Oh how she wanted death now. Now at this moment she would plead for it, beg for it. She didn't want to be here any more, it was like her misery started all over again, but she wouldn't be able to run. Also no one would come and be her night in shining armor. She was close to falling on the gold carpet and begging, pleading for death.
"oh, you made it wonderful!" boomer smiled clapping his hands in joy. Bubbles was now sulking, wanting that sweet death. Brick nodded and butch grinned at their blue eyed brothers comment. What made bubbles again think, what the hell was going on?!
The man walked to his seat and sat himself grinning at his...children. His red skinned was a different shade then the rooms color. And his red eyes were covered by think black glasses. He wore a suit just like the others, but his shirt was a plain white.
"so bubbles, I see boomer gave you the dress that he picked out!" the man told her. Bubbles raised her head gently. Why was he here? Why did the devil have to be here? She nodded and looked back down. This made the devil pout. "you know I won't hurt you, I have no reason to do that to you." the devil smiled but the smile had a twisted glint to it, that practically scared the living shit out of her. "bubbles we are here to discuss something, important, we are here to talk about you..." bubbles head shot up and she looked at the demon. He nodded. "yes you"
"what? Why?" she asked looking around in confusion. That when brick spoke up.
"marking day, we are here to talk about that!" he said, his brothers nodded.
"we had to talk about it with you" butch said.
"its only fair..." boomer put in. Bubbles sighed softly and nodded. She would have to talk about it sooner or later.
"good!" the demon king said he waved his hand and out of red mist and black sparkles appeared a black in closed bottle of wine. He popped it open. All three boys held out their glass waiting for the wine. Bubbles slowly put her glass up. The devil poured himself some. Then he poured brick, next butch, last boomer, that was for the boys. Then he poured the dark red liquid into her blue London topaz crystal cup. The gems on the cup shined as the deep red liquid fell.
Bubbles looked at the wine and took a small slip. It surprisingly didn't taste as bad as she thought. She put it down and looked at the king of demon. Something though she didn't understand, how were the boys here? Taking a small cough she looked up
"ummm I have a question"
The devil, looked at her pleasingly. "hmmm?"
"how are the rowdyruff boys here, if they are with my sisters?" the boys looked her. That sort of made her uncomfortable. She squirmed a little in her seat.
"nice question. You see the boys at the moment are using their subconscious mind, when they close there eyes they can see fragments of what is going on. But most of what is happening is going on in your head. Your body was taken and was now sleeping. Until your father awakened you and I had to counter and make you faint. Its something I can do, and im very proud of myself!" the demon smiled at the girl, who just nodded. "okay now we shall talk about the marking day!" the boys cheered.
"what about that day?" bubbles asked looking at he lap. She played with her fingers. One of them traced the mark that held upon her wrist. This mark, was stupid, deadly, killing but it had saved her life. She knew it and couldn't counter, because of it, the devil wouldn't kill her, he had to keep her safe. That meant keeping her safe was also keeping her family safe from his evil clutches. She kew it and he knew it, but they said not a word of it.
"well, are you scared?" the voice was soft and caring she turned to see it came from her counterpart. He held a gently glaze at her. She swore the lump in her throat grew, and she literally forgot how to speak. A blush now consumed her pale features.
"u-uhhhh n-no" she said looking down again, mentally cursing herself for stuttering.
Boomer tilted his head. She wasn't scared, of her marking day. She wasn't scared that this mark would kill her but keep her alive. She wasn't scared that everything she loved would be ripped away from her in a second. That she would be against her family and friends, she wouldn't be able to see them. Why wasn't she scared?
"your not scared?" he asked
"n-n-no should I be scared?" she asked looking at him. Her shook his head, giving an answer. Then he smiled. She would be fine, she wasn't scared after all...
"now back to the marking day" brick spoke up his red eyes scanning everyone in the room. "I can see how it will all go down" he said smirking. The devil raised and eye brow.
"now son how will it go down?" that smirk on brick's face grew.
"I can't say, nor will I say. Lets just say things will have a beautiful twist to it...for both side" he let out a laugh and drank some of blood colored wine. Butch rolled his eyes, boomer gave a curious look.
"why can't you say?" the devil asked his voice sounded annoyed and a little pissed, that his own son would not tell him such needed details.
Brick saw this and heard the tone of his "father". Brick just never seemed to like what the demon king had done, to his other half. Him and his other half were complete being just one, but know he was one person and he was another. Two separated by the king of hell. A smirk grew on his face as she opened his mouth to answer " as you can see, that wouldn't be fair and seemly if the other brick gets hurt I get hurt so I won't say"
The devil king tapped his long nails, negatively on the oak table. He was breathing at a different pace, trying to rid of the anger that now boiled in his blood. His eyes were shut closed not daring to look at the table occupants. "do you think I care, if the other twit gets hurt? I could care less and when you come out during the battle, you wont be hurt but the other two power puff girls will be dead by midnight!" he yelled into the room.
Bubbles looked confused for a second then she glared at the devil. "dont. You. Dare. Touch. My. Family." the young blue eyed hissed at the devil. Everyone at the table stared wide eyed.
"now, bubbles calm down" boomer tried to calm the girl. Though she kept looking tense. Her eyes closed and she looked down.
" now what if I do touch them?" the devil now took his chance and stepped in cold waters. He never though he would get burned.
The little girl let out an uncharacteristic laugh and her fist landed on the table, it shook the table ware. Boomer flinched, butch grinned and brick smirked. " touch them and I won't be scared enough you rip your body limb form limb. Got it?" the devil king showed no fear to the child, but on the inside he was thinking what could this innocent girl hid?
"aright I won't touch a hair on them...but we must go back to talking about your marking day, im getting lind of tired of talking about your sisters" the demon smirked he didn't need to touch the girls, when he had three servants at his feet and one to go.
Bubbles snapped out of what ever trace she was in. She blinked and softly nodded " will it hurt?" she asked looking down again. The three boys flinched obviously knowing the answer.
