The person who threw a huge chuck of rubble to the girl walk to ward theen that been tied up with an agreed expression.
"Fools." She growl.
"You were stupid enough to get caught by some bug." The woman continue to spat as she lower down to them.
"Saving you is a waste of time."
Might as well grab this money and go before anyone-
The demon woman thought to herself but stop when she notice that the rubble she tossed had just flown past her from where the girl she assumed she finished off came out in one piece and that frighten her.
"I gotta say I'm impressed." The girl said with a big grin.
"You managed to piss me off!"
That woman... The demon thought in terror.
That woman is not human! The demon woman jump back then slam her fist to the ground.
"Th-There's no way!" The demon shout and went for a punch but the woman dodge.
"Why so lively?" She ask as she just dodge her punches and kicking. The demon then goes for one more punch but the girl caught it with ease.
"This is really all your strength?" She grumbles as she ignore the scared demon.
"Annoying! Might as well knock you out before you go and destroy other stuff." She said before grabbing the collar of the demon's shirt and kneed her stomach.
Knocking all the air out she then use her arms to slam her back to bring her down.
"Honestly..." She yawn as the authorities are now arriving.
Meanwhile with demon boi...
Alright Akira, time to finish up the choirs for today.
Akira is thinking to himself as he finish vacuuming. While the woman does her job he is at home fixing the place up. He had to now go pick up the trash from the rooms with trash cans to take out.
He had enter the woman's room and gawk when he notice how untidy it has become again.
"I keep telling her she should do this first before heading down." He huff a bit first then went ahead and fix up her room. Picking up the plushies, remotes, and the blankets back on her bed.
"There we go!" He beam in delight to see the room pretty much shining.
"I'm home!" He heard the shouting downstairs. The demon boy grab the trash bag and head downstairs.
"Akira?" She shouted before flopping on the couch, changing back from her transformation.
"Welcome back. I saw some of the news about the brawl on the picture show." Akira responded as he came into view.
"More like a waste of my time." She claim as she moan onto the cushions like a teenager.
"Was the battle not to your satisfaction?" Akira ask but she declined.
"Nothing like that." She lift her face up.
"By the way it's a television, not picture show anymore." Upon correcting him she had notice the trash bag in his hand and put two in two together on why he was upstairs.
"Did you clean my room, again? I thought I told you I would get it when I can."
"I had to grab the trash anyway."
"You really didn't have too..." She mumbled a bit.
"It's quite alright." Akira chuckle lightly before he open the door outside.
"What other chores do you have left? I can help with whatever else you need to do." The female asked and Akira stop for a moment.
"The Landry is only left. Which reminds me it should be done any minute now."
"I'll grab it." She got up with a stretch and left to the Landry room garage. The woman grab the clothing after making sure it's all dry and toss it into the basket to take to the living room.
It was pretty silent for a while until she decided to speak and start a conversation.
"So Akira, is there any thought of what your next move is?" She asked and Akira nodded.
"I'm afraid not." He said, feeling a bit disappointed in himself.
"What would you recommend?" He decided to ask.
"Me? Well..." She trails and held her chin.
"Not sure. Graduate and goto college? I mean, that's how it is in this day and age if you want to perfect your dreams." She says.
"However I don't know how that will work with demons. If I remember correctly every 100 years or so they have to like requalify or get new IDs... I think.... I really don't know much of that."
"Hey, I know! What's something you've always wanted to do when you grew? We can start from there." She prompt and had Akira stop folding.
"Oh..." Akira mumble and look away a bit.
"I... I don't know. The only thing I really wanted to do is-" He cut himself off then shock his head.
"That no longer matters anymore."
"What? Are you sure, I'm sure it's not too lat-"
"Sorry but, would it be okay to drop this topic?" Akira ask with sad smile. The woman is taken aback but did so. The two of the quiet again and the air was pretty thick.
"Oh right, Akira! What dessert are you making this time for dinner?" The woman broke the silence again to remove the awkwardness.
"Cheesecake." Akira respond with a bit of happier tone.
"I was thinking of using the milk and eggs but we ran low. Thanks to the ingredients you brought that, we'll-" Akira was cut off but a big gasp and look at the woman who had the most horrified expression.
"I forgot..." She held her hair.
"I totally blanked! I was so annoyed by HIM." She shouts to herself before she got up.
"I'll be right back! I'll text my him to give me a ride, he owns me that!" She grab her phone and heads to the door with her wallet in her pocket.
"Would it be alright if I could join you?" Akira ask. He had gotten up and follow her to the door to put his shoes on.
"You want to what?"
And just like that he is in front of the store with her. The two of them had got out the car then head to the sliding doors.
"Akira, you didn't have to come with me." She says, feeling a bit down.
"I'm sorry. I'm such an idiot." Akira notice how sad she become, watching the woman grab the basket.
"You don't have to apologize." Akira tries to assure her.
"Forgetting common tasks can happening to everyone. You don't have to fret about it." Akira has them gently took the basket.
"Throughout the first month I have not left the house so I wanted to explore for once."
"Oh... well, okay then." She said as she held her arm and she guilds Akira to the milk.
"Since we are here, do you want a snack or anything before we go?"
"A snack? Not really." Akira says.
"I don't really need to eat. I'm a demon, remember?" He then stop for a second then smile.
"But if I had to think of a 'snack' I am very fond of strawberries."
"Strawberries? They just so happen to be on sale." The woman said and waved to him.
"Cone on, they're near the entrance." The two of them go to the sale table with strawberries.
"I notice lately you have been putting strawberries in the breakfast. More usually on your plate." She added and he chuckle shyly.
