During the plane trip to America, everything was mostly quiet. Annerose's group were offered snacks and refreshments from time to time by the planes co-pilot, a man who introduced himself as David Nagle, Irish like Seán, yet his voice was a bit deeper and sounded slightly slow.

Rikuro had occupied most of his time by laying on the couch and watching movies on one of the plane's own flatscreen TVs.

Annerose and Mitico had taken their seats at the two parallel tables behind the couch Rikuro sat upon. Annerose drank from some wine while Mitico sat in silence. From the demonic maid's position, she could see Evan lounging about in a bedroom section of the plane, earbuds in as he listened to various music on his smartphone.

Annerose and Mitico had been spying on Evan for some time now, Annerose giving a few sneaky glances at him every now and then while Mitico chose the more blunt route of eyeing him every two minutes.

Annerose took another sip of her wine before looking to Mitico. "You know, it isn't wise to eye our suspect the entire time. You may set him off."

Mitico glanced away with a tiny sigh before looking back at Annerose. "I know. But I can't help but feel like I've sensed him from somewhere, before. Back during my time in Hell."

"Despite that, we need to be careful." Annerose warned her demon maid. "I sense a powerful aura coming off of Mr. Fong. If we're not careful, he could take this whole plane down, with all of us in it."

"I know that, but still..." Mitico trailed off as she glanced at Evan before looking back at her master. "His aura feels way too familiar for me to simply let it go."

"Well, once the plane lands, and we're in a less crowded area, we'll confront him." Annerose said as she took another sip of her wine.

"Or, you know, you could just ask me right now." Evan said as he was suddenly right beside Annerose and Mitico. His sudden appearance caused Annerose to choke a bit on her wine in shock.

"Where did you—?!" Mitico was about yell about before Evan put a finger to his mouth.

"Shhh!" Evan sussed her. "Why do you gotta be so loud? I haven't even done anything."

Annerose had just finished her choking coughs before she looked at Evan, clearing her throat as she did so. "You're a demon from Hell. That's warrant enough."

"Eh, what can I say. I don't like lying, and my aura flares when I'm near anything demonic." Evan said with a shrug. "So we gonna talk here, or we gonna do this in private?"

As Evan asked his question, he pointed his thumb towards the bedroom he was just in.

Annerose and Mitico gave each other a glance before they both looked back at Rikuro, who had fallen asleep on the couch, the tv still on.

"Tsk. Lazy human." Mitico muttered with a scowl before she and Annerose looked back at Evan.

"Very well. Lead the way." Annerose said to Evan.

Evan replied by giving her a thumbs up before he walked into the bedroom once more, Annerose and Mitico right behind him as they had their respective weapons at the ready.

The moment the two demonic women passed through the door, Evan used his powers to close it by merely waving two of his fingers to the right.

Annerose and Mitico looked as the door close before they looked back at Evan as he was now sitting on the bed.

"Where to start?" Evan asked before raising a finger. "Actually, hold on. It might be quicker to understand if I show you what I really look like."

Just then, Evan became surrounded in a swirling smoke of red and white magic as his form started to change.

When the process was done, Annerose and Mitico widened their eyes at what they saw.

Before them was an owl-like demon with long legs, a slightly muscular build, and near-golden feathers. His eyes were completely yellow with a black beak, a white face, and black, horned feathers above his eyes. His outfit consisted of black gloves hands and a charcoal t-shirt under a red leather jacket with white shoulder pads and strips on his sleeves. His pants were black with knee pads while he wore custom-made red convers over his talon-like feet.

(A/N: This is my own original drawing. I made it by combining Vanoss's appearance in GTA V and Magic Tomato, along with Stolas's design. I don't have it colored because I don't have the right materials, but the description I gave should help.

Now, not to sound egotistical, but I would be lying if I said making this drawing was what delayed this story. The drawing was the easiest thing here.)

Evan, now in his true demonic form, looked at the shocked faces of Annerose and Mitico before raising his hand as if he was waving to them. "So, this is what I really look like... sup."

[There should be a GIF or video here. Update the app now to see it.]

"You—you're a member of the Goetia family." Mitico stutters out as she looked at the demonic form of Evan with widened eyes. "They call you the golden Goetia."

