"Yes, what's wrong with him, he looks pale and sickly. I hope you aren't maltreating him." Fife glared at Gad.
"You better change your tone." Gad glared back at him."What are you going to do if I don't?" Fife replied back."That's enough, I don't want to hear any more arguments from you two." Elena glared at both of them, they both kept quiet immediately."Now Gad, what's wrong with Theodore?""He made me promise not to tell you but I have no choice but tell you. I want to help him but I don't know how. I was hoping you could help me."Elena and Fife's face grew serious when they heard Gad's words."Tell us what is wrong with him." Elena said.Gad told them everything that had been happening in Hades."That damn Fire elder and his bastard son." Fife cursed."Why doesn't he leave the class? Does he enjoy the beatings and injuries?" Elena asked."I have no idea, we have all pleaded with"Who is there?" Theodore asked."Why are you so weak?" the voice asked again."Who are you?" Theodore shouted."Do you think I don't know why you have refused to leave the class? It's because you think it's punishment. Punishment that you couldn't save your parents, that your friends suffered because of you. That isn't true, none of what happened is your fault.""It is." Theodore sobbed."No it isn't. Everything happened because life is unfair. It has nothing to do with you.""It does. Didn't you hear what the demons said? I am a weakling.""No you aren't.""Yes I am, among humans, nobody wants me. Among demons, nobody wants me.""You are a fool if you think like that, your foster parents loved you, your friends loves you. Your mother loves you. Among the demons, Iris, Phidius and Gad loves you. You are wanted and loved. Are you going to let Devon and his father belittle you.""But they are rig
Theodore got on top of Devon and began to beat him, he rained punches on his face and body. With every punch, he remembered everybody who had ever treated him badly.All Theodore could see was red, he didn't even notice his surroundings anymore."Azazel please stop, he has lost consciousness. Let him go." he heard someone pleading with him.Gradually he came back to his senses, he looked down at Devon. His face and body was bloody."Let him go. You won the fight." Iris pleaded with him.Theodore released Devon and got up."What the hell did you just do?" Fire elder asked."We were fighting, doesn't the rules say that we can only stop when our opponents surrender. I didn't hear him surrender.""He surrendered, he shouted his surrender several times." Fire elder said angrily."He did? Maybe he didn't say it loud enough." Theodore said with an innocent face."Fire elder, the prince has fulfilled t
Theodore stopped going to the fire control class. Word had spread round Hades about what had happened during the class. All those who had called Theodore a weakling previously now held him in high esteem. Fire elder on the other hand was enraged at Theodore's disrespect. When Devon woke up and was told about what Theodore had done, he was infuriated, he swore within himself that he would have his revenge. "What do you think?" Theodore asked Gad as he showed him his outfit."You look good Azazel" Gad replied.Today was the opening night of Fife and Elena's new business and Theodore and Gad were going to support them. Iris was also going with them, she had pleaded that she was bored so Theodore had allowed her to go with them."You look good yourself Gad" Theodore walked up to him and unbuttoned the first two buttons of Gad's shirt."There you look much better"."Azazel can I ask you something?" "Sure, what is
"How is he? He looks much happier" Elena asked Gad. Theodore and Iris were dancing on the dance floor. "He is better now, I think" Gad said. He told them what had happened."So you mean that he beat up that bully who you said is very strong and he told the fire elder that he wasn't qualified to teach him?" Fife asked in shock."yes that is what happened""What do you think happened that suddenly made him strong?" Elena asked."I don't know what happened, but I am glad he is getting better. The night mares have stopped as well, he sleeps fine at night""I am so glad, thanks a lot Gad for looking after him for me" Elena said."Its nothing, he is my friend, its my job to look after him" Gad replied."What are you guys talking about?" Theodore asked as he sneaked behind Gad and held his waist.Gad turned around and hooked his arms around Theodore's neck."We were talking about how you are such an awful danc
Several weeks had passed. Theodore had settled down to life in Hades. Ever since his victory over Devon, the demons had learnt to respect him.He regularly went to classes in the academy, fire elder and Devon had stayed out of his way.He, Iris and Gad occasionally went to Dixon's lounge in Dresden. Elena and Iris were gradually becoming friends although Elena didn't know Iris true intentions yet.Iris and Theodore were relaxing one day after class when Gad rushed in."Azazel! There is a big problem." he said."What is it?" Theodore asked."Dixon lounge is on fire!""What!" Theodore stood up immediately."How did this happen?" Iris asked."I don't know. The demons who are keeping an eye on them just informed me there was a fire. I have no idea why it happened." Gad replied."Let's go over immediately." Iris said.They headed over to Dresden, Phidius sent two water users with them.
