WELCOME back to The Summoned Prince, and this is the third chapter. That's right the third chapter. Everyone who is reading this, I am so happy that you are using your precious time to read my story. I hope all you reader's days have been going well, and if you need to talk to me about something do it. However, I am a boy so I can't help with a lot of things. Anyway, this chapter is going to be entirely based in Gehenna. The chapter starts right after Rin reappears in Gehenna. I hope you all enjoy, and without further adieu let us begin!

(PS: Super sorry about the charter being late.)

(PS2: This will be part one of a 2 or 3 part arc in my story.)

Disclaimer: I don't own Blue Exorcist. Obviously

Rin's POV

I opened my eyes to the familiar sight of the black grass that covered vast quantities of the ground in Gehenna. I looked around me to find out exactly where I was. I was surrounded by nothing(italics(So much better than the blue sky of Assiah.))I thought to myself. The only illuminating feature of Gehenna's darkness was the white sun searing my eyes. I brought my head back down and began to continue to look around. Still lost in my surroundings, I stood up, and used my inner flames to focus my vision. From years of practice, I learned to shift my fire to enhance any of my natural abilities. When they were focused in my eyes I could see hundreds of miles away from me. I could see that in the distance there was a mountain range in front of me, and behind me, a thick forest.

I sighed, it would be such a pain to walk that far. Or….

I spread two large blue wings made the my satanic flames. They sprouted from my back, through my shirt. The massive wings were over half my size, extremely intimidating and strong, holding immense power within them.

The fiery wings began to flap, and I could feel the contact between my shoes and the grass became less and less. Eventually, I was high into the air, and I was finally given a good view of the area. I looked around at my surroundings and I finally knew where I was.

And it was bad

I realized that I was in a very dangerous place. A Sky Whale resting ground, one of the few left in all of Gehenna. Sky Whales are demons that somewhat resemble a whale from Assiah. However, Sky Whales are much larger than any whale found in Assiah.

Egyn said that one Sky Whale could hold a blue whale in its mouth, and the blue whale would be able to do circles inside the it's mouth. Unlike whales from Assiah, Sky Whales have white skin that is extremely thick, horns above their 3 eyes on both sides, multiple blowholes around their body, razor-sharp teeth, and varying magical abilities.

Sky Whales are very elusive, and they are hardly ever seen. It is even rarer for one to go to Assiah, and the last time one did it caused massive tsunamis throughout Assiah. To be honest, exorcists probably don't even know they exist anymore. Sky Whales fall into the S class of demons. Anyway, I did not want to be caught by one in their resting grounds. I began to fly towards the forest. Flying through the air always gave me a sense of freedom.

I made it to the forest in plenty of time, landing with a satisfying crunch of the grass under my shoes. The flames dissipated from my back, and I began to walk deeper into the forest. It was filled with low-class demons doing their own things. Still, I could tell this specific area was located in Beelzebub's territory. I could tell this because the majority of the demons here were insect-based demons, and this whole area had the scent of Beelzebub.

I continued to walk, and as I did I brought my black tail out from inside my jeans. It wagged back and forth as I sensed where I was. I sighed wondering how the hell did I get here anyway. I thought I would be transported back to my palace when I was released back to Gehenna. Since I didn't have the means to answer any of my questions I decided I would head towards Tartarus. Which is the center of all Gehenna, and is where my father resides. Also, I needed to go there because I had to inform father about me being summoned.

However, I did not feel like walking all the way there as Beelzebub's territory is in the outer regions of Gehenna. So I walked over to one of the shadows of the many trees. I planted myself there, and I began activating Shadow jump, one of my Demon King powers. Along with my flames, as a Demon King I also had control over shadows and darkness. Being the King of Shadows definitely has its perks.

Once the ability was activated I sank into the shadows. It was like my body was being covered in a cold cloak, and I was surrounded by darkness. I then visualized my personal penthouse that was located in the castle at the center of Tartarus. Once I had my destination the darkness around me faded away, and I was left standing in the shadows of my room. I opened my eyes, to make sure I was in the right place.

I turned to head back and forth so that I could scan the room. My bed was in the same place, my posters of famous demons which were mostly my family were still on my wall, and my other things were in their normal area. I sighed happily that my Shadow jump sent me to the right place. After I was done congratulating myself I went to the door. As I opened it there was no sound. I looked out into the hallway craning my neck to make sure no one was in the hall. Once I made sure the coast was clear I came out the room and turned to the left towards the throne room where father normally was.

The halls of the castle always made me feel like I was surrounded by darkness. All the hallways were made of black obsidian blocks, and they had portraits portraying demon glory. I sighed as I remembered all the years of my childhood.

