The crackling flames of the candle light dimmed the spacious cell-like room as the young fifteen-year-old teenager groaned in his sleep. His eyes fluttering open, he moved to rub his face with his hands only to see that they were restrained behind him with several different bandages and piss-yellow colored strips of paper. 

His eyes widened, "H-Hey!! What's going on here?! Where am I?!" the teen's questions were left unanswered, but the sudden creaking of a door opening inside the room made him jolt out of his surprise.

A man with purple-hued hair with dark maroon highlights bounced over to the single chair in the middle of the room. Sitting right in front of the very very confused teenager. 

"Where the hell am I?" 

Yet again, his question was left unanswered as the childish-looking adult in front of him grinned widely, swinging his right leg over his left with a slight sway of his feet. 

"My my, you're a feisty one, aren't you~?" the unnamed man teased, chuckling darkly when the teen retaliated, trying to back up against the large metal post he was tied to. "Anyway, moving onto the execution---"

"EXECUTION?!! WHy in the flying FuC---" 

"Now now, that's no way to talk to grown-ups~," The purple-haired stranger's voice got deeper as he appeared behind him in an instant, whispering in the teen's ear. "Moving on, I'll read out your case in great detail that way you know what you did exactly! Deal? Alright!" The stranger didn't even give the teen a chance to agree as he snapped his fingers, a puff of light lilac smoke filling the room. 

The teenager coughed, squinting his eyes to look through the smoke only to find himself in a completely different room with a lot more people dressed in strange black ropes and armed with guns and staffs, some even with a large dusty-looking books.

"Yuuji Itadori, age 15, not really on the high side of academics but excels with Physical Education and C-D graded student. Quite the scores you got there, Mr. Itadori," the stranger from before cackled, he was seated lazily on a podium with his legs strewn across the polished dark oak desk. 

"Listen--"

"Continuing on, I hear that you are in possession of a very very powerful and dangerous Cursed item and we need that to be returned to us immediately. We will know if you're lying." The stranger's tone of voice changed in an instant, the serious and cold feeling etching onto his childish expression. 

Wiping out any side of playfulness like it was never there in the first place. 

"And because you're aren't boring me, I'll give you a second to examine the photo of the cursed item." 

"Why should I answer questions from a guy I don't even know?" Yuuji's question startled the men and women of the council behind the childish exorcist. 

"Man, you really aren't boring, are you?" the purple-haired exorcist smirked, snapping his fingers once more as he hovered in the air in front of the high-schooler. 

"Name's Mephisto Pheles, remember that name, got that sweetheart? Now that you know my name, we're best friends!! We've dragged this execution on long enough~, let's get to the chase, yeah?" Mephisto smirked, humming lowly as he brought up a phone, turning on to reveal the picture. 

There was a bandaged wrapped small item in a mahogany wooden box with a black velvet inside. 

Yuuji's eyes widened, "T-that thing...was cursed?" 

Mephisto nodded, humming lowly at the expression the teenager was making. 

"That...That thing, I..I ate it." 

A moment of brisk silence filled the air. Mephisto's eyes widened when he realized that the teen wasn't joking, nor was he lying. 

"You..you WHAT?!!?!!"

Back to the beginning of that day.

"Yuuji!!" the call of one of his friends made the light-haired brunette smile widely, glancing over his shoulder to face the black-haired teen. He had been friends with Rin Okumura for a while now, maybe a few weeks but they met during one of the times that the unfortunate teen had been fired from his job at a car wash. 

Of course, they clicked right away, they both had bad grades, hated school, bad at working with others, and over all they shared the same brain cells. 

The day was getting a little later as the sun began to set, the two were walking side-by-side near a park with the black-haired teen's bike in between them. 

"How's that new job going for you?" Rin asked with a knowing grin, Yuuji sighed deeply and rolled his shoulders. 

"Don't even get me started, listen, my boss told me that i'm..." Yuuji paused, covering the lower face of his face as he prepared himself for what he was about to tell the teen next to him. Rin stifled his obnoxious laughter behind his wide palm and nodded, gesturing for the teen to continue. 

His face grew serious as he turned to the Black-haired teenager. 

"She told me that I was like a Gorilla despite being so skinny." Yuuji's expression darkened as the shadows on his face grew darker in a split second, flaring his nostrils and frowning deeply to convey the woman's point. 

Rin gaped at him before tilting his head back not even bothering to hide his loud cackling as Yuuji smacked his shoulder in response. 

"Man! You had it bad--" Rin was interrupted by a Arrow zooming by his face and hitting the tree a little ways in front of him. Yuuji's expression changed from the Gorilla-like face to a deep glare and a minuscule frown. 

"OI! What the hell are you guys thinking? Shooting at people like that," Yuuji starts, stomping over to the group of teenagers before he caught sight of the dead birds on the ground. His face went blank as he looked down at the teens, "killing such innocent birds. I'LL HAVE TO TEACH YOU PUNKS A LESSON!!!" Yuuji's usually calm nature completely changed, shouting as he pounced on one of the boys. 

Aiming his arm high in the air as his expression contorted and fist tightened. 

Rin joined in shortly after, the fighting and rough-housing knocking a few screws loose in both Yuuji and Rin. 

"YOU DEMON!!--" another punch to the face interrupted the guy that Yuuji was perched up on. Finally having enough, Yuuji moved off of the badly beaten teenager and yawned tiredly, his bottom lip bleeding and left cheek red from one of the teen's hitting his face. 

Rin's fist caved the leader's face in slightly as he knocked him back into the metal fence. The guy that was under Yuuji scrambled to help his comrades but didn't get far from the light brunette as he grabbed his ankle and lifted from off the ground, shaking him until everything fell out of his pockets. 

He tossed the guy carelessly as he grabbed ahold of the guys wallet and tossed it into one of the farthest dumpster, thankfully not embarrassing himself as the accessory made it inside with no resistance. 

Rin whistled lowly, his hand flattening near his brow as he squinted. 

"That one went far this time, huh?" Rin casually questions. 

Yuuji smirked and winked towards the cowering teens before he mouthed the word, "BOO."

Scared and injured, the three teens fled, leaving behind Rin and Yuuji behind to observe the mess that they left. 

"Hey, Rin," Yuuji starts, the black-haired teen hummed, "let's give them a proper death." 

Rin hummed again, waiting patiently as the brunette used his bare hands to dig proper graves for the white doves. 

"Those guys are the real demons..." Rin mumbled to himself quietly before he wiped away his bloody nose. His azure blue eyes flickered to his bloodied knuckles and to Yuuji's wounds as well before sighing.

"We did it again.." he droned in a long whine.
