Mental Battles -Pokemon-

Epilogue

For what seemed like an eternity, Lucifer stared at Emilia's lifeless body. This was his fault. He killed her. He could have disobeyed Cedric and saved her. But why didn't he? Why did he follow Cedric, despite knowing how bad his actions were? Why did he let a horrible person order him to kill his love?

"I'm..." Lucifer said, as if Emilia could hear him. "I'm sorry..." He broke down into sobs for the first time, letting all the pain out. Cedric forced him to hold in his tears all his life, but he was tipped over the edge, now.

He wanted to save her from the start. He thought that no one deserves to kill people against their will, so he travelled with her and killed them for her, hoping it would be the first step in cutting all of her toes with Cedric. He made himself in to a food loving pervert who loved to piss Emilia off, and he became more like that fake personality until that was him. Then he saw how Emilia tried so hard to be someone she obviously wasn't, and he wanted to help her. He saw how she longed to be a calm, collected, and rational person, even if she was practically the complete opposite. She was a short tempered teen who had zero tolerance for anything she didn't like, yet she still managed to seem like a nice person to Lucifer.

"Arceus, I'm such a-an idiot!" he said, burying his face in his hands.

Well, seeing as Emilia killed someone, she'll probably end up in the Distortion World, and so will Lucifer, when he dies.

He doesn't want to end his life by his own hand, but Cedric said he'd kill Lucifer if he ever tried to stop him...

"Cedric!" Lucifer shouted, gently placing Emilia on the ground.

"What, Lucifer?" Cedric replied from the other room. Lucifer stormed over to him and grabbed his neck. Cedric dropped a beer bottle in shock and glared at Lucifer.

"You're not going to win, I'll avenge Emilia. I'll--"

Cedric punched Lucifer square in the jaw, ignoring his words. Lucifer fell to the ground, unprepared to endure that strong punch. "Remember what I said, you piece of trash? I'll kill you if you try to stop me."

"I don't care," Lucifer said, standing back up. "You made me kill Emilia. Heck, you made me kill over ten people, but you went over the line with Emilia. The last person I kill will be you." He was bluffing, of course, but he needed to seem realistic.

"That's it, you worthless scumbag," Cedric said, picking up a shard of glass from the broken beer bottle. "I'm going to end you."

Lucifer shouted in surprise when in an instant, the glass was protruding from his chest. He doubled over in pain, but he was still alive. He put one hand on his knee, then looked up at Cedric with a smirk.

"Is that all you got?" he asked tauntingly, trying to act as if he didn't want to curl up and cry from the pain.

"You got a death wish or something?" Cedric asked, punching his jaw and knocking him to the ground.

Cedric put a jagged shard of glass into Lucifer. Lucifer's silver eyes met Cedric's brown, and he whispered, "Yes, I do, actually..."

•~•~•~•~

"Lucifer, it goes without saying where you belong," Arceus said, rolling his eyes. He was not at all surprised that the teen was happy to go to the Distortion World. "Have a good time 'suffering for an eternity' with your girlfriend."

"Will do, God-senpai!" Lucifer shouted obnoxiously, following the escorts down to the Distortion World.

"Arceus should put you in Heaven for eternal suffering..." one escort angel said.

"Hey, let him be with his girl!" The other one said. The first angel rolled her eyes and threw Lucifer down to the ground of the Distortion World.

"Welcome to paradise," she said sarcastically before flying away with the other angel. Lucifer quickly got up and ran around, searching for Emilia.

Within a minute, she saw her on the ground, sobbing into her hands.

"Hey, sweetheart," he said with a smirk and a wink. Emilia looked up from her hands, staring at Lucifer wide eyed in shock. Seeing her with puffy red eyes and tears streaming down her face made him sad, but he continued. "Crying's no fun, cheer up."

"Lucifer...?" She asked in shock. Should she be happy to see the man who killed two of her friends and herself?

"You might not forgive me, yet..." He sighed, just assuming she hated him. "But I was forced to, and I regretted it so much that I held you for probably a solid hour, cried a lot, and bluffed until Cedric killed me."

"Wow." Emilia said. "So, he forced you to do that?"

"Yeah..." Lucifer replied. "But whether you forgive me or not, you're stuck with me forever."

"I think I'll be able to tolerate you," Emilia replied with a chuckle.

"Well, I think I deserve a hug for being killed with shard of a beer bottle."

"I think I deserve much more than just a hug for being killed by you."

"I'll kiss you, then," Lucifer said, smirking.

"What, I didn't mean it like that!" Emilia shouted. "You don't get to hug me or kiss me, idiot."

"One day," Lucifer replied.

"Maybe one day," Emilia said. "But probably not."

OH MY GLOB, THE BOOK IS OVER ;~;

What do you think? Please leave a brutally honest review! I don't care if you only say bad things, I just want your honest opinion. :D

Don't expect the sequel to be up for at least a few weeks, too. I need to plan out each individual chapter, still. But, I will have more time to write Your Favourite Martian until then! So I will still be writing, but the sequel won't be up.

SPEAKING OF WHICH, IT'S SHAMELESS SELF PROMOTION TIME! GO READ MY BOOK, YOUR FAVOURITE MARTIAN. IT'S REALLY STUPID OUO

Anyways, I'd say the latest the sequel will be out is mid July, but I seriously doubt it'd take that long. Expect it around mid June, maybe.

Anyway, see you in the next book... ;w;

Edit 5/31/15- I know I wrote this, like, four days ago, but I was also running on two days of no sleep XD trust me, the first version of these last three chapters are horrible. Also, I don't know why I'm editing the epilogue first, but I am. ouo
