"M-My pussy's...being used as a toy for your dick, a toy to rape and fuck," Koneko moaned.
"It's the perfect place for me to get off, isn't it?" her fallen angel master asked her with a grin, "Your tight little pussy will be the only place where I'll get off. And you'll also be the perfect toy for me to use to get off."
"Yes," Koneko nodded and moaned, "My pussy is the perfect place for you to get off. Y-You can cum inside me as much as you want, Master, even getting me pregnant if you want. I don't care anymore! This pleasure just feels so good!"
"That's good, Koneko," he smiled, "That's very good. So, you'll let me get you pregnant, then? Even if you're still young, you'll let me get you pregnant and carry my children?"
"Y-Yes, Master, yes, I'll let you get me pregnant," Koneko nodded, her moans becoming louder and her voice sounding more aroused, "I'll carry your children."
"Good girl, Koneko," the fallen angel master said as he continued to rape and fuck the teenage nekomata, "But if you think that having children is going to save you or your friends, think again. They'll just be raised and become part of our clan."
"T-That's fine, too, Master, it's fine," Koneko said, moaning.
"That's right, you don't need to worry about that. Just relax, enjoy this pleasure, and let me ravage your tight pussy with my big, thick, long, and hard dick, and let me cum inside you," the fallen angel smirked, "We'll make half-fallen angel, half-nekomata babies together!"
"I-I'll have your babies, M-Master," Koneko moaned.
The fallen angel master grinned and he said, "That's good. Very good. You're the best, Koneko. And you'll definitely be a great sex slave. Now, let's make you addicted to this pleasure, and let's have you experience a mind-blowing orgasm together!"
"Y-Yes, Master," Koneko moaned as she nodded.
The fallen angel master of Koneko continued pounding and thrusting his dick fast and hard into her pussy, which made her moan loudly from the rough treatment she was receiving, while the rest of the fallen angels surrounding her kept masturbating in front of her as they watched her and her master having sex.
Koneko was a moaning mess and a blushing mess, too. Her breasts were bouncing, her body was shuddering, and her pussy was tightening around her master's dick, squeezing and massaging it, while her toes were curled and her legs were shaking, and it was making her master feel even better as he raped and fucked her.
Koneko was getting closer to the brink of a mind-blowing orgasm, and her master was getting closer to the brink of a powerful orgasm as well, and when the two finally reached the brink, the fallen angel master gave Koneko's pussy a few more fast and hard thrusts before he buried his dick deep inside her and released his semen, flooding and filling her womb, making it grow full and large as her womb was filled to the brim, and triggering her orgasm, as well.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!!" the young nekomata screamed and shrieked, her eyes rolling back in pleasure behind her blindfold and her tongue hanging out as she felt her master's hot and warm semen rushing into her womb, which was now full of her master's semen, and the feeling made her scream, cry, and moan in pleasure as she had a powerful and mind-blowing orgasm.
The fallen angel master of Koneko had a smug grin on his face as he continued cumming inside the young nekomata, his dick continuously pumping his hot, warm, sticky, and gooey semen into her pussy, her womb, and her vagina, filling her up, and she could feel the mixture of the feeling of her pussy, her womb, and her vagina being filled up by her master's semen and the orgasmic feeling she was experiencing while the rest of the fallen angels surrounding her came and shot out their cum onto her body and covering her in their semen, some even landing on her breasts and her stomach, making her body shudder even more, as well.
"I can feel the sex slave tattoo engraving itself into your womb," her master told her as he was still cumming inside her, his cum spilling out of her and dripping out of her pussy and running down her legs, "This means that you're officially my personal sex slave and that no one else can touch you. You're mine and mine alone."
"T-This feels so good!" Koneko screamed and shrieked in pleasure while also feeling the sex slave tattoo on her stomach becoming permanent as it burned and engraved into her.
"You're mine, Koneko, mine," her fallen angel master moaned and groaned, "And you're my personal sex slave, and my bitch. You're the best sex slave I've ever had. I love you. I love you, Koneko!"
"I-I'm y-your personal s-sex slave, M-Master," the nekomata moaned and cried, her mind and thoughts going blank and fuzzy from the pleasure she was receiving, "I'm y-your bitch! I-I'll s-serve and obey you l-loyally f-forever! I-I love you, M-Master! I-I love y-you!"
