agreeing with me on Lavender's familiarity.

PIF turned her attention back on the child and looked at Lavender with adoration. "Look at her! She's so cute! I see why you picked this one too. She's got many powers for a demon, she really does seem to be a mix, which means she has a longer lifespan than many demons, and look at her! Her little tail, her ears, her eyes, the hair, everything!" PIF praised.

Lavender blushed slightly at the compliments and praise. "Th-thank you, Lady Iron Fan." She stuttered. "Oh, don't with the formalities."PIF waved her hand in front of her face. "'Iron Fan' should work nicely." She recommended.

Redson and I just watched the conversation in shock, him more than I.

Lavender walked over to her stuffed bull on the ground. She picked it up and dusted it off as she walked over to Redson. "H-here! It's for bumping into you earlier!" She offered the bull, looking away with a small blush on her face.

"Oh! Uh- um- Thank You." The Prince muttered, with a pink tint on his face, as he took the bull. He examined it for a moment. Its beady eyes, fluffy tail, droopy ears, short horns, and the way its brown fur felt. I assumed Redson liked it because his tail was wagging though he had on a blank expression.

Lavender giggled as PIF cooed over the scene, I'll admit it was cute but PIF was always better at showing it.

We said their goodbyes to PIF and Redson, promising to meet again. As we went our separate ways.
