Damien

Kai wakes up laying on the hot ground. As he looks up he sees a layer of lava far above him. Kai gets up on his feet, and he sees the beast looking down upon him. Beast is huge. He looks to be the height of a three storey building. He is sitting in a gigantic throne.

Beast: Nap time is over.

Kai: You're the one who forced me to sleep!

Beast: You should have woken up.

Kai: Why did you bring me here?

Beast: Two reasons. The first is to train you. The second is restore our connection.

Kai: Didn't we gain the connection the last time I went to Hell!

Beast: Yes, but I severed the connection because your body wasn't able to handle it. When you punched Malphas you passed out. For your safety I broke the connection. To my surprise I have almost completely severed our connection. That is why I have only been able to stay in touch with you for brief periods.

Kai: So how do we get the connection back?

Beast: By staying in this realm of mine.

Kai: I have been in Hell!

Beast: No, this realm. Beneath the lava lake.

Kai: That's where we are?

Beast: This is where I reside.

Kai: Pretty lonely.

Beast: Not when I am able to watch over all of Hell.

Kai: So you're like a stalker that never gets caught.

Beast: No, I'm their god.

Kai: That's pretty narcissistic.

Beast: Stop talking back before I knock you out, and you have to reawaken.

Kai: Fine. What's first?

Beast: First I need to show you a martial art.

Kai: Ah, I love those things. Martial arts are awesome.

Beast: I know because you dabble in quite a few of them. This is Hell's combat "Atem Infernous."

Kai: Nice name. What is it about?

Beast: Don't interrupt me.

Kai: Sorry. I got excited.

Beast: Most demons only know stage one. Stage one is about honor and strength. A demon will challenge you to a duel. You stand a few feet from each other, and you both hit each other as hard as you can over and over again until one of you falls. That is how most honorable demons will fight you, but there are other stages of combat. The other stages are mainly known only by the archangels. Demons are usually unskilled in this martial art. They either fight demon to demon, or they use their powers.

Beast pots his hand out. A demon crawls up from out of the ground.

Beast: This is a dummy.

Kai: If he's a dummy how did he climb out of the ground?

Beast: I don't need to explain.

Kai: Fair.

Beast: You have to hit that man with all the strength possible. Show me what you'll do.

Kai goes to kick.

Beast: Kicks aren't allowed.

Kai: Well that's stupid. Then you just punch or elbow him.

Kai elbows the dummy in the stomach.

Beast: Wrong, you're not putting in your full power.

Kai: I beg to differ.

Beast: You're just hitting him with raw power. This is why you never fully use your strength. You need to hit him with speed on top of power. Instead of just moving at a normal speed use that 400 mph speed like you did against multiplex. Run up to the dummy. Get real close. Then, as fast as you can, elbow him in the stomach.

Kai runs up to the dummy. He gets real low with his elbow ready. Then in less then a split second his elbow collided with the dummies kidney.

Beast: Much better, now practice with other collisions. You can now use your kicks, but use punches too.

As Kai is practicing he starts to wonder about Hell.

Kai: Beast, you say that there is a problem with Hell. What is it?

Beast: As you know we were originally one place. Then the one kingdom divided into 2. The two kingdoms being apart worked well. None of them felt like they were worse off. These kingdoms were the north and south. The archangels are lazy, and did not believe it was worth it to fly all the way around Hell simply to get free things from the demons. Eventually the north became a demon and human kingdom. So the demon kingdom became the west kingdom. The angels could now get to the demons easier. Now the demons are right back to the lowest in power. The demons are about to go berserk from Beelzebubs rule, and the angels constantly treat them like dirt. On Top of that demons have been escaping Hell. It's an even bigger problem because Entity is human and still escaped. I have no power over the multiverse. Once they escape Hell I can no longer do anything about their disappearance.

Kai: So, Hell's about to become a race war, and if demons start losing they'll jump the ship to earth.

Beast: That is the short of it.

Kai: Well then I guess this rag tag duo is going to have to keep Hell in order.

The beast chuckles.

Beast: I guess we will. Now for something you're not going to want to hear.

Kai: What?

