The Demon's Heir

by Germanhowl

"He will show his demon side later in life." That's what Sebastian said to Ronald 19 years ago. At 19 years old, Anthony Spears had finished his reaper training and still has no clue of his demon side. That was until a certain raven came and whispered it to him. The squeal to "The Demon's Mark"

The Demon's Heir Chapter 3

Anthony's eyes widened. He swung his sickle and cut across Sebastian's chest, causing the demon's record to spill out. He saw the silver record play out the raven's life throughout the nineteen years.

"He was watching me? The whole time he was…."Anthony thought as one piece stood out.

He saw Sebastian leaning over a wooden crib. His pink eyes glowing as he looked down at a sleeping baby. Anthony stumbled back. He knew that child. It was him.

Sebastian smiled at him.

"You don't believe me? Yet I remember you reapers saying that the record never lies." The demon said as he stepped closer to Anthony.

Anthony gripped his scythe by his side. He wanted to kill him but his body frozen in place. His eyes were locked on Sebastian's.

"H-How? There's no way you're my father. My father is-"

"William T. Spears." Sebastian ended Anthony's sentence for him with a hiss.

The raven shook his head.

"Your mother never told you. He was afraid that you would discover your demon side and William knew that you would at a point." Sebastian explained.

The young reaper back away, until he stumbled back and fell. His eyes still locked on the raven.

"N-Not true…" Anthony murmured.

Sebastian loomed over him. Anthony closed his eyes and waited for the demon to kill him, but then he heard the familiar sound of a scythe extending and plowing into the road.

"Are you details so low now a days that you're threatening our recruits?"

Anthony recognized the voice as his father's.

Sebastian gave William a wicked grin.

"I believe my work here is done." He said before vanishing.

Will sighed before leaping down to his son's side.

"Are you alright, Anthony?" the oxford haired reaper asked as he retracted his scythe to it's original size.

"W-Why?" Anthony stuttered as he looked up at his father.

His gazed softened but he still was shaking up over the demon attack.

William sighed.

"Finish your assignment then head home. We need to talk."

Anthony opened his mouth to protest his father's request but before he could William disappeared. The young trainee was puzzled. He taught that the record never lies, yet what he just saw was the record of a demon claiming to be his father. So many questions fill his head at once.

"If the record never lies, then what exactly am I….?" Anthony wondered.
