Brothers
Rin's POV
We'd spent the entire day touring the castle before retiring to the dorm room. It'd been about 3 hours in Assiah, which wouldn't be missed, seeing as it was the middle of the night there.
Used to rising early every morning, I rolled out of bed and put my usual Gahennian attire on, minus the crown, and let my wings out again (it is very uncomfortable to sleep with them out). I knew breakfast was in half an hour, as all of my brothers and my father were early risers as well, so I walked over to Yukio's bed and tried to wake him. Stubbornly, he refused to get up so I yanked the blanket off him, but since he'd grabbed the blanket at the last second, he followed the blanket onto the floor.
"Good morning. Breakfast is in twenty minutes. Since you don't have any royal attire, you can borrow from my closet."
"Rin, what time is it?"
"7:26 am now." I'd woken him a minute before.
"What? How are you up so early?" Before I died I used to get up extremely late, around 1 or 2 in the afternoon.
"I got up at 7 am every morning for over 100 years. Now get up, we're gonna be late for breakfast."
He got up, groggily walking towards his closet to get some clothes. He didn't have any suitable attire for a Gahennian royal so I directed him to my closet.
"Why are you pushing me away from my closet and towards yours?"
"You're a Gahennian royal since you're Satan's son and my brother. You don't have any royal attire. I do." Luckily, he and I were the same size in clothing so I didn't have to hunt down a sibling to steal clothes from.
He grumbled, but ended up borrowing a teal shirt and black pants since the dress shoes that went the school uniform were acceptable. After he'd dressed, I began to drag him to the dining room.
"You ready to meet our other siblings?"
"Wait, what?"
"Lucifer and Samael - Mephisto - are in Assiah but you can meet our other brothers. There's Azazel, Egyn, Ilbis, Beezlebub, Astaroth, and you've already met Amaimon."
"We're brothers with the other Archdemons?" Archdemons was another word for Demon Kings.
"Yeah. You know their domains, right?"
"Yeah. Lucifer is king of light, Mephisto is time, Azazel is spirits, Egyn is water, Ilbis has fire, Beezlebub's is insects, and Astaroth has rot, right?" Yukio had learned that the exorcists were idiots, so he obviously wanted to verify the information.
"Yes. We're here," I paused before opening the door, "You ready?" He nodded so I opened the double doors.
We were greeted with an usual sight to me, though confusing to Yukio. Water and fire were shot between their respective demons while Astaroth was running around covered in insects from Beezlebub who was, in turn, covered in rot. Said insect king was chasing the king of rot, as the water king was chasing the fire one. Ilbis had stolen something of Egyn's, no doubt. As all of this was happening, Azazel was sitting at the table with a "I'm completely done with this" expression on his face and shaking his head. When he saw us and how the others failed to notice us, he facepalmed.
I sighed and let my flames encircle each of our rather idiotic acting siblings. Father and I were the only ones who could easily gain the Demon King's attention, as they often thought I was Father since we got their attention the same way. Azazel could gain the idiots' attention if he screamed at them, as Azazel is very quiet and conserved.
As soon as my flames circled around each sibling except for Azazel, the room went silent and the water, fire, insects, and rot around the room disappeared. The troublesome siblings gulped and turned to the door to find me, no doubt with a very annoyed expression, and Yukio. Azazel, who had just noticed Yukio, attained a confused look, which our other brothers copied once they realized I wasn't Father. Ignoring them, I lead Yukio to the table and sat down in my usual seat, next to where Father sat, leaving the seat between Azazel and I for Yukio to sit in. He accepted the seat so I turned to Azazel.
"Azazel, meet Yukio, my twin and our youngest brother. Yukio, meet Azazel, our third oldest brother," I introduced, "He's the most mature out of all of our siblings, especially these idiots here." I gestured to the 4 siblings still standing where I stopped their fighting. Once more, the door opened and Father, with Amaimon, entered. Fortunately for the water, fire, and rot kings, they had caused no damage to the dining room. We all sat at the long table, Egyn, Amaimon, Azazel, Yukio and I on one side, Beezlebub, Ilbis, and Astaroth on the other. The ones sat on the other side left a chair in between them and the next king, probably because of Azazel and I glaring at them, to separate themselves. Father sat at the head of the ebony table.
"I see you've met Yukio. He is your youngest brother and Rin's fraternal twin. Yukio, if Rin hasn't yet introduced you, these are your older brothers, Azazel, Egyn, Ilbis, Beezlebub, Amaimon, and Astaroth," Father listed us in order from oldest to youngest, "My oldest, Lucifer, and my second oldest, Samael, are in Assiah right now. You've met Samael, he likes to go by Mephisto in Assiah." By now, servants began to bring out our breakfast, setting the dishes on the table.
"Father, how is Yukio your son? He's human."
"Yukio is half demon but his demon half has been suppressed by Azazel's clone, Shiro Fuijimoto, and Samael. Samael trapped Rin's demon heart in the Koma sword, as well as supressed his and Yukio's demon half to keep Shiro from killing them when they were born. As Yukio's demon half is weaker than Rin's, it may take awhile to break free of Samael's suppression. You can feel it trying to break free." By now we had a confused Yukio and surprised Archdemons.
Assuring Yukio that we could address this later, I asked Father to change the subject to something more light and usual as we ate breakfast. He complied, and Yukio got to know most of his siblings and visa versa.