Theodore came out of the lake after the discussion he just had with his father.He bent down close to the lake, "Wake up, I have an errand for you." the lake immediately started bubbling.Theodore whispered to the lake and went back to his room."Azazel, are you okay? Where have you been?" Gad asked anxiously."Relax, I just went to cool off. I am okay.""Are you sure? Don't just walk off like that. I was so worried.""I am okay Gad. I won't walk off like that and make you worried again.""You better don't. So what are you going to do about Devon?" Gad asked."Nothing. I am going to leave it to fate.""Are you serious?""Very serious. I have decided not to do anything about it. I will just focus on getting stronger." Theodore said. Gad felt that something about Theodore was suspicious but he couldn't figure it out.Two days later, Hades was in an uproar. Fire elder's mansion was on fire and nobody could put out the fire. The fire users couldn't manipulate it and even the water users c
"The Vampire kingdom?" Theodore asked."yes, the Vampire kingdom." Phidius replied."Where the vampires stay?" Theodore asked again."yes, where the vampires stay. We have learnt about all this" Gad told him."Are you okay crown prince?" Phidou asked."yes I am." Theodore replied."So I will be going, you and Gad as well. Then fire elder and ice elder." Phidius said. "Fire elder is going?" Gad asked in displeasure."As much as I don't like the idea, he has a lot of influence and taking him along so we can watch over him is better than leaving him in Hades to wreck havoc." Phidius replied."I am going?" Theodore asked."Yes you are. The others are very curious about you, you have to be present." Phidius said."When do we leave Master?" Gad asked."In two days time." Phidius replied.The Vampire kingdom........Alistair was training with one of the elder vampires when Gemini entered the training room.Gemini sat down in a corner patiently and waited for him to be through.At last Alist
Theodore stood in front of the palace of Salvatore waiting to be called in. He was so nervous, would Alistair be there? Would he recognize him? What about that cruel brother of his?"Azazel are you okay?" Gad asked him."I am fine." he answered."You don't have to be so nervous. You are just here for appearance sake. You won't have to say anything. The elders and master will handle everything okay?" Theodore nodded.Theodore looked around, he was surrounded by a lot of creatures who he had thought only existed in books.Elves with their sharp point ears, devils who looked terrible, Gad had told him that devils were descended from demons through an experiment which had gone wrong.Fairies with their tinkling laughter, Ghosts with their pale transculent skin. Werewolves who looked fierce and peered at everyone suspicously.The large doors of the palace open and the queen came out, she was flanked by two handsome vampires. Theodore's breath hitched when he saw him, the man he had been dr
Theodore told his parents all about Alistair. They told him they were delighted that he had a boyfriend and couldn't wait to see him.They turned to his brother. "And you sweetie, did you meet anyone?" his mother asked. "Nope, it was a boring trip, I am glad to be back home." he replied in a dull monotonous voice. "Kel baby, are you sure you are okay?" his mother asked. "I am fine. Why do you keep asking me that?" he yelled angrily. Their parents were shocked and so was Theodore. "We didn't mean to annoy you, we were just worried about you." his dad said gently. "Well you don't need to be, I am fine." he replied. "Okay, there is no need to be angry my love." their mom said in a placating manner. "I want my own room." he said. Theodore looked at him in surprise. "Why would you say that?"He looked at Theodore, "Why? Why can't I say that?" he asked. "We have always shared a room. We are twins, remember?" Theodore asked. He laughed in ridicule of me. "Twins? We are just freak
Theodore, Alistair and Kelan walked into the palace.Theodore looked everywhere, everything still looked familiar to him."What is it?" Alistair asked him."Everywhere and everything looks the same." he replied."Well your father didn't want to change anything in the palace. He always believed your spirit was roaming around and he wanted the palace to remain familiar to you." Alistair told him."That's kind of him." Theodore replied."It is. He loves you a lot.""I am aware, my current parents are a reincarnation of my adoptive parents, right?" Theodore asked."Yes, they are.""Life really works in mysterious ways." Theodore remarked."Can we go in now?" Kelan asked."Yes, oh impatient one." Theodore teased him.They entered inside, Theodore hugged his father tightly."Welcome back son." his father told him."It's good to be back." Theodore replied.His father looked at Alistair and Kelan, a welcoming smile on his face."And thanks Alistair for not giving up on him and thanks Kelan fo
Later Alistair and Theodore lay in bed looking at each other."So what are your plans now?" Alistair asked him."I still have to finish my education, I don't want my parents to be drawn into the supernatural world and I also want to keep my brother safe." Theodore replied."That's okay, I also don't want you to be drawn into the supernatural world either, I just want to go away with you and live a normal life." Alistair replied."That's what I want too. I am so glad we found each other again Alistair." Theodore replied."Me too Theo, me too.""What are we going to do about the flute? I don't like you playing it and I especially don't like how it mysteriously came to you either." Alistair asked Theodore."I agree with you, the flute always has a effect on people whenever I play it. Do you think we should lock it up?" Theodore asked."Exactly, I will get a magically fortified box from Elena and we will our it inside, only you will be able to unlock it""And where do you think we should
