(No One's POV)
There were so many people at the casino, everyone was working, even Death. Since Death was the fastest at making drinks, he was bartender tonight while everyone else served the customers the drinks. Ever since night shift started, Gamer has been walking around, serving drinks... he has gotten better at it during the past month. He walked up to the bar with his empty try "These four go to booth nine, these five to booth eleven" Death said "Got it" Gamer picked up the tray and walked over to booth nine, where four women were happily talking "Excuse me, you were an angel, right?" one of the women asked "Y-yeah?" "What's it like up there?" she asked, curiosity in her eyes. "Pretty, but boring, like watching a snail move an inch, compared to my experience, Hell's actually more interesting in its own way" Gamer answered, placing the drinks on the table "I hope everything goes good for you then" one of her friends chipped in "Thanks- what are you ladies celebrating anyway?" "This week's the anniversary of the treaty between Heaven and Hell, all four of us are grateful for it". Gamer smiled a bit more until he heard something coming from another booth.
"Have no idea why those royal assholes made a treaty with Heaven" a devil slurred, Gamer couldn't help overhearing the stupid conversation this guy was having with his friends "I mean why go wasting time sucking up to some stupid feathery glowing innocents?"....yeah, this conversation was making Gamer's blood boil. Although he himself hates Heaven, it doesn't change the fact that he was an angel, it felt like this guy was also attacking him. "Without the treaty, the angels would kill us or continue to ignore us, but the real reason for the treaty was so an angel and demon could love and marry each other" Gamer signed, at least on of them as decently smart.... oh great, that was the table he had to give these drinks to. Gamer walked over to the table, giving the guys their drinks "Angels will always be pathetic little innocents" the guy told his friend and at the same time grabbed Gamer's ass, almost making him drop one of the drinks "You're a pretty little thing, aren't ya?" Gamer shot him a glare. "You know I'm a guy, right?" "Does it matter?" the guy grinned "Last time I checked, this was a casino" Gamer held back his anger "Well I'm a paying customer, and I'm pretty sure that a fallen angel wouldn't mind getting some extra tips" Gamer looked at him, disgusted "You're sick-" the guy grabbed Gamer's wrist "Well what about after your shift, we go back to mine-" "Is there a problem here?" Gamer signed in relief as Zakaria had gladly interrupted the man. Gamer yanked his wrist out of the guy's grasp "No problem here-" "Then let me remind you two of the rules here, no touching the staff and no harassing the staff or you'll be cut off and kicked out" Gamer held back a smile while Zakaria stood up for him "Sorry ma'am, I'll remember next time" the guy smirked, looking Gamer up and down one last time before going back to talking with his friends. "You're doing a good job, keep it up and don't be afraid to cut people off or kick them out" Zakaria whispered, giving Gamer a small smile.
The guy watched Gamer walk back over to the bar with Zakaria "Mate, whatever ya thinking about, don't, not worth it-" the guy shot his friend a glare "Why?" "That's Mr Death behind the bar" one of the other friends pointed out "There's rumors that the fallen belongs to him, meaning no one can touch it-" "Last time red-hair 'owned' something, he gave her a red ribbon to tell people to back off.... do you see the innocent wearing a red ribbon?". "No-" "Then guess it don't belong to red-hair" one of his friends signed "Just forget about the fallen- stop staring!" the guy looked at his mate "Ya can't yell at me for looking or liking what I see-" "What about the fact that you'll get us kicked out or someone angry-" "Let's just leave him here and go home". The guy's friends got up "Don't do something stupid" one of them warned the guy before walking off.
One hour later, Gamer had started walking around grabbing empty glasses, only stopping when someone talked to him or asked him a question, even being forced to hear a drunk demon vent about everything bad that has happened to them. Something caught Gamer's eye though.... a game chip.... Gamer carefully bent down and picked up the chip "Okay? Odd" he placed the chip on the tray of glasses he was carrying- there was another chip near the staircase. Gamer hesitantly walked over to it, it was too odd for a chip to be laying around, even with people gambling just a few metres away from it, every player makes sure they always have their chips, but- an arm wrapped around Gamer as a hand covered his mouth to muffle any yelling, he was dragged upstairs to the hotel part of the casino. Thrown into an empty room, falling to the ground, Gamer looked behind himself to see the guy from earlier. The guy locked the door and walked over to Gamer "P-please-" he grabbed Gamer by the collar of his shirt and pushed him onto the bed and tied his wrists to the metal frame of the bed with metal lace "Please, stop-" "So innocent~" the guy climbed onto the bed, as soon as he went to touch the fallen, Gamer kicked him in the jaw, causing the guy to nearly fall off the bed. Pissed off, the guy grabbed Gamer's legs and tired them to the end of the bed "That was a bad mistake" he growled as he moved closer to Gamer "Help! Someone help!" "Scream as loud as you want, they can't hear you~" the guy went to kiss Gamer, but ended up getting head butted. "You little shit" the guy then grinned as he started to unbutton his pants "No, no- please don't-" "Shouldn't have hit me then" the metal lace started to burn Gamer's wrists as he kept yelling out for help.
Neil came back to the bar to get more drinks for a table "Lot'a people here tonight" "Yeah, good business for the moment, June's only cut one guy off" Death smiled a bit, placing drinks on Neil's tray then looking around the casino... "Where's Gamer?" Death asked, seeing his friend nowhere in site "Don't know- I thought he was here with you". Death waved June over "Yeah-" "You've seen Gamer?" "Last seen him over there cleaning up glasses" Death thought for a second "June, keep serving drinks, Neil stay at the bar" the two nodded their heads as Death grabbed the gun from under the counter, walked out from behind the counter and started walking through the casino. A couple of minutes later, nothing. "Excuse me" Death turned around to see a girl with a hood on "There's broken glass over there, one of the waiters dropped it... blonde boy with blue eyes" "I'm sorry- do you know where he went?" Death asked "Not really, but a tall rough guy was with him by the stairs up to the rooms" "Thank you" Death rushed off as the girl smiled, purple and green eyes glowing under her hood "Interesting". Death made it to the stairs, seeing broken glass. Death immediately bolted up the stairs.
The guy had unbuttoned Gamer's vest and had started unbuttoning his shirt "Please stop, I don't want this-" the guy was laughing at him, at how scared he was "You're so adorable when you're terrified" the guy opened the shirt, seeing all the scars on Gamer's chest "Jez little innocent, what fight did you get in?~". Gamer cringed as the guy licked one of the scars on his chest. Disgusted, uncomfortable, scared and now small tears rolling down his face "Please find me, please find me.... Death...." Gamer mumbled, the guy looked at Gamer "Last time I checked, that's not my name-" a foul grin crawled onto the guy's face "The red-haired demon downstairs *laughs a bit* I've should've know you'd be calling for him instead of me". Gamer heard someone in the corridor outside, tears were still running down his face "DEATH!". Death heard him "Gamer?!" "HELP!" Death rushed over to the door and tried to open it. Locked. Still holding the gun, Death budged open the door, shooting at the guy, but missed. The guy jumped out the window and landed in the street, running off. Death rushed over to Gamer, taking the metal lace off his wrists and ankles, Gamer immediately hugged Death tightly, still crying and scared. Death hugged him back "Its okay, I'm here, alright, your okay"....