"Tell you what, if you want, we can take as many as you like."
"Really?" He said a bit excited.
"Well if it's all right..."
When they got all they needed the two go to a register which he was surprised with their choice of products.
"I'm guessing you have everything you need?" The cashier said as he stares 16 packs of strawberries.
"Yes."
After she paid they leave the store and walk down the street. They notice the car isn't back yet from the woman's brother so they had to wait.
"You know since my brother might take a while to come back, where do you want to explore first?"
"I do not really know where to begin." Akira responds.
"Being trapped in the crystal for 200 years, I did not expect so much change. Apologize for my rudeness, but humans do take forever to develop new things."
"In honestly, I am quite impressed with the development, including the new way of talking." Akira said as he looked around the town.
The woman turn and notice a drink shop since she got a bit thirsty.
"I think I know a good place to start."
The woman lead him to the small restaurant and he reads the menu.
"What is bo... ba tea?" Akira ask with curiosity.
"If we can, we like to order a strawberry and taro boba tea, please." The woman ask the woman at the counter.
"It's no problem. I'll have it ready right away."
"Boba tea was made around the time you were trapped." The woman stated.
"If it makes feel better they were around before I came along."
"Your order is ready!" The employee came back with two drinks and the woman paid the order.
"Thanks, keep the change."
The two leave the place as the woman held their drinks. She then turn and extend it to Akira.
"Wanna try it before that dumb*** show up?"
"That dumb*** is here, you know?" Someone spoke and got their attention. It was her brother that spoke and wore a suit. He just so happen to look identical to the woman.
"Yeah yeah, let's go." The woman said an too a sip of her drink as she got to the car. Akira follows and sip his drink, which he enjoyed very much.
Her twin brother joined in and the drive starts to take them home.
"Hey so what was the deal with all those robbers?" The woman asks with crossed arms.
"Before taking out those last three, they were like many non threatening and most didn't even have any money."
"I know, you know more is going on."
"You need to stop being so curious. I have my orders, like you have yours." He said and she just glared at him.
"You know I'm not gonna stop asking, right?"
"And I have my job, you know?" He answered back before a strike of lightning hit closely to the car but luckily the driver stopped in time.
"As do you." The brother said as the three of them stare at a bad guy in the air with red electrical energy. It almost seems like she is absorbing the energy in the small area.
The woman sigh and used the car as a cover to transform and then went to the cover on the roof to get out quickly.
"Thanks to the distraction I think I got enough power." The woman with split hair colors said, who is taking the electricity in that block. She wore a white cloak and a blue suit with white gloves.
"Time to get out of-" The pink/purpled haired woman cut herself off when she notice a blur go above her.
The woman had out an blue glowing shotgun and shot out a big glow of energy that swirled and almost shaped up to be a heart. The cloaked bad woman move away on time as she watch the brown haired heroine land on top of the roof.
'who the hell is that?' The bad woman glares at her.
'Whoever she is, they're gonna ruin the plan. I should deal with her now!'
'I gotta the energy I got now to put her down!' The bad guy shout as she got out a big bolt of energy and shot it at her.
'even if we have similar power she can't survive this!'
'All that energy I can't absorb.' The small woman said and she bend her knees and got into a fighting kind of stance.
Holding her right arm out with two finger and instead of absorbing she guild it and had it flung into the air in ease.
'She stood her ground and deflect it into the sky?!' The bad guy said with wide eyes.
'That's not possible!' The bad guy saw her leap at her with real fast speed.
She's fast! The bad guy couldn't react and she is kicked into the street. The attack was so strong it left cracks on the road.
'Damn...' The bad guy grunt. She is pinned down with one leg and a gun pointed to her.
'The way she moves...
Why does it look so familiar?'
"I don't have time for this." The bad guy cling her tongue and suddenly she just turn into red energy.
"What the..." The heroine gasp and saw it fly toward a roof to a business.
"You need to stop picking your nose into things you don't understand. Otherwise everyone that you love will end up in danger." The bad guy warns before she disappeared from her vision.
"So she can travel turning her body into electricity?"
She's using too much power to do that....
She thought as she revert to the original form.
"So that explains the robbing and outrages that have been happening." The heroine's brother says after he got out of the car with Akira.
"There's also rumored that there is a dangerous serum stolen from a secret lab." He said the sentence a bit quietly to her sister then head back to the car.
"You didn't hear that from me."
"Are you all right?" Akira ask her.
"Yeah, let's just go home." She respond and her stomach growl.
"I'm hungry."
"Mexican curry sounds pretty good right now."
"You mean Mole, right?" Akira corrected as they got to the car.
Meanwhile...
The bad woman from before had escaped into some big building. With her cloak still up, she walks toward a door and someone was waiting to the side with a big grin.
"You're late." He starts to teas hr as she walked off.
"Boss man isn't gonna like your tardiness."
"Mind your business."
"I'm just trying to warn you for your own good..." He claims, having his arms behind his head to support from the wall.
"You signed up for this, remember..."
"Ymir?"
As for Akira and the twins.
The female had finally given in to the sleep and fell over to Akira's side. Her brother saw how tired she was and sigh out of frustration and what seem like anger.
"She's a pain in my a**, but I wish sometimes I was born with her power." He says freely.
"I was the one who signed up for the job, not her."
"It wasn't fair she got dragged in."
"Even if you guys are the age of adulthood, you two are very remarkable humans I've ever met." Akira comments.
"Even your high intelligence and with her incredible and movement, the government should of waited to recruit you..."
"Even some humans still lack humanity."