Koneko's master leaned forward and he began kissing her while he continued cumming inside her, his hot, sticky, gooey, and warm semen flowing into her body and her womb, her own cum mixing with her master's semen as her cum flowed out of her pussy, and the young nekomata kissed back as the two were making out before they resume having sex.
Meanwhile, at the run-of-the-mill apartment complex, Asia, who was on her knees, was giving her first blowjob to her master who was an ordinary human being.
"Hey, you don't have to do that, you know?" he kindly told her.
Asia stopped for a moment to look at her master, even though she couldn't see him because of her blindfold, and said to him, "It's okay. This is the least I can do...to repay you for saving me...and buying my freedom, Master. So, let me suck on your dick for a bit."
"You don't have to, Asia, you really don't have to," he said.
"But I want to," Asia said, "Please, Master, let me suck on your dick and give you pleasure, too. It's only fair, since you plan to take my virginity and to give me the pleasure of having sex with you soon, so please, let me, Master. It's what I want."
"Well, if you insist, then, okay," her master said before he let her continue sucking his dick.
Asia had a blush on her face as she wrapped her mouth around her master's dick and resumed sucking on it, and she started bobbing her head back and forth and started giving him a proper blowjob.
She didn't really know how to give a blowjob, or how to give any form of sexual pleasure, but she didn't care. She just wanted to make her master feel good and give him pleasure.
"I can't wait until we have sex," her master thought as he watched her suck his dick.
"I hope he likes this," Asia thought as she was sucking her master's dick, "I can't wait until he takes my virginity. I'm looking forward to it. I can't wait for him to have sex with me, to have his way with me, to have his penis inside me, penetrating me, and to make me feel the pleasure that comes with sex and losing my virginity."
Asia was sucking and bobbing her head back and forth faster and harder, her tongue swirling around her master's dick, licking and savoring it, as well as sucking on his balls, which caused her master to moan, groan, and gasp since she couldn't use her hands since they were tied up and bound behind her back.
"Damn, I'm feeling good from this," her master thought, "Her technique may not be the best, but it still feels really good, and it's her first time, so it's understandable. But I bet that once we have sex, it'll feel even better." He then made her stop for a moment and said, "Hold on a moment." He then went and untied her hands behind her back, then undid her blindfold so that she could finally see before he told her, "Okay, there you go. I didn't want your hands and arms to feel sore from having them behind your back or your wrists to feel too painful from the tightness of the rope, and I want you to see my face and pleasure me. Now go on, you can continue. Use your hands to please me if you want."
"Thank you, Master." Asia nodded gratefully before she resumed sucking his dick.
"He really is a nice man," Asia thought as she resumed giving him a blowjob, "A good man. He bought me, and saved me. He could have just fucked me right after, but he chose to treat me with kindness. He even gave me the choice to leave. I won't forget his kindness. And if it's with him, then I'll have no problem losing my virginity and being his sex slave."
She sucked on her master's dick harder and faster, her tongue swirling and licking around it, and she began stroking and massaging it, as well, and she began fondling his balls with her free hand, which caused him to moan, gasp, and groan, and then she took his dick deep into her mouth, and she gagged slightly before she was able to fully engulf his whole dick in her mouth.
"Ah, yeah, that's it, Asia," her master groaned as he held her head in place to have her keep sucking his dick, "That's it, baby. Just like that. Keep sucking. Make me cum. Make me cum, and then drink it all."
"Okay," Asia nodded and said, her words muffled and muffled by his dick, and she kept sucking and bobbing her head back and forth and giving him a blowjob, and soon enough, her master groaned loudly reached his climax, and he ejaculated and came inside her mouth, and he had a lot of semen, filling up her mouth with his semen and causing her cheeks to puff up.
Asia choked and gagged on the amount of cum that was being released in her mouth for a moment before she began to gulp it down, swallowing and drinking his cum, and it didn't take her long to finish and swallow his whole load, and when she did, her master pulled out his dick, and there was a bit of his semen left in her mouth.
"Here's the rest of my cum," her master said, "Swallow it, Asia."
Asia did as she was told and gulped the remaining semen down her throat, and she finished drinking it, and then, her master said to her, "Stand up."
