Well neither of them really liked each other. As long as this girl was going to go away was enough for her. Ignoring vague words that suggested the girl wanted her soul. But that would be dealt later. Hopefully she would just leave in a moment, then they could figure out what to do about Shinigami. Should she call Alexandrine? No Alexandrine probably did not have enough experience yet, with that Emi girl yet, to be of any help there. But, then she saw it coming. Another figure. Not recognizable as a friend she knew. But maybe a local Magical Girl…wherever they were. Or was it an enemy? She stepped back to Mitsuko and Shinigami as it got close, watched her land. Jumi looked over her with a sigh. About ready to curse her luck. “Please tell me that is not Lenneth…”. She unfortunately was not looking for the answer from Mitsuko and Nall.

“Sorry I’m not nice to someone who only wants to eat my soul. I’m not exactly sure what you expected, or what would have been proof to you. Whatever you are.” Jumi did not have the mood to be nice without reason. She was not stupid enough to attack, but why should she treat the creature any better…especially since she somehow accidentally succeeded. She watched as Shinigami was freed, but kept her eyes on the other girl. She was just going to leave like that? If so, they accomplished half their goal. Though the question of how to handle Shinigami became a much more complicated one. Not one she intended to shrug off though. She had a lot of responsibility for this.

That was the question of course. How to prove it to someone like this? Who seemed to have an absolutely foreign thought process on this sort of thing. “Does her surrendering her power, giving me a portion of it mean nothing to you? I suppose it doesn’t, since you are still asking for proof.” She hesitated for a moment. “I could offer something that everyone here, except probably you, would take as a proof. You would probably just assume I wanted to have some fun, offering to take her place over there. Though maybe her reactions would convince you neither of us think it is as fun as you think.” She was mostly just ranting now, trying to think of something that could prove it to whatever this girl was. Though she technically made an offer.

There were rules? Jumi was still very reluctant about trusting anything this girl said, and said rules probably went out the window if she or Mitsuko attacked but maybe they were not in quite as much danger as she feared. Could they use force to try to free Shinigami though? Break the tentacles? That was probably risky, assuming they could even do that, it probably would not last long. The girl still did say just 'not yet' about her after all. But it was unclear exactly what this girl wanted. Her soul? Or something else? Apparently there were other souls as well. Was that the source of the whispering? The undead? Were they actually a threat to her after all? "Enjoys it?" Jumi replied, a hint of bitterness. No, this was all too familiar. Shinigami might have been feeling pleasure in the moment. In the moment, some part of her might actually want it. But Jumi had a very good idea of how she would feel when it was over. "You wouldn't get it. But I understand what she is feeling now." This girl probably genuinely would not get it. She seemed to think more like what she expected demons to think like. But then, after Mitsuko's final cry, they were asked to prove it. A few very dangerous, potentially very stupid options came to mind. Repeat what Mitsuko did with Shinigami back in the hall? Very likely to backfire, this girl was unlikely to see things Shinigami did. "Well, you can't have my soul as a snack. But I'm willing to do a lot to prove it." The trick was, what would convince a girl like this?

“Mitsuko, Nall. Meet dream girl.” Jumi went into a defensive stance as she appeared. “…Still as hard to understand as ever, most of the time.” She had still had a difficult time picking out much of what was said. Her face tensed as Shinigami was enchained. Did they have power to fight her? Shinigami never clarified exactly who this girl was. What she was. ”Awww, and here I thought you wanted me.” She said sarcastically to the girl. Then the tentacles. An interesting punishment. But if they were not careful, she and Mitsuko might be on the receiving end of them. “She’s no Zorn, not comparable to many other demons I’ve fought. We would already be dead if she was.” She stepped forward. This was maybe even more dangerous than the convention. No harmless bystanders. But did they have a chance of winning in battle. “…You on the other hand…shouldn’t treat your daughter like that.” She doubted this girl literally gave birth to Shinigami, but might have been able to be called a mother of sorts, if she did in fact create her. “So, what’s your game here? You don’t feel like the sort to wake me out of that dream out of kindness.”

