(10 years later)

"Listen here you no eyed freak, if you keep running to Nyla I'm going to break those hands of yours." said the fucktard, these guys have been bothering me for the past three years cuz I caught them messing with a little girl tried stopping them and now they are my tormenters. Now every time they see me they ether try to whoop my ass or try to extort me for money. "H-hey lets not f-fight guys, I c-can pay you. I just g-g-got my pay y-yesto" I was interrupted. "We don't want your worthless money you horned freak. We want to hurt, you tried to get us into trouble. So its time to teach you a lesson." He replied angrily. "W-what do y-you mean by l-l-lesson" I stuttered.

They ignored me. "Aerin, are we actually gonna do that to him?" Asked one of the goons, fucktard or Aerin replied "Yes, he crossed us and he needs to be punished. Dragrur, grab the saw." The donning of realization came to me, their words, they're gonna cut my horns off! "Hey, please don't do this!" I pleaded, they didn't reply. "Stop, please stop. I beg you. Stop, stop." His daunting voice replied back. "oh look at this, it seems that you wanna get off without punishment, well I'm sorry to tell you this but you crossed me one too many times." I felt something deep down, fear. Something I know too well, its always been there, ever since I could speak it has been there.

Wait, why haven't they started cutting horns. I realized there was no movement ether, there breathing was also shallow like they were scared. "What are you doing here S-S-Setsu?" meekly asked Aerin. "I'm looking for Seth, have you guys seen him?" inquired Setsu. Regaining his confidence, he replied, "Ya I have, he ran that way." I'm assuming he is pointing the other direction, but how will I get his intention, my mouth is covered right now. I started thrashing around to get Setsu to notice me. "Stop you fucker." whispered one of the goons. "Hey, what is that?" Asked Setsu. "N-nothing, nothing at all." Replied Aerin "No, there is something there. Seth!?! what did they do to you?" I'm assuming that he is pissed by the sound of his breathing. "Let's go, Seth." While he was saying that he untied me and helped me stand up. "Aerin, if I find you trying to do anything like this again I will hurt." He threatened.

"Seth, you gotta be careful and stop trying to be the hero." warned Setsu. "B-but Set-" "NO BUTS, they were trying to hurt you. They almost cut off your horns, we don't even know your race if you are part of the dragonmen you could die." angrily replied Setsu. "I know." I said

Ever since my first memory, Setsu has been here. He's basically an older brother to me. His family disowned him for being a hybrid of both a devil and a dragon, a one night stand between an arch-duke and a blood dragon. His birth should have been impossible, but it happened and I now have an awesome brother and friend. His appearance has been one of the oddest in the orphanage, only second to mine. His skin is a dark brown with crimson scale and undertones of black. Fiery red hair with highlights of orange and yellows. Four horns, two large black ones with scarlet markings on them growing right out of his upper forehead and two smaller white horns growing about an inch below the others. A tail about two feet long and is marked with red and crimson scales with a lightly tanned underside, two large wings with black scales highlighted with reds. Ears are pointed with tips being covered in scales. He can get a bit overbearing at times, but is fun and outgoing.
