Angel rushed up to her room, and saw a new paper next to her pen. Her heart was racing. This was perfect. The perfect way to stop everything from litterally going to hell. But she had to be smart, she had to make sure nothing could ruin her plan.

"Cups. Mugs. I hope to God you see this before it's too late. King dice is taking me out of the casino tonight and I don't know where to but we leave here at 7 pm. If you make it in time you can follow us, maybe signal me and I can slip away for a minute. If not then I'll try and write you again when we come back and see if I can see a way of sneaking you in from the outside. I just need you to not, and I mean NOT attack king dice when we leave the casino. I hope to see you tonight boys. Hug Elder Kettle for me and let him know I'm safe." She kissed the page at the bottom, leaving a lipstick mark in pink and she tied the letter up and off it went, leaving angel to pray.

When 7 rolled around angel stepped into the loby wearing a purple dress with a black lace cartigan and black dice earrings. Piroetta had come up and dressed her up while she had been waiting for the hours to tick by.

Dice nearly fell back as he saw her and he smiled, his purple eyes turning to hearts again like before. "Well helllooo darlin." He said as he reached out and took her hand, bringing it to his lips and kissing the top. "You ready for our night out?" He asked.
She took his arm, blushing a bit and nodded. "As I'll ever be." She was nervous for so many reasons and she only prayed it didn't show on her face.

As the door opened and they stepped into the cool night air she half expected to see an army of her friends ready to beat dice senseless but... no. So either the boys got her message and were actually listening to her or no one knew she was even there.
"So... where are we going?"
"I thought we would go to beppis carnival." He said looking down at her with a smile. It seemed like something she might enjoy so it was worth a shot.
Her eyes lit up and she nodded. "I love the carnival! Beppi and I are good friends!" She said excitedly as they walked and dice beamed, happy to see her so excited.
"Well good. Should be fun then." He said as he lead the way to the next isle down, crossing through the die house he used to harass her brothers in all those years ago.

They walked into the carnival and she beamed brightly as she looked around. "What should we do first dicey?" She asked, looking up at him like a child.
"Dicey?" He mused, booping her nose with a smirk and she blushed and looked down.
"Sorry... King dice..."
He chuckled and tickled her under her chin to make her smile again, tilting her head to look at him, "as long as you're smiling like that when you say it you can call me dicey." He told her.
She batter her eyelashes at him and leaned up to kiss his nose. "Dicey..." She mused playfully with a smirk.
Now it was dice'sturn to blush. This woman...was gonna kill him with that smile of hers alone. "Lets uh.... Let's get you a snack." He said as he looked away from, trying to hide the blush while she giggled away on his arm and he lead her over to a snack stand. "See anything you'd like?" He asked.
She inspected the menus and smiled, "I really like the cotton candy clowns here..." She said smiling shyly at him.
He nodded and grabbed his wallet from his packet. "Wait here. I'll go get you one." He said as he went around the stand to get in line.
She watched him go with a blush and a smile on her face, her eyes shaped like hearts until she was knocked back into reality by a small pebble hitting the side of her head and she turned to see cuphead and Mugman in a small ally between two games and her eyes lit up like stars and she made sure dice wasn't watching before rushing over and the boys pulled her into their arms. "Angel!" They cried as they hugged their sister.
Tears filled her eyes as she pressed her face against Mugman shoulder and she pulled back and placed a hand on each of their cheeks. "I'm so happy to see you guys. I missed you so much! How's elder kettle? Is he ok?" She asked, worried for her guardians health.
"He's fine, he's just worried about you. He was so happy when we showed him your first letter though." Cuphead said.
"Yeah, and even more so with the one earlier. He wanted to come but we didn't want to make a scene since you said you didn't want us attacking dice right out the gate." Mugman added.
She nodded, "yes and thank you for listening to me. Look I can't talk long but you guys have got to call off everyone you're getting to help get me out!"
"What? Why?" The boys cried
"Because good people are gonna get hurt for no reason! Boys! The devil has my soul in his hands! If he had half a mind to he could snap his fingers and I'd fall dead right where I stand! What do you think he's gonna do when a group of you and our friends burst in to try and take me away! The devil is like a toddler with a toy right now! Letting me go has to be his idea!"
"Are you saying you want to stay there?" Mugman asked, his hands up in the air.
"Of course not! I want to go home! I tried to get him to let me but he wouldn't go for it! A date night with dice on the town was the most I could manage..."
"Date?!" Cuphead said shocked. "You mean he wanted to bring you out on a date? He's not just like... escorting you to make sure you don't run?"
"No... he... Look we were playing poker and a date with me was part of the wager and..."
"Did you want to come?" Mugman chimmed
"Well I mean i..."
"Have they hurt you sis?" Cuphead added quickly
"No! No one has hurt me, boys i..."
"Have they touched you or made you uncomfortable?" Cuphead said again before she could finish, again.
"W-well i... I mean..."
They trio went quiet. Now was when they decided to shut up?
Mugman put his hands on her shoulders. "Angel... did they touch you?" He asked slowly.
Angel blushed and bowed her head, unable to look her brothers in the eyes. She nodded.
"Did you say no?" He asked
She shook her head
Mugman swallowed, "Did you want to say no?"
She shook her head again.
"Did....did you WANT what they did to you?" He asked, choking a bit on the idea.
Shewas still and quiet for a long moment before she nodded her head once, little tears dripping down her face.
"Angel... that's the devil... The devil and his right hand man... how could you want that?" Cup head asked after a long moment
"They're kind to me... devil and dice they...they make me feel like...like I'm beautiful. Like I'm a prize to be won..."
"They're tricking you angel..." cup head said firmly, taking her face in his hands.
"Regardless.... I have to stay with them... so I might as well enjoy it cups... please... please don't worry over me too much." She said as she stepped out of their grasp. "Don't attack the casino boys. I love you. This isn't goodbye. I promise." She said, tears rolling down her face as she stepped back out into the light of the carnival and turned to walk back to where she had been standing, trying to stop crying.
