As a child I was treated equally. I grew up with my 6 siblings, my two older siblings, my twin and my three younger ones. I should probably introduce them:

My First eldest sister (Ollorria Arch Diabolous), has long luscious crimson hair,  beautiful onyx horns and a three pairs of wings. She has beautiful long straight but flowy hair that goes down to the dip of her back. She has a yellow glow with naturally rosy cheeks. She has round light brown/gold eyes with monolids. She has lips perfectly shaped with a natural red hue. She might look sweet but for those that know her… lets talk about that later.

My First older brother(Edmore Arch Diabolous), has long horns and fangs, a tail and 2 wings.He has black short hair shaved down on the sides while the top is styled lightly. He has rich brown eyes with a defined jawline. Like my oldest sister, he has perfectly shaped lips with a pinky hue. When he smiles he has dimples... He is slightly tanned from the time he spends outdoors and he is medium build standing at 5'11 He’s the most likely to take over as the demon lord after my father dies. More brawn than brains but also tenaciously good at magic.

My twin brother (Charlore Arch Diabolous), looks much the same as my first older brother but with one less pair of wings. My twin brother stands slightly shorter than my older brother at 5'9 With sky blue eyes and a double lid. He has warm blonde colored medium short hair style up in a half mohawk slicking back his bangs.  He has full plump lips with a slightly red hued. He’s a prodigy in magical programming and get create new magical creations.

My younger brother (Joloure Arch Diabolous) looks plain faced but very muscular and well toned. Joloure is in the medium build area, with broad shoulders. He has light brown hair medium short leaving it styled. His bangs sweep naturally toward the right with a side split hair line. He has a very boyish grin with the cutest eye smile that any girl would die for. His light brown eyes are hid behind half rim glasses he only wears during his studies. He, like my other brothers have a defined jawline but with fleshy red. He also has massive horns and a tail a pair of wings and some of the largest fangs in the family.

My first youngest sister (Emean Arch Diabolous) is admired by all the males in the court. She has natural  wavy medium brown hair. She has side swept bangs that rest perfectly at eyebrow height. She is the perfect height for most guys standing at 5'2. She has double eye lids  and distinct silver coloured eyes. She has a curvy body, sitting at average weight. She has dimples and a eye smile, slightly tanned, rosy cheeks, with a natural soft yellow glow to her skin. My sister’s magic for glamour surpasses even the best magicians in the royal court. She still has not reached the age for her class up but already possesses small horns.

Lastly, my second youngest sister (Moleoria Arch Diabolous) is honestly a spoiled brat. She has slightly wavy black hair going down to the middle of her back. She has rich brown colored round almond eyes. She is average. She’s close to being skinny with a high metabolism and some baby fat on her face. She a soft jawline, dimples when she smiles and has natural rosy red cheeks as well as plump red lips. Even though she hasn't gone through the class up and shows no sign of being a prodigy she still picks on me.

Before my class up, I got along with all my siblings we would play with each other everyday, laugh and generally have a good time.

But everything changed on the day of my class up.

I walked into the main place of worship of Demon Church of Abaddon.

Today I was going to go through the rite of passage every demon goes through when they start to come of age (around age 12). The class up ceremony. The ceremony was where a young demon would start to grow into his adult form, either wings, horns, a tail or fangs would become visible after the ceremony. These, feature would let another demon know of the amount of demonic power one had.

Stolen from its rightful author, this tale is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings.

In front of me was the demon god crystal, behind the crystal was the high priest from the church of Abbadon. Seated not to far from the crystal was my father in all his glory, the demon lord of the abyss and the king of the demon continent. Behind my father was my other siblings dressed in formal wear.

Priest: “Let the ceremony for the fourth demon prince  Aleam Arch Diabolous commence. Your highness will you please make your vows before we proceed.”

Me: “ I Aleam Arch Diabolous will offer my body and soul to the kingdom and church of Abaddon. I will uphold my duty as a member of the royal family with nobility and grace. If ever our land the demon continent shall erupt in war I will offer my service. May both heaven and earth lay witness to my class up”.

As I finished my speech the priest nodded.

Priest: “Then let us begin the ceremony. Your highness will you please place your hand on Abbadon’s crystal and recite the incantation”.

I nodded and began reciting the class up incantation.

Me: “阿巴頓，破壞妖神和無效請問儀來聽我的要求。我Aleam拱門Diabolus的Diabolus王室第四王子懇求你。我誰已經成熟為您提供我的肉，我的血，我的骨頭。哦，上古之神賜予我你的力量來克服我的身體局限的片段。”

[Translated: (“Abaddon, demon god of destruction and the void I ask yee to listen to my request. I Aleam Arch Diabolous, fourth prince of the Diabolous royal family beseeches thee. I who have come of age offer you my flesh, my blood, my bones. Oh ancient god grant me a fragment of thy power to overcome the confines of my body.”)]

The crystal started to glow, a bright white light shot out of Abbadon’s crystal and started to swirl around me. As the light started to enter my body the priest mumbled something weird under his breath.

Many people gasped, the colour and intensity of the light and represented the a demon’s potential in both magic and combat. And the intensity emitted by Abbadon’s crystal was blinding.

Quickly the light was greedily absorbed by my body and then… nothing.

I looked up at the people in the room and they waited patiently for the changes to occur. But nothing was happening. I waited, the audience waited. seconds turned into minutes, minutes turned into hours. Finally the priest said to go home and one by one the other people gathered stated to file out of the church.

Priest: “Your highness's, I do not believe there was anything wrong with the ceremony. Due to the ridiculous amount of power the fourth prince received, I believe that his body just needs some time to rest before the changes happen”.

My father made an uneasy face at the priest but nodded his head.

Demon Lord: “hmm… Then we shall just have to wait and see.”

That night my body felt hot. My inside felt like they were being ripped to shreds, I felt hot and cold in cycles. I could feel my blood boil and my brain was throbbing. But as the night ended the pain would slowly receded.

I woke up from my hellish torture, and walked myself over to the mirror. As I saw my figure looking back at me I cried out.

Me: “Holy s**t what the f*** is this  s**t, why, why, why!”

As I looked into the mirror I saw myself, nothing changed no horns, no tail, no wings; nothing.  

Me: “S**t s**t s**t, what’s going on?”

As I looked closer I could finally see some minute changes but not much my eye color changed to silver with my black pupils taking on the shape of two vertical slits. I also noticed that my fangs grew slightly but not much to make a difference, maybe a two or three centimeter growth.

Me:”This can’t be that bad right?”

But later would I find out that I was severely mistaken.