"You can just call me Evan." Evan said, waving Mitico off a bit. "Or, you can call me by my real name, Rynx. I'm not really into titles and all that."

"Rynx? I've heard of you." Annerose said as she slowly got out of her stupor. "You were renowned in Hell for your abilities to cause trouble with your devastating explosions, along with your skills in fire magic. But then suddenly, one day, you decided to forgo your position in trade for a career as a renowned musician."

"Eh. It was tough decision. On one hand, causing explosions and doing illegal stuff is fun. On the other hand, I really enjoy making music." Evan explained. "So I said "fuck it" and started making music."

"I heard that you were nearly cast out of the Goetia family before you went into your music career." Mitico said with a crossed arms. "And it's hard not to understand why. With you causing all sorts of trouble with your recklessness, you were dragging your family name through the mud."

"Oh, whatever. You're starting to sound like my cousin, Stella." Evan said with an eye roll. "So what if I caused a few explosions. Lucifer still likes me, and I know just about every Overlord in Hell. And besides, I never really liked all that prissy and posh, tea-time stuff like you guys and my family like."

"Is that supposed to be an insult?" Annerose asked with a raised brow.

Evan merely responded by shrugging his shoulders.

Annerose pinched the bridge of her nose a bit in annoyance before looking back at the owl demon. "Nevertheless, what's a member of the Goetia family doing here on Earth? I thought the only one who could that was Prince Stolas."

"Not true. Verosika Mayday gets to come up here every so often, and she's a succubus." Evan pointed out.

"...He's not wrong." Mitico said to Annerose after a moment.

Annerose merely shook her head before looking at Evan. "That still doesn't explain how another member of the Goetia family got up to Earth, let alone the Golden Goetia, Rynx."

"Henry used a spell to contact me, we made a deal, and asked Stolas for a favor." Evan said with a shrug. "Course I ran it by Lucifer first, and after that happened, bippidy boppidy, here I am on Earth. By the way, did you hear Stolas is cheating on his wife?"

"How is that news? Let alone, relevant Cheating was practically common practice in the Goetia family, last I checked." Mitico said with a huff.

"Yeah, but Stolas cheated on Stella with an imp." Evan clarified.

"Wha—Seriously?" Mitico asked in a shocked voice, suddenly taking interest.

Annerose looked between Mitico and Evan as she slowly raised her brow. "Are we really talking about this, right now?"

"Yeah, when I went over to Stolas's castle to use his book, He and Stella were going at it. Though it was really Stella who was angry the most. Reminds me why I don't visit her much often." Evan added.

"Okay, enough with the gossip." Annerose said before Evan could say anything else that wasn't relevant for the time being. "So, Henry Emily made a deal with you. What for?"

"Dude just needed my help in setting things up to catch that Afton guy." Evan said. "For starters, he needed Aishwarya Ray's number, cause there ain't no way you're gonna find that in a phone book, but after that all he needs me to do make sure that once Afton is caught, he doesn't escape."

"Well, if Mr. Emily made a deal with you, why does he need Lady Annerose?" Mitico asked.

"Wait, let me guess." Annerose said as he rose her hand, halting Evan from speaking. "He needs the extra help because you can't become too involved, otherwise you risk exposure, causing problems for Hell."

"I mean... I guess you can put that way." Evan said with a raised brow. "Though if we're talking about Hell involvement on Earth, that's pretty much flown out the window by now."

Annerose raised her brow at Evan as she crossed her arms. "What do you mean by that?"

Evan looked at Annerose before looking at Mitico and back. "Probably best to keep this on a low profile, but Lucifer's gotten concerned with the demons on Earth. He thinks they're getting a bit too wild, and he doesn't want to risk any heat from Heaven because of it. So he decided to send an Overlord up top to help deal with the problem."

"Oh great. First a member of the Goetia family, now an Overlord of Hell." Mitico sarcastically said with an eye roll.

"It ain't just any ordinary Overlord though. Lucifer sent up one of the big guns. The Radio Demon." Evan elaborated to Annerose and Mitico.

At that name, Mitico widened her eyes in shock and fear. "T-the Radio Demon? Lucifer sent up that sociopath?"

Evan nodded to Mitico as Annerose put a hand to her chin.

"Radio Demon?" Annerose asked. "I don't think I've ever heard of such a demon with that name."

