Adonael walks the hallways of the castle, a proud smile on his face as he prances towards his father. He can't wait to tell him about how he is now able to go to Earth. The man might be a bit worried and the boy understands that, but they can probably figure something out.

As he approaches the gate of the statue, he's roughly pulled in by his father who drops him onto the ground.

He orders his son to not get up as he walks back and forth infront of the boy, hands to his head. After a few stress-filled moments, he turns to Adonael.

He stares at his beautiful son, how his innocent eyes look up to him, how his long golden brown locks almost touch his shoulders and fall over his perfectly constructed face.

His eyes, which once held so much innocence and purity, now makes one shiver.

He crouches down and takes his son's face in his hands, stroking his thumb across the boy's cheek while tears well up in his eyes.

"Father! What's wrong?" The boy cries out, worry flowing through his body.

The ruler of the heavens pulls the boy towards him and plants a big kiss on his forehead, taking in the scent of the one he loves most.

Once he releases the boy, he stands up and collects himself. "You have done wrong."

Adonael can't do anything but watch, watch how his father tries not to cry, how hurt and despair fill his voice even though he tries to hide it.

"I've been told about your deeds at the other end of the hill, about what you did with that thing."

"No, father, I can explain it was a huma-." "SHUT UP."

The booming voice of the man shuts the boy up immediately and he closes his mouth, afraid of upsetting the elder again.

"That was a demon taking a human's form. I have no idea how it got past our gates but it did and it tricked you." He swallows thickly before continuing.

"I realise that I am also to blame. I thought that keeping you unknowing would be the best way to protect you. I thought that if you remained like this forever that you would never leave me, but I was wrong."

Adonael can't hold his tears in anymore, he jumps up and runs towards his father with his arms spread. He wants to hold him and never let go, beg on his knees for forgiveness.

His father opens his arms and hugs his boy close, ignoring the burning he feels throughout his whole body, the agonizing pain of touching his son.

He steps back, seperating them after the pain gets too much to handle. "I have to punish you for what you did. You might not think it's a punishment, but trust me son, it is."

Adonael's legs are shaking, he feels like he'll collaps any second now. He's terrified, confused, saddened, he just wants to make it up to his father.

He straightens his back and holds his head up high. "I will do anything to redeem you."

The ruler looks at his son with pride and fear, pride for how determined he is to make up for his wrong doings, but fear of what he has to do now.

"You will take the form of a human boy and will descend down to Earth. If you want to return home, you will need to turn six lost souls, pure. If you never succeed in doing so, you will stay on Earth forever as a human and eventually die."

The only thing Adonael can do is scream. The once enchanting silk voice becomes the scowl of a banshee, being heard throughout the whole land. The ear-piercing wailing of an angel who has done the worst thing imaginable.

Tears stream down the boy's face as his screaming continues on. He doesn't want this, he never intended to do such a horrible thing.

His screams die down when he spots his reflection in the marbled floor. His eyes..

They're black..

"I am so stupid father, please forgive me, please don't leave me." He cries out, stumbling over every word.

His father just looks away, unable to look at his son in such a heart breaking state of mind. "Earth is a dangerous place, it's filled with monsters and sinners. Humans are disgusting creatures and you have to be really careful."

He takes a deep breath.

"You will go by a new name, since you are not pure anymore."

Adonael interrupts his father to beg him. "Please don't say the name father, I'm Adonael, your son, I don't want another name."

The ruler's heart breaks once he hears the name of the boy that his son once was. "It's not your name anymore."

"Don't say it."

"It's -."

"Don't say it."

"It's inevitable, boy."

"DON'T SAY IT!"

"It's Jungkook."
