A couple of days had passed since my unusual meet with that demon.

I have found out a few things. Adam told me that they never go down to hell to attack. He's an Angel, he wouldn't lie.

————————flashback————————-

"Hey Adam" I smiled at him.

"What's up babe" he was slurping down a soda. Lute was standing next to him, glaring at me.

"I wanted to ask you something, if that's okay of course" I sounded awkward. Part of me didn't want to ask because I didn't want to know the truth.

Adam almost coughed on his beverage. In reality he was expecting me to confess my love. That wasn't it though

"I had a very strange encounter with a demon yesterday. He bothered me in my normal hiding spot"

"Yeah. Get on with it" lute hissed. I still never understood why she hated me so much.

"Well he mentioned something about an extermination. He says it happens once a year. I was curious if he was just lying to make us look bad"

Both of them looked nervous. I didn't know why at the time. I assumed maybe it was because Adam was worried that demon tried to hurt me.

Adams soda hit the ground and he began rambling for a bit before lute shut him down

"Do you really believe a demons word over ours?" Lute questioned

"No of course not."

"Then why bring it up?"

"I guess his words just affected me more than I thought. It could've been that I was under some sort of spell." I tried to rationalize it myself.

"You definitely were. We never go into hell toots. I would never believe a word those losers think alright." Adam seemed a little more threatening

"You're right. I think I'm going to take a day off to sleep off the rest of the spell he must've put on me. Thank you for answering my question. I know neither of you would do something that awful" I smiled and skipped off

Getting back to myself, I sunk into my couch. Rethinking the whole conversation. Were they being deceitful?"

—————————————————————

I shook my head to get back to the present. I can't keep holding onto that conversation.

Another thing I learned, that demon Alastor. He is an overlord known as the "radio demon"

He is the cruelest overlord in hell. I came face to face with a true psychopath but he didn't try to harm me.

All this was too much, maybe I needed more than a day away from this place.

While being deep in thought, I didn't even notice the demon appearing behind me

"Good afternoon my darling!" He sounded chipper.

I jumped about 6 feet in the air, spooked by his sudden appearance

He laughed at watching my fear.

"Hey you can't just appear with letting someone know. It's rude"

"My apologies, I did try to shout that I was nearby but you seemed lost in thought. Having troubles my dear" he looked like the Cheshire Cat with his creepy smile

"What? No! Well" I'm bad at lying

"Is it about our conversation the other day?"

"I asked about the exterminations and they told me there is no such thing. You lied to Me" I frowned

Alastors eyes shot a glare. Alastor didn't lie often. Not to mention, why would he lie about a group that was much more powerful and cruel than him? "Why don't you see it for yourself?"

"I told you before, I can't. I'm not alllowed to"

He rolled his eyes "please darling. You can't tell me you've never done anything against the rules. That's a boring way to live. Living a life by your own choice, well , would be much more entertaining"

I shook my head "no it's not. A world of free will is a world of evil. Look at hell sir. No offense, but this place is a cesspool of trash. Heaven is nothing of the sort and we have rules we must follow"

"Again. Boring" Alastor clicked his cane into the ground.

"It is not" I tried to argue. "Why we even here to begin with?! I told you we wouldn't see each other again and yet you came back"

"Ah yes but what fun is that?" He moved closer to me.

I took a few steps back. Completely and utterly annoyed by this man. Like this dude decides to bother me. I don't want to deal with him and his aggressively red everything.

He continued talking at me about many different topics. Murder, Money, New Orleans, his old job from when he was alive. It was all just strange. Why waste his time with me? He's got nothing to gain.

After a few hours I stopped him "look, Alastor, you're an overlord, you have friends, don't you?"

He thought for a moment. He did have a few friends but with the exception of Rosie, only want to be protected by him. He wasn't an idiot, he just didn't care.

"I do however, none are as innocent as you"

I blushed "what's that supposed to me"

"Take it as you will my dear" he waved off and disappeared

"Really! You're just going to leave without answering my question!" I shouted. This man frustrated me beyond belief.
