Hey, everyone. I'm back to updating this story. Thank you for waiting for me to write this chapter for all of you to read. I don't own the canon characters as they rightfully belong to their actual owners while I only own my OCs.
Warning: There will be child abuse and sexual harassment in this chapter.
The little bluish/greenish-haired boy coughed as the vomit on the floor was before him. His grandfather had made him and his brothers worked early this morning. However, he was far behind his brothers. His grandfather didn't look happy to see him on his knees while his brothers kept training.
"Now stand up. A full-blooded demon won't have mercy if they see you like this in a real fight, Hayate," His grandfather said sternly.
But Hayate could only cry since he was at his limit. His purple eyes were filled with tears. He wanted to stop and rest until his body was better again. Couldn't his grandfather have allowed him to stop training for an hour?
"Please stop pushing him hard, Father! He's only five years old!" A kind, gentle voice protests to the older man. It was his mother.
She ran to his side and placed her warm hands on his back. His sweet mother would always do this. Whenever he and his brothers had reached the limits of their training, their mother would run over to them and begged their grandfather to stop training them so hard and to remind him of their young age.
"He can take it! Stay out of the way!" His unkind grandfather shouted at his innocent mother, slapping her across her face.
Hearing that painful but familiar sound, Hayate turns to see that his beloved mother was slapped so hard she fell to her other side. He could see the bruise on her cheek. His brothers had stopped what they were doing to see their mother was stroked again by her own father.
"Mama?" All Hayate could even say.
However, their mother did nothing but lay there. Her platinum blonde hair had covered most of her beautiful face. Although their mother was kind and loving, she was still a fragile person. Despite her best to protect them from their grandfather and the other members of the church, she could only do so little to help them by herself. She curled up on the floor while her father simply ignored her and forced his grandsons to go back to training.
"Hey, Hayate, we're heading out to eat dinner. You coming?" His older brother, Itsuki, said to him.
Hayate was pulled out of his thoughts when his brother had called him. Shaking his head, the green-haired teenage boy cleared his head from that unhappy memory. He hated remembering that.
"Yeah, I'm coming, Itsuki," Hayate said.
Hayate and his twelve brothers had soon left their penthouse to go eat. They had just arrived in Japan from England yesterday. The brothers had managed to settle down at their new home. But they had their mission. To have their revenge on the people who're the reason their lives have been miserable since the day they were born.
And for this reason, their mother became so sad.
It wasn't long until the brothers were at a nice restaurant that wasn't fancy and was near their penthouse. Despite having a lot of money to eat a much fancier one, all thirteen of the brothers actually enjoy eating these types of restaurants. But this is very different from most others.
"Welcome to Moonlight. How can I help you?" A beautiful hostess said as she greeted the brothers when they entered the building.
"Yes. We'll like to set at your best table, please," Kaito said as he placed a golden coin on the host stand while fixing his black glasses with his fingers.
The hostess realized the coin and merely smiled at them.
"Please follow me, gentlemen," She said, leading to the backside of the restaurant.
The Moonlight restaurant had two different areas. The front of the restaurant looks like an ordinary one to some humans, but at the back was the one where demons eat there.
The hostess soon opens the door. Revealing many types of demons in the restaurant. Some were families enjoying the evening together. Some were friends just hanging out. Others were couples on dates. A few were businessmen and women discussing their companies.
"Please, enjoy your time at our restaurant," The hostess said kindly after giving them their table.
After the hostess left, the brothers began to look over the menu to see what was good to eat. While everyone was looking at the menu, Hayate was too busy thinking about that memory he had just back at the penthouse. He hates thinking about the past, especially when he and his brothers worked hard to escape from their grandfather when their mother could no longer protect them from the church.
"Hayate, did you make up your mind on what you're going to eat?" Haruto asked.
"Umm?"
Hayate again was pulled out of his thoughts when one of his older brothers had asked something. Seeing that their brother hasn't been paying attention lately, the other twelve brothers look at Hayate with concernedness. He may be the tenth son of their mother, but he's also the most fragile among them.
"Promise me you all look after each other," Their beloved mother once said to them before she was taken from them by their grandfather.
"What's gotten into you, Hayate? You haven't been paying attention to everyone," Sora said. He's the third son with reddish/brownish hair with green eyes with a beautiful mole under the right side of his lips.
"Sorry, guys. I've been just thinking about the past lately," Hayate said quietly. He's the tenth son with bluish/greenish hair and purple eyes with some green in them with his skin being extremely pale.
