Nyx smiled and hugged Noemi."Not much.I actually need to talk to
Mister Ricky about something."She replies before letting Noemi go
and scratching at her neck turning it once again into a bright red
mess.
Nyx blushed slightly before following Ricky.She walked beside him
in silence for a few minutes before speaking."Do you remember?"She
tilts her head to look up at Ricky.
"I remember everything. Even though my head is a mess, all of the
demons make sure I never forget. So you warned me, I failed, blah
blah blah." Ricky replied.
Nyx licked at her lips a bit before scratching her neck."My offer
still stands.I'll shoulder everything you want me to.You and your
demons."She says.She makes sure that Ricky could see into her eyes
so he could see how truthful she was being.
Nyx shakes her head."I don't care.As I told the ghost that showed
me your memories I'll help everyone here in the mansion even if it
costs me my life."Her eyes showed her determination to follow
through with what she said."That includes you as well."
"I'm not offering sympathy or pity.Just help as you need it."Nyx
said.She frowns when she noticed Ricky was frowning.She stands on
her tiptoes and uses two fingers to draw a smile on his face."And
smile.You look happier when you smile."
Nyx opens the door to the bedroom and walks to over to the door way
that leads to the wine cellar."Wonder which one he may want.I know
the older they are the more better they are,or at least that is
what I have been told."She carefully made her way down and started
looking at the different bottles."Hmm might not want to go to old
yet not too young."She goes over to the rack that holds the wine
from 1902 and pulls out a bottle of red wine."Hmm this should be
good."
Ricky pulled out a recorder, "Happy birthday to me, blah blah blah.
Onslaught is near here so I am trying get a few gadgets from my
base, but alas it will take a few hours to teleport to me due to
all this magic."

Noemi sighed, "Sometimes when he thinks no one is around he grunts
in pain and curls up into a ball for a minute or two."
"Yes, I imagine it puts a lot of strain on his body to maintain the
upkeep of so many souls." Shayla began to mess with a strand of her
hair. "Generally speaking it's hard for a body to maintain two let
alone more."
