Dimension Prison

"Niklaus?!" Kai and Louis said in unison.

"Don't look so surprised. The whole school is searching for lord Darien's son" Niklaus said.

"Point taken" Louis then turned back to the door and all three boys entered.

Upon entering they came face to face with Lincoln.

"Why are you here?" Lincoln was fully planning on letting them bleed to death from the inside out but when he saw their uniforms he stopped. Those uniforms were identical to the one his young master was wearing.

"We're searching for someone, his name is Riley" Niklaus said.

"What is your business with the young master?" Lincoln asked with glaring eyes.

"Huh? Young master?" Kai looked at him with raised eyebrows.

"We came here to ensure his safety and return him back to school" Niklaus said.

"Do you have the key?" Lincoln asked and the boys all looked at him with puzzled faces.

"What key?" Louis asked.

"How do you expect to leave this dimension prison without the key?" Lincoln asked bewildered.

"Wait what?!" Kai asked with an even more baffled expression.

"So this is a dimension prison… huh" Louis looked around with excitement.

"Well that was unexpected, guess that means we're trapped" Niklaus said nonchalantly.

Lincoln burst into laughter as the demon couldn't hold it back. At first he wasn't sure if he should laugh or be annoyed.

"Where have I heard something similar? Oh yeah, my young master also did the same thing" Lincoln said.

"Who are you?" Kai asked.

"You can call me Lincoln" he replied.

"Where is Riley?" Niklaus asked and Lincoln immediately stopped laughing.

"He has a very high fever, I was trying to cool him down with a cold bath until I sensed your presence" Lincoln become very serious as he turned and headed back to the room where Riley is.

"How could he get a high fever at a time like this?" Kai said.

"It was my fault, I had weakened him and for some reason his body is now going through some sort of change" Lincoln said.

"Change? What do you mean" Niklaus questioned.

"I'm not sure but it's very strange" Lincoln said as he opened the bedroom door and walked in.

"Keep your eyes to yourself, I can't assure your safety if they linger too long" Lincoln said threateningly.

Lincoln opened the door to the bathroom and stepped in and the boys followed. What they saw next was an image that would forever be engraved in their memories.

Riley who was naked and unconscious in the bathtub with water running down his chest and a small towel on his forehead looked nothing less than majestic.

As if bewitched Kai, Niklaus and Louis walked towards the beauty in the bathtub. Before they could reach out to touch him Lincoln appeared in front of them with lightening speed.

"Your dead" Lincoln said with darkened eyes.

Snapping out of the trance they were under they looked at Lincoln finally understanding what he meant before.

"Okay just calm down and lets be reasonable about this" Niklaus said to a fuming demon.

"Who wouldn't be hot and bothered just looking at such a seductive sight" Louis said not even the least bit embarrassed.

Kai was blushing fifty shades of red as he tried looking literally anywhere else.

"I'm going to enjoy hearing you scream as I rip your heart out" Lincoln glared at Louis who was still shamelessly looking at Riley.

Niklaus was about to say something when his sensitive ears picked up on the unstableness of Riley's breathing.

"Both of you shut up and listen" Niklaus said as he went closer to Riley. "His breathing is erratic," he hovers over Riley and removes the towel from his forehead. He presses his head to his and uses his index and middle finger to press against his neck. "His temperature is really high, he's burning up."

Hearing this all the boys simultaneously gathered around Riley.

"We need to get his temperature down now, Louis make small ice cubes and drop them in the water. Don't stop until the whole tub is filled with it" Niklaus ordered and Louis did as he was instructed.

With his ice magic ability it didn't take long for him to fill the bathtub with small cubic ice, but once he did Riley started shaking uncontrollably.

"Help me to hold him down!" Niklaus said. Kai hugged his shoulders from behind and kept his head in place. Lincoln held unto his legs and Niklaus held unto his arms. Louis focused on refilling the bathtub with ice as the ones before kept melting at an abnormal rate.

Riley soon starts screaming from the extreme agony his body is under. This continued for quite some time. Soon after, Riley finally stopped screaming and shaking, his temperature also went down. None of the boys moved from their positions around Riley.

Kai buried his head in the crook of Riley's neck and inhaled his sweet scent which seems to calm Kai greatly.

Niklaus and Lincoln kept a close eye on him while Louis drew small comforting circles with his index finger on his body, liking the feel of his smooth skin.

"We should get him out of the bath now, get a towel" Niklaus said as he lifted Riley in his arms and Lincoln handed him a towel. After drying Riley's hair and body he placed him on the bed and with another towel he securely wrapped it around his waist.

Once again they gathered at Riley's side and soon they fell into a comfortable sleep.

Back at DarkFall…

Darien and Kerr were in Vincent's office as they listened to the update on the search for Riley.

"So to sum it all up, you found nothing. Is that what your telling me?" Vincent asked the terrified looking demon before him.

"Y-yes sir" the demon answered.

"Get out" Vincent said and the demon didn't need to be told twice.

The silence that filled the room was broken when a sudden quake shook the building. Glass shattered and the floor cracked open.

"That was not normal" Kerr said.

"Just what I need, another abnormal situation to report on" Vincent said with sarcasm dripping from his words.

"What could've caused such a big quake?" Darien asked as he looked at the state of the office.

"Demon lords!" A frantic demon barged into the office.

"What now?" Vincent asked.

"Sir there have been multiple reports of small cracks in space and portals opening up. Students are in a panic and demons that were documented to have been in the dimension prisons are all coming from those portals and causing a ruckus" the demon said.

"Inform all members of staff that they are to report back to their assigned classes immediately. Protect the students and restrain those troublesome demons. Find my sons and Niklaus they could be of help gathering their fellow classmates into their respective classes" Vincent said.

"Darien, Kerr we need to close those portals now" Vincent was about to leave when the Demon gave another report.

"S-sir the thing is with regards to the class representatives. The whereabouts of Kai, Louis and Niklaus are unknown"

Vincent stopped in his tracks, turned and came back.

"What exactly did you just say?" Vincent asked with a deceptively calm voice.
