This... ah... Flash will... shock you guys. Be ready.


Pyro sneered happily into the glowing vial, considering all the possibilities he had to torture this little, innocent soul. There were so many... especially since it was, again, a very innocent soul. He could send in mental images of his brothers burning in hellfire, or he could pull it out and drag his claws against the boys spiritual image, or he could even force it to torture others itself. The possibilities seemed endless to the demon. And he loved it very much.

He hadn't tortured it at all in the last few days he'd had it because he wanted each and every amount of torture he gave it to be excruciating. To be some of the most horrific stuff imaginable. To be so horrible that when Bronze truly DID pass on, he'd be so broken and depressed, that he'd have no choice but to give up. To give in to whatever the demon wanted him to do. To even help him torture souls instead of being tortured himself. And Yuki would make sure Bronze would break in that since. After all, his beloved had already broken that wimpy vampire that got revived. Surely an animal-loving marshmallow would be a cake walk for her.

Pyro looked at the glimmering soul once more, tracing his claw gently along the glass, smirking brightly, wanting to get busy with his endless torment to the cute little child. But he knew he had to be smart about this. He needed to give the right amount of torture... and the right kind as well... again, this child had already proven he was tougher than he looked. If he messed up even slightly, then his plans would be ruined.

Perhaps he could have Yuki deal with it instead. She WAS right here with him in this room, and again, she broke the vampire before, and that vampire was almost as freaking stubborn as his brother. And yet she had him screaming and crying and just broken... until he was begging her to stop. Even being willing to do anything. Surely she'd be able to break this child like a twig. It would be child's play for her.

The sound of wings flapping filled the demons ears, causing him to smirk. He had a PRETTY good feeling he knew who that was. Turning, he was slightly surprised at how furious said angel was, but he DID grin widely at the fact the angel showed. Slowly he turned to face the angel, wrapping the soul vial around his neck (the vial was tied around a string).

" Well hello there mister sunshine. "

Pyro mocked, smiling wickedly as the other glared further. Suddenly Flash launched a bolt of lightning in his direction, Pyro barely able to dodge it in time. The hellfire turned to the other, finding his glare never faltering. It brought a cruel smile to his lips once more.

" I take it your in no mood for games then. "

" Give it back. "

Flash hissed, sending a soft chill down Pyro's spine. He never heard his brother speak this harshly, so it always frightened him when he did. Still, he didn't want Flash to ruin his plans, so he couldn't back down now just because his baby brother had decided to be intimidating.

" Give what back? "

Pyro said in a playful tone, enjoying pushing his brothers buttons. In truth, he probably shouldn't be doing that, but he couldn't resist either. Lightning began to take hold of Flash's body, causing Pyro to cringe a little.

" Don't you DARE play dumb. "

Flash spat, a golden glow surrounding his body. He was clearly upset.

Yuki saw this, biting her lip before slowly walking over to her husband, grabbing his shoulder.

" Be careful sweetie. I don't think Flash has the mental capability to deal with your mocking right now. "

Pyro nodded softly to Yuki, understanding her obvious concern. And it was well put as well. But he couldn't just give up either. He needed to keep this kids soul, and he couldn't be intimidated by his brother. Pyro placed a gentle hand down on the woman's shoulder before glaring back at Flash, the angel glaring as well.

" Just assume I AM dumb, Flashy. "

Pyro teased, raising an eyebrow.

" What ever do you mean? "

" GIVE BACK MY SONS SOUL, YOU MORON! "

Flash yelled, stomping his foot and sending electricity flying. Pyro jumped back a little, shocked horribly by this. He didn't think Flash would YELL at him, let alone call him a name or stomp lightning.

" I'M NOT PLAYING GAMES, PYRO! GIVE BRONZE HIS SOUL BACK! "

Yuki suddenly shrieked, covering her ears, her eyes beginning to bleed a bit. It took Pyro a moment to realize Flash was speaking in an angels true voice. He himself wasn't affected by an angels true voice, but he was worried about his wife. Looking forward, he was HORRIBLY shocked to find his brother shifting into his powerful state. His true state. His holy state. Multicolored wings, white hair with golden streaks, golden tail with sapphire spheres, the works. It was horrifying.

