Although it was nine months ago, Lily could still remember the weekend she had with the demon...the same weekend she became pregnant.

Flashback...

California, Saturday, October 3rd, 1:30pm...

It was a very quiet day for Lily Evans,(soon to be Lily Potter), she was enjoying a small vacation in California to be away from family and friends before she would return to England, and the Wizarding World, to marry James, the Potter heir. She spent some time in America to study Psychology, this would help later on determine if something was upsetting her child or if she could find ways to help Dumbledore, mainly because the Wizarding War had opened just a week ago.

As she sat in her apartment chair sipping a hot cup of tea, while on the way thinking of what she should write in her journal, she literally had no idea she was being watched by someone who would cause a large impact on her life...the demon from the center of the earth, Nergal.

The demon set his eyes on the woman, not only because he liked her attractiveness, but also because she looked very lonely.

If only he had control of his urges, the following actions would never happen...

"So, I see a woman who wants some love, eh? Well, I suppose another woman could be a friend of mine!" He hissed, tapping some buttons, "How about it, Lily? Will you at all settle for me?" He said, with eyes that combined with evil and happiness, but the evil was the one that shined the most.

Lily enjoyed her tea and looked out her apartment window. It was a cloudy day, although the sun was trying its best to peak out and show some light to the entire city of Los Angeles.

She was about to get ready to head out her apartment to visit some more of the city, this was her last day and tomorrow, she would have to return to England, especially since the wedding was going to happen on Monday, which she considered ironic because Mondays are usually the most unluckiest days of everyone's life.

She was just about to enter her car, when the ground below her shook like as if someone was shaking a tree, before moments later, a standard family car, (with a drill), emerged from the ground. She was very confused of what she saw, but the thing that did catch her eye was the figure who emerged from the car.

The figure itself wasn't human, no trace of it in sight, it only looked like something from fiction or even from the deepest levels of the Wizarding World. The nonhuman figure was dressed in a business suit that was black and black with a red shirt underneath. The figure itself was entirely black, like if jet black hair grew a shaved body.

The figure then turned to look at her, and in his eyes, looked liked someone who he just wanted to spend some time with, even though his face looked like he found a lost soul. Speaking of the figure's eyes, the eyes were lime green, the type of green that would never be considered human, followed by fang-shaped teeth, that had the color of yellow, the yellow you'd see if someone didn't brush their teeth a lot, but that wasn't because he didn't brush.

The figure, despite being not human at all, spoke with a human voice that sounded pleasant, yet mysterious. "Ahh, another beautiful day of Los Angeles." He said, stretching, before turning his attention to the woman, "Hello there, what's your name?", he asked, even though he secretly already knew.

Lily was somewhat suspicious of the figure, but could see the best of everyone, so she answered truthfully, "Hello, I'm Lily.".

The figure smiled, "Lily? Sounds like my roses after I put them in a vase filled with fresh water." he said cheerfully, although to Lily that did sound a little creepy. "I'm Nergal", the figure returned, almost forgetting in the first place.

Lily started having some trust in this demon even though he did seem a little creepy, "Hello Nergal, how come you came from underneath the surface? That's not a common thing for a human being to do."

Nergal was taken aback by the question, but still chose to answer in a cool but nervous voice, "Well, if you didn't know already, I'm from the center of the earth. That's why my car has a large drill on it, because it helps me get to places.", Lily upon hearing that felt like any minute if she could just urinate her pants in laughter, she would. But something in the figure's facial language told her that he wasn't the joker type for a man, rather a man who had a lust for love and company.

"Alright, I trust you. But why are you here?" Lily asked, now putting her mind on why a demon would just come over here and talk to her. She felt like she should run away, but something about this demon-like man made her want to stay and listen.

"Well," Nergal said, his nervousness starting to kick in almost immediately, "I j-just w-w-wanted someone t-to ac-ac-accompany me for the weekend." He needed a lot of strength in order to talk to this woman, but he felt like he wasn't going to manage to get her to spend time with him, and the large loneliness that he was suffering would only continue, and that gap would never be fulfilled. "I'm sorry." he replied with a weak voice, before he started to open the door to his car.

Lily then rushed up to him, surprised by her own actions, but it didn't matter, something about this demon made her want to comfort him. "Nergal, wait." she responded, making it the only thing to cause Nergal to stop and turn at her...tears running down in failure.

