The Demonic Twins
A young woman lay on a hospital bed and had recently given birth. Her name was Sheila. She had a husband called Sparda. But Sparda had left her many years ago. Shortly after she was pregnant, Sparda had to go on a crusade to South America. He was ambushed and killed. But Sheila was grateful for her two children. She had just given birth to two twins. They were identical. The doctor gave Shelia her two babies covered in white blankets. Sheila smiled as she put them on the same bed in a small corner beside her. They were so cute. They both had a small puff of hair on their heads. Their hair was white like their father's. But one thing they would have to learn to deal with would be their demonic heritage.
Seven years passed and Sheila took good care of her children. One of the twins was called Virgil, and the other was called Dante. It was six o' clock in the farm where they lived in. Sheila decided it was time to let the children know about their demonic blood. So she called them to join her in the living room. They sat on the sofa facing the firewood in front of them. Sheila sat in the middle of the brothers hugging both of them.
"What is it mom?" Virgil asked his mother.
"I have something to tell you boys" Sheila told her children.
"What?" Dante asked.
"It's about your father and your heritage" Sheila told them.
"I told you what happened to your father before you were born" she said.
"Yeah..." Virgil remarked.
"Well, your father wasn't any ordinary person" Sheila admitted.
"He wasn't?" Dante asked his beloved mother.
"No, he wasn't...he was a demon" Sheila explained.
She had trouble telling their seven-year old children that their own father was a demon. Demons were hated everywhere. They represented evil and destruction. And Sheila took her children to church every Sunday, so they were related to that subject. They knew demons were horrible creatures from Hell.
"What!? But wasn't he a good man!?" Dante questioned.
"He was a good demon" Sheila kept explaining.
"He fought a devil emperor who wanted to rule the Human World" she added.
"Oh" Virgil commented.
"And then he came to the Human World to make sure it remained in peace" Sheila continued.
"Did that crusade in which he die involve demons?" Virgil asked his mother. Sheila nodded in reply.
"Cool!" Dante exclaimed excitedly.
"And you are half-demons" Sheila admitted.
"Whoa!" Virgil and Dante both exclaimed together.
"And I have not yet seen your demonic abilities, I'm not even certain if you have any" Sheila explained.
"Let's see if we have any Virgil!" Dante exclaimed getting up from the sofa.
"No no Dante, I don't want you to try anything dangerous" Sheila ordered Dante.
Dante groaned in disappointment.
"Don't worry Dante, I'm sure we'll find out someday" Virgil assured his brother.
"Go on and finish your homework boys" Sheila pleaded the twins who were now off the sofa. "Yes mom" Dante said.
They both went upstairs to their room to finish their homework. Their peaceful life would soon make a drastic change and become a horrible life for both of them. Neither Sheila, Virgil, nor Dante knew. In fact, Sheila wasn't going to live long enough to see this tale end.
