Kingdom Of Demônios {4halo AU} {Complete}

Healing Richas

Forever and Bad spent two weeks speaking with Bagi as a bridge. It was more like mandatory business meetings than dating. But Bad felt like he was slowly getting somewhere. Every day Forever talked less and less about the codes and how sick demons were. He was becoming quieter, but hearts can grow fonder in silence.

Bad sat in his usual spot, Bagi at hers, and Forever at his. Bad set Skeppy on the table in case anyone got nervous and wanted to hold him. But mostly they just eyed Skeppy with a weary fascination.

Bagi crossed her legs and cleared her throat. She tried to stay efficient and professional regardless of the circumstances. "So, what do you think you'll want to talk about today?"

"Ask Forever." Bad smiled and pulled out his English-Portuguese Portuguese-english dictionary.

"Sobre o que você quer falar?" {What do you want to talk about?}

"Quero que você saia da sala hoje. Quero testá-lo. Quero ver o que ele fará quando não houver ninguém aqui. Quando ele achar que não estou suspeitando." {I want you to leave the room today. I want to test him. I want to see what he will do when no one is here. When he thinks I'm not suspicious.} Forever eyed Bad in a challenging way, but it wasn't necessarily aggressive.

"Tem certeza?" {Are you sure?}

"Por favor, Bagi." {Please, Bagi.}

"Okay then..." Bagi looked at Bad. "He requests that I leave the room...you have your dictionary, time to test out what you learned." She stood up and took a few steps to the door. "I will go help the others." While no official arrangement has been made yet, the Brazilians were put to work. Deep cleaning the castle. They were not paid in gold yet, but they got all the food and water they wanted. As well as plenty of warm blankets and food. Best of all, they had no need to fight. All this because Bad insisted they get no less, and Eggpire thought they were a group of adorable little humans. She could entertain them for now.

Bad got a piece of paper and started writing something out. He had a lot to say, and a long way to go with proper pronunciation. He didn't want to accidentally say the wrong thing.

"O que você está fazendo?" {What are you doing?}

"Um segundo." {One second.} Bad tried to go faster. He finished and slip the paper over to Forever.

Eu gosto mesmo de você. Você é muito bonito. Você está determinado. Você não precisa se casar comigo. Mas eu quero me casar com você.

I really like you. You are very handsome. You are determined. You don't have to marry me. But I want to marry you.

Forever snatched the dictionary from him and started writing on the paper. After a few minutes, he slid the paper back.

Go back to hell.

"Linguagem...Am I saying that right? Linguagem?" Bad tried again.

"Linguagem." Forever said slowly so Bad could repeat him.

"Linguagem." Bad tried again.

"Muito bom." {Very good.}

Bad giggled and clapped his hands. "Eu sou muito bom!" {I'm very good!}

Forever found himself cracking a smile at Bad's adorable mannerisms. "Fofo." {Cute.}

Bad's face suddenly went blank, then he smiled again. "O-obrigado." {Thank you.} Bad was about to make a romantic advance when the child's crying slowly bled down the hall. "Oh no, sounds like Richas is upset."

Forever stood and was about to leave the room. But he paused, as if he was starting to respect the demon authority.

"Vamos." {Come on.} Bad walked out into the hall. Cellbit was pacing the hall, Richas in his arms.

"Ele está bem?" {Is he okay?} Forever approached Cellbit.

“Eles limparam seu ferimento novamente." {They cleaned his wound again.} Cellbit sighed and adjusted the boy on his hip as Richas cried and grabbed at his shirt. "Dói." {It hurts.}

"What's wrong with him?" Bad asked.

Cellbit wiped some tears and snot off of Richas' face with his shirt. "He is in pain, from his wound."

"Oh...how bad was it? Did they stitch him up?"

"Yes, it's pretty bad. He hardly sleeps. He's always fussing."

Bad furrowed his brows and watched Forever worriedly put a hand on Richas head. "Can I see the wound?"

"I...uh..." Cellbit hesitated, looking at Forever since he spent the most time with Bad. "Ele quer examinar Richas." {He wants to examine Richas.}

Forever looked Bad up and down like he was a stranger. "Fique perto." {Stay close.}

Cellbit sat on a bench and lifted the fabric of Richas pant leg. "They just wrapped it."

Bad kneeled down and took into consideration how big the wound must be based on how much of Richas leg was wrapped. "What happened?"

"Running from codes, he fell into sharp debris."

"It sounds pretty painful..." Bad thought for a second. "Wait right here,  I have something to help." Bad went down the hall, looking around like he didn't actually know where the thing was.

"Ele está conseguindo algo para ajudar." {He is getting something to help.} Cellbit told Forever. "Como vai você? Você se lembra de algo?" {How are you? Do you remember anything?}

"Não. Estou sempre com aquele demônio pervertido." {No. I'm always with that perverted demon.}

"Pervertido? Ele tenta seduzir você?" {Perverted? Does he try to seduce you?}

"Não..."

Bad came back down the hall holding Skeppy. "I don't normally do this, but I think this is a good cause."

Cellbit gave Bad a questioning look. "What are you doing with your...uh...what is it?"

"It's a Skeppy. Also known as a diamond boy or my best bestie." Bad gestured to Richas. "Remove the bandage."

"Uh, okay..." Cellbit needed Forever's help to free the wound, but they managed to do it while Richas cried. "I'm confused."

Bad held Skeppy up. "Skeppy heals." Bad let Skeppy sniff around Richas leg. Once he knew what he was supposed to do, his eyes started glowing like little Christmas lights. Before everyone's eyes, Richas wound started to age days in seconds, until it was just a dark scar. Skeppy yelped and his eyes abruptly stopped glowing.

"o que está acontecendo?!" {What is happening?!} Forever shouted.

"É um milagre! Este demônio faz milagres!" {It's a miracle! This demon does miracles!} Cellbit was shocked but intrigued.

Forever and Cellbit stared in amazement. Richas' crying started to die out until he was quietly resting his tired head against Cellbit's shoulder.

Bad held Skeppy close to his chest and kissed the top of his head as the diamond shivered. "I don't let just anyone use Skeppy's ability, it hurts his little head and makes him feel sick."

"I-I have no idea what to say..." Cellbit was still stunned. "Obrigado." {Thank you.}

Forever looked at Bad, judging him. Wondering if maybe there was some genuine perfection to this demon. Perhaps Forever was starting to admire him.
