Lucy falls to her knees once she's teleported them all to Hell. Her energy is draining away, faster and faster. And what's worse, she's starting to feel pain for the first time in her life.

Not just physically.

Her heart is broken.

"Get up," Jungkook snarls and yanks her back on her feet. "Ew, you look gross."

They all look at Lucy, who now has black veins spreading from her eyes and her eyes that turned back to the demonic black when they entered Hell are starting to fade to gray.

The boys look at each other and realize that their eyes have become black as well.

"Cool," Namjoon murmurs. "It's been a long time since we've looked like this."

"Where is he?" Taehyung snaps as he grabs hold of Lucy's arm as Jungkook keeps a hold on the other one.

"I'm right here," a deep growl comes from behind them.

The eight of them turn around and come face to face with the Devil.

His white eyes are watching the men carefully, going from one face to the next, until his eyes land on Lucy.

"Well, well, well..." he grins. "You've looked better."

"Well you've always looked ugly, brother," she says, smiling weakly as her legs start to shake under her.

"Did you boys finally come to your senses? I'm not the evil one. She is."

"Yeah, yeah. We know. We've come to make a deal," Taehyung says loudly.

"Haven't you heard that making deals with the Devil is dangerous, child?" Lucifer laughs. "But please, entertain me."

"Let us go back to Earth. Unharmed. Unbothered. And completely free from this place," Jimin says.

"What?" Lucy says, eyes widening. "No!"

"You don't want to fight for your thrones?" Lucifer asks, cocking his head to the side.

"We have no desire to fight you. We don't belong here. Never have. We don't care what happens to this place. Just let us live in peace and you can take your sister back and watch her die," Jungkook shrugs.

"Don't do this. Please. You have to fight him!" Lucy yells, coughing as blood sprays from her mouth and she falls to her knees.

Lucifer hums. "How do I know you aren't lying?"

"Enter our minds. You're strong enough to do that, right? Look and see. We aren't lying," Yoongi says coldly, not looking at Lucy as she turns to stare at him.

"Sure. But I'm not so gentle about it like my whore sister," he grins as he steps forward and grabs Namjoon by the throat.

He yelps in pain as Lucifer closes his eyes.

After a moment, he backs up. "Okay. Deal."

"Send us back," Jin says quietly.

"You don't want to say goodbye to your bitch? She'll be dead in a matter of minutes now."

"She's nothing to us. Not after everything she's done," Hoseok says. "Just let us go."

"Please... don't d-do this..." Lucy chokes out through the blood trickling from her mouth. "He... he won't l-let you live!"

Lucifer reaches down and grabs Lucy by the throat and pulls her into a standing position.

"Bye boys," he grins and waves his hand. They all disappear leaving Lucy and Lucifer alone.

"They really are idiots," Lucifer rolls his eyes. "Why do you care so much for people who are that stupid?"

She laughs and spits blood in his face. "Guess you'll never find out."

"Oh, dear sister," Lucifer chuckles darkly. "You really think I would let you die? Come on now."

"W-what?"

He grins widely. "I can stop that poison. And the way to stop it is actually perfect."

"What-"

Lucy screams out in pain as Lucifer digs his hand into her chest.

"You see," he says quietly as blood runs down his arm. "The poison of that blade doesn't infect the body. It infects the soul. So if I remove your poisoned soul from your body, then your body will heal."

"Don't-"

"I know, I know. The monster you will become after I remove your soul will be put to very good use. Don't worry, sister," he laughs as he pulls her soul from her chest.

Blackened, cracked and broken in his hands.

Lucy's eyes immediately turn from a dull gray to a blood red and the black veins on her body disappear as the cut in her side heals instantly.

He drops her to the ground and she lands silently to her feet, staring at her brother with an emotionless look on her face.

"Now," Lucifer says, staring at his sister. "Let's give those boys some time to settle back down. Let's make them think they're free. And when I want to, I'll send you back to them. And you'll bring them to me."

She stares blankly at him.

"They will never be free from me. And you're going to be the one to put them back into their cells. Yes?"

"Gladly," she smiles, but the emotion doesn't reach her eyes.
