*Inhale* "Ahhh, such fresh and clean air this place has, it's lovely…. It disgusts me…." I said with clear irritation in my voice as the barrier held firm around me while I saw all three of the head honchos surrounding me with weapons drawn along with my pathetic 'father' having his weapon in hand.
"Oooo, scary…. Not really, cause none of you will be able to touch me while I'm in here,No One Can Get In and No One Can Get Out." I said making it clear that my appearance wasn't my official match on Heaven.
I smirked as I looked at the rest of the confused Seraphim who didn't know who I really was before putting my guitar down as I gave a spin before stopping and giving a bow.
"Where are my manners! I am Cain, Earths First Sinner and the man who has killed tens of thousands of angels over the course of these last seven million years, it is a pleasure to make the your acquaintance…." I said at the end with clear and heavy sarcasm in my voice, shocking the crowd in surprise that such a prolific killer of their kind was now standing proudly and smugly in their very own territory.
"Why in the fuck are you even here asshole?! You don't belong here and you know that!" Adam shouted out to which I chuckled.
"Oh of course I know I'm not welcome here, but do I look like I give a fuck about you or anyone else's opinion? Oh! I didn't know you were here brother! How have you been? Did your health improve after arriving in heaven?" I say after being a bit surprised at seeing Able being here as well.
"I have been doing well Cain, I hope things are well for you down there…. But after what I have just learned I don't think things are all that great…." Able went onto say but I laughed it off.
"Oh so Alfred let you in on heavens dirty little secret? You know, them tricking Lucifer into believing that he would be possibly freed from hell if he stopped me from protecting my family as father and his bitches slaughtered my family." I say with a smile on my face, but the smile was clearly not reaching my eyes.
"Not only that but this is the signed paper that jackass gave to Lucifer saying what to do was legitimate and- Oh would you look at that! Signed by Sera herself, so even the high bitch of heaven had a personal hand in the slaughter of my family, a family that had no reason to be in hell and were only sent there because they were my wife and my children in my living life." I say showing it off to Able and everyone there that it was indeed signed by Sera, sending the others into shock, the most shocked was Emily of all people where as Sera's various eyes opened up across her body showing she was upset with being shown as implicit in the death of my family.
"Oh and before any of you call bullshit I give you The Book of Hell, the Real Version, now then Book of Hell, what are the sins that Awan, Enoch, Olad, Lizpha, Fosal, Citha and Maac?" I asked the book before glowing red to show there names in the air for all to see, their sins are none and that they are all dead, and they are all aware that only angelic weapons can permanently kill sinners.
"Father! What in the fuck! That was your daughter and your fucking grandchildren!" Able, a man who never swears or gets mad, got legitimately pissed at realizing his father killed his own family even if they were already dead and in hell dying that way is a permanent death.
"I didn't know that at the time alright?! I honestly thought those were his wife and kids he adopted when he was in hell! They didn't look anything like they did when they were humans so how the hell was I supposed to know!" He shouted back at Able trying to defend himself as I grabbed my guitar before strumming it and beginning to play.
"You know there is something I learned from this world when I was thrust down into Hell, Lillith taught me that song and music have actual power to change the hearts of people and to even empower them." I say to myself as I kept strumming my guitar as a black haze like mist began to swirl around me.
"Not only that but this power with the help of another can even break the chains surrounding my soul…. Even if God himself placed these chains on me." I mutter as visible holy golden chains appeared on my body, wrapping around my arms, legs, torso and neck as they stretched out in multiple directions, held by multiple, multi-eyed hands whose eyes were all shut tightly close.
Seeing those hands the entire congregation that was in this court knelt in prayer as those were the hands of their fathers, the hands of God himself.
*******
They all laughed as he turned around slow
They said, "You ain't welcome 'round here anymore
You just might as well go"
He wiped the blood from his face as he slowly came to his knees
He said, "I'll be back when you least expect it
And hell's coming with me"
Hell's coming with me
*******
As the song began to play multiple demonic bloood soaked hands came out of the portal beneath my feet as they rose up and grabbed the chains connected to me.
*******
There is a hill at the bottom of the valley
Where all the poor souls go when they die
And if you listen real close
You can hear 'em like a ghost
And you're never gonna make it out alive.
*******
Slowly the chains binding me began to loose more and more of there luster, the holy golden hue of the chains were beginning to get dull while the chains themselves were barely being held by Gods Hands.
*******
There is a town at the bottom of that hill
They got a secret that they keep like a slave
They got a black magic preacher
We'd do well to let him teach her
You'll be heading up that hill to the grave.
*******
Cracks slowly began to form on the chains as everyone could only look as none of Micheal, Gabriel, Uriel or Adam's weapons were breaking through the barrier, besides the chains binding me, nothing could get in, and nothing could get out.
********
And it is well with my soul
You line your pockets full of money
That you steal from the poor
And on your way down the hill
You hear me ring the bell
I'd pay the devil twice as much to keep your soul.
********
A loud cracking noise could be heard and soon enough the chain wrapping around my neck shattered and turned into nothing but dust, shocking the on lookers while I couldn't stop grinning from ear to ear.
********
There was a drifter passing through that little valley
He had promised he was coming back to town
They didn't know him by his face or by the gun around his waist
But he'll come back to burn that town to the ground
********
Another crack could be heard as the chain around my right was freed and I could feel a sense of ecstasy and freedom I haven't felt in years filling my body, but I kept playing my song.
Because music is power and this song helps her break the chains for me.
*******
First there was fire
Then there was smoke
Then the preacher man was hanging by a rope
And then they all fell to their knees
And begged that drifter, begged him please
As he raised his fist before he spoke
********
Suddenly the last of the chains finally broke as I stood up as all the power within my body flared out and releasing a suffocating pressure for everyone here with only a few being able to stand as my six wings spread out behind me as I floated above them all.
********
I am the righteous hand of God
And I am the devil that you forgot
And I told you one day you will see
That I'll be back, I guarantee
And that hell's coming, hell's coming
Hell, hell's coming with me
********
Though in the distance, far beyond all of Heaven, a man was laying silently within a pile of flowers as his many eyes slowly opened ever so slightly.
".... I wondered when this day would come….. my children….. you created this monster….. you must deal with it on your own…. I will only step in when I must..." Is all this being said before he shut his eyes once more and did nothing even with major changes happening in his own realm.
But they decided to make this monster themselves, heaven has become misguided since the beginning and he had hoped his creations could mature and grow after all this time, but he realized he was wrong and helped only once 10,000 years ago and sees no need to step in until the end times begin.
*******
And it is well, with my soul
You line your pockets full of money
That you steal from the poor
And on your way down the hill
You hear me ringing that bell
And I say
Hell's coming with me!
********
(Poor Man's Poison: Hell's Comin' With Me)

"MMmmmnnnn it feels so good to be me!" I said with a large smile on my face.
The final pieces are set and I can finally have my vengeance.
