Chapter Text
MC was sick. I mean really sick...
You know when you wake up one day feeling perfectly normal, but over the next few hours, you feel like shit? THAT sick.
MC clutched her head as a piercing headache shot through her skull. She was currently in her final class of the day, Potions, with Satan, Mammon, and Belphie; trying her best to hide her obvious discomfort.
The teacher explained something about whatever potion they had to practice today, as MC tried her best to drown out any form of sound/light that was assaulting her brain. She kept her head on the desk, as Satan wrote notes diligently next to her. MC was getting worse as the clock ticked on. Satan glanced over at MC’s form as the teacher began to let the students prepare to make the potion themselves. Today, it happened to be a simple sleep potion, something Satan has prepared before. Satan carefully roused MC from her stupor as her head shot up to glance at the clock. She flinched as her eyes quickly shut from the lights hitting her eyes. “Are you alright?” Satan asks as MC painfully smiles, “Yep, never better.” She lied.
MC began to help Satan collect various ingredients to prepare the potion, but she left most of the mixing and stuff to him. MC felt woozy as Satan quickly prepared the potion, before once again glancing back over at her, watching as she stared into nothingness. “MC?” He asks again, taking in her pale face, “Are you sure you’re alright? I can take you to the nurse's office if you want?” MC can only nod, as she felt herself get progressively worse. There was no way she could hide it anymore. Nausea in her stomach plus the pounding in her skull only added to her discomfort. She felt like she was dying. Satan, taken aback by MC’s willingness, immediately looks for the teacher to let him know of MC’s condition. MC felt her skull was about to explode as her senses became painfully heightened. “Oi! MC, you alright?” Mammon and Belphie came over to her as she felt herself sway, black spots dancing in front of her vision. “I’ll be okay. Just a little t...tired…” The last thing she saw as she felt herself fall and her consciousness waver was Mammon quickly running towards her. “MC!?”
Lucifer and Diavolo sat in the student council room per usual preparing for the meeting that would be held after the final class of the day. Lucifer was preparing handouts for the meeting while Diavolo was enjoying some tea prepared by Barbatos. However just as the final bell of the day was about to ring, “Lucifer!” Belphie burst through the doors of the Student council room with Satan right on his tail. Lucifer looks up surprised, as his youngest brother attempted to catch his breath, “It’s MC!” Lucifer only glanced at Diavolo, before Diavolo gave a nod, did Lucifer run off with his brothers to go check on MC.
Mammon was already in the office with MC when Lucifer and his other 2 brothers arrived. The current nurse at RAD was more of a formality since demons don’t really get sick/injured, thanks to their fast healing. The nurse was not experienced when it came to human illnesses and left the room to let the brothers attend to the human exchange student, so Satan sent a text to Solomon to have him come over and examine MC. MC looked ghastly pale and sweat was clinging to her forehead as she rested in the bed. Lucifer dismissed his brothers and promised to update them on the human’s condition but Mammon was reluctant to leave. Lucifer let him stay until Solomon arrived, and they both sat at MC’s bedside.
MC groans as she tosses and turns restlessly in her sleep. Mammon reached out to grab her hand in hopes of calming her down, but as soon as he touched her skin he pulled back alarmed, “She’s burning up!” Lucifer looked questioningly at Mammon as he pulled off one of his gloves to feel her forehead. “Hmm, that is quite a high fever…” Lucifer states, trying his best to hide his obvious concern. “IS MY HUMAN DYING!?” Mammon quickly jumps up and begins pacing around the room. Lucifer could only groan before walking over to a cabinet and grabbing a washcloth. He soaked the washcloth in a water bowl that was at MC’s bedside and gently placed it on her forehead.
Soon enough the sorcerer appeared and walked briskly over to MC’s bedside. “Alright, so what happened?” Solomon asks. Mammon fills him in on what happened to Potions class. Solomon asks both of the demons to leave to let Solomon examine them, Mammon refuses to leave, but Lucifer dragged him out of the room with him.
Lucifer and Mammon wait out in the hallway to hear news from Solomon. Mammon tells the rest of the brothers about MC’s predicament, and Lucifer informs Lord Diavolo. As the final bell rings, soon everyone appears rushing down the hallway to be close to MC. Lord Diavolo arrives with Barbatos and the brothers arrive one by one. “Why are you all here? Please we still have a student council meeting to attend,” Lucifer asks, staring at not only his brothers but Lord Diavolo as well. “How could I possibly host a meeting while one of my exchange students is ill?” Diavolo states while looking bewildered at Lucifer.” Before Lucifer could refute, Satan asks, “How is she doing?” Mammon immediately answers, “She’s dying! I swear she’s going to–” Lucifer smacks him over the head, “Idiot, she’s not dying. Don’t go spouting such nonsense.”
“Oh no~ I knew she didn’t look too well today!” Asmo says, “Her skin looked so pale at lunch, but I thought it was because she wasn’t hydrated” Levi can only agree, never bothering to look up from his D.D.D, “It says online that it’s flu season for humans right now?” Satan peers over Levi’s shoulder to look at the article on his phone, “Hmm, don’t they usually have a vaccine for that?” Barbatos chimes in, “My Lord, we never did check the vaccine records of the exchange students before they came.” Lord Diavolo ponders, “It seems that we didn’t, but we don’t know yet if it’s the flu.”
Just then Solomon reemerged from the room, taking in the audience of demons concerned for their human. “Oi! Spit it out! Is she dying?” Mammon asks first, before receiving multiple facepalms from his brothers. Solomon only smiles, “It’s just a virus, most likely the flu,” he says nonchalantly. Levi laughs at Mammon, “Told you!” Solomon steps to the side to discuss treatment with Lucifer and Lord Diavolo, while the other brothers head in to see MC.
