TNT Duo AU Bingo: Part 1

Author's Notes: This is all part of a larger connected universe I'm working on called The Seven Sins AU, which is going to be an ongoing series of demon AUs all set under the same concepts with the roles flipped around on occasion. It'll be a while before the actual series of books gets posted but since I wanted to contribute to the ongoing TNT Duo AU Bingo, I decided now would be a great time to actually introduce the Seven Sins Universe. 
On that note, welcome to the first oneshot I wrote for the TNT Duo Bingo! The next few oneshots you'll see posted in this book are all part of the bingo stuff. 

Also, I was like...trying to keep this as a more funny light hearted oneshot when I started writing it but half way through I was...in a mood...and apparently decided I wanted Wilbur to suffer. 
So he doesn't have a good time, at all, :D

~~~~~~~~~

Wilbur was an angel of patience.

His wings were tinted with a very faint blue, much like the sky and clouds he lived in alongside his twin and his father.

He always implored patience in his day to day business as he flew from one end of the afterlife to the other. He was never in a rush, never rude, never angry. He was the picture of grace and elegance.

Is it any wonder that he was sent down to deal with a demonic presence interfering with humans? No, of course not. In fact, it was quite an honor to be sent down to deal with a threat like that. It was recognition of how closely you followed your virtue, a sign of trust and respect, showing that you are valued.

...Wilbur didn't feel so lucky. Not when he was confronted by the demon he was sent down to eliminate.

He was sent down alone, under the pretense that it should be a simple mission. All he had to do was dismantle the demon's hold on humans and then return.

It should've been that simple.

Nobody told him the demon had a massive den.

Nobody told him the demon had a labyrinth set up.

Nobody told him the area was crawling with minor demons lurking around every corner.

Nobody told him that he was dealing with a gods forsaken Demon Lord.

And a Demon Lord of Gluttony no less!

But it was fine, he was alright. Clearly the assignment had been messed up. There was no possible way he was in the right place, this had to be a job for an Archangel if there was a Demon Lord involved.

But by the time he had realized what was going on he was already trying to navigate his way out of the labyrinth. Having gotten dragged in by eager humans who didn't know what kind of danger they were in by simply being there.

Soon he was lost.

And now he had to try and find his way back.

But no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't find the exit.

Leading him into searching for the anchor of the den. If he could dismantle the anchor or otherwise destroy it the entire casino should come crashing down. And with the angelic protection he's been shoving onto any human he bumps into they should be okay or otherwise have made their way out by the time the building collapses. A little bit of divine intervention was fine here and there. He'd rather not kill a human on his first mission.
