This is my first radioapple story..I'm not the best of writers but do try so I hope you enjoy it

Things were going good for lucifer..he finally had a talk with his daughter and was back into her life now and he couldn't have been happier, as much as he would deny it he did suffer from bad stages of depression. But who could blame him
The things he's been through in his life..the fall and losing his first friends and family to make another one. And things were great and when a little bundle of joy was added to his life he thought he was going to die of happiness, Charlie was his entire world when she was growing up..until she wasn't, Lilith turned Charlie against him using her manipulation of words, nothing bad just made up things that he was to busy for them or something else. When in reality Lilith was the one keeping him from seeing Charlie.

In a blink of an eye it felt like, Charlie was a young lady of her own now, 21 years old and running a hotel..had a girlfriend, and new friends....a bell boy he wanted nothing more then to snap out of existence. And lucifer had missed all of that and was going to do whatever he could to get back his relationship with his daughter and catch up on all he's missed.

(Fast forward to the fight)

"This battle was cute and all..but it's time for you to die with the rest of your friends," Adam said with a laugh before being punched and sent flying off and crashing against the wall.
"Dad?" Charlie asked as she looked up and saw lucifer hovering there, holding her hand. He looked over her and smiled warmly at her
"I told you appleseed... you are worth everything to me, and I will always protect you," he said before continuing the battle. Everything was going good.. until it happened

"You think your so dam special don't you..you should be bowing down to me, I'm fucking Adam, the first man!" Adam yelled out as him and lucifer were fighting against each other. He took his weapon and did a massive slash at lucifer who dodged it with a little effort
"Is that the best you can do...can't even hit me" lucifer said with a small giggle to toy with him farther, only to hear Adam chuckle himself and in a instant worry started to take place.
"You'll find that I hit my target"

Lucifers eyes were instantly darting around looking for what he was talking about and when he saw it...his heart instantly stopped and his breath got caught in his throat.
"N..no..nono" on the ground laid his one and only precious little appleseed. He shot off as fast as he could flying down beside her, grabbing her hand and holding it.
She had a deep gash that ran all the way across her body and had blood running out of her mouth. Lucifer watched in horror as the golden puddle was growing quickly around her.
"Charlie...baby please...please hang in there" he cried out trying desperately to hold back a sob as tears moved down his face.
"CHARLIE!" He looked up to see a traumatized Vaggie running towards him, ignoring the battle going on around them. She skidded to her knees beside her and grabbed Charlie's other hand
As much as he truly hated it he knew the wound was to severe even for his magic. A ragged breath drew his attention as his head snapped up to see her pale face looking at him.
"D..dad.."
"Yes baby..I'm right here" he said as he scooted closer to her
"I..I'm sorry" she said barely audible
"Nonono..you have nothing to be sorry for..don't you dare apologize...just..stay with me..we need you appleseed" lucifer said in a choked voice as he watched the life slowly fade away.
"L..love..you..all..." was the last thing she muttered before her breathing ceased..
"Charlie...baby c'mon...this isn't funny!" Vaggie cried out as she shook her shoulders. Lucifer...was just a mess, the tears where streaming down his face as his brain had skidded to a halt...not 10 minutes ago he said that he would always protect her from harm...and he failed, he failed as a father.
The sadness and guilt combusted into pure rage and adrenaline as his eyes glowed red and his horns sprouted from his head with fire burning between them, the area around him grew hot as his body began to shake and he looked up at the sky and let out a yell that was so powerful it came out more like the roar making the ground shake. He shot up like a rocket making a b-line for Adam now with only one desire in his mind...revenge.
Adam didn't even have time to react before he felt a tail wrap around his neck cutting on his air supply, the slim tail from lucifer coiled around his neck holding him as he leaned in.
"You....took away....everything from me" he said coldly as he stared into Adam's eyes.
"You are not getting spared...and you will burn in hell..I don't care of the punishment heaven will set fourth" he said as his tail was growing tighter around Adam's neck and Adam felt the tail increasing in temperature and starting to burn his neck as he desperately tried to pry it away.
Lucifer stared at him and watched as his struggles slowly died off and not long after his body went limp. He uncoiled his tail and watched as he plummeted to the ground and landed with a thud in a cloud of dust...and he just sat there staring at the dead body for a moment before moving back to Charlie. The exorcist called for a retreat and left after watching Adam die.
Landing back on the ground he saw Charlie's friends around her, everyone had tears in their eyes...they couldn't believe that their friend was gone...sir pentious had passed as well and it was tragic...but Charlie was the one who brought them together in the first place. Lucifer moved to join, seeing Charlie's head resting in Vaggies lap as she looked down upon her girlfriend..her face void of emotions...broken
Lucifer moved beside her and put a hand on her shoulder softly
"I...I'm sorry...I failed you...my little appleseed" he forced out as a lump formed in his throat.

