Apathia:"I don't care what you do..." she shrugged

"It's not a very demonic way to wake up someone, especially not a violent one." commented Ponos. "I think you are getting affected by human vessel, Via!"
He thought for a few second.
"Or was it a lie? Do you plan to make her suffer by not buying her any waffle?"

Via raised an eyebrow and smirked as a reply. Katifeia whimpered softly. "I'm mad at you for slamming your forehead into my face." she flicked her index finger with her thumb, creating a spark, which hit kat, being so close. She gasped and went still for a few seconds, eyes wide, before Via mimed catching a small object and it flew back. "Should we start investigating? Or should we feed our vessels first?"

"Feed our vessel? Where you serious about buying us some waffles, Violence?"
Ponos knew their vessels needed strenght and energy if they wanted to be able find what had happened. They could have to fight something.
" All joking aside, I think you are right, we need to feed our vessels. Kai is hungry. Humans are useless when they haven't eaten anything. "

"I agree with the latter. They get sorta... Floppy. it's annoying." She sighed a bit. "I miss the old days. I don't even think we're in the same country. What happened between? Everything is different!"

"I don't know. I think humans happened.They do annoying things when they are not under our influence. Do you know they have invented things call painkillers? How irritating!".

"And straightjackets. Horrible. Manacles were better. And therapy. Completely unneeded." Via paused, her eyes flickering a fierce amber. "Do you think....." She paused again, carefully choosing her words. "Do you think it was, you know, the... other ones?" The good ones. Well, now probably fewer. They were even more shattered then the bad ones. The mirrors to them. Love, Acceptance, Bravery, all the others. No idea how many were left. All of them became weakened. Limited. So the bright light..... They had a leader too. "Oh no."

"And have you heard about tranquilizers? I'm sure you would not like those. And anaesthesia . I hate anaesthesia. Torture is forbidden in a lot of countries now. This time is depressing." continued Ponos.

His face became grave when Via spoke about the others. They were their rivals. Their enemies. But wasn't it against their boring values of peace and greater goodness to kill people?
"Could the others really have done this? What do you think had happened? Why now? "
If the others really had decided to eliminate them, Ponos knew he could be their next target. Pain was not very appreciated among the "good" ones. If they tried to kill him, they would suffer a lot, he promised himself internaly.

"If something happened like it did to us... They probably just 'showed up' like us. And remember, they were all weakened. Except for Good." She wrinkled her nose. This was serious. "But Greed, Illness and Despair are still gone." She looked down, then opened a portal into a fiery ring. "I should buy you a pet tarantula hawk wasp. This is where Greed faded. And there's some sort of insect place right across the street, see?"
Katifeia saw a waffle house on the block too. "Let's go."
Via jumped through, and saw a faint golden haze, knowing only a demon would see. "It was here."

Apathia:"Don't leave me!" he hopped through
