Devoid Chronicles : Book 1 Blood Secrets

First

I don't even remember falling asleep. I opened my eyes to see my friend standing over me.

"It's been awhile Azari," He said as he moved past me. Sitting up, I watched him flop down across from me.

"Yeah, I haven't had much time for sleep these past couple days," I said as I plucked a blade of grass by my feet.

"I figured as much, what troubles you?" He asked. Turning my eyes to the sky, I dropped the blade of grass and sighed.

"A lot. Everyone was almost killed because a demon wants me and Sebastian's head. I wasn't able to defeat him. Alex would have whipped the floor with him. Sebastian just confessed that he's the reason that the God brothers are after me. Xandra's into Zae and Shadow keeps disappearing randomly." As I finished my shoulders slumped forward. In this dream world, I could finally free the weight of the world from my shoulders.

"Azari can tell you a story." My imaginary friend asked.

"Sure," I said as I laid back on the ground and watched the clouds flow overhead. Lightening jumped from cloud to cloud. The idea of being that free only caused my sadness increase.

"At the beginning of time a being, that we have come to know as God was created. We don't know by who or how this happened we just know it happened. The man grew lonely and created the first being, Aphoisis, and for many years the two were content with each other, but God grew lonely again and decided he would craft beings that looked like him. He crafted the first angel twins. Michael and Lucifer, they were complete opposites and in away God's first projects, in Michael he took away his free will but in Lucifer he granted it. When he saw that Lucifer was far more troublesome then his Michael God decided to create more angels like Michael. Lucifer continued to be the troublemaker breaking rules at every turn. Michael came to hate his brother for having freedom of will. Once again God grew board with an existence of angels who could only follow his command and nothing else. So, he created the primal demons."

With the mention of the Primal demons, I sat up and looked at my imaginary friend. His eyes were also cast to the sky watching the clouds and lightening.

"Did you say Primal demons?" I asked.

"Yeah, the primal demons. Like your father."

"How do you know so much?" I asked. My imaginary friend smiled at me before he returned them to the sky.

"In time, you will come to know all that I know." He said. Raising his eyes back to the sky he kept on with his story.

"God loved the 12 primal, unlike Lucifer they didn't cause trouble they had free will but made the choice to listen and comply. Michael nor any of the other angels trusted it. God turned all his attention to create humans, he made a point to make sure the mirrored his first creations, within them he instilled free will but stripped them of any powers. Everything wasn't as perfect as God assumed though. Lucifer and some of the other primal had been meeting in private they discussed the thought of taking the throne for themselves. They no longer wanted to be confined to heaven. So, under Lucifer guidance the waged war for the throne. At first it was only Lucifer and 4 primal but the other 8 got roped into the war because of their origins. God who was completely blind-sided by the coup jumped into action. Crafted a prison from the particles of the universe forced all 12 primal into it. This place has been come to be known as The Void."

I dropped my eyes from the sky and placed them back on the imaginary man.

"So, what about Lucifer? God should have just locked Lucifer and the other four primal's into a prison."
