Rin pov

Sirens go off. I stop crying. I put my ear up against the door. I listen to outside. the guards drop their weapons and they leave the door. What is happening outside? The sirens get louder. I crawl away from the sound, It keeps getting louder. From the crack underneath the door, I can see red lights. What is happening? Was this because I was a bad boy? Did I cause this? Is it because I am a monster?

I start crying again. This is scary. Something feels off. Something feels wrong. Different. New. Strong... 

So strong, It's scary but comforting. Suddenly the sires turn off. 

There is a long period of silence, dead silence. There is almost always noise. Whether it is another experiment going on or the causal chatter of doctors, or the breaths of the guards outside.

Then there is suddenly a lot of noise. Loud noises and lots of them; things breaking, angry roars, and cries of pain. I push myself into the corner of the darkroom. 

The noise is worse than silence. It is scarier, I run out of tears, and I just start whimpering.

The noise and the dark are scary, and I close my eyes. I try to become as small as possible. I am a bad boy. Is this my punishment? Is this my fault? Can I make this up? Can I be a good boy again? 

The door creaks open and I look at the door. Is it the doctor? Can I be good again? 

Light pours in. I can't see the person but I can tell they are much different from the doctor. They look different. 

They are shaped differently, they are taller and they have a tail. They get closer to me, they look like an angel. Light sounds them. They are beautiful. 

Am I dead? Wait am I In heaven? But I'm A demon. Demons don't go to heaven.

They kneel to my level and offer out a hand. 

"Are you an angel?" I ask awestruck. They are beautiful. The person smiles. 

"no, I am not an angel. But I am here to help you," The beautiful figure replies. 

"Who are you?"

"Lucifer. The demon king of light. I am here to rescue you," Lucifer replies. 

"I thought demons were bad," I reply confused. How could Lucifer be a demon? Demons are bad. 

Lucifer doesn't look bad. he is beautiful. And he is here to help me. 

"No, Demons aren't bad. Nor are the evil or wrong. Whoever told you that was lying," Lucifer replies. I trust Lucifer, so I put my hand in his. 

"How?"

"I am a demon, and I am here to help you. Good is helping others right?" Lucifer asks and I nod. "And did the doctors help you?"

"well... I helped them and I was a good boy."

"But did they help you?"

"They gave me food." 

"The doctors or guards?"

"The guards..."

"And those guards work for me. A demon, but those doctors are humans. They didn't help you. But I will," Lucifer replies, and he gives me a piece of bread. I grab it and I eat it immediately. 

He looks at me and frowns. " Can you walk?" he asks. 

I shake my head. "I was a bad boy and my legs aren't working." 

Lucifer frowns and he picks me up and holds me, and he wraps his cape around me. He is warm, so very warm. I grab onto him.

Lucifer stands up and walks out of the dark cell, and the light hits my eyes and I close my eyes. Lucifer puts his hand over the light causing a shadow to fall on my eyes. I blink a few times and I get used to the light. 

I look around and Lucifer removes his hand from above me. He adjusts his cape around me. I cuddle into his warmth. I close my eyes a bit but I keep them open. I need to stay awake. 

"Are you tired?" Lucifer asks. I nod. "Then rest. You are safe now." 

 "But I need to stay awake," I start rubbing my eyes. 

"Why?" Lucifer asks. 

"So I can be a good boy," I reply.

He frowns again for some reason. "is it good for you to defy me?" Lucifer asks. 

I shake my head, I don't want him to be mad at me. I don't want anyone to be mad at me.

"Then be good for me and rest ok?"

 I nod as I close my eyes and try to sleep. Being good for lucifer is easy...

Lucifer pov

I look down at Rin. 

He is far too thin and pale, he looks sickly. 

It's surprising considering the doctors destroyed the sword that was keeping Rin's flames away. Though they did replace the suppression with a power blocker. 

On a child. A power blocker. Humans are disgusting. I remove it from Rin's feeble wrist. A red irritated scar is where the blocker used to be.

He is just a boy just a small thing. Even smaller since he has been starved. he is frail and pale. He is pure. He is innocent. And the humans here hurt him. They abused him. They starved him. They made him feel afraid. 

Father would be furious, the human he adored so much would have never stood for this. 

For his will or possibly hers I ensure this never happens. Never again will Rin be treated like this. Never again will he be treated like this. He is a prince. He will be treated as such. 

I walk to the rest of the rescue team. We found eight other demons being kept in captivity at this facility. Eight other lives that will help aid our cause in ending this human entitlement. 

A few guards walk up to me. They hand me the drive containing the locations of the other facilities like these. We can expand and liberate so many demons this way. Another glorious day of progress for our cause. Another wonderous step closer to a world that has peace between humans and demons.

I look down at Rin. For as perfect and pure as the True Cross Order claims to be, they there are the truly evil. Few exorcists truly mean well. I hope my brother realizes that before it is too late. 

"Ensure they all get on the base safely, and keep the doctor alive. I am going to take the prince to my room," I say to my guard. She nods. 

I get on the ship and I walk to my room. Once I arrive I set put Rin in my bed. I put the sheets over him and I stay by his side. He needs his rest but he is so weak he could slip away in his sleep, and I refuse to let him slip away.
