Hell)

 

          Sahed, his two bodyguards, David, and Ilen bowed.
Lucida opened the moon gate, where they disappeared taking David and the baby with them.
Ilen muttered " see you soon dear friends... see you soon..."

THE DEMON WITHIN

 

 

 

 

 

 

Akma, demon dimension...

 

          Their feet touched the ground simultaneously, and the gate immediately was closed behind them. A saatnee, a demon, a namakan, and a human (half-one) holding his newborn baby.

 

          Sizzling thick waves of extreme evil heat pierced every cell in David's body, and put a huge amount of pressing heaviness on his senses. Almost seen with the naked eye, David felt those malicious burning waves fumbling slowly the inside of his mind.

 

          He tightened his hold on Nina...

 

David Hades:

 

 

The poor baby who deprived of knowing her mother, her growing hateful unforgivingness toward me, the sinful monster, will be my own hell I deserve living in.

 

- "Welcome to my world, human." Lucida glanced at David and added, "or, do you prefer vapidus?"
- " My name is David." a sort of rage invaded him so easily, fueled his already grieving heart, he didn't even know why he wanted to rip Lucida's head off, to plant his teeth deep inside her demon neck, and to let freely his dried veins gulping the life from her evil existence.

 

          His eyes began to change their color, when every sad memory rushed into a movie, blocking his sight, every horrible day he went on through his life, joined that movie. This atmosphere is indeed the beginning of my hell.

 

          "This is my home sweet home: Akma, can I call you Dave?" Lucida asked.

 

He wasn't there, couldn't help himself when the human disappeared. David at that moment was the beast, craving for not just blood. All his rage, hate, sadness, anger, and the ocean of misery, were gathered in the center of his heart, nourishing and feeding that beast he became.

 

          The sleeping baby was already in Sahed's hands, he was brushing lightly the baby's soft cheeks with his lips, then put light kisses on them, and ended with a long one on her little forehead. At the same time, David was unconsciously falling down; the dark veins of thirst and rage on his face were fading away. No one saw how, or when this happened.

 

"You go to the castle." Sahed ordered his followers, then turned his back to them, and flew heading toward the fortress, to see the lord.

 

          Hundreds of years ago, that was the last time they met, even living in the same dimension. Yin and yang, the two greatest forces maintaining the power balance of our universe, opposing in their most complementary ways.

 

          "Silorvid! You became a fine elder! The silver forehead suits you.."
Sahed was suppressing a tittle, he was referring to the mark on Silorvid's forehead, the demon who was, for more than a millennium, his servant. The cursed eye, a huge silver one, once accepting the demon elder chair, it appeared on his forehead.

 

          That was the link between the demon elder and the spirit watcher shrine, the way to receive orders, and messages from the lord himself, and the connection between the supreme council members, army commander, and clan leaders, even if they were wondering in other dimensions.

 

          Silorvid bowed briefly his head with a very welcoming giggle.
He was wearing a long black robe with ancient writings and symbols, all in silver. A silver dragon's head on each shoulder, and a stole decorated with small silver heads of some strange creatures. Black fire flames were surrounding him in a shielding way, it was his energy manifesting against the combination of Sahed's and Nina's.

 

-" Always at your service, master. The lord is waiting." pointing the way through the fortress entrance, with his open hand.
-" Your rigid face is suffering in pain!..trying to put this ridiculous smile on! "
Teasing his old companion was something new to both of them, Sahed was aware of the Asvisalokya's power influencing his, of that change in his powers essence, but Silorvid had no clues when it was about divinities' life and secrets.

 

          He stood glaring to his former master, wondering, but never could step in the forbidden area. Questioning the divinity or the lord, or rejecting anything from them, had been forever a redline for everyone else. Crossing that line had came, for millennia, alongside the eternal sleep.

 

-" You will never change, don't you? I know the way.." That's the definition of: don't come with me.
Sahed gave Silorvid the time he wanted to see his daughter Lucida. The demon elder opened his black-and-silver wings, gave Sahed a thank you head-bow. Then flew in an impressive speed toward Sahed's castle, drawing behind him a faded bright trail.

 

          Black, silver, and every shade of red, were the colors of Akma. The inside of the fortress, where Sahed was halfway from the throne room, wasn't an exception. He was walking in the huge hallway, where gigantic statues standing upright, each one holding a sword.

 

Black flames were attacking him furiously from everywhere, taking huge-beasts forms. With each fierce attack, a loud terrifying scream was heard. Another intruder would be immediately reduced in shreds, and could never last for a blink of an eye.

