Chapter 13 In the demon realm. In the Eastern Lands. In a castle that stood behind a steep hill. Demons slaved away. Building things they didn't wanna build. Doing things they didn't wanna do "Mi'lord....your meal.." a servant said handing his master a plate that consisted of demons brains and the intestines of some unknown animal. "MMmmm...thank you." the master said as he began to chow down without restraint "Mi'lord.....if I may have a moment of your time, I have the report from your most recent trade deals.:" a female demon said as she came from the shadows. "Yes....thank you. Just hold off on that for a minute.." he said as he continued to stuff his face full of food "MI'LORD!!! MI'LORD!!!! BAD NEWS!!!!" someone said as they came running into the main room "Holy hell!!! Can't a guy finish eating his meal WITHOUT interruptions!!?" the lord of the castle said slamming his food to the ground in a rage "Forgive me lord Roswell but I have urgent news that just could not wait." the lesser demon said as he bowed to one knee "Report." Roswell said as he licked his fingers enjoying the sweet taste of his now ruined dinner Roswell stood as a towering 6'8 and was pure muscle. His thick pale blue skin looked as if nothing could penetrate it and to top it off, the horns that stood out of his head was like those of a bull's. All feared and respected him. Roswell stood there, glaring at his servant as he massaged his beard, pondering. "(How dare this....this unworthy piece of trash interrupt me...ME while I eat my dinner....I don't care WHAT the news is...he dead.....)" Roswell pondered as his raised his mighty hand for a killing blow "My lord, hes been spotted. Hes returned." the demon said "He?" Roswell repeated "Yes. Lord Nara. After 500 years..hes been found and thats not all...Lord Shin, Ta, and Sessaru have also been rumored to have returned as well." he informed "What! Hmm....is there any proof of this??" Roswell said as he sat back down forgetting all about the thought of killing this vermin "No but I have sent out 7 scouts to survey the area in which they have supposedly been spotted. My apologizes for doing this without your permission my lord." he said bowing further down "Its fine. Good work. Now Sephile...about your report." Roswell said turning to the young female demon who stood against the wall waiting patiently for permission to give her report "Yes mi'lord. (looks at paper) The current status of the humans to which you have to research the current "thing" you asked them to look into reports that they will need more money for the materials." she said Roswell yawns "Fine...be sure to ask those.....what are they called....government officials that I said to up the resource money to those scientists. Its important that they finish with that project. (she makes a note of it) "Hmmm.....Nara......(laughs to himself) I wonder.......have to really returned...." Roswell said as he crushed the armrest of the chair he sat in with little effort ______________________________________________________________ (Nara sneezes) "Thats disgusting!" Amelia said as her, Nara, Ta, Ashen and Steven walked down the street on a sunny Saturday afternoon. "Excuse me..hmm....its this air....I'm still not quite accustom to this....atmosphere....sort to say.." Nara said In the back of the group, Steven was dragging his feet. His life had took a complete and total turn. Flipped upside down. Inside out. Steven was down and depressed and he looked as if he were at the end of his rope. Amelia turned to him. "Hey....whats wrong Steven?" she asked "How! How can you be alright with this!!" Steven said "Alright with what?" she asked "Never....like Ashen, I never believed in all this talk about demons or what not.....in mythology, we started talking about these demons that came to our realm, saved us, and all that shit. You know...just bull.....and now....here in front of me..I have Nara..(points to Nara) Ta...(points to Ta) and inside my best friend is Sessaru...(Points to Ashen)! How can you just accept this! They are demons!! They could just kill us without a second thought!" Steven snapped "But they haven't now have they." Amelia said Steven grows quiet "Don't get me wrong, I am still scared to death about the whole thing but don't you think its best for us to be around them than some other demon?" Amelia said "You have a point..." Steven said "But....." he added ?????? "WHAT THE HELL IS HE WEARING??? Its the beginning of spring and this gut is wearing a trench coat and a wide brimmed fedora hat! Everyone is gonna think we are a suspicious bunch." Steven said Everyone turned to Nara. "Hmm.....I suppose I do look a little out of the ordinary for this sort of weather but......