Fantasy Magic Brew Cafè (CLOSED)

"Everybody does their part," Vincent hissed, grabbing Alexanders hand before thrusting his own into the bucket, fishing out the sponge and slapping it into the prince's hand, "That's how this cafe works, and it'll go much quicker if you just accept the fact that you're going to clean up this mess." His red eyes flashed dangerously, before he submerged his and into the bucket again, handing the second sponge to Akira, "You made the mess, you clean it up." He growled.
 
Alexander scrunched up his nose looking at the sponge with disgust he was okay with doing anything BUT cleaning. "Can't I just pay you for any damages and get someone in to clean it up? I really don't do cleaning. Besides I do need to get back soon to the kingdom. I was only supposed to take a break I've already been here too long and we aren't even near to being finished planning security." Akira frowned she didn't really want Alexander to go, knowing Shadae made that kind of threat put her even more on edge, With Alexander she could atleast pretend everything is alright and believe her own lies. @Cryobionic
 
"If I have to get this cafe locked down and barricaded until every single drop of water and cream is cleaned off the floors, I will." Vincent growled, his fists clenching, "You will clean this all up by hand, and you will not leave until it's done." The demon turned around to leave, but stopped after taking a few steps, his head turning to glare at them over his shoulder, "If you two so much as entertain the idea of sneaking off, I will track you down, drag you both to hell and make you clean up the remains of the soul torture chambers with your toothbrushes. Don't test me on this." He snapped, the whites around his irises going black for a split second, before he stomped off to the bar again.


Honestly, one would think he had asked the two to pull out their own nails with rusty pliers.

Alexander groaned "Looks like Luke is planning alone for awhile." he frowned at the mess, though a small smile sprung on Akira's face at having Alexander stay by her side. "Wanna make it a race Alex?" He raised an eyebrow "How?" Akira's grin widened "You take one side of the room I take the other, the first one done cooks tonight" Alexander's eyes widened at the though of Akira cooking. Akira grinned "Get ready to have me cook for you! I'll make a delicious meal" she giggled and then counted "We go in three...two..one..clean!" Alexander started faster than her and looked panicked Akira giggled and cleaned just as fast. If you listened carefully you could hear strings of curse words coming from Alexander as he tried to beat her.
 
Ellie walked back out to cafe, her eyes wide in surprise, "You did it...I can't believe you did it!" she squeaked, looking at Vinny with awe, "Vincent Buckley I don't think I've ever been more in love with you then at this moment," she murmured softly.
 
Akira smirked watching Alexander trying to keep up with her "You better hurry Alex or you'll be eating my cooking tonight" she taunted Alexander started working faster "NO! HELL NO!" the strings of swearwords came out a bit louder that now Akira could hear it and she was giggling cleaning just as fast as him
 
The demon, to his credit, had the decency to grin sheepishly, "Yeah, well..." He muttered, scratching the back of his head, not really knowing how to respond to that, "Act like children, get treated like children." He shrugged, reaching behind him to turn on the coffee machine, "You want some milk tea while we enjoy the show?" He snickered, gesturing to the dancing protector and her competing sidekicks.
 
"Yes please," Ellie smiled, sitting up on the bar Indian style. "This is almost as good as that time Ase used the whiskey for target practice," Ellie laughed, smiling brightly at Vinny.
 
Raya went rigid, first Ellie had a lightening episode which her subconcious thinking it was a threat. She wanted to slap herself as her eyes lit up then kept her head down and Vincent's actual threat had vines running up her fingers which was very frustrating since she knew they wouldn't do anything. Or hoped anyways...


She kept her powers restrained until the two of them had stalked off then a bright flash of blue flame clouded in front of her which she didn't mean to do and ended up clapping the flame smaller and smaller until it dissapeared then she awkwardly whistled when she noticed the sizzling water underneath her, "Oh great.." she muttered knowing that the temperature probably went up a good five degrees.


She abandoned her area and walked over to Akira and Alexander, cleaning the area she walked on with her rag covered feet, "You two are quite the little rebels, aren't ya?" She asked then laughed, "Apparently you need a threat to go to hell before you clean?" She asked and smiled, poking them both on the foreheads.
 
Alexander looked up at Raya "No that threat didn't bother me. If I don't win I have to eat Akira's COOKING" he looked horrified at the thought and cleaned faster Akira laughing like a maniac on her side of the room "So what do you want to eat tonight Alex? Pasta? Steak?" Alexander cringed with each thing she listed off and looked scared as he cleaned faster lowly chanting "My Fiancee is a demon" low enough that Akira didn't hear.


