What Once Was

Chapter 42- A Nightmare's Premonition

-Lucifer POV-

A few fixes here, and a few fixes over here will surely create something so beautiful and breath taking that I-

"Daddy...." I turned to the end of the room, towards the door where she pried the door open with her small hands. Her red eyes staring right through my soul, as I stared back at her, motionless, and surprised she would be awake at this hour.

-centuries ago-

"... My Little Apple, what are you doing up so late." I asked her as I stretched out my arm to her, letting her know she was more than welcome to come in, though I don't know if Lillith would agree for her to up right now. Nothing than a little puppy look from both of us could fix.

"I had a weird dream..." She said as I cradled her in my arms giving her small kisses on her forehead, hoping to ease her little worries.

"I'm so sorry My Little One. Would you like to tell me about them or would you like me to tell you a story?"

"Tell me a story! Tell me a story!" She replied giddily as she kicked her little feet around., her little giggling sounding like wind chimes.

"Okay which one would you like me to tell you," I cleared my desk, cleaning up from the other creation I was doing, and with my finger did I manifest my magic, which somewhat resembled golden sand.

"A happy story! Like .... Uh .... How you first saw Mommy! In the garden of even?"

"Garden of Eden My Little One." I corrected her. I created what I remembered, various tall green trees, the occasional bushes, the small little critters, and the grand majestic sun. Then I proceeded to recreate Lillith, though I would never be able to fully grasp all of her beauty through my magic; There was no way I could.

"You certainly like me to tell you this story huh?" I asked her, and perhaps this, made it easier to know since me and Lilliths banishment wasn't exactly romantic to God or the Angels.

Tall, and slender, with her beautiful blonde hair that reached almost to her legs, and flowed by itself as if it was magic. Sparkles emanated from her small replica to add to the effect of how I saw her.

"Sparkly!!!" Charlie chimed in as she stretched out her little hands to her. I made the mini Lillith have a small mind of its own, and she decided to run around us both to which Charlie loved, then ran back to the garden where she sat on a patch of grass and small critters followed her, wanting to be touched by her.

"Long, long, and loooooooong ago.... God and the Angels, wanted there to be life, and this created the Earth..." I created above the mini Lillith a small golden colored replica of the world, which rotates by itself. Charlie was still too young to know all the facts about the story, but for now this simple story would have to do. There was no need for me to overwhelm her with the dates me and her Mom endured.

"Oooooo..."

"The first two creations were Adam... and of course Mommy!"

"Who was Adam?" Charlie asked. An asshole. But of course I couldn't say that at least not yet.

"He was Mommy's oh Uhm really bad friend! You already know this!" I told her as I ruffle up her hair and she giggled. She had to know after all the times I had told her.

"I know! It's just I think it's funny how mad you get." She wriggled a giggle as I kept ruffling her hair, while the small mini Adam stood far from Lillith.

"Ok Miss Little Smarty Pants, tell me what happened next." I tell her as we turn to look at the mini Lillith.

"Hmmm... well you had first seen Mommy after God told you to briefly look at them... I think it was at the bottom of a waterfall." She said as the mini Lillith ran to the waterfall. And of course, I came in flying by. I remember that sunny day and how I was dreading to wear my tunic and thought I would be drenched in sweat. Back when I was still one of them. I suddenly felt like my current pants and white button up collared shirt were burning my skin.
