Demon and the Nun (Kiersa/Mary/Cirven/Aayla)

Mary sighed in relief, she was feeling much better now that Kiersa calmed her nerves considerably. The man was not going to kill her... yet anyways at least. She was actually going to try and escape to stay with Kiersa, but was distracted when a blue haired lady arrived and started arguing with the Demon Slayer. She was so surprised at the 2 that the next moment that she looked to her side, Kiersa was gone to the bakery. The nun left her with the one person that could kill her and the sister.

Mahoney sighed, what kind of situation did she end up in this time? Regardless she returned the handshake to the young girl, obviously the smarter of the 2 siblings. Mary said, "That is a beautiful dress you are wearing. It really suits you very well." She was going to talk more about designs and shopping, but Cirven started lighting his fingers on fire and turning them off. Mary in her mind perceived it as a threat like in the manner of 'you better not try anything funny with my sister demon.' Which was why Mary decided to step an additional 5 feet away from the blue haired male mage that never bothered to introduce his name yet.

"O..oh thank you. I just got it... I wanted something simple and easy to move in..."
She said softly, glancing down to her dress then back up to Mary only to find she had taken several steps away from them. For a moment she looked at her curiously, wondering if perhaps she had annoyed the girl by talking too much... but then, her eyes followed Mary's to find Cirven flicking flames onto his finger tips on and off.

"Don't worry... he really won't hurt you."
She brought her own hand up, forming a small little bubble of water to show her just what sort of magic she could use... well to some degree anyways. Before she scared the other girl, she quickly closed her hand around the bubble, causing it to vanish.

"Even if he does, he'll have to go through me first."
She said with a light smile before spinning on her heel to look at Cirven. Maybe she was being too hard on him... but it had been so long since she had felt any emotion of the sort... it was hard for her to forgive him...

Kiersa browsed through the bakers until she spotted the absolutely most perfect thing for the group to munch on, and also help Mary out of her mood for a little while. She quickly purchased eight of them, not even attempting to haggle with the baker's prices before she practically skipped out of the bakery and made her way back to her friends. When she got back, she was smiling, but that smile dipped a little at the scene in front of her. Cirven flicking fire around in his fingers, Aayla demonstrating a water bubble, and Mary a few steps back from each of them.

"E-everything g-going alright?" she asked of all of them before she opened up the bag and started to pass out the chosen item of perfection from the bakers. What was this most delicious thing that Kiersa had procured that she thought would help everyone's mood?

Strawberry Jam Donuts.

"I g-got two for e-everyone..." she said before a horrible thought crossed her mind before she looked over at Cirven and Aayla. "Umm.. f-forgot to a-ask... e-either o-of y-you... a-allergic t-to s-strawberries?"

He overheard his sister talk about how she would stop him if he tried to attack the new girl. He growled to himself at first and stopped playing with his flames. It was like she was against him at every turn and had no trust in him still even after she almost got him killed in their last job. He stood up and moved towards the them as Kiersa showed up with their food.

"Don't worry about me." He pulled out the money he thought that would cover the food and more then held it out to Kiersa. "For the food. I'm not that hungry anymore so just let Mary have my share. She needs it more than me." After giving the money to the blonde nun he started to walk away. "I'm going for a walk. I'll find you guys later."

"Ahaha okay then."

Mary still felt slightly awkward with the whole situation with being alone with 2 strangers. Aayla seemed niced, but the fire mage seemed to be an utter jerk. Complete opposites of one another, maybe it was time to bid adieau and be on her merry way...

...That was until doughnuts made an appearance.

Mary's eyes lit up and sparkled, grabbing her 2 doughnuts and started to happily unwrap them. Kiersa managed to spoil the girl as she managed to gift her with her favorite treat, doughnuts were Makers gift on the world! After a small silent prayer for the bounty she received, which caused her a headache, she munched on the first doughnut. As she started to finish the first doughnut, she received another one from the demon slayer. Was he trying to be nice to her? She looked down on the ground and asked, "Is there any room for someone as tainted as I am?" She couldn't believe what she was considering joining a guild, but it was either that or be alone for when Ursulla devoured her soul and take over her body. At least this way she would be slain before she got too many people killed and not rampage on civilians unchecked.

She then looked at Kiersa and stated, "And Kiersa, marry me!~" It was an old saying that Mary said when someone did something she absolutely loved, like giving her doughnuts.

"There's always room Mary!"
Aayla exclaimed with a bright smile on her face, having been absent for the whole conversation about demons and demon slayers and what not. She took the donuts from Kiera with a light blush. It definitely wasn't her favorite food, but she couldn't turn them down after she had gone through all the trouble of getting them for the group.

"Of course we're not allergic..."
She said in response to Kiersa as she finally bit down into the first donut, her taste buds greeted suddenly with the sweet strawberry filling. Aayla scrunched up her nose but attempted to continue to eat the pastry. It wasn't that she didn't like it... it was good! It was just so... bloody sweet...

Kiersa giggled as Mary immediately perked up at the mere sight of the donuts. “I r-remembered h-how much y-you liked them.” she said with a smile. She blinked a bit when Cirven handed her the amount she had paid for the donuts… and more, including handing over his ones to Mary. “Th-this is t-too…” she began to say before sighing as he had left. Kiersa put the jewels away into a separate pouch to return to him whenever he got back. Maybe giving his donuts to Mary was a peace offering maybe? She mused.

