Chereads / Lucifer and Chloe / Chapter 6 - This means War

Chapter 6 - This means War

"I can't take much more. I'm about to replace your mouth with a zipper, child. You irritate me as only the Morningstar could. So much so, that I would think he was your real parent. I shall be sure to check your lineage. No one can be this annoying without being his relation."

Trixie stuck out her tongue, "If he was my dad, you'd be my grandfather. .Eww no, I don't want to be related to you. You're like a total buttface and a bully, too. I can't wait for Lucifer to kick your butt."

"Someone save me from this insufferable child at once. I demand she be quiet."

Several of Lucifer's brothers stood to the side, pointing and laughing at their Father's suffering. All were in agreement that he had brought this upon himself. The child was Morningstar reincarnate.

"I demand she be quiet, cuz I'm a grumpy old goat", Trixie mocked. "I kidnap little kids then act like they're the bad guys. I'm God, and I'm a cry baby, poop face."

Gabriel slowly approached God,"Father may I make a suggestion?"

"Only of it's replacing the girl's mouth or sealing it closed."

"Father, we should take her back. It would solve everyone's problems."

"I'm not interested in solving problems. My interest lies in the Lightbearer's reaction to loss. Tell me my son, do you think your brother is capable of feeling anything for these humans he used to detest so much, or is he angry someone took his toys away?"

Gabriel didn't know how to answer the question. It had been centuries since he last saw Lucifer and that was when his brother got it into his head to tempt Christ. Longest forty days ever. For the first time in his whole Angelic existence, Gabriel was unsure of anything.

"Father, I am unsure. He seems to only care for a few select humans that he had grown an attachment to. The rest are used and sent on their way. These past few days, he has had the Fallen kill many but he himself has not touched them. The only ones left alive in his wake are children. I think we should return the child and repair the damage."

"Or, we should take the human woman, named Chloe and see how he reacts to that. Yes, that will work. I will make her keep the child quiet, as well."

Oh no. This was not going to end well. Gabriel shuddered to think of how his brother would react to that. There goes the rest of the world. What was Father thinking?

"I don't think that's such a good idea."

"Who told you to think? Just do as you're told. Fetch Michael and tell him to obtain the human for me."

Gabriel scurried away to get Michael. He had a feeling this was going to turn out badly but he couldn't get Father to see reason. Laying a hand on Chloe Decker was like setting off the Lucifer nuke. Every living thing was going to suffer for it. Why couldn't the all knowing Father see that? Wasn't it bad enough?

Michael came and knelt before his Father after Gabriel's beckon. With his head hung low, he waited to receive instruction. He was tense but ready to do as his father commanded.

"My son, I have called you forth to assign you a grand mission. One that will affect the fate of many. Go to the earthly realm and obtain for me a human, called Chloe Decker. She is the breeder of that evil child", he said pointing at Trixie.

"As you command, my father. It will be done."

Michael entered the human realm and quickly found his prey. He spied her sleeping next to Lucifer's demon, in her bed. Had Lucifer caused the human to do immoral things and if so, why would father want a human tainted by a demon?

He flew in and grabbed the woman before the demon had enough time to react. Maze caught him by the leg all the while screaming for Lucifer. In his haste to depart, Michael dropped his famous sword on the carpet by Chloe's bed. Maze quickly grabbed it and stabbed him right in the ass.

The door flew off it's hinges and Lucifer, followed by Amenadiel, rushed in to see what she was screaming about. One look at Chloe in his bastard brother's arms sent him into a rage. He and Amenadiel caught Michael by his heavenly robes and tugged him down. Punch after punch was rained on Michael's heavenly visage but his grip on Chloe only grew tighter, causing her to scream in pain. Lucifer was taken off guard and in that moment, Michael flew away, but he left his sword behind.

Lucifer took the flaming blade from Maze and turned it over in his hand. He knew exactly what he was going to do with it, raze the earth and then the heavens. If Father wanted war, he would be more than happy to oblige.

Michael dropped Chloe at God's feet, holding his punctured backside, "I have fulfilled your request but it was not easy. The Morningstar has help in the form of Amenadiel, they attacked me. Look at my beautiful face, it's ruined!"

God sighed and repaired Michael's face. The Archangel really did know how to whine but he was loyal and would always do as God told him. Even if it did cost him his life. Finding out that Amenadiel was a traitor was disappointing but not unexpected. He would deal with him soon. For now, he had to scare the human into silence so he could think. Lucifer would come now, he just knew it.

"Hello, Chloe Decker. Welcome to Heaven. You'll find your child over there. I don't want to hear a peep out of you or I'll quickly end your existence and hers. Now we wait for him."

Chloe snuggled Trixie close, thinking she was having a dream but the girl felt all too real. She could feel the warmth of the child and even her breath on her cheek. Trixie was alive. "Oh, my God!"

"Yes, human, God, indeed. Now silence!"

Lucifer wasted no time ordering the Fallen to go to the Middle East. He was going to destroy the birthplace of religion in general. The fewer humans worshiping Father in all of his incarnations, the weaker the old boy would become. Strategy, it was a gift.
