Pringles had sat down quietly deciding not to tell Laharl about mid-boss. He had even managed to find a spare room in the castle and decided firmly that it would be his room and to hell with everyone else.
The red eyed warrior soon fell into a deep slumber unaware of the cat like eyes that followed him. Kanako studied the scarred warrior's form and decided that while he wasn't any stronger then the other guards he seemed smarter or at least not as lazy and decided not to try to steal what she wanted while he was around.
Satisfied that he wasn't going to wake up any time soon Kanako ran off to find food using rafters and shadowy spots like she was taught to avoid detection and after sometime she wandered into the castle's kitchen.
It seemed it was too earlier or may be late for meals and Kanako found herself alone with the refrigerator. Opening the large storage device Kanako found food of all sorts including her very favorite jiggly wiggly dark brown food black sea pudding.
Being a child and very hungry Kanako dived face first into the tasty goop devouring it all in a matter of minutes, after which the little thief began getting sleepy and decided to find a place to nap.
Unfortunately she ran about and settled on a coffin in the center of a small dark room which was as most of the castle residents knew was the room of the great prince Laharl.

Tarein was reluctant to leave Vyers' side for even a moment. She didn't understand why he couldn't come with her.
Reluctantly, she released herself from his grip and took a step forward. She stopped and turned around "Thank you again, Mister." she didn't want to attempt his name again.
She turned around slowly and began walking toward the castle, scared out of her mind that something would jump out of nowhere to attack her, but optimistic about the helpful angel that may live inside. If there really was one in there, all her problems would be solved. Any angel living in the Netherworld would have to be some kind of expert. The other resident would be the one she was worried about.
She stopped a few times, wondering if it was worth it before she continued up to the castle gates. She looked back at Vyers once more before finishing her approach.

Gin sighed, finally reaching the castle. He really hated the walk back to the castle, seeing as though that there was only one way in, and if you tried any other way, you got dipped in hot lava. He looked down at the young Earth girl. She WAS pretty cute. "Hey, d00d. Come with me, and I'll show you where you can stay. Are you hungry, d00d?"
Gin haden't been this nice to anyone since he'd started working at the castle (except, on rare occasions, Flonne), but it kinda felt refreshing to know that Gin still had a heart. He outstreched his flipper to Tarein.

Pringles had woken up and on habit assumed guard duty on habit and watched as the small green prinny approached the castle's entrance. "Hey Gin dood. what's up with the kiddy looking de--" The red eyed warrior stopped suddenly as he saw her ears.
most demons would think due to her aura that the girl before him was a demon and in fact part of his brain did stall a bit on that fact. Pringles on the other hand learned as much as humans as he could despite being told that he would forget it and one thing he knew was that the girls ears were definitely human which made her the same.
"Gin get her inside now!" the red eyed warrior stated slightly panicked. calming down slightly the supposed hero of prinnies took a sitting position facing the girl. "Listen sweetheart you need to do something. cover your ears from now on, they're a dead give away that you're human and a lot of demons don't follow the rules that the king made anymore." Paused pringles finally got a handle of his nerves.
"inside the castle though the king's word is absolute...meaning that you'll be safe here." Pringles smiled gently as he hoped his scars would not upset the child.
meanwhile kanako had found the castle's Treasury vault left open by some careless demon. "*rawr, nyah*" she cried joyfully rushing into the room toward all the shiny things.

Tarein was surprised at the helpful Demon. He looked kind of Human to her, she never really noticed the ears. She didn't have time to react in surprise before the person had conveyed his message and left.
She wasn't aware that there were rules for Humans in the Netherworld though. Maybe this 'Laharl' person wouldn't be as bad as Vyers had described if he kept Humans in mind.
Anyway, she was within the castle walls now, but she didn't feel like it was really her place to go searching around for stuff. She lacked the mischievous nature of the Demons. Quietly hoping no one would notice, she sat in the corner of the castle foyer, holding her legs close to her chest. She made sure to let her hair fall over her ears to hide them as the strange man instructed. And so she waited.

Gin sighed at Tarein. She certainly wasn't a demon, that's for sure. Any demon kid would have at least explored the castle, not to mention try to steal at least SOMETHING. Humans were interesting, that much was true. Shrugging, he left her, hoping that if she got hungry or the like, she would seek him out.
Gin then walked past the castle vault, which was hanging wide open. Huh. There was a lot of pretty valuable stuff in there. No wonder the prince was so ri-WAIT WHAT?! THE VAULT WAS OPEN?! Gin quickly skittered inside to make sure that nothing (that he knew of) was stolen. Looking around the mounds of gold, he noticed something a bit out of place. A small child had wormed her way inside the vault. Gin furrowed his brow. Dammit, this was a castle, not a day-care center! Gin picked up Kanako, and looked at her. "Hey, d00d. You're not supposed to be in here, d00d.", Gin scolded. He carried her out of the vault, and slammed the door shut.
"HEY!! GODDAMMIT, I'M TRYING TO SLEEP!!"
Gin eeked at the roar of an angry Manticore, and tried being as quiet as possible. He leaned over to Kanako. "Listen, d00d. Around the vault, we gotta be quiet, okay d00d?"

Pringles satisfied that the girl was safe start away from the castle running into Aros. "Hey dood, Laharl was at the frozen river" the little prinny stated promting Pringles to change his barring.
"Thanks aros dood. take over guard duty dood" the red eyed warrior laughed as he headed out toward the river.
Kanako tilted her head at the green prinny. "*rawr*" she cried happily as she hugged the off colour penguin.

Gin recoiled a bit at this little demon suddenly going into a hugging fit. Huh. Quite the little tyke, she was. Then Gin got an idea. Maybe if Tarein met a demon about her age, she would unwind a bit. Gin took Kanako over to where Tarein was sitting, and plopped Kanako down next to her. "There, d00d! Now you have a playmate, d00d. I'll be back to check up on your two in a bit, but I have work to do, d00ds.", Gin explained to the fragile Human girl. He then waddled off back to the vault to make sure nothing was stolen.
As Gin walked back, he noticed Manty sitting in front of the vault. "First you steal my drink, and THEN from the treasure vault? I'm gonna wring you out, you little bastard!", the manticore taunted. Before Gin could take a step away, Manty grabbed him, and grinned. He then proceded to throw him back into the entrence hall.
"NO DON'T THROW ME D00D YOU KNOW WHAT HAPPENS OHMYGODPLEASEDONTTHROWMED00D-"
BOOOOOOOOOM!!
Gin layed on the floor, his skin smoldering from the explosion. "Oooouugh...no respect around here, d00d...."

Tilted her head at Tarein curiously, the ears on her hat twitched downward as she felt the presence around the human girl. Suddenly the blue eyed girl's stomach growled loudly and interested in the new girl Kanako got up and did the best she could to communicate hunger to the human girl using her puppets complete with sound effects which was at best an odd sight indeed.

At first, Tarein shied away from the Demon girl, afraid she might hurt her while only somewhat comforted by the fact that she apparently wasn't supposed to. Then she pulled out the puppets. That was when Tarein realized that this person wasn't going to hurt her... she was just kind of weird...
She had no idea what the other girl was attempting to do, but it obviously wasn't threatening. It took her a moment to realize that her stomach was growling fiercely at her. In the confusion of the new environment, she had almost forgotten how hungry she was.
"Umm... hello." she started to say, but was interrupted by Gin, quickly flying back out of the other room, screaming at the top of his lungs. The ensuing explosion had Tarein make a brief scream and cover herself back up for a moment. In a minute, she looked up and saw Gin. "Mister penguin man?" she stood up and slowly approached to see if he was okay.
