"so your a Hellborn?" The young half Nymph half Demon asked curiously, standing almost as tall as his mother despite his young age. The young creature, Solaris as his mother called him, was a little more like Alikais father then Alikai himself, for starters, Solaris had a tail. Only second generation Demons had tails, Alikai was third generation Demon so the only thing he inheritance was his black skin and scales. He might inherit more as he got older but since he was so young no one could really tell what he could inherit from his parents.
"Yeah, as far as I know... I don't know how I left Hell though... or how I got here... wherever here is..." Alikai shivered a bit as he gazed outside into the inky blackness. His attention was drawn back to those in the room with him when a hot, yellow scaled wing draped over his shoulders, he looked up at the young half Demon who gave him a grin.
"Don't worry Ali, Ill keep you nice and warm, you don't wanna get sick, trust me. it sucks." Solaris laughed playfully and he ruffled the red heads hair. Alikai let out a small whine and covered his head with his arms, his scalp quite sensitive to forgin touch due to the horns soon to poke their way through the thin layer of skin and scales that covered the tiny nubs of bone.
"Solar stop that, he doesn't like it." the young Demons mother scolded lightly, frowning at her son wh was about to playfully continue rubbing the others head. Solaris quickly let his arm drop to his side.
"Okay mom, sorry Ali..." the young Demon looked at the floor, a little saddened that he had been scolded. He quickly got over it however when he noticed that the smaller Demon was looking at him with a curious expression. "Hello." Solar grinned at the young Demon under his wing, having been caught staring Alikai pouted and looked outside. The cute reaction caused Solar's mother to laugh and the giggles soon spread to both boys.
As the three giggled inside the walls of the white stone walls of the house a dark shadow started to creep closer, it paused outside on the rim of a crater. The darkness turned from shadow to solid mass, large sharp claws dug into the rock dust covering the ground, it even scarred the solid rock under the thick layer of soft ground. The creature was huge, almost 13 feet tall, its skin was the darkest of silvers with streaks of black criss crossing the heavily scarred body of the Demon like entity. The creature was very Demon like, it had long sharp horns and bat like wings with sharp claws, it also had the typical body of a Demon. But something about the creature was... twisted... shattered... Most Demons were peaceful, using their powers to shape the world and bring life to it. However there were a few Demons that, due to their unending lives, slowly turned from good natured beings to the opposite, their souls turned dark and their minds became twisted until eventually; the Demon went insane.
The Demons cracked eyes took in the area, the barest hint of a trail becoming visible to the deranged creature. Taking in a deep breath the Hellborn Demon blew away a thin layer of dust that had settled over something recently, after another breath of air caused the sand to go airborn something was finally revealed, a single black scale. The sight of it brought the twisted Demon to anger, this scale belonged to an enemy, the very same enemy that had banished the twisted Demon from Hell. A smeared droplet of now frozen blood stained the back of the scale, this brought an almost evil smile to the deranged Demons face.
He is hurt... Hunting him will be much easier with him weakened ".. I will kill you... Tempest...."
Dropping the lost scale into the sand again the twisted Demon turned to shadow once again, a creepy evil laugh echoing through the vast darkness.
