demons in captivity

''Son, today is your final chance to at least be a medium level demon''

The father said to his child.

''I'm sorry sir but your son is a low level demon''

The tester said to the father.

''No dad, don't leave me!''

The boy yelled at his father.

''I will leave you with your mother, you can't stay here anymore. You know how much Lilith hates you, do you really think she would accept having you here if you don't have high potential?''

The father said to his son.

''Dad, what is going on?''

The 2nd son asked their father.

''Danny is going to be staying with his mother from now on''

The father answered.

When the child heard his father tell it to someone else he finally understood the seriousness of the situation. His eyes started glowing with purple light and he screamed in anger.

''Mephisto! You damned bastard! How can you send me away? Your own son!''

The son screamed at his father and Satan's expression changed into anger.

''You damned bastard give me enough problems as is, I don't need your scolding and I did my best so you can stay, everything else is your mother's humanity's fault!''

Satan yelled at Danny and started walking away.

''No, please. Dad!''

Danny yelled as he woke up after being knocked out the day before.

********

Danny looked down at his legs and hands and saw that he was handcuffed, he looked at the room that he was in and saw that he was in a cell, there were 19 more cells in the room, and in each cell, there was one captive.

''Look who decided to wake up''

A familiar voice said from a cell not too far from him. He looked at the cell and his eyes widened in shock.

''what is the leader of the Oni demon doing here?''

Danny asked.

''Same as you. I was knocked out and placed here, they said that the parents of that damned Baal bastard we killed placed a bounty on our head but based on the person occupying the cell on my left I can say that this is not the full story''

Momotaro answered.

Danny looked at the cell by Momotaro's left and was surprised to find the knocked out body of the Baal kid's sister.

''How the hell do they have her too if her parents are the ones who placed that damned bounty on our head?''

Danny asked.

''Bits me''

Momotaro answered.

''Hey! You damned slaves, shut up!''

Someone who seemed to be the guard shouted at them.

''If you keep talking like that, those damned suckers at Eden will never buy you''

The guard said.

''And why is that such a bad thing?''

Danny asked.

''If no one will buy you in Eden, we would either dispose of you or we will sell you in places that would make you wish you were enslaved by the suckers of Eden''

The guard said with a smiling face.

********

They reached Eden and the guards started taking them outside of their cells and into the auction house.

When Danny stepped outside of the vehicle he saw it was an airship, big enough to contain a hundred slaves and forty crew members at the same time with all of their equipment and supplies.

''So who are those 'angelic' beings that you want to sell us to?''

Danny asked one of the guards.

''Listen, kid. You are the son of Satan, half human so you are less corrupt and a teenager which is a surprisingly rare quality to find among the thousands of slaves there are on the market at any given moment. So don't worry, you will be worth a lot''

The guard answered with a satisfied face.

********

''Sir, what kind of slaves are you planning to buy?''

Richard, one of the top assistants of one of the top angels asked his boss.

''My precious daughter asked for that one specific guy. I think his name was Daniel, though I'm probably mistaken because that 'iel' sound at the end of that name is more common with angels. Aside from that guy, I would buy others who seem interesting''

Uriel said to his assistant while smiling brightly.

'this archangel really loves his daughter, doesn't he?'

Richard thought to himself and chuckle.

''All the participants in the auction come in! We will start in five minutes!''

A soothing voice was heard from the speaker system.

Unlike in hell, in Eden, the speaker system does not suppose to increase people's misery.

********

In the big hall that looked like a theater, there were a hundred sits and all the sits were full.

''the first slave we have here, is a Greek demon. He is a male, adult in his two hundred and thirties. The auction starts at 100,000 silver coins, do I hear 110,000 silver coins''

The host said and people started shouting numbers up to 1,000,000 silver coins at which point the slave was sold to an angel with a muscular body that everyone seemed to fear.

''Minotaur the forty third is sold! To Gab... Gabriel!?! The archangel''

''boo''

''Why are you flexing, we know you outrank us!''

''go to hell''

Voices of objection were heard from the audience and Gabriel smiled.

''the next one will be more interesting! It's an Oni demon, male, at the age of 17, THE ruler of the Oni demons, a possible successor to Lucifer, and a reincarnated human who was a demon hunter in his past life! Please welcome to the stage Momotaro, the auction this time would start at 1,000,000,000 silver coins!''

The host proceeded

''56,120,000,000 silver coins!''

Uriel called to the host and just as the crowd started yelling they all stopped and looked at him with surprised eyes. Uriel doesn't usually go to auctions but when he does, he always buys the rare ones.

''you archangels, stop flexing!''

''Why would you pay so much!''

''you are ruining the event''

The voices from the crowd were all irritated but it did not faze Uriel who just set back down and watched the show.

After a few other slaves, it was Ishtar's turn at being sold.

''and now there is another interesting one! she is a female, at the age of 16 and a Baal demon, she is the successor to the Baal faction and her parents put quite a lot of money for whoever will return her''

The host said and the crowd went louder than before. This was because female slaves were a lot rarer than male ones and collectors just as Uriel went crazy in their prices.

'what is wrong with those people, I didn't even get the chance to tell them the starting price and they already shot past the starting price by three times!'

The host thought to himself.

''8,000,000,000 silver coins!''

Uriel shouted and everyone stopped shouting higher prices except for Gabriel who doubled that number.

''32,000,000,000 silver coins''

Uriel said and even Gabriel stopped competing.

After a few more rounds of screams, it was finally Danny's turn.

''We are closing this auction with a big one! He is half human! Male! At the age of 17! And he is the son of Lucifer!!! His cost will start at 2,000,000,000 gold coins!''

The host said and as he finished the sentence, the crowd already tripled that amount.

''1,000,000,000,000 gold coins''

Gabriel said as he and Uriel were the only ones still competing.

''3,000,000 dark metal coins!''

Uriel said and both Gabriel, the host, the slaves, Danny, and the audience were all in shock at that high price.

''sold''

The host said, not as infusiasticly as before, he was happy for the money but he was in a state of shock. When he said that Danny was sold, everyone in the audience who did not buy slaves went away and everyone who did, had papers that they needed to sign.

''Sir, why did you pay so much for that demon?''

Richard asked Uriel.

''he is the one my daughter wanted''

Uriel said with a bright smile.

********

''you three welcome to my house, I will ask my assistant to show you your jobs and rooms but first, I want to show you a picture of my sweet daughter''

Uriel showed them the picture; it was a picture of a beautiful teenage angel with brown hair and green eyes that Danny recognized.

''wait, you are THAT Uriel?! You are Emma's dad?''

Danny said with a somehow both happy and terrified face.

''what's up Danny haven't seen you in a while''

Emma looked at him with a big smile.