That wording again. Being part of her and now being gone. Jumi was not sure whether or not to be concerned by that. Hopefully it did not have any negative impact on Shinigami, but she watched as it disappeared. Never completely discovered the true meaning of the things she saw in her dream. Screams though? What was that? The tentacle monster? Or was there something else there? She did watch it cause at least some discomfort for Shinigami too, but hopefully not for long. Resisting the shockwave, she dug in as best she could, but was grateful for Shinigami’s help. She then observed her surroundings. Why this place? Where were they? Nothing in immediate view. Were they at least close to home? She took a moment to relax, before hearing Mitsuko point out the lack of clothes. Jumi might have preferred to let her body dry off a little first, before putting hers back on. But something about Shinigami’s last words made her put hers on and step behind. Were they alone?

Not as bad as Jumi was concerned, but she did wonder exactly where they were. Were they even actually in their own world or not? Shinigami had said some strange things about the house, which she still did not really understand. Probably would not learn at this point. Though Shinigami mentioned something about a sight to see, she was curious what that was about. But maybe that was after they left? She watched Shinigami open the portal. A new, seemingly random place. Just out in the wild? “Oh nothing. We just apparently have a crazy stalker we have to deal with. Nothing a Magical Girl can’t handle.” She was partially being confident for Nall, but she suspected together, they could all handle it. She took the lead, going through the portal.

“Not like I knew it was going to happen until I did it.” Jumi shrugged it off with some humor. It was true too, at first at least. Ignoring she had drank every drop she could out of both breasts. So, that actually did have an impact. Would anything else happen if she kept doing it? If Mitsuko did it, especially after dealing with whoever that girl was? But this just made her decision more certain, even if she had only temporarily been connected to Shinigami like that. “There were other things that might surprise you, but hearing about that should probably wait.” She just watched the rest, a fairly nice scene, until they were done and she got out and began to dry. “As long as the outside is not as unpleasant as it was in the dream.” Well, it sounded like they would have to leave that way after drying and finding Nall. Though she also picked up the two apples, after drying. They could not carry too much, probably did not need to. But at least a little food might not hurt to carry.

She absorbed part of Shinigami? Well, that was a surprise, even if it did explain things. But which exactly was the cause? Was this about the temporary mark, the power she was given with the chains? The milk? Something else? Did this go further than she had realized? “We did a lot of things, things some of which I never expected…do I still have any left inside me, or did I sleep it off?” If she still had some aspect of Shinigami inside her, that just made it more important to stick together. She would likely continue to be a target. Maybe she would tell Mitsuko details later, that would probably surprise her a lot. But it was probably better to focus on preparing to leave. ”Enjoy the suspense. I’m sure you will find it quite surprising.” She said with a smile about being mysterious. Yes, it was something she never expected to offer. But she made her decision, but it had to wait until this was over.

Well, what to do here? Was it really that simple? Would the girl really leave them alone, whether or not Shinigami was the real target? Also it was just a little late for Shinigami to try to push her away now. After all that had happened. “I would kind of be a failure as a Magical Girl if I abandoned you at this point. Besides, I always intended to give you a new deal anyways.” Well almost always. She briefly wanted to abandon Shinigami there, but that was no longer the case. Was there something more? “I think I had that dream for a reason, and not just because of whoever that was.” She felt she had learned something bigger than she realized. She did not know if Shinigami was somehow involved, whether she realized it or not. “There was something I intended to offer you as part of the new deal. I still do, but it will have to wait until this is over. You are stuck with both of us.” She was not just doing this out of duty or obligation as a Magical Girl. No, she wanted to do this.

She wanted to be a good woman? The way Canata meant it? Or the sort of girl she had been? “I think you have potential. Once you let go of the way you have always thought. There is a freedom. A purpose. Maybe you will see things in a new light. Zorn is a demon. He has done much you probably would hate. Up until now he fought for his master. Well, your sister killed his master. Now he is master. You might find there is more to him than you think.” He was not one to kill or hurt just for the fun of it. Well, not in most cases, he was one that his fun with Magical Girls. Certainly not willingly on their part. For most part though, everything he did had a purpose. Emiri’s pain would too. ”He will help me, teach you to let go. Indulge things you may have been in denial about. To use your power to its full potential. To see our world for what it is, maybe even embrace it. If you give yourself to him completely he will treat you well. But of course it isn’t that simple.” Of course Emiri would fight, not so easily betray everything she had been. The question of pain. That was a sensitive one. “Hmm well, it partially depends on how long and hard you resist. Whips, blades, heat, his power. Any number of things. Not for fun though, to open your mind, be willing to consider him. It should not be surprising he will have sex with you too, how soon, I can only guess.” It might be brutal. It might take some time. But when she gave in, she would understand, learn, she might even thank him for not holding back.