I was only 13 years old, but I resembled the body of a 1-year-old in Assiah. I would crawl around my private chambers, with no control over my flames. The only ones who could touch me where my dad, and my brother Iblis. Since dad couldn't always watch me Iblis would normally hold and feed me. He always had warm eyes for me, and he had a strong protectiveness for me. I would always try and burn him, but since my flames at that age were only so hot they couldn't penetrate his own flames.

My mind left my memories, and I focused back on going to father. I marched down the hall like a proud prince. Then as I was turning the corner I collided with the most annoying of my brothers. The demon king of Rot, Astroth. The moment we collided we both fell to the ground with a loud thud. Our faces stared at each other, and we were both giving each other angry faces. He spoke first and said, "watch where you're going ya Damned brat."

I retorted by saying, "Why should I move for a rotten corpse."

He stood up, smirked, and said, "Because unlike you I was born from Noble demon blood on both sides. You, however, were born from a w*** who disappeared ages ago."

I glared at him, gritting my teeth, anger, and venom in my voice. Everyone knows not to mention my mother around me. I yelled said, "DON't YOU EVER TALK ABOUT MY MOTHER."

Astroth looked me square in the eyes and said, "Yeah and why not. It's not like your going to do anything."I grit my teeth, and my fist clenched which drew blood from my palms.

"Ah is the baby getting mad? Does he wanna fight?"He sneered, looking amused at my anger.

Before I could think about it my demonic impulses kicked in and I said, "definitely!"

(3-minute time skip. Astroth and Rin have Now moved to one of the many courtyards inside the castle.)

Even though I knew I really didn't have time to deal with Astroth I just couldn't control my anger, and I wouldn't be satisfied until he was begging. It is a known fact that Astroth is the weakest of us, and he knows it too. He never learns from the many beatings he takes, and this wouldn't be his first from me. So here we were staring daggers at each other. There was a tense pause, and then Astroth struck. From the palm of his hand came a dark miasma, and he threw it at me. I easily dodged it. Astroth put his hands to the ground and rotted vines from the ground before him.

The vines sprung like black snakes slithering through the air and aiming right for me.

I was not worried, and with a flick of my hand, I incinerated all the vines with my blue flames. Then I sent my other hand out, and from each of the fingers shot blast of blue flames. However, Astaroth then puts both his hands up, and a wall of pulsing mushrooms shot out from the ground. The mushrooms blocked my flames resulting in a spiral of blue flames to form in front of Astaroth. Then Astroth Put his hands to the ground and out came an explosion of dark purple miasma that looked like a giant wave.

The miasma flew towards me, but before it could hit me I surrounded myself in a black sphere made of shadows. The sphere and I withstood the Miasma attack which could melt stone. I've seen it do that before. I stayed in the orb for a little while longer to let the Miasma dissipate. Then I Shadow jumped and traveled to a shadow I had seen that came from a wall behind Astroth. The moment I appeared there Astroth sensed my Presence.

He turned his head to me, and I could clearly see he was snarling like a rabid dog. I smirked at him making sure I showed him how my body wasn't even close to being tired. Astaroth bared his teeth at me, and he began to transform into his full demon form. In his full form, he looks like a stereotypical Demon he gets goat-like characteristics like having rounded horns and standing on two goat-like lower limbs. He becomes bigger, his skin turning a dark red color, with sharp deadly claws, his horns become much bigger, his eyes turn completely red, and his teeth become battered. He only uses this form when he's really mad.

In a deep voice, he said, "Now then little Rin I shall tear you limb from limb."

I smirked as now my victory was assured. Whenever he goes in that form he loses all reason, and that was not what he needed at this time, what he needed was a strategy. Astroth charged at me, and with impressive strength, he swung his fist down upon me. I dodged the attack, but the force of him hitting the ground was enough to send me flying backward. The impact created an instant dust cloud, and a crack spreading on the ground and bringing down prices of the wall surrounding the courtyard, and it made the whole lower part of the castle shake. All that happened while I was flying in the air so I did a few turns, and I gracefully landed on my feet kicking up no dust. I could see Astaroth's blood red eyes looking at me from inside the huge dust cloud he had created. I knew what was coming next as Astroth opened his mouth, and out came a blast of dark miasma. I easily dodged the blast, and it collided with the castle's wall. A ginormous hole instantly formed on the wall.

