the demon prince
(( this is zachiriels backstory, i might write more if people like it))

Many years ago, in ancient times, lived a demon family. The father's side of the family was demon royalty in the form of cats. like a mythical god in cat form. The catlike demon was trapped inside a human body. The father was king of cat demons. The mother of the child was human, and very beautiful. They had two children whose names were Zachiriel and Zacharie. The two boys could shapeshift into any kind of cat, and when they used their powers to change form, their fingers transformed into metal-like sharp claws.

It was near Christmas time at their small little shack, which they lived in because they didn't want to be known as loyalty, because they were demons and did not want to attract attention to themselves. A group of soldiers encamped nearby saw the mother out gathering wood for a fire, and saw that she was very beautiful. One soldier began talking to her, and she accidentally let out the secret that she was married to a demon. The soldier panicked, and was afraid that the demon husband would kill him for talking to his beautiful wife, so he attacked the entire family with spears. He called the rest of the soldiers came and took most of the family's belongings and killed the mother. The dad survived with first born, and it was snowy. THe father was running in the snow, to escape. As he stumbled and slipped on the snowy ground, fumbling in the darkness, he dropped Zachiriel.

A little while later, a soldier found Zachiriel near the village, not realizing that the child was a demon child. born of the demon family. He thought perhaps the child was a human child abandoned by some poor people in the village, as they often left their children to die in the woods when they could not feed them. Zachiriel's powers of survival made his eyes look human. The soldier brought the young child back to camp, where everyone helped to care for him until he was 6 or 7 years old.

One day, Zachiriel was in the soldier camp, and he changed himself into a lion and began to eat the soldiers. Frightened, they lured the lion form into a cage. They plotted on how to kill him, and decided to feed him poison. Because it was half-human, when the soldiers tried to kill him, he did not die, but only half-died.

One day, years later, when he was 16, he escaped, turning himself into a human form. He left the soldier camp in the middle of the night, and was found by a young girl about his age in the snow. The girl took him in, warmed him up by the fire and she took care of him and they became friends. Grace was a lonely orphan girl who loved animals, but had no friends. Grace was visiting her outdoor pantry, looking for dried and canned peaches for a snack, amazed to discover Zachiriel half-frozen in the snow. She had a sled that she loaded him up on and pulled him to her home, where she had a fire going and a pot of rabbit meat soup and a pot of peach cobbler. It turns out that Zachiriel's favorite flavor was peach. He loved peaches. Grace nursed Zachiriel back to health with lots of peach pie, peach tea, and peach cobbler, along with peaches in his oatmeal. He and Grace became best friends.

After he is healthy again, while they are out walking in the woods, he says, "Thank you for restoring my health, Grace, however, I must tell you something you may not want to hear."
Grace froze, and her stomach churned with a butterfly flutter. "What?" she whispered, somehow knowing that the news would be horrible.

"I'll tell you later when we get home," he said, casually plucking a lilac from a bush and placing it in Grace's hand. Grace's heart settled down and she felt happy.

She did not realize that Zachiriel wanted to kill her and take her human soul so he could look and be human. She had no idea.
After returning to Grace's place in the dark woods, Zachiriel scratched and stabbed Grace with his cat claws, and she bled to death in the kitchen. He then removed her soul and switched with his own.

Immediately after, he became upset about killing her, so he buried her under her favorite peach tree, which grew in her backyard. Without Grace, Zachiriel was so sad that he did not eat. A few weeks later, he died because he did not take care of himself, then he came back as a full-on demon. The king felt pity upon him and wanted to make him stronger, so he let him come back as immortal and a complete demon, so he could not die. He no longer likes humans, so he tries to stay away from humans, and stays in a shack in the woods and eats animals.

He lives in the woods, waiting for another demon or his brother to show up. He misses his brother, and feels that his brother might be alive somewhere.
