Chapter 1 Part1

Once upon a time the humans roamed the earth. After years of peace the demons from the underground came to earth.

"We have a proposition for you. If you can turn this entire earth's land into beautiful green forests and fields in 10 years, we will leave you all alone. But fail to do so, and you all will have to do what we say. Refuse this proposal, then we will kill you all." The demon's leader told them.

The humans were scared and accepted their proposal. In the next 10 years the humans worked hard. They went to Antarctica, to the deserts, everywhere. Their children also helped as much as they could.

But sadly after the 10 years the demons returned to a planet that looked mostly the same.

The demons knew this from the start. They knew no human can turn a desert into a forest, neither a frozen piece of land.

The humans asked for mercy from the demons, but the demons didn't believe in mercy. The leader ordered all his followers to capture every single human.

"Have mercy on our children!" the leader of the humans cried. The demon's leader than realized the humans weakness.

He laughed out loud. He ordered his followers to take them all to the biggest prison on earth at the time. Prison Lakewood in Australia.

There they locked all the people up in cells. The leader was proud that he had every single human in one place. But soon he realised that these were only the young adults, adults and old people of the world.

He ordered his followers to bring every single child left on this earth here. Doing as their leader wanted they split up into 7 groups and searched the planet for every single child.

After all the children were together in the prison the demon leader brought forward each child and asked who was this child's parent.

The humans was confused by this act. Why would someone that locked them up, be so nice afterwards?

After every child was reunited with their parents the demon leader ordered a few of his followers to keep an eye on them while he goes to, what is known as the Patient Rooms, on the top floor.

He looked around the room. There were lots of medications and tables in this room. "The humans probably don't know about this room do they?" the leader asked.

Every follower shook their head. This made the leader smile. "Extract one syringe full of the blood of every land mammel on this earth. I would suggest these that can be considered predator and prey."

The demons left the room and did as they were told. Bringing back bags and bags filled with animal blood. The leader told them to set things up in this room, he'll be right back.

The leader went down to the cells. He walked past billions of crying people. Mostly the children. The leader felt sadness for a second but then shook it off.

As he walked past the cells, he noticed that there were a lot of 'weak' people. He knew this would ruin his plan, so he got an idea.

Most of the weak people where the elders. Known by the human society as old people. He ordered the guards to bring every old person to the prison yard.

As they were opening the cells and pulling the old people to the yard, the leader noticed something. An old couple with a young boy no more than one year old.

This little 'family' was the only one that looked like this in the prison. The guards pulled the two old people out of the cell leaving the poor boy alone on the cold floor crying.

He was barely wearing any clothes, making it not long before he dies. The demon's leader promised mercy to the humans children. He walked into the cell and picked up the crying boy.

The boy was shivering and his skin was ice cold. The leader opened his jacket and carefully placed the small frail boy inside.

The boy clutched the demons shirt tightly and stopped crying. The demon leader held him under his jacket keeping him warm.

He then went outside where all the old people were gathered. "Kill them." the leader ordered his guards. He then turned around and went back inside.

The screams of the old people couldn't be heard by the people inside.

After hours of silence the leader decided to check on the little boy in his jacket. Sleeping peacefully, and still clutching tightly onto the demon's shirt.

The leaders heart softened at the sight of the little boy. "Ummm... Sir?" one of the adults spoke. The leader looked at the young man with disgust written on his face. "What you human!" he yelled at him.

The man flinched. "I just wanted to know where the elders are? It's been quite a while since they left." The leader smirked.

"They are being buried now. I couldn't allow this new society to have any weak links. So I ordered my men to kill them." the leader said.

"Then why are you taking care of that child?  Shouldn't you kill him as well? Cause he seems like a 'weak link' to me." a lady spoke up.

Angered, the leader looked at her. "I made a promise, I promised to have mercy on your children. So this little boy shall not be killed or harmed by anyone!" the leader yelled.

After a while a beautiful female demon walked onto the room. "Sir, the room is ready. Shall we start taking people in now, or do we feed them first?" she asked.

The leader looked at her. "We shall feed them first. Then let them rest for a while and then start with the men first. Understood Lidia?"

"Yes sir. I will go tell the others now. Must we seperate the men and the women?" the demon lady named Lidia asked.

"Yes, seperate them and try to get as many as you can in a cell. You should be able to get 5 in each cell. And seperate the children from their mothers too. There should be a kids room on the floor under us." the leader said.

"Alright sir. Will do so, but one question though. The little boy with you... Should we take him downstairs as well?" Lidia asked.

The leader look at her angered. "Noone touches this boy. He's too frail and weak. I won't let him be alone. Never!" the leader yelled.

"Alright sir." Lidia said. She then left the room. After a while a few demons came in wearing chef outfits with bowls of food in their hands. They fed all the women, men and children.

Afterwards they divided the men and women and divided them into five for each cell. Then they took the children downstairs to what the demons now call 'The Play Pen'.

After the adults ate, they all laid down to rest. On the demon leaders lap laid the little frail boy. Still sleeping soundly and holding tightly onto the leaders pants.

The leader covered him in his jacket, but doing so exposed all the scars the leader had on his arms. Scars from fights with other demons before he became leader.

After a couple of hours a demon dressed as a scientist walked up to the leader. "Shall we begin?" he asked. The leader nodded his head.

Then the scientist left and two guards came in. They went to cell 1 and grabbed one man. They put him in cuffs and dragged him to the Patients Room upstairs.

Confused all the people started waking up. Their where only a few thousand people left because the elders made up most of the world's population.

They then started asking question about what's going on, but the leader ignored them. He was focused on the little boys sleeping face the whole time. He thought the kid was adorable.

He decided that this kid was his. But he didn't know his name. "Do any of you know what this kids name is?" he asked. Silence befell the room.

"He actually doesn't have a name. I've been visiting their house this whole year, and they just keep calling him sweetpea." one of the women spoke up.

"Is that so?" he mumbled to himself. "Then what about I call him... Lucifer. Yes Lucifer sounds perfect!" the leader said.

Then the little boy's gripped loosened and he sat upright on the leaders lap. "Hello there Lucifer." the leader cooed. The little boy opened his eyes and gave a weak smile to the leader. His eyes were filled with life, but you could see a bit of deadness inside them.

He had the most beautiful eyes. One very light blue eye that looked like ice and the other one green, the colour of darkest part of the forest. And his teeth were also unusualy sharp. Actual what was unusual was that he already had a whole set of teeth. His pitch black hair was long and sort of hanging in the boys face.

The leaders heart melted at the sight of the little boy smiling. "This boy is mine from now on!" he claimed while lifting the boy up and kissing his forehead. The little boy giggled and when he was put back down on the leaders lap he fell asleep again.
