Hi, it's Iz-Drops. So I was wondering if you heard the news of Abigail letting me write this story! We're working together! So pratically, I'm the one writting this one and Abigail's writing the mext one! I'm not quite sure what ideas I might pull in this chapter, but let's see where it leads me to! Enjoy!

You sighed shamefully as she bended on your knees, with Rose resting across your shoulder as usual. The Eves and Servamps stared at Rose and you in surprise, "you made.." Misono started.

"A contract.." Tetsu stared at you in confusion.

"..With Demise!?" Hyde freaked. "Are you kidding me!!? She's one of the worst Servamps in history!"

"Aren't you saying that a bit too nonchalantly, Brother Greed?" Rose furrowed her brows, gazing at Hyde with a murderous intent.

You, on the other hand, didn't know whether if you have to get use to this murderous aura or not. "It's Hyde!~" Hyde said, showing off his new hand-carved necklace. "Licht-chan/tan (I can never tell.) bought me this a few months ago, since after that Tsubaki incident!"

"Heh, you met Melancholy?" Rose asked. "It's a surprise you knew of him more than me,"

"Actually, we only found out there were eight vampires months ago," Mahiru said. "But since we met you yesterday, I guess they're nine. Now, how many are you are again? Still nine, right? No.. secret brother or sister or something?"

"No, not that I heard of."

Mahiru sulked in disappointment, "you.. actually don't know..?"

"What a pain,"

"Uh, why do you always say that?" You blurted out.

Kuro glanced his eyes at you, "huh?"

"So nine Servamps, huh?" Tetsu queried, "well, there are more rooms here. And then, I guess I'll lead them to where they'll be staying."

"SLEEPY ASH!" A loud voice bellowed.

They looked over to see the Gluttony Servamp. World End, the 9th Servamp. "Bring me some food! You didn't bring me food on last time's family meeting! You better have something for me to eat than ice this time!"

"You just shut up," Wrath said, entering with her Eve, Tsurugi, one of the C3 members and magicians. He had his strait-jacket on, but his arms were letten loose, "you annoy me like crap, you glutton."

Lily then was somewhere around the corner, hiding himself from Wrath. "Now, now, •••••" Tsurugi said, "aren't we here to discuss about something?"

"Yeah, it's about.. Demise." you gestured to your unholy Servamp, who looked at you. "I.. made a contract with her,"

"Really? Hey Silver Austere, give me some food!" World End gripped on your shoulder, grinning from ear to ear. "I'm sure you have loads!"

"Uhm, uhh.. I'm not Austere, she is!" You pointed to your Servamp, "I'm her Eve, (L/N) (Y/N). And I'm sure Rose-chan has loads of food!"

"Like hell I have, human food makes me sick." Rose blunted.

"Such rudeness," Wrath said as she bended on her knees, and then raked at you. "Anyways, do you have a Lead?"

"Lead? What's that?"

"A Lead is a weapon for Eves to fight in defense. You didn't know about that? As an Eve, you should." Tsurugi said, with his arms flailed out.

"Uhm, I'm kinda new to this sort of thing, so.. I haven't heard of anything from Rose yet," you said. "She hasn't been explaining things lately,"

"What? Are you lazy too?" Misono queried, referring to Rose.

"No, I just didn't knew she wanted one." Rose said, "she could've just asked. Now, close your eyes. Let go of your thoughts."

And listen.. to me.. a feminine low voice said.

"Eh?" After a blink, you found yourself in an abyss.

You saw a little girl in about 4 years old, bending on her knees as she touched the ground, emitting cracks. She turned to you, she looks just like Rose, but in a different way. "Oh, you must be (Y/N)-san,"

"Who are you?"

"I'm the inside of the one you call 'Rosette', I'm the one who emanates power." The girl answered.

"Yeah, but what's your name?"

"Name? I haven't been given one,"

"Oh, then I'll give you one!" You pondered, "uhm, Scythe?"

The girl glanced at the scythe that she carried from her back and then glanced back at you, "do you dub things by appearances?"

"Not actually though, I name things by appearances and personalities, 'cause it gives you your meaning." You interpreted, "that way, it's easier to know yourself and remember that name. It's..sorta familiar with nicknaming,"

Scythe blinked, "then why did you name Austere 'Rosette'?"

"Well, 'cause she looked beautiful.. like a rose," you replied. "Even though she wears that tattered cloak all the time, she still looks good-looking with it."

