Belmont and his ex-wife, Stephanie were at each other's throats, and the divorce between them was probably very ugly. They continued glaring at each other and Stephanie said: "where there is a will, there's a way, Seymour."

"Yes, but I have more privilege than you do, Stephanie. You will not win against me in court. Never had, and never will." Said Belmont

Growling, Stephanie gritted her teeth and said: "good day to you. And please be nice to Tyler. He is the best thing to ever happen to me,"

"To us, you mean." Her ex-husband corrected her. "Tyler is my son too."

"yes but you always try to force him to try and follow God, including making him listen to many hymns."

"Out of pure love." Belmont pointed. "I do it all out of love, even if it doesn't look like it."

"Look, I need to go help Alan with the garden."

"Tell him that I said hello."

"Yeah yeah, I will." Stephanie rolled her eyes before walking away and getting back into her car.

"Pfft, unfaithful strumpet." Mr Belmont muttered under his breath before heading back inside. There he saw his son standing still in front of Adam and Lute, who were still sitting down in the dining room table.

"Dad?" Said Tyler, "who are they?"

"Oh, son, meet Adam and Lute, they are angels sent down from Heaven."

"Angels?" Said Tyler. "They don't look like demons."

"I know, it's the horns and most people don't depict us angels with horns, kiddo." Said Adam. "But yeah, we are angels."

"Allow me to introduce Fletus, Robert, Dennis, and Paulo."

"Howdy." Said Fletus.

"And these two agents are known as Agent One and Two." Belmont concluded.

"Dad, what's going on here?"

"Tyler, this might be a little bit for you to take in, but I will explain to you what is going on." He cleared his throat and sat his son down in the couch. "Now Tyler, this might be a little hard to believe for you at first, but your best friend, Cody Laurent, is the Antichrist."

His son didn't know what that meant. "The what?"

"The Antichrist." His father repeated. "He is the worst enemy of all mankind, and he is set to bring doom, eternal hell, and omen for us all. He is the son of Satan, the king of Hell and leader of all demons and fallen angels."

"What?" Tyler said. "That's stupid. Cody the one that will end the world? That is the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard."

"Look, Tyler, Cody was the one that caused his own house to burn down in the first place. It was caused by his evil, unholy powers. And we have to deal with him before he grows even stronger."

This was all so much for Tyler to take in, and he said: "dad, there's no way Cody could have started a fire like that. I have known him since kindergarten and he would never do that. Besides, if he was that son of Satan, then maybe he would use it for good and not evil."

"Hah!" Belmont scoffed

"A good demon? A good Antichrist? Very inconvenient. There is no such thing as a good demon or devil, Tyler. I have told you that time and time again."

"Just take it from me, kiddo." Said Adam, stepping up to help his new human friend. "Cody is the son of Satan. Believe me. If you won't listen to your daddy, then listen to me at least."
