Chaos Falls: The Demon Returns

Coming of Age

(Sorry it's sort, Ive been rather busy and may still be for a while. I'm aleays working in this story, so I should have more chapters out soon.)

After the long awaited return of the King and Queen had finaly come. The two seemed quite content from their time away, and very rekindled in their affections for eachother. The king and queen behaved just like they did before everything changed.

"It's good to be home." Dipper sighed after they finished unpacking, plopping on the love seat.

"Don't tell me your tired already. We still have dinner and to tell our children of the sights." Bill joked.

"Hopefully you mean the landscapes of the worlds we visited and nothing more." The queen said, opening one eye.

"If I mentioned that I'd just be reminding them of how beautiful you are."

The two shared a quick kiss before agreeing to head to dinner early to see their children.

"Good afternoon my children!" Bill grinned as the heirs came in around the proper time.

The youngsters all embraced their parents before sitting back down to enjoy their meal with their parents like the old times.

"Father, how did you survive that fight, and why didn't you tell bbn us you were Rilic Bephil? Mother said that in the aftermath there was nothing of you left." Billie asked, his siblings agreeing.

"It's quite the miracle of what can happen if you know the right words, children. And I doubt our subject's would react lightly to hearing of my return, so my true identity will always be our secret. Let them believe what they like. But enough about me. What have my darling's been doing while I was gone? Have you all kept up with your studies?" Bill explained with his usual smile, perking more when the conversation fell on the note of their whereabouts.

"Yes father. Mother made sure we didn't slack in our practices." Vill nodded, his siblings agreeing.

"Wonderful!" Bill smiled, clapping his hands together.
"Then I suppose it's time I taught you all some new tricks."

"What kind of new tricks Papa?" Orion asked, confused.

"Well, you're all getting older, and soon the first coronation will be upon us. The first seven of you will be given your full status of heirs, and will then begin your preperation for having a hand in politics and relations with subjects, and running the kingdom. But all that will come as we go. The fact is, as your father it is my resposibility to properly teach you all the things your mother cannot. And I beleive it's time I began these lessons with some of you." Bill explained.

The heirs looked to eachother with looks that showed mixed feelings. They understood their fathers words, but felt a little bad hearing them. None of them let them weigh their spirits down too low though.
In the days after those words were shared, the first seven born found themselves learning much more complex magic, and harsher combative practice. In the rough lessons between Bill and his children they would never hurt one another, and would always obey certain limits. But to describe the intensity of the practice would be to call it a 'a logic defying extreme'. Then again, a magic battle was just that to any normal human being, or any race thats never heard of or seen magic for that matter. Needless to say, the seven heirs were becoming exactly as Bill wished. Hardend, battle capable heirs who could protect themselves, and anyone they so wished. The training didn't affect their presonalites or behaviors, but it was noteable that Billie and Nyla did show a higher sense to the familiar weight of reaposibility.
