Memories

(Childhood of the Gremory brothers)

"Brother you can do!" Shouts Sirzech as his brother attempts to summon his power of destruction.

Astral's muscles tighten and he grits his teeth as he attempts to summon his family's magic. However nothing ever came. His hands fall to his sides as Astral breath heavily.

"Why can I not bring forth my power? I have seen Sirzech do it an unprecedented number of times. He has even shown me how to do so." Astral says to himself through grit teeth and his head down.

Suddenly a hand falls on his shoulder and Astral's gaze shifts from the ground to upward. Looking up Astral sees Sirzech holding on his shoulder and smiling.

"Don't worry Astral you'll get it evenchly. Why don't we take a break." Sirzech tells his brother

Astral smiles. "Thank you brother. A break may prove beneficial for me." Astral says as he completely lifts his head andstands of straight.

"Sirzech how was you training?" Ask the father of the two boy.

"It was good. Mastery over the power of destruction is increasing day by day." Sirzech explians as he approaches his his father

"That's great son." Zeoticus says with a smile but once his gaze falls upon Astral his smile turns to a monotone face. "And what of your brother. Has he unlocked the power of destruction yet?"

"Well not yet but he hasn't given up yet and is trying his very hardest to unlock his gift." Sirzech defends his brother

"Is that true. Well anyway there are a few other high ranking devils here interested in meeting the next head of the Gremory clan. Why don't you come with me to say hi to them." Zeoticus says to his son as he tries to push him toward the door way.

"Wait I was." Sirzech begins but stops. Looking behind him he sees Astral smiling and has his hand up to inform his brother it's ok.

"Alright father." Sirzech says hiding his sorrow

"Great. Hurry now Sirzech. We don't wanna keep our guest waiting." Zeoticus tells his son as he begins to lead his to where ever the high class devils are.

As his father and brother disappear into the Gremory manor Astral's hand falls to the ground and his smile turns to a frown. With heavy eyes Astral walks away out of the garden.

(Scene change)

Astral sits at a desk in his family's library. His hand is on his cheek and his eyes fixed on the text of a book. Other books stand piled up high around him ranging from spell books, history books on past memebers of the Gremory family, and how to summon magic books. As he read a voice calls out.

"Thought I'd find you down here Astral. You always were the family bookworn." Sirzech says as he takes a seat next to Astral.

"Hello brother how was your meeting with the high class devils father had you meet?" Astral ask

"Boring. They just kept talking about how strong I'll be and if I'll marry their daughter." Sirzech complains. "I wish mother and father would let you come to them. At least then I wouldn't feel like I'll die of boredom."

A small chuckle escapes from Astral's mouth. "Once I unlock my powers of destruction I will accompany you to them all and keep you from dying of boredom." Astral smiles toward his brother

"So what are you reading?" Sirzech asks his brother

Putting down his book Astral looks at Sirzech. "Well I was just reading about how past members of the Gremory family unlocked their power of destruction. However now I am reading to in order to master other forms of magic while I wait to unlocks my power of destruction." Astral explians
