"We'll stop the broadcast." Ryo's co-announcer said.

"Don't." Ryo grabbed his hand.

"But--"

"Don't you get it? With the TV broadcast stopped, we're the only ones showing this footage. We'll get a lot of hits. This is my program. If omething happens, I'll take responsibility" Ryo's face turned sociopathic.

"Look at this." The announcer resumed his work. "It looks as if Koda has turned into some kind of beast."

"He actually transformed. Mr. Koda... is a demon." The grin grew larger on your brother's face and you decided it was time to seek shelter. But before you had even made it out of the stadium, trusty brother Ryo was next to you.

"I'm going to announce that demons are real. You better stay close to me and Akira. Things are going to get messy."

"Big brother, you look so happy."

"I am, Persephone. I am so very happy." He took you to watch him give his big announcement.

It was long and boring, but you were happy to see Ryo finally express some type of emotion. Even if it was sick, twisted pleasure from beginning yet another human extinction.

Later, as he held you closely, he decided to call Akira and see how the plan was progressing.

"Hey." Akira answered.

"Hey, Akira." Ryo put him on speaker phone.

"Hi, Aki!!! Miss you! Love you!" You smiled at the phone.

"Hey, babe. Miss you and love you too! I killed the demon."

"Good job. We'll be busy starting tomorrow. Get some rest." Ryo encouraged Akira.

Something didn't quite feel right however. But you let it go. You were going to let Akira do his part and you would do yours.

"Let's go home, baby sister. I've got  some recordings that I've got to make and I want to make sure you're safe." He held your hand tightly. "Maybe Amon will come over tonight."

"You know, I don't think you should call him Amon." You mentioned off-handedly as he guided you to the car. "Just like you shouldn't call me Persephone."

"And why not?" He glanced at you as he opened the door for you to sit down.

"Akira and I aren't the demons in us. We might be using their powers but like, my mind is still YN and his is still Akira. I don't know. I just don't like it." You scowled as he shut the door on you and sat himself in the seat in front of you. Jenny was already in the car.

"What good is a human name when the world is about to be taken over by demons?" Ryo remarked, making you huff.

"Jenny, can we put his memories back or what?" You asked grumpily. She held her face still as she shook her head no. "Ryo can we put them back yet or what? I'm tired of playing this game."

"No. I think I'm almost ready. That thought isn't so alarming anymore. But let us resist just a bit longer."

Stupid. This is going to be so annoying. You thought as you scowled to yourself.

The drive back was short and quiet. As everyone returned inside the apartment, each person went their own way. You were so fed up, so frustrated with the day's events that you called the only person you could.

"Hello?"

"Aki? Can you come over? I'd really like to hang out."

"I need a shower... Do you want me to take it before I come over?" He sounded tired.

"No... I want to take it with you. Just... hurry over." You hung up and decided to draw a bath. You needed this. You needed to break the tension and Akira was the best person for that.
