Kingdom Of Demônios {4halo AU} {Complete}

The Brazilians Plea

"Oh, where is that pesky diamond?!" Bad shook out his wings and flew downstairs. Once he got to the bottom, he let his feet hit the ground. "Skeppy!" Bad walked through the entire lower level, every room. He even checked the kitchen, where one of his servants was cleaning the mess from breakfast. "Oh, Roier! Have you seen my Skeppy?"

Roier rolled his eyes. "You lose him again?"

"If I didn't lose him, would I be asking?" Bad huffed. Roier and him had a playful banter habit that never caused any real harm. He actually bantered with all of the servants. It ironically made things more fun, and they feel more like friends than employees this way.

"I don't know, man." Roier pulled a plate out of the sink. "Have you looked in the garden?"

"Good idea, maybe someone left a door open." Bad rushed to the nearest exit and wandered into the vined garden. There was more vines than flowers, but it was beautiful all the same.

"Oh, Tina!" Bad waved to the new gardner. Tina was human like Roier. Employed because she showed up to the castle begging for sanctuary. Like all the other servants. The Eggpire actually had many humans within it, and working for the royal family. Bad knew deep down it was because humans were easier to control, but he liked to see them as harder workers.

"Prince Bad, hi!" Tina waved, shearing some excess vine that was blocking the function of a beautiful nether flower archway.

"I said you can call me Bad."

"Oh right, sorry." Tina still felt uncomfortable working here, but at least she wasn't starving. "can I do something for ya?"

"I'm looking for Skeppy."

"Ooh..." Tina looked around. "Well I haven't seen the little guy. Sorry."

Bad pouted. "S'okay. I'll find him." He started walking away to the other end of the garden. "Oh, Tina?"

"Yeah?"

"Don't cut the darkest vines, they bleed."

Tina was mid-cut when he said that, and naturally she cut the vine anyway. "OH MY GOD!" Blood spurted from the vine, over her nice spring dress. "Why do they do that?!" She gaged.

Bad just laughed as he walked away.

"You scum–" Tina covered her mouth because she was not in a guillotine mood today.

Bad continued along a path until he was at a fountain. It was massive, expelling red water from the eyes of a statue. The statue was of Eggpire herself, Bad's mother. A viney demon not worth pissing off, but a fair demon to work for.

There was a splashing coming from the water. Bad smiled and stuck his hands into the fountain, pulling out a soaking wet diamond boy. Skeppy was about the size of a premature baby, but older than the rocks. He was technically made of rocks, if you're crazy enough to describe diamonds as rocks. 80% of Skeppy was glowing diamond. The rest was deep human-like skin that was now dripping red water.

"Who let you out?" Bad Pat the diamond gently on the back, hoping he didn't inhale any water. The Skeppy coughed and gaged until some of the red water came up and onto Bad's lap. Then the diamond made a little noise like henya and Bad knew he was okay.

"Aw, I'm glad you're okay." Bad gave the diamond a smooch on the head. "You may be immune to diseases, but you're not immune to stupidity. Stop climbing into ponds, fountains and water in general." Bad scolded his pet on the way back into the castle.

Bad was in the library, reading a book on Codes, as the war against them was starting to move closer. Until now the Code wars were barely a worry in Bad's mind. Bad flipped through the pages while cozy in a large armchair. Skeppy was stretched along his lap, playing with a piece of string he found.