"Oh," Scythe sat up and swiveled around, "please follow me." She meandered forward as large amount of cracks produced after each step she makes.

You tried your best to not stomp on them or else you might fall, "watch your step. Avoid the cracks if you must, I'm quite destructive myself." Scythe said as she kneeled down to a pile of gifts. "Happy birthday, (Y/N)-san."

"Uhm, I'm just fifteen though."

"Doesn't matter. To select your Lead, you yourself must choose one of these gifts," Scythe explained, "choose wisely. Just choose the one that makes you you. After what Lead you might receive, it leads you to different routes, different challenges per se. Yet always ends up in the same way. This is a level of your power, a level of different routes. Just like a circuit in a machine, no?"

You stared at the pile of gifts, "what makes me me? B-But I choose random things,"

"The decision is yours to make. Choose your best," Scythe said, standing erect in a flashy posture.

"Uhm, uhh.." you scratched the back of your heard as you looked over into the pile of wrapped up presents, then something caught your eye. "I choose the random one," you choose the one that was the most unique of all.

A flash came as you were back in reality where everyone had their eyes laid on you, strings then came from above as they warped themselves up together, prompting a whip. You gasped as the whip's tips binded on your wrists and glown, a white flash came again as you had a somewhat tatoo print of a leopard's tail on your wrist.

You suspiciously stared at it, "what is this?"

"That's your Lead," Tsurugi replied. "You release and keep it in anytime you want! That whip was actually your weapon!"

"Release..?" You stared at it, "I don't..understand."

It has begun. (Y/N), Eve of Demise: Lvl. 1 Scythe's synthesized voice echoed through your head.

"To pull your Lead out, you must do practically think of the motive of why you want power." Hugh said, drinking tea. "Once you pull it out, you must learn how to make it go away. Or else you'll end up like Tetsu, he doesn't know how to put his Lead back on, so he usually carries it everywhere."

"Hey, quit bluntin'." Sendagaya said.

"Uhh, release and disappear. That's a hard thing," you said, scratching your cheek with the tips of your fingers. "I usually think about random stuff, I'm very indecisive, so it's hard to know what I really want."

"Don't worry, (Y/N)-san! I'm sure you can do it!" Mahiru smiled, but that smile turned upside down by Kuro.

"Huuuh? Says the guy who had trouble releasing his own Lead months ago."

"Shut up!"

You chuckled, "you guys are funny when you fight."

Kuro blushed a bit as he heard your laugh, which made his Servamp siblings curious about that. "Hey, you bastard-chan. When is your crappy brother comin'?" Hyde asked, "I've been waiting to pick up a fight with Jeje for hours."

Misono then huffed, "how should I know? I haven't seen him around lately." He folded his arms, looking away.

"What's his deal?" You whispered to Mahiru.

"Oh, uhh.. Misono's big brother, Mikuni-san and him have quite a history together," Mahiru retorted, sweating since Misono was honing at him. "I actually don't believe that Misono and Mikuni-san had talked things out yet."

"Shirota, shut your mouth." Misono furrowed his eyebrows, yet Lily just gently smiled at him.

"So, Mahiru-kun. Is it true that you saw Big Brother cry when you are were in his interior?" Hyde queried, slithering a devious smirk. "Well, almost that is."

"Don't you usually cry nowadays?" Sendagaya queried.

Lawless irkly furrowed his eyes, "no, I don't!"

"Licht-sama, spank him in the head please."

"With pleasure," Licht bonked Lawless' head on the wall.

"Owwie!!" Hyde cried out.

"Rotten Hedgehog, you never learn."

"So, so, sooo! Kuni-chan will be here any minute now!" Tsurugi grinned insanely as he turned his C3 paperwork into a set of origami papers. "He has never been late, has he?"

"Who cares?! I want something to eat!" World End said before raking his eyes at Tsurugi's paper planes, he scooped them up and began eating them. "Lunch!"

"Waah! •••••, do something about your brother!"

"I can't do anything, just let him do what he wants." Wrath shrugged, "it's his thing."

"Why are you so rigid?!" Tsurugi gripped on his hair in a childish way.

"Hellooo~ Mahiru-kuuuuunnn~ it's been quite long!" And Mikuni and Jeje has jut arrived. "I usually only sent Jeje to attend meetings, but it's not that bad if I join, right?"

He then spotted you and paused, "who's this?" Rose's eyes opened as she saw him and Jeje, she climbed down your shoulder and hid behind your back.

