Who am i?

Goodbye

I just looked up at him. When I was so close to victory everything backfired. Derek stood up slowly. He was completely healed. Any angel could heal another instantly but not themselves. You could only be healed by an outside source.
Damn it... Zoey.. Sky.. Della.. Dayrie.. everyone.. I'm sorry.
"I told you, Dante, that some angels wouldn't agree with your view and may even try to kill you."
"What about God?! What does he have to say about this?!"
"God isn't doing a thing to help you. We didn't even need to ask him for all this. He's just standing by."
"That's not true!"
He kicked me down to the ground.
"Finish him, Derek. Then we cab start to make this world a new and luxurious place t-"
All I felt was a warm liquid on my cheek. When I looked up I saw Derek's hand through Zacharias chest. His chest was letting out a bright light. I didn't even believe what I just witnessed.
"What did you do?!"
"I killed him."
"Why?! He saved you!"
"It isn't fair. Now since I'm at my peak and you aren't then I need to heal you."
He slowly reached his hand out. As soon as he touched me I would be healed. I needed to be at my peak to face him again. His fingers touched my chest and I felt a rush of relief and security. When it was over I looked around my body to find any scratches or wounds but their were none.
"Get up. We must finish this."
"Derek we don't have to fight. Not again."
"Yes..we do."
He sucker punched me down to the ground.
"Please. Prophecy is not faith."
"You're one to talk. You're here fighting the devil."
"You're not the devil."
"Closest thing to him right now."
"Agh!" I stood up and kneed him repeatedly in the stomach before throwing him away.
"Just shut up will you."
"Make me, angel."
"I don't make trash. I burn it."
I concentrated my grace and lifted my arm toward him.
"No..I decintegrate it."
I let out the power and all I could see was a big flash of light. When it was set and done I saw his body laying on the ground.
It's over...
I got on my knees and sighed in relief. I closed my eyes and focused on Zoey. Before I even knew it I was in her arms.
"Dante.."
"Are you ok?"
"I'm ok. I'm guessing it's over."
"I think it is. How is everyone?"
I looked around to see that everyone around the bunker was ok. I walked outside and sent the angels back to heaven.
"Did anything happen while I was away?"
"No. Just worried about you."
I turned around the second I felt the presence again.
"You."
"Hello, Dante."
"What do you want now, tracker?"
"The battle isn't over. You must finish him."
"I did. Derek is gone."
"I didn't mean Derek."
My eyes widened as I put two and two together. He said the final battle would start the next time we met but he didn't specify who it was. I met Derek and Lucifer on the same day so I just thought he meant Derek. But no, I was wrong he meant...
"Lucifer."
"That's correct. Go and finish off the fallen angel."
"But he never came out! The vessel is dead."
"The vessel is dead. He does not need it to be alive."
I fell to my knees in fear. If fighting Derek was this hard...then what about the center of all his power..
"Damn it."
"It's ok. You can still end him. End this entire apocalypse in your world."
"Just so you can move on to the next?!"
"Dante, what are you talking about?" Zoey asked as everyone gathered around us.
"This won't be the end. We will just be killing another world if not ours. Some of you don't know this but if I win then our world is saved. But they will move on to another. Another battle..another war.."
"That's correct. But don't you all value your lives over anything else?"
I turned to face the tracker. I narrowed my eyes at him and vanished. I was back at the field. But the body was gone.
"Lucifer! Come out!"
"You finally call to me, son of God."
I turned around to see the once full of life body of Derek now filled with a dark presence. His eyes were pitch black and his voice was like a million people talking at once.
"I might be his son but so are you."
"I am not his son. I am the God of wrath."
"But it doesn't have to be this way."
"Yes. It does."
He touched my forehead with his finger and I felt a drop of blood come down from my nose. Then I felt a rush of power pass through my body. It sent my flying through the air. When I landed I was at the center of a giant crater that the fall had made. When I opened my eyes I saw a dark angel above me. It was him. Lucifer.