She did as she was told and stood up, and her master told her, "Now, turn around and face away from me. Spread your legs and bend over a bit, too, so I can have a nice view of your pussy. I'll have a better view of it when I take your virginity."
"Y-Yes, Master," Asia nodded as she turned around and spread her legs, her back facing him, and she bent over a bit, sticking her ass and her pussy out, and he looked at her ass, seeing how plump and big her ass was.
"Nice," he said, "You've got a nice, round, plump, and big ass, Asia."
"Thank you, Master," Asia blushed, feeling happy about the compliment.
"You're welcome," he smiled at her, and he held onto her hips and said, "Now, stay like that, and get ready."
"Okay, Master," Asia nodded and said, "I'm ready."
"Good," he smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'll be gentle when I take your virginity and have sex with you, okay? It might hurt a bit, but it won't hurt as much since you're getting wet from arousal and you've given me a blowjob, which would have loosened up your vaginal walls and the hymen in your pussy, so you'll be fine. Now, here I go."
Asia nodded and closed her eyes and held her breath, and her master inserted his dick into her vagina, breaking through her hymen, and he pushed his dick deeper and deeper into her, and he had to stop for a moment because the young blonde-haired girl started squirming and screaming and whimpering and moaning and crying a bit, and she was feeling intense pain.
"Are you alright, Asia?" her master asked her.
"I-I'm sorry, I-I'm just..." Asia tried to speak through her sobs and sniffles, "I'm just...It's just that it's my first time...I-I didn't know it would hurt this much."
"I know, it's alright," he told her as he rubbed her back to comfort her, "It's fine. It's normal. It's your first time, so it's going to hurt, especially since you're a virgin. But the pain will fade away, I promise, so you'll be fine. Just...try to relax, okay?"
"I-I'll try..." Asia nodded, "Thank you for being patient with me, Master."
"You're welcome," he nodded.
The young, blonde-haired, and green-eyed girl then took a deep breath and said, "Okay, Master. Y-You can keep going. I-I'm ready. You can do it. P-Please, make me feel good. P-Please, take my virginity and fuck me."
"Alright," he nodded.
Her master then grabbed onto her hips and resumed penetrating her pussy, and he continued pushing and inserting his dick into her vagina, and her pussy was getting wetter and loosening up more, and the pain was beginning to fade away, and it was soon replaced by pleasure.
"Ahh...Ahhh...Aaaaaaaahhh," Asia moaned as she felt the pleasure of having sex for the first time and the pleasure of losing her virginity, and the more her master kept going, the more pleasure she was feeling, and the more pain she was feeling faded away, and the more her pussy became loosened and wet, and the more she was enjoying her master's dick penetrating and penetrating her vagina, and it was making her moan, cry, and scream in pleasure.
"Oh, God," Asia moaned and gasped, her tongue hanging out, her eyes rolling back in pleasure, and her body shuddering as she felt her master's dick going deep inside her and penetrating her pussy and vagina, and his dick was rubbing and grinding against her G-spot, causing her to moan and scream and cry in pleasure even more.
"Ah, that's it," her master groaned and grunted as he held her hips tightly and thrust into her, her pussy getting wetter and loosening up even more, and her pussy was squeezing and tightening around his dick, and her body was shaking, her breasts were bouncing, and her ass was clapping and smacking against his body as he thrust into her and had his way with her.
"Aaaah! Aaaaaaah!" Asia cried and screamed in pleasure, and she was feeling the best pleasure she had ever felt, it was overwhelming, addicting, and intense, and she didn't want him to stop.
As her master kept thrusting his dick into her pussy, Asia could feel herself and her mind slowly becoming corrupted thanks to the sex slave tattoo on her stomach that was placed by the Black Bloody Rose Peerage before she was sold and would soon be permanently engraved if he came and released his semen inside her pussy. However, at this point, the former priestess didn't care anymore as, now that she's no longer a virgin and is experiencing sex for the very first time even as a sex slave, Asia wanted to be permanently his sex slave and to serve him forever. She was enjoying the pleasure of losing her virginity and the pleasure of having her pussy stretched out, and she was getting used to the pleasure of being fucked and having sex, and she was starting to crave it.
