The Ambassador

Ch. 5: Trust Issues

(Y/n)'s mom called her all day, almost non-stop. She didn't make it go on forever but left a voicemail until it was full. During all these calls (Y/n) wondered around the woods experimenting with her staff. This went on until the late evening.

She had figured out that Anti could remain physical if the staff stayed connected to the ground which included dragging it across as they walked. together. He enjoyed not having to stand still as a statue.

Anti talked to her about the demon world VS their reality. He talked about Jacksepticeye, his human, and the visits he often made to him. Everyone had a demon that looked like them, everyone should at least. There are exceptions to this, if a demon dies, or if they're a protector.

The demon realm is a much harsher environment that exists in the same location just on different planes of existence. (Y/n) had a difficult time understanding, even hearing it from her Mia years back didn't help.

In the physical form, with her staff, he could do a lot more. His energy came directly from her, the only problem was she didn't know how to control how much energy he had which drained her.

"Ye need to get a grip on that." Anti stopped with (Y/n).

She leaned against a tree taking deep breaths. "I haven't eaten all day or drank anything, I'm just dehydrated and whatnot."

He rolled his eyes, "Sure."

Her phone began to ring again in her pocket. It was obviously Olivia.

"Yer not going to answer that." Anti walked closer to her. "And I'm not askin'."

"I liked it better when you didn't talk." (Y/n) pulled out her phone and stared at the contact 'Mom'.

With a deep breath, she looked up at Anti then answered her phone. This earned (Y/n) an eye roll.

"Hello?"

"(Y/n)?"

"That's me, hi mom."

"Where are you?"

(Y/n) sat on the ground leaning against the tree behind her, "Don't worry about it."

"That'a girl!" Anti cheered.

"Shhhh!" Her finger moved to her lips to silence the demon.

"(Y/n)? Are you there?"

"Yes, mom, I'm here."

"You need to come home now. Please. I've been so worried about you." Her voice shook.

"Depends. Are you going to try and kill Anti?"

"No."

"You're lying."

Olivia ignored her words and began to beg her to come home. It came to the point where she started to cry over the phone. (Y/n) had almost forgotten that her father had just died not too long ago. She looked up at Anti again who wasn't even looking at her anymore.

"Fine. I'll come home. On one exception."

"What is it?"

"Mia can't know I'm home."

There was a pause on the phone. "Alright, I won't say a word."

"Good. I'll be home shortly."

(Y/n) hung up her phone and stood up from the dirt floor. She threw her phone into her back pocket and stretched out her arms, one at a time.

"Ye can't be serious, Lass." Anti crossed his arms. "Ye really think she's going to listen to you?"

"No, I don't. Which is why you need to leave."
