No More Holding Back...
Mammon: *RAGE* MADDI! PICK UP THE FUCKING PHONE!!!! YOU STUPID BITCH! WHERE THE FUCK IS MY DAUGHTER?!!!!!!!!
Everyone:...
Mammon almost broke his D.D.D out of fury and glared at everyone present in the room.
Mammon: I'm not in the FUCKING mood to play games anymore! My daughter is in peril!
Diavolo: Yes. We understand that perfectly, Mammon. We will assure you Kanon will be back with us safe and sound.
Mammon:....Can I really trust you for that?
Barbatos: Mammon. Do not underestimate Lord Diavolo. His word is law.
Mammon: I don't care if it's law or not! I want to know if you all are capable enough to help me get my daughter back!
Barbatos:....
Mammon: This is seriously a search and rescue mission! Every minute wasted is another minute those damn Witches are doing horrible things to my daughter! I don't even want to imagine what Maddi is doing!
Lucifer: Brother...we will find Kanon. Do not worry.
Mammon: Lucifer...I am already worried!!!
Diavolo: Mammon. Please calm down.
Mammon: *ANGRY* I AM CALM.
Asmo: Mammon! Please! I know you're upset about Kanon but try to keep a low head! Okay...so what if you do find Kanon? What if you scare her if you act this way?
Mammon:....
Satan puts an hand on his shoulder...
Satan: Mammon...We'll find her... Don't worry...If you lose your head like this, you're just giving Maddi what she wants...I know you don't want to hear this from someone like me...but we're all upset...we're all angry for what happened to Kanon. We care about her just as you do... Everything will be okay...Kanon will be alright...I don't think Maddi will necessarily hurt her unless she is provoked to.
Mammon:.....
While it is surprising, that Satan of all people, is comforting him. But it did bring some reassurance. But the swelling anxiety that Maddi still has Kanon didn't make it any better.
They had no idea what that witch is capable of...
Maddi is called the Great Witch for a reason...
Mammon: Fine....
He then looked at Diavolo and Barbatos.
Mammon: Okay...So you may not know where she is...but do you have any leads?
Diavolo: Yes...We do. Thanks to the info that the Lil Ds' have scouted from around Devildom. You may find this impossible to believe. But...
Lucifer finished his sentence for him...
Lucifer: We believe a demon is working for Maddi.
Mammon's eyes went wide...W-What? No! That can't be possible. No sane demon would want to work for that bitch!
Mammon: That can't be true...
Barbatos: We also though that...But anything is possible, Mammon. We likely believed this unknown demon is being manipulated by the witches...
Mammon: Were the Lil Ds' able to find proof to that?
Diavolo: Yes...according to Lil D. #2, they saw a person covered in a cloak have stolen a certain valuable book from my father's archives not too long ago...
The second eldest raised an eyebrow.
Mammon:......You're not saying I did it, did you?
Barbatos: Mammon...We're not jumping to accusations. You're not the Avatar Of Greed at the moment. So of course it isn't you. Because if it was the case, we would've been knew it was you if it was one of your ridiculous schemes to make some grimm.
Mammon felt sheepish. Guilty as charged. But luckily this time it wasn't him, so they can't hold him accountable.
Levi: What certain book did those witches take?
Belphie: Why a book anyway? That's boring...
Satan: *Angry* Did you just say books are boring?
Lucifer: Satan. Stand Down. Let Lord Diavolo finish.
Diavolo: As I was saying...This book is very valuable. Because it holds enough power to contain a demon and forge pacts between them. With or without the demon's consent...
Lucifer:.......A grimoire.
This raised alarm bells for all the demon brothers. Oh...That's not good.
Mammon: Shit....Of fucking course, it had to be a grimoire...and they're forcing another greed demon to take it...in order to subdued demons to their control...
Beel: Because...if you're not there with them...
Satan: Then they would've used another scapegoat to commit the crime...of course it was a demon. A demon being controlled, who covered their tracks well, because none of Lucifer's tracking spells worked.
Belphie: *Sighs* Those witches...
Levi: Honestly. Why can't they just leave people alone?
Asmo: And because the witches are so infuriated with Mammon...
Lucifer:....That's why they kidnapped Kanon. To lower Mammon's defenses and try to bring him back under their power....
Mammon:....
He has to put a stop to this. Because if he doesn't...Kanon would die. He refuses to let her die. He won't let her end up like Lilith!
Mammon: Barbatos...
Barbatos: Yes...?
Mammon: Please...I know this is a lot of ask but...please help me use your powers to find Kanon!
Everyone:.....
Barbatos: Mammon...
Mammon: Aren't you supposed to be a time demon. Surely you can go in the past and save Kanon, right?! RIGHT?!
Barbatos:....
Mammon: I'M BEGGING YOU!!! PLEASE!!! GO INTO THE PAST AND BRING HER HERE!
