The Divine Realm was destroyed... The angels and demons were sent to live in a mortal world where they have to live different lives, unaware of what happened before in their lives.
There was a rapping on Kassandra's door, causing her to groan and turn to the other side of her bed. She covered her face with a pillow, but the knocking intesified which caused her to sit up and open the door.
"Mom, I was sleeping," said Kassandra, looking at Jophiel with furrowed brows and pouty lips.
"You need to wake up, Kass. We have to go somewhere," said Jophiel to her daughter, smiling.
It was the day. It was the day they were to meet the others, with only Kassandra not having the knowledge of their past in the Realm.
"Can't it wait at least half an hour more-"
"Kassandra, we're gonna go on Yahweh's son's birthday party. We can't be late," said Jophiel, which made Kassandra sigh and just nod.
Jophiel smiled before walking away, so Kassandra went to her bathroom to take a bath. Stripping off of her clothes, she furrowed her brows and turned to look at the mirror when she saw something strange.
Why was there a tattoo on her collarbone all of a sudden? Why is it in the form of a star?
"Maybe I got this when I was drunk," Kassandra said, although the curiosity was there, still. "Maybe Azrael made me do something stupid again."
And so she decided to just take a bath, to get ready for the day ahead of her.
In the new world, Kassandra happened to become best friends with Azrael. She was friends with Raphael, too, but it was Azrael who was her best friend. Azrael, however, happened to have Lucifer as his best friend. Michael and Gabriel were cousins, as well as Chamuel and Ariel. They were all friends of Azrael's, and Lilith became Azrael's girlfriend. Yahweh was Lucifer's father.
Somehow, fate still decided to put them all together but they just have to pretend that they didn't know, in front of Kassandra.
"But dad, isn't that a bit embarrassing? I'm a handsome guy, and you want me to wear a pink suit?" Asked Lucifer to Yahweh, but his father only smiled at him and nodded.
"What's wrong with that?" Asked his father.
"That's crazy. I'd rather wear this full-black suit with a black shirt inside. Az and the others will just laugh at me. Especially Az and Samyaza. Those idiots," said Lucifer, making Yahweh shrug.
"Fine. Wear whatever you'd like. Your visitors will come soon," said his father, making Lucifer sigh. His father then started walking away, but Lucifer couldn't help but ask.
"Will she... Will she be there?" Asked Lucifer, fixing his tie.
"You'll see," said his father, and then walked away without saying anything else.
Lucifer sighed, and then observed himself in front of the mirror. His dark hair matched with his all black clothes, as if he was a man of the dark. He tilted his head and then shook it.
"Mom, I'm gonna go find Az-"
"Kass. Just settle down for a second," said Jophiel, closing her eyes and pinching the bridge of her nose.
Kassandra was about to say something when someone already called her. She turned her head to see a lady with pitch black hair, wearing a little black dress.
"Lilith! Hey," said Kassandra, and then hugged the girl.
"Um, can I get Kass now? Our friends are over there and we'll introduce her to the birthday guy," said Lilith, her eyes telling something to Jophiel.
Of course, they set it up. They set it up on his birthday. If Azrael and Lilith can be together freely now, why can't Kass and Lucifer?
"Sure. Don't let her cause chaos," said Jophiel, causing Lilith to chuckle and nod.
The ladies started walking towards the table of guys, their laughter erupting almost in all of the venue. Michael, Gabriel, Chamuel, Ariel, Azrael and Raphael were there, along with Lucifer.
All the guys were in suits but what caught Kassandra's eye was the guy whom her heart was meant for.
The guys' laughter only stopped when the girls were already in front of them, causing Lilith to raise a brow at them.
"Sit here, Lil." Said Azrael, patting the seat beside him and Lilith did.
"Hey, Kass. Over here," said Raphael, patting the seat in between him and Lucifer.
All eyes of the people on the table was on her, each and everyone of them anticipating the moment Lucifer and Kassandra would finally meet. Meet in a way they should have, not in the midst of chaos.
After sitting down, Azrael cleared his throat causing Lilith to hit the back of his head.
"Um, hey. I'm Lucifer," said Lucifer, smiling nervously at Kassandra.
In all things, Lucifer wasn't shy. He was actually overconfident, but after seeing Kassandra, it seemed as if all of his confidence flew away. This is it. This is the start of everything.
He took in her appearance. Her pale blonde hair fell in waves, and her white dress made her look like an absolute angel.
He fell in love with her all over again.
"Hey. It's Kassandra," said Kassandra, smiling softly at Lucifer.
The archangels looked at each other meaningfully, knowing that destiny was doing its work, the same way they were doing theirs.
Maybe this time, it won't get as messy as what happened in the Realm.