"The Radio Demon is a very powerful sinner that became an Overlord the moment he first entered Hell." Mitico uttered with fear laced in her voice. "For a mortal soul... no sinner has ever had such power like the Radio Demon. He isn't a demon you think of crossing unless you want to die."

"Oh, Hell yeah. Alastor is one freaky dude. A cool guy, but still freaky." Evan said. "I heard he found someone to possess several years ago. After that, besides a few visits to Hell, he's been up top ever since. I pity the demons that get on his radar."

"So this Alastor? It take it he's not one to be trifled with?" Annerose asked.

"He's a spirit of mystery, and a vile monster of chaos." Mitico said with narrowed eyes. "The only one who could properly challenge him is another Overlord of Hell at similar power. I just pray that we never run into him while he's doing his job."

Before anyone could say another word, a knock was heard from outside the door.

Annerose and Mitico turned around to see the door open to reveal David.

"Everything alright in here?" David asked.

Annerose and Mitico quickly looked back at Evan, only to widen their eyes to see that he had already changed back into his human disguise.

"Nah, dude. We're cool. Just discussing some business, that's all." Evan waved David off.

"Anyone need anymore snacks, or something?" David asked.

Evan merely shook his head in answer before David looked to Annerose and Mitico. The two looked to each other before Annerose spoke to David.

"No. I think we'll be fine." She said.

"Okie dokie then." David replied back with a nod. "I'll leave ye to it."

With that, David left, closing the door behind him.

"That was close." Annerose muttered.

Evan then proceeded to stretch his arms as he let out a yawn. "Well, I think it's time to get some sleep. You two should probably do the same. Or don't. I don't care. We'll be in Texas sometimes tomorrow."

Evan then placed his arms behind his head as he lay down, closing his eyes, muttering one more sentence before going to sleep. "Don't forget your cowboy hats."

Mitico placed her hands on her hips as she rolled her eyes at Evan. "Careless Goetia." She muttered under her breath.

Annerose then stretched her arms as she too yawned. "Perhaps the Golden Goetia has a point. It's time to get some sleep."

"Of course, Lady Annerose." Mitico said as she placed her hands in front of her dress and bowed. "Would you like for me to fetch some of your evening wear?"

"Yes, very much so." Annerose said as Mitico opened the door for her as the two left Evan's room.

Closing the door behind her, Mitico went over to Annerose's second suitcase as her master entered into the bedroom beside Evan's.

Mitico opened up the suitcase to pull out a nearly see-through black night gown, accompanied by a black lingerie bra and panties.

Mitico walked over to the room Annerose chose, quick to open the door and close it behind her as Annerose had started to strip down from her usual wear, revealing her naked and bare body.

Mitico handed Annerose her evening wear, taking a good and hard glance at Annerose's large, bare breasts, doing her hardest to fight back a blush as the Steel Witch began put on her panties and bra.

"You should get some sleep as well, Mitico." Annerose said as she had finished in putting on her lingerie, now putting on her night gown. "We'll all need to be ready for tomorrow."

"As you wish, Lady Annerose." Mitico said with a bow before leaving the room, shutting off the lights as Annerose crawled into bed.

Closing the door behind her, Mitico proceeded looked over at the sleeping Rikuro, noticing that the tv was still on.

With a scowl and an annoyed look, Mitico went over to shut off the tv. "Why Annerose ever chose you as a servant, I will never know. Stupid human."

Mitico then went over to a nearby chair and sat down, reclining it back so as to sleep better. Once done, the demonic maid started to close her eyes, falling into slumber.

Within the cockpit of the plane, Shaun was piloting the aerial vehicle with David sitting comfortably in the co-pilot's seat.

Shaun, as he piloted the plan, was currently listening in on a call from Henry Emily as David drank from a thermos of coffee.

"Do your best to make sure Annerose and her company get to the estate by tomorrow. I don't want any delays." Henry spoke to Shaun through the plane's communication systems.

"Relax, boss. We'll get your detectives over there right on time." Shaun assured Henry before looking towards his co-pilot. "Ain't that right David?"

David took a sip from his thermos, swallowing before he replied. "Mhmm."

"They're in good hands, boss." Shaun said to Henry.

"Very well. I'll leave you to it." Henry said as he hung up.

