ICHABOD'S POV.
The little child of about six years old, I got to know was the devil's son was my only golden opportunity of escape from the torment of hell.
When I was still alive, I had learned a type of mystical magic known as the mind magic. This type of magic helps one to influence someone's mind. I never even knew that it would come in handy one day. But it's a good thing that I learnt the magic, at least,it will help me to escape the torment of hell.
After my encounter with the young kid of six years old, I used the mind magic in influencing his mind. Good thing for me, he was too young for his mind to resist my mind magic.
My main aim was to use him as a distraction. That could only be possible if he becomes a heartless monster. According to what I know, his father, the devil was once a heartless monster. If he could become the heartless monster his father once was, then he would be the perfect distraction for me to escape the kingdom of darkness.
Once I have escaped the kingdom of darkness, my soul would be reborn as a new born baby in the human world. I would get to live life again.
I couldn't escape from the kingdom of darkness because of the guardian of the gates of hell, who we all know is Lucifer. No tormented soul could escape hell on his watch. Even the demons from the pit of hell were the pinnacle of our torment.
But using the devil's son as a way of escape was such a great idea that even I would be joyful anytime I think about it.
After the young kid left the realm of hell, my influence on his mind started his need to become the evil heartless monster his father once was. He started committing evil deeds, such as, stealing.
Yeah!
He would usually steal from the demons of the demon realm. He stole artifacts that could only be gotten in the kingdom of darkness.
With each year passing, his need to become a heartless monster, fueled his evil deeds. I even got to know that the devil supported his son's evil deeds.
How foolish can the devil be. Only if he had known earlier that his son committed the evil deeds to kill his heart, he wouldn't have supported his evil deeds.
After some lots of years of evil deeds, the young kid was finally a man. He was about twenty-two years old, when he revealed to his father and his mother, his real intentions of committing evil deeds. He had a fight with his father and that fight fueled his need to be a heartless monster. He even had to attack the underworld to harden his heart.
It was on that same day that he attack the underworld. After his little fight with his father. Wiping out the whole underworld would have been a great evil that would have successfully turned him into a monster. Only if he didn't get stopped by his father the devil.
Though, he was stopped by his father, he fought and killed his own father. I was quite overjoyed learning that he had killed his father, and after killing his father, he went through evolution.
Too bad, before he could evolve or change into a monster, that mother of his had to destroy the evolution.
But not to worry, I have waited a long time for the devil's son to turn into a monster. My influence on him would make him need to become a heartless monster. So that little setback was not really bad. Though, he couldn't fully turn into a heartless monster, his need to become one would surely turn him into a monster one day or another.
Him becoming a heartless monster was my only way if escaping the kingdom of darkness. Despite the little setback, I will escape hell.

DRAKE'S POV.
I struggled against the chains that held me bound. They were firm and seemed unbreakable but I kept on struggling, not giving up.
If I could kill my mum, that evil deed alone should be able kill my heart and I could once again,undergo the process of evolution. The need to become a heartless monster seemed to be brewing a storm inside of me. These seven demon Lords held the chains bounding me,so tight that all my struggles went down the drain. They had used their combined strength in bounding me.
My heart was still hardened but though, alive. It only means I was strong. My power and strength could roughly be equivalent to that of my dad, so it took their combined strength to bring me down.
My mom sat on the floor not far from me. She wasn't scared neither did fear cloud her eyes. I was about going to kill her when these stupid idiots used chains in bounding me.
It wasn't long when my dad flew down from the sky. He took my mom in his arms as worry was well written on his face. He had said some words to her and carried her in a bridal style. He took to the sky while carrying her in his arms. I figured out that they were making their way back to the castle.
Mate's love was the worst thing that has ever existed. It made my dad weak and vulnerable that I fought with him and killed him.
Good thing he survived. It gives me the opportunity to fight him and kill him again. Him and my mother.
Thinking of such, increased my need to become an evil heartless monster.
Just then, something hard hit my head and the next thing, I was overwhelmed by darkness.
I got to know that it was Osmond who had again, hit my head with that blade if his. I swear, I will kill that guy.
-----
I woke up again and I found myself in a cage. It was made of metal, not of crystalline stones. I growled, figuring out that they had locked me up. There were two fierce soul demons standing on guard of my cage.
I sighed.
I swear, I could have become the monster I had always wanted to be. No doubt, only if my mom had not destroyed my evolution.
I called out to the soul demons on guard and they both turned to look at me.
"Hey! You guys".
I called out in a casual tone.
They turned to me and shot me a fierce look.
"Do you need any help?"
The one at the left asked in a gruff voice.
"I may. But anyways, how long have I been out?"
I asked while deeply accessing them.
"Two days".
The one at the right answered.
"What!!!"
I screamed in total disbelief.
"That can't be right".
I said again,in disbelief.
"Lord Nasalum had put you into a deep sleep after they had bounded you and brought you to the castle".
The one at the right explained.
Taking my gaze down to the floor, I entered into a deep thought. Raising my head after a few moments, I asked again.
"What about the remaining evil spirits of the underworld?"
I asked.
"They were led back to the underworld and the devil sent some demons to help rebuild the underworld".
The soul demon at the left answered.
Giving a sigh, I relaxed a little on the bars of the cage. I gave them a nod and they both turned to the opposite side.
Soul demons were demons that fed on souls of the innocents. They were blue in colour and hard to kill. They were quite fierce in battle, no wonder must have ordered these two soul demons to stand guard.
These two soul demons were a lot huge. Soul demons didn't have a physical form. They were like souls that had somehow acquired legs and hands. Like I said, they were blue in colour and quite hard to kill. They were a lot different from evil spirits and animal demons,or even ghouls, zombie and orges.
Resting my back on the bars, I decided to take a little nap. Evolving into a heartless monster was quite tiring.
"Wake me up if anyone comes to visit especially my dad".
I ordered the two soul demons and they gave a nod.
Suddenly, I felt a slight pain in my head. I held my head in pain as it hurts. The pain was all too familiar. It's the same pain that keeps fueling my need to become a heartless monster. Right from my young age.
The pain subsided and I couldn't help but fall asleep again.