"N-Nergal, I-I'll accompany you." She continued, surprised by how well she meant it. She REALLY did want to comfort Nergal, even if that time was short.

Nergal's eyes glittered and widened, feeling like he was finally going to get peace afterall. "Really? You want to spend time with me?", he didn't just ask this because of the fact he was a demon, but it was also because this was a person he was only going to be with for a certain amount of time.

"Sure, I'll then have someone to keep me company and make things a little more interesting." Lily wasn't lying about that sentence, she spent most of the time doing things she'd commonly do such as visit various landmarks of the city, especially a private garden, but with nobody present with her, the visits just felt a little flat.

Nergal's eyes brightened in joy, he wasn't going to be alone after all, "Great, where should we go first?"

They first went to the cinema, and saw a comedy flick, they laughed so hard when the profanity was just becoming insane. This was when Nergal knew Lily wouldn't get away from him. Heck, they even had 2 aisles of seats just for the two of them.

They then went to have a late lunch at Benson's Burgers. While there however, a thug came in and pushed Nergal over when they were waiting for their table.

"Get the fuck out of my way wimp!" the big man said. He was Hispanic, a ponytail for his curly black hair, had a strong and lean body, and if looks could kill, his eyes would be the Reaper's scythe. He was dressed in a yellow t-shirt with black shorts that seemed to look like they were falling down, with extremely worn out sneakers. He looked at the waiters and said "Table for one, and make it fucking quick!"

Nergal got up and coughed into his sleeve, "Why don't you leave these people alone, tough guy?!" he said, unknowingly challenging the huge thug.

The man turned to him and spat, "What did you say, nigga?" he threatened.

The huge man was already was starting to make Nergal, "I told you to leave these people alone."

This was soon followed by a massive argument which only made things worse.

"You know weirdo you're being very rude!"

"Oh, so the one who's threatening people isn't the one who's being rude, but the one who's standing up to some big ass thug is!"

"Yes!"

"Home boy, you're just a big fool who thinks the capital of the west is his own playground!"

"Pfft, nigga, get out of my face! You're just gonna lose your girl and be a lonely freak!"

The man had said what few words could say to this demon that will anger him more than seeing a bowl of onions...that really, lonely soul, and the fact he mentioned that really, really hateful and despising word...Freak.

Nergal in anger than grew a tentacle straight out of his back, before he wrapped it around the thug and started electrocuting him.

Once everyone heard the noise of electrocution and turned, everyone started to panic and run out of the resturant, leaving the food they once ordered behind.

Lily saw what Nergal was doing and started freaking out, "Nergal stop it! You're only doing what he's saying!"

Lily's voice was the only one in which allowed Nergal to snap out of his violence. He was angry, but he was smart enough to know that he was hurting someone, and was going to commit a murder, even if the man was someone he hated.

Nergal finally stopped pumping electricity into his tentacles and dropped the man.

Shortly afterwards, the waiters asked them for their orders, and told them that because of Nergal's actions, their food be would made to go.

Lily was extremely furious with what her new friend had done, and she was going to have a talk with him once they entered her apartment.

Nergal on the other hand, felt extremely ashamed. He not only felt like he made an embarrassment towards his son, but also caused his weekend that was going just fine to be a train-wreck.

Once they entered the apartment building, Lily snapped, "Nergal, what the hell were you doing?!" she barked.

Nergal knew this was going downhill, and he started to cry, "I'm sorry for fucking up, Lily."

"Oh really? An apology's not going to stop a lawsuit from being placed on you, does it?"

"I know."

"The hell you do, it will actually happen once you're arrested for attempted murder. You were lucky the people at the resturant were nice enough NOT to put you in jail."

"They did it because they're afraid of me! Because I'm a demon who gets pissed off whenever I hear the word 'Freak'." His tears still shedding out.

"But why the fuck would you do that?"

"Because I told you before I got pissed off with the man when he mentioned the word 'Freak', because it's so hateful, and it's a word that sends anger down my spine. I wish I didn't do it, but he pissed me off so much that it felt like he didn't deserve mercy." his tears were fading away, but the emotion did not, "If I could go back in time and stop myself, I would do it. I was just angry over his actions and words." he sighed, and Lily was finally starting to understand where he was coming from, hey she saw it herself, she wasn't blind.

Lily took a deep breath and spoke with a calm voice.