Then Astroth charged at me with incredible speed as he was looking to crush me at this point. The moment his fist got close I materialized my sword Kurikara in my hand. With one swipe I sliced through Astaroth's fist. However, I kept going, and I went up to and completely bisected Astaroth's right arm. He howled in pain as the bottom portion of his arm fell off, and hit the ground with a nasty splat. The remaining upper portion of his arm began to leak massive amounts of crimson blood, and he continued to yell, in both pain and furry. Astroth was too proud to give up, so he used his left hand to try and hit me. I smirked as brought my sword up, and drove it right through his fist, and into his arm. At that moment I ignited my sword with my blue flames, and the flames burnt Astaroth's arm to a crisp from the inside out. Astroth let out an ear-piercing scream and fell to the ground where he landed on his butt with a loud thud.
"Still want to fight me?! BROTHER!" I mocked him.

Astaroth's pain filled screams rang throughout the whole castle. At this point, I could sense that father's guards were rushing to the courtyard so I had to finish this quickly. I looked Astroth in the eyes, and I could see the hated literally seething out of him. If his eyes could kill, I would have died a long time ago.

With no mercy, I plunged my sword into his right leg, and I did the same thing I did with his left arm. He screamed so loud even sirens would be jealous. But this was for me, I loved this. The sound of tortured screams, and now all I wanted was to make Astroth beg at my feet. I let my demonic nature take over, and it was sure to get everything it wanted.

So I began to cut him all over his body over and over. Cut after cut after cut. I kept cutting splattering Astaroth's blood all over the place turning the once black grass into a sea of red. I was having so much fun trying to get Astroth to say it. I wanted him to cry mercy and to beg for my forgiveness. Even though Astroth was the weakest of the demon kings he was still a very proud demon, and would not just simply succumb to me. So I began to intensify the torture with adding my blue flames in the mix. Now every time I cut him the same spot would burn to a midnight black.

By this time the palace guards had already made it to the courtyard, but they would not interfere. They knew this was a common thing to happen to anyone who lost a fight, and it was demon custom that no one intervenes until one of the fighters admit defeat. All the guards dispersed and headed back to their positions, and they left me to my fun.

After a good hundred or two hundred cuts Astroth finally admitted defeat. He said, "Please no more I give, I give." However, by this time he was mostly just a slab of meat that barely had any shape. Maybe I went a bit too far because now this will take a good few months to fully heal. I then said, "Don't EVER talk about my mother or you're gonna need more than a new body next time." With that, I stood up, and I made Kurikara disappear. I was about to turn around when all of a sudden I felt a chill on my hands, and I began to sweat. I had forgotten to inform father about my arrival, and I had forgotten to tell him I had been to Assiah. He doesn't like for any of his sons to leave Gheanna unless they inform him first. I turned around, and I have met the sight of the devil himself literally.

Father otherwise known as Satan was about a full foot taller than me. He has long silky white hair that goes to his waist. Two black horns on his head that are about six inches. He has pale skin, red and blue eyes, and fangs. His hands have black fingernails which can sharpen at his will. He was wearing a long flowing black robe that opened at the waist to go back behind his legs and lay on the ground. His legs were covered with black pants, and he was wearing shiny black shoes.

I gave the father a nervous smile as he looked at me with his own sinister smile. Father then said, "well well well look who decided to come to the castle. I don't remember summoning you, so what is it you want." I could easily tell that father already knew, but he wanted me to say it first."

"Father I know that you don't like it for your children to leave Gehenna, but I can explain myself."

"Can you now?"

"You see I went to Assiah because someone actually said my summon, and I wanted to know who the person is. Also, I figured that if I went to Assiah then could get some information to could be essential for the annihilation of the humans!"

He gave me a skeptical look, and said, "Do I look like a clown."

I shakily said, "No sir."

Father shook his head and said, "Then don't try to fool me. I was living before you, or any of your brothers were even around. Still…." Father paused, thinking, "having another spy in Assiah couldn't hurt. I suppose I will allow you do as you wish for a while. It might actually be interesting. As long as you don't get in any of my plans then you are free to do what you wish. Anyway, we have more important things to deal with right now. I was going to summon you here today anyway because today tomorrow we are having a war meeting."

I was astounded at the words that he just said. I then began to speak, "but, but father you have never tried to coordinate the demons before. All you ever do is let our forces run wild, and destroy things at their own leisure."

"That is true my son, but I am growing tired of these humans and besides I need something to do. Anyway, you are to be here at the castle tomorrow when the sun is at its highest. Iblis, Beelzebub, Amaimon, and as you already know Astroth are already here as well."

"Yes, father." With that father stepped away from me, and it seemed as though he just noticed Astaroth's brutally destroyed body."

He said, "Rin try not to fight any of your other brothers. I don't need any damage to the castle right now. " With that father's body combusted into his blue flames, and he was gone. I sighed releasing a breath that I didn't know I was holding. Father really has gotten softer. Centuries ago he probably would have beaten me to a pulp right there, but he didn't. Lucky me. I took one last look at Astaroth's main body, and I could tell that his soul was already leaving to find a new host. The body would probably disappear soon. I sighed and walked back into the interior of the castle. There was no reason for me to go back to my own castle, so I'll just stay here until tomorrow.

