《Chapter 1: The devil's flower shop》

《San P.O.V》

I'be gone by many names.
To some, I am Satan. To others, Lucifer. My personal favourite? Diablo! Thats a great one! Honestly, who ever came up with that one, kudos to you!
All names refer to the same being. The all mighty king of the underworld. Which, so happens to be me.
I'm the eighth in my lineage to take on these titles. It was my mother before I, her father before and so on. As such, I spent the last few centuries following their routine and habits. Something that, after following for so long, became lack luster and unenjoyable. The tortures, boring. The reaping, exhausting. The weekly meetings with the goodie-two-shoes upstairs, draining. I just couldn't find myself loving my job like I use to. I needed a change in my life. I needed to do something spontaneous that will brighten up my life a little. So I thought up a brilliant idea.

"You...You what!?" Shouted my advisor, Seonghwa, who was in complete shock over my plan.
I hummed as I packed my bags, walking around the baffled man standing in the middle of my room. "You heard me! I want to move to the human world and open up an exotic flower shop.~" I replied, turning towards Seonghwa giving him a wiggle of my fingers in response. Kinda like jazz hands, or maybe spirit fingers? Oh well! I turned back around and continued packing. "But it doesn't have to be exotic. Regular flowers are cool as well."
"My lord," Seonghwa started wearily. I looked back over my shoulder to meet his gaze. His hands were shaking as they folded together, looking me in the with a worried expression. "Y-You can't possibly think this is a good idea? What about your duties? How do you plan to run the kingdom and run a business as well? What if a human finds out!? We can't have that!!"

Turning once again, I placed my hands on my hips and gave Seonghwa a little smirk. "I won't be doing this alone. I'll bring two of my best demons with me! To help me run the place. All while I still look after any pressing matters I need to face for here. Any minor issues I am sure you can look after while I'm away."
"Me!?" My advisor yelped. "I can't rule in your place! I... It's been so long!"
"I just figured, since you did such an amazing job with running the kingdom while I was young, as well as raising me and keeping me in line. I just assumed you'd be the best fit. " I swung an arm around his shulder, using my other hand to pat his chest. He struggled to find the words to answer with, but ultimately gave up. Seonghwa gave out a long sigh and ran his fingers through his dark hair.
"You have a point... I guess I did manage once before, why not now?..."
"Great! I leave everything in your care then!" I snapped my fingers and a large portal opened up behind me. I pulled away, grabbing my bags and throwing them through "I'll be in touch! Mingi and Yunho should already there setting up shop!~" I walked through, listening to the fade out of a stressed advisor behind me.

I got through to the otherside, where right there in front of me stood an old rundown building. It was two stories tall, the bottom part was a closed down shop with stairs on the side of the building that led to the top level. Leading to an apartment for me to reside in. Looking around, I couldn't see my two demonic companions anywhere. Not surprising really, I half expected this.
With one more look at the building, I gave it a small nod of approval and walked closer. Definitely a work in progress, but nothing I couldn't handle, I'm the king of the underworld after all!
I stopped at the front doors and gave a small snap of my fingers, transforming the building into a elegant flower shop. It sparkled and shined with a bit of a vintage flare to it. Flowers and shrubs decorated the outside and vines arched around the doorway with little flowers blooming around them.
As soon as I walked inside, I was instantly hit with an array of beautiful scents. Bright colors surrounded the large room. So many different kinds of flowers and plant life, I couldn't help but be in awe. I really outdone myself this time.

"What happened here?" Rang a deep voice from behind me. I snapped out of my little thought bubble and looked back at the two lanky men standing in the doorway.
"I was wondering where you both went! I was so worried." I exclaim in a sarcastic tone. You see, these were the 'best demons' I mentioned earlier. The two who were suppose to be setting things up for me before I arrived.
"Look, boss, we just went on break." Said one of the men. He was tall and slim with bright red hair and very sharp features. His name, Mingi. The other shrugged his broad shoulders and nodded along. This man was a bit taller and had dark brown hair, with softer features that resembled a puppy. His name, Yunho. I eyed the two up and down, placing both my hands on my hips. I honesty expected this much of them. Two demons trapped in a constant cycle of torturing day in and out would jump at the opportunity to explore the human world when given the chance. I wasn't mad in the slightest. But did that stop me from having a little fun with them? No. Not at all.

"On BrEaK" I mocked. "Do you have any idea what I do to demons that disobey my direct orders? Hmm...? One thousand years of torture!" I started walking towards the two in slow steps. Fear built in their faces as they froze on the spot. Hilarious! "Not just any kind of torture, no. A thousand years of the first twenty minutes of dirty dancing on repeat!"
"No!! Anything but that!" Yunho pleaded. He took Mingi by his shoulders, shaking him frantically as the red head turned a bright shade of green. A color that nicely complimented his hair, might I add. "Please! Forgive us! If not us both then at least me. This was all Mingi's idea to begin with."
"What do you mean!?" Mingi shouted. "You heard bells from an icecream truck and bolted out the door!" The two broke out into a verbal argument, shouting back and forth at each other. I figured, at this point, it was time to stop.
"Okay, okay, calm down. Look, I was just playing!" The two went quiet, turning to me. Both with unimpressed expressions plastered on their faces. "Your majesty, with all do respect, you're a dick." The red head commented, causing me to laugh loudly. "Your highness, why would you do that!? We were actually horrified!" Yunho added.
"Firstly, It's always fun seeing you both quiver in fear. Secondly, please don't call me that." Wiping my tears from laughing, I stood up straight with a smile on my face. "On earth, call me San."
"San?.. As in..." Mingi made a shape of a mountain with his arms. I nodded proudly, putting my hands together. "Do you like it? I spent hours picking it out!"
"It's terrible." They said in near unison. I nodded my head and placed my hands on each shoulder of the two in front of me, giving them little pats. "A thousand years..." It only took those three words to strike fear into the boys. "I think I'll go sort out the roses." Yunho said, hurrying away. "Wait for me!" Mingi yelled, following behind quickly. I couldn't help but chuckle.

I happened to like the name, despite what they thought. It was the first name I got to choose myself. They may not appreciate it like I do, but I know someone will come around who does appreciates it...