"You have nothing to feel sorry for, Hayate. It's still hard for us all to get over it," Riku said. He's the seventh son with blue hair and blue eyes.
"Have you been taking your medicine as the doctor said?" Kaito asked. He's the fifth son with purplish/blackish hair and red with black glasses over his eyes. "
"Dude, maybe you need to find a nice girlfriend like Mom," Nao said. He's the eighth son with blond hair and blue eyes.
"He needs to find a better way to cope with the past, Nao," Osamu said. He's the eleventh son with white hair with purplish/brownish tips at the bottom of his hair and golden eyes with a scarf coving his lower face.
"You know what Mom said, we all have to look out for each other. I mean, we only have each other now," Yuuto said. He's the sixth son with white hair and red eyes.
"We need to be strong like we promised ourselves when we became free from that old man," Tadao said. He's the ninth son with brown hair and brown eyes with some green in them. He's also the tallest among his brothers.
"We also have to remember why we're here again, guys. This isn't a vacation," Masaru said. He's the twelfth son with strawberry blond hair and golden eyes with plain glasses over them like his brother Kaito.
"Yeah, this is the only way peace could happen in the Human World," Touma said. He's the second son with purple hair and purple eyes.
"Mom always wanted a world where everyone could at least be respectful towards each other. But we all know that's never going to happen anyway," Asahi said. He's the thirteenth son with greyish/blackish hair and copper-red eyes.
"No matter how much we want to fulfill her wish, it's never going to happen," Haruto said. He's the fourth son with blond hair with some orange on top and sapphire blue eyes.
"We all agree that we'll rescue her from her past. That's our real first step from being free from all of this," Itsuki said. He's the first and eldest son with red hair and green.
After ordering their food, the brothers begin to chat among themselves. Everything they went through in their childhood, they went through together. They're brothers who had faced hardship and struggles. Their bond kept them from coming like full-blooded demons. They all favored their other side of themselves.
"Hey, sweetheart, why don't you stick around with us?" A raspy voice asked.
All the brothers turn to see a group of tengu harassing a female waitress. From her smell, she's a human. That was enough to boil their blood. They're always angry to see a group of male demons sexually harassing a female human.
"No thank you, sir. I really need to get back to work," She said as she tried to leave but was grabbed by the arm.
"No need to rush. Work can wait," The tengu that grabbed her arm said, pulling her to his lap.
And that was enough for the brothers to see. Quickly getting up from their table, some of the brothers went over to the tengu group.
"Come on. Let's have some fun," The tengu said, licking the poor girl's face, much to her disgust and discomfort.
Itsuki placed his hand on the tengu, causing the tengu to look over his shoulder.
"Excuse me, sir. But the lady says she needs to get back to work," He said.
The tengu became annoyed. This kid clearly didn't know who he and his friends are. However, he quickly smelled them. His face was changed from an annoyed look to a disgusting one.
"What you half-breeds think you're doing? Trying to act tough in front of us true demons, huh?" The tengu said.
Hearing their friend say 'half breeds', the other tengu began to smell them as well. They also became disgusted by finding that the boys were half-human.
"There's no way I'm eating at a place where half-breeds eat here," One said while leaving.
"I'm out of here, too," Another said.
"There's no way that I'm paying for a place where their kind goes here," Another said before leaving.
Seeing that his friends had left, the tengu knew he was going to make a scene if he didn't leave.
"Fine. You win this round, kid. But watch your back," He said before heading to the door while letting the human waitress go.
Seeing that she was free from the tengu's grip now, the girl turns to see the boy who saved her. She blushed when she saw him.
"Thank you for helping me. I'm sorry for causing trouble," She said as she bowed to Itsuki and his brothers.
"It's nothing. I just hate how some demons treat human women, that's all," Itsuki said.
The waitress had short brown hair and green eyes. She appeared to be around their age as well.
When their food was served and the brothers began to eat. The food was delicious. They were about to pay their bill, but they were surprised to find that it was already taken care of.
"Please think of this as our way of saying thank you for helping one of my employees," The manager who was an old man said kindly to them.
"It was nothing really. My brothers and I really hate when demons act that way towards humans," Nao said while blushing.
"Thank you again for helping me. I'm Nanami Nakamura," The waitress, Nanami, said smiling at them.
That's it for this chapter everyone. I hope you guys all like this. The brothers are actually in the Diabolik Lovers Fanon wiki. They're all not done. That was before I had my account. You can make the pages if you want. And yes, I was inspired by the early scene by a certain hero anime with a familiar fire and ice character who you know what I'm mean.