 

          Princess Ishtar, the lord's daughter appeared, about a hundred feet away from him. Her white hair with silver ends flew behind her back to the waist, and a silver hoop-snake on her head.
The silver jeweled chains of her tight dark-red gown was slipping onto her shoulders, revealing everything underneath, as every flowing piece of her gown did.
" Welcome to the nest! Maïtreya!... Severest saatnee! "

 

          She disappeared, letting dark-red smoke in her place, then appeared in no time in front of him, her face was one inch away from his, her lips almost touching Sahed's.
" Ishtar, the morning star! Long time no see, princess." Cold words running calmly, as if he was seeing a wall, not the goddess of love, lust, desire, beauty, and the most appealing eternal charm.

 

          She pulled away, pondering the way Sahed was holding protectively Nina, to better look at the baby.
" Your Youtan is about to blossom... I'm jealous!" she called Nina Youtan, the rare flower that had been blooming once every three thousand years. As well as the Azvisalokya, which came to life every two thousand years.
She disappeared again, and surprised him with a tight hug from behind. His shield against her flames, black and white, dark and light, pure and evil.

 

          She continued poisonously her breathing.
-" So sad! Why don't you let your guards down? Come, let us create the perfect universe... "
-" Not this time eternal beauty... " With a disapproval smile, he added:
" Not in this era..."

 

She turned to face him again, trying to hold his face between her hands. She couldn't touch but the thin power shield of light, finally muttered:
" Stubborn..boy.."

 

"Dearest friend.." A thunder-like voice came from the farthest point of the hallway.
Ishtar took few steps back, bowing her head in a welcoming way to her father, the lord. He was instantly in front of Sahed, showing few sharp-silver teeth through his evil smile. Dacos also was there, shadowing his lord, holding two half-full silver cups of light ruby red liquid in his hands.

 

- "You are going to destroy my fortress!"
- "I'll give you my castle instead.."
Both of them put the right hand on the other's left shoulder, that was their most respectful way of greeting and welcoming.

 

          The lord turned to face his daughter.
" My every-morning star! Dacos is dying to play your favorite game." That was true; Dacos couldn't hide his super-intolerable craving for the goddess of lust. His eyes were devouring every inch underneath the all-revealing gown of Ishtar, she could have taken off that supposedly-kind-of-wearing, and nothing was going to be changed.

 

          He added, touching her lower lip with his thumb, before going outside of his fortress with Sahed:
" Save the best of yours for your lord..."
"My deep desire, is for my lord, for my sire."
They both, Ishtar and Dacos, bowed. Dacos offered to his lord and to Sahed the elixir, then both of them went outside.

 

          Incest wasn't something uncommon between demons; they didn't have the family system, but the clan. Same thing for saatnees, namakans, and many other civilizations.
Families existed in aristocracies and royalties, where also, every aristocrat, or royalty member was a purebred.

 

          Ishtar, Dacos, Sahed, Ilen, Eldiis, Aenon, Silorvid, and also Lucida, were all purebreds.

 

————————————————————

 

Ishtar: daughter of the demons lord.

Dacos: commander of the demons army, and the lord councilor.

Sahed: the Saatnee supreme leader, and a divinity.

Ilen: lord of Saatnees, only because Sahed refused to sit on the throne.

Eldiis: commander of the saatnees warriors, and Ilen's right arm.

Aenon: a namakan prince, a mighty warrior, and Sahed's servant

Silorvid: a demon elder, the lord counsilor, and Lucida's father. He was once Sahed's servant.

Lucida: a high class demon warrior, and Sahed's servant.

          Sahed showed the pink mark on Nina's chest to the lord, then in a low tight voice, asked calmly the lord, while both were looking to the moon, the eclipse was finally over.

 

-" Don't you trust a divinity? Sealing a part of you inside her was unexpected."
-" She is the last Azvisalokya, the resurrection of Takara depends on her sacrifice, I won't take any chances." The lord answered in his clear voice.
-" In order to come back, mother cursed all the universe, she definitely was unique!"
-" Aaaaah... Indeed my friend... Indeed. "

 

          The lord couldn't hide is evil grin when talking about Takara; he took a gulp from his cup, and continued...
"The dimension will suffer the total annihilation, if its Azvisalokya accidentally dies before the ritual. Since your birth, her eternal sleep, Takara has been collecting this energy. We need to be patients for just few years."

 

          Sahed turned his head to face the lord, his godfather, if that would make sense.
Cherishing the last wish of Takara, the lord helped every saatnee to travel through the moon gate, when their dimension (Deimos) was collapsing. Demons were, since the unknown past, the gate keepers, no one was able to use it without a demon help.
He raised Sahed as his own son, gave him his castle, and ordered Silorvid, the noble demon, to serve him.

 

          The evil itself has a heart! A magnet for other full-of-darkness hearts. Takara! O mother!queen of Deimos, and soon queen of Earth...killing for power, in life and death, is your favorite game..

 

-" So, Earth is going to be her rebirth gift.. after exterminating humans.." Sahed stated, sipping the red ruby drink.
-" Not exterminating.." the lord's eyes met with Sahed's "..Enslaving.." raised his eyebrows "that would make it more valuable.. " everyone was studying carefully the raising
