Enjoy the chapter <3 )

Robin leans back in his chair, his face still slightly red "I've fought some pretty big baddies and the Devil seems like he would take the cake." He looks at me "But you don't seem very devilish…"

I roll my eyes "Would you prefer I walk around like this?" My horns sprout for my head, my wings from my back, and my crown of fire blazes to life.

They all visibly flinch. Starfire rubs her chin "I have been taught not to judge by looks… but you appear very evil."

I shrug "Stereotypes."

Miss Martian hugs the parchment "Can I fill this out later?

"Of course, it will take effect the second you sign your name." my eyes turn to Supergirl while putting away my demonic features.

"What would you like beautiful?" I give her a warm smile.

She blushes a bit "Ummmm, how about 10,000,000 dollars?" She says with a small grin.

I shrug "Okay." I pull out my phone and pull up my banking app. The number that is shown in my account surprises me. 'Business is going well'.

"Eh." all of them are taken aback by my acceptance.

I reach out my hand "Phone." She hands me her phone absentmindedly. I open her banking app and wire her 13 million dollars.

Handing back her phone I speak "I added 3 million to it for taxes ."

She takes her phone back with wide eyes looking at her account. "I thought you said you only work in contracts?"

"Introducing new money into the economy can have bad results," I smirk turning to Starfire.

She sits up straight under my gaze and begins to ponder "Uh, I can't think of anything I want. Maybe a sundae with banana's, chocolate, ketchup, and a pickle on top?"

Everyone in the room winces at her request even my brows furrow a bit in disgust. "I think I have a moral obligation to refuse…" At my words, everyone sighs in relief.

She presses her finger against her temples as she thinks hard and eventually deflates "I don't know what I would want.'

"Let me help you then. Look into my eyes."She meets my eyes as I request a bit confused. "What is it you truly d.e.s.i.r.e."

Her face becomes sad as she looks down at the table "I want my sister to love me... " Robin puts his hand on her back as he looks at her with concern.

"I don't usually dabble in manipulating feelings but I can bring her here and have a talk with her." She perks up at my word but her face quickly falls again.

"She does not love me… she never will. I gave her a chance with Truth or Kill and she tried to kill me…" Her voice sounds pained.

"But she did not and mortals are fickle in their feelings who knows." I create another contract out of flames and slide it over to Starfire.

Starfire looks at Robin with confidence after reading the contract "Pen please."

"Starfire, are you really going to trust him? He could be playing us all." His words earn him a glare from Starfire.

Her eyes narrow "Pen. Please." Robin sighs as he grabs a pen from his utility belt and hands it to her.

She immediately signs the contract and I can feel the contact link me to Blackfire. With a snap of my fingers, Blackfire appears in a burst of flames to my right.

She is tall, over six feet, with long thick dark black hair. Her eyes are a dark violet with mascara to match. She wears black tight-fitting clothes with silver armor trimmed around it. She has high heel boots and slightly orangish skin like Starfire.

The first difference that strikes me is the curvier body, she but Starfire to shame. Although her b.r.e.a.s.ts are slightly smaller. Only after observing her features do I realize she is shackled, her hands and feet bound together.

She looks around very confused along with everyone else in the room. Although I see Starfire hide behind Robin's back peaking past at her sister.

After recognizing the faces in the room a smirk grows on her face "Did you guys miss me?" She turns to me "Was it you who brought me here?"

I smile at her quick observation "A smart one I see. I did indeed bring you here. I figured I would be better at reforming you than any mortal prison."

Her eyes narrow at me as she puts up her arms gesturing at the shackles. I smile as I raise a finger towards her and hellfire burns a line through the metal in multiple places causing them to shatter and fall off.

She smiles at me as she rubs her wrists but her smile quickly turns to a face of rage as she winds up to punch me. I shake my head as I use Sloth to freeze the room. I look her in her now stilled eyes as my own eyes turn pitch black.

I unfreeze time as she falls over in her semi-eternal nightmare, I softly catch her as she does. Starfire jumps up "What did you do to her!?" Her hands glowing in bright green light.

I smile towards her "Don't worry little one she is in timeout until I leave." I look at Superboy "Can you put her in a bed until I leave?"

Superboy looks at Robin who gives him a nod. Superboy walks over and picks her up from my arms and walks out of the room. Starfire still sits back down still giving me a glare.

Robin speaks up first "Is there anything else you wanted to get out of this visit?"

I turn to face Raven "Not when I first came… but now it's a bit different."

I create a third contract and slide it over to Raven "It will become active on the day you turn 18. If you want to free yourself from your father just sign it and I'll be there."

Raven's eyes skim the contract and her emotionless face tints red as she does. Miss Martian leans over curious to see what it says but Raven hides it before she can.

Kara looks hard at Raven and back at me and I feel the temperature in the room drop. "You want her to see herself to you for saving her from her father, don't you?"

My eyes roll as I feel her voice is a bit stuck up "View it as you will, I don't really care. If she wants to she will sign the contract. If she doesn't I can count on one hand the number of people who can free her. Three of them serve me."

Her eye glare at me hard as I ignore her and look back at Robin "Now that my work here is done I'll be on my way." I stand up and start to turn around but stop.

"And by the way… Robin. Tell that stupid f.u.c.k.i.n.g Bat to start killing his enemies. I can't punish the wicked if he just puts them in jail to escape again. Honestly." Robin looks at me confused.

Remembering who I am he nods "I've been telling him since I was little, sometimes it's necessary. He won't listen to reason but I believe you should always try and not kill when you can."

I sigh and shrug as he throws something at me and I catch it in the air. It looks like a complex walkie talkie. I look back at Robin confused.

"It's just in case. You seem like not such a bad person despite being the devil." He smirks at his works but doesn't seem confident in them.

I look around the room "If you ever need my help, just pray to The Morningstar and I will help you. I'll give you one freebie."

Without waiting for an answer I turn around and walk out. Just outside the door is Superboy leaning against the wall giving me a side-eye.

"I'll show you where I put her." He leads me down the hallway only a few doors down to an infirmary. On the way I see the Green-boy again, this time he is walking next to and flirting with a short blond-haired girl wearing a tight-fitting black teeshirt.

After picking her up I give him thanks and vanish heading back to the penthouse. As I arrive I toss her in the spare room and head to the kitchen to make lunch before Tandy and Ruby get back. I had texted them ahead of time to come home for lunch.