"Uhm, uhh--"

"This is (L/N) (Y/N). She got attack by one of Tsubaki's subclass and afterwards, she made a contract with the Servamp of Demise." Mahiru explained without a breath.

Mikuni blinked, "Servamp..of Demise..? Who's that?"

Jeje got off Mikuni and transformed into his usual and odd appearance as a Servamp, he snuck behind you and pointed his gun's muzzle on Rose, who perked her head up and saw Jeje.

"Doubt Doubt, you've got some problems with me or something?" Rose finally spoke up after all those minutes of staying quiet.

"I don't have problems with you.. I'm just theoretically in dismay that you have the actual confidence to show up.. right in of our Servamps siblings..." Jeje mumbled in a low voice as usual. "Silver Austere.."

And you blinked, why is he mumbling?

"Your voice is too quiet. I hate it." Rose snapped, before looking away and turning into her human form. She crouched her back behind yours as she pulled her legs onto her chest, looking down.

You bit your lip in confusion, you didn't knew what was happening and you didn't knew the problem of your Servamp.

"Oh, so she's the Servamp of Demise." Mikuni looked down at Rose then at you, he blinked. "Greetings, I'm Arisuin Mikuni! Misono's big brother!"

"Bastard, don't say my name so lightly!"

You blinked as you looked over to Misono and back at the young man, "b-b-b-brothers?! So different!"

A doll then came in front of your face, "please take care of me~ (Y/N)-san! Abel loves you!"

You stared at the doll in the strangest ways as you felt Mikuni gasped as his eyes widen, "pervert! Don't look at my dear little fair Abel with lewd eyes!!"

"Are you kidding me!? I'm a girl!" You ragged, with an irk mark on your head.

Mahiru cleared his throat, "as I was saying, (Y/N)-san here needs help in release her Lead."

"Huuh? No biggie!" Mikuni playfully said, letting his 'Abel' rest on his shoulder. "Just concentrate and think of what you wanted, get use to summoning it!" He adjusted his hat, "now, did I just came here to talk about something else?"

You then noticed that Kuro just left the room, you were curious. You stood up quietly and followed him to where he gone to, Mahiru didn't notice 'cause he was talking to Mikuni.

Following the Sloth Servamp led you to the one of the bathing pools, he meandered on the sides of the pool, going somewhere. You sneaked at him while you walk on the pool with your bare feet, you curiously watched him walk as you followed behind in a distance away.

But that's when you slipped and fell on the pool, your eyes widen as you tried swimming to the edge. Panting as you looked up to see Kuro, staring at you with his sloth-like eyes.

"Are you following me?" He queried.

You blushed in a flustered manner, "I-I.. uhh,"

Kuro sighed, "don't answer.. it'll just be a pain," he grab-ahold of your arms and picked you up, pulling you closer to him. Right now, he was wet because of your wet clothes.

"Uhm, uhh.. Kuro, your clothes will get wet! An-And you don't have to pick me up like that--"

"It can't be helped, I am already wet."

"Oh, sorry." Your eyes fell, you were just embarrassing yourself in front of him. But then something warm touched your head, your eyes looked up to see Kuro.

Looking directly at you as he placed his own palm on your drenched up hair, "you shouldn't apologize. It was an accident. You won't be able to face your feelings if you regret something,"

You blushed and smiled, "d-don't worry, i-it's alright. I feel better now, thanks to your words!"

Kuro lightly blushed as you then realized your palms were on his chest, you then scampered away from him in fright. Which actually didn't help and made you fall down the pool again.

"Aww, not again!" You whined.

Then you heard a chuckle, it was from Kuro. He was laughing, but then paused when you just realized that. He looked away as he kneeled down to you and threw you a bathrobe, "have you took a bath yet?"

You blushed and covered your face with the bathrobe he gave you, "n-no, actually. Although, I am now since I'm wet. You can leave now i-if you want." Why did I say 'if you want'?! Something inside of you literally screamed.

Stop freaking out, (y/n). It's not healthy, Scythe's voice said inside your head. Your face was all red as you've seen Kuro stare at you longer.

"So troublesome." Kuro sighed, "I'll take one once after you're done." He then left, making your chest feel lighter as you calmed down.

You groaned as you let your bathrobe rest on your face, "this is so damn embarrassing."

"Hey, you." A voice said, you looked behind the rock behind you to see Rose in her human form, sitting on the rock. "That was odd. Was there some kinda romance sensation here?"

