The Apprentice Of The Radio Demon

Chapter 98 Weapon of Mass Destruction (Live To Live)

Back at the Hazbin Hotel, the others were outside as they stared at the now defenseless Heaven. "Welp, we're fucked. There's no way they don't kill us all now." Cherri spoke up. Charlie states to hyperventilate from everything that's happening. "Charlie?" Vaggie was worried for her girlfriend. Razzle even flies down to check on her.

"What do we do? Get ready to fight?" Cherri questioned with her fist up. "No. We only fought them before because they came for us. This time, we hunker down, and we wait this out." Vaggie answered. Charlie grabs Razzle as she squeezes him too hard. "Uh, I-I cannot remember how to breathe." She pants in fear. Husk gave her a worried look. "Is she gonna be alright?"

"She'll be fine. Let's get this place secured. Go on." Vaggie ordered the others. She quickly turns to Charlie. "Come on, baby. Let's get inside." And she guided Charlie inside the hotel. While Husk and Cherri were worried.

Back in the Heaven court, Sera was being bombarded with concerns from Emily, Lute, Hala, Abel, Renn, Kordelia, Apollo, and Artemis. Everyone was talking at the same time, and Sera couldn't answer them.

"You need to give the order, Sera." Lute said. Emily quickly chimed in. "Sera, you have to let me talk to Charlie."

"It's time for our troops to go down there and wipe them all out for good." Lute explained. "Those sinners are nothing but trouble!" Hala added.

"Oh, my stars. This is so beyond my pay grade." Abel sweated in fear. "Please, everyone, calm down." Kordelia tried to calm the others down.

"Leave no soul standing in all of Hell." Lute added. "Are you kidding me! This all started because of your blood lust!" Renn yelled.

"How do you expect me to handle an actual apocalypse? I-I haven't been trained." Abel explained. "We have to deal with the angels first. We have to find a way to keep them safe." Artemis spoke up. "But we also have to stop this madman who started this war!" Apollo added.

"It's not right! Lute, you can't be serious. These are people, human souls." Emily exclaimed. "The threat Adam warned you about is greater than ever, and we have a duty to the people of Heaven. You need to make this decision now!" Lite yelled. "This is why I blame you and Adam for this! None of this would have happened if you had found another way!" Renn shouts.

"We need to appeal to their better selves." Emily added to her statement. "Please! This war will do nothing but cause pain! Everyone has suffered enough!" Kordelia cried out. "Who am I kidding? They're all perfect!" Abel explained in a panic.

"Enough!" Sera ordered as the other angles quickly flew away from her. Sera exhales. "I... I must pray on this." She flies off.

"You're infecting your sister with your weakness. The answer here is clear." Lute pointed at Emily. "How can you even say that? This is Heaven. We need to be the good guys." Emily argued. "You know what? I think you both make some good points." Abel tried to lighten the mood. "NO SHE DOESN'T!!!" The two female angels yelled at him.

As the others were arguing with each other, Sir Pentious followed Sera into another room. He finds her praying. "Are you...alright?" He asked. "Pentious, you aren't allowed back here. Who let you through?" Sera questioned. "Well, I'm quite stealthy and, well, everybody's busy screaming. You look distressed. Is there any way I can be of assssssistance?" Sir Pentious offered.

Sera gave a dry chuckle. "Be of assistance? To a Seraphim? Do you have any idea the weight of my position, what I need to do, the souls I hold in my hands?" Sera partially revealed her angelic form, with light shining around her. "Do you even grasp what I truly am?"

Sir Pentious blocked the light before he slithered forward. "Someone who could maybe use a friend to talk to?"

Sera calmed down. "Perhaps you're right." She flew down. "Pentious, it's my duty to enforce the judgement of Heaven, to nurture and protect those that deserve it, to preserve the separation between the righteous and the wicked. There was never supposed to be any doubt in who was deserving or not." She turned away. "And now you're here. Demons are at the gates, and everyone is looking to me to know what to do. But how can I? How can I know who to judge when so many that might have been saved have been slain because of me? How can you even explain humans having enough innate goodness to be redeemed while they take part in actions as vile as this?" She questioned as her voice cracked.
