Demon of my Demons

Twenty One: The Truth Pt 1

-Cordelia-

I'm all alone again, but I learned a few things about this "Great Threat." He's only doing all of this for revenge on Lucifer, because he pushed him down from Heaven just to see if it will hurt. That's really dumb if you tell me, because if he wanted to know something he should've pushed himself off. Alistair sounded like a great angel once, until Lucifer corrupted him and the worst part is he was still an angel then! If Lucifer can corrupt people when he was an angel, then I can't imagine what he can do now as the King of Hell. I don't blame Alistair for wanting his revenge on Lucifer, but I just wish he wouldn't drag me into it. I don't want to be killed by an ex angel, and to be honest I'm a bit terrified of his revenge that he has planned. I kinda wish Sirius, Cristobal, Chax, and even Jessamyn are here. It would be nice to be around people who are somewhat nice and annoying. I'm not quite sure how long I've been here, but soon the door squeaks open and Alistair comes rushing in. I quickly stood up with widen eyes as he grabs onto my arm tightly, and he roughly pulls me out of the room. I had to shield my eyes a bit as the bright light blinded me for a moment, but once my eyes adjusted my eyes widen.

It looks like I'm underground, and right now we're heading towards stairs that's made from stone. There's some torches to give light, but otherwise that, there's not much down here besides other wooden doors. This must be a dungeon of some sort. I thought. When we make it upstairs, he stops me as he snaps his fingers and metal chains appear on my wrists and a cloth appears over my eyes. I let out a gasp at the coldness of the metal that's pressing against my wrists, and I felt annoyed that he's doing this. This is really stupid and really pointless if you ask me.

"What is this for?" I ask blindly.

"It's time for my revenge to start." Alistair tells me.

"Please rethink this plan through! What Lucifer did was terrible, and you didn't deserve it but do you really want to follow his footsteps? Using me will be like how Lucifer used you. Don't be like him Alistair!" I try to convince him.

"I'm sorry. I really am, but if I don't do this now then I'll never be able too." Alistair tells me upsettingly.

"What are you even talking about?" I ask with a huff.

"Being only half fallen, has consequences. I'm not immortal anymore, and this year is my last year to get my revenge before I die. Forever." Alistair tells me angrily but sadly.

"I'm sorry this happened to you Alistair, but don't take this out on me! You want Lucifer, you can have him but don't bring me and my friends into your revenge!" I plead him.

"See, there's the problem." Alistair says simply.

"What?" I ask dumbfounded.

"I can't just get my revenge on Lucifer without involving you and your friends, because one of your friends is Lucifer's son. He will intervene with my revenge on his father." Alistair tells me matter of fact.

"But do you really want to kill your own nephew that you haven't even met?" I ask desperately.

"Of course not! But do you really think he will want to meet someone who wants to kill his father?" Alistair asks me seriously.

Well he got a point there, but then again there all demons, and Sirius might not even know the truth about Alistair. I can guess that he more likely doesn't, since nobody even gotten this close to him without dying. I'm the first I guess. I thought. Should I be grateful or nah? I probably shouldn't since he's going to kill me later on. I seem to know how to get myself into these kinds of situations.

"Alistair-" I start to say but he interrupts me, "No listen, I'm sorry I'm using you but this is my last chance. Once I die, I'll turn to dust and I won't go anywhere. Not Hell, not Heaven. Hell I won't even get to go to Purgatory, because I'm not like you. I was a full angel that half fell, so now I'll turn to dust. I won't be able to get revived, and to be honest nobody would try anyways." Alistair tells me upset.
