as he looked at them. Jasmina turned around to the sins, eyebrows raised as she waved at him.

"Come on," she said, voice too soft for Isaac to catch it," erase his memory or something with your weird magic."

"Actually," Daichi began," we only can use our magic a couple of times a day on Earth, we only have full control in hell. I already used it all up when I summoned multiple chocolate fountains the size of a house in your backyard this morning so I could enjoy it when we got back."

"You did what in my backyard now?" Jasmina said, before waving it off with a hand," never mind, what about the rest of you?"

"I used it to it's limit today too," Ari said as she raised her hands," you know, when I had to erase people's memories after Superbia went and threatened them all and when I fought with her."

"Don't look at me," Ira said," I started an earthquake."

"Are you telling me you're all completely useless right now?" Jasmina said, before her eyes settled on Priyanka," even you? From what I remember you only let weird purple ice shards appear today. Surely that's not everything you can do."

"Yes," Priyanka said as she folded her arms over each other," I can still erase his memories."

"Then do it," Jasmina said impatiently when Priyanka didn't say more.

"Why?" Priyanka said as she raised an eyebrow," this isn't my problem."

"Your pride is really getting on my nerves," Jasmina said, before just shaking her head," you know what, I'm a changed person. Old me would have been really petty about that, but no, not me now. I'll fix this."

She turned around as she walked towards Isaac, a sweet smile on her face as she crouched down beside him. He still seemed to be disoriented, confusion clouding up his eyes as he steadied himself with the floor, face pale.

"Jasmina?" he said.

"Oh, poor little Isaac," she cooed as she cupped his face in her hands," you fell quite hard, didn't you, spouting nonsense about magic and all."

"No," he said as he slowly shook his head, still blinking the stars in front of his vision away," I'm pretty sure I saw some random guy disappear in a cloud of smoke and that violent guy repaired the school with a wave of his hand."

"Did you just call the devil some random guy?" Priyanka said with a raised eyebrow.

"Did you just call me, the great Wrath, a violent guy?" Ira said, before a smile appeared on his face," I like it."

"Both of you shut up," Jasmina said, before correcting herself," I mean, if you would be so kind to -"

"Please don't pretend to be good," Priyanka said," it isn't a good look on you."

"That's false," Jasmina said," everything's a good look on me."

"Loving the confidence," Ari called out as she sat herself down on the window sill, before flashing a wolfish grin as she looked at Isaac," and his watch, can you get it for me?"

"I'm hungry, gorgeous," Daichi pouted," can we eat?"

"I feel like a mother," Jasmina exclamated," and I don't even want kids."

"You don't?" Daichi said," I think you'd be quite the good mother."

"Not the point you should focus on," Jasmina frowned," and I know I'd be good, I just don't want them."

"What in God's name are you all talking about?" Isaac said.

"God isn't real, my friend," Ira said as he nodded solemnly.

"Okay, back off, Nietzsche," Jasmina said, before turning towards Isaac and sighing," my father's foreign friends sent their kids here to live with us for a few days, but English isn't their first language, so ignore the nonsense."

"I may be Slovakian, but that's offensive," Ira frowned.

"You're from he - I mean, here," Jasmina corrected herself," your true heart is here if you want it to be, is what I mean. Also, you know, since I've lived with my parents in Uzbekistan until I was six, they thought I was best suited to let them know more about learning the English language a bit later."

"They seem fluent," Isaac said.

"And I thought you seemed confused," she smiled," seems we're all having misunderstandings here."

Isaac grabbed her hand then, pulling her closer so his lips grazed her ear as he spoke.

"I'm not sure what's going on, Jasmina," he said softly," last time I saw you you were hit by a car and now you're back, completely fine, with four strangers in tow."

"What about it?" Jasmina said.

"I'm just worried," Isaac frowned," aren't your parents putting too much pressure on you after you got released from the hospital? You need some time alone to recuperate, not immediately be thrown in yet another task."

"Trust me, I'm in a way better place now than I was when I was hit by that car," Jasmina said.

"I can believe that," he said," but I still don't want you to overexert yourself."

"Why?" she said with raised eyebrows," why do you care? You don't know me at all."

"I helped you, albeit unknowingly, in smashing Alan's car window," he said with a faint smile," I'd say we're partners in crime now."

"I don't do crime anymore," she said as she looked him in the eye," I'm a changed person, you know."

"That's too bad," he said softly as his eyes trailed down to her lips, lingering there before he locked his gaze with hers again," I always found you most fascinating while you were committing crimes, after all."

She knew the game of love like the back of her hand, flirting and teasing her weapons of choice as she gently placed a hand on his cheek, long nails softly pressed against his skin - it was her favorite game to play and she always won.

"You should see me be good then," she smiled as her lips grazed the side of his, so close she almost kissed him.

She could see he was out of breath as he looked her in the eye and she smirked triumphantly, knowing he wouldn't ask any questions after this. He parted his lips to reply and then -

"Wow, you two really have some strong sexual tension in the air here."

Jasmina blinked as she looked at the girl who was just beside them all of a sudden, her face so close she could feel her ice cold, strawberry breath on her cheek, like a kiss from death.

And as she looked at the devastatingly gorgeous girl, she sighed and dropped her hand from Isaac's face.

"Are you fucking kidding me?"

"Nice to meet you, loves," she smiled," I'm Luxuria. Just call me Lucy."