"I think I'm falling in love," Asia thought as her master kept having his way with her, thrusting his dick back and forth into her pussy and making her moan in pleasure, "I'm falling in love with him! This feels so good, and the sex slave tattoo on my stomach is starting to corrupt and enslave me! I'm falling in love with him! He's such a nice, kind, and wonderful man, and he saved me! And now, I'm his sex slave! And I want to stay his sex slave, I want him to keep having his way with me and fuck me, and I want him to keep taking me! I'm not a virgin anymore! I lost my virginity to him! And now, I'm his, and his alone, his personal sex slave, his bitch, and his whore! Ah, I don't care what happens to me anymore! I don't even care if the sex slave tattoo on my stomach magically becomes permanent if he cums inside me, and I become a permanent sex slave! So, please, Master, keep fucking me, keep having your way with me! Please, have sex with me forever and ever! I love you, Master! I love you! Make me YOURS!"
As her master kept thrusting his dick into her pussy, the pleasure began overwhelming Asia, and she couldn't control herself anymore. She started crying and screaming in pleasure, and then she began begging him to give her the pleasure of having his semen released into her womb.
"MASTER!" Asia screamed and moaned, "MASTER! FUCK ME, FUCK ME HARDER, MASTER! AAAAH! AAAAAHHH! AAAAAAHH! YES, MASTER, YES, KEEP GOING, PLEASE, MAKE ME CUM, MAKE ME CUM FROM YOUR BIG DICK, MAKE ME CUM, PLEASE, PLEASE, AAAHHH! I'M SO CLOSE, MASTER, AAAAAH, YES, I'M SO CLOSE TO CUMMING! I'M CUMMING!!!"
"Ah, I'm cumming, too, Asia!" her master groaned as he went faster and harder, "I'm gonna cum inside you and mark you as mine! I'll make you pregnant with my semen, Asia!"
"AH, YES, YES, DO IT!!!" Asia moaned and screamed, "DO IT, MASTER, CUM INSIDE ME AND MAKE ME YOURS, PLEASE, MAKE ME PREGNANT, GET ME PREGNANT WITH YOUR BABY, AAAHHH! MAKE ME PREGNANT, PLEASE!!!"
"You're mine, Asia, you're mine!" her master growled as he thrust harder and faster, and soon enough, the two had reached their climax.
"YES, I'M YOURS, MASTER, I'M YOURS, I'M--AAHHH, I'M CUMMING!!! I'M CUUUUUMMMMMMMMMMMMMMIIIIIIINNNNNNGGGG!!!"
"AH, HERE I COME, ASIA, HERE I COME!!!!"
Her master pushed his dick deep inside her and held her body tightly as his semen rushed into her womb and began filling it up and making her grow full.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!" Asia screamed as she cried, her eyes rolled back and her tongue sticking out as she felt his warm and sticky semen flooding her womb, making it grow full, and triggering her orgasm, and the pleasure was overwhelming, and she couldn't take it, and she collapsed to the floor, her body trembling and shuddering as she had a mind-blowing orgasm, while her master stayed inside her, holding onto her and thrusting his dick into her to let her ride out her orgasm.
Asia was a panting, blushing, and sweaty mess, her mind fuzzy and blank, and she was still twitching a bit. Her master pulled out of her, and some of his semen dripped out of her pussy, but the majority of it remained inside her. He could see that her womb was bulging and bloating, and then, the sex slave tattoo on her stomach glowed and became permanent, and Asia was officially his personal sex slave.
"There, now the sex slave tattoo on your stomach has become permanent," he said to the young, blonde-haired girl, who had a dazed look on her face.
"Master," Asia said weakly, her mind fuzzy and hazy, and her body still trembling, "Please, Master, can we...have sex again? Please?"
"Of course," he nodded, "We can have sex as many times as you want, baby. But first, let's eat, alright? Then after that, we'll have as much sex as you want."
"Y-Yes..." Asia nodded as she slowly got up, "Then let me try to cook something for you, Master."
Meanwhile, back with Rias at the Black Bloody Rose Peerage's base of operations, Shalgana, the leader of said Peerage, continued to fuck and rape his sex slave and cumming inside her pussy within each round, her mind slowly breaking and becoming corrupted thanks to the permanently engraved sex slave tattoo on her stomach which would eventually turn her into a permanent sex slave and his bitch, and the young and beautiful red-haired devil was starting to get used to being raped and fucked, and she was getting used to the feeling of the pleasure of having sex, as well.
