The trio hung out in the basement, where Gundham let the animals run around wild. Kazuichi played with the curious rats, Sonia was fawning over the hedgehogs, and Gundham was of course, doing tricks with the devas.
"Hey Gundham, can Saki and Luka learn tricks?" Kazuichi asked. Gundham grabbed a treat and made a hand signal at the rats, they both ran in a circle, and Gundham have them the snack.
"Rats are incredibly intelligent beasts of destruction, but you must start simple" Gundham explained, he really liked talking about animals, and that was obvious to anyone who listened to him. He offered Kazuichi a rat treat.
"Hold out your finger like this and say "spin"" Gundham instructed. Kazuichi repeated his actions and the rats ran in little circles again. Kazuichi laughed and looked at Gundham proudly. Gundham flashed a mischievous smirk at him. About an hour later, around 12:30, Ms.Tanaka called them up for lunch. She had sandwiches with lettuce tomato and onions on them, they had no meat on them of course. Kazuichi always put lunch meat on his sandwiches, but he was grateful to have something fresh made for him.
The three friends sat down at the table and started eating.
"Thanks Ms.Tanaka!" Sonia thanked. Kazuichi grumbled his thanks through a mouthful of sandwich. Gundham ate half of his sandwich before putting it down.
"Are you gonna eat that" Kazuichi mumbled as he shoved the last of his own sandwich into his mouth. Gundham pushed the plate towards him. Nom, Kazuichi ate the sandwich quickly and greedily as he ate the first one.
"Thanks!" Kazuichi said after he had finished.
"You eat like you're starving" Sonia joked. Kazuichi stayed quiet at the remark, but it was close to the truth, he had to buy his own good a most of the time, and it was usually something shitty and cheap.
"Are you ok mortal? you are making a strange face." Gundham asked.
"Yeah, I just have a stomach ache because I ate too fast." He lied.
"Do you have anything to drink?" Kazuichi asked.
"We have milk, water and orange juice" Gundham answered.
"Milk? I was thought you were vegan." Kazuichi said, confused.
"It's almond milk, but they don't say that because it's the only type of milk they have" Sonia explained.
"Does it taste like regular milk?" Kazuichi asked.
"I don't know." Gundham answered.
"Well of course you wouldn't know!" Sonia laughed.
"It tastes kind of like milk but less creamy and a little sweeter." Sonia described. Gundham got the milk from the fridge and poured himself a glass.
"I want to try it" Kazuichi said.
Gundham poured two more cups. Sonia drank hers and made a sharp "ahh" sound. Kazuichi sniffed his, it smelled ok, so he took a sip,
"Pretty good" he said, drinking the rest.
They hung around Gundham's house for the rest of the day, they brought the dog outside for a break, Gundham was the only one who could touch her without getting bitten. They ate tofu hot dogs for dinner, and ate the muffins Ms.Tanaka had made that morning for dessert.
After dinner they went up to Gundham's room. Sonia started giggling,
"Huh? What's so funny miss Sonia?" Kazuichi asked.
"Just wait..." Gundham said. They pulled some black robes out of the closet,
"Put this on!" Sonia said. Kazuichi was uneasy, but he wanted to impress Sonia so he put it on over his clothes. She put hers on too, Gundham walked into the room with a strange looking cup, also wearing a strange robe. Sonia layed down a tablecloth with a satanic looking star with a goat head in it.
"H-Hey, w-what is this? H-Hey GUYS?" Kazuichi stammered as Sonia turned off the lights so that candles were the only thing lighting the room.
"We're inducting you into our coven!" Sonia said.
"A what?" Kazuichi asked.
"A coven is a group of witches!" Gundham announced.
"But I'm not a witch!" Kazuichi yelled.
"You will be soon!, Just drink the elixir!" She demanded. Kazuichi swallowed, he didn't want to disobey Sonia but the liquid in the cup was dark red and he couldn't see it too well. He shakily took a sip of the drink, it was orange juice with red dye in it. After realizing that it was safe, he drank the rest.
"So am I part of the club now?" Kazuichi asked.
"It's called a coven... Now we have to hold hands in a circle." Sonia said.
"We shall link our hands and close our eyes" Gundham announced.
They did that and Sonia and Gundham started chanting,
"Gratissimum, Gratissimum, Gratissimum." They repeated. Kazuichi felt a little scared, but he didn't want to seem uncool. After doing that for a minute or two, someone suddenly blew the candles out.
"WAAAAHHHH!!!" Kazuichi yelled And scrambled around on the floor. Gundham was going to turn the lights back on and stepped on the flailing boy.
"Ow!" He whined.
"Get off the floor then..." Gundham suggested sarcastically, and he flicked the lights back on.
"It's getting pretty late, we should go to sleep, but there's only one bed..." Sonia said, yawning.
"I'll sleep on the floor, I guess" Kazuichi said.
"Great! Me and Gundham will sleep on the bed" Sonia grinned.
"Wait! I thought you were saying that because you didn't want to sleep next to a boy. Gundham should sleep on the floor with me!" Kazuichi complained.
"If you want to sleep with Gundham so bad then you guys can have the bed..." Sonia said, with an evil grin.
"What! No! It's not like we're cuddling or anything! You know what... Whatever, just don't do anything gross while I'm sleeping near you guys..." Kazuichi warned.
They all went to sleep.
Kazuichi was having a nightmare and he was whining quietly in his sleep,
"N-no please d-don't d-do that, dad no!" he cried in his sleep. He was shaken awake by someone, Gundham was next to him. Kazuichi latched onto him and started crying. Gundham put him into the bed and got in between him and Sonia. They cuddled each other sleepily until they drifted off.