Barbatos: Mammon....You know I can't do that.
Mammon: BULL-SHIT!
Barbatos: ....Mammon. I understand your worries for Miss Kanon. But in all honesty, most of my powers are meant to serve Lord Diavolo and are meant to work in regards to his wishes. I hardly use them on others individually.
An excuse...?
Did he....just give him a FUCKING excuse?!!
Is he for real? He thought he could trust him!
Mammon: But you did it with MC once!!! What makes Kanon any different from them?!!
Barbatos:....That's because the situation WAS different, Mammon.
Diavolo: We still need time before we can make the right move...
Mammon:....And how long will that be?
Barbatos: Maybe a few days if time is on our side-!
Mammon: BUT THEN THAT WILL BE TOO LATE!!!!
He started growing frustrated! Why...Why can't someone just help him find his daughter! Why can't they do that one thing for him?!!
No one ever wants do things for Mammon...
They rather do things for either Diavolo, Lucifer, fuck...Even Solomon and he's an asshole...
But when it comes to Mammon.
They make excuses!
Mammon: Why...?
Everyone:......
Mammon: Why won't you help?... My daughter is in danger and you're more worried about what Diavolo thinks??? I get it...you're his manservant and all but....still....
Barbatos:...
Mammon's power started sweeping out from him as he begin to grew angerier & impatient by the minute. He might lose control of himself...
This is what Lucifer had feared...that the more his brother lost control, the further from sanity he would be. This is one of the reasons why he's strict with Mammon. He needed to act with a firm hand to avoid this fate. He needed to protect Mammon from himself, no matter what it cost...
Lucifer: Mammon...
Mammon: No! Don't touch me, Lucifer! You lost that privilege years ago! I don't care about starting a war with the witches! I'm thinking about my daughter! Because it's clear to me now that I'm the only one in this room that truly cares about her!
Asmo: Mammon! No! That isn't true!
Mammon: Then tell me what is true?!...Why can't you all just do this one thing for me?!! Kanon's life is grave danger! She could be hurt or worse! Are you just going to turn a blind eye and do nothing...like you all always did before when it came to me being casted aside due my sin!!!
Brothers:....
Diavolo:...
Barbatos:....
Satan: Mammon...
Mammon: No...No...This isn't about me anymore...it NEVER was...this is about my daughter...
Everyone:.....
Lucifer: Mammon. We do care for Kanon. We truly do. Just give us a few days and-?!
Mammon: I don't believe that...because everything that comes out of your mouth is a LIE! WE DON'T HAVE A FEW DAYS! Kanon's life is in the line! I know what Maddi will do! If she don't get what she is wants! She'll kill her!
Brothers:....
He can't help but feel betrayed once again by their silence..
Honestly, how many times...is everyone going to continue treating him like a fool?
Mammon: *Dry Chuckle*.... You all make me sick. Are you all really that scared of Maddi? All because she has a grimoire?! Aren't we're supposed to be the Demon Lords that shaped Devildom the way it is now. She's a threat. I understand that yes but you're scared of losing reputation because of her?! Y'all have no idea what kinda fucked up things I heard that bitch says about us. She was planning to use all of us for her own benefit. Now she has my daughter and you expect me to pretend none of that mattered and that you guys could handle it alone?!!!! Don't Mess With Me You HYPOCRITES!!!
Mammon started walking away.
Levi: W-Wait! Where are you going?
Mammon: Where else? I'm finding the location and getting my daughter back! With or without your help and Diavolo's permission!
Lucifer: Mammon! Wait!
Mammon: SHUT THE FUCK UP!!!!
He vanished right after that...
Fuck them. Fuck all of them. What happened to all that talk about being a family again? Was it all a lie to lower Mammon's defenses?!!
Fuck it all. He'll find Kanon himself. With or without anyone's help.
*Later*
It was nighttime and Mammon was now searching every witch coven he knows. But sadly every cult he visited all around the human realm to the demon realm...
Most of them were seemingly abandoned or they were small cults just trying to summon a demon for trivial reasons.
Mammon: Shit...Where are they? They have to be somewhere...
???: Yo! Boss!
Mammon looked to see Karasu and the other crows flying towards him.
Mammon: Karasu. Did you find Kanon's whereabouts?
Karasu: Yes! The witches have her trapped at the Ancient Cult...on the outskirts in the woods of Devildom.
Mammon: The Ancient Cult...
Thousands of years ago. The Ancient Cult. It was once known as a paradise for witches...They were commitments that created relationships with sanctions. There ceremonies and rituals associated with covenants in the ancient world were very different and far more gruesome...
But one day, tragedy took place as a ritual gone wrong at that cult and all of the witches have scattered.
The place has been abandoned for thousands of years...until now.
Mammon gave a few crows a little pats here and there. Before he giving them some shiny coins & trinkets.
