The black and white world floated around Lee Seng. The sun's light felt cold here. He sighed, knowing exactly where he ended up. He turned around, listening to a cane hit the concrete.

"Do you remember me?" Cain asked. He wore his usual fedora hat and actually wore his full face this time. He was prim and proper and the cane he had in front of him was a dangerous weapon. Cain didn't do anything. He seemed unimpressed that Lee Seng had actually shown up. "Even with the Demon Affliction amnesia, you should still remember what happened the last time you came here" Cain raised his cane like he was going to swing. He sighed and set it back in its place.

"But it seems like you're here completely alone, little Fox." Cain told Lee Seng. Lee Seng was confused. He didn't understand what Cain had meant by that, but Cain was already moving forward towards him. "It seems like something has occurred. Your spirit is within my Realm. What should I do with you?" For a moment, Lee Seng felt immediate dread wrap around his entire body. He wanted to run away but his legs felt heavy. He tried to speak, but nothing came out. Cain lifted his cane and set it on his right shoulder. He was mere inches away from Lee Seng when he stopped.

The glamor of Cain's form shifted for a moment. The billowing V opening white shirt shifted. A black overcoat on his shoulders as black pants and black boots appeared. This. This was the Cain/Hat Man Lee Seng knew. He was oddly… Charming, still.

"Aren't you going to ask what I mean by that?" Cain asked. "Well, I don't think it's fully sunk in, yet." Cain slowly started to circle Lee Seng as he stood there, frozen. "You, my little Fox, have separated your soul from your body. Those chains on your heart are tight. I'm surprised you're here and not where you're supposed to be. I'm sure that old Fox King would've taken you in by now."

Cain pointed straight at Lee Seng's heart. The sound of chains moving scared him. He jumped backwards, unfreezing from his position as Cain lowered the large black longsword, setting the tip onto the ground like his cane.

"What do you mean by that?" Lee Seng asked. He patted himself down and realized he had an ethereal look to him. He was partially see-through. "WAH! What the fuck?!?"

"You're partially see-through, not completely invisible." Cain quickly told him. "You'll be fine if you don't push your soul away further than it needs to be."

"I had a heart attack and my soul separated from my body?" Lee Seng repeated the information.

"Yes." Cain nodded.

"And it was because of those chains…"

Cain didn't answer.

"So, what happens to me now? Am I dead?" Lee Seng asked, looking at Cain.

"No, you're not dead. Not yet at least." Cain smiled with his perfect teeth. For a Lord of Limbo, he had the "purest" look amongst them.

"Can I go back?" Lee Seng turned around looking for his body. He was in a completely different space. He was nowhere near his home and everything around him looked unfamiliar.

"You cannot go back. Not yet at least." Cain dragged the longsword up and swung it onto his shoulder. Lee Seng looked back at Cain as Cain started walking towards him. "You can't go back just like that. It wouldn't be fun."

"I need to figure out what that thing inside me is and I need to get rid of it before I actually turn into a demon." Lee Seng told him. Cain slammed his foot down, emitting a burst of souls flying about.

"Mmm, that's not my problem is it? You come down here with your soul looking like this, I'm going to dictate whether or not you can go back." Cain shook his head.

"But, Cain, I–"

"Lord Cain to you, kid. Dead or not, you still have to show some respect. Don't want to tell your God King that you were rude and I took you as my own." Cain corrected Lee Seng with a threat. Lee Seng gulped. Cain felt more menacing even though he wasn't even that mad.

"S-sorry, Lord Cain.. I just…" Lee Seng stuttered.

"Follow me." Cain spun around, motioning to come with his left hand.

"Huh?" Lee Seng stuttered. Cain simply motioned for Lee Seng to follow. Lee Seng bit his lip and jogged after the Lord of Limbo. He followed him down the cracked concrete road that led straight to a familiar tower.

'That's the tower from last time.' Lee Seng remembered. The door swung open and Cain stepped inside. Lee Seng followed him down the path and through the large doors. Five chairs were lined up in front of him with Cain's chair the highest out of the five. Cain turned around and sat down. His longsword disappearing in his hand as a crest Lee Seng hadn't noticed before, appeared behind Cain's head. The doors shut behind Lee Seng, making him jump as he turned to look behind him.

