It's been a few days since that conversation with Hana. We've been discussing the matter nonstop over tea and coffee and while we were working. We got a letter from Beelzebub once, all it said was "help me" and a sentence written in a different language. Virgo easily understood what it said when we brought it to her, being the one who can read, write, and speak every language ever created.

"He wants to meet you on Earth, preferably the Amazon."

Hana and I grew very hesitant. It could be a trap. We aren't stupid. We wrote back, requesting to just keep it written.

A few minutes later, another letter came, practically begging to meet in person.

Bring guards if you need too, I just desperately need help.

Hana, Virgo, and I talked for hours, debating what to do.

"I'm going." Hana stated.

"I'm going with her." Virgo also stated. I tried protesting, wanting to go with them, but the two were stubborn and refused. I had to let them go.

"Well let you know if we need help."

The two made their way to Earth.

Virgo and Hana made their way to earth. They kept their guard up as they made their way towards where Beelzebub wanted to meet up.

"I'm kind of nervous. What if this is a trap?" Hana said, anxious and worried.

"Even if it is, I've got a fist with his name on it," Virgo said, cracking her knuckles. Hana smiled and shook her head.

Hana looked down and saw those familiar wings. He was sitting under a tree.

"Beelzebub."

He looked up.

"Lady Hana! And Miss Virgo."

"What? No proper title for me?" Virgo said angrily.

Beelzebub flinched.

"Forgive her. She's defensive. What do you need?"

"I need help."

"With what?" Hana asked.

He showed her Yin's insignia on his wrist. Virgo scoffed.

"Yeah, we know. You're his lackey."

"I didn't have a choice."

Virgo and Hana glanced at each other.

"Please elaborate." Hana said.

He began explaining. He was born on one one of the planets as royalty, but his powers were different. Despite his powers over decay, he was still treated with respect and love along with his sisters. He was king of the fairies and ruled fairly with his two sisters being co-rulers. Yin's forces came to the fairy lands to destroy them along with the rest of the planet. He begged and pleaded to spare the planet. Yin did, at the cost of his own freedom.

Beelzebub joined Yin to save his family and home, and in doing so, he lost everything he once knew. His family, his home, and his people.

"I was a devoted follower of yours, but now I can't even hold one of your worship items without being beaten."

She nodded in understanding. Virgo was still skeptical, but she could sense his sincerity.

"The only way out I can think of is death. He says our days are numbered. I'm terrified. I don't know what to do."
