✔His Diabolic Angel

Killing Caleb

"Come on!" Caleb yelled. "Make the first move."

I got a better grip on my weapons, as my heart started to pound ferociously in my chest. Without even thinking, I charged towards Caleb.

I pulled the right side of my body back as I raised my left arm, ignoring the searing pain from the brand. Using all my might, I slashed at Caleb's torso, which started to bleed profusely. I raised my hand again to strike him.

Laughing, Caleb caught my hand. He looked down at his torso and I followed his gaze.

"What the-?" I stood there, not pulling away from his grip as I watched the wound heal.

Caleb looked back at me, grinning. With one swift motion, he grabbed my neck and lifted me high above the ground. "You're going to die down here," he declared as he grabbed my daggers from my hands. Then he threw me across the room with such force that I hit the wall and crumbled to the ground.

My body screamed in pain, as I tried to sit up. I could feel the warm liquid from my head, running down my face. I cried out as I attempted to lift my head. I slowly sat up, head pounding.

"Raven, watch out!" Mazel screamed. I looked up just as Caleb threw one of my weapons at me. I tried to move out of the way, but I was too slow. The first dagger hit me on the right shoulder. I screamed out in pain as it connected. I reached up to pull it out of my shoulder as the second dagger hit me under my left rib. Blood started to pour from both of the wounds.

"Come on, Raven. Fight back!" Caleb yelled as he approached me. "No wonder Lucifer isn't looking for you. You're weak as Hell. You're fucking pathetic!"

Gritting my teeth, I pulled both of the daggers out and I stood up. "I," I started as I took one step towards him. "am not pathetic! You are nothing but a fucking cheat. How am I supposed to kill you if you keep healing yourself?" I yelled as I held my daggers in front of me.

Taking a deep breath, I charged towards him. He reached to grab me and quickly, I dropped to my knees. Right before I slid past him, I slashed him in the stomach. Caleb growled as he started to turn around to face me. Without thinking, I stood up and started slashing at his back. Caleb roared as his wing ripped through my stomach.

I fell to the ground in complete agony. I laid on my back as blood started to pool around me.

"It's a shame, really. If only you were taught how to call out your angel when in a fight. Something like that takes a really long time to master." Caleb stood over me and pressed his foot to my chest.

I screamed as I tried to fight him off. I could barely breathe. "I was going to keep you as my pet but I have decided Mazel would be a better pet than your weak ass. So I am left to ask this: any last words?"

"Yeah," I managed to squeak out. "Mazel, now!"

"Wha-" Caleb spun around just in time to see Mazel leap into the air with two long swords.

He threw his hands up to protect his face and Mazel's swords connected with them. His arms fell to the ground. Black blood poured out of the wounds.

"Raven, I need you to think to yourself, chains," Mazel yelled.

Chains? I thought to myself. What-? In that instant, my hands shot in front of me and chains wrapped around Caleb's waist.

"Hold him there!" Mazel yelled. She ran towards me and stood over top of me.

Caleb roared as he tried to break free my chains. I struggled to stay awake as blood kept pouring from my wounds.

Caleb fought to break free from my chains but I held on to him with all my might. Mazel pulled one of his wings out from his back. She lifted her swords high above her head, and in one swift motion, she sliced through his wing.

He roared as he tried to twist out of my grasp. My vision started to fade as I tried to desperately hold Caleb. Caleb twisted around enough to look me in the eyes as he flung one of his bloody stump of an arm in my direction. I screamed when his blood touched my face. It was burning. I released one of my chains from around him as I touched my face to wipe off the blood. Caleb's hands were starting to grow back. I stared at Caleb, horrified as I watched his hands regenerate.

Mazel screamed at me to hold him still as she tried to cut off his other wing. Quickly, I threw my empty hand out towards Caleb and held him still. As quick as lighting, Mazel cut off his other wing. I released him from my chains.

Caleb roared in excruciating pain as he fell to the ground, just a couple of feet away from me. He was breathing really hard as he gurgled up blood. "You know," Caleb panted in between breaths, "now I see why Lucifer chose you." With those as his last words, Caleb closed his eyes.

Mazel dropped her swords and walked over to the other side of the room where she was chained to the wall. "We're going to chain him up because he's not dead. We don't have the dagger that'll kill him, but we have demon chains that'll weaken him." I nodded, too weak to say anything. I rolled on my stomach, grunting in pain as I slowly stood up.

"Raven, watch out!" Mazel yelled. I turned around just in time to see Caleb raise one of the swords high over his head.

Too weak to do anything, I closed my eyes as I waited for Caleb to strike me down. I heard him grunt and I opened my eyes. Protruding from the left side of his chest, was the Ambreison dagger. Caleb stared at me with wide eyes before he fell to the ground, dead. The room around me was spinning so fast.

I turned around, slowly and saw Lucifer, with his hair all wild and dark circles under his eyes. "Raven," Lucifer breathed, as he stared at me.

A small smile tugged at the corners of my lips. "Lucifer," I whispered as the world spun out of control and I passed out.

Here we have it where Raven actually is fighting Caleb. It took me forever to write this scene because as much as I hate to say it, I am actually really bad with writing scenes....

On to questions now, 

-How many people actually thought Raven was going to defeat Caleb on here own?

-Was anyone surprised to see Lucifer show up at the last possible minute? 

-Do you think her fight with Caleb is completely over?