"Oh, the little Fox demon comes again!" Lady Beth giggled. The ethereal woman smiled at him before moving through him and sitting in her chair.

"Lady Beth, I didn't think you'd show up so soon. I thought you didn't really care for the Fox Spirit Hybrid." Cain looked at Beth. She chuckled and glanced at Cain before turning her attention to Lee Seng.

"He's a soul. A special soul. Of course I'd be interested in him." Beth replied. "Plus, I want to know what you're going to do to him." Cain sighed and snapped his fingers. The circular carpet lit up forming a magical circle full of ghastly soul faces.

"I'm going to turn him into a stone." Cain replied.

"What?" Lee Seng shouted in disbelief.

"A stone? Why? He should be a building block for your kingdom?" Beth asked, intrigued by Cain's sudden judgment.

"I-I thought you were gonna tell me how to get back to my body! I don't want to die!"

"Silence." Cain raised his finger to his lips. Lee Seng's lips zipped as Cain's crimson eyes stared at him.

'Why does he have to look at me like that?' Lee Seng wondered. He turned his gaze away. 'I won't give in so easily.'

"Why? Are you into me?" Cain chuckled, appearing in front of Lee Seng. He brushed a smooth, bony finger across Lee Seng's cheek. Lee Seng swung and Cain took a step back, avoiding the hit.

"MM MMM MMM!" Lee Seng shouted with his mouth shut. Cain and Beth chuckled.

"This one has fight in him. He could be WAY more useful as a Debt Collector than a stone." Beth told Cain.

"A Debt Collector?" Cain glanced at Beth.

"Yes, m'lord. He could play the part so well. He's hot, got an attitude, and is even admitting he's into you! You could use this Fox as a Collector or dare I even say!" Beth gasped, covering her mouth. She let out a giggle before moving her hand to the side. "He could be your next plaything." She widened her eyes, letting out a gasp like she's innocent. A smile curled on her ethereal face as she looked over at Lee Seng.

"I haven't slept with a Fox, yet." Cain nodded, entertaining the idea. Lee Seng screamed in protest but Cain simply shushed him. Lee Seng tried making noise but nothing ever came out. He clutched his throat and looked at Cain like he was insane. "As much as making a Fox Spirit my plaything, I don't want to make it non-consensual. I want my partners to feel all of my ecstasy I have to offer, not tortured." Cain appeared behind Lee Seng, brushing his face.

Lee Seng swung at him, missing once again as he spun around. Cain was nowhere to be seen.

"Right here." Cain smiled, resting his head on Lee Seng's shoulder. Lee Seng swung again and Cain appeared sitting in his chair, one leg on top of the other. "I would do that if it were anyone else, but it's this one in particular." CAin pointed.

"Awh." Beth frowned.

"I have plans for you, Lee Seng Chang. And before you throw a bigger fit, you should hear me out 'til the end. Who knows? You'll like the deal and take it." Cain shrugged. Lee Seng grasped at his mouth and Cain made an unzip motion across his mouth.

"I'm not going to sleep with a dude who can literally dematerialize and re-materialize his facial parts at any moment!" Lee Seng shouted.

"Ouch." Cain mimicked Lee Seng's words stabbing into his heart.

"You think I'm some joke! I'm–" Lee Seng began to march forward when the ghastly soul faces screeched upwards, pushing him back.

"Do not test me, Lee Seng. I could squash your soul and let your body and Keng's entire being turn into demon foxes and ravage everyone around you two. I could even let that faux-demon out, too." Cain threatened him. Lee Seng gulped and took a step back. The ghastly souls died down as Beth swung her feet. She was enjoying this and Lee Seng didn't like her one bit.

"My mood has been soured. Instead of being a rock and waiting for the right time to go back like I was going to suggest, you can do some Debt work for me. It's not like your old man can do anything about that. He didn't specify when I had to turn you into a rock. He just specified when I have to." Cain's lips curled.
