Agathokological - (adj) composed of both good and evil
"My Lord, We have a slight. . . Problem" The words slithered out of the assistants mouth, bowing halfway down waiting for a response from her Lord. Lucifer. Tapping his finger on the arm rest of his chair, he let out a sigh, looking down at his assistant.
"What is it?" Speaking in not only a pissed off tone of voice, Lucifer couldn't help but seem to growl under his breath fiercely.
"We we're expecting to have this newcomer come to hell but. . . It seems that she's not. . . Normal." Standing up, The assistant put her clipboard up to her chest, holding the pen in her hand. "We acquire your assistance right away so, please follow me, my Lord."
Lucifer pressed his hand against the arm of the chair, standing up. His long and glorious black wings flew out into the large room, filling up half of the length, stretching from being tucked up for so long. After a couple of seconds, His wings came back down to his sides. They lightly moved, adapting to the large area of space. Licking his lips, a smirk came across Lucifer's face. He had that look in his eyes. The evil, corrupted look that swayed people into his tricks. They were Gorgeous.
As Lucifer walked down the stairs of the throne room, heading towards the entrance of the large palace he had lived in, he went into thought on who this girl could be that wasn't "normal.""Sir, Which car would you like to use today? I'll go and fetch it." Not bothering to smile, the assistant looked at Lucifer. Looking at his garage, Lucifer looked down at his assistant.
"I'll take my favorite." The assistant nodded, turning and heading down towards the garage to pick up the car Lucifer had requested. Lucifer watched her walk a distance away before turning to the side, slipping the small container of cigarettes and a lighter out of his pocket. Opening the metal container, He took a cigarette out of the box, closing it and putting it back into his pocket. Putting the orange tip on his lips, Lucifer popped open the lighter top and lit the cigarette. Putting the lighter away, Lucifer put his index finger and middle finger in-between the cigarette. Pulling it away from his lips and a few inches away from his face. Opening his mouth just enough, a light cloud of smoke drew out of his mouth and into the air around him."Sir, Your car is out front. I'll take you to it." Lucifer nodded, dropping the cigarette on the ground and smearing it with his shoe against the cold pavement. Turning toward his assistant he started to walk next to her, looking out towards the large city that awaited them. Lucifer's assistant opened the door to the shiny black Lamborghini. Leaning down, Lucifer sat down in the backseat, pulling his phone out of his pocket and scrolling through his notifications about who had joined hell and the current mayhem that was happening on Earth. As he was doing so, his assistant sat down next to him, looking over her clipboard she still had with her. Setting it down on her lap she scanned over the information, Lucifer not seeming to give a damn on what she was doing.
"Zoeiy Ashbaken. Spelled with an I. Her crimes and sins are scratched out. . . What?" Confused, Lucifer's assistant tapper her finger on the clipboard, a sigh escaping her lips. "She's a special case. . . for sure" Shaking her head she flipped through the different pages under the main profile one. A look of confusion came across her face one again. Lucifer rudely interrupted her scimming of the pages giving her a short glare.
"Your going to give yourself a headache. Stop worrying so much, We'll see for ourselves who this girl is." Biting her lip, She knew she was basically being told to shut up and stop annoying her Lord. She nodded, looking out the window as the car started up. Driving away from Lucifer's place, The driver drove them down to the city. Once they arrived in the city, the driver drove them down past all the flashy lights and buildings that consisted of Casino's, Work buildings, apartments, and much more. Soon enough, an hour or so had passed. The driver came to a stop in front of the large and gloomy gates where new people to hell would come. Stepping out of the car, Lucifer's assistant opened the door for Lucifer so he could get out. Stepping out of the car as well, Lucifer looked down to see his 'favorite' person, the king of heaven, God standing next to the strange girl. Zoeiy Ashbaken.
Lucifer's assistant shut the door behind the two, quickly walking over to the gates and whispering to God. Both Zoeiy and God looked up towards Lucifer. A pure smirk on his face as he walked over to the three.
"Look who decided to show up for once in his life." God couldn't help but laugh as he looked at Lucifer. Zoeiy watched silently, seemingly judging the two. Lucifer caught her glances. Approaching her slowly, he looked down, raising his eyebrow at her. Zoeiy looked up at Lucifer, a small growl like sound came from the back of her throat. Looking over to God, Lucifer's assistant interrupted him before he could even start to talk.
"Sir, I was going to tell you earlier but, We need to judge Zoeiy to see if she'll be going to heaven or hell. So far she seems to have balance with both good and evil and, the only way for us to decide where she'll be places is. . . of course, as I said, judging her." The assistant finished talking. Lucifer nodded, God watching his movements. As Lucifer walked over to Zoeiy, he looked over her. Thats when the sound of a blade stabbed someone. Silence approached, Lucifer not moving but a dark crimson color started to stain the suit he was wearing. God froze in place, Lucifer's assistant dropped her clipboard as she ran over to Lucifer's assistance. Lucifer muttered something under his breath, weakly. Falling to the ground, blood started to run in the dead grass, staining Lucifer's body. Lucifer was dead. Almost wanting to scream, The assistant looked up, not seeing Zoeiy. She almost freaked out, About to scream at God to move but God had just fallen to the floor, dead like Lucifer. The assistant stood up, horror in her eyes as she looked at Zoeiy, the twisted smile on her face. Zoeiy couldn't help but slightly laugh as she stepped over the dead body of Lucifer, approaching the assistant. As she walked a black cloak formed over her body. Her face hidden. Her dagger changed into a large scythe as she slashed at the assistant. The assistant's body became numb and fell to the ground. Dead.
[Prompt - Lucifer and God are called down to see a person who doesn't pass as good or bad so, Both god and Lucifer must judge the person to see who they would fit but little do they know that the person is actually death and they have come to take Lucifer and God's lives. ]