I turned to the right and began to walk aimlessly through the castle. Eventually, I found myself in the royal gardens. The gardens spanned 42 kilometers(26 miles). They were one of the 13 wonders of Gehenna. It is wide and opens going far back, the area on the far left slopes gently down to a cosmic-blue river. A copse blood flick tree pines flank me on one side, with a thicket of peaceful birches standing guard on the other. skull trees run through the center of the garden, casting a lake of claw shadows onto the grass. In the autumn years, the fiery brilliance of their leaves is a sight scorching-reds, burning-yellows and molten-reds. Then they drift to the ground as silently and carelessly as an ash cloud, settling into their eternal rest.

Past the river, there is a plush-green meadow which stretches away into the vastness and a dragon-backed mountain. In winter, the stricken loneliness of its peak sends shivers down my spine, wondering how anything could survive up there. The fog that coils around it seems as old and grey as the mountain itself. The gardens were truly a sight to behold that most demons never get a chance to see. The gardens are mostly tended by Amaimon and Beelzebub. I wonder which one is here today.

I stepped into the garden and took a strong sniff of the air. Once I did I caught the scent of Beelzebub.

It seems that he is here today, and was deep inside the garden. Beelzebub is the prankster of our family, and he normally spent most of his time pranking everyone besides our dad. He's a lot of fun to hang out with. I took another sniff so I could get a better location on Beelzebub. Once I sniffed I could tell his general location, and I began to sprint through the garden to him. Being a demon and all sprinting a few miles isn't much, and I made it to Beelzebub's location.

He was in one of the Mongolian spike ball trees. It's a tree with a hard black bark and lots of tiny branches filled with red leaves. On those leaves, some bear spike ball fruit which is black with red spikes sticking out of them.

Beelzebub was laying on of the longer branches, and he seemed to be reading a book. Beelzebub had vibrant shamrock-colored hair that was slicked back to just above the neck. His skin was youthful as he resembled a 16-year-old in Assiah. His eyes were also shamrock-colored, and his ears were very pointy. He was wearing a basic black vest with gold designs on it, but he didn't button it. He had a green bow tie and a white button-up shirt. He was wearing long cargo pants and black shoes. He also had his green tail wrapped around his waist.

As I got closer he turned his head towards me and gave me a big smile. I smiled back at him and waved my hand to come down. With one quick motion, Beelzebub wrapped his tail around the tree branch and swung off it like a monkey would. He landed with a soft thud and turned to his face to me. He had an innocent look that was not befitting that of demons. Beelzebub walked up to me and in his casual voice he said, " Hi Rin how's it going?"

"Fine so far. How about you?"

"Well to be honest it's quite boring. There hasn't been much to do in my kingdom, and there isn't really anything for me to do in Assiah."

"Well, you could always hang out with me."

"I guess so. Anyway, I heard you were summoned." When finishing his sentence Beelzebub let a sly smile creep upon his face, and I could feel the heat rising in my face. For someone of an S or higher class to summon it is supposed to be outright embarrassing.

"Well, I thought why not go check up on Assiah. It had been a good 300 years since my last visit, and I thought I could get some info for father."

"Really because you know I can sense that there is something you're hiding from me. If I had to make a guess I would say that you found something that personally interested you!"

With him saying that I began to faintly hear my inner voice saying, "Shiemi."

I was about to reply to him, but he spoke first and said, "well it really doesn't matter to me all that much. I don't care what you do."

"I bet that's why father doesn't trust you with anything serious!" That struck a nerve, and I could physically see Beelzebub's face tighten.

He said, "That's not true. Father trust me with lots of things. I always host all the public events for Gehenna like the Blood Festival(Gehenna's equivalent to Halloween), and I am on the war council!"

I smirked, and said, "Well obviously all of the Royal children are on the council, and you hardly ever show up for those meetings."

At this point, Beelzebub was embarrassed and he said, "Yeah Yeah. Anyway, what you want to do."

I smiled as our previous subject was dropped. I thought for a second and said, "wanna go mess with Iblis."

Beelzebub let out a huge grin, and said, "Of course!"

AN: Thank you for reading this chapter, and I am so so so sorry for it being so late. I try to make the chapters at least 3500 words each. Anyway like I said there will be another 1 or 2 chapter after this just based in Gehenna. Also, remember I am always here to talk if you need me. Finally please leave your reviews, comments, and constructive criticism no flames. If I see a flame I will simply laugh at you. I hope you all have a marvelous day, and I bid you adieu.