"That's it, Rias, take it," Shalgana grinned as he thrust into her while he was fucking her on all fours like a dog and a bitch in heat, "That's it, just like that. You're such a good girl, aren't you, Rias? Such a good and obedient sex slave, a bitch."
"Ah, ahh, aaaaah, aaaaaaahhhh," Rias moaned and whimpered, her breasts bouncing and her ass clapping as she was being raped and fucked, her mind getting broken and being corrupted, and she was starting to get used to the pleasure of getting raped and having her pussy pounded after having her hymen torn, and the more the sex slave tattoo on her stomach kept burning, engraving, and engraving itself into her skin and into her soul and psyche, the more Rias started to enjoy the feeling of being raped, the more the pleasure started to feel good, and the more she started to crave more.
"Y-Yes," Rias whimpered and nodded, her tongue hanging out and her mind fuzzing and hazing, "Y-Yes, I-I'm a good and obedient sex slave, a bitch, Master. I'm a good and obedient bitch, Master. I-I'm a good and obedient bitch."
"Hahaha, what happened to all the backtalk earlier, huh?!" Shalgana laughed, "You said you were gonna overcome and escape from this and avenge your friends and family, and that Issei kid we erased from the world before you could have a chance to reincarnate him as a devil! You said you were gonna make me bring this upon myself! What happened to all that, huh?!"
"I-I'm sorry, Master," Rias whimpered and nodded, "I'm so sorry, Master. I-I was wrong, Master. I shouldn't have talked back, Master. I-I won't do it again, Master. I-I'll be good, Master, I-I'll be a good and obedient bitch, Master. I'll let you have your way with me, Master. I'll let you rape and fuck me, Master, and I'll do anything you say, Master, just please forgive me, Master."
"So, does that mean you've submitted to me, to the leader of the Black Bloody Rose Peerage?!" Shalgana grinned wickedly before pounding her pussy harder, "Go on, say it! Say that you've submitted to me! SAY IT!!!"
"I-I've submitted, Master," Rias nodded, "I've submitted. I-I'm yours, Master, your personal and loyal sex slave, Master. Y-You own me, M-Master, y-you own me. AAAAAAHHH!!!!"
Shalgana was now fucking her even faster and harder, and Rias couldn't think anymore, she couldn't focus, she could barely think straight, and all she could think about was how good it felt to be raped, to have her pussy pounded, and the more she was thinking about it, the more pleasure she was feeling.
"Aaaah, aaah, aaaaaaah, aaaah, aaaaaah," Rias moaned and cried as she was feeling intense pleasure and her mind was being broken and becoming corrupted.
"That's it, take it," Shalgana growled as he was getting closer and closer to the brink of his orgasm, and the pleasure was beginning to overwhelm Rias, too, as the young devil felt her body getting overwhelmed and her mind was becoming completely blank.
"Cum inside me, Master!" Rias begged with moans, "I don't care what happens to me anymore, just please, cum inside me, Master! Please, give me your cum, Master! Give it to me, please! Make me yours, Master! Make me your permanent and loyal sex slave, please, give me your semen, Master, please!"
"With pleasure," Shalgana smiled, and then, he held onto her hips and gave her pussy a few more fast and hard thrusts before shoving his dick deep into her and releasing his hot and sticky semen, shooting it into her womb, making her cum and squirt her juices out of her pussy as the young devil experienced a mind-blowing orgasm as her body trembled, her legs were shaking, and her eyes were rolling back in pleasure as she experienced the overwhelming pleasure of having his cum rush into her womb and her womb was now full and her stomach was bloating and her pussy was full and leaking out his semen.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!" Rias cried and shrieked in pleasure, her pussy being filled with his cum and her womb was full, her sex slave tattoo on her stomach became permanent after resisting as much as she could until the end, and her mind was completely broken. She was no longer a virgin, and she was no longer a proper devil but was now a sex slave and a bitch.
Rias collapsed to the ground, her body twitching and trembling, and she was a panting, blushing, and sweating mess.
"That's it, Rias," Shalgana chuckled as he pulled out of her, her pussy and her body dripping and leaking his semen, and the young and beautiful devil was panting, her tongue was hanging out, and she was moaning and crying in pleasure, and her pussy was full of his cum and her womb was full of his cum.