Later on that day the hotel had been rebuilt. None of them was going to let Charlie's dreams die with her and would stop at nothing to make them happen.

Lucifer was walking down the hall to his room when alastor appeared in front of him
"Salutations my fellow short man!" He said cheerfully.
"I'm not in the mood Al..." Lucifer mumbled out looking at the ground
"My my..what's got the short king so sad, are you acting like your heiGHT!" Alastors voice raised as he was grabbed and thrown into the wall beside him cracking it. He looked at lucifer whose wings where out putting him at eye level as he held alastor off the ground.

" YOU HAVE NO FUCKING IDEA THE PAIN I AM IN. I TOLD YOU I AM NOT IN THE MOOD FOR THIS SHIT AND YOU JUST CANT KEEP YOUR DAM MOUTH SHUT!!" Lucifer yelled out at him. And for one of the few moments in his life...alastor was actually scared, never had he seen lucifer so pissed off..even when trying to rile him up, and then he spotted the tear marks on his face. Some old and some new. Alastor felt himself being slowly lowered down as he watched lucifer break down infront of him. He was gripping alastors coat but looking at the ground now as his body trembled slightly..without saying a word lucifer let him go and quickly made his way to his room at the end of the hall before slamming the door shut.
Alastor just stood there before slipping into the shadows and appearing in the lobby...and now seeing everyone sad.
"Did I miss something?" He asked as he walked over to husker at the bar..taking note of the wasted angle at the end of it.
Husk opened his mouth to try and talk but nothing came out before he just shook his head.
"Husk...what happened..." Alastor asked firmly now...with a hint of worry. Husk pointed at the wall where 2 new posters hung. Slowly making his way over he stopped infront of them and froze, there was the poster of sir pentious and next to him...one of Charlie..she stood there with her usual bright smile and surrounded by everyone. Alastors eyes opened wide and his smile weakened and faltered before he slid into the shadows and appeared in lucifers room. The room was a mess, holes in the wall, items scattered everywhere and in the corner sat the king himself rolled into a ball with his wings wrapped around him.

"Im...so sorry lucifer..I had no idea"

"Leave me alone" he muttered out...sensing that al didn't leave only irrated him more.
"I SAID GET OUT! CHARLIES DEAD AND SHES NOT COMING BACK" Lucifers horns flared up as his demon side was unleashed again
...JUST GET OUT...GET..out" his anger dispersed as it was replaced with guilt and sadness again before he put his head into his knees and started to cry. Sobs racked his body to the point he didn't feel alastors hand on his shoulders.
"I will leave if you wish...but I will stay if not"
"J...just lea..leave me be...I'm not worth it"
Alastor nodded...feeling it would be bad to push it more and sunk into the shadows appearing in his own room now with tears of his own. Charlie was like a daughter to him. He moved and collapsed onto bed as he stared the ceiling...things were gonna be different

HEAVEN
Charlie landed on the ground with a thud and looked up.
"Emily!" She looked over and then looked at sir pentious and then it dawned at her what had happened...she had passed away in the battle...but why was she in heaven then?
