“Wait. Where did you say we are going?” Kir asks as she skids to a halt. “The Underworld.” Alex answers casually. “Uh, how are we going to get there? Only demons know where the entrance is.” Kir states matter-of-factly. “Yeah, I know, so come on.” Alex says. Kir looks at Alex for a moment. Realization pops into her eyes as she shouts, “Oh my gods, you’re a demon!” Alex laughs so hard that he falls back onto his bottom. “Your reaction is priceless. Yes, I’m a demon.” Alex says between fits of laughter. Kir’s face grows slightly pink from embarrassment. “Okay, okay, let’s go then.” Kir says as she holds out a hand towards Alex to help him back up.Alex wipes tears from his eyes as he calms himself and grabs Kir's hand. Kir pulls him up with ease. "So, where do we go from here?" Kir asks while keeping her face turned away from Alex's view. "Down." Alex answers. Kir turns to Alex and tilts her in confusion. "Down?" She asks. "Yes, down. W
Kir wakes up with a start, screaming and panicking. "Asher! No!" She yells as her body propels itself into a sitting position. She feels a warm embrace and begins to feel herself calming down. "I was so scared.." she whispers and buries her face into the arms that surround her. Kir sniffles and then remembers where she is before jumping out of Alex's arms. "Are you okay?" The man asks with concern as he stares at her. Kir regains her composure and nods. "I'm fine, can I take a shower?" She asks without looking at Alex. "Sure, go ahead. The bathroom is right there." He says as he points to a door at the back of the room. "Do you need clothes? I can go buy some really fast." Alex asks as he continues to stare at Kir. "No need but thank you." Kir says meekly as she rushes into the bathroom to bathe and hide her embarrassment.Alex stares at the closed bathroom door for a moment before getting his phone out to text his sister. 'hey, can you look someone up for me? I'll owe you one… ' He p
Alex and Kir walk along the city streets, stopping at every shop that Kir spots on their way to the café. Kir skids to a halt, once again, when she spots a small casino-like building. "What's that?" She asks, eyes sparkling with excitement and curiosity. Alex looks over to the building and gulps audibly. "That's the Serpent's Lair, a casino owned by my cousin." Alex explains. "Your cousin? So Morphy?" Kir asks, excitement increasing in her voice. Alex coughs, "Morphy? What's with trying to make his name sound all cutesy?" Alex asks, giving Kir a suspicious glance. "I don't know what you're talking about Alex." Kir slyly turns away to avoid Alex's gaze. "Anyway, let's go in there! It looks fun and I've never been to a casino before." Kir doesn't wait for Alex's response before running towards the building's entrance."Kir! Wait!" Alex shouts but is ignored by her as she goes inside. Alex sighs, realizing he has no choice but to follow and make s
Kir and Alex continue making out, both seeming to have lost control of themselves. Alex breaks the connection between their lips as he bites Kir on her shoulder. Kir feels a small trickle of blood dripping from the bite, reflexively she bites Alex back. The moment she tastes his blood on her tongue, Kir's eyes shoot open and she pushes Alex off of her. Without a word she rushes into the bathroom and locks herself in, leaving a very confused Alex sitting on the floor with his back against the wall. Alex sits there, bewildered by everything that took place. He doesn't understand why either of them reacted the way they did or how they ended up making out. And the thing that confuses him the most is why Kir suddenly pushed him away. Alex reaches into his pocket for his phone but can't find it. He decides to stand up and look around the room. He spots his phone on the edge of the bed and unlocks his screen. Alex notices an unread message and clicks to open i
Ari bursts through the door a few moments later. "What do you mean she's gone?! Where is she? How is it even possible for you to mess up this much so quickly?!" Ari shouts as she paces around the room. "Why aren't you saying anything!!" She scolds Alex."You didn't give me a chance to say anything.. " Alex points out, his head down. "True.. Do you have any clue where she could've gone? Wait, no, if you did then you wouldn't have called me… ugh, okay well she couldn't have gone too far, right? I mean she's only been here for one night, there's no way she memorized any paths or anything." Ari reasons with herself. Alex's face turns grim. "Actually, Kir has an amazing sense of direction. She already knows how to get to and from the café from here.." Alex points out. Ari groans, "of course she did, why wouldn't she? She's the princess of the whole supernatural kingdom! Anything else I should know?" Alex thinks for a moment before speaking, "we
Alex takes the chance to look around the room, searching for clues about Kir's connection to Asher. He stops when he spots a picture laid face down. Alex lifts up the photo for a look. He sees a tall man in his teens with hair that looked similar to flames except it was silver instead of yellow. Alex studies the photo for a moment and notices a name in the corner: Asher at age seventeen. Alex puts the photo back where he found it and continues walking around the room. "There's gotta be something.." He whispers to himself. Alex stops at a nightstand near the bed, he reaches towards the drawer but hesitates for a moment. 'You're snooping through a dead man's belongings, just how low have you stooped..' He thinks to himself. Alec shakes his head and opens the drawer. His heart is pounding now as he sees a single envelope inside. Alex opens the envelope slowly, not wanting to risk ripping anything that might be inside. He pulls out two folded pieces of pape
Alex looks over to Kir and sighs to himself, 'there's no way that I can just straight up ask her something like that.' Kir's ears twitch, causing Alex to hold his breath while fearing that she heard him. Kir shoots up from the bed with a wicked smile on her face. "Oh no.. Whatever you're thinking right now, it's not happening." Alex says quickly. Kir frowns, "I didn't even say anything yet.' Alex laughs, "you don't need to. I've learned what that smile means already." Kir pouts at his words. Kir walks over to Alex and pokes his cheek repeatedly. Alex becomes annoyed and nips at Kir's finger. "Fine, what do you want?" He asks with an exasperated sigh. Kir smiles victoriously, "let's go to school tomorrow!" Alex's heart stops as he stares in bewilderment at the blue haired female. "You're joking, right?" He asks in hopes that she's messing with him. "Nope! I'm one thousand percent serious, Alex. Let's go to school tomorrow!" She shouts with excitement. Alex shakes his head in disbelie
Kir wakes up feeling excited, ready to enact her master plan. Unbeknownst to Alex, she had also invited a few guests to help them out today. After last night's confession, Kir felt that Alex might be too distracted to act his designated part so she decided that it would be wise to have backup.Kir took a quick shower and brushed her hair and teeth. Seeing that she had plenty of time to spare, she decided to do a mermaid braid hairstyle today. After finishing her hair, Kir adds some light foundation to her face before placing forest green eyeshadow and crimson lip gloss. She looks in the mirror with satisfaction as she walks out of the bathroom to pick out her outfit for the day. In order for her plan to be executed with perfection, she had to look like trouble. She changes into a black tank top and a purple plaid mini skirt. She laces up her black combat boots and slips on a black leather jacket. With her preparations complete, Kir walks out of her room and over to the room that Alex
