I was inspired by a few writers on here; I guess you can say they are my muse's. I love their stories featuring Finn's demon so I've decided to try my hand at it. This is loosely based on greek/Irish mythology that I tied together to form the foundation of this story. I did my homework for this story plus I'm a mythology fanatic as well. The following superstars that appear in this story are the sole property of the WWE/NXT brand. Exception is any OC featured throughout this story and plot which I own.

Kronos the pure blood son of Uranus; led a revolt eons ago overthrowing his father. He banished his father from Olympus while naming himself the king of the heavens. History managed to repeat itself many years later in the Great War of the Titans. The Titan King Kronos was over thrown by his own children. They imprisoned there father with the rest of the now fallen titans in Tartarus. After eons of solitude his youngest son Zeus granted him his freedom and made him the ruler of the underworld alongside his son Hades. Kronos decided to bide his time while he set his plan in motion to escape. With the help of the Cyclops he broke free from the underworld where he hid on a small island known today as Ireland.
Vowing revenged against his own children and their bloodline, he created from himself with the aid of the cyclops a new race of beings called The Fomorians. They were a race of supernatural beings led by a one eyed demon king known as Balor. He was described by those who lived to tell, a giant who had one eye located on his forehead that had to be covered by seven cloths.
Kronos using the last of his strength transferred half his power into Balor as he gave his final command for The Fomorians to attack Olympus; before falling into his death like sleep. He promised if The Fomorians were successful in there ventures they would all be handsomely rewarded in return.
At the end of the second war on Olympus, The Fomorians stood victorious as all of Kronos's children were captured and imprisoned in Tartarus next to the Titans they previously imprisoned there. Balor took the infamous Epirus Bow firing it at the Titan's cages in doing so he freed them. Kronos's immortal children were sentence to fight the Titan's in Tartarus for all eternity.
The one eyed demon king returned home victorious, upon fulfilling Kronos's wishes Balor was handsomely rewarded. He was given a deity of extreme beauty that he mated with; in return she bore him a daughter who he named Ethniu. She was as equally if not more beautiful than her mother who died in childbirth. News spread of Ethniu's beauty across the island which found suitors coming from all over to catch a glimpse of the immortal being born from Balor.
A hunter/warrior by the name of Finn MacCool stumbled upon Ethniu by accident in the surrounding forest he was exploring. Immediately Finn was mesmerized by her beauty and thought her a goddess at first sight. Secretly the two began seeing each other till one day her father caught her in a compromising position with the mortal human.
Balor locked Ethniu away from the world as he sent his men to kill Finn who managed to escape vowing to return for her. A few months later he showed up with an army and attacked The Fomorians head on. Blood soaked the earth as the rivers turned red from those slain; on the last day of battle Finn MacCool defeated Balor decapitating him. He freed his love only to discover she was heavy with his child.
Fearing for his love and unborn child he sent her to the island of Hy-Brasil known as the phantom island that only appeared every 7 years. He was a marked man for slaying the demon king and wouldn't risk their lives so he decided to send them away. The day the island appeared he kissed her softly while rubbing her stomach knowing that he would never see his son brought into this world. He lied to Ethniu telling her that he would see her in 7 years before placing her on the boat. Finn gave her one last kiss before the boat drifted out to sea disappearing once it hit the mist.
Ethniu gave birth to a son; she named him Finn Balor a few months after she arrived on the island. As the years passed she watched Finn grow noticing that he was starting to display his demon powers when he wasn't aware of it. Some of the kids on the island teased Finn and called him names; it pained her to see her son cry at night. Ethniu struggled with herself on a daily basis rather or not to tell Finn what he was let alone who he was.
If others were to find out that he was the grandson of the late Balor he would for sure be put to death. She feared that Kronos would come looking for him to use him to unleash havoc on to the mortal world. No matter how much she wanted to deny it her son was now the future demon king.
When the seventh year came and the island appeared to the mortal world and army of creatures as well as mortal man attacked the island in search of Ethniu and the prince of demons. Ethniu hid Finn in some bushes just as a cyclops grabbed her and carried her to the mortal leader. Finn watched in horror as his mom was burned alive in front of his eyes.
Wishing to avenge his mother Finn felt his skin start to prickle as it slowly started to heat up like he was burning from the inside out; he felt the center of his back throb as a searing pain ripped through him. He took the tatted material off as the cool air seemed to burn his skin. He felt his body start to tingle as his heart rapidly started beating to the point he thought it would explode. His skin began changing colors going from a tan color to black with patches of red; his arms were lined with deep red markings that looked like veins.
The ground began to shake around him as he saw black mist forming around him; he dropped to his knees as a searing pain rip from his back as something burst forth. Finn felt himself slipping in and out of consciousness as he felt a presence trying to take over his body. A voice spoke to him. "Do not fear me Finn, for I am your inner demon you have summoned." Finn looked around seeing no one as the voice laughed. "Relinquish control so we can avenge your mother."
Last thing Finn remembered was walking up to the army his body pulsating, arms slightly extended from his sides, his fingers locked in a gripping position as he closed in on the army. He saw the fear in the mortal's eyes as the creatures rushed him. He heard a roar in his head as he saw the army disintegrate to ash before everything went black.
Finn woke up in a small hut wrapped in oversized leaves, a young woman greeted him telling him she found him by the ocean and brought him back to her hut. Finn tried to recall what happen but drew a blank. Deep down he knew he wasn't alone something else was residing in him what he didn't know. He heard a deep dark laugh in his head as the entity said the name Demon King. Finn looked down at his hands seeing blood; he started screaming as the young woman was now an old lady laughing evilly.

Finn shot up out of bed drenched in sweat gasping. He threw the covers off him as he got out of bed walking towards the bathroom. He splashed cold water on his face grabbing the hand towel patting his face dry. He looked in the mirror seeing his eyes were black the iris's a bluish white. He closed his eyes shaking his head before opening them again seeing his normal azure ones. "Is there a reason why you're tormenting me with my past" Finn asked aloud as he stared at his reflection. He let out a loud sigh as he turned off the bathroom light heading back to bed, as he settled in he heard his inner demon speak 'Kronos has officially awaken from his death sleep, he's searching for you Finn.' The voice in his head finally replied back.
"I'm supposed to be scared of an immortal that's been irrelevant for over a millennia" Finn stated to the voice unimpressed by the news. 'Heed my warning prince Kronos has set his plan in motion, he wants back what you were born with.' The voice warned as Finn let a small snort out. "Oh yea, and what might that be" He asked as he turned over on his side fluffing his pillow up. When the voice went silent in his head he closed his eyes. 'He wants me my prince; for I am the last of his creations he needs to break free from his prison so he can unleash hell on earth.' The voice stated as Finn's eyes snapped opened. "Let him come for me then, I've always wanted to meet my great grandfather." Finn said through a grin.