Flash suddenly lunged forward and attempted to rip the vial away. Pyro yelped, ducking and barely avoiding the swipe. Although, he DID get hit by the others excess lightning. This lightning BURNED his insides and sent him flying back, skidding him across the ground.

Pyro groaned, unable to move right away, feeling the lightning still shocking his system. It hurt. He could normally handle such holy lightning, but when it came from Flash well... it hurt him like his own hellfire would hurt Flash.

The demon groaned again, feeling a foot step down harshly on his chest and the vial being ripped away from his neck. He opened his eyes, watching Flash stare deep into the vial before popping off the lid. The glowing sphere flew up close to the angels face, Flash slowly lifting his hand under it, muttering something beneath his breath.

Little child

Go and return

To your rightful place

And make my son bright life burn

The small light suddenly flowed brighter before flying away from dark world.


Pyro growled slightly, slowly getting back to his feet, growling slightly at his brother.

" Alright, you got what you wanted. "

He hissed.

" Now go. "

Flash didn't budge. He didn't even flinch. He just stood frozen like a statue, glaring furiously and his fists shaking horribly. Pyro backed up a tiny bit, afraid of what was going on with his brother. He couldn't help it. Flash rarely showed any form of rage, so this one was terrifying.

" ... Erm... Flash? Go now? "

Without warning, lightning shot from Flash's hands, Pyro and Yuki BARELY dodging it in time.

Pyro turned to Flash, shocked beyond belief, finding Flash's eyes a solid gold, glaring at him and Yuki with such intensity... such hate and malice... Pyro immediately felt his blood grow cold. ' No... ' The demon mentally whispered. This wasn't good... Flash had...

More lightning shot from Flash, Pyro instantly flying high into the air to dodge, soon swooping down and picking up his wife bridal style, flying off at the speed of sound.

This hadn't been his plan... he didn't want to make one of the most powerful beings in the universe lose control of his powers...

Flash blinked dully before spreading his wings wide and flying out of the dark world.


Gold sat down in the corner of the room, sobbing quietly into his hands. Bronze was constantly shifting to try and get lose of his chains. Luckily those chains were meant for Bronzes creature powers, but it still tore the angel apart to think about how furious his brother had become.

The sound of a door squeaking could be heard, Gold snapping his head in the direction of the door. Septimus and Silver were coming downstairs, Septimus keeping his hand on Silvers shoulder as if to guide him. Gold quickly stood up to face them, tears still stinging his eyes. The pair of demons slowly walked over to him, Septimus turning to Bronze while Silver looked to Gold.

" Are you alright Silver? "

Gold asked softly, wiping his eyes dry and trying to keep his voice from breaking again.

" I'm fine. "

Silver answered quietly, wincing lightly as Gold lifted his hand. The angel eyed the stitches, lightly tracing his thumb over them.

" Does this hurt...? "

The demon shook his head, slowly taking his hand way.

" Nah. Really Gold, I'm fine. "

" G-guys-! "

The pair quickly turned to Septimus, finding the fire demon pointing at a small, glowing green light. They watched as this light flew circles around Bronze before seemingly forcing it's way down the child's throat. Bronze coughed and gagged a bit, his entire body glowing a very soft silver before it faded. The child went completely limp, his head hung so low his bangs slipped out from behind his ear and back over his right eye.

The trio quickly rushed over and knelt in front of the child, Septimus gently lifting up his chin. Bronze hummed, clenching his eyes shut before slowly opening them. The child slowly looked up at Septimus, his eyes suddenly growing sad and watery, scaring everyone greatly.

Gold and Silver turned to each other quickly before undoing the chains, Bronzes arms dropping to the side lifelessly, the child looking down and beginning to cry.

" ... I-I'm sorry... "

Bronze whispered quietly, covering his mouth with his hands.

" I-I s srry... I caus so mch pai a-an... I-I hert Siller a-an I- *sob* "

The brothers could tell Bronze had been hit with a great amount of guilt, as his speech had become impaired due to his crying. The three immediately wrapped their arms around him, knowing that Bronze must've still had a memory of everything he'd done when his soul was missing. It must be hurting his heart horribly... knowing all the things he'd done...


Awww... poor Bronze is feeling terrible... and Flash is going crazy! Goodness, things aren't looking good, are they?!