"Dude could of at least said good night to us." David said to Shaun.

"Speaking of good nights..." Shaun started with a yawn. "I need some sleep, and you had your nap today. How 'bout you take the wheel?"

"Fine. That's why I got the coffee." David said as he put his thermos down, and placed his hands on the controls.

"Yeah, just make sure ya don't let the plane teeter and tilt like last time." Shaun reminded David as he leaned back in his seat.

"I won't." David said with a groan. "I told you, I was jet-lagged."

"You fly planes for a living. Don't give me that excuse." Shaun said as he wasn't buying what David was selling.

"I have experience in flying planes, not riding passenger on them." David fired back at Shaun.

"Whatever." Shaun said as he started to close his eyes. "Just don't fuck anything up, okay?"

"Fuck you." David said to Shaun in an annoyed tone as he flew the plane.

Rikuro had awoken with a small yawn, blinking a bit before rubbing his eyes as slowly arose from his position on the couch. He stretched his arms with a small groan before he opened his eyes fully.

It was morning, from what Rikuro saw.

"I wonder how long I've been asleep?" Rikuro thought to himself as he looked around the room of the plan before spotting Mitico, sound asleep upon a reclined chair.

"When she isn't trying to kick my ass or cut me into pieces, Mitico actually looks kind of cute." Rikuro thought to himself as he looked at Mitico's sleeping face.

Just then, a the sound of a door opening caught Rikuro's attention as he turned to see Evan walking out of his room.

Evan looked over at Mitico for a second before looking over at Rikuro, seeing that he was awake.

"Oh hey, you're that dude that works for Annerose. Rikuro, or something." Evan said to the young undead man.

"Uh, yeah. Yeah, that's my name." Rikuro said with a nod. "You're Mr. Fong, right?"

"Just call me Evan." Evan said as he went over to take a seat in a chair. "Looks like yesterday you really took advantage of the tv."

"Yeah, you don't get much tv or movies in Amidahara. The place may look like a bit of a functioning city from the outside, but being abandoned by the government doesn't leave much room for technology to flourish." Rikuro said to Evan. "Ever since I've been with Annerose, I've hardly ever left Amidahara. Hell, I hardly ever get to socialize with anyone outside Annerose and Mitico, and with them it's nothing but orders or berating. It's been a long time since I've seen the outside world, let alone stuff like tv."

Evan nodded with a hum at he relaxed in his chair. "Man, if I had to go through with what you lived like in Amidahara, I'd have probably blown up a lot of shit just so I wasn't bored half the time."

Rikuro furrowed his eyes a bit in confusion at Evan's claim as he responded to him. "I wouldn't go so far as to blowing stuff up at random, but... to each his own, I guess."

"Got that right." Evan said with a nod before he looked to the sleeping form of Mitico. "Looks like she's still sleeping, even with all this talking going on."

"Eh. Mitico doesn't usually sleep very often, something about always wanting to be prepared if Annerose needs her. She's probably just catching up on all the sleep she's been missing." Rikuro said as Evan continued to look at the demonic maid.

"You don't say?" Evan asked as he glanced at Rikuro before looking back a Mitico, a mischievous flash in his eyes. "Would be a real shame if someone was to just wake her up all of a sudden. Rudely. Abruptly."

"Well, obviously..." Rikuro trailed off as he heard the tone in Evan's voice, watching the man get up from his chair and slowly walk over to Mitico. "What the Hell do you think you're doing?"

"Sometimes, a man's gotta do, what a man's gotta do." Evan said as he pulled out a DJ air horn from his pocket, shaking it up a bit.

Rikuro widened his eyes as sweat ran down his head.

"Are you crazy?!" Rikuro whisper-yelled at Evan. "You do that, and she's gonna kill you! Then she's probably gonna try and kill me just because I'm in the room!"

"Don't worry about a ting." Evan said in an accented voice before losing the accent, getting closer and closer to Mitico as he slowly put the air horn next to her ear. "Just let the magic unfold."

Rikuro was sweating profusely at this point as he constantly glanced between the sleeping form of Mitico and the air horn.

However, just when Evan was about to press down on the air horn's button, the Goetic demon froze in place at the sound of a door opening behind him. Said door being opened by Annerose as she walked out of her room, clothed in her usual attire.

