Demon Child

Richard is afraid. Very afraid. The demon is coming after his two-year-old child, Cody. His wife has persuaded him to move to somewhere sacred, like North India or Tibet, or maybe even Thailand so that the demon cannot touch their son.

Nobody knows how the demon finds them. He appeared in Richard's bedroom while they were having sex, just before Richard ejaculated, he commanded Richard to give him their firstborn before the child reaches age 5.

Richard and his wife were terrified, thinking that it was only a bad dream. Till today, the demon harrasses them till they could bear it no more. They go to consult a demonologist and are given a lore book.

"Tyrinath, demon of all children, consumes the life of the firstborn for eternal life. Tyrinath is either alive or dead. Feed him a child and he lives, feed him a bleeding child and he dies."

That is according to the lore. But die forever? If so, previous people who read this lore should be able to kill him.

"He will hunt for another prey," the demonologist says.

That will do.

He cut Cody's arm very slightly to induce a tiny bleeding when the demon appears before them a twelve midnight. Cody cries so terribly that Richard's wife weeps like a howling witch.

The demon sees Cody's blood and vaporizes. Richard's family is never harrassed by the demon forever.

3 years later, Richard's entire family go missing, only leaving behind bloody trails and police make an early conclusion: they are abducted and killed.

6 months later, a demon appears at the demonologist room and the old demonologist dies of shock and old age.

The demon has Cody's face.