Akira smiled at Alexander pausing to watch him before going back to cleaning "I have my reasons Raya, the threat to go to hell didn't affect me either." her smile turned bitter thinking of everything thats happened to her she lowly whispered "I'm already living in it" she went back to cleaning a smile appearing on her face again though it was slightly strained "Come on! Keep up Alex! Is that the best you can do?" Alexander blushed "Shut up!" and kept cleaning faster and faster

Zero walked downstairs to see both Akira and Alexander cleaning. "What happened here?" Zero hasn't really been himself since he went to that funeral and most of the few days he's been secluded he's just been depressed what with his friend dying and all. He sat at the bar and looked at Vincent "I'd like some whiskey if you don't mind...."


@Cryobionic
 
"Just people learning that they have to clean up after themselves," Vincent smiled, before handing a cup of tea over to Ellie, turning around to face the detective completely. His eyes widened a tad, "You look horrible." He deadpanned, reaching under the bar, fishing out a bottle of jack. He contemplated getting a glass from the cupboards over the counter, but decided against it, just handing the whole bottle over to the shadow demon. It looked like he needed it.
 
Ellie looked over at Zero a worried expression on her face, "Do you need to talk about anything Zero?" she murmured softly. She couldn't begin to imagine what he was going through, from what she could gather, his partner had been the closest person to the demon.
 
Soon Akira and Alexander were done Akira smiled "Looks like its a tie" Alexander sighed in relief "Which means we cook together" her smile widened Alexander stood up "Seeing as all thats left is the small spot Raya was cleaning I need to get back to Luke now"Akira stood up Alexander walked over and picked up his key. Akira's face fell for a split second when his back was turned but as soon as he turned back to her a forced smile spread on her face.


Alexander walked up to her "I'll see you when you get home tonight" Akira nodded her hands clasped infront of her "Yeah, Alright." Alexander smiled and threw his key he turned and walked towards it Akira took a step forward brows furrowed and opened her mouth her one hand slightly reaching towards him "Alex!" He turned around "What is it?" Akira clutched her hands to her chest and forced a smile "Make sure you don't overwork yourself, I love you." Alexander gave her a slight look of confusion before smiling softly at her "I won't. I love you too Little bird" Akira watched him turn around and enter the portal it closing behind him. Her smile fell and she rushed to the cafe bathroom closing the door and sliding to the floor. She really hadn't wanted Alexander to go.


She felt safer when he was by her side but now she was just scared and lonely without him. On top of that she caused Maria to abandon Ellie and the others. Tears sprung to her eyes and she drew her knees up to her chest and buried her face in them.
 
"Don't cry!" Raya squealed, again a puff of fire appearing in front of her which had her scowling. She ignored it then picked up a half full whip cream bottle and sprayed it at Akira and then sh3 froze, taking in what she just did, control yourself! She mentally screamed, "Oh sorry!" She squealed.

Ellie looked over at Akira worried when she saw the young girl run into the bathroom, "Vinny...Were we to hard on her?" she murmured softly, looking at the demon with a mixture of worry and confusion.
 
"No, we weren't." Vincent replied, sighing a little, "And if we were, it's nothing she doesn't need to hear. However, I doubt this is about cleaning."
 
Ellie looked down, fiddling with the edge of her dress"I don't know what to do...I...Maria was always better at situations like this..." she murmured sadly, resting her head on the bar."It's just like when we were kids...I'm still leaning on Maria, nothings changed," she whined softly, curling up so she seemed smaller.

Akira said nothing, she just waited for Raya to leave her be oblivious that more than just Raya noticed her state. Her nails dug into her arms as she suppressed her sobs so she could say she was fine. She couldn't lift her head and say it though she knew if she did she wouldn't be able to hold it in seeing a friends face.
 
The bell on the cafe door rang as a woman in a cloak entered her face obscured from view. Akira shuddered when her white wing turned pitch black for a split second. The woman took a seat at one of the tables her hood still up. Akira finally raised her head and stood up walking out the bathroom her eyes landing on the woman. The woman lowered her hood to reveal Shadae she tapped her nails on the table as she looked around, when she caught Akira's eyes a smirk bloomed on her face. Akira's eyes widened in horror Akira walked over to Vincent and Ellie grabbing onto Vincents arm her nails digging into it not taking her eyes off the woman. "V..Vincent" she stuttered out in a whisper "That woman she.." Shadae sighed and stood up realizing Akira definitely wasn't going to come to her.


Shadae's heels clicked across the cafe floor as she made her way to Akira, Ellie and Vincent. Akira moved slightly so she was a bit behind Vincent.


Shadae stopped and smiled anyone would be fooled into thinking it was friendly and sweet but the trained eye or the distrusting person would see otherwise.


"Akira it's so good to see you again." Akira dug her nails harder into Vincents arm her voice caught in her throat "What? Cat got your tongue?" Shadae chuckled.


"Why don't we talk, catch up. We haven't seen each other in a little while. I have much to tell you" Akira's eyes widened further her eyes not once looking away from Shadae her white wing flickering like crazy her eyes subtly glowing purple just in Shadae's presence. Akira could feel the push of a presence in her head again she was keeping it at bay best she could.

