Nicholas began laughing. "Oh, c'mon! He's so stupid! He doesn't even know how he began writing about you! Some fallen prophet he is!"

"Fallen prophet..." Lucifer whispered. "How can someone not know when they are a fallen prophet?" He looked at Maze for an answer.

Maze, laying on the couch covering his eyes from the light, hadn't said a thing for five minutes.

"Well, he could be exactly like Rin." Maze paused for a minute. "However, we would have noticed sooner, had you not have touched his soul." Lucifer looked down at his feet and wrapped his arms around his biceps. "So cold," he began. "So, so, so... Icy. A soul that icy shouldn't be a soul, Maze. It felt like his soul chain was.... Already broken but it didn't want to become the full fallen." Lucifer let go of his arms and started to walk away. "Anyways, have a great night you two! I have another dreadful day of work tomorrow!"


Lucifer went into his room and shut the door behind him. The lights turned on from the motion sensors but Lucifer turned them off.

"A Fallen Prophet he is..." He began thinking to himself. "His first two books are four months apart, but the next three are back to back, yet he doesn't remember writing them..." He laid down on his bed and closed his eyes.

"His hand was guided, by whom and for what purpose?" Lucifer opened his eyes abruptly and sat up. "How on Earth could I have missed it!" Lucifer ran out the room and back to the dining area. He grabbed his phone off the counter and returned to his room.


The night went by while Lucifer rested his eyes. He was suddenly woken up to a painful burning on his hands. He ran into his bathroom. "Nicholas!" Lucifer screamed. The servant appeared behind his master. "Ye-." He looked down at his master's hand. Lucifer's nails had been completely burned. "What the hell is this?" Nicholas smiled with relief. "Sir, you're growing up. It is normal for your nails to turn black. The look like they have been painted to the normal human eye, but us demons can see the black smoke rising from your nails."

Nicholas left his master's room and returned to his own room. Lucifer crawled back in bed. The pain evaporated and allowed him to rest his eyes a little longer.

A few hours had passed by when Lucifer was woken up by his phone alarm. He got ready for work and headed to the kitchen for breakfast. When he arrived in the kitchen, Nicholas was nowhere to be found, but there was a note taped to the fridge that read: "I went to go buy more groceries, your breakfast is in the fridge." Lucifer opened the fridge and found a plate that had a heart with horns and his name on it. He smirked at the plate and took it to go.
