"Traitor? Yes, perhaps."
"Wha—?! No, Father!" Red Son spluttered, both confused and horrified at the accusation.
"SILENCE!!" The bull demon roared. "YOU THOUGHT YOU COULD DECEIVE ME?! STAND AGAINST ME?!!"
The instant his father pulled back his fist, Red Son immediately shut his eyes and braced himself for the blow.
A second later, a wave of heat blasted in front of him.
Startled, he opened his eyes to see Ember emerging from her blue flames. DBK roared again as he stumbled back, shocked by the sudden intervention.
Flames still rippled around Ember. At first, Red Son was confused. But then he saw her clenched fists, and took notice of the angry hisses with each deep breath she took.
Ember was furious.
"Hello, father," she said with zero amusement. "You're quite different from the last time we met."
Her tone made Red Son's eyes widen. He's only witnessed Ember truly angry only twice in all his centuries of living.
"Unfilial daughter!" Their father yelled. "You dare show your face here?! I should strike you down where you stand!!"
"Yeah?!" She shouted right back. "Well, then, bastard of a father, come on!! I don't care what you do to me anymore!!!"
Red Son stood there, staring at his twin in disbelief. What in the Three Realms was she...?
~~~
Ember was tired. Sick and tired. At first, she just wanted to try and talk it out with her family. But when she arrived just in time to see their father shouting at Red Son, about to strike him... that struck a nerve.
No one was ever, ever going to raise a hand to her twin. Not while she was living and breathing.
As she moved in between the two, her headache began. The angrier she felt, the worse it got. And at that moment, her head was absolutely pounding. But she stood her ground. She screamed at her father, not even caring about the words that left her lips.
Let him strike her down. Let her be pounded into the ground, her spirit and bones broken. It's not like she wasn't used to the feeling mentally.
But attempt to strike down her sibling, and there would be hell to pay.
She barely even registered her father's enraged roar, nor the fist that aimed to strike her down, most likely for good.
"EMBER, MOVE!!"
Red Son wrapped his arms around her, yanking her out of harm's way. Just as he did so, their mother also conveniently appeared, blocking the strike with her fan.
"Come to your senses!" She shouted, and for a split second Ember couldn't tell if her mother was talking to her or DBK.
"This power has poisoned your mind!"
Definitely their dad.
"ANOTHER TRAITOR IN MY MIDST!" He replied.
"I do not want to hurt you." PIF said.
DBK let out a laugh. A cruel, sinister laugh. "As if you could!!!"
Husband and wife suddenly were engaged in battle. While that was going on, Red Son turned his attention to Ember, who was staring at their parents' battle with wide eyes.
"Ember—!"
"...What's wrong with dad?"
Red Son was temporarily taken aback. "What...?"
