Minutes pass, or maybe an hour? It feels like forever I'm slowly processing what happened, but every time I do even more questions come up. Some of the questions that have been really stuck in my mind are "How did this happen?" "Am I a demon?" "Is this a curse?" so many questions were slowly making me unable to sleep. I just kept sitting there as the clock from the hallway echoed with its ticks, It was putting me in a trance the more I listened. Soon the almost trance I was in was abruptly gone as I saw a mysterious portal, covered top to bottom with a black and purple mist.
As I focused more on the Portal I became more amazed, but 2 people abruptly walked through and out of the Portal into my room. I was shocked and terrified as I quickly jumped up off my bed grabbing my pillow off the bed with me as a weapon as I looked at the 2 people in my room. One of the people was old man, around mid 60's well groaned hair, a slight beard whited as It can be in a business suit, but what was most out of the ordinary was 2 demonic looking horns coming from his head and a spike looking tail from his lower back, his eyes where gleaming red and they could be. The second person looked like a young servant in a suit and glasses, he looked around early or mid 20's. His hair was green as the spring leaves, he had 2 white demon horns that looked like mine and a bone tail from his lower back. I kept looking at them confused and questioning what they were, The old man quickly put his hands above his chest gesturing me to calm down "Woah! No need to be so guarded kid" He said with a warm smile to back his words up and with an obvious cold sweat from his cheek.
I sighed as I was reluctant but agreed, lowering my pillow, I looked at the Old man "So who are you?" I said with a guarded stance still. The old man lowered his hand as he bowed to me and then stood back up "I'm Sir Vlad, but you can call me Uncle" he said with a smile. I was shocked from what I heard as I took a step back "W-wait U-Uncle!?" I said as I stuttered on my words not being able to believe what he said. I quickly calmed down from the shock as I looked at the other person "And him?" I said with caution, "Oh that's William, he's my servant" Sir Vlad said with a kind smile and his hand raised at him. "So, You're my uncle…" I said, still unsure of the whole situation, "Yes, just call me Uncle or Uncle Vlad" my uncle said with a warm smile. "O-okay…Uncle…" I said with hesitation, just from the words of Uncle his face gained a blush of happiness "He called me Uncle" as my uncle said his face has an engraved smile on it.
I smiled nervously from his expression followed up with a quiet chuckle, from the off topic conversation William coughed to clear the awkward air. "So you must have plenty of questions young master" William said towards me, I cleared my throat before speaking "Yes, I do…A lot actually" I said in an uncertain tone. My uncle silently nodded from my words "We can't answer all but we could answer most of them right now" my uncle said in a reassuring tone as he gave me a warm smile. I nodded from his response as I thought of a good question, "So what am I, or we?" I said in a nervous tone. "We are Demons" My uncle said in a happy tone with a hint of pride in his voice. I'm not completely shocked as It was obvious from the features. I nodded from the answer slightly nervous. "Okay that was obvious, then…How come I never knew about this?" I said with a questioning tone, "Well your parents made a contract with the current demon king to move to the human realm, but currently after…" my uncle quickly caught his words. "What happened? Are you saying they…" I said in a confused tone, all my uncle could do was nod slowly in silence. I stood there in shock not from the fact they died but more of the fact that I was adopted "It took us a while to find you after your parents death, we only found you a few years ago but thought it was best to tell you on your 16th birthday" my uncle said with a slight smile trying to light the mood. "Why my 16th birthday?" I said quickly after "We wanted to wait for the transformation to happen so it would be easier to understand in a way" my uncle said with a nervous smile.
I looked confused from his answer as I responded with a confused tone "Wait, we aren't born with horns and a tail?". After I said that my uncle died of laughter as he wiped a tear from his eye, "Oh Satan no, we grow them when we turn 16, quite painful for everyone" My uncle said "You could say that again '' I said with an uncomfortable smile. "So why are you here now? This late at night?" I asked my uncle with a face of interest, "Well we came to bring you back to your birth world" my uncle said with a joyful smile. "But what about my life here?" I asked my uncle in a shocked tone as I was reluctant to leave this life. "It's for your own safety Vincent, you could quickly be hunted or tested if you were found" my uncle said with a desperate plea to keep me safe. I was hesitant but if his words were true I could quickly be killed on the spot from my features. "Fine" I said, followed up by a sigh of sadness that I would have to leave my home. My uncle was happy to hear my answer as he raised his hand towards the portal in my room "Follow me to your new life and home" he said with a warm smile.