(opens his trench coat revealing tribal markings that were on his chest and up along the rib cage) I think this would be even more suspicious...." Nara said Steven and Amelia looked in awe. "Also.....(takes of his hat and revealed the small horns that were sticking out of his head) I don't think this look is "in"....do you..." Nara said as he put his hat back on and closed the trench coat "You have a point....but why show us this??" Amelia asked "You two....You in particular Ms. Amelia, have looked after my two subordinates here and kept their secrets to yourself and for that...I thank you..." Nara said kissing her hand. Amelia's face turned a deep red. "Who the hell are you calling a subordinate...." Ta and Sessaru said at once "Oh...guys....you heard that??" Nara said "You........you......you scum.....how dare you touch her...." Steven said "Oh my.....you too? I was just kidding..." Nara said Everyone attacks Nara "WELL IT WAS IN POOR TASTE!!" They said leaving Nara a broken heap parts on the ground After a couple of minutes, Nara got himself together from the attack. "What the hell is wrong with you all!! It was a joke!!" he said "......." Sessaru said "......lets keep walking." Ta said The group continued walking. Sessaru occassionally looked to his left and right then scratched his ear "I see....we're being followed....how many." Nara asked "7....no..6...no...what....!" Sessaru said "What is it?" Nara asked "Whoever is following us is being taken out one by one." Ta said "That must be...." Nara said "I'm going to check it out!" Sessaru said and rushed off. "I'll go too!" Ta said but Nara grabbed hold of him before he could "Leave him be." Nara said with a smile on his face Sessaru rushed through the bushes and leaped into the trees at blinding speeds "(Whats the problem?)" Ashen asked "(Like you heard, someone is killing off the ones following us and I wanna know who!)" Sessaru said Sessaru leaped far and as he was in the air, all he saw was a playground and a small child playing in the sandbox. Sessaru landed hard beside the sandbox, sliding a ways til he came to a stop. "(Hmmm.....your body seems to be adjusting just fine. Usually a leg would break from that height.)" Sessaru said Ashen laughed at the compliment Sessaru looked around and saw no signs of anyone following them "What in the hell?" Sessaru said Sessaru continue to look around and could sense nothing. Sessaru glanced at the kid in the sandbox. The boy was playing with a toy truck. Seemed to be having fun "Man.....this sucks..." Sessaru said bending down to look at the kid "You haven't seen any suspicious looking people around here have you?" Sessaru asked (Kid points to him) (Ashen laughs) Sessaru sighs "And how exactly do you find me suspicious?" "You came flying out of nowhere. and you landed without even breaking a leg." the kid said "I know.....wasn't I cool." Sessaru said "No. Not really." the kid said going back to playing with his toy (Ashen laughs harder) Sessaru gets up "Ah...what would a snot nose kid like you know anyway? Go back to your mom kid." Sessaru said as he walked off. As Sessaru walked off, something flew past him a high speeds knocking down 3 trees in front of him _____________________________________________________________ "What the??! What was that noise?" Ta said Nara laughs "Just let it be." Nara said _____________________________________________________________ "Oh my.....Now correct me if I'm wrong but.....the last time I checked, little boys don't throw things at their elders." Sessaru said as he turned around to see the little boy standing there "Damn it....I didn't mean to throw it that hard....." he said "Hmm....so you were one of the ones following us. Why?" Sessaru asked "(What?! He thinks I was one of the ones following them? Damn..)" He said to himself "I wasn't the one following you." he said "First you try to kill me. Now yopu lie to me.....man......I HATE kids......" Sessaru said as his demonic aura rises. "(Just great....first a bunch of scouts....now this...) Alright! I suppose I could play with you for a while but only for a little bit. I gotta get back to my mommy....remember?" the kid said with a smile Sessaru smiles maliciously "(Hey!! Don't you even think about it....thats just a kid!!" Ashen said "(If you interrupt me one more time, I will personally trash this body!! Don't you think for once that this is JUST a kid. Since when do kids knock down trees with ease?! None that I know of. Now shut up and let me work!!" Sessaru said
