"But, sadly, I don't want to fight any of you. So I must decline. Also, I don't want to reach true Immortality. It isn't something I strife for. Therefore, I must go." With a poof, he is gone.
"Wow, your Plan went really great..." I say to Admora.
She only shrugs and answers, "But what Plan, your Highness? I didn't suggest anything, you only did. And why did we even need him anyway? We can just rule this World alone, together. No one could ever disturb us."
But suddenly we hear many loud screams of terror coming out of the Human Castle, but how? It's so far away, it shouldn't be audible to us at this distance...
I fly up and use my Sharp Senses to see the Castle Burning, and someone flying over it. A Demon, but not any Demon, it's the Crown Prince, or how I once knew him, as my Best Friend that I killed. So even he turned into a Demon. But why would he attack everyone? He hasn't turned into a Monster, thus he still must have reason in him... so why?
At that Moment I see him looking at me. He flies at supersonic speed at me and in only a few seconds he is at my position, where I stand.
But he doesn't attack me, rather he kneels down, in the Air?
I don't really understand what's going on but he at least seems to be peaceful around me.
I command him to stop his attacks at once and to tell me what the Hell is going on here, and his reasoning for his Aggression.
"I only did as you Commanded, your Majesty..." He says in an almost Brainwashed and Trance Like Voice. I wonder who did this to him.
But now, I remember, since I got almost all my Memories back, I know what I have done. Something utterly unforgivable. But... why do I think this way? Wasn't it Justice what I have done, wasn't it the right thing to do? ... did I even feel anything while I did this to him back then?
It doesn't matter, nowadays I regret it. I commanded him, back then, to destroy every Human settlement there is and to kill and slaughter every last Human being he sees. I hypnotized him, so that he is forced to do it, since he disobeyed me and I wanted to get rid of him for his strong Power. I wanted to see him suffer, I wanted to see him swim in many sins. But I regret it.
I lift the Hypnosis, but nothing happens. Is it already too late? Has time already put a stain into his Soul? Did his Mind and Soul break?
He looks up to me, tears in his eyes, but not tears of regret, but tears of sadness and happiness. He seems to be sad about what he has done, but also happy to finally be free.
"Do you hate me now?" I ask him carefully.
He shakes his head, only saying, "No, I don't hate you, I know that you couldn't feel anything back then, like I already said. But, I still feel sad about all those Families, all those Souls that I utterly slaughtered. Please, if there is anything I can do to repent these sins, please tell me!" He looks up to me, his eyes full of pain, sorrow and grief.
"Don't worry, your sins will be forgiven, I am the Devil, your Empress, Am I not?" I smile at him and pat his head. I hope he will recover soon, he will be a great and loyal asset to my new Empire.
"Also, I regret what I did back then, I am truly sorry." I say this to him with a strong ache inside my Heart, a Pain I have never felt before, I feel like I'm going to collapse. My eyes are going black.
After what felt like an Eternity, I finally wake up again. But my surroundings are neither familiar nor unfamiliar. I see a white ceiling with neon lights and a rhythmic beeping sound next to me.
Wait! Am I in a Hospital? But how?!
Weren't I supposed to be back in my World, talking to my once Best Friend?
I look around, or at least try to, I can barely move.
The only thing I see, is that it is early in the Morning and that I'm definitely in a Hospital.
I still don't understand, how did I end up here? Was all I saw just a Dream?
But before I could collect all my thoughts, someone walked into my Room.
