Now don't get me wrong, I had my moments where I had happened to be kind, but being the eldest son of the great demon king Godric had its moments, everyone in the realm was absolutely terrified of me due to my striking resemblance towards my crappy father. I have five younger brothers and three younger sisters, Liv being the oldest sister, Faye being the second and Harley being the youngest of sisters, Byron was the second oldest, then Aidan, Hendrickson, bart and finally Ripley of the brothers - Byron was the eldest of the exception of myself.

See, This realm is incredibly boring. everyone has their assigned job, their personality and are so scared of my family that they avoid me, when all I want is to speak. I have a need: To go to another realm, preferably the human realm, I hear good things about their world.

Wandering through the castle, my hands tucked into my trouser pockets I look down at a little servant boy who's quivering like a newborn pup "I'm not King Godric.. I'm his son" I murmur knowing full well he mistakes me for my father "Dustin!" Speak of the devil, literally, I gesture for the servant to run into the closet near me, turning I look at my father "What's up, Bossman?" I ask, Hearing him growl he shakes his head "I heard you helped a family work today!" He growls, shrugging I breath "so?" I murmur closing my eyes I thrash violently when an agonising shock erupts throughout my body, falling to my knees I grip my side "watch yourself old man." I hiss, sweeping his feet before he could strike me again, he falls onto his back, turning on the ball of my foot I sprint down towards the realm quarters "Dustin!" He shouts from down the corridor, looking around I pass through the unknown portal.

Sitting up I look at the bright light coming from above me, wincing at the bright blue sky, a few puffs of white smoke scattered around in the air, shaking my head I place my hand on the floor, retracting back briefly at the feeling of something I can't quite comprehend "Hey there?" Looking up at a human, a Male wearing brown and carrying a wooden stick with a bit of wire attached "uh... hi?" I ask, looking around I look down at myself, my hair hidden by a cap I had been wearing in my previous realm "Are you okay son? You look terrified" he asks, shaking my head I stand uneasily, wobbling as I stare at the spiralling ground "Just... hit my head.." I mumble, turning I walk unsteadily down to what appears to be a village.

Looking around I fall into a random human "Oh I'm sorry I uh..." I say, looking at the red haired girl I shake my head "Watch where your going, kid." She scoffs before storming off, arching an eyebrow I cross my arms over my chest, turning around on the ball of my foot I walk casually over towards a building "how do you do good sir, fancy an enchanted weapon!?" He asks, arching an eyebrow I tilt my head "An enchanted weapon?" I ask, watching confusion wash over his face he tilts his head "We enchant weapons with special abilities such as fire, ice and such for those who are training to become Ukurokion Warriors" he explains, nodding I point to what appears to be a normal mainstream sword "can I just have one that's not enchanted.." I murmur, watching him nod uneasily he picks the silver Ridged pointy sword up and hands it over to me "that'll be 3,400 Okons" he smiles, reaching into my pocket I throw a bunch of coins into the table "these don't look like okons.." he inspects them closely "oh, no, they are Eranse, I found them on a dead demon from the demon realm, they are priceless in this realm." I shrug, walking away with the Silver Sword as the shopkeeper picks them up cautiously.

Stopping outside a large school on top of a floating hill after asking around for directions, I hold the sword tightly in my hand "I need to enchant this.." I murmur, looking down at the sword I walk somewhere quiet and isolated, placing my hand on the blade of the sword I draw some of my own blood, channeling my demonic powers, bright purple bursts from the sword, it's blades changing to a black and purple colour "there, I'll call you... Nyx" I smile, sheathing the blade I walk towards the bridge leading to the school. 

Knocking gently on the 'headmasters' door it immediately opens "can I help you!?" A tall pale man with long black hair which came down to his knees asks, wearing a bright abstract suit he tilts his head "hey... I'm Dusty, the exchange student?" I say, watching interest wash over his face immediately he nods "well, hello there dusty..." he says my name with a long pause before clearing his throat "I'm headmaster Fernandez, if you would follow me to the examination room" he asks, nodding I trail behind him cautiously.