"Nergal, I'm disappointed in you, but I still love you. I'm glad you stood up to yourself, that's something a coward would never do, even a loner. Especially since the dude at the place shoved you, and he could've broken your jaw because you fell face-forward or even if he punched you. And the police most likely won't find you because people who grow tentacles out of their backs sounds like a fantasy and...just unreal and also because it was only one count. But you can't go around electrocuting people because they hurt your feelings, because that would show your a sensitive person. And I know you're not that, because I see the best in everyone." she said, finally taking her grudge, well most of it, off her chest. "You know what I see the best in you though?" she asked.

Nergal's eyes widened with surprise, at first he was scared because he believed he would forever be alone, and Lily would get away from him, but now this might be some time to make up for what he had done. "What's that?" he replied with some nervousness.

Lily had a small smile, "I see you as a loving and caring man who tries his hardest to make people glad for what they got. Sure, you can have some jealousy, but you tried not to show it."

Nergal widened his eyes even more. She literally meant it. She really did see him as a very caring person.

"W-w-well, thank you, Lily. I don't know what to say." he said with extreme fear.

"How about we eat and take a walk and then for the night have a drink and talk?" she planned.

Nergal liked it, "That sounds great.", he wanted to make plans of his own, but he got so afraid with what he'd done that he was certain Lily would leave him almost immediately.

They took a nice walk in the park. By now, it was becoming late, like 6 o'clock at night. But it didn't matter, as long as he had Lily by his side and had a friend, that's all that mattered to Nergal.

Many people who saw the couple were confused and freaked out. Confused because Lily was known in the Wizarding World to soon be married to James, and freaked out because the person she was with wasn't human, and was responsible for the incident at Benson's Burgers that never got reported, because police believed it to be false, and there was little evidence besides the burn marks that this happened.

Two friends saw the couple, "Is that Lily and her husband?" asked one.

"I don't think so. He's not human." said the other. Because of suspicion, the two decided to follow them.

Lily while at the start, talked about her time in California, "I took a little break from family and friends, and see what America looked like, mostly because I went here to go to University after I graduated from Howarts. Tomorrow I'm going back to England to marry James Potter, who I met back when I was a student. I didn't like him at first because he was a bully and was hexing people for fun. It wasn't until his final year that he grew out of it, that it caused me to actually like him."

Nergal was a bit shaken down when he heard that. The woman he was with was going to get married, and he already was married. He felt ashamed, but he chose not to let the time waste, because this felt like the loophole in order for him to not feel lonely.

"I once actually zapped everybody in my hometown of Endsville because the Grim Reaper was forced to befriend two children, so I got the idea that all the good things in life must be taken by force, and I made everyone my friend by zapping them. And at first, it was great, I had all the friends I wanted, and I wasn't alone. Sadly, though, after a while, it got tiring, and I restored everyone back to what they originally were." He replied, not afraid to speak of what he had to say. Hey, she already saw him unleash his tentacles on people and electrocute a man, and she was from the Wizarding World which had goblins and items that could talk as well with things called "Dementors", so it sounded pretty sane to tell her.

And to his surprise, he was right. But she did seem a little surprised herself. She saw goblins and had owls to communicate, but she never saw something like the Grim Reaper. "Oh, so you did have friends, you just got tired of it? Huh, I guess we all need a break from friends sometimes, even if the friends really do want to visit or if you're sick." Lily responded.

It was just then that they heard a twig snap behind them. They turned, and two guys were standing behind them, having suspicious looks. The two of them were white, the one on the left had blue eyes, the other had brown ones. The left man was 6 feet tall, only 1 foot taller than Nergal himself, while the right was only 5'10. The one on the left was wearing a fleece jacket with jeans and black shoes, while the one on the right wore a fedora, a coat, and sweatpants with boots.

The 6 foot man spoke up, "Hello sir, are you James Potter?" he asked, very certain the answer was no.

Nergal once he heard the question knew the gig was now up...someone had caught him, but he couldn't let Lily get away from. "Why do you want to know, so you can steal the woman I'm friends with away to bone?" he snarled, even though he didn't give Lily any communication besides their voices.

The fedora man held his hands up, which only fanned Nergal's suspicions and anger. "Relax sir, we just want to know who you really are."

Although he was angry, Nergal responded, "No, I'm Nergal. I'm from the center of the earth."

The two men deep down laughed at that, but they had to make sure they could get Lily out of this 'man's' clutches.

"Well sir, I just wanted to let you know, Lily Evans is going back to England to marry...James Potter."

