    Having escaped from outer space, Bedlam returns his duty of riding earths from eight families of evil. Knowing that a certain demon searches for a ultimate weapon, Bedlam travels back in time and locks himself into one of Egyptian tombs, but before that he spread the news that a weapon can be found in said tomb. When the demon opens the casket in hopes to get the weapon, finds Bedlam waiting for him. Bedlam then used chaos talisman to absorb the demon's soul. Fighting the remaining demon minions, Bedlam meets Carnelian a demon who turned against her family and joined the hunt of supernaturals. Bedlam and Carnelian fought weeks side by side, they even shared some intimate moments. Bedlam's job was done on such a pace that all the evil started to leave its mark on him. One time Bedlam ran into himself on one mission, and he had a plan. He asked the old self to spy on Carnelian. It turned out that Carnelian planed turning Bedlam evil from beginning and Bedlam knew that as he already was in this time. Bedlam killed Carnelian, and then the both Bedlams went in the time they should be.

    Next job was to pay back to a creature he once met. Going to some masked ball, he found Bad Kitty wearing possessed dress. He secretly started to unravel the dress to brake the spell; spell broken, the real demon showed his face. Bad Kitty having fought the supernatural for a while, did all the demon slaying. But in the end if it wasn't for Bedlam, Bad Kitty would have been killed. Saying that he owed Lucky (Bad Kitty's cat) big time, it was the right place to be. They both went their separate ways.
