Mafumafu could only stare at the redhead as he gripped his staff tightly. "I don't want to hurt, Sakatan... but if I don't then he might hurt Ama-chan!", Mafumafu thought as he fought in his mind on what to do.

*****

"I'm drowning...", the fishcake mumbled as Soraru only stayed still as he felt the doubt of Mafumafu drowning him as well. "What should we do now, Soraru?", he asked the raven-haired male.

"Mafumafu's emotions are overflowing. Fear. Regret. And much more. If you hadn't met Mafumafu this wouldn't have happened to him. If you do something it always ends bad.", he said as Soraru only sighed.

"This is why I hate befriending people..."

*****

Mafumafu suddenly felt himself getting pulled by the waist and his head was being pushed aside before he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his neck. "S-soraru-san?! What—", before Mafumafu could even continue to speak, the black liquid drowning Soraru's mind before suddenly appeared as it surrounded all of them.

"That... is not something I expected. What do you say, Luz— And you're gone...", Nqrse sighed when he noticed that the light-haired male has disappeared. "Soraru-san?! What is this?! Please stop!", Mafumafu pleaded as he noticed that he sunk to the ground.

He desperately tried to get up but then he noticed that all of this was his fault. He slowly retracted his hand and stopped struggling to survive as Sakata noticed this and panicked.

He quickly took Mafumafu by the wrist as he tried to pull the albino up while holding onto the strings that Nqrse had let down to rescue him.

"Sakata... helping the enemy is not something you should do.", Nqrse warned the redhead who ignored the pink-haired male.

"I don't care! Mafudon! Try to pull yourself up! I don't think that I can hold you up much longer! Tell Soraru-san, that all he has to do is to kill is me.", Sakata shouted as Mafumafu widened his eyes in surprise. "But... didn't you want me dead?", Mafumafu asked as the other male shook his head.

"I only said that because I wanted you to hate me and so you wouldn't hurt yourself!", Sakata explained as the albino could feel tears of relieve well up in his eyes.

He quickly turned towards the ravenette as he saw how much Soraru was struggling. He wanted to shout at the raven-haired male to stop this. But before he could even utter a word, the black liquid disappeared, no longer drowning them.

And he looked at Soraru to see that he was just being shot at. Mafumafu widened his eyes when he saw the older male slumping down on the floor.

"A shot?! From where did it come from?!", Mafumafu asked as he looked up when he heard someone talking.

"Good job, Mashi. Let's go then.", a person said as he jumped down with his partner.

Mafumafu sat there startled as he looked up at the purple-haired male taking out his guns before he shot at everyone.

Sakata stumbled startled as the purple-haired male noticed this and pointed his gun directly at the red-haired male.

But before he could shoot the bullet through Sakata's head, some strings pulled him away which caused him to fall flat on his face though.

"Thanks for saving me, Nqrse-chan... Please try to not let me fall next time though...", Sakata reminded the pink-haired male who just giggled before humming.

"I will think about it, Sakata-chan~", Nqrse chirped as Sakata jumped up where Kuro and Nqrse were waiting for him.

"Wait! Sakatan, you meant it, right?! If so, we can still stay friends, right?!", Mafumafu asked as Sakata halted and turned over to give the albino a pained look.

"Tell Ama-chan that I'm sorry.", Sakata only replied and Mafumafu wanted to shout at the redhead to wait but they already disappeared. Colon slowly propped himself up as he walked over to Satomi and shook him awake.

"Satomi-kun... Satomi-kun, are you awake?", Colon asked as the pink-haired male opened his eyes weakly and nodded. "I am going to bring us back to the dorm now so give me a hand.", Colon said and the older male only nodded in response.

The blue-haired male thought about asking Mafumafu and Soraru to go with him.

But he noticed that the other pair was here as well and he guessed that had to talk some things through with each other.

"I am going to bring Satomi-kun to Lon-chan now so she can treat his wounds. You guys talk through everything and you, Nii-san, can explain everything to me tomorrow or over text.", Colon said as the ravenette hummed in response.

"A-alright... I'm sorry for all of this that happened today.... I'm really sorry...", Mafumafu apologized as he looked down guiltily and Colon only huffed nodding. "Don't apologize when you're not at fault. That makes me kinda mad!", Colon exclaimed as Mafumafu widened his eyes surprised before he merely nodded in response.

