(Neil)

Extermination day is almost here. Neil had recently figured out that he didn't die normally, in any sense of the word. He didn't die of poison, gunshot, choked to death, or even old age as most people would wish to go. He died in a way that made him much different than most souls. 

He found out about his powers. He knew that there were people down in hell that had powers, but he thought that had to do with ownership of souls. But that doesn't seem to be the case.

Sure he had power, but he sucked at using them. He scratches his head with a stick now because he doesn't want to blast his hair off. He wasn't really someone with much control over anything. 

He had a habit of not keeping his mouth shut when he should have and got fired a few times when he was alive. He also was extremely sensitive to touch. Point is he wasn't the right pick for someone to have power. He was just...not the right person. 

He went to the library and read through a few books on people with more than human like powers. And none of them mentioned a person with that kind of power losing it. It was just history of the reign the overlords and of the royal families that existed in hell.

There was a long history of overlords, most ended up dying in an extermination. Or by someone who got ahold of a angelic weapon. The largest amount of overlord deaths happened in the 1920s. When the radio demon revealed himself. 

The royal families were a different story. They're also known as the sins. There were only one who ever started families, Lucifer Morningstar. There is other demon royalty, such as the Von Eldritch family. Close friends to the Morningstars for a long time. But nothing else was said about it.

Then there was the Ars Goetia, a family of bird like demons

Then there was the Ars Goetia, a family of bird like demons. They're given a duty at a young age that they carry on into their adult lives. Most duties are an intellectual task, so they seemed like a crowd Neil could hang around. 

There were all sorts of groups, families, cults in hell. More variety of groups now then there were thousands of years ago.

That's something Neil was always thinking. He's in hell but carbon dating said the earth was billions of years old, and life was millions. So how could some of this stuff have only been thousands of years? He'll have to figure that out later. For now he had more important things to do. 

He decided he'd need to go to the highest ranking group someone like him could get to, the overlords. But that was tricky, overlords were usually running their businesses. And were usually unavailable. Fortunately he had been living in the doomsday district, where one was usually just partying. Missi Zilla or as people refer to her ,"Zeezi"(her name isn't really known so I'm gonna go with what everyone else calls her). She was likely partying in the club she set up in the center of the doomsday district. 

He decided that he might as well just get there quickly, so he began to run there. It was almost extermination day, so he had to not waste anymore time.
