"WRONG!"

"Coyote?" Black's voice was extremely prominent as they turned around to stare at the demon. I guess it was obvious that Ebony would go quiet whenever she hears even Coy's voice.
"Where's Abyss?" I growled, clutching onto the sword that Coyote gave me before, my knuckles going white.
"Trapped in rocks currently. I manipulated the ground around her so it's almost impossible for her to get out." He replied, almost seeming happy with himself-
"Okay I'm going to go and talk to her th-"
"Are you stupid? You seriously think just rocks would hold a half demon half angel? You saw how strong she is." Ebony's voice surfaced, and the expression of their face became disgusted, or so it seemed
"Ebony if he did it right it could. Don't jump to conclusions just because it's Coyote."
"Hmph."

I was almost surprised yet again when Ebony's disagreement didn't cause them to split yet again. There was something making her hold onto the fusion. I could tell. Yet I didn't say anything.

"As I was saying before I was interrupted- I'm going to talk to her." I spoke, looking to Coyote "take me to her. Black and Ebony can stay here to make sure Ralph doesn't break out."
"Jesus. The two empresses of the underworld became guards real quick." I heard Black chuckling to which one of their hands gave me a thumbs up as I walked with Coyote to the massive mound that was holding Abyss still. Her visage somewhat calm, a ghastly smile on her face and her blood red eyes piercing through me.

"And what could a human possibly want?" She hissed, yet with a chuckle afterward. It almost seemed like she was trying to be intimidating, yet failing.
"How did you control him?" I asked bluntly. I saw no reason to beat around the bush.
She laughed "Well obviously not by the brain.. Since he doesn't have one!"
I growled, and Coyote put a hand on my shoulder,

Dude calm down. She's just toying with you. It's clear to me that she has this fascination with human emotions.

I nodded at him and put on a straight face.
"I asked you a question. You're in no place to argue."
"I wasn't arguing dear- just making myself laugh."
That grin. It was almost like Black's when I first met her. A cunning smile, it told me that she always had a plan.. That nothing would evade her from completing it.
"Okay. I'm changing my question. What do you want?"
"God." She sighed, "I thought that was obvious. I've only said it a million times. I want Ebony."
I rolled my eyes "Oh, and by her reaction that she did 'a million times' I thought it was obvious she doesn't want you."
Growling, she lowered her eyebrows at me "I took over his memory chip- to make him only see the bad things she did to him.." looking away, she then looked back at me and smiled contemptuously. "There was another one too. But I don't remember the name of it. All I know is that it made me able to control his every move, almost like a remote control car or something crazy cool."
Coyote butted in "So what you're saying is Abyss, you basically messed with his memory, then turned him into a doll for your games of getting a girl who never had feelings for you?"
She stayed silent, the grin rushing off of her face. I slammed my left fist onto the rocks that held her, roaring
"TELL ME HOW I CAN FIX HIM."
Yet she almost gave me a sympathetic look.

"I don't know."

She looked at me, dead in the eyes without a smile in sight.

"I don't know."

My right hand, that was still gripping the sword, itched to swing.. Yet the sword fell onto the floor with a clatter, along with myself, tears falling out of my eyes.

But no sound escaped me.

Black's Pov
We were still fused. Even though my energy levels were completely fine. She didn't want to split, yet, I didn't know why. I couldn't read her thoughts. They were too jumbled.
We didn't speak out loud. There was no point.

Ebony.. What's going on with you?

What do you mean?

I'm physically fine now. Yet we're still fused?

Is there a problem with that?

Not at all.. But I can sense something's wrong Eb.

It's fine. You're okay now, we got Ralph,

Abyss is captured and Wentworth and Coyote are safe. What could I be worried about?

It's just- you seem like you desperately don't want to split. Like you're holding onto us.

I just-

Yes?

I don't want to be apart from you right now. That's all.

Any other day, I would've thought that was because she loved me- yet.. It felt cold.. Like she was trying to figure out if I'd done something..

Okay.