We have the Knights as the male equivalent. You can see a few examples in the profiles and they have been involved in the story, to a lesser degree. Older ones are possible, but they are more likely to be mentors than actively fighting by the time they are middle aged. We do have a number of villains, there is room for more. But would have to figure out who they are the enemy of. Futas are possible, but not for humans. People can have as many characters as they want.

Was it really a dream at all? Her soul drawn out in her sleep or something? Something was very strange here. The girl certainly seemed to want her, but if Shinigami knew her as well as it seemed, she would have to trust her judgement. Was Shinigami the real target here? But then why leave her alone? Unless it was a bit of a dream after all, and that was not really her. "I don't suppose we can lock her up with the tentacle monster..." No, that would probably be too easy, was not a serious suggestion. There was more too the house? That room was really here? Was she meant to see it? But if she was, by who? She was not sure if she should ask, either the meaning of the word, or what the other creature on the wall was. "And where exactly do you intend to take us next?" Jumi was still not even sure where 'here' was. Whether they had actually switched worlds or not. And that wasteland in the 'dream'? If even Shinigami was troubled by this girl, where did she intend to go?

Shinigami knew who she was. Or at least had a good idea. Jumi was sure of that now. “For a while her voice was hard to understand. I did not understand everything she said. Mostly seemed to be about eating the apple to wake up…but in the beginning, if I heard it right, ‘you’re mine…or you will soon be…’. then trying to get me to eat the apple to wake up. Something I tried to avoid as long as I could, did not trust her. She had grabbed me at first, trying to get me to take the bite, but let go after I did not. After that, things were hard to understand for a while. Then encouraging me to eat the other apple, that you could not save me, while I tried to wake you up.” ”The house itself kept telling to get out it seemed. There was a whisper most of the time. But the only rooms I could enter was the room we were sleeping in, and a strange one. Had your symbol on the floor, on the wall, an etching of a fox like creature, something else I did not recognize and a single word I could not read.” Did that room mean anything to Shinigami?

“You know a girl? Looks human, but not, short white hair, skull earrings, lightly dressed, carries a scythe? Lives in a place similar to this, but mostly sealed doors and surrounded by wasteland? I either had a very strange dream and/or some random strange girl I’ve seen before wants me for reasons I can only guess.” Jumi wished she could explain the strange girl better, but hopefully that was enough, if Shinigami did actually know who she was. “Well maybe she did not live there. I don’t how much of it really was a dream, but felt too off. Oh, the house became full of undead too. You were sleeping there too, but couldn’t wake you up. Not fond of the fact, that girl gave me the only apparent way to wake up, eating the dream version of one of these apples Mitsuko brought us.”

Jumi happily just let Mitsuko wash her, feeling happy she seemed to be moving more comfortably. She did probably need this anyways, helped her relax to the extent she could. Returning the hug and kiss, leaning back and relaxing as Mitsuko moved over to Shinigami. Who finally woke up. She silently watched them for a moment, seeing Shinigami’s look, not quite sure what it meant, but taking it as a good sign. “Hope you slept better than I did. Have to ask you some things after you have a moment to completely wake up.”

“Demons can certainly sneak into our dreams. It is usually only succubi or incubi though. The girl did not seem like one of them though. There was nothing sexual in how she acted.” It was probably good to make that clear. Mitsuko was technically in danger of a demon getting into her dreams. All humans were, though it was thankfully pretty rare. Mitsuko should be aware of the possibility, but was unlikely to experience it. Jumi smiled a little at Mitsuko’s embarrassment. “You’re my girlfriend, don’t be worried about something like that. Just give me a proper washing.” Mitsuko did not have to go out the way to please her, but Jumi wanted to help her get over any shyness that seemed unnecessary at this point. Shinigami had quite satisfied her, but there was no harm getting a little bonus from Mitsuko, though the first touch did not really get much reaction.

