It like physically pains me to watch hazbin hotel. wHy aRe thErE so ManY sONgs? half of them are so hard to watch without second hand embarrasment.

You'd grown silent over the last few days, trying to figure out if Alastor was serious or not. Or if what you had seen had even been real... if it was.

What did it mean?

What did Malcom mean?

What did you mean to Alastor?

How was this going to affect you- how would it affect the boys? Your unborn children crossed your mind once more, and you drew a hand over the swollen bump on your body. Not to mention the fact that your body had been aching periodically for the past day, you felt miserable. "Mel, for the love of all that's good and pure will you pay attention?!" A voice snapped suddenly, making you look up to see an annoyed Azrael.

"Sorry, I'm just, distracted."

"We know, you have been for a week. Honestly, what's gotten into you?" Azrael snorted, making you let out a sigh. 

"It's nothing you should worry about. You wouldn't be able to help anyway. I'll just talk to my dad about it when we eventually get back to hell." You assured the man, he looked like he wanted to press further, but chose not to. With a sigh, you stood and followed after him, finding that the other two were eating fruit, waiting for their brother to return.

Throughout this entire journey, it felt as though the rest of you had been practically useless with the exception of Michael and Lucifer. There was absolutely no reason for any of you to attempt to follow him, it would take weeks for any of you to return to either heaven or hell.

All that was left to do, was wait.

But even against the fight with the Oni, whether it was simply because Lucifer refused to let you help or he just wanted to do it himself, none of you had been much help.

You'd never felt this useless in your life.

If this is what's she's doing to you, then maybe you should leave her in the dust like you intended to months ago.

Was Malcom right-

"MEL!" Azrael snapped again.

"I'm listening!" You shot back, making the angel let out a frustrated sigh.

"Lucifer should be able to open the rune soon, stay on your toes-" 

Almost as if on cue, a small ball of white light appeared until it expanded into a white ring of light. Then on the other side, Lucifer appeared, his eyes glowed and he seemed to be struggling to keep the gateway open, so none of you wasted any time. 

Azrael, Raphael and Amenadiel all spread their wings and jumped through, Azrael hadn't given you a chance to summon your own wings and grabbed your wrist, hauling you through the gate back into the red sky of hell.

The feeling of falling enveloped your body and fear shot through you, but there was nothing that could be done about it.

As the rune gate closed, it sent a shockwave across the red sky and into the ground, making you all plummet towards the ground. As you were falling you saw your father try to reach out and gain control of the fall, but the ground was approaching too fast. You hit the dirt, landing on your side, sending roaring pain through your body as you tried to get your breath back. 

The pain in your stomach returned,  stealing the breath from you.

Maybe you should tell someone, but there were bigger problems at hand, there was likely still an oni roaming around hell, and if the ones in the rune were targeting Lucifer, the one in hell likely was aswell.
