A Game Of Logic (A Blue Exorcist Fanfic)

Chapter 3

Malika is the youngest of the 9 children of Satan. She is the demon king of logic and she defied her element from the moment she was born. Seeing that she is the youngest, it is quite illogical that she'd posses such a powerful gift. Being the demon king of logic implies that she can alter it to her need and mood. That power is crucial since everything run by logic: Time, light, relationships, thoughts, our very bodies and molecules are running by the same logic that she can control. We are not quite sure of what she is capable of since we've never encountered her yet but we are sure that her powers are great. -A guide for exorcism, Demons and Demon kings- How to recognize them.-

Malika opened her eyes and looked around her. She was in a quite eccentric red and dark purple room. Striped yellow sofas, golden chandeliers and abstract paintings completed the decorations. She was never in Assiah before, however, the room felt familiar somehow. It was also completely different from what she had seen in her entire life. The colors were brighter, the sensations softer, even the air felt colder and she couldn't smell any blood close from where she was, which was very rare in Gehena.

Suddenly, Malika heard a small growl behind her. She turned around to see her older brother Samael siting behind a big desk and looking at her with displeased eyes. Mockingly, the younger rose an eyebrow at him. "Hello Samael, how are you doin?" "..." Samael didn't answer, he just stared at her with discontentment in his eyes. "What's the matter? You're not happy to see your dear sister, after all that time?" The young demon said feigning sadness and pretending to cry, her face in her hands. "Why are you here Malika? I'm sure you already know why I am not pleased by your presence." Muttered the funny looking demon king of time. Malika sent her brother a look from between her fingers. "Not even a hello?" He didn't answer, he just frowned.

He seems to be in one of his legendary serious mood. She sighed, a disappointed look on her face. If it's the way he wanna play, then fine, I'll go away to start my game somewhere else until he regains a more pleasant mood. "Fine, you don't seem to be in the mood to play with me right now so I'll go away." She turned her heels and was about to open the window to go out when the sudden growl coming from her brother made her hold her step. "Before that, I wan't to know why you're here." He said, sounding pissed. "Right!'' She exclaimed brightly. Malika pranced over to where her big brother was and stood very straight before him, in the same position that child would take while presenting proudly to their parents the drawing they made for them in daycare. ''With all that is going on with these new brothers of ours, everyone is so busy that no one wants to play with me!'' Malika explained, frowning with a pout. ''I was really bored since Astaroth was sent in Assiah by father, Iblis was to busy planning to kill Rin to entertain me and Amaimon was called here by you for one of your games.'' She continued with an accusing glare at Mephisto. ''I never get invited to these things and father wouldn't give me anything interesting to do, so I decided to create my own game!" she explained, smiling wide, proud of her idea. "Do you intend to involve Rin in your new game?" Malika stopped for a minute, thinking.

Well, it is kind of the point to play with our new brother: he lives here and I heard so much about him lately, it would be a shame to miss on such an opportunity. On the other hand, Samael will certainly not be pleased by that and there is a 98% chance that Rin is part of his game too and if so, there is a great chance that it will make him mad if I want to play with him, which would be fun. I also want get to see the funny face he makes when he is mad. "Most certainly." She answered with a grin. My... Looks like this statement a annoys him more than it's making him mad. How boring... Since he couldn't really prevent his sister from playing with their baby brother, he pouted a little but didn't object. "Well, you'll have to share him with Amaimon. Do you intent to harm him?" Malika stopped to think about the question for a minute yet again, before answering him. ''I am not sure. It is possible but I do not intend to harm him for now.'' His expression instantly became warmer. "Well then, their shouldn't be any problem!" Malika started to grin wide, which showed her sharp teeth that were so very different from the ones of her brothers who all had only their canine that were sharp whilst hers were all extremely sharp. "Yaaaaaaaaay! You're not mad anymore!" She ran over at him and hugged him tight. He looked slightly distraught for a moment but he then started smiling. She then walked happily towards the window and jumped out cheerfully.

Mephisto was left alone in his office, deep in thoughts. So deep in fact, that he didn't notice that the paperwork he just organized was scattered around the room, flying everywhere because of the wind coming in from the open window. ''Let's just hope you don't cause a commotion.'' he thought out loud.
