Chapter Text
It was a typical day at Ronaldo’s apartment. Ronaldo was wearing his red vampire hunter uniform while he was sitting down at the chair at his desk.
“Whatcha’ doing, Ronaldo?” Draluc asked, as he was sitting down on the couch in the living room. He turned his head to look towards him.
“Oh, just filing some papers. I got it from some clients.” Ronaldo was stacking a pile of papers. “We have gotten a few new requests to hunt down some vampires.”
“That’s good.”
“Why would that be good?” Ronaldo shouted. “Are you saying that it’s bad!?”
“No, no.” Draluc said. “It just means that we’re still in business.”
“We’re? You mean–me!” Ronaldo put his hand on his chest to gesture to himself. “Like hell! This is my agency! You quack!” Ronaldo got up from his seat and used his hand to perform a ninja karate chop on Draluc. “You didn’t even want to work here with me, when we first met anyway! You lazy lump of sand!”
“Sand!” Draluc got sliced into a mountain of sand.
“Nuu! Nuu!” John ran to Draluc’s mountain of sand, as he was worried about Draluc.
“You’re getting on my nerves.” Ronaldo sighed and walked back to his desk in his office. “I have to get this work done. About these requests.”
“It’s okay. I’m alright, John.” Draluc emerged from the sand and petted John’s head to assure him. “Get used to it. I’m not going anywhere. You know that. As you’re my familiar for eternity.”
“Nuu! Nuu!” John chirped happily back at Draluc.
Draluc walked next to Ronaldo at his desk. “Is there anything that you want any help with? I’m pretty good when it comes to organizing.”
Ronaldo looked through some papers randomly. “Sure! Can you sort the requests from old to new ones? By the dates?” He pointed to an empty corner of his desk. “And make two separate piles of them. When you’re done, put them here.”
“Okay. Got it.” Draluc said, he was about to turn around to sort through a long stack of papers in the corner of the room. But stopped.
“Huh? What's wrong, Draluc?” Ronaldo saw him flinch. “Why the face?”
“Oh, it’s just. I sense some sort of vampiric presence around us–”
“What! I wonder who that could be–”
A female hand knocked on the door of Ronaldo’s apartment and said out loud, “Hello? Is anybody there?”
“It’s open! You can come in!” Ronaldo shouted at a distance for the customer to hear him.
The door opened by itself, and it was a female with pink hair. “Hi, is this Ronaldo’s agency? Right?”
“Yes. It is.” Draluc said.
“Good. I just wanted to be sure. That I’m at the right place.” She walked towards the front of Ronaldo’s office desk. She giggled wholeheartedly as her lips showed a visible vampire fang sticking out above her mouth.
Ronaldo and Draluc both stared directly at the female client in confusion. Her pink hair was in a bun. Black bat-like wings were sprouted against her back. She had a short black devil-like tail with a pink heart adorned at the tip of it. Her tail dangled under her short skirt. Black devil horns were in her fiery bangs of hair.
A sleeveless heart shaped top was covering her breasts. Her feet were wearing dress flats.
“Will you excuse us for just a short moment?” Ronaldo asked her. “I just need to have a quick chat with my work colleague here. In private.”
“Sure. I don’t mind waiting.”
“In the meanwhile, go play with John.” Ronaldo pointed to the armadillo. “He’s that armadillo.”
“Nuu! Nuu!” John’s eyes sparkled in admiration as he saw the lovely female. “Hello. It’s nice to meet you.” She crouched over to him on the floor and shook his small paw like a handshake. She petted him like a cat. “Aww! You’re so cute!”
Ronaldo gestured over to Draluc to approach closer to him at his desk. “Hey! Draluc! Psst! Come here!” He whispered to him.
“What is it, Ronaldo!?” Draluc asked with a whisper. “And why are we whispering? Is something wrong?”
They both started whispering to each other while the female client was occupied with John’s cuteness and couldn’t hear what they were saying about her.
“Are you sure that you felt some sort of vampire presence around here?”
“Yes. I am. I’m never wrong with my senses.”
“But I mean. I can’t believe it–”
“Why? It’s just a girl? Do you have a problem with that?”
“No, I don’t. It’s just that..” Ronaldo blushed. “When I look into her eyes, I can’t help but feel all warm and bubbly inside. You don’t feel that way when you make eye contact with her? Do you?--”
Ronaldo grabbed Draluc’s arms as he was freaking out in his head. “Please tell me I’m not the only one that’s feeling this way! I mean– look at poor John!” He pointed at him. “He looks smitten with her! With those googly eyes of his!”
Draluc looked at John from a distance and put his hand on his chin in question. “He does. But he acts like that with anybody. He’s pretty friendly for an animal.”
“Oh my god! Do you think she put some sort of love spell on me!” Ronaldo shouted. He nervously gulped and started sweating. “What if that girl is actually a succubus!? And once she has me, she kills me with those fangs of hers!” He imagined the girl murdering him with a vampire bite while he was lying in bed shirtless in a room.
Ronaldo got distracted from his fantasy and accidentally screamed aloud, alarming the client. “AHHHH!!!! HELP ME!!!”
“Is everything okay over there!?” The girl stopped petting John. Her ear perked up at Ronaldo’s screams. She turned her head behind herself to stare at him from afar with Draluc. She fluttered her pink eyelashes at Ronaldo as her purple eyes took a pause to look at him. “Are you guys almost done talking?”
