Flash back from a long time ago.

So... I kinda changed my mind. This a flash back from a couple of Assiah years ago but a couple of hundreds in Gehenna has passed since then.
---------------------------------------------------------

Malika was in Assiah for a while now. She liked this world, it was very funny.
For example: she often laughed of the various ways the humans found to occupate themselves. Like this place she found the other day: it was full of dead or sick humans! When she found the place, she laughed hard for two whole minutes. The humans were so bored that they even started to take care of their weak population! They must have been pretty bored... And their wasn't only one of those buildings, she learned, their was at least a thousand all over Japan! She knew, she tried to count the exact number but she got bored in the middle of it and forgot the number while she went to "buy" ice cream. (Samael hadn't given her any allowance, though it didn't matter since she didn't really need any... What can a poor human cashier do to keep a demon king from taking what they want?)

While we're on the subject, that was one of the funniest thing about this world yet. Food. Soon after she came to this world, Malika found that the humans ate a lot. Now, that wouldn't be funny if it wasn't for the food they ate. The humans had come up with thousands and thousands of ways to arrange the same limited ingredients they had to make different kind of food. And it lead their lives, had she come to understand.

While she was observing the life of a human, she found that the human got very sad if they only ate the same food for a long period of time. Some demons understood that, like ukabuck, he'd understood that he could live in a human's house for a very long time and they would let him be if only he gave them food. "Intelligent little creatures, we, demons are..." Malika thought, smiling widely.

So it went without saying that she very much liked being in Assiah right now. She did miss Gehenna a little bit but only for certain little things. Like fighting against huge demons after breakfast, the smell of blood when she passed by her father's throne room, executing servants... Yes, she definitely missed the place she grew up in a little bit and would be happy to go back when Assiah wouldn't be entertaining anymore.

As she was thinking that, something cold landed on her cheek. It had been pretty cold outside lately, especially since she traveled up north following a human girl but she never experienced that before... She looked up and saw little white things falling from the sky. At first she thought it was ash as it happened sometimes in Gehenna that little particles of ash floated around when a volcano erupted close to her location. But those weren't it. She extended a hand and let one of the white particle land on it. It was cold. Ash wasn't cold. That couldn't be ash! Malika didn't understand. What were those things?

She pulled out a pink gadget from her pocket. Amaimon had given it to her not long ago. He said he'd tell Samael he'd lost it. She asked him what it was and how it worked but he only answered "You press the button and you talk and you can talk to others that are elsewhere" Malika didn't push it since he probably was introduced to it that way and never seeked any other answers as to what it was... After a little bit of research she found out that the pink gadget was called a "cellular phone" and that it was working by converting the voice of the speaker into an electrical signal, which was then transmitted via radio waves to the nearest cell tower. The network of cell towers then relayed the radio wave to the other cell phone, which converted it to an electrical signal and then back to sound again. Which was how you could communicate to an other people very far from you...

She pressed the button that she guessed was supposed to enable her to talk to Amaimon. She hadn't been told much about how this cellular thingy worked. Not more then what Amaimon had told her some days ago but, after examining it for a bit she had already figured out mostly how to make it work. She learned out of that experience that the humans were so dumb that they had to make their gadgets very easy to use to be sure to be able to use them.

Not long after she'd pressed the button, the blank voice of Amaimon resonated in her hear. "Samael. I know I wasn't supposed to kill those exorcist. I could give you new ones if you want? I have plenty of useless servants at home." The demon king of logic giggled at that. It was obvious that Samael would never agree to those terms. Not here at least. In Gehenna it was pretty normal for a demon king or a high-ranking demon that killed another's servant to replace it with one of his owns to avoid a fight they knew they would loose. But Amaimon didn't have exorcist as servants and Samael was quite resentfull. He would punish Amaimon for disobeying him even if he was somehow able to replace those exorcists that were dead.

"In trouble big brother?" She knowingly asked. "Yes." Amaimon answered, emotionless. "Well that wasn't gonna work with Samael. Good try though." She amusingly informed him.

"Oh." Amaimon just said back. "Oh, poor, poor big brother," Malika taunted, "you're kind of clueless, aren't you?" She said provoking him. "That wasn't nice, I'm coming over." Amaimon answered as emotionless as ever before hanging up.

-My plan worked perfectly, didnt even have to think of insults to provoke him further, he instantly took the bate...- Malika thought with a little laugh.

Malika waited, still wondering about the cold ash that was falling from the sky, watching it slowly falling down until it hit the ground bellow and quickly disappear leaving a wet trace behind. She picked up a sound far away from her, a tree which was moving with the wind was abnormally exuberant with its swinging. Suddenly, Malika quickly jumped off the roof top that she was standing on onto an other one. Nearly a second after a green mass went down on the first building causing a big explosion and the complete destruction of the building in question probably killing a handful of humans.

"Oh oh brother, I know you wanted to give me a hug but there was no need to kill those humans. You could have just asked me you know?" The pink haired girl said with a grin. "I missed?" Amaimon said getting up and taking the debrits off of his clothes. The demon king of earth was getting ready to jump again on his sister for one of their friendly brawl but a high pitched ring tone prevented him from doing so. "Hello big brother." Malika didn't even try to listen in, she already knew exactly what was being said on the other line. "Yes, that was me but I wasn't meaning to destroy it." "..." "Yes, I know some humans were killed, that wasn't part of my game." "!!!!!!" "Stop screaming big brother I'll get out of here before they see me." "!!!..." "No, it was because I was playing with Malika." "..." "Okay, I'll tell her but I don't know if she will listen to me." "..." "Okay, I'll tell her." "..." "Okay." And the demon king of earth hung up at that.

"So what do you have to tell me?" Malika asked with her signature Cheshire grin. "Big brother is very angry." Amaimon replied. "Oh, really?" The demon girl innocently replied. "Yes," Amaimon blinked "he said that we have to get out of here before the exorcists see us and get suspicious of him." Malika pouted "What!? I was looking forward to fighting some exorcists!" She whined. "But big brother said..." "I don't care what he said! He ain't no boss of me! I can do what I want and what can he do about it? Nothing! 'Cause I'm more powerful!" She yelled angrily, the way a child would throw a tantrum in the supermarket. "Big brother said that he would how you a favor." Amaimon said as impassible as ever. The tantrum stopped right there like on hold.

Malika hadn't thought that that was the way things would turn out. She did consider it but it was very unlikely and she had quickly dismissed it as much as she loved the possibility that it could happen. One of Samael's favors would be very useful in one of her future games... "Okay, let's go then."

And so, Malika and Amaimon took off together. "Oh, i wanted to ask you, what are those things falling from the sky?" Malika asked while jumping from tree to tree. "That's snow."