Theodore opened his eyes, he felt like he had just woken up from a dream. He remembered everything. His life in Qiren and hades. Lord and lady Dixon, Fife, Elena, his mother and father. Lastly he remembered Alistair, he chuckled to himself, no wonder he had fallen head over heels for him. He looked at Kelan, the little flower he had picked up from the bottomless pit. The little flower that saved him.His gaze wandered down to the flute that had ended his life back then. Somehow the flute had come back into his possession."I told you I would follow you everywhere, didn't I?" Kelan asked him.Theodore pulled him into a hug, "thanks Kelan for everything" he whispered."I got you bro always" Kelan whispered back."so do you believe me now?" Hazel asked."Yes we do" they answered in unison."that's good to know.""So who are you, why do you know so much?" Kelan asked. "I am Hazel like I said earlier, I created the flute and the bottomless pit""so what do you want? Why did you search for
The day before"come on let's go for a walk, you are too gloomy" kelvin told Teddy. He was tired of Teddy moping around all day."I am not in the mood" Teddy replied. "why? Let's go for a walk, you have been moping around all day, the fresh air will lift your mood up." Kelvin persuaded him. He pulled him up and dragged a protesting Teddy outside and they went outside.They walked for a while, "you were right, the fresh air is lifting my mood up gradually.""I told you so""I don't know why I feel this way" Teddy confessed."Its because you like him and he just left without telling you anything after you both slept together.""I feel I did something wrong, maybe he felt I was too inexperienced" Teddy said sadly.Kevin resisted the urge to roll his eyes, Teddy was being too dramatic for his liking."Teddy, you didn't do anything wrong, maybe he really has a family emergency""you are right. I will just wait till he comes back" Teddy said.Suddenly they were pulled into the corner by un
Elena came out of the lake along with Daniel. After the battle of dresden, the gods had decided to make the lake a transportation and communication means so the alliance could quickly reach them on time."Hey Alistair" she said as she gave him a big hug."Hey Elena. How are you doing?" Alistair asked."I am okay. You?""I am fine.""so why did you summon me?" she asked."I wanted to question you about something""what is it?""You are still in charge of the lake of souls right?""Yes I am. After my punishment was over, I and Daniel discovered that we loved the peace and quiet of the lake so we decided to keep on working there." Elena explained."I want to ask you about the past lives of two people." Alistair said."what are their names?""Theodore Jones and Kelan Jones"Elena sighed. "Alistair. You know that he is gone.""I know, but just humor me and check i
Teddy stood up from the bed and walked to the bathroom to brush his teeth. He blushed as he remembered what had happened the previous night between him and Alistair.They had done a lot of unmentionable things. Alistair had shown him how the sofa, door, bathroom could be utilized for sexual pleasure.He came out of the bathroom and saw Kelvin who had just walked in."Hey bro, what's up?" Kelvin greeted him."I am fine, you?""I am okay. You left the club early yesterday. We were very worried until the guard who drove the car back notified us that you were okay, that you had gone home with Alistair. Why didn't you tell me before you left?""I am sorry. I wasn't feeling too well, Alistair offered to take me home. I saw that you were having fun,I didn't want to disturb you that is why I left with him""I see. So you weren't feeling well?""Yes""So your going home has nothing to do with the fact that you and Alistair kissed and were probably too horny so you came home to fuck each other?
Alistair gazed at Teddy as he slept. For the past five hundred years, a lot of people had tried to seduce him but none of them had succeeded. Yet, a little kiss from Teddy had broken down all his defenses. He was surprised why he wasn't able to think straight when he was around Teddy.Could it be because his name was Theodore? But he had met several Theodores in the past five hundred years and none of them had been able to attract him.Teddy stirred in his sleep, soon he was wriggling in discomfort on the bed. He started to groan like he was in pain."Teddy! Wake up" Alistair tried to wake him up gently but it was of no use."No, no, no" Teddy said in his sleep."Come on, wake up Theodore" Alistair told him.Teddy suddenly jerked awake."Are you okay?" Alistair asked him."I had a bad dream. It's nothing to worry about, I always have this dreams""Do you want to talk about it?"Teddy thought about it, the only person who knew about his dreams was Kelvin. Even his parents didn't know a
When they got to the club, Clarissa immediately went to meet the bartender, while Micheal located the girl he was talking to the previous night and engaged in a deep conversation with her.Teddy, Kelvin and Alistair were left at the table. "no drinking of alcohol" Teddy whispered to Kelvin."I should be the one telling you that, weren't you the one who got drunk and passed out last night" Kelvin retorted. "It was a one time thing." Teddy whispered back. "So Teddy and Kelvin, you two are twins?" Alistair asked. "Yes, we are. " Teddy answered. "but you aren't identical" Alistair pointed out. "no we aren't. Not all twins are identical" Kelvin answered. "Why are your names not identical or related. Twins normally have related names.""Well when our mum was pregnant with us, she had a dream that she should name us Theodore and Kelan." Teddy explained. "Kelan?" Alistair asked in confusion. "my birth name is actually Kelan but I decided to go by Kelvin. " Kelvin said. "So Theodore a
