A slight breeze swung the body slightly, and the Faust's soul took a shuddering breath. Don't look at that, it begged. I would hate for you to see... and I have a confession. I love you. I've always loved you.

She leaned against the tree,"We'll get you out of this..."She promised,"I just don't know what to do from here..."A tear slid down her cheek.

Mephisto looked up as Lucifer appeared. The Devil saw Faust and sighed. "We made a deal, didn't we? How is it you even had the motivation to come and find your soul?"
"I didn't," Faust said. "Somone... who cared about me... did."
Lucifer craned his neck. "Girl! You, up there! Come down here."

"I'll be back..."She promised Faust. Netsubo quickly slipped out of the tree,"Yes?"She asked, looking Lucifer straight in the eye, no fear showing.

"Something tells me that you're not just here to visit," Lucifer said, calmly lighting a cigar and drawing a puff. "What possessed you to come to the Seventh, with your son, no less? Have you forgotten that Faust and I made a deal, for your very life?"

"I know that...I just wondered...,"She bit her lip,"If you were interested in a game?"

"Depends on the stakes," Lucifer said silkily. "Your soul would do nicely."
"Nestubo..." Faust said quietly. "Even I don't trust my judgement, at this point... but I really don't think that you should do this."
"I agree with him, for once," Yuki admitted.

"You both might agree, but when have I ever been known to listen?'She asked. To Lucifer she said,"Fine, I'll bet my soul....However, I get to choose the game...."
((What should it be? XD ))

((I guess that only Netsubo knows! XD How about something really lame, like "Battleship?" ))
Lucifer smirked. "Fine. You choose the game, and I, a supernatural powerhouse, compete to the best of my ability. If I win, I take your soul. If you win, you can have Faust's back. Sound savvy?"

((hmm....how bout she has to guess out of three souls, which one Faust is? ))
Netsubo nodded,"Yes...."She thought about what game to play.

((That sounds good!))
"Hm... I'm having a thought," Lucifer said. "Souls look very similar to each other... but a person who truly knows the soul of their lover can pick it out of a veritable sea of them. Now... there is something in your favor, here. They are all different colors... souls are, I mean. You don't know Faust's, however."

Netsubo looked at him,"So you're saying that if I can find Faust's soul, he can come with us?"She asked. She began to think of everything she knew about Faust and how that could help her.

"That's right," Lucifer said, rubbing his palms together. "A color. Otherwise, souls look identical." he snapped his fingers, and all the trees surrounding them lost their leaves in unison. He spread his fingers, and at the tip of each was a wavery, flickering sphere, each a different color. "Green, yellow, blue, red, white, black, violet, indigo, orange, brown. Pick a color, any color."

Netsubo closed her eyes. This would be a bit harder than she thought,"ARe there any rules to this game?"She asked.

"You have two tries." Mephisto waved his arms and held up three fingers. "Oh, fine. Three tries... but if you miss, you go straight to hell. Three chances." he held out his fingers. "Be careful. They're very fragile."
