A Sheep Among Demons

Lesson Two Chapter Twelve - The Pact (2)

Beelzebub got out of my personal space and let out a heavy sigh, rubbing his neck. ". . . You know what? This isn't any of your business, human. I'm leaving. I've already eaten everything there was in the refrigerator now anyway. I'm pretty sure Lucifer is hiding a poisoned apple in the desk in the study. . ." Beelzebub finally left the kitchen, his growling stomach disappearing the farther he walked away, leaving me alone in the kitchen with my confusing thoughts.

Before I could even try to have time to understand my thoughts I could hear someone trying to catch my attention. This caused me to look around with a confused expression, wondering where it was coming from. "Is that you, God. . .?" I couldn't help but mumble that out, even if I cringe at how stupid that was.

"Seriously? No! Over here! Look!" Following where the voice was coming from I could see Levi hiding behind the wall. He was looking around nervously making sure that there wasn't anyone else coming.

"What are you doing hiding there?" I couldn't help but raise my eyebrow at how stupid he currently looks, hiding behind the wall like a child hiding from there parents because they are awake past their bedtime.

"What do you think? Beel was just in here! I can't have him find me with you, now can I?" Levi finally came from behind the wall and walked closer to me after he was sure no one else was coming. "So, it's really true, right? Lucifer definitely used the word "frozen"? In that case, it could only be hidden in here." Levi went to the freezer part of the fridge and I could only raise my eyebrow confused at that reasoning.

"In the freezer? Seriously?" I couldn't hide the disbelief in my voice as Levi opened the freezer and started looking through it, not bothering to acknowledge my disbelief at his assumption.

"Hmm. . . all I see is a bunch of ice inside. . . Oh wait, look! It's the ice cream Satan hid from Beel about a century ago. I totally forgot about that. Heh, I'm not about to tell him, though. It'd spoil the joke. He'll probably figure it out in another 2000 years or so, I'd say. . . Wait a second. There's something else there behind the ice." Reaching into the freezer, Levi pulls out what I assume is Mammon's credit card. I was looking at it in disbelief, finding out Lucifer seriously put his card in the freezer, no joke.

"Found it! Lucifer wasn't lying. It really IS frozen!" Levi was looking at it happily but it grew tense as he held what I assume was a block of heavy ice. "Ugh, it's super heavy! And big, too! I'm gonna put it in the microwave and thaw it. Let's see, I guess about two minutes on auto should do the trick. Now, I'll hit the start button and let the defrosting begin!" I didn't know what I should feel as I watched Levi seriously put the frozen credit card in the microwave, wondering if I should speak up because I have a feeling that microwaving a frozen credit card can't be good at all.

"What's with all the racket, you two?" I felt my heart jump as Mammon appeared in the kitchen. I didn't know what I should say to him as his credit card was currently in the microwave. ". . .HEY, wait a minute! There in the microwave. . .That looks like Goldie, my credit card! The one thing more important to me than life itself. . .!" Mammon's eyes practically looked like it was shining as he stared at the card currently in the microwave.

"Get it outta there before the microwave demagnetizes it and makes it useless!" I couldn't help but agree with Mammon on that, we could have just melted it by leaving it out in a hot area for the night.

"Ooh, didn't think of that. Better stop the defrost cycle, I guess!" Levi went to stop the defrost cycle that was currently happening. I didn't want to say anything about it being common sense, knowing if you microwave anything that isn't exactly for the microwave could cause pretty bad damage.

"Levi, you idiot! How could you do somethin' so stupid?! You're dumb as a stump, you know that?!" Mammon just went on to insult Levi who just smiled at him, while putting Mammon credit card in direct sight of him.
