The soft breathing of a third party graces your ears as the veil of sleep is lifted. That groggy feeling still remaining, pounding at your head, your movements witless and doltish. The soft feeling of the silk blanket providing what little comfort you could gather at this ungodly hour. You attempted to swing your legs over the side of the bed, to little avail. Glancing down you saw the faint shimmer of violet scales, coiled around your lower body like a snake subduing it's prey. Looking to your left you're met with a prodigious sight. Apophis, who by the looks of it was in a deep sleep. Her purple skin contrasting nicely with the moonlight seeping in from the midnight sky, her mauve hair strewn across your chest, arms draped around you, similar to her tail. Brushing a few strands of hair from her face, the sudden contact seemingly waking her up, those golden orbs seemingly glowing in the dark.

(Y/N): "Uhm, hello there..."

The seductress placed her slimmed, magenta finger on your lips, hushing you.

Apophis: "Shhhh, go back to sleep, you need rest"

The soft, lulling sound of her serene voice coaxes you back into your dream like state, placing your head back against the pillow, sleep overtaking you once again.

Luci: "What the hell is this?!"

An all too familiar voice swipes you once again from your sleep. Glaring up you spot the hellhound, in her pyjamas which seemingly consisted of basketball shorts and one of your T-shirt's. The sudden noise stirs Apophis from her slumber too.

Apophis: "What is that obnoxious noise... we're trying to sleep..."

Luci: "Yeah, I can see that! You're in bed with (Y/N)!"

This seemed to alert the Demi-snake. Her eyes shooting open with an almost animalistic swiftness. A smug smile graces her lips as she nestles deeper into your chest, her eyes not leaving the hound.

Apophis: "We were sleeping quite nicely too, until you barged in"

(Y/N): "Hold on... What are you doing in here...? You don't wake up till like 12..."

Luci: "I... uhhh... gotta go pee!"

And with that, the hound bolts out of the room.

"I swear she was blushing" Was all you could think in that exact moment, before the movements to your left distract you once again. Apophis.

(Y/N): "She has a point, what were you doing in my room...?"

Apophis: "Sleeping, with you. Not that hard of a concept to grasp (Y/N)~"

Locking eyes with her you noticed an unidentifiable glare in her eyes, one you couldn't quite place. Shrugging it off though you stand up, revealing your toned and well built body to the snake-woman, a small grin and blush creeping onto her face.

Apophis: "Oh my~"

(Y/N): "Please don't mention this to the other girls? It's one thing letting you sleep in my bed but them knowing I'm fine with it? That's a whole other ball game..."

Apophis: "Wait... you're fine with it?!"

(Y/N): "Well yeah, you did suffer something traumatic. It's understandable that you'd want company"

Apophis: "Right... that...yeah, definitely why I did it"

You couldn't help but pick up on the quiver in her voice... as if she was lying. Throwing on your running clothes you bend down to tie your shoelaces.

(Y/N): "And do me a favour... put some clothes on."

Apophis: "Why, don't like what you see?~"

(Y/N): "Yeah, good one. Its not that I'm just not used to being sexually assaulted whilst I sleep, also if the others catch scent of this they'd call for your head."

And with that, you left.

Upon opening the front door you're met with that all too familiar sound of arguing.

Kat: "You snake bitch! Thinking you can just come in here and take out (Y/N) from us!"

Luci: "For once I agree with pussy over here. Who do you think you are?! You...you home invader!"

Monic: "Girls, how about you calm down? If (Y/N) gets back and you're fighting he's not going to be very happy..."

Apophis: "I think you're just angry that he likes me better than you~"

Okay, you'd heard enough.

(Y/N): "Hey girls, I'm back"

Rounding the corner all the girls immediately drop their angered expressions and replace them with fake smiles.

(Y/N): "Oookkayyy then. I'll be in the basement looking for something if you need me"

Monic: "Need any help master?"

(Y/N): "Yeah, please. I'd appreciate it a lot Monic"

Descending into the basement wasn't something you did often. The long eerie steps, constant howling of wind and just overall atmosphere wasn't something to behold. You weren't scared by any means, but Monic was, in fact she was literally shaking.

(Y/N): "Here, it's fine"

You grasped her hand in yours, and immediately she tightened it.

Monic: "T-thanks..."

(Y/N): "So, you're scared of the dark?"

Monic: "Heh, no. Basements in fact. Ugh, bad memories..."

(Y/N): "Well, don't worry... I'm here for you."

Monic appreciated the gesture, in fact her mind was in overdrive. Here was her master and future lover, holding her hand and guiding her into god knows where. She was pretty sure she'd fantasised about this at one point.

The basement was just that, a basement. Well, in terms of basement-y stuff it was a castle, but that due to the million dollar mansion built above it.

(Y/N): "Okay, I just need to find my cassette player. It should be here somewhere"

During your mission you neglected to realise the Monic had disappeared, and a fairly loud whooshing sound was emanating from the back corner.

Monic: "Uhhh, (Y/N), you might wanna come and see this..."

Walking to where Monic's voice was coming from you saw a glyph on the floor, giving off a crimson glow which ominously lit the basement up in a red hue.

Then...

The glyph started to increase in brightness before you and Monic were knocked backwards by the sheer force of the wind. Upon regaining your bearings, you noted the new presence of a woman.

Scathach: "Hey! I'm not late am I?"
