For what reason Mammon brought Raiin to an arena full of sweaty, we may never know, kidding, of course, you may know since I am so nice, I will let you know, Mammon brought her there because, drum roll please, he needed money, that's it.
Raiin to Mammon, at the moment, was a wallet, a bank account he could use to earn money, betting on which fighter would win, which would allow him to pay off his debts and not get harassed every day, by the people that he owns money to.
Everything was going according to the plan, they were headed to the counter, where they could bet, Mammon had a huge smile on his face as he was dragging Raiin behind him, but it all came to a halt, when Raiin stopped him, when they were two steps away from the counter, and told him she can't stay here any longer.
"Why? It's fun here." Mammon said with a cheerful tone and tried to convince her to stay, but nothing he said could do anything to make her stay.
As he was giving her reasons to say, she shook her head while looking down, not wanting to see anything that was happening around her, but even though he line of vision consisted of only the floor, she could hear the shouting, the screams of anger, agony, and panic, that reminded her of that head, the year her mother died.
That year, their house was never empty, it was always filled with relatives that came to express their sadness some they angry, and some were angrier than others, but they were all angry at her, for killing her mother -the woman who was loved by everyone and anyone- or that's what she thought, she thought everyone was angry at her, because of her, so every argument, noise or fighting that happened was about her, she caused it; everyone was as suffering because of her.
Every time she would hear a cry, a scream, or even a hint of a fight, she would run to her room, curl up in a ball and cry until she fell asleep; that was how she spent that year, miserable with puffy eyes all the time.
That had a big impact on her, if you couldn't tell, it changed her more than her mother's death, the way she handled arguments and fights changed, in the past, if someone in the family was arguing with someone, she would try to stop them with puppy eyes and a pout, but now, if the argument was small, like the ones she had with Miko, she could handle, if the fight was revolved around her or because of her, she could handle but other than that, she would start remembering that year and struggle to stay conscious, which was happening right now.
Mammon couldn't understand what happened li she was fine a minute ago, what triggered this reaction? If he could ding that out, making her stay would be easy.
And on that note, he started asking her questions, to try and get her to speak, which didn't help at all, they only overwhelmed her and made her more wanting to leave more.
She didn't care how much she liked Mammon and wanted him to be hers to play with, this wasn't a case where that could be a reason to stay, it was more of a reason to leave.
But in the state she was in, she couldn't show him how angry or serious she was, the only thing she could do was look up at him, with teary eyes and a red nose, and say in the softest tone ever: "Please."
Mammon was shocked by her reaction, he wasn't expecting her to be this affected, but with that, he knew, they had to get out, so he made the hard decision to give up on making money and pulled Raiin away from there, and decided to take her somewhere else to cheer her up, somewhere fun and exciting, but where?
While the author and her dead friend Riri think about that answer, let's rewind back to a few hours ago, when Dolores was taking Katsuki to the vet.
She frantically ran through the hallways of the school, to the nurse's office -the only close by place that had a medical professional- she busted through the door, her tears streaming down her face, her eyes teary and red, her nose runny and hands shaking.
"My pet…my chicken….his leg, it's burnt." Dolores said, breading heavily and struggling to keep her composure, but when she saw someone in the room other than the nurse, she composed herself and wiped her tears.
With a deep breath, she walked to the nurse, who immediately took Katsuki in her hands, to examine him. Dolores was staring at her, checking his leg, not noticing the man behind her, looking at her with a glint in his eyes.
"It's pretty bad, I think I am going to have to take him to a hospital." The nurse said as she handed Katsuki back to the nurse. The worried nurse quickly wore her coat and checked her purse, to make sure everything was there, and then she got a big cardboard box and told Dolores to put Katsuki in it.
Dolores was hesitant to do it, because usually, Katsuki doesn't like being in tight places, but surprisingly, after she put him down, he just rested and did nothing, which got her even more worried, because he was never like this, he never got this sick and depressed.
Seeing him like that made Dolores emotional but she choked up her tears and asked with much difficulty if she could go with the nurse to the hospital.
"I am sorry, I can't, I am going to a hospital in the human world." The only reason she was taking the pet chicken to the human world was that they treated animals better than they did here, in here animals are food and rarely anyone saw them as beings to love.
Those words broke Dolores and her tears were threatening to fall, with the unknown black hair patient watching her closely.