That did hurt Nergal unfortunately, because not only was he married himself, but also because they would get the idea that they were cheating on each other's spouses. Fortunately, his marriage was kept a secret, only the people of Endsville knew.

Trying to maintain confidence, Nergal responded smoothly, "So?".

"Well, sir, you know that basically she's going to have to England and marry another man, right?"

Nergal's anger was still there, but confusion was mixing in with it. "So because I'm a dude that I can't hang out with another woman?"

"No, I'm just saying, you look like you're dating this woman when she's actually engaged. I know she's visiting America, but this entire thing just feels like...an...an affair."

Nergal's eyes glowed red. He wasn't cheating on his wife at all, he was just hanging out with another female friend. They never kissed, they never had sex, they were just spending time together. Sadly, the man's words would become true, and this would cause his own marriage to tumble.

Lily, who got tired of listening to the theory, spoke up. "Oh, stop, sir. There's nothing wrong with hanging out with another person of the opposite sex."

"But we're not saying it's wrong. We're just saying...you look at this man like he's the man of your dreams instead of the man you want to be in marriage. Like people would be going towards you and saying, 'Oh look, Lily Potter is cheating on her husband, this needs to go on TMZ.'" said the tall man.

"It's not like that. We just happen to spend some time together, like a few friends who want to make up for lost time. Strange coincidence, yes, but that's what it really is. A coincidence." Lily pointed out.

The two men had now began to understand she wasn't under Nergal's control, who was keeping quiet because if anything came out of his mouth, it would just be a battle cry.

"Well...alright. We're sorry for that." the man on the right replied. And with that, the two men left.

Nergal blinked. He didn't need to stand up, Lily took care of it. "Dang, I didn't know women could manage to be selfless and stand up." he said, with pride.

"I've been filled with standing up to myself since I was a little girl." she said cheekfully.

Nergal chuckled, "Yeah.", it was then he remembered what time it was. "Well, I think I should return home. It's late." He started to walk away, "Thank you Lily, thanks for being such a really great friend. It was nice to see a face like yours."

Deep down, Lily was feeling extremely rich, "Wait," she whispered, a few meters away from Nergal's ear, "Why don't you spend the night in my apartment? I won't be minded by having a roomate in my apartment." she paused a moment and giggled. Unknown to her, these words would cause her to conceive her only son.

Nergal looked with the big eyes that she saw in the afternoon, "Really? But I should just go back home-", Lily interrupted him with a hug, followed by a small peck on the cheek.

Lily then looked at him with puppy dog-eyes, "Come on, before you need to leave for real?" she asked with a gentle whimp.

Nergal, obviously, gave into his hormones, "Alright. But I need to make sure my car is locked, because I left it unlocked to begin with." It was then he realized about the car. "Wait a minute...the car. THE CAR!" He screamed, and off he ran, Lily following him towards the condo.

Nergal ran towards the area where he parked the car. Thankfully, the car was still where it last was, and in perfect condition. However, on the windshield, was a letter, which was later revealed to be a ticket.

Nergal face-palmed himself. He already was afraid of the police catching him for his attempted murder. Now, he had a parking ticket attached straight to his own car. If his luck could get any worse, he would already be sitting in the police station, where his ass would be declared that he's sent to a mental institution because he would be declared insane due to his confession of him being a demon from the center of the earth, and the confession because of his attempted murder being that he electrocuted someone with snake-like tentacles. The only place that would declare him sane would be Endsville, and that was because so much strange shit has went into the town's history, that it's used to it.

Nergal felt like tearing up again until a gentle hand touched his back. He turned and saw Lily, a little bit out of breath.

"Lily, what have I done?" he said, starting to tear up again, "I just got a ticket. And I was so close to being left alone from the police too."

Lily comforted him, "Hey, don't worry. I'll pay for it. I know it's odd to find a car in the middle of the ground, but you don't deserve any stress."

They went to the police station and payed it off. They promised the police department that the car would soon be out of the ground by the next few days. "You better get it out, or it's towed out." the police chief said. But he saw the man leaving and pointed out, "Hey, haven't I heard from you? You're the one who electrocuted that illegal at Benson's Burgers." Nergal was afraid of being caught again, but Lily took care of it, "No chief, you got the wrong man."

Using Lily's car that they used throughout the day, they returned back to her condo.

