Drago looked in the window of the interrogation room. There he was. The shark that killed cold blooded a wolf in front of him. He was just sitting there smiling, probably because of the money he just obtained, and the dragon just couldn't stand it. Suddenly a white lioness entered the interrogation room and sat in front of the shark. Drago sat on a chair and turned the microphone on. He wanted to hear what that bastard had to say.

"So..." Tess, the lioness, started "could we know your name?"

"Lucifer." The shark answered.

"And your surname?" she asked with a soft motherlike tone.

"Don't have one, and if I do my father never told me." the shark answered, this time looking at his hands.

"And were are your parents?"

"Dead. Both of them. First my mother then my dad some years ago. It's from him I learned this job."

"So you leave alone?" Tess asked a bit worried now, it was hard to believe that a teenager was a psycho orphan killer and learned his job from his father.

"Could I talk with the guy that gave me a punch? I think he is the only one with enough guts to ask me real questions." the shark said pissed off.

"He can't come. He's occupied in other matters, now answer this question. Why did you kill that guy?"

"I'm waiting"

"Answer my question kid!"

The shark started to sing. He didn't even care what was happening. And that made Tess furious. She stand up and exited the room. The protocol wanted that no matter what an Angel couldn't stop interrogating a Demon unless extreme cases, but Drago knew that if a Demon wanted to speak only with one, then they would speak only with that one. He sighed and got up from the chair while Tess entered the room.

"Seems it's your turn boy. Maybe you'll have more luck"

"Maybe. I'm starting to think that maybe I should give him another punch. This time in the guts"

Tess smiled "Don't tempt your fortune."

"I won't" said that, he exited the room and went in the shark's one.

"I heard that you wanted to talk with me" he started when entered.

"Yep. I think that you are the only one that have the guts to interrogate me seriously mr... ?"

"Why don't you say your name to start?"

"I think you already know my name. You see, stand to my theory you are to angry with me for killing the wolf even though I knew you were already inside my house, so you stand behind that window..." he pointed at the mirror "... And heard the entire conversation of less then five minutes earlier. So why should I repeat myself?" he ended crossing his arms.

"Let's admit that you theory is true and I'm angry with you for that reason. You should tell me your name and surname for education, respect and because you would be very rude not saying it."

"Well, like I said earlier, my name is Lucifer and I don't have a surname, at least not that I know. My names came from an idea of my father he thought that my mother was an angel and she could only give birth to another angel. But during her pregnancy she got very ill, the cures costed and with his job my father couldn't afford them. It was then that the company called him and proposed him to become a Demon. He accepted immediately and like that my mother health problems were solved. But giving me birth costed her to much energies so she died some days later. Unfortunately even I had a permanent disease so he had to keep the job and always brought me with him at work. It was there that I learned the different uses of the knifes. I had five years when my father told me the reason of my name. It was because I had become a Demon since I was born. It was the only way I could, and still now the only I can, afford my medicine. I'm Lucifer. The angel that fell in hell." he ended placing his hands on the desk "Now can I know your name?"

Drago sighed "Unfortunately I my name don't have such an interesting story. My name is Drago, I know very original. I won't tell you my surname for obvious reasons and before you ask" he pointed at his white feathered wings, only part white of his scaly black body except for his horns "This wings are natural, actually from my mom. Will you answer my questions now Lucifer?"

"I think I can. Not that I have much option." he answered crossing his arms again and waving his tail.

"Did you have a specific reason to that wolf?"

"Not really. Like I said to D before starting to work on his skin, it's my job. I do it only for money. It could have been him like it could have been anybody else." He answered already annoyed.

"So you killed a friend, because it's like this that his parents said you two were, friends, just for money?"

"Yes. But you missed one thing. He wasn't my friend. Since we started to talk with each other I had decided to kill him. The reason? Money."

"I can't believe this." the dragon closed his eyes and took a deep breath to calm himself down before speaking again "You ended a life only for money?"

"For the third time. Yes!"

"But why?"

"Because money is the most important thing in this world. If my father could have gotten the money earlier my mother wouldn't have died. If he didn't need the money to cure me. " he rolled up his left sleeve to show the white disk attached to his wrist were the injections had to be done "And if he didn't need the money to cure me he would have never done that thing!!!" the last part was a shout full of anger. "I don't have friends. I can't allow myself that privilege. For now, the only thing I need is money. I ended my medicines with the dose of today. That's why I killed D in that way. I needed the bonus for the medicines, taxes and food. But thanks to you I won't need to kill for a while." he took a brake "Basically the reason I wanted to speak with you was this. I wanted to thank you for seeing D die. And for allowing me to take a break from my job for a while."

The dragon looked at the shark for another two minutes. Then he got up and exited the room. He felt pity for him. Entering the room were Tess was he looked at her. "I'm starting to feel sorry for giving him that punch."

"Why? He is just another bastard. We should just send him to Hell as soon as possible."

"Didn't you hear him? He is not doing this for choice. He is forced to do this" he looked at the shark through the window "I think I'll take care off him for a while."

"Don't tell me you actually believe that kid. I bet my tail he invented every single word." she pointed at Drago "And you are falling right in his trap"

"Say what you want, but rules say that if an Angel thinks he can make a Demon stop his madness then he can take him under his responsibility. And I'm going to do that."

"No you won't. You can't be serious can you? Not after what they've done to your father."

Drago closed his eyes to make those bad memories go away "Instead I will, and you can't stop me."

He exited the door and went to the boss office. He had a life similar to Lucifer one, both of their lives have been ruined by Demon, in a way or another, and he felt that he could help him save his own life before it was to late.
