Simon sobbed into his hands as Beelzebub watched complete horror.

"You........you abandoned your family?" She uttered.

"Get out of my house!!" Simon suddenly snapped tearfully. "Just get the fuck out!!"

"Simon! Please talk to me!" Beelzebub pleaded. "It's okay! I won't tell anyone!" Simon started to calm down a little. He slowly got up and sat down on the couch. Beelzebub sat next to him.

"My baby sister, Lacy, was brutally murdered." Simon finally confessed, causing Beelzebub to gasp in complete utter horror. More than ever. "My Mom remarried and she was pregnant with a baby girl." Simon continued. "She named her Lacy after my great grandmother. I loved her to death. She had Mom's eyes. I spent every single day taking care of her like she was MY daughter." Simon began to tear up and trembled. "I loved Lacy. I wanted nothing but her and Mom's happiness. But, when my Step-dad left her, a part of her died inside, so I became the head of the family. I loved and cared for my Mom and Lacy and made sure they were happy. We did things together all the fucking time..." He started trembling even more.

"Hey, hey, it's okay." Beelzebub said with a soft tone. "It's okay..."

"One day," Simon continued, getting ready to break, "on Lacy's first ever birthday, we hired a babysitter to watch Lacy while we went to get a birthday cake. We found a cake that was perfect for my baby sister. When we arrived home, SHE WAS MURDERED!!!" Beelzebub gasped in horror with tears flowing from her eyes. "And......the babysitter was murdered too!" Simon said, causing Beelzebub to cry more.

"I freaked out like crazy!" Simon continued, yelling. "She was my family! I loved her and she was killed by some sick piece of shit! I mean, who would kill a BABY?!! I couldn't handle what happened, so I turned to drinking! I drank and I drank and I drank, but it didn't help! So, I left Mom...! Then, a few days later, I found out that Mom committed suicide. I blamed myself every single day for my family getting torn apart, so I drank harder, even while driving. I crashed into another car, but survived. I was arrested and, eventually, a friend named Steven bailed me out. I knew I would never move on if I stayed home, so I decided to move out and Steven recommended that I work at the University and that's how I'm here. That's how you and Loona met me..." Beelzebub was horrified by the whole story.

"H-How could you do that to your Mom? After everything you did for your family and after everything she went through?" She cried. "How could you do such a thing...?"

"I just couldn't handle losing my baby sister...!" Simon cried. "It was too much for me. She was my whole world. Now, that she's gone, I. Have. Nothing!!" He sobbed into his arms. "You're right... I should've stayed with my Mom! I fucked up!" He sobbed. "I really, REALLY fucked up so hard!"

Beelzebub herself had tears flowing out of her eyes. Her mouth was trembling. Then, all of a sudden, she hugged Simon tightly with all four arms.

"I'm here." She said. "I'll never leave you. I promise..."

"...Why are you hugging me?" Simon asked softly. "This feels kinda awkward." "Well, get used to it." Beelzebub said gently, still hugging Simon. "Cause it's always gonna happen whether you're sad or not. I'll always be here for you. I promise..."

"Great, kid..." Simon muttered, still in tears. "Just great..." Beelzebub didn't stop hugging him. "You can let go now, Beelzebub." Simon said.

"Just a few more seconds." Beelzebub said softly. After those seconds, Beelzebub finally let go of Simon.

"Just one more thing." Simon started. "How come you told me you didn't hear the fire alarm when you clearly did?" Beelzebub sweated with nervousness. Thankfully, Simon didn't notice.

"I....I was in the can and I had headphones on. Noise canceling headphones." Beelzebub lied. "Do NOT go in there!"

"Okay, you're gross!" Simon exclaimed. "But, we should get to the police station and find Loona. Now."

"Right. Can't have Loona in peril." Beelzebub said. "Come on." She ran out the door with Simon walking from behind. Then, he stopped in his tracks.

Did she just say......she loves Loona? He thought. But........she's a girl. They both are...

"Wait!" Beelzebub cried. "I already searched the damn station!"

"Remember what Dr. Puzzle said?" Simon pointed out. "He said she was in a room without a door. Maybe she's hidden within the walls or there's some kind of secret door somewhere in the station."

"Oh, right." Beelzebub said. "Let's go."

Meanwhile...

Loona laid on her side. Feeling extremely drained. Starving and thirsty. Another cockroach passed by her, but she didn't bother trying to eat it as she was too weak to move.

"Beelzebub..." She moaned weakly. "Simon....... Help me....... I'm...........dying..........." She slowly, slowly closed her eyes.

Meanwhile...

When Simon and Beelzebub made it to the Police station, Beelzebub tried to open the door, but it was locked tight.

"Ah, shit, it's locked!" Beelzebub cried. "Guess we're gonna have to break the fuck in."

"Wait, wait, hold on a minute!" Simon said, standing in Beelzebub's way. "We're not breaking into the Police station! That's the exact same thing as saying, 'Hey, Cops! Can you please arrest me?!' I'm not gonna allow this."