The blue-haired male only nodded satisfied before he disappeared with Satomi leaving Soraru and Mafumafu with their rescuers.

"A-Ah, thanks for rescuing us.", Mafumafu thanked them as he bowed several times as the blond only waved his hands dismissively.

"It's fine. It's only natural to help each other out, isn't it?", he assured as the albino nodded after a while. "He's kinda cute, isn't he? You chose a cute eve, Soraru~", the other male chirped and Mafumafu gave a confused noise when his chin was suddenly being lifted up.

Mafumafu blushed confused as Soraru only sighed and the blond sighed at the same time as the ravenette at him.

"You've got it hard being the eve of him, huh?", Soraru asked as the blond only chuckled and shook his head. "It's fine after getting used to it.

I still can't get used to him flirting all the time though.", he said chuckling.

"Oh, I haven't introduced myself yet, have I? My name is Senra. I am the eve of the Servamp of Lust.", Senra introduced himself as Mafumafu got pulled away from the purple-haired male by Soraru. He quietly thanked the older male before he bowed and spoke up again.

"Nice to meet you! My name is Mafumafu!", Mafumafu introduced himself.

The albino then looked at Soraru who only sighed but nodded. "...Soraru. I'm the Servamp of sloth and I am the Servamp of him.", Soraru informed them as he pointed at the younger male.

"Looks like I an the only one who hasn't introduced myself yet~", the purple-haired male chirped as he stepped closer to the albino and took his hand before placing a kiss on it.

"I am Shima. The Servamp of Lust~ It is a pleasure to meet you.", Shima introduced himself as both Senra and Soraru only sighed while Mafumafu blushed when that happened.

"E-eh? Um, it's n-nice to meet you as well...", Mafumafu mumbled. "Mashi, you are making him uncomfortable. Get away from him please.", Senra told the older male who nodded and got away from the albino who breathed out in relief.

Shima returned back to Senra's side as he put an arm around the blond.

"I'm sorry, Senra~ I will put all of my attention to you now~ And in exchange... will you give me your blood?", Shima asked as he unbuttoned Senra's shirt until the shoulder was revealed and Soraru covered Mafumafu's eyes when he saw how Shima leaned closer to the blond.

Before he could even drink a drop of Senra's blood though, the blond pushed him away.

"Not now, Mashi. You're going to disturb poor Mafumafu-san and Soraru-san.", Senra warned the older male who only whined.

"But you almost never let me drink your blood! I just fought a lot so I think I deserve at least some blood.", Shima exclaimed as Senra sighed.

"Fine. Go ahead then.", Senra said and Shima's expression brightened up momentarily until he noticed that Senra held his wrist towards the purple-haired male.

"...Senra, you know that I don't want to drink from your wrist...", Shima muttered as Senra dodged Shima who tried to get back to his neck.

"The last time I let you do that, it ended weirdly. Do you actually think I wouldn't know what you're up to? You are the Servamp of Lust for god's sake!", Senra sighed as Shima continued to whine.

"What's so bad about it? I mean while I was drinking your blood you—".

"Ok, that's enough flirting for today. You guys can continue about whatever you were talking about when you get back to your dorm. Just get back to the topic and tell us what you want to say or else we'll go home for today.", Soraru interrupted them quite annoyed.

Senra nodded blushing slightly as he coughed to regain his composure while Shima only clicked his tongue before nodding.

"Well, I'm just here to give you a small warning after I saw how much you struggled. If you are going to continue being scared and think you don't want this kind of power then... your Servamp is going to eat you with skin and bones... You could still undo the contract of course.

But I don't think that you'd want that to happen. Well, I just wanted to warn you because I am a bit more experienced when it comes to this. I don't want to see anyone end up in any bad way...", Senra said as he looked to the side.

"Who are you...", Mafumafu asked but the blond didn't understand the question as he just tilted his head. "My name is Senra. I am just some art student who likes to paint. Anyways, I will go back now.", Senra informed them as Shima only took the blond's hand when he heard that and used the other hand to wave at the Sloth Pair.

"See you sometime in school then~ If you need to talk to me, you can find me with Senra here or in dance class.", Shima informed them.

