You had no idea where you were.
It was pitch black.

You called out.

A voice spoke to you.

It was faint.

Sweet and gentle, like a comforting mother.

"MC...

Come back to me, MC..."

You blinked your eyes a few times, adjusting to the brightness of your surroundings.

It was familiar. Beelzebub's room.

What?
You weren't dead? Then... who's voice was that earlier on?

You quickly checked your pulse.

It was steady.

Beel felt your movement and sat up. It appears he had been watching over you as he was slumped on the side of his bed while you occupied it.

"MC? You're awake!"
He said, quickly helping you up.
You felt a sharp pain on your back which had collided with the wall.

"I thought you might have never woken up, since humans are so fragile and all."
Beel said with worried eyes,
"But i'm really glad you are awake again."

"I thought i was a goner too, Beel... I'm glad you are okay."
You told him, holding your throbbing head.
It seemed you were more durable than you thought.

"Do you remember what happened? You made Lucifer really mad when you stepped in to save Luke and I. You almost got yourself killed. If Lord Diavolo hadn't come running up, you'd be dead right now, you know. Lord Diavolo managed to stop Lucifer."
He paused, checking on you before continuing,
"You saw how Lucifer looked back then, yet you stood your ground and spread your arms to block him, it was as if you had a death wish. You need to go to Lord Diavolo and thank him for saving you."

You nodded in agreement. You definitely had to thank the prince, now you knew he had true, good intentions. Plus, he saved your life.

Wait. Where's Luke?

You hastily asked about the young angel.

"Nah. Don't worry, he's fine. Simeon came and took him back to the Purgatory Hall. He was pretty shaken up after the experience."
He replied looking solemn again,
"Luke didn't do anything wrong, it was my fault. I hid him in my room, i'm the reason he disappeared and i ended up putting you in danger... it was all my fault."

The sixth born blamed himself once more.

"When you stepped in to shield me, i was pretty shocked. Why did you go to such lengths? You don't have any magical powers, you aren't a demon or angel. You are a regular human. So why...? Why did you protect Luke and i?"

"I don't know what got into me either. It just felt right. You guys... are my friends and you are important to me. That's all."
You answered, figuring it was the best way to put it.

Beel smiled contently to your surprise,
"So... i'm your friend. Ah...
As i watched you just now, i couldn't help but wonder... if the situation had been reversed, would i be able to be the one who steps in to protect you?

I want to do something to make up to you for saving me, is there anything i can do for you?"

Beel looked at you with gratefulness and anticipation.

Maybe this could be your chance... not just for Belphegor but you really wanted a proper acquintance with the orange haired demon.

"If you would allow it...would you form a pact with me?"