Beast: Remember how you brutally murdered those dogs.

Kai: Yeah…

Beast: You will have to do the same with demons.

Kai: No.

Beast: And why not.

Kai: Demons don't respawn like humans do here. If I kill a demon I'm taking a life the same way it is if I took a human life.

Beast: It is not the same. Demons live forever Kai. Humans use their little time on earth finding meaning. Since their time is limited they try to find the most meaning out of it. Demons do not. Demons just do whatever they feel like. If they want food they do something to get it. Murdering demons isn't a charge here. It gains you respect. Unlike earth were your cutting off that little time they have on earth. You're giving a demon peace. Demons don't fear death, humans do.

Kai: I'll think about it.

Beast: You will do as I say. I see all life in Hell as my people. Do you believe that I would be telling you to kill my own people for nothing!

Kai: No…

Beast: Then you will kill them because if you don't they'll kill you as soon as you turn their back. Demons have no honor. They want to gain respect by body count.

Kai:...

One of Beelzebub's servants walks up to him.

Servant: Malphas is dead.

Beelzebub: Did Kai kill him?

Servant: No, he was killed by the leviathan.

Beelzebub: Kamaitachi called on the leviathan to help. They won't be able to do that forever. Send out three demons to get him. The leviathan is a dick he won't come if Kai calls upon him again so soon. He's wide open.

Beelzebub lets out a laugh.

Beelzebub: And we'll have no more problems.

Servant: Right away sir.

Kai keeps training. After what feels like hours and hours the dummy crawls back into the ground.

Beast: Your training is finished. The connection has finished. When you leave here you'll be able to use my power, but I have an idea.

Kai: What?

Beast: Use an alias and a costume. If you act different and look different, Beelzebub's men will have a harder time finding you.

Kai: That's a great idea. Where's the costume, and what's the alias?

Beast: The costume is right here.

Beast puts his hand out for a fist bump.

Kai: Okay.

Kai fist bumps Beast, and wakes up in the temple. Kai is wearing a red gas mask with a red plastic shield over his eyes. The mask and shield are tight to his face. He has a red sleeveless sweatshirt on. The sweatshirt has a yellow circle in the middle of it. Then there is protective gear from just above Kai's elbow to just before his wrist on both arms. Kai has red baggy pants on with an excessive amount of pockets. Then he has red and black sneakers on. Kai gets up from laying on the floor.

Kai: Damn, Beast is a good fashionista.

Beast: Thank you.

Kai: Oh, since we're connected do I now have to get constantly bothered.

Beast: Yes.

Kai: Thanks for being straightforward with it.

Kai takes out his staff to look at it. HGis staff has a new red coloring to it.

Kai: You really changed everything.

Beast: I never fail.

Kai walks outside of the temple.

Kai: How long did training take.

Beast: A day.

Kai: A whole day!

Three demons surround Kai.

Beast: You should handle that.

Kai(in head): Yeah, Yeah.

Kai: Who's first?

One of the demons steps up to Kai.

Demon1: Me first.

The demon punches Kai with all his might. Kai's face is moved to the side by the punch, but Kai doesn't flinch. Kai starts glowing red.

Kai: Is that all you got. My turn.

Kai drops down, and before any of the demons realize it Kai's elbow is in the demon. The demon drops to the ground. Then Kai takes out his staff, and swings it around himself.

Kai: Well c'mon. I'm ready for this to be over.

The other two demons run off to Kai. Kai swings his staff, and knocks the head right off of one of the demons. Then he thrusts his staff into the other demon's shoulder. The staff goes right through, and Kai kicks the demon off of his staff. The demon falls to the ground. Kai stabs his staff through the demon he elbowed to kill him. Kai puts away his staff, and picks up the only demon left by the collar.

Kai: Tell Beelzebub I'm not Kai. My name is damien. If you come after me I'll kill you.

Kai drops the demon. The demon scatters away holding his impaled shoulder.

Beast: Damien?

Kai: It's the name of the devil's son.

Beast: I don't like the name.

Kai: Then you should have picked it.

Kai starts walking off.

Kai: Where are we going now?

Beast: Now, we're going to the southern kingdom.