"Thank you Lily for paying that off. I was afraid that they were gonna arrest me." Nergal squeaked happily.

"Don't worry about it Nergal. Come on, let's go to my apartment for a drink." she requested. And it all began with alcoholism.

Once in Lily's tiny apartment, she opened up the fridge to reveal bottles of wine.

They shared 2 bottles of wine...before that was the last of what Nergal could remember...

California, Sunday, October 4th, 4am...

At early dawn, Nergal woke up to the smell of alcohol, and of course...some strange smell of sex.

His vision was repaired thanks to the alcoholism wearing off, and he saw which he never saw in his entire life...

Nergal had vaginal sex with Lily...

Nergal couldn't believe what he had done...he did what the two men predicted...he had an affair with another woman...

"What the fuck have I done? WHAT. THE. FUCK. HAVE. I. DONE?!" he screamed, also waking up Lily.

In no time stat, Nergal dressed himself, before rushing out the door, not hearing Lily's pleas to return and tell him she wanted it. He quickly ran to his car, and drove off, to return to his home. He would never hear from or see Lily again.

He parked the car into the garage after 5 minutes of just driving towards his home. He tried to pretend nothing had happened, but now he felt extremely heartbroken.

He rushed from the garage to the bedroom, and placed his hands on his eyes. He had no memory of having sex with Lily, but it was most likely he did because the smell was present, and he woke up to find his dick in her whispering eye.

But there was now no denial...Nergal had sex with another woman...

For the rest of Sunday, Nergal just sat on his bed, feeling both exhilarated and ashamed. Exhilarated because he fulfilled his wish of not wanting to be alone, but ashamed because he already had a wife, and he now had cheated on her. He was angry that Sis left that it made him feel like she abandoned him, yes, but until she met Nergal, Sis was unhappy and was childless.

It wasn't until Sis, as well with their son, Junior had come home that he tried to pretend nothing had happened. He chose to try to take the subject off his mind, and proceeded to make conversation in order to keep it that way, and to help make sure to not expose his true feelings.

"Hey honey, how was your time in Alaska?" he first asked Sis.

"It was cold, Nergal, but I had a good time. I went hiking quite a lot, and there were a ton of animals to see, especially it was interesting to watch the grizzly bears catch the fish, almost like if he was going to get it." she responded with a cheerful, yet still raspy voice.

Nergal then turned to his son, Junior. He had pale skin, jet black hair, his eyes, and his fangs, dressed in black winter gear, except his hat and his scarf, both of which were red.

"Son." he exclaimed, embracing his son.

"Uh, dad. You're crushing me a little."

"Oh, sorry about that." he responded, making his hold a little more gentle.

He let go of his son, and looked at him, "Son, did you have a nice time at Winter Camp? Did you make any friends?" he asked with extreme glee.

Junior smiled a little, "Well, I did befriend this boy named Billy, dad." his voice was mysterious, yet predatory.

"Ah, your cousin. That sounds great.

Junior raised an eyebrow. "My cousin, dad?"

Nergal shook his head to wipe his creepy smile away, "Yes son, Billy is your cousin from your mother, you know, you're related because of marriage."

"Oh." said the younger demon. He had no idea Billy was his cousin until his dad actually told him. It must've been because they barely looked alike. Despite his befriending of Billy, Junior told nothing else of the time at the camp. If he did, his father would explode with rage because although he wanted his son to have friends, he didn't want him to freeze his "friends" into snowmen.

Thanks to the conversations, Nergal managed to move on. His family is what mattered to him, they were his friends, even through marriage. He seemed to have everything he wanted. He had a son who had friends, a wife that was beautiful, and a cozy home to have his family in.

However...there was one thing that nobody knew that Nergal had repressed...and that was his affair to Lily Evans, who that night, married James Potter...despite the affair, Nergal brushed it off, because he believed nothing would come back to haunt him.

However...what he didn't know thanks to Lily's decision not to tell him, although a reason could be was because he gave her no contact info, and it would take a ridiculous amount of time to reach the center of the earth, Nergal had gotten Lily pregnant...although the child would still be considered James'.

It feels like Nergal would never meet his second son during his childhood or even at all for that matter because Lily chose James didn't need to know that the child wasn't his, and everything would just go perfectly normal...

However...2 homicides and 2 years of abuse before a discovery would be made, would lead...straight to Nergal's own door...and when that happens...the Boy-Who-Lived would finally be revealed.
