Obey Me! : A collection of short stories (FINISHED)

O-S 6 : Paws and Claws.

Hellooo! ^^ This one is short, and totally self-indulgent! It helped me practice writing the brothers though!

*** *** ***

          The day after Mammon and Satan had broken the vial, she woke up, feeling something unusual on her head. She sat up in her bed, reaching out to these things on her head. She immediately widened her eyes, and got up from bed to check on her mirror. She almost fell when she noticed her feet weren't bare, but had some sorts of boots. Boots with a lot of wool covering it. Looking at her hands, she saw them covered in gloves. With wool around her wrists. Finally reaching her mirror, she understood.

          They had all wondered why the syrup turning them into animals hadn't worked on her. They had concluded it just didn't work on humans. But she knew the real explanation now. It just took more time for the syrup to take effects on humans. She was now...half sheep. Still not believing it entirely, she went out of her room to go see the others who were probably having breakfast. When they saw her, a big silence fell, until everyone exclaimed various things all at the same time, to the point where she could barely understand them.

"So it does work on humans too." Stated Lucifer first, nodding.

"You're so cute, Namiko!" Exclaimed Asmo, standing up to come closer.

"Finally I'm not the only one to be a herbivore!" Cheered Levi, balling his fists in victory.

"I'm kind of glad I broke that vial with Mammon" Smiled Satan. "It seems it just takes more time to affect humans."

"So...So are ya a sheep now?" Asked Mammon, fidgeting.

"Seems like it yeah." Replied Belphie, with a smile that made her shiver.

         She had absolutely not thought about it, but most of them were carnivores now. If as a human they already had some troubles controlling themselves, now that she was literally a sheep, it would just be harder for them. Beel seemed so hungry, but still fought to not come too near her, it was touching. But she totally froze when Lucifer with his ears and tail of a wolf stood before her, his eyes petrifying her. He had been the only one to control himself entirely when three of his brothers were struggling not to chase and try to eat her. But now...she was a sheep. She knew all too well what a wolf would want to do to a sheep.

"Wait, Lucifer!" Exclaimed Levi "You're not gonna try to eat Namiko, right?!"

          Satan came closer to her, as if to protect her. As a cat, he had no hunger to control. Just like Levi and Belphie. The three of them, she could "trust" in that way. But Lucifer, Beel, Asmo and Mammon? They would have a hard time controlling themselves. At least for a little time.

"No, I won't." Smiled Lucifer. "Although I do admit the urge to do so is stronger than before."

"You look even yummier!" Said Asmo, looking her up and down.

"You look fluffy too." Noted Belphie, wagging his even fluffier tail.

         She blushed at all their attention. She felt quiet trapped, so she diverted the conversation, remarking:

"Hey, now I'm the only one with horns! Even though you're demons and I'm human!"

"It's rather ironic yeah." Replied Satan, nodding with a smile.

         They continued chatting, Levi, Satan and Belphie keeping an eye out for their brothers in case they'd attack. Belphie admitted he had to control himself too, but the urge to eat her wasn't strong enough to actually make him struggle to control himself. Sheeps weren't foxes' prays after all. Eventually, the others could stand her presence without troubles, and the day passed uneventfully.

         During the week, there were some slip ups from some of the brothers, not nothing too serious, and she never got hurt. She trusted them, and they were too touched to even break that trust.

         She got to take some naps with Belphie, sleeping on his tail, curled up against him. She got to toss some balls at Satan and Mammon, ignoring their protestations as she laughed wholeheartedly. She did shiver when Beel ate some cooked sheep in front of her, an irrational fear taking place in her mind, until she regained control of herself. Beel had apologized several times, and she assured him it was no big deal, she just hadn't expected it.

          Lucifer did corner her a few times to tease her, often caressing her horns with a seductive smile, making her blush, before letting go with a chuckle. She took so many photos with Asmo she was actually surprised by the amount. It wasn't that rare of him to take photos of her, but he didn't do it nearly as much, usually. He kept saying they were the two cutest of the group, so they had to take those selfies and post these in Devilgram. She didn't mind, rather flattered.

         Finally, after a week, Luke came to the House of Lamentation with a new vial, and they all regained their normal appearance. They all had to admit it was a fun adventure and being half animal wasn't so bad, but they were still glad to be themselves again. At least they had plenty of photos to remember this crazy week.
