Emily's POV

I watched from afar as Liam and Bellezza walked away. Everything she had said was bringing back memories.

Bellezza in my arms...bleeding. Taking her final breath, slowly closing her eyes. A warmth that had brought such joy, finally going cold.

I had found her in the early morning hours after I had confronted Lucifer, surprising her by stabbing her in the heart. Taking her life. Destroying my own flesh and blood. Stopping the apocolipse. But watching my own daughter die instead. Then hours later supposedly locking her father away in Hell.

I slowly fall into a dreamless sleep.

****FOUR DAYS LATER****

I was being shaked, dragging me from my black sleep.

'Emily. Emily. Wake up,' a husky voice said close to my ear.

'Emily I cant get you free unless you're away,' another voice joined in. I fluttered my eyes, finally getting them open. I awoke to Bellezza and Harry kneeling infront of me, while Zayn stood at the door watching and everyone else was making their way to it. I was the only one left on the wall.

'Cant you get them off,' Harry turned to Bellezza, and by the way he gazed at her, I knew that he knew.

'They are special chains aren't they Belle,' Liam said walking towards us. Harry stood up and rounded on him.

'How did you know about my daughter before me!' Harry's face got red. Liam held up his hands in defense.

'She came to my dreams,' Liam said brushing past him and kneeling beside me. He looked at Bellezza. 'Do what you have to.' She nodded before turning back to me.'

'Emily,' Bellezza said, catching my attention. I was slowly falling back asleep, everything was fuzzy around the edges.

'You are so beautiful,' I whispered. A tear escaped my eyes. 'You have to run.'

'Not without you,' Eleanor broke away from Louis's hold on her. She ran to us, followed by Danielle.

'You don't understand,' I said softly, my voice going hoarse. 'I deserve to die after what I've done.'

'Ardente,' Bellezza said sternly. 'You did what you had to do. Don't ever say that you deserve to die! Ever!'

I looked up at my girls. 'I'm so proud of you,' I said. Now tears were pouring down my face and my body was heaving great sobs. 'You will do well in this fight.'

'NOT WITHOUT YOU,' Danielle screamed, flinging herself down and breaking into sobs.

'Emily, you need to forgive yourself,' Bellezza said. 'What happened is over. You need to forgive yourself. I have never held it against you, but I forgive you.'

'I MURDERED MY DAUGHTER,' I pulled on the chains. 'YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND! THERE IS NO FORGIVNESS FOR THAT!' I collapsed back against the wall. The darkness was surrounding the figures in the back.

'Don't fall asleep on me Emily,' Harry looked desperatly at Bellezza and Liam. Zayn motioned him to the door but he only got half way there.

'Emily...please forgive yourself,' Bellezza said. 'What you did saved more lives than you can even imagine.'

'Okay. I forgive myself.' The chains that were holding me to the wall broke, and came clattering to the ground. I stood up, wobbling alittle on my legs. Harry turned around on his heels and ran to me, catching me as we both fell to the ground in a tangled mess of limbs. I cried into his shoulder.

'Why didn't you tell me about Bellezza,' he whispered in my ear. I pulled back slightly to look at our future daughter.

'I didn't remember,' I said just as the hall door swung open, knocking Zayn against the wall. There stood a very pissed off Lucifer.

'Well isn't this a cute reunion,' he sneered at Harry and me, but his eyes widened when he saw Bellezza. She turned on him, standing tall and fierce, glaring him down. 'Bellezza.'

'Lucifer.' She balled her fists, squeezing her tiny hands until the knuckles turned white. 'Fancy seeing you here after you betrayed the one you loved more than yourself.' He lunged at her.

Niall jumped and intercepted the attack, slamming into Lucifer and rolling them to the ground. Lucifer grunted with the impact, but swung a fist, which caught Niall in the shoulder. Everyone moved to interfeer but Bellezza soon yelled at them to run. Harry pulled me to the door, but when I got there I looked back.

'Go ahead. I'll be right there,' I pulled from his grasp and shoved them out the door. He looked pleadingly at me but thankfully didn't argue. I turned back around to find Bellezza holding off a few Antis while Lucifer and Niall were still rolling around on the floor.

I rushed forward, taking out the Antis while I made my way to the rolling men. Niall had an advantage on Lucifer because he had him from behind. Bellezza joined along side me as I made my way forward. I lit fire everything I could on my way.

'We'll start a fire,' Bellezza warned.

'That's what we want.' I said as the entire room engulfed into flames.
