Narrator's POV~

A hooded figure entered the dark chasms of hell, amidst the moans and groans of the banished souls. There was nothing but darkness everywhere. At the end of the chasm, there was a faint bloody red glow.

"Carter.. you disappoint me..." a familiar voice wracked the figure's brain, sending a steely cold edge in his thoughts. "You are not my son....." the voice rumbled.  

The hooded figure reminded himself that these were just the moans of the spirits, trying to make him mad, and then occupy his body. Souls that have been chained in this wretched place, those who wanted to live nad wreak havoc into earth again.

Carter tried to ignore all the voices, and finally, he reached hell's archway. An archway made of decaying bodies and skulls. Not to mention powerful dark auras.

'This is where I'll meet my benefactor eh?' he thought. He shuddered as he passed through the entrance. Those dead eyes seemed to follow him. 

Then another hooded figure met him at the end of the archway.

"Are you the one the cardinal is expecting?" the figure spoke. There was a weird clicking noise whenever he spoke.

"Yes, I am" Carter nodded.

"This way.." the hooded figure led him deeper inside. There he saw a few demons walking by. They had a reddish tinge on their skin, black eyes with no pupils, black wings, and wearing different weapons made of black metal.

"Ah, Carter.." a voice rumbled at the other side. "Glad that you could come" a man from the altar  descended to meet him. He was a tall man, with the black robes of a priest, and, a gaunt face that made you shudder if you looked to long. However, Carter stared at the man facing him.

And so, Carter removed his hood, revealing his blond hair and piercing blue eyes.

"You are still wearing a priest's clothes?" he scoffed. "That's an insult to the upper world. I thought that a demon like you would never be caught wearing the holy robes of a priest"

"My, my. You have a very shrewd personality" the cardinal said. "Just like my son, Caleb. He disappointed me. He was a son of a demon! He should be proud! And yet, he's made a contract with that wretched Virtue of an angel!" he raged.

"And now he's out to destroy me" he seethed. 

"So what do you want me to do?" Carter asked. "Cardinal Constantine?" The cardinal heard his name and seemed to calm down.

"This.." he waved his hand, and an image of a girl with long honey-colored hair smiling with her friends. "Is Haniel. The Virtue who made a contract with Caleb"

"And?" Carter prodded.

"I need you to destroy her. But for now, spy on her for a little while" the Cardinal smiled hungrily. "And when she trusts you so......"

"I understand.." Carter bowed.

"Oh, and I wonder how their relationship would end up" Constantine mused, turning his back from Carter. "When Caleb realizes that the person he loved the most is still here?"

"What do you mean?" Carter asked, puzzled.

"Come here, my dear..." Constantine called. A veiled figure of a beautiful girl with black hair emerged from nowhere. She giggled at the sight of Caleb's shock.

"Hello, Lucrezia..." Constantine purred, touching her face. "You'll be seeing Caleb soon"

"Really?!" Lucrezia seemed excited. "I'll see him?"

"Yes. You'll be able to see your true love..."

"My true love..." the girl repeated ecstatically. She smiled greedily.

"Now go.." Constantine ordered Carter, who bowed rather stiffly. And he vanished.
