"Oh dear, she's fading."

Lucifer landed, putting an arm around his daughter. The world seemed to slow down as he wrapped his wing around Vaggie.

Gently holding onto Vaggie, he noticed one last spell that was bothering her. It was Sera's behavior spell.

"We need to take her to Carmilla ASAP."

"OH COME ON, WE JUST LEFT THERE," Charlie yelled.

her eyes tearing up as she held onto her dad, holding on for dear life. Images of what happened at Carmilla's office flashed through her brain, causing the blond princess to shut her eyes in fear.

"Dad, how do we help her?"

Looking down at Vaggie Lucifer decided there was only one option, the demon king's eyes watered up as he realized what needed to happen.

"Charlie, we're gonna save her."

Charlie's eyes were shut tight, a lump in her throat making her unable to talk. Standing up, she grabbed her dad's arm, keeping her from falling again. Lucifer picked Vaggie up. He felt her small frame in his arms. So small, so light, dehydrated, and malnourished. Clutching his daughter-in-law, he used his magic to open the door.

Suddenly, there was a noise inside the hotel

Charlie and Lucifer looked up, the bright red and white eyes of Carmilla looking worriedly through the hotel, her footsteps getting faster and faster.

"OVER HERE," Lucifer yelled, recognizing Carmilla's voice

In a matter of minutes, Carmilla stood before them. Well, they thought it was Carmilla. Her hair was messy, her clothes ripped, and her skin cut. The hotel's lights were so dim both Lucifer and Charlie failed to see the golden blood on Carmilla's arms and clothes

"What happened to you?"

"That doesn't matter now," the tall weapon dealer said.

The pain souring through Carmilla's body weighed her down, falling down beside Charlie. Holding up Vaggie's hands, Carmilla's body struggled to stay couscous.

"Vaggie, i' going to save you. I promise, "

Vaggie screamed as she felt Sera's spell being sucked out of her body, grasping tightly onto Charlie, she knew she would be okay, but the feeling of the magic being ripped out of her body scared her. Her cries dampened as she felt her body give out.

"It's ok, Vaggie, it's just like in heaven, remember."

Comforted by Carmilla's words, Vaggie closed her eye, knowing that she was in good hands with the weapon dealer, her body struggling to hold up. Carmilla's gentle eyes were the last thing Vaggie saw before sleep took her. Remembering the time in heaven, the times that Carmilla had helped her clean up her self-harm scars.

Now that Vaggie was safe and peacefully sleeping, it wasn't a surprise that Carmilla had been harmed. Struggling to move, the scars on her body, and the cut clothing.

"Carmilla, now you need to open up. What happened to you?"

Carmilla could see the look of fear on the king's face, with a slight look of fear in her eyes Carmilla spoke up.

"It was right after Charlie and Vaggie left, Rosie and I were cleaning up the conference room. Rosie was switching between comforting Velvette and helping me. All the blood and flesh thrown around the room was too much for Velvette and me. By that time, Vox had already gone home because He had a TV segment to record.
Lucifer knows what the heaven he would be doing right after his boyfriend died. But because Velvette was so destroyed in. Decided to bring her back to the vee's tower. I had just brought her back before before Lute attacked. Her weapon ripped through my clothing like it was nothing. She knew I had killed the angel, it's why she was after me...she knew to destroy me...she knew she had to destroy my clothing and my weapon first, the thought of her getting killed was weighing deep on her mind. I could see it in her eyes, the fear and sorrow."

The pain in Carmilla's eyes was noticed by both Lucifer and Vaggie, who had now woken up. They knew just how distinctive angels could be. Especially lute.

the sight of her mentor being so hurt by her old friend... her sister... weighed heavily on Vaggie's mind. Juggling her emotions around the small angel, got up, silent, and detached from reality. She tried to shield Carmilla's wounds from the light. She knew Carmilla hid her angelic past from hell's citizens.

"It's ok, Vaggie, they can know."

Gently, Carmilla moved Vaggie's hands from her arm, showing Charlie and Lucifer her thick golden blood. The royals took a moment to get their thoughts together unsure of what to say, Charlie was the first to speak up.

"Are you?"
"Yes, prinses...I'm sorry,"

Lucifer got up, walked over to Carmilla, and gently put a hand on her shoulder.

"You're welcome here no matter what."

With a smile, Carmilla put her hand over Lucifers.

"Thank you, Your Majesty,"

"Call me Lucifer."
