“You’re a clever one, Natalie. I’ll give you that. You couldn't just trust me! No! it'd cost you too much. It would mean you'd have to believe me, it would mean the life you know has always been a lie. It would mean bringing you out of your comfort zone and that isn't what you'd want is it? It would be too much for you to handle that's why making me to be the devil was so so much easier than accepting the truth. You play the innocent, the victim, all while sharpening your knives in the dark. “I am a victim!” she cried, her voice rising, desperation lacing her tone. “You bought me!

she cried as his lifeless body plummeted to the floor. Pebbles ran to the only place she could think of, the closet that rested on the second floor of the devil's mansion, but when she got there, another devil was awaiting her. “Did you miss me, Pretty Pebbles?” Harrison grabbed her and shoved her inside. “How I've missed you." He unbuckled his belt and unzipped his pants. Pebbles tried to scream, but her mouth was sewn shut. She thought to punch him, but her hands and feet were bound. Terror seeped from her pores when she lowered her head and realized she was naked and positioned for the devil to enter her.

He walked through the narrow streets; his eyes saw what kind of place this was, and since it was nice, he somehow felt a little relieved that he was in a place like this. Amethyst is helping an elderly woman with her groceries, and Dylan thinks that Amethyst never changes at all. Amethyst still helps the elders whenever they need help. Seeing Amethyst like this, he felt guilty. She was smiling; her expression was serene and content. It seems that he has no intention of returning to his old life. Who really intends to go back to the life they had? They were always filled with blood and illegalities. They always have to look out for their own lives.