Mammon: (So if Kanon is there...then it's obvious Maddi is too...) Thanks Karasu. I'll promised your reward.
Karasu: Thanks Boss! While you're at. Make sure you finally get a mate...heh. Like that would ever happen for your lonely butt~!
Mammon: RAAAAAGH! SHADDUP!
The crow made a mocking laughter before he flew away with the others.
Mammon: What A Dick...
At least he finally knows where Kanon is at...
Mammon: (Hang on sweetie, Daddy's coming!!!)
-Later-
Mammon finally made it to the Ancient Cult. It was a large cult, surrounded by the dark forests. Large cabin homes which consisted of at least 100 or so members of witches.
Typically witch cults also exploit their members. Mostly financially. Within the group, they'll exploit members financially, psychologically, emotionally and, all too often, sexually....
Mammon scowled to himself of the fact he left Kanon with these people and now...that he was free from debt...they have the nerve to want him back to exploit him more for their own benefit.
He knows he can't just go in there and demand his daughter back.
Mammon maybe strong but one false move can spell both doom for him and Kanon.
Mammon: (I'm here, Little Treasure. Just a little while longer...)
Suddenly, he heard a small notification on his D.D.D.
Mammon: *Frustrated* (MOTHERFUCKER!)
He swore to himself and saw it was Lucifer texting him a message.
"Mammon...Please Respond."
Mammon:....
-Ding-
"Mammon...Please... I know you're angry. But talk to us."
Talk to them? Ha! What a laugh! He needs to laugh at this!
Then Lucifer started calling him which made him more angry. Since there was no witches around. He decided to take the call.
Mammon: *Annoyed* What?!
Lucifer:....Mammon.
Mammon: No! Lucifer! I don't care if I embarrassed you in front of Diavolo. If I don't care if I ruined your reputation or his reputation! I DON'T FUCKING CARE ANYMORE! All I care about right now...is my daughter! Who seems to be my only family at this moment!
Lucifer:.....
Mammon: None of this would've happen if you all would just LISTEN to me!!!
Lucifer:.....
Mammon: *Sad* If you actually cared about her...you guys would be here...
Mammon hunged up on him and turned his head...only to look surprised to see all of his brothers in their demon forms a few meters away with sad expressions on their faces staring at him.
Mammon: ?!!
How long have they been there? How long have they been following him?
Lucifer: Mammon...
Mammon: *HISS*
The brothers backed away a bit as he hissed at them, not trusting them at all.
Mammon: DON'T TRY AND STOP ME!
He got in defense mode. White claws armed and ready to strike them down. His walls were built up again. He's not going to let them hurt him again.
He's not...
Belphie: We're not trying to stop you, idiot!
Mammon:....What? Like I'll believe that!
Asmo: No! Mammon! Please! We're here to help you!
Mammon looked shocked as he stared at each one of his brothers to which some of them nodded to prove that they were on his side.
Mammon:....Diavolo put you all up to this, didn't he?
Lucifer: No...
Satan: We made the choice to be here....because this is a family matter.
Beel: After you left, we made a choice and decided to go after you. To help you and stay by your side to save our niece...as a family.
Mammon:....
Levi: I know...we made lots of mistakes that can't make you forgive us...
Mammon clicked his tongue. What took ya so long, genius? Hint: Sarcasm...
Beel: But Kanon is family. First and foremost. We won't abandoned her.
Satan: Family stays together til the end. That's something you taught me once, Mammy.
Mammon:....
Lucifer walked up to him and gently took his chin as their foreheads hit one another. Blue eyes meet crimson, a moment of quiet til both pairs of eyes came into a mutual understanding.
Lucifer: You've done a good job as a father. I'm proud of you, Mammon. Now...let us help you...consider this as an attempt to let us fix our mistakes....
Mammon: Luci...
Lucifer: Like Beelzebub had said, Kanon is family. So are you. I will not lose anyone in our family. Never again. Maddi had made an unforgivable move and now...
His dark aura appeared but no one was scared this time...because they felt the same way....
Lucifer: We're getting our dear Kanon back. No strings attached.
Mammon:...*Smiles* Thanks Guys...
Levi: Hey! Don't thank us just yet!
Beel: You can do that once this is all over...
Satan: We're ready when you are, Mammon.
Asmo: Let's crash this party~!
Belphie: *Yawns* Let's just get this over with...
Mammon: Yeah...
Lucifer: Mammon...Just this once...I'm allowing you to lead our brothers...to lead all of us.
Mammon:...
No more holding back...
He nodded at the eldest with a determined look on his face...he and the others turned to the Ancient Cult with darkened enraged faces craving for bloodlust. Those witches made a huge mistake...
After this, this could even go down in history.
With that, the seven brothers of sin had two goals in mind.
Save Kanon & Destory The Witches....Once And For All.
It's Going To Be A Bloody Massacre....
Let The Slaughter Begin!
