Another few days had passed and each passing day, the world became a little bit more chaotic. The possessions increased and were getting more and more. The riots were becoming worse, people crowding and traveling to the Vatican City just to prove their point.
Miles Pennington, the miracle baby, as they all called him, was brought to the Vatican for safety purposes. As people begged to see him and as they treated him like the new Jesus, we continued to see him on the media. They would wash his feet, people praying for him and parading him around just for others to see.
If the Vatican City stopped Miles from his rounds, more chaos happened. Bibles were burnt, people chanting that Jesus Christ wasn't the real savior. Judas was God, Judas allowed Jesus Christ to ascend as he was the one who fulfilled the prophecy of Jesus going back to heaven and that Judas died a noble death—so on and so forth.
Bibles were considered fake, any bible that had portrayed Judas as a betrayer was set on fire.
None of us knew what to do. Kyungsoo told us that we'd do our part—that it was a bigger problem than all of us put together before he disappeared for a while. We thought we did enough, Matthew and I relaxing one night before I told him to come with me to the grocery store.
Baekhyun and Chanyeol were told to clean the living room as we left.
The walk to the grocery store was short-lived and uneventful and as I walked up the slope with Matthew, I felt a shiver run up my body. Matthew looked at me, a hand going to rub my arm softly to protect me from the cold when we entered the building.
But even as we made our way towards the apartment, I felt a heavy feeling in my stomach, a sudden feeling of nausea rushing through me. I doubled over, Matthew grabbing my arm to steady me as we walked to the apartment.
The moment the door swung open; I knew that we had visitors.
No, not Grim Reapers, no.
Something more.
One step into the apartment, I saw Chanyeol and Baekhyun cowering at the corner. Six figures turned to look at us; unfamiliar faces that studied me carefully. Another wave of nausea washed through me and my knees buckled, Matthew gasping in surprise at the arrival of new visitors.
"Sensitive to demon energy," one of them said and my body shook when a woosh could be heard. Footsteps from behind me came closer, Kyungsoo rapidly coming towards my apartment with Peniel behind me, asking me if they were there.
"T-They?" I stuttered, my body feeling weak as I looked up. They all looked at me, their eyes flashing red. "W-Who are they?"
"Bora," Kyungsoo began carefully. "They are the ones who'll help us with what is going to happen. The fallen angels of heaven."
"Oh, just say demon. Fallen angels are demons," one of the women crooned, stepping forward and giving me a wink. "Asmodeus, the demon of Lust."
[Asmodeus, Lust]
Lust had red hair and a smirky grin, the female running her eyes over me as I gasped for breath.
"Poor girl," she murmured, turning to the woman beside her. "How sad. She is rather sexy, isn't she?"
"Leviathan, Envy." The woman beside her ignored her comment. She had black hair and high cheekbones. "That is Satan, he's in charge of wrath."
[Cough, lucy liu, cough]
Satan was a black stout man with headphones on, the demon giving me one look and looking away like he was disgusted by me.
"I'm Belphegor, in charge of Sloth," Another man said; black hair and messy stubble. He looked like he spaced out a lot.
"Mammon, in charge of Greed," another man said, flexing his tan bulky muscles in the moonlight as he stood by the window. "She? She's the clairvoyant medium assigned to his case?"
"Oh, don't be judgmental, Greed," a voice popped up. The person who spoke was buff and looked like he was the strongest of them all. His chocolate brown skin the same shade as Satan."Beelzebub, in charge of Gluttony. We are the embodiments of the sins. Arch angels, fallen angels, demons, as you call us."
Beelzebub, in charge of Greed, gave me a small bow and I blinked rapidly, gripping the coffee table by the entrance so tightly until my knuckles turned white.
"Oh, poor child. Allow me," Asmodeus, the demon of lust walked up to me. Her red hair swayed back and forth, the woman grabbing my chin as I hiccupped. "Would love to see what is under those clothes..."
She murmured, a hand gripping my chin tightly as her eyes flashed red.
"But I need you to relax," she breathed and just like that, my body began to buzz. I felt a wave of arousal wash through me and I almost melted into her arms, the female giggling. "Sadly, you're very straight."
"What did I tell you about messing with people's sexuality?" The other female said but it helped and I found myself being led to the couch.
"Lust, Greed, Wrath, Gluttony, Sloth, Envy..." I could hear Kyungsoo whispering under his breath. "There are seven sins, where is the seventh?"
"Seventh?" I asked, Matthew's hand going to press against my forehead. At the corner of my eye, I could see Baekhyun and Chanyeol still cowering in the corner. "Seventh?"
"Seventh, pretty girl. Sadly, we did not invite Pride. He's a very busy man." Asmodeus dragged a finger up my arm and I shivered, the demon of Lust giving me a wink when a sudden gust of air sounded. "I take that back—"
"He's here," Peniel sounded panicked and my head snapped to the side to see that the door had swung open. A tall man stood by the entrance, looking like he was going to raise hell—to which, I bet he could because one step into the room, all the other demons held their breath.
"And that, everybody, is our leader," Asmadeous; Lust whispered. "Lucifer. In charge of Pride."
[Lucifer, 1/7 SINS. Pride]
