When the day came, master made me wear my servants uniform and send me to the right dimension.

I arrived on time, but kept my distance to all the demons. Once everyone was there, Bill revealed himself on his throne. He looked so handsome, so stunning, so...Bill.

I felt tears rise, but swallowed them. I avoided his gaze.

Suddenly, after Bill opened the buffet, someone wrapped an arm around me. I flinched.

"William, my old pal! That's a weird looking suit for a demon of your power!", the someone said. I turned around to face Kill.

"It isn't important.", I stated.

"Alright, just saying, because you look like a servant.", he grinned. I couldn't stop myself from hugging my friend.

"You've been away for a while. I thought you'd call sometime, but you just never did.", he sighed.

"Kill, there you are!", I suddenly heard Bill say. I slipped away.

Then I proceeded to hide in a dark corner, hoping that noone saw me.

I started turning my special hearing and the device on master had given me to eavesdrop on the powerful demons.

I knew all these guys, but they didn't know me anymore. I was barely a distant memory. Honestly, it was surprising Kill even recognized me.

"Hey. What's up with Kill, he's acting weird.", I suddenly heard Bill say. I turned the hearing off.

"You look like deer caught in headlights. You're both weird.", the yellow demon laughed.

I looked away.

"Do you want something to drink? I have a few nonalcoholic things too...", Bill sighed.

"Why did you invite me?", I suddenly asked.

Bill shrugged and asked: "Why did you come? You don't seem interested in any of this."

I bit my lip.

"Congratulations on your victory, Bill. I'm really glad you finally get the life you always wanted.", I said, instead of answering his question.

"The life I...William, I wanted a life with you. This doesn't mean a lot to me, honestly. It's incomplete without my favorite demon.", he claimed. I looked in his eyes.

He was honest.

"You broke my heart, Willi. I never got over it.", he said.

"Hey, uhm, Bill, let's leave him alone!", Kill suddenly said nervously,  showing up behind Bill.

I ignored him.

"What do you mean? I broke your heart?", I asked.

"Well, you did break up with me without a good reason.", he claimed.

"Bill, we should really-", Kill tried again.

"Kill, can you please be quiet? I never broke up with you, Bill...You're the one who broke up.", I sniffed.

Oh god, no! No crying.

"Why would I do that? I loved you! Heck, I was going to propose!", he cried out.

Now Kill started slowly walking away, but Bill grabbed him by magic and yanked him back.

"Do you know something we don't?", he asked.

"No, no, not at all.", Kill lied.

Kill was extraordinarily talented, especially when it came to shape-shifting...

"Kill? You did not break us up, did you? A friend wouldn't have done that.", I asked.

"Oh, it was for your best! You're mirror demons! You should make each other weaker, to gain power!", he huffed. Tears rolled down my cheeks.

I felt like I was choking.

The deal I made with the Gleefulls, it was out of desperation! I thought Jeremiah Gleefull loved me! I won the independence war for them, but after that he started growing cold and going mad with power.

I stood up and ran away again.