"What are you doing?" Annerose asked Evan with narrowed eyes and a raised brow.

"Nothing! Nothing. Not a thing." Evan quickly said as he turned around to face her with the best smile he could put on at the moment. "What are you doing?"

Annerose merely crossed her arms as she held her raised brow look towards the Goetia. "I saw the air horn. I suggest you should let Mitico sleep before you stir up trouble on this plane."

"Naaah. Hah! Air horn? What air horn. I don't know what you're talking about." Evan dismissed Annerose as he made the air horn disappear from behind his back.

Rikuro saw this and blinked his eyes a few times before rubbing them as to make sure he wasn't seeing things.

Annerose merely rolled her eyes at Evan before walking past him as she made her past him.

"Good morning Rikuro." Annerose said in a neutral tone with as she passed by her male servant.

"Uh, go-good morning, Lady Annerose." Rikuro said with a nod as he got out of his stupor.

Annerose made her way towards the cockpit as Evan went over to sit beside Rikuro.

"Whew. That was close." Evan said with a sigh while wiping a bit of sweat from his head.

"Hey, how'd you make the air horn disappear?" Rikuro asked Evan.

"The fuck are you talking about?" Evan raised his brow at Rikuro before pulling the air horn out of his pocket. "It's right here."

Rikuro blinked with widened eyes upon seeing vanished air horn coming out of Evan's pocket, his confusion skyrocketing.

Meanwhile, Annerose had opened the door to the cockpit to see David and Shaun, the latter being awake, piloting the plane.

"How much longer until we arrive?" Annerose asked Shaun.

"About two more hours. Once we drop you off at the airport, Mr. Emily will have one of his employees pick you up." Shaun answered her. "So just hang back, take a load off, and enjoy the view."

Annerose walked away from the cockpit, closing the door behind her as she went back to the lounge area of the plane.

David looked to Shaun as he spoke. "Why do you think Mr. Emliy hired a detective?"

"I don't know. The guys doesn't pay us enough for me to care." Shaun replied with a shrug.

David went back to looking through the windshield of the plane as he muttered something out. "I want to know, though..."

—————————————————————
VVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVV
/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\   —————————————————————

Two hours later, the plane arrived at its designated airport. Evan was on his phone, Rikuro was watching tv once more, and Annerose was drinking from a cup of tea when the plane landed. The jolt of the wheels landing against the pavement of the runway slowly stirred Mitico out of her sleep, the demon maid waking up with a yawn while stretching her arms out.

The entrance door to the plane was open, Shaun standing to the side of the steps as the Annerose and her company, along with Evan, exited the plane.

Annerose was the first to exit the plane with her suitcase in hand, Evan being the second while Rikuro was right behind him, carrying some other baggage that consisted of clothes for himself and Annerose. Before Rikuro could put his foot on the first step, Mitico shoulder shoved bast him, pushing him back a bit.

"Hmph. Stupid human." Mitico said to Rikuro with a smirk as she walked down the steps.

Rikuro groaned while giving Mitico a scowl before he started his descent down the steps.

"Hope you enjoyed your flight." Shaun said to the group as he walked back up the steps of the plane.

Annerose looked around the runway as she spoke to Evan. "So where this person that Mr. Emily sent to pick us up?"

"I don't know. She should be here soon." Evan said as he looked around as well. "From what the dude told me, she's new. But she had enough of a decent skill set for Henry to hire her as his personal assistant."

Just then, a shiny purple transit van could be spotted driving along the runway and straight towards the direction of the group. The van started to slow down as it got closer before it turned a bit and came to a stop.

"Ah, there she is." Evan pointed to the van.

Walking out from the driver's seat of the van was a tall woman with dark skin, yellow eyes, bluish-gray hair that flowed down to her back, and purple lipstick upon her lips. She wore black blouse with disconnected white sleeves with white frills in the middle the blouse, a mauve cravat neck tie buttoned onto her shirt's collar. She wore a short maroon pencil skirt with fishnet leggings that attached to garter belt under her skirt, all the while wearing black high heels.

(A/N: You can find a full image of her attire by going to her images on the Code Geass wiki.

Also, could someone link me to the episode this image is from? I've seen a few images of it, but in them she's holding a gun. Haven't seen the episode, nor the show, but if you could link to any episode where she where's this attire, I would be much obliged.)

