'They had bet our lives.' The phrase kept repeating itself in Danny's mind as he and his sister, Jazz, sat in the back of the hot pink limo across from the demon who was now their legal guardian.
The day seemed so unreal, the small army of men dressed as clergymen showing up at FentonWorks, arresting the kids' parents and burning their home to the ground.
Jack and Maddie Fenton had preformed a crime against god, and for that they would be imprisoned by the True Cross Order until their sentencing. This left Danny and Jazz alone in the world with nothing to their names. Which is why they now sat across from a demon, off to a new life that neither one of them wanted.
"Oh come now, don't give me that look," Mephisto Pheles said with his cunning grin that showed his above average sized canine teeth. The demon was dressed in a white suit with a matching cape and top hat. With his dark blue hair and pointy beard, as well as his pointed ears, he was so obviously a demon that it was almost laughable.
"Why shouldn't we hate you? You've come in out of nowhere and told us that our parents bet our lives against you and lost," Jazz said angrily. Jazz was a fairly average seventeen year old girl with bright orange hair and blue eyes which she was using to glare at the demon.
"Oh don't be so dramatic, it isn't as if they bet your souls. I'm simply going to be your new legal guardian. So once you turn eighteen you can be free of me if that is your wish. But until then, you will attend my academy and train to become exorcists. That isn't so bad is it?" Mephisto said, giving a playful shrug. "And now that you no longer have to worry about your parents finding out about your brother's 'condition', aren't you much better off than you were before. He doesn't even have to hide himself if he doesn't want to. There are many half demons in the True Cross Order. Though I have to admit he is the first half spirit I have ever seen."
Danny glared at the man, his normal crystal blue human eyes momentarily flashing a very inhuman green from behind his black bangs. Mephisto was astatic as the sight of the bright green eyes. "Your parents wanted to know how to get into Sheol, the realm of the spirits, and I told them and I warned them of the consequence. All I asked for in return was that if they were ever caught, then their children would be mine to do with as I please until they become adults. I was extremely fair with them. It isn't my fault that they choose the path they did."
"No you just gave them the gun and told them to go nuts. You aren't the murderer," Danny hissed angrily. But he had to admit that both he and his sister were probably better off without their parents. Parents who would risk there children for the sake of their stupid ghost hunts.
The limo passed through a tunnel and when they came out the other side the view had completely changed. They were now surrounded by large school building that all looked really high end and fancy. "Welcome children to True Cross Academy, Japan!" Mephisto said in a very grandiose manner, with his arms spread wide. "The best academy in the world, here is where you will take your normal classes while your exorcist training will take place... somewhere else." Jazz didn't want to admit it, but that did sound good to her.
The limo stopped out in front of an old abandoned looking dorm. "You are going to be staying here," Mephisto said, handing them each a key and giving a twisted smile. "You will find all the things you need in your rooms. So don't worry. Tata now, and have a good time," He said, pushing them out of his limo which drove away.
Mephisto could not believe his luck. When he had explained how to open a portal to the 'Ghost Zone' to those Fentons, he had only expected to be entertained as they ruined their own lives and lost their children. But not only did he get that, but he also got their son, Danny Phantom. A half demon of a caliber rarely seen.
Not only that, but the boy had defeated Mephisto's brother, Mammon, also known as Pariah Dark, another one of the eight Demon Kings, the King of Spirit. And even if Pariah was not the strongest of the eight Demon Kings, he was still one of the top ten strongest demons in existence.
Yes, things were turning out great for the King of Time. He could not wait to see how these events would drive forward into the future. "This world is a perfect playground. And oh how I love to play."
Needed a short break from my other story, so I shot this down in twenty minute.
In blue exorcist manga, the types of demons are established to be Earth, Water, Fire, Rot, Time, Insect, Spirit, and Light, each having its own king. So Pariah is the King of Spirit.
Mephisto is a trickster who makes bets with people that will ruin their lives for his kicks. So I said that the Fentons got there portal tech from Mephisto and that they bet their children's futures on the outcome.