Then, the leader of the Black Bloody Rose Peerage grabbed and pulled her up by her long red hair and said, "You've finally fallen to me, your master. And all of your old Peerage have fallen to their masters, and soon, many more women of both the human world and the supernatural world will fall by my hands and the hands of the Black Bloody Rose Peerage. Men like us will conquer and rule both worlds, and all women will become nothing more than sex slaves who will do nothing but serve us men until their deaths. I, Shalgana Blackblood, shall rule both worlds as king, and all women of my taste such as you Rias will be mine." He then smirked at the mind-broken pure-blooded devil and said, "And Rias Gremory, after I take in both your mother, Venelana Gremory, and sister-in-law, Grayfia Lucifuge, to become a part of my harem of sex slaves, I want you to join me, to help me conquer and rule both worlds, not just as my obedient sex slave who will do as I command you to do, but as the Queen of my Peerage. So, will you help me?" When he was met with no response, he pulled on her hair a little harder and demanded, "Answer me, Rias. Will you help me?"
"Yes, Master," Rias answered with a smile on her face and her eyes wide and dazed, "I will. I, Rias Gremory, former heiress of the fallen Gremory Clan and sex slave, will help you, Master Shalgana Blackblood. I'll do whatever you ask of me, Master, my king. I'll become the Queen of the Black Bloody Rose Peerage. I'll even marry and bear children with you. You can breed me, and I'll make sure that I'll get pregnant with your child, and that our child will inherit my Sacred Gear and the power of destruction. So, please, my king, let me serve you, let me have sex with you, and let me give you the pleasure of breeding me, and I'll bear many children for you, children who will inherit my power, the power of destruction."
"Good girl," Shalgana smiled as he petted her head before he placed his hands on his hips and ordered, "Now, kiss my hard dick. Show me your declaration of your new loyalty to your master, and the Black Bloody Rose Peerage!"
"Yes, my king," Rias nodded obediently, "Yes, Master."
Rias then moved her head forward before she then kissed the tip of his hard dick, showing and expressing her newfound loyalty to him and the Black Bloody Rose Peerage. She began sucking him off, giving him a blowjob, and it wasn't long before she was swallowing his whole dick into her mouth and deep-throating him.
"Aaah, that's it," Shalgana moaned and groaned in pleasure as he petted and stroked her hair, "That's it, Rias. Just like that. Keep going. Swallow and drink my dick, baby."
"Mmm, mmm, mmm," Rias hummed and moaned, her voice muffled as her master's dick was deep in her mouth and in her throat, and she began to suck and bob her head back and forth faster and harder, and soon enough, Shalgana had reached his climax.
"I'm cumming, Rias," he smirked, "Drink it all, Rias, drink my semen and make sure you get it all because I'm gonna fuck your pussy again, and I'll make sure I get you pregnant with my kid." He then looked out the window with a smirk and said, "The worlds better be ready for us Black Bllody Rose Peerage when we begin conquering both worlds. Rias, be ready to conquer everything with me. This will be the beginning of the end for both the human world and the supernatural world."
As Shalgana held her head in place and released his semen deep into her mouth, Rias could only drink and swallow his cum, the thought of him raping and having his way with her, and the thought of her falling pregnant and giving birth to his child, a child who would have her Sacred Gear and the power of destruction, excited her and caused her pussy to get wet. She then pulled out before she swallowed up all of his remaining semen before she smiled at him with a lewd smile and said, without even caring about what would happen to both the worlds that he and the Peerage would soon conquer and rule over, "Yes, my Master."
The (Bad) End.
Epilogue:
Shalgana and his Black Bloody Rose Peerage were able to conquer the worlds of both the humans and the supernatural, and he was now the king of the worlds and everyone who had a sex slave tattoo or was a sex slave was serving him.
He made a new world order, and anyone who wasn't his or his men's sex slaves or part of their group was being killed and executed, and the Black Bloody Rose Peerage was able to take away their women, whether they were human, supernatural, or even alien.
And soon, many women and girls of the new world that was being ruled and controlled by Shalgana and the Black Bloody Rose Peerage began serving his and his men's dicks and balls, and they all became their sex slaves.
It was the (Bad) End.