The dark skinned woman walked up to the group. The moment she made her way over, she spoke to them.

"Mr. Fong." The woman said with a nod before looking towards Annerose. "And you must be Ms. Vajra. My name is Villetta Acteaon. Apologies that I wasn't here earlier. I ran into a bit of traffic."

"Eh, it's not like we were waiting for an hour." Evan said with a shrug. "We just got here, so I'd say you're right on time."

"Oh, well that's good." Villetta said with a warm smile. "If you all will follow me to the car."

Villetta had started to walk back to the van with Evan following her. As they did so, Rikuro couldn't help but stare at Villetta as she walked to the vehicle, the image of her beautiful face and smile still present within his mind, as well as when he got a quick glance of the woman's bust.

Seeing this, Mitico huffed at Rikuro before slapping him in the back of the head. "Filthy human. Must you ogle every woman you see?"

Rikuro rubbed the back of his head as he looked at Mitico with an annoyed look before the two servants made their way over to the van as well.

Annerose was not far behind Mitico and Rikuro, however she was currently deep in thought as she looked at Villetta.

"Villetta Acteaon... where have I heard that name before?" Annerose asked within her own mind.

After everyone had put their luggage in the back of the van, and everyone had gotten strapped in, Villetta drove the car out from the airport as she started her drive to Emily's estate.

The drive itself was around forty minutes at most, with the addition of minor traffic. Rikuro in particular was enjoying the ride the most. While most would just pass this by as nothing less than a car ride, Rikuro took as a way for him to simply look out the window of his side of the vehicle and breath in a calm sigh as he took the grass, roads, and forestry they had passed along the way. The zombie servant having never seen forests like these ever since Annerose had taken him in as her second maid. 

Speaking of Annerose, she had taken a few glanced from time to time at Villetta, the Steel Witch having taken the shotgun seat so as keep better watch on the dark skinned woman. The nagging feeling of Annerose knowing Villetta's name from somewhere ever echoing in her mind.

Eventually the van drove down a more private path, a path that eventually led towards a mansion. The mansion itself wasn't as large as other mansions, and it wasn't anything entirely orange or fancy, but the feeling that came from the image of the mansion alone was enough to make it feel grandeur in a way.

"Here we are." Villetta said as she parked the car. "Mr. Emily's estate."

Everyone in the van had gotten out, with Rikuro and Mitico grabbing the bags.

Villetta walked up to the door of the mansion and pressed a button that was on a speaker by the main entrance.

"Mr. Emily." Villetta said through the speaker. "Ms. Vajra and Mr. Fong are here."

Villetta then let go of the button just as Evan and Annerose's company got to the door.

The sound of locks coming unhinged and moving back could be heard from the door before the sounds came to a stop. Villetta then proceeded to open the main doors, walking into the mansion as she stood to the side.

"Right this way, please." Villetta said to Annerose's group.

As Annerose and her company walked in, Villetta looked to Evan. "By the way, Mr. Fong, Mr. Emily wants you to go down to the restaurant to look at the people signing up for the manager position."

"You know you could just call me Evan." Evan said to Villetta.

"That wouldn't be proper of me. Besides, I we barely know each other. If I'm call you by your first name, I would at least need to spend some time with you." Villetta replied to Evan.

Evan merely shrugged as he walked back to the van, Villetta closing the doors to the mansion in the process.

Annerose and her group looked around the main hall of the mansion for a moment until they were drawn to a stairwell in the middle of room, from which they could here the sound of slow footsteps walking down them.

The person who was walking down the steps was an elderly man with white skin, white hair with a beard, and dark brown eyes covered by glasses. His attire was a brown jacket over an orange vest, which was over a beige, plaid button up shirt. His pants were a light brown with a brown belt, his shoes black. The old man walked down the steps with a brown cane in his hands, slowly making his way down the stairs.

The old man had soon gotten down the steps, meeting Annerose's eyes as he held out his hand to her. "Miss Annerose. I've heard quite a bit about your work. I hope what I've heard holds true. Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Henry Emily."

Annerose gave a small smile as she met to shake his hand in greeting. "I'm very certain in the following days that you'll find my work speaks true."