Unsheathing Nyx I look around at the monsters that are walking towards me, holding the sword close to me I lower my voice "Let's go" I grit my teeth, dashing towards the monsters, the black and purple flames cuts straight through the monster, dark purple blood splattering all across the room, I sweep under the next monster, yelling at the top of my lungs after the monster goes to strike me it flies across the room into a wall, jumping I clench the leathered handle of my sword tightly piercing the sword into the last monster's underbelly "Die..." I breath, the flames intensifying drastically, jumping back I sheath Nyx in its scabbard on my holster on my hip, Hearing headmaster Fernandez clap I watch him smile "Well done dusty, that's quite the spectacular sword you have there..." he says with a glint in his eye, walking towards him I rest my hand on the hilt of the sword.

Walking into the first class of the next day, eyes are immediately placed on me "okay..  class, please welcome , Dustin.. how do you pronounce this?" He asks, walking over to him I look over his shoulder "shiró." I say with ease, watching the teacher point to a seat at the far corner , walking over I sit down casually, looking around my eyes land on the same vermillion red haired girl from earlier "Theory today is about the class A demon weapons, also known as the rare six" the teacher begins, shaking my head I sigh.

Walking through the doors to a large room I look at a tall brown haired man "Welcome Mr. Shiró, this is Physical combat, now considering the terms of it being a new season, we will be showing how our weapons have improved. As always, first we have Charlie" he says pointing to a black haired Male, small for his age "sure, we all know I have the best." He shrugs with a grin as he walks up "That's false" looking behind me at the red head who's gripping her silver katana tightly "shut it, Kaya." He scoffs, swinging a pair of three-parted nunchucks around, a glowing green aura emerges, he strikes the ground and parts of the earth split upwards "well, nice new move Charles." The teacher smirks, pointing at a few other students until he finally points at me.

Standing I unsheathed my ridged sword "Wow, his sword is purple and black..." Someone gasps, closing my eyes I feel a black and purple aura begin to surround my entire form, the embodiment of power spiking up around my body "What's happening?" Someone asks, waving my sword upwards the black and purple flames whip against the wall beside me, a huge crack runs through the ground and wall, Closing my eyes at the mutters and murmurs of the class, I look up as the headmaster walks in "As wonderful as your powers are Dustin, please refrain from wrecking my school. Now if you don't mind I'd like to speak to you privately" He asks, swallowing a lump in my throat I walk out of the door "what do you think your doing" looking at Fernandez, he furrows his brows as he folds his arms over his chest, confusion spreading across my face "What do you mean?" I ask, looking down at my hands he leans against a nearby wall "its not everyday the eldest son of King Godric waltzes through the gateway into Ukuroko. And into my school for that matter." He says enthusiastically, clenching my jaw I feel my fangs pierce my inner lip gently "look, the fangs... the tail..that's allowed, but no one, not even whoever becomes your best buddy can know about those black and purple inhuman flames, and the whole daddy thing that stays hidden Satan spawn." He says seriously, nodding I sigh "yes.. sir" I murmur turning on the ball of my foot.

Standing in the doorway of the 'dorm-room' the headmaster had given me, I look around at the empty room "Howdy!" Jolting I turn around and look at a tall brown haired boy, he wore glasses and wore the uniform perfectly "Who are you?" I murmur, his eyebrow arching "Magnus Yale, Ukurokion warrior, Top class." he smiles slightly, nodding I look around "where is everyone?" I ask, watching him tilt his head "master Fernandez asked me personally to be your room mate but refrained from telling me why no other students are allowed to live in this building" he shrugs walking past me into the room he throws his bags on to the bed on the right "it's great to meet you roomie" he smiles waving his hand, I clench my jaw "Yeah, you too.." I murmur closing the door with my heel.
