Amaimons pov.

He looked up at me confused on why I said that. The dead look in his eyes made me feel sick. It was like all his life had just. Just gone.

3rd person.
"Why would you be sorry?" Rin questioned. Amaimons head was racing with thought 'should I lie' 'it's all my fault' I'm an idiot' 'im the reason h-' He was brought back to reality with Rin clearing his throat. In doing so he coughed up blood.

"I'm sorry because I don't like seeing you like This" he finally decided to give half of the truth. Although he could tell Rin wasn't listening. He was to focused on some thing behind Amaimon.

Slowly Amaimon turned to look behind him. There stood Satan.

Amaimon pov
It was Satan. I let out a breath I didn't know I was holding. However Rins eyes were still glued to Satan.

"My,My,My. What happened here?"
He began walking towards us.
"Amaimon. What happened to him?"
I remembered Rin was behind me and panicked. If Satan found out Rin did that himself he  would believe Rin is weak.
All weak demons must die. Meaning Rin would be killed. I can't let that happen. Not after what he's been through. What i caused.

" He tried to fight an elder demon. Not realising what he was doing he  got hurt as you can see. "

Satan stood right by me. Over towering me. "I see. Well get him to the castle and help clean him up. Understand?"

"Yes."

I took hold of Rin and began walking to the castle.

"Amaimon?... why did you apologise?"
He looked up at me with dead eyes and all the guilt washed over me again. "Um..  I just apologised because I don't like seeing you like that."
Again that wasn't completely the truth but it wasn't a complete lie either.

~~~~~~time skip to castle~~~~~~~~~~~
We finally reached the castle, Rin still looking dead and me still full of guilt.

"Isn't that Rin?"
"The lords son isn't It?"
"What happened to him?"
" is he dead??"
   Whispers filled the corridors as we made our way to a spare room. Being Satan's castle there are many many rooms. I always found it pointless just for one being to have so many rooms.
I sat Rin on the bed and he began coughing like crazy. Blood going every where. He was getting weaker by the second.

I summoned one of the maids and told them to fetch water , a flannel , a bucket and to make it quick.
Instantly she was back and I began cleaning Rins wounds. He winced at the pain but nothing else.

~~~after helping Rin and wounds~~~
"How are you feeling Rin?"
Silence.
"Rin?"
Silence.
"Rin!?"
I turned to see him asleep on the bed snoring. He looked a bit better not being  covered in blood and all but he was too skinny. Way too skinny.

I was about to walk away when I heard fidgeting behind me. Rin was  screaming silently with years running down his face. Blue flames erupted and filled the room. All I could do was stand there.

Sorry it's short but the next chapter will be a lot longer. It will also explain what Elder demons are.