You blushed as you moved away from Rose, "R-Rose-chan! Wh-What are you doing here?! You saw everything?!"

"Yup, everything. The whole thing," Rose replied as she looked up at the moon. "Big Brother Sloth usually ignores someone who stupidly fails something, per se someone like you who just stupidly slipped on the pool's edges twice."

"Hey!"

"However, I'd expected him to say 'what a pain' or something else and left you alone. But I was unaware that he might look at you and pick you up." Rose said, pulling her hood down to reveal her platinum blonde braided-hair with silver plaits. Her hair glown by the moonlight as you stared at her in amusement, she was beautiful. "I wonder what would happen if someone like you had feelings for someone like Sleepy Ash?"

Her red eyes laid at you, "is that true? You have feelings for him, don't you?"

You blushed and looked away, "it's not that.." you left the pool and decided to take your wet clothes off, but before you did that. Your Servamp stared at you, waiting for an explanation.

"I just..have this weird new feeling," you twiddled your fingers to one another as you remember the scene that happened yesterday.

"Then that's love," Rose said as your blush became a lot more worse. A sakura flower's petal landed on her palm as it then turned black and dissolved away, thus she sighed somberly. "Or maybe like. I can never tell."

"Rose-chan! Don't go saying that so nonchalantly! Kuro might still be here!"

"Nah, he's gone. I can no longer feel his presence."

You sighed in relief and turned to Rose, who you saw that her right eye was become black with a red pupil and her left one was blue by a blink. But it then disappeared once you said, "Rose, your.."

Rose closed her eyes shut and looked away, "it's just nothing. This is none of your concern. I'm leaving, call me if you want your clothes back."

She grabbed your drenched clothes and flew away, you sighed. "I wonder what's wrong with that eye? Is it because she's the Servamp of Demise? Or is it because she's incomplete?"

♡~(Skip time)~♡

"Kuro, have you seen (Y/N)-san?" Mahiru asked hid Servamp, who just lingered around the halls.

"Well, yeah. But she's bathing, you shouldn't disturb her 'cause it'll be a pain." Kuro said before walking pass his Eve.

You, who just finished wearing a bathrobe saw Mahiru running towards you. "Eh? Eh? W-Wait, Shirota--" before you could get the chance to warn him about the wet floor, he slipped.

"Uwwaah!"

"MAHIRU!!"

Rose, who sat on the roof of Sendagaya's Hot Spring Resort, looking up at the moon. "Ahh~ Auste-chan, you come up here too?"

She turned to see Hyde, "oh, hey there.. Brother Greed, I just come up here 'cuz I like the full moon. I like it when it's out." She said.

"Don't call me that. You can call me by Hyde, Lawless, Lawless-chan, Lawless The One And Only of Greed or... Lawly!"

"Yeah, how about I just call you Gaudy Glasses like what Sister Wrath's subclasses call you then?"

"No! Anything but that!"

"Chill, I'll just call you Lawless. How's that sound for you?"

"Lawless is fine!"

"So you usually come here often?"

"Yeah, I like seeings views 'cuz Ophelia and I used to go on the castle rooftops and do star-gazing."

"Huuh, Ophelia?" Rose blinked, "isn't that the princess you dated?"

"I didn't date her! W-We didn't had a relationship at all!" He blushed and swiveled around, making Rose face his back as she stared at him in a dull manner.

"Fool, indeed that is true. But it's obvious that you had feelings for her."

Lawless blinked twice, "how about you? Do you have a past love?"

"No, not at all." Rose's eyes fell, "every human who gets nears me just dies. Even if I did nothing, everything around me dies. I have no love or anything, I just hope my Eve survives." She glanced at Hyde once more, "hey, I heard you kill your Eves once you get bored of them. Is that true?"

Hyde clicked his throat as he rubbed his nape sheepishly, he sighed. "Well, yeah. But I used to 'till I met Lich-tan, he's..changed me a lot."

"Lawless, what do you usually with an Eve?"

"I dunno, random stuff. Make fun of them, toy with them--"

"Okay, that's enough. It sounds annoying," Rose then flied off, leaving Lawless who just shrugged and rested his hands on the back of his head.

This gave me the CHILLS! I hope you liked it. Not quite.. great with sensations such as this, I don't write stories. But I was happy that my dear friend, Abigail_Agreste agreed to let me write a chapter! Also, I'm a big fan of Servamp too! How about you??
