Few hours later Barbatos suddenly woke up and saw he was still on Mammon who was still asleep.

For a second he smiled but then stop and started to regret what
He did and said. He found it pointless knowing nothing would come out of it besides freaking him out more.

He then looked at mammon's hand and held it in his and said as he was thinking things over.

Barbatos : .....there's a good chance you'll remember all of this.....when you go back.....I wonder if it's best if I make you forget everything for when that happens..... it's probably best that way...."

After this he got up and notice how cute Mammon looked while sleeping so he got an idea.

Few minutes later Mammon suddenly woke up and notice Barbatos sitting at the table drawing something. Until he noticed that he woke up.

Barbatos : awake now I see?"

Mammon : I....so about what h-!?

Barbatos : anyway I probably made things worse for us so there goes doing anythin-!?

Barbatos suddenly stood realizing something.

Mammon : what now?"

Barbatos : .....when I was taken some things were taken from me.... kinda need it back...."

Mammon : ........ what was so important....."

Barbatos : my spell book..... kinda dangerous in anyone's hands. I call I call it the darkhold"

Mammon : what's in it?"

Barbatos : notes.... and spells and basically power to corrupt you and to destroy space and time or whatever you want with it"

Mammon : why did you make that!?"

Barbatos : I'm basically a god why wouldn't I? And I got bored? And I need notes?"

Mammon : you made a powerful book....yet you can't get me home!?"

Barbatos : it's a work in progress? Anyway it's important I get it back before they find a way to break into it. I put a seal on it but the king might get curious and attempt to open it which he probably could"

Mammon : ......."

Barbatos : ..... relax since I attempted to kill him he is probably resting.

And I already got a plan. Next week is this masquerade party at the castle.  So it will be the perfect way to sneak in?"

Mammon : they know what we look like?"

Barbatos: you can blend it well and it's a masquerade party wear a mask?"

Mammon : and you?"

Barbatos : you forget I can change into anything. And I'll show you next week. To leave it as a surprise!"

Mammon : .... I'm scared...."

Barbatos : don't worry about it"

Next week.............................................

Tonight was the masquerade party as Mammon was ready in a suit and mask Barbatos most likely stole for him. Barbatos was in his room getting ready until he suddenly walked out.

Mammon : so are you r-!?

He saw that Barbatos was now a woman who was in this green ball gown and had a green mask on and looked dress up and pretty.

Female Barbatos : you act like this is the weirdest thing I did? Anyway this was harder than it looked"

Mammon : .....w-why?...."

Female Barbatos : had to put out the right dress?"

Mammon : you don't have to take this so serious?! Anything would be fine!?"

Female Barbatos : when I do something I go all the way I don't slack. "

Mammon : ....... can we go?"

Female Barbatos : yeah"

Later at the castle they managed to get in the castle and immediately Mammon lost sight of Barbatos until he found them at the dessert table eating.

Mammon : aren't we supposed to look for your darkhold book?"

Female Barbatos : I was hungry? You know I'm poor right? I didn't eat good untill you show up"

Mammon : ......where would they keep your things?"

Female Barbatos : dungeon office"

Mammon : shouldn't we make our way down there then?"

Female Barbatos : yeah.... just give me a few more minutes....."

Barbatos just kept eating and Mammon could tell they were trying to avoid going down there
And couldn't help but be worried.

A few minutes past and Barbatos just kept going around looking at everything with Mammon following them close behind.

And Mammon was about to say something until Barbatos pull him over to the ballroom floor and into a ballroom dance and taking the lead role.

Mammon : sh-

Female Barbatos : just a few minutes more. I want to see if know how to dance"

Mammon : .....I....of course I know how? I'm great at everything...."

Female Barbatos : by how nervous you look I'd say you are lying and you suck at it "

Mammon :... what about you?"

Female Barbatos : horrible as well. But I think I have the hang of it"

Mammon wasn't sure what to say and felt kinda awkward since all he could do was look at them or avoid eye contact either way was awkward.
So he tried small talk.

Mammon : what's the power difference between you and the King?"

Barbatos : hmm?.... never thought about it. But he's king so by default he's all powerful.

But if I really wanted to I could probably overthrow him. But as much as that would be fun.

I don't want that. Plus this Diavolo guys seem good so wouldn't want to ruin that for him.

Poor guy though having this guy be his father"

Mammon : you mostly raised him"

Barbatos : good he's not like his father then. but I bet he has daddy issues from the guy"

Mammon : ........"

Female Barbatos : anyway let's get going"

After this Barbatos took Mammon's hand and walked away with him.

Later in the dungeon they were walking down the hallway to get to the office and as Mammon was walking around he notice Barbatos wasn't near him.

So he looked back and saw Barbatos frozen in place looking into a cell. Seeming almost frozen in fear and horrified as white as a ghost and looking sick.

He then walked over to see what was wrong and before he could say anything he was immediately horrified by what he saw.

It was a dead demon strap to a table with a bunch of rats eating it's intestines and guts from it's stomach.

And suddenly it click in Mammon's head. Barbatos mentioned getting taken in was a daily thing for him and getting tortured and such happened a lot.

And he realized the reason Barbatos was avoiding coming down here was because he was traumatized from how he was tortured and must of been tortured like this. The reason he hates rats.

Anyway after Mammon took Barbatos's hand and walked away with them to the office snapping them out of it.

Once in the office Barbatos took the book off a shelf and said.

Barbatos : here it is now we can go"

Mammon : are you alright?"

Barbatos : yeah wh-....oh....yeah I'm fine?...."

Mammon : you sure?"

Barbatos : ......we should go"

Diavolo's father : I knew you would show up eventually"