As Annerose spoke with Henry, Rikuro let his eyes wander until they landed upon a large box with dark and light purple strips going in a diagonal direction, a large red strip on each side of the box, painted on to mimic a wrapping ribbon.

His curiosity piqued, Rikuro walked over to the box, looking at it before he decided to try and touch it. Just before could though, Mitico tightly grasped his hand, a scowled look on her face as she shoved his hand away from the box.

"You shouldn't touch things that aren't yours." Mitico chastised Rikuro with a scowl.

"I was only looking at it!" Rikuro said back in protest.

The commotion had gained Henry and Annerose's attention. Annerose sighed at her servants' antics as she spoke to Henry.

"I must apologize for my servants. They don't get along well." She told him.

"It's quite alright." Henry said as he made his way towards the large box.

Henry looked to Rikuro as he spoke to him. "You want to see what's in the box?"

"Uh, kinda." Rikuro admitted while rubbing the back of his neck in embarrassment. "But if you don't want to show me, it's totally fine."

Henry gave a very small chuckle as he waved Rikuro off. "Don't worry. I don't mind."

Henry then pulled out a device from within his pockets while Rikuro and Mitico stood off to the side, the latter with her arms crossed while Annerose decided to walk on over, soon followed by Villetta. Henry pressed a button on the device, causing the box to let out a whirring sound as the lids of the box opened up.

Suddenly, a figure started to rise from within the box. From the looks of it, it was an animatronic, humanoid in shape with thin, spindly arms and fingers, and a round head. The animatronic was mainly black in color with white stripes on its torso and arms, accompanied by a singular white button below its neck. A whisp came out from behind the animatronic's head, similar to that of a a jester's hat coming to vent point with four white stripes upon it and gold bulb at the end of it. Upon its face was adorned a round white mask, split in the middle. Upon the mask were blue tear streaks with a lower red lip and red cheeks, accompanied by small yellow orbs for eyes.

"What the heck is that?" Rikuro asked as in he looked at the animatronic in bewilderment.

"The Security Puppet is it's name." Henry said as he looked upon the animatronic. "Otherwise known as the Marionette. It's one of the few animatronics from the original establishment that I was able to salvage back together."

Henry then soon grew a solemn and slightly shaken look. "This animatronic was always different from the rest. People always thought that it seemed to have a mind of its own. Consider it the delusions of an old man, but I've always looked upon the Puppet as a dear friend. It always did it's job right, even when there were those who tried to prevent it in doing so. It even did the one job I couldn't... being there for my daughter in the end."

As Henry continued in his words, his voice trembled slightly, shaken. His words carried a sadness of the memory of a life long gone. Annerose and Mitico gave Henry a sympathetic look while Rikuro was merely stunned into silence.

Henry let out a small sniffle before quietly clearing his throat. "It is in my daughter's memory, and the memory of the other children lost to the horrors of William Afton, that I do this."

Henry lowered his a head a bit before turning to face Annerose. "If you could follow me to my office, we have much to discuss."

"Of course." Annerose said with a calm nod. "Lead the way."

Henry then proceeded to walk back up the stairs, with Annerose and Mitico in tow.

Rikuro and Villetta were left looking at the Security Puppet for a few moments more before Rikuro went to follow Annerose and Mitico, leaving Villetta as the last person to look at the animatronic.

Soon enough, Villetta took her eyes off of the Puppet and moved towards the stairs, following the others to Henry's office.

The moment Villetta did so, the Security slowly turned its head towards the direction of the stairs, and for a moment, it's eyes turned from yellow to green, watching the group depart to Henry's office. The Puppet's eyes turned yellow once more before it crouched back down into its box, the lids closing up upon it.

End chapter

[There should be a GIF or video here. Update the app now to see it.]

(A/N: Here's the second chapter of this story. Finally, I know right?

I wanted to get this out by last week, believe me did and I tried, but I got entangled in some economics homework, so I had to get that done first and foremost.

After this, I'll be immediately getting to work on the new chapter of Radio Taimanin Alastor, after which I'll be working on the next chapter of RWBY watches alternate dimensions.

Now, a quick note I would like to make is that, yes, I made Vanoss into a Goetia who uses the name Evan in place of his real name, Rynx. Is it weird and slightly over the top? Maybe. Am I sticking with it? Yep.

So until then, I hope to see you all next time.)