"Loona is somewhere in there, Simon!" Beelzebub cried. "We HAVE to break in! If we don't, who the fuck knows what will happen to her!"

"It's not just that, but I'm pretty sure the station has an alarm system that will go off if we even try anything!" Simon said.

"Clearly, you haven't seen the work of experts like me." Beelzebub said, pulling out a lock pick and pin from her shorts. She walked up to the station's doors, picked the lock, and opened the doors. No alarm made a single sound.

"How did you do that???" Simon cried. "And, what about the alarm?!"

"Uh, I'm a demon. I can do anything. Like turn off the alarm without even touching it or triggering it." Beelzebub said, making Simon roll his eyes. "Now, come on. Let's find Loona!" Simon and Beelzebub went inside the Police station and searched the entire police station.

"Still can't find SHIT!" Beelzebub cried. "Now what?!" Simon started to think to himself.

"Wait!" Simon exclaimed. "Remember what we were talking about? There was supposed to be a basement door right there!" He pointed at the wall across from him and Beelzebub where the basement door used to be.

"That's it!" Beelzebub exclaimed, a lightbulb shining over her head. "Something must've happened to the door. Maybe the basement is still there! I'm coming, Loona!!"

"Wait, don't!" Simon cried, but Beelzebub ignored him and started smashing the wall open countless times, finally revealing the basement.

"Loonaaaaaa!" Beelzebub yelled, running down the stairs. "Loo-! Oh my God, you're naked!" She finally saw Loona laying on the ground in the basement. "Loona?" She cried, shaking Loona's body. "Loona, wake up! Please wake up!! Loona?!?"

"What's happening down there?!" Simon cried, running down the stairs. "Did you find Lo-? WHOA!!" He covered his eyes as he noticed Loona completely naked.

"She's dying, Simon!" Beelzebub cried. "We gotta get her to a hospital now!"

"Right!" Simon said, pulling out his new phone. "But, we should get some clothes on her first."

When the ambulance arrived, the paramedics placed the now clothed Loona on a stretcher and put her in the ambulance with Beelzebub climbing into the ambulance and the ambulance drove off. Simon rode on the front seat of the ambulance. Please be okay, Loona. He thought.

An hour later...

Simon and Beelzebub sat in the waiting room hoping Loona would be okay. Simon sat seldom calmly while Beelzebub was shaking.

Please be okay, Loona! Beelzebub thought. PLEEEEEEASE be okay! A nurse appeared and walked up to Simon and Beelzebub.

"What's the news, doctor?" Simon asked, standing up along with Beelzebub. "Is she okay?"

".................Yes, she's gonna be okay." The nurse said. "We got to her just in time. We gave her enough food and water too. She's okay."

"Oh, thank God..." Simon sighed in relief. But, Beelzebub dashed into the doctors offices. Simon went after her.

Beelzebub ran into the recovery room and saw an awake Loona laying on a hospital bed.

"Loona!!" Beelzebub cried tearfully, running to Loona and embracing her in a hug. "Thank God, you're okay!! Thank fucking God..."

"Bee, you know I'd never leave you." Loona said, gentle for once. "I'm okay and so are you." Simon showed up standing across from Loona and Beelzebub.

"Glad to see you're okay, kid." Simon said. "I was worried about you myself. Glad you managed to stay alive."

"Honestly, Mr. Adams, nothing could stop me from staying alive. Death lost and I won." Loona said with a smile. "Hope Beelzebub didn't cause you TOO much trouble." Beelzebub laughed hysterically while Simon just rolled his eyes.

Ring!

"Excuse me, I gotta tame this." Simon said walking off and back to the waiting room and then outside the hospital. He then pulled out his phone and answered it, "Hello?"

"Glad to see ol' Loonie Tune is okay." Dr. Puzzle said over the phone. "Thought you wouldn't make it in time."

"Dr. Puzzle." Simon cried. "We saved Loona. We saved her from dying, so leave us the fuck alone."

"Still cussing I see. Even when you claimed you didn't like it." Dr. Puzzle joked sadistically. "As the scarecrow would say, if you only had a brain. And, as the tin man would say, if you only had a heart. And, as the lion would say, if you only had courage."

"Enough with the fucking riddles and tell me why are you doing this?!" Simon snapped. "There's no curse, there's no fucking hauntings, none of that! Just tell me why you are doing this!"

"You shouldn't be yelling at me, my friend." Dr. Puzzle said. "You should be yelling at Beelzebub and Loona. They're lying to you just as much as I am..."

"......What are you talking about?" Simon asked. "They're just college students."

"College students are just as selfish as teens, Mr. Adams." Dr. Puzzle said. "Trust me. They are both keeping the truth from you..." He hung up.

"Hello?!" Simon said. "Dr. Puzzle?? Answer me, you Christ forsaken piece of shit!!" No answer. What did he mean when he said Loona and Beelzebub are lying to me? Simon thought. Lying about what??? I.......don't understand...
