Chapter One: The demon princess

A man is seen running through a dark forest. The man stops to catch his breath and then continues running while he looks back at intervals to make sure no one was following him. He gets to an oak tree and stops in front of the tree. He brings out a dagger and goes down on his knees. He uses the dagger to cut his palm and blood flows out. He starts an incantation.

"Ispas de imala ni voka aspas reva ni amor ve ka", he incanted as the blood dropping flows towards the oak tree. Once it reached the root of the oak tree there was a bright flash and a force sent him flying towards the tree as he hits his back hard on the tree.

A man walks towards him whistling. He's wearing a black cloak on black combat boots. His face is covered by the darkness.

"Why are you running away your unholy eminence?", he asked slowly walking towards the man at the tree.

The man on the ground in front of the tree manages to get up and he looks terrified.

"What are you doing here my lord?", the man asked as the other man smirks.

"That's some nerve you've got asking me that question. I made you my personal adviser and I ended up losing to the witches".

"It was his will and not mine".

"So, you've been doing the will of my father?"

"I work for him".

"He didn't want me to get rid of his lover and that bastard he calls a son, right?"

"Axel is your younger brother. Why do you want him dead so bad?"

"He was born of a witch!"

"He's still your brother".

"The demon world doesn't need him around".

"You are going down a dangerous road my lord".

"Since you are all knowing, I'm sure you know how to get rid of the witches".

"I can't tell you that my lord".

"You don't have much of a choice. My father will be dead in a week and after that there will be no one to support you. And I can still get rid of Axel without you".

"My lord you can't do that".

"Tell me what I want to hear".

"You need a child from an arcane demon".

"Why an arcane demon?"

"They're the only ones who can kill the witches. You need a child of an arcane demon who will also have your blood".

"How am I supposed to get a child of my blood and that of an arcane demon?"

"The only way possible. You have to sleep with an arcane demon".

"Isn't there another way?"

"There's no other way my lord".

"Well thanks for the wisdom. I'll make sure it doesn't go unrewarded".

"Does that mean I get to live?", the man asked as the man in the cloak smirks and then turns his back on him. Blood starts to flow out from his neck and in seconds his head is seen on the floor and his body standing straight without a head and blood spewing.

"Your reward is you dying a simple and painless death", the man in cloak said as he disappears into thin air and the other man's body drops down on the ground.

Unknown Pov:

You Know that saying kill your enemies with kindness, yeah that doesn't really work out well where I'm from. Where I'm from we kill our enemies with knives, daggers, spells, powers or anything dark and pointy. Just to put it plainly we actually do kill our enemies.

Growing up I was taught different ways to end a life because I had to be ruthless being the crowned princess of the middle chamber of hell- yes, I'm a demon.

Hell is divided into three parts which are the lower chamber, the middle chamber and the upper chamber. The upper chamber has the strongest ranks of demons, and the lower chamber has the least strong ranks of demons.

I'm not only a demon though. I'm also a superhuman and that's thanks to my dad. The human world consists of the superhumans and the Non superhumans. My dad happens to be the leader of the super villains in the human world. I'm sure you're probably wondering why a demon had a child with a superhuman. Well, I have no idea but all I know is they had to do what they did. This year I'm going clock eighteen and become the new queen of the middle chamber of hell but to do that I need my powers and a fiancé. I got the second already but the first is proving to be a pain. I'm seventeen and I haven't activated my powers yet and because of that my mom made me go to villain school at twelve and now I'm going to normal people school because my mom thinks I'm not fit to be queen. I have until my birthday this year to activate my powers, or I'll lose the throne to my younger sister. Normal people's school may not be that bad. Maybe I can finally activate my powers. I'm really confident about it and besides nothing bad can happen. Like what could possibly go wrong?

At a glass house which belongs to the Mendes family in the dining area, a young woman is seen arranging the table for breakfast. She is tall and slender with curves in all the right places. She has a light glowing skin and long blonde hair with a pair of beautiful emerald green eyes.

"Alan come down right now!!!".

"Mom for the last time I'm coming", a voice responded.

"Well hurry up. You don't want to be late for your first day of school", she said as a young boy walks in.

He had jet black hair that was a little ruffled up, but it suits him. He then had ice blue crystal eyes that one could get lost in. His high cheekbones, symmetrical face and perfect body like that of an athlete could put a lot of models to shame. He's wearing a pair of black contact lenses and his uniform. He's wearing a white long-sleeved shirt covered by a navy-blue blazer on a khaki trouser with black socks and white sneakers. he's also wearing a knotted navy with white polka dots tie.

"I do", he muttered.

"Did you say something?"

"Not at all", he replied with a smile.

"You look so cute", she said stretching his cheeks.

"I'm no longer a baby mom", he said as he removes her hands from his cheeks. "These glasses make me look dumb", he added.

"You've never looked better".

"For a superhero you sure do lie a lot".

"Sit down and have your breakfast".

"Who cooked?", he asked as he sits on one of the grey dining chairs.

"I did", she replied.

"You're kidding right?"

"What's that supposed to mean?"

"Nothing".

"Alan".

"I mean this in the nicest way mom I think you should stick to being a superhero. Cooking isn't one of your best strengths".

"And what's that supposed to mean?"

"It means you suck at cooking".

"That's some nerve you've got Alan".

"I'm cooking dinner so don't worry about making it back home early", he said as he gets up from the chair and gives her a kiss to the cheek.

"Are you trying to bribe your way out of this?"

"I'll see you when I get back home", he said as he walks out leaving his mom stunned.

"What was I actually thinking making breakfast for that egoist?", she thought as she takes a sit.