When Mary asked if there was room for her it took the nun a second to understand her meaning before hugging her. “Of course th-there is!” she said with a smile. “They l-let Cirven in a-after all.” she said with a smile towards Aayla, noting the scrunching nose. To understand what was going on she took a bite herself into her own strawberry donut and let out a small ah in realisation. “Th-they used a s-sweeter s-strawberry… eh, s-sorry.” she apologised towards Aayla, before giggling as Mary proclaimed her desire to wed the nun. Kiersa simply scooped out a bit of her strawberry jam from her donut and plopped it onto her old friends nose. “N-not for a-another t-two y-years yet.” teased Kiersa with a smile.

Cirven moved away from the group as they spoke happily. He wasn't in the mood to be around them and didn't want to ruin their fun with his mood. He hoped they would understand somehow. He turned a corner not too far away from the three girls and stopped as he heard a voice. "Hey mister!" He turned his head to a ice cream booth near him. "You want some great ice cream?" A girl who looked to only be around nine of ten years old spoke out to him from the booth. He smiled at her and nodded his head. "Yeah sure."

Somehow seeing the young girl had reminded him of his own sister when she was that age and helped to lighten up his mood. He gave the girl money for a couple scoops of vanilla ice cream with sprinkles. He gave her some extra for no reason. "Use that for something good." He gave her a wink and turned to walk away but stopped as he saw two crossbows aimed at him by some armor clad men. "We got him sir!" The small girl spoke out from behind him. "We got the filthy demon!"

"I honestly can't believe that worked. Your charm is really something else young lady. Good job Dieria." A bearded and armored man said as he stood behind the two men with the crossbows. "And I just started to not feel so annoyed. I'm a demon slayer you idiots." The bearded man laughed. "No you filthy beast. I am Lagen and a demon slayer. I lead these men here and more. I hunt you and kill you so that others don't get hurt. Your pointed ears are a clear give away of your demon essence as well as your dark aura. Pretty bad disguise if you ask me." Lagen grinned as he spoke.

"Hey boss! The demon detector talisman is pointing towards the way this guy came from. I bet there are more of them over that way." Dieria spoke out from behind Cirven. "Don't worry. I already sent some of the men over there to deal with them. We get to deal with this one though."

Mary just laugh as she wiped the glob of strawberry off her nose and procceded to eat the doughnut as the demon ex-nun hummed happily away. She was in doughnut heaven right now and was blushing madly right now, there was absolutely nothing that could destroy this happy moment!

She would be wrong.

As Mary unwrapped the last of the doughnut to eat happily on when she was slapped straight across the face and landing on top of her doughnut. The strawberry goodness squirted all over her jacket and stained it. She was was in shock and then quickly changing to anger.

"We know what you are dem-"

The demon hunter was not allowed to finish his sentence as Mary quickly got up activated her inner strength and kicked the hunter straight in man's pride. The man crumpled immediately in pain as he grabbed his crotch as the other 2 hunter just watched in fear. Mary angrily shouted, "THATS FOR RUINING MY DOUGHNUT YOU JERK!!!" And Kiersa of all people would know that Mary got violent when someone messed with her doughnuts.

Aayla looked up from the doughnut she had been nibbling at when she heard something strike skin nearby. She hadn't picked up on the hunters scents, thinking that they were only other passers by in town. Whenever she looked up to see Mary with a face full of doughnut though, she quickly stood to her feet, dropping her own doughnut, in preparation for what was to come. She didn't get to do or say much though as the first one was taken down with a simple kick to the nads.

"... nice shot... What is it you people want? Picking a fight with Sabertooth isn't the smartest idea."
Aayla warned the other two that were still standing while the first tried to recover. Did these people know Mary? Or where they merely thugs trying to start a fight? She really wasn't sure, but she began to grow uneasy knowing that Cirven was out of sight...

Kiersa gave a small squeak as Mary went into a rage. She went over to her friend and gently touched her shoulders. "C-calm d-down Mary p-please..." she asked softly, one hand reaching over to rub at where the man had slapped her. She turned her attention to the men, trying to figure out what was going on.

It was when she spotted something hanging from one of them that the nun's eyes widened. "Th-that's a d-demon t-talisman... I-I've only r-read about them..." said Kiersa, as she went to stand between the men and Mary. The nun looked over to Aayla for guidance on this one before she looked back to the men. "Wh-whatever y-you think y-you know... y-you're wrong..." said Kiersa, as she went over her spells as she tried to figure out what exactly they were going to do.

"That.. Bitch..!" The man who Mary had kicked tried to talk through the pain but could barely do that or even stand at first. He managed to stand up with his partners while still grasping at his manhood. "That one that kicked me is the demon right? I really want to carve her up right now!" He spoke out angrily as he stared at Mary.

"Boys, boys..." A voice came from behind the three men causing them to look back. "Boss Lagen! We said we could handle this." The man continued walking up to them and stopped as he was just behind them. A grin seemed to be glued to his face the entire time. "Oh yes, I know that. I just wanted to be here for support. I let Dieria and the others deal with the other demon we found earlier. That one looked like an idiot. Didn't even try to hide his pointed ears or anything. Never mind that though and continue."

The man who was kicked earlier by Mary put his focus back onto the three girls. "You! The one that kicked me! You are a vile and filthy demon that we will cleanse from this world! Prepare to die!" The three men lifted their crossbows up and aimed at the girl. "Make sure to use our holy arrows only on the demon! Switch to regular ones for the other two."
