It had been an hour after that whole thing. Kiara peeked into her room multiple times within that one hour to find that he was still there.
"What do I do? What do I say" she thought to herself
"You know you can just talk to me" Pluto said from the other room.
"How did he hear that WHAT YOU CAN READ MY MIND" she thought again
"Yes I can and I can also read that you're tired of studying! Come talk to me! I'm wanna at least do that before I get too weak and have to go back" he said.
She walked up to the door frame of her bedroom.
"Get too weak?" she questioned
"Yes! The over-world weakens demons, and we have to go back to recharge"
She shuffled in toward him and sat at the edge of her bed
"So.. then what would you like to do, Pluto?"
"Hey that rhymed!" He said with enthusiasm "I learned the word Planet today. Apparently you live on a planet and there is a planet named after me! The god of the underworld"
"Slow your roll 'god'" she scoffed "Pluto isn't considered a planet anymore"
He snapped his fingers and made her mouth disappear. She began grunting and freaking out.
"I don't appreciate your tone sweetheart, I came here to spend time with you, you don't have to mock me"
She widened her eyes and looked at him for a while until finally she apologized with her eyes. He snapped his fingers once again and her mouth appeared back on her face. She gasped for air.
"Is there anything you can't do?" she said surprised
"I cannot swim" he said very bluntly
She scooted closer to him. And looked him up and down.
"Do you think I could ask some questions about you"
He shrugged his shoulders.
"Go ahead"
"How old are you?"
"Seven billion years old"
"How were you born?"
"A seed was planted and created a tree with three branches. Two of my siblings and I. I had to kill them"
She looked at him in shock.
"ok moving on... where exactly do you live"
"In a black void, I don't really live anywhere. I kind of travel space and time and you happened to be in this timeline"
"Can you die?"
"No I was never really alive"
"Are you evil"
"Define evil? Because it is subjective. There is no good or bad, no right or wrong. Where I'm from there are no morals. Usually what I say goes" he explained "but to you probably"
"What do you do when you're not fucking with humans"
"Rule the underworld, talk to my friends... yes I have friends. Come visit you"
"Alright sir, why did you choose me? Why am I your victim"
"I wouldn't say you're my victim, I'm not trying to hurt you or anything. Sometimes it's nice to have company other than demons. So I found someone who I didn't want to terrorize, and usually making people feel good is a nice way to start"
"So you've done this to others?" She looked disappointed
"No no! It was only advice I got from my friends" he stumbled over his words. "I genuinely wouldn't want to hurt you"
He leaned forward and looked at her.
"I would ask about you, but I've already read your mind"
Kiara continues asking him stuff and Pluto was nothing but honest. He didn't have much to hide and even if he did it would be for a reason.
