About a minute later, Tirou and his mother arrive at Holly's house.

Guards begin asking if they've seen Holly.

Tirou's mother suddenly teleports away.

She groans as she sits up, looking around. She knew he wouldn't change it, he was too obsessed with her to change the house.

Without warning, there's a strong blow to the back of his head, knocking out Holly's captor.

He groans, suddenly falling to the side. She looks startled, but not scared.

Jet-black tendrils wrap around his hands and legs, restraining him.

She looks up at the person.

It's a muscular, tall demon with sharp features and long, black hair that's been braided to one side. She kneels by Holly. "Are you alright?"

She suddenly winces, touching the back of her head and looking at it to see it covered i n bl od. She sighs, shaking her head. She winces, hugging her knees to her chest as she begins to whimper.
