I just want to say thanks to the people who like this story enough to have me continue. Lets find out where Alois is, shall we?
"Where's Alois? Where's my big brother?" Luka had asked in a very scarred voice, with a hint of anger, whether it was for himself or Alois Claude could not tell. The room froze looking from one another, the tension rising as nobody even attempted to answer the new demons question. During the silence Luka's confidence and anger seemed to grow "I want to know where my brother is." shock silence "NOW!" That renewed frustration seemed to jerk all of them out of shock, where it came from nobody could say.
Lilith walked forward to Luka using her motherly nature and soft cooing voice to not scare him back behind Hannah. "Luka where Alois is should not be your concern. You're too young to worry about anyone especially your big brother. Alois is more then capable to take care of himself." All the demons seemed to accept the answer out of respect and order of the queen, but Luka still huffed not being satisfied, still Luka did not push forward. "Elisia! come here and take little Luka here to the cafeteria to get him fattened up" Once Luka and Elisia were gone Lucifer closed the door looking towards Lilith to start the conversation. "Now that Luka is gone lets talk about Alois. He's gone" being speechless Claude and Hannah just waited for her to continue, confusion written all over their faces "When I say gone I mean completely gone from the world, ours and the humans, the angels have taken him before we could. I am so sorry but you two know best that we cannot go on the Angel's territory."
"Why in any of the worlds would the angels take Alois? I thought they only cared about the purest of pure souls and hearts?" The one to ask the question in everyone's mind was Claude, who was seemingly mad but kept up his emotionless façade. "And last time I checked Alois has a tainted soul, tainted being a huge understatement, his soul makes tainted seem godly." That comment made Hannah punch Claude with all her strength, earning a round of smirks and laughs.
"Maybe he had a broken soul but he had a big heart. What person who hated himself with every fiber in his whole body could love a person, no A DEMON, as Alois did you?" That, and nobody can deny, was a great question. Alois cared more about Claude then himself maybe even more then the world itself. Getting her an agreeing hum from the newly rearrived Luka, who made a beeline right back to Hannah after saying a small thank you to Elisia for the food.
Hannah's little testimony about Alois seemed to spark a light bulb in Lucifer's mind. "That's it! I can't believe they have one. AND more importantly that you gave one up." He hit Claude over the head " Alois doesn't have a broken soul, no he doesn't have a soul at all. When he gave his heart to Claude he also gave him his soul, figuratively of course, so initially the more he grew to love and depend on Claude the stronger his soul got. While on the outside it taste the same as a twisted and dark soul once you get the full meal it would taste even better then a pure one. These souls are the rarest of the rare, which is why most demons don't know about them. But the taste isn't the best part, the power is, once you turn the person into a demon or angel they become as strong as a full grown Demon and even stronger when they reach adult hood."
Lilith knew her children and guests were still a bit confused "They are referred to as renewed souls. One time long ago before Lucifer ruled the renewed ones were unappreciated after they were made to demons they were put on the lowest of ranks, really only used for fighting. Until they got tired of it and took over once they truly realized their great power. That's when the demon swords were made to kill them all off, only the renewed demons had the ability to destroy the swords, although they could die all the same. This war lasted for centuries and ended only when Lucifer snuck into the castle and killed the renewed king, after seizing the throne for himself he ordered all renewed demons to their death and in turn destroyed all the demon swords, but one. A similar thing happened to the Angles, except when their renewed angel took over they accepted it with honor and hope for their kind to take out the demons, so they try to find renewed souls while the demons tried to avoid them all these years."
Claude got worried at that and for once let his emotions reach his voice and light up his eyes "Does that mean you will not allow us to get back Alois." He knew there was a possibility that it would not happen but Claude felt he would do what ever it takes to make it possible, and he had a strange feeling he would not be alone, he knew Hannah would help as well as Ciel, that meaning Sebastian would also help whether he wanted to or not.
"No, we shall do what ever we can to get Alois back, maybe we wouldn't for anyone else, but the one who put his soul together was you, the one he loved was you. So we shall do everything in our power to help you" Lucifer answered. It was not an unknown fact that if there was one thing the king of hell hated more then angels it was if one, just one, demon in his family was hurting when he could help them. Answering the one obvious question of how they could get Alois back Lucifer stated that, "Angels and Demons are not that different except a couple of details; for example Angels don't take the souls until they reach adult hood, so they know if that angel is worth it or not. But there is a huge similarity we send our newborns to a 'camp' which is just a land full of obstacles that help them train, and what I thought was distasteful before is actually in our luck today, the Angels and Demons share this land, only separated by a line of magic and protection from the other. So just one question, Ciel Luka are you two ready for camp?"
