It was finally time… I was face to face with Lucifer “You need to go down!” I yelled at him “can’t you see you are just destroying your own people!”

“I do not care for these people” Luicfer said “they are nothing but pawns, something that you should have been content being one as well”

“why should I! I am a free thinker… and you always hated it!” I shouted at him “you were never proud of me! Because I was a free thinker… just… like… HER!” Lucifer slapped his hand right across my face, his hand made a loud crack against my cheek “you’re wrong” I said, my eyes blazing with anger “I am not like her… I will not allow myself to become your bitch” I lunged at him, my claws extended, he grabbed my wrist and threw me around, I landed on all fours, cheetah ready to pounce on their pray. I lunged back at him, he ducked but I kicked my legs backwards, making sure to dig them into his back. He fell forward, I feel on my stomach, I got up quickly and spun around, that was when I saw it, the man standing there holding a staff. I looked down and gasped “oh no!” I growled “give it to me, GIVE IT BACK NOW!” 

“now we aren’t stupid now are we” a familiar voice said

“no…. MAXWELL! NO!” I couldn’t believe it, Maxwell was here

“your staff is your power” Lucifer spoke “destroy it and we destroy you…. We can’t destroy your physically with your immortal body… but if it was… let’s say… Human” I watched helplessly as Maxwell removed the orb from my staff “your spirit isn’t attached to your body anymore… you gave that up…. The staff can only be destroyed by a drop of a halflings blood… and those do not exist…. But it can be separated…. Remove the parts and your spirit shall be split in two….. one trapped and one reborn….kill the reborn and you are gone from this universe” his smile grew more evil “goodbye…. Rosella” he removed the jewel from the staff and I fell myself falling….

I awoke with a jump, the dark memory still flowing through my mind, I looked around glad to see my friends asleep, all safe and sound “it was just a dream…. It won’t happen again…. But you better stick to the plan” I looked up to a hooded figure perched on the cliff above

“you really are back to normal aren’t you” the hooded figure spoke “good… our plan is working”

“our plan” I said skeptically

“your plan” he corrected “though why you needed the human life I do not understand”

“I needed It because I needed new allies, allies that He wouldn’t expect” I told him, I heard movement and saw Damon shifting as if he was going to wake up “it is time to go now…. Maxwell” he scurried off into the darkness just as Damon sat up “hey” he said softly “morning”

“morning” I said, smiling at him

“so today is the day huh” he said

“Yeah..” I said softly “come on Damon let’s get everyone up and ready”

“yeah ok” he said, doing as he was told. I could tell he was really worried… he didn’t make one smart ass comment, followed all direct orders, and above all…. He and Marcus didn’t fight and that was a really bad sign. With all this going on, all I could do was sigh
