No Pov

It has been several days since Y/N's visit to Cannibal Colony. His search throughout Pentagram City had gotten less than hopeful. He had gotten some information. But it wasn't about Lucia, rather someone who could help him.

Y/N Pov

This was the place that sinner had mentioned. A giant tower with a massive "V" at the top. I walked inside the building, and into what I assumed was the lobby.

Receptionist: Floor three...

He looked tired. Wires and technology was implanted into his head. Perhaps it was preventing him from resting? I decided to go to floor three as he stated.

The elevator music was tacky at best. The doors opened to floor three. Cameras were flashing, and people were gasping and cheering at models. The lights dimmed, and the final model came from the curtains.

Announcer: and finally, our overlord of fashion: Velvette!

Crowd: Cheering like a bunch of fangirls.

I will admit, she was gorgeous. But I imagine many were here for the clothing. I'm not here for either. I'm here for help.

After the show ended, I approached the "Overlord of Fashion"

Y/N: *Clears throat* Excuse me, Ms. Velvette?

Velvette: *not even looking up from her phone* No, I will not date you. Get lost.

Y/N Okay? Not why I'm here. A sinner said the overlord of this building can help me find someone.

Velvette: *Stops typing*

Y/N: That must be you right?

Velvette: *looks up from her phone* Oh, you're a pooch?

Y/N: *Raises eyebrow*I'm a sinner actually-

Velvette: Don't care. Floor 4. Vox is the guy you want.

Velvette quickly wraps an arm around my shoulder for a quick selfie. She smiles and snaps a photo before I can even blink, and then goes back to texting and a resting "I dislike everyone" face. She waved me off.

I went to the elevator and pressed "4" the tacky music played once again.

With Velvette

Velvette: *Calls someone* Hey, I'm gonna need you on floor 4 for something. Bring that powder.

Back with Y/N

I stepped out of the elevator. I was in an office setting, with wires and cameras sitting at several workstations. A corner of the room was kitted out like an actual workshop. There was a huge desk that lined an entire wall. A demon with a TV as a head was hunched over it, working on some drone.

Y/N: Um, Mr. Vox?

Vox: *Turning around* Ah do you have those sales reports for- *Sees that Y/N is not an employee*

Vox: *Turning around* Ah do you have those sales reports for- *Sees that Y/N is not an employee*

Vox: And who're you?

Electricity was crackling everywhere on this guy.

Y/N: Velvette said you could help me find someone?

Vox: *Sighs* Vel...

Vox: I'm a very busy person. You want me to find someone, you gotta pay.

Y/N: Well, I'm broke, to put it bluntly.

Vox: Alright then, let's make a deal. *Grins*

Shit. Rosie had told me about deals. Often times they lead to souls getting taken. That's how she got power. I don't feel like losing my soul.

Y/N: As long as I keep my soul, we can work something out.

Vox: *Loses his grin.* Let's see what we can do...

No Pov

They negotiated for a good few minutes. During this time, Velvette and another person steeped out from the elevator and slowly approached the two.

Vox: So you agree to grant me a favor of my choosing, when I choose?

Y/N: Correct. And in return, you're agreeing to find Lucia.

Vox: Sounds good to me.

Y/N sticks out his hand, which ignites in green flames, the same shade of his eyes. Vox shook it, and sealed the deal. It was only after this, that Y/N's wolf ears picked up a footstep behind him. He turned around and was met by a tall moth demon, who blew a white powder into his face.

Y/N fell to the floor. Every part of him felt heavy, and he slowly began to black out. While he did, he heard their conversation.

Velvette: Thank you Val.

Val?: Do I get to keep this one~?

Vox: You need to tell me when you send people my way, Velvette.

Velvette: *Rolls eyes* Whatever, someone help me get him back to my studio.

Val?: Sorry, I have a shoot! *Quickly leaves*

Velvette: Valentino! *Throws a phone at him* You fuckin' piss baby!

Vox: I'll help you Vel... *Sighs*

Y/N fully loses consciousness...
