-Anti-Demon Realm, 10 years before the Battle of Avalon-

A young wolf that looked like Arnec but with blue eyes was standing out behind a house, another resembling Fayn there as well and a demon knight, resembling the late Szakala but with dark blue eyes instead of red. The timber wolf stood hunched over with his sword in his hand.
"Wrong form again, Hikari. Let's see if your brother knows what he's doing." Alastor, the demon, said with an Australian accent and an unimpressed look on his face. Hikari looked over at his brother
"He's even angrier than usual, Kurai... Try not to make him mad because he'll probably snap this time." Hikari whispered. Kurai smirked before assuming his fighting position with his sword. Alastor smirked
"Correct form. Look Hikari, you stand all hunched over and you'll be hit off balance easily. Try again, I've got even less time and patience than usual for you two today." Alastor said as Hikari walked back, Kurai moving by him
"Don't worry, you got this."
Alastor huffed
"Could be leading my own army but instead I'm raising children... I guess I now know how my father felt." Alastor thought to himself.
"Well, maybe I won't have to for much longer, they pass this..."
Hikari went to assume his fighting stance and looked fine.
"Wrong position, damnit," Alastor yelled.
"Why can't you be more like Kurai!?."
"I'm sorry, I'm trying!" Hikari yelled, Alastor slapping him
"So you think your enemy will accept an apology or will they behead you!?"
Kurai clenched his fist as he heard the sounds of slaps and Hikari's yelps of pain. Kurai looked down at the table next to him and noticed a katana there. He could hear a voice calling to him.
"Barbatos..." Kurai said to himself before grabbing the sword and unsheathing it, rushing at Alastor. The demon knight turned his attention to the gray wolf and raised his sword, blocking it.
"Defending your brother, how honorable. But he should have learned..." Alastor said as he put his talons on Hikari's throat, the young wolf looking up at his brother before Kurai heard the sound of bones snapping, Hikari eyes closing. Kurai looked up at Alastor, his eyes glowing a furious magenta before he started swinging the blade wildly, Alastor kicking Hikari's lifeless body at Kurai to try and stop him, which worked as he tripped, Alastor slicing upwards and cutting Kurai's right eye socket before jamming his blade through the young wolf's stomach. Kurai looked up, his blade being in Alastor's stomach as well. Both breathed heavily as they looked at each other, Kurai's eye twitching as he heard his father's voice
"Impressive... I taught you well. Maybe he'd be alive if he had listened as well as you did..." Alastor said as the blade dug deeper into Kurai's stomach before he pulled it out and snapped Kurai's sword in half! Kurai's body twitched as something resembling a demon form took over his body, similar to Arnec's first form. The broken blade of the sword suddenly ignited with magenta colored energy as Kurai hovered in the air, wings spread. Alastor looked shocked as the wolf slung his body into the demon, knocking him back before flying away. Alastor smirked as he rubbed his beak
"Hmph, he would've made a damn fine soldier. Especially with that form..." he said to himself before getting on his radio, breathing heavily
"This is Alastor, a Mobian strike team infiltrated my home and killed one of my sons! Kurai is missing and I need everyone to assemble for an immediate invasion!" he said before switching his radio off. He looked over at Hikari's body
"Maybe I can make the most out of this... He should have been better, he has my DNA!" he thought to himself.
"Maybe that other is still alive..."

-Anti-Mobius, two months after the battle of Avalon. Location: Spiral Hill-

The door to the museum opened, a biscotti wolf walking through
"Scar, you here?" the wolf asked before walking to another room where a lemur laid on the couch, asleep.
"Strangle's passed out again."
She could hear her pained groans as Strangle seemed to be having a nightmare as she tossed and turned.
"Trinket... I'll... Get them, promise..." she mumbled, the wolf shaking her head. Suddenly her radio went off and she heard an older man's voice
"Hello Team Scorpius, I am in need of you help! Is Scar there?"
Scream recognized the voice and smiled
"Negative Dr Kintober."
"Oh, hello Scream! Do you have any idea where he is?"
"No. What is it?"
"It's Scourge, he attacked the clinic again... I didn't want to bother you, but you're the only ones that I think can properly deal with him!"
Scream smirked, "I get a hold of him, I'll tell him and if he gives the go ahead, we'll take care of it."
"Thank you."
"Yeah, it's no problem..." Scream said as she hung up, letting out a sigh.
