Chapter 1

Your POV

I floated around my 'garden' as I watched the scenery continue on its cycle. My garden consist of a medium sized pond, a small waterfall from the small hill by the side, a fallen log to sit at, some greenery of course, some fireflies, a huge bushy oak tree that I sleep in with a flat-ish trunk at the top where the limb of the branches reach out that's covered by the leaves outside the crown, Willow trees around the area, and lastly, some bones sticking out from the animals and demons who died by mines' and Alastor's hands.. And probably his appetite.

Oh! I almost forgot! I'm a garden demon, that doesn't sound much but I am actually one of the strongest demons around for I don't just take life, I can actually create life! Well, on plants and a small animal here and there if I trully wanted to.

I have (H/l) (H/c). My (E/c) glows in the dark, and my sharp teeth always in a mischievous smile. My (S/c) in a (D/f/c)-ish hue with my (F/f(fav. flower)) glowing (F/c), growing randomly around the crown base of my head that indicates that I'm well and alive.. Sort of.

I have vines that sprouts from my back that I use as either extra arms, weapons, or just a clothing design. I wore a sleeveless V-neck victorian-ish puffy dress that reach just above my knees with like I said before, my vines wrapped around the waist and torso in a spiral as a design. I have a cropped hood with holes over where the shoulder would be on top of that just because I simply adore hoods. I'm barefooted since I have no need to step foot on the ground if I can just float around.

Not that I can fly, I can just simply float above ground. My maximum height was fifteen feet off the ground. Have I told you that I smell like roses, lily, lavender and stream water 24/7 too? Pretty neat huh?

Anyway, enough about me, not that I can write a whole novel book about it, but let's go back as to where we were.

Alastor just went to go to the city to look at some-who-knows-what-thing leaving me all alone. Eh who cares, I can just roam around, maybe go around the border of the forest to snipe down some nearby demons for fertilizer or somethin. I don't know, but I am seriously bored.

As I was braiding the long grass that I picked earlier, I heard a crash just outside the border, and as the curious demon I am, I went to investigate.

I hid on top of a tree as I scanned the area. There by the tall grass sat a snake demon rubbing his head in annoyance with scratches, dirt and bruises all around his body and tattered suit and top hat. Oddly enough, the hat looks just as annoyed as him.

He have a long black hair..? That's yellow inside. His eyes were red with a black slit as his pupil. He seems to have a black body with yellow for his snakey tummy side. He have a top suit with small yellow stripes going down and an eye on his chest. That and many more eyes on his... Uhh.. Err.. Snake body? Seriously, can he see out of those? Does it hurt when he slither around? What?

You didn't judge his appearance, you were merely confused and curious.

You got out of your small confused trance as you saw him slowly slithering towards yours and Al's domain, grumbling something about 'getting back that bitch' and 'getting rid of her, breaking her bones and chopping her limbs to pieces' or something.

You decided to follow because he could be a friend or another one of your fertilizer for your pretty garden.

As he slithered further in to the forest, he seemed to suddenly stop and then proceeded to look around him.

It took him at least a minute before he hesitantly continued slithering.

He continued for a while until he found one of the Willow trees by my garden and sat down under it to rest, not seeing the beautiful garden by the back because of the trees thats blocking the view.

'O my gardenia, is this fate telling me something!? ... Should I kill him now?? Oooh but he looks so interesting!' I thought excitedly as more F/f blooms and glows brighter around my head in excitement, my vines behind me twitching.

'Maybe I should let him live...' I thought with a nod.

I smiled brightly and continued to watch him.

Sir Pentious' POV

'Damn that woman!' I thought angrily as I slithered in to the forest.

I breathed in through my nonexistent nose and my forked tongue flicked out in a exhaling manner, only realizing that the forest somehow smells like roses, lavander, lily, and.... Stream water..? But I don't hear any stream around.

I stopped for a sec to look around. I feel suspicious... Like someone or something is watching me but found nothing.

'Maybe I'm just imagining things... It's been a long day after all' I tried reassuring myself as I hesitantly continued.

I found myself a small Willow tree and sat underneath it.

'But that can't be right... Imagining scent is not possible unless I saw a picture or something and made myself imagine its smell.' I thought.

I flicked my tongue out once again and there it was, the scent's still here. Its a little faint, as if it was far away, I wouldn't have notice such faint smell if I hadn't flicked my tongue out.

'It must be a flower field with a stream by it then.'

'But that sounds ridiculous! This is hell for Lucifer's sake! I do smell a body of water somewhere tho... Ah! Whatever! I just need to rest!' I shook my head and coiled, finally giving out the effort to rest.

It took some time, but my consciousness finally slipped away as I fell into slumber.

~~~~~~~~~~

First chapter done! The picture above is what your dress supposed to look like. I used my persona/me as a model of the dress and the vines behind her. I actually researched some of the details in the story like the tree parts, snake tongue flicking, etc.

Hope you enjoyed it! But anyway, I know that the picture above is a little blurry so here's the more better resolution looking one. :3

Sorry if it looks anime-ish(I've been saying 'ish' for quite sometime now here XD) that's just my art style. Plus I'm not that good yet with cartoon style but I'm getting there :3

Also, I forgot to put the 'shoulder holes' thingy so just imagine it XD