"Dante, son of God, slave to the angels, you will die here. No one shall survive my reign. Goodbye.."
He lifted both arms toward the sky as if he was calling something. Their were clouds and thunder roaring around him. He was calling my death. The last thing I saw before blacking out was a flash of black lightning. All I see now is darkness. But I wasn't alone. Michael was with me.
So we lost?
We lost from the start, Michael.
Why is that?
Because either way we fought for salvation we killed people. In our world or in another.
I see. You don't wish to kill. But this war was good.
Michael...their is no such thing as a good war.
You have a point. But we can still fight.
Why?
To save everyone. To give them all peace.
But I'm dead.
Do you feel dead?
I feel sadness.
When you are dead you cannot feel anything. People say it is the ultimate peace. Are you willing to change that?
I closed my eyes for a minute to gather my thoughts. I opened my eyes slowly.
"LUCIFER!!!!"
"YOU DARE CALL MY NAME, SON OF GOD?"
I flew up to him with the speed of a bullet. I grabbed him by the collar and knocked him down to the ground.
"YOU DARE TO LOOK DOWN ON ME, FALLEN ANGEL?!"
"I AM A GOD!"
In a blink of an eye I was on top of him.
"YOU ARE JUST A SMALL BRAT, THROWING A TEMPER TANTRUM!"
I punched him repeatedly not letting him make a move. When I was done I threw him high up to the air and blasted him down. I spread my wings and flew to him.
"I'll give you just what you deserve, Lucifer."
"Are you going to cast judgment on me, son of God?!"
"No. Only the creator may cast judgment."
"Then what will you do with me? You don't have what it takes to end this."
"That's what you think. I will banish you. The one thing anyone would hate worse than death is to be captured and held for eternity."
"You think you can actually hold me?" He laughed like a maniac.
"No. A human doesn't stand a chance against one of the first arch angels. But another does."
I closed my eyes and released him. Released heavens ultimate weapon and warrior.
Michael!!!!
I hear you Dante!! I'll take it from here!!
Michael's P.O.V
When I opened my eyes I was on top of my brother.
"Hello, Michael."
"Hello, Lucifer."
"It's been a long time. And here I was thinking that you were done fighting me."
"It would seem that even I cannot go against faith."
"So you're going to kill me again? Killing your brother over and over again must be dreadful. So tell me, brother, who's really living in a hell?"
His words cut me right to the very center of my being. The thing that hurt was not of what he said it was of how much he was right.
"Goodbye, Lucifer."
My eyes glowed bright as I pull all my strength into my fist. I clenched for dear life and hit him with everything I had. Before I made contact with him he smiled at me. He did not need to use words but I knew that he was sorry. After all my power was let out their was a huge ray of light that shot out into the sky. What was left after was immense destruction. Lucifer's body was still in one peace. No matter what world or how much power I used he was just defeated. Never killed. I grabbed his body and took him away. In hell he would just be let out again. In heaven he would be let out by nonbelievers. I needed to take him somewhere as old as the other angels. As old as Lucifer himself.
*5 hours later*
Derek's P.O.V
When I regained control I couldn't remember anything except for the big flash of light.
Michael.. You still there?
Yes, Dante.
What happened?
I have Lucifer locked up for all of eternity.
Really?
Yes.
So what's gonna happen to you?
I shall return to heaven. They need me.
I see. So I'll become human again?
Actually I'm going to leave you with my abilities. With no Lucifer to threaten this world their is no need for me to intervene anymore.
Thank you, Michael.
Before I go I need to tell you something.
What is it?
When Lucifer was cast out of heaven and fell he was not alone.
What does that mean?
It means that other angels chose to fallow him when he refused to bow down to humanity and refused to obey God.
Fallen angels?
We call them Fallen. But yes. Angels betrayed God.
After Lucifer I'm not surprised.
Find them, Dante. You are now the new arch angel.
You have my word. Goodbye.
Goodbye.
I felt like part of my being was just released. I saw what looked like a beautiful white cloud float up into the sky.
I'll find them. All of them.