It did feel nice. Jumi was not going to encourage Mitsuko to do it one way or another. She did not need anymore action at the moment, but she would not have stopped Mitsuko from being more playful. It helped her relax, thankfully without making her more tired. She moved whenever necessary, to help Mitsuko reach places. “Don’t worry though. I’m better than before. I just want to make sure if it was just a dream or not. Whether I somehow got my own ‘Lenneth’ after me.” She was not sure where the girl came from though. Seemed unconnected to anything she had fought before. Probably not anything looking for revenge. But that made it more strange. It seemed completely random, unless the girl had some connection to Shinigami.

Jumi had been feeling better before the dream. The problem was she was not sure how much of a dream it really was. The water did help her relax some though, as did Mitsuko’s presence. She smiled a little at the wording of that comment, but did not say anything. She just let Mitsuko wash her. She did need it, after that night. It felt a little nice. “Just shake me or something, if it looks like I’m going to fall asleep.” It was probably safe, she was not tired either, but she would prefer to be awake at least until Shinigami could give her any answers she had.

It did help that Jumi probably had a meal that Mitsuko was unaware of. Though just how healthy/filling the milk was for Jumi was uncertain. She just got into the bath, sighed deeply, tried to relax without falling asleep. Though she was probably awake enough to not be in danger of that. She was shaken a little, but not panicking or anything like that. “…Just one thing after another for me today…’. She dryly observed, looking up at the ceiling. It being so soon after her issues with Shinigami earlier probably did not help.

Jumi was cautious about the other girl. Would likely remain so, at least until Shinigami was awake and she could ask her. Ask her about that version of the house too. It was just so strange, like it was almost connected to Shinigami and maybe not completely a dream, but a real place of some sort. Why the rush to ‘escape’ otherwise? Claims she should not have been there? She picked up the second apple as Mitsuko grabbed Shinigami. Could maybe give one to her after she woke up. For now though she just followed Mitsuko. “I’ll feel better about it after figuring out if she has any idea what that was all about…whenever that is. She was exhausted when I went to sleep.”

“She was still asleep when I left at least.” Jumi answered. Maybe a bath was for the best. She looked at the apple. This one was from Mitsuko after all, not…whoever that was. She was a little concerned about that girl. But as long as Mitsuko and Shinigami were here, it was probably all right. She took Mitsuko’s hand, slowly followed her up. They would decide what to do about Shinigami, whether to wake her up, if she was not already, when they got there. ”Thank you for the apple, but I think I will wait a little. It was weirdly connected to that dream and girl.” She did not intend to refuse it, but she wanted to wait a little before eating it again. Even if that one was probably safe. “…A bath is probably good for all of us.” More for her and Shinigami, but Mitsuko would certainly be welcome. It was probably the best way to relax.

Jumi hugged Mitsuko back. "Looks like you had the right idea, leaving us to work it out...it was...quite the experience. We seem to be on good terms now." She wondered how much to say about what the two of them did, it might be amusing to see Mitusko's reactions at least to the breast milk and the chains. For now though she held off on that. "I think we should be good for the rest of the time here...though" Her face grew a little troubled. "Sorry, I had a strange dream just now. Stuck in a strange version of this place, but with most doors sealed, and only one strange open room, the outside a wasteland...a girl too, one I have never seen before. Claimed I would be hers, soon...I am not completely sure if she was part of the dream or not." Mitsuko deserved to know. It might sour an otherwise happy moment, but it was good to tell her immediately.

Was it just a dream after all? Perhaps, in a sense. But it felt like more. Demons were certainly capable of entering dreams. She believed there might be a real danger now. That girl did not feel like a figment of her imagination. She took the threat, at least she considered it a threat, quite real. Someone wanted her, for some reason. She was relieved to see Mitsuko, walking closer, but giving her space to train. She supposed she would find out what Mitsuko thought about what happed with Shinigami soon. It was probably worth letting them all know about the dream, including Shinigami. Shinigami just might even know who that girl was.

It was a strange experience. Disoriented by the unavoidable sleep. Then back to the beginning. The only difference she noticed was the whispering seemed to be gone. Was she back in the ‘real’ house or not though? Could she find Mitsuko and Nall this time. Or was that strange girl playing a game with her. She would find out soon. She imitated her first steps, carefully getting out of the bed, grabbing one of the apples. And made her way out, listening for the whispers, looking for the sealed doors, or whether it was back to the normal house.