Zero shook his head "Thanks for the compliment...." He just opened the bottle and just started gulping the thing down. He looked at Ellie and shook his head "Even if I wanted to talk you guys really wouldn't understand, you know from day one they say that you should expect this to happen but how can you prepare for this shit! Fucking bullshit......" He muttered the last part as he gulped down more of the Whiskey, Apparently Akira is hiding behind Vincent and another woman is there talking to her, Zero looked up from his bottle, and looked at Akira. He sighed as he noticed the terrifying expression she was wearing on her face. "Hey, is this woman bothering you?" He asked Akira. If she was well Zero had to do his duty as an officer of the law and remove the woman away from her.

Ellie looked at the woman confused as she began talking to Akira, who clearly looked like she didn't want anything to do with the woman. "Uhm, excuse me...can you leave my friend alone please..." she whimpered softly, avoiding eye contact with the woman, backing away nervously.
 
Vincent looked up from his cup of coffee as the bell above the door rang, and for the second time that night, experienced a sense of extreme deja vu. He could have sword that door had been locked. However, he didn't have much time to think about how this, as a darkly clothed woman stepped over the threshold, and into the cafe.


The woman in herself looked like nothing special, her dark curls peeking out from underneath her drawn up hood, but for some inexplicable reason, she gave him a bad vibe. Made the hairs on the back of his neck suddenly stand on end.


He was just about to inform her that the cafe was currently closed, and would be so until midnight, when a stinging, burning pain suddenly began to spread from his left arm. It almost brought him to his knees, and he had to fight to hide a pained shout.


A glance to his left revealed none other than Akira, digging her digits into his wounds, tearing open his stitches one by one. Vincent tired to say something to her, to ask her why the hell she was hurting him in this way, but the look on her face, the look of absolute terror, was enough to make him force down the growing, unignorable pain now shooting out from every nerve her nails were tearing into.


"What..." He stammered out, "What... I'm sorry... we're not open yet."
 
Shadae raised an eyebrow at the others "Oh right, you people are here." she said her tone suggesting they didn't matter and were nothing more than bugs. She flicked her gaze back to Akira "Really my dear child. Why do you look at me like that? All I've been doing is trying to save you" Akira's eyes widened further as she froze her grip on Vincent loosening the woman sighed "Come now Akira, are you still upset with me?" Akira scowled and jumped over the counter a sword made of crystals forming in her hand as she brought it down on Shadae who countered with a quickly made sword of her own. Akira glared "You call KILLING My FATHER saving me?!" Shadae glared back "Really now all I wish to do is talk. Holding such silly grudges is unfitting of a princess, a future Queen. Besides I told you before, your parents were weak. Really though it seems you favor disgusting weak cowards... I'll fix that flaw in you though" she looked at everyone with disdain before turning back to Akira "You really are a bad child though attacking your own creator. I'm your true mother" Akira glared harder at Shadae trying to overpower her "I don't care what the hell you say, you are NOT my mother!"


Shadae sighed "In time you will see that I'm the right person to have by your side my dear, I could bring out your potential you could be so much more than you've dreamed. I could find you a better husband, unless you wish to keep your current prince, I'm sure I could mold him and you into the perfect children" Akira snarled at her, Shadae overpowered Akira and with her magic flung Akira back crashing into the bar counter the sword Akira hastily made shattering "I really do not know why you refuse to accept me.Have you truly been so blinded by these weaklings around you that you don't know where you truly belong? I do not understand why you're so hostile when all I wish to do is talk. I do not remember you being this hotheaded and unladylike when I observed you from the shadows. Such a disappointment."


@Cryobionic @Elfia Nightwing @Archdemon @DestinyRed
 
It all happened instant, too fast for the demon to react, or even attempt to prevent it. As his pain-blurred vision caught his assistant manager crash into the bar, his body suddenly started cracking, twitching and shifting. He could feel every bone in his body start to elongate, shifting underneath his skin, making his stitches rip open, tear apart the flesh so delicately sewn together. The rage now coursing through his body, a result of it having been slowly building up throughout the day, suddenly came bursting out in a terrifying display of the usually docile demon transforming into his true form.


Vincent let out a pained yell, buckling over as horns began protruding out of his forehead, piercing an ripping at the delicate skin just under his hairline.


Now, standing several feet taller, his eyes flashing with unconcealed rage, fury, on behalf of the now whimpering fairy curled up on the ground, he lifted one blood covered, claw-like finger, pointing at the door. "Get. Out." He snarled at the woman, his whole subconscious now perceiving her as a threat. His voice sounded purely demonic, as if several voices were speaking in a horrible, bloodcurdling chorus, "Or I will not hesitate to throw you into the fires of hell."