"Eh? Dance class? Are you having dance classes with Ama-chan, I mean Amatsuki?", Mafumafu asked as Shima thought about it before nodding. "Now that I think about it, it's that brunette that is so cheerful, huh? He's kind of cute~", Shima chirped and Senra sighed as he pulled Shima's hand away and walked ahead.

"I will go ahead. You can continue talking to him about what you want. Just be careful and watch the time.", Senra mumbled before he walked ahead.

Shima looked after the blond before looking back at Mafumafu who only gave him a look which made him laugh.

"Don't worry, I won't do anything to Amatsuki~ I may flirt with many other people a lot but Senra is the only one for me.", Shima told Mafumafu as he put his index finger against his lips smiling as the albino widened his eyes before nodding.

"I see... See you sometime soon then.", Mafumafu told Shima who nodded. Before he left though he stopped as he turned around again.

"Oh, and be careful of people around you now. You seem like you trust people pretty easily and that can be a good thing. At the same time, it can be a fatal weakness if you don't handle it correctly.

So my advice to you is to be more careful and to start getting more determined in case you don't want to end up like Senra told you.

After all, clueless children who have just got their powers are the most dangerous... Don't you think so as well?"

*****

Satomi blinked a few times before he opened his eyes completely to see that he was surrounded by the familiar wine-red walls of his room.

He looked to the side to see that Colon was sitting there reading some old script.

When he noticed how the older male was awake though, he packed his script away as he turned his attention to the other male.

"You're finally awake! How long were you going to make me wait?", Colon asked exasperated as Satomi only chuckled while he sat up.

They both knew that Colon wasn't actually annoyed but really worried instead.

"Sorry. Would you mind explaining if something important happened after and if everyone is alright?", Satomi asked as the younger male nodded. "Nii-san and everyone else are fine.

After the Melancholy team escaped, I brought you back here and that's where Lon-chan tended your wounds.", Colon explained.

"...Is your arm alright? It was torn off, wasn't it?", Satomi asked as the younger male nodded and stemmed his hands onto his hips.

"Yeah, but because I am such a great Servamp I have recovered already! But you aren't! So go to sleep now! I will write an excuse for the two of us to stay in the dorm for tomorrow.", Colon told him as Satomi nodded, muttering a thanks.

There was a short silence where they could only hear the scribbling of Colon before Satomi started to speak up again. "Say, Colon. Do you think, Mafu-kun is alright?", Satomi asked.

"Huh? I think so. He wasn't that badly injured so he should be fine.", Colon answered as Satomi shook his head in response.

"No, I meant emotionally. His best friend betrayed him today... I just hope he'll be fine."

*****

"Mafumafu, are you not going to go to classes today?", Soraru asked the next morning as Mafumafu didn't answer and only buried himself more into his blankets.

"I will go to your class again today so I will just tell the teacher that you're not feeling well.", Soraru informed the albino who nodded.

"Thanks, Soraru-san.", Mafumafu thanked him. "It's fine. I got some coupons for a sushi shop so we are going to go together there later, alright?", Soraru said as the younger male nodded.

There was a short silence before the ravenette broke it. "...Do you regret forming a contract with me?", Soraru asked and Mafumafu wanted to say something. But for some reason, he just couldn't. Soraru's next words shocked him as he regretted not saying anything.

"Of course you do. What did I even expect?", Soraru asked and Mafumafu immediately sat up to deny it. He wanted to tell Soraru that he didn't regret forming a contract with him.

He wanted to tell Soraru that he was glad to have met him. But before he could even open his mouth to say something, Soraru had already exited the room leaving Mafumafu alone in the dorm.

The albino hugged his legs as he buried his face into his knees trying to hold in his tears. "That's not the case, Soraru-san... Not at all..."

*****

"Mafumafu? I'm back. We can go and eat dinner now. You must have been starving.", Soraru said when he came back.

And with that they walked to the sushi shop silently without anyone saying anything after that.

Mafumafu silently sat down next to Soraru and looked at the plates before he decided to take one. When he reached towards it though, someone else did as well as he looked at the person and wanted to tell them that they could take it. When he saw who it was though, he widened his eyes as the other person mirrored the expression as well.

"Eh?! Luz-san?!", Mafumafu exclaimed as the light-haired male only laughed lightly as he took a sushi and ate it like meeting each other was normal. "Ah, Mafumafu-san. Fancy meeting you here."
