Prophetized (book 2)

Chapter 5/ The Impossible

Cat got an idea after spending some time with Lucifer and the treehouse. But it was a tricky idea. Almost mission impossible. But after seeing that Lucifer has changed somewhat she decided that it would be worth a shot.
But she couldn't do it on an empty stomach.
"Lets go back to hell I'm hungry", said Cat as she suddenly stood up.
Lucifer nods looking at Cat suspiciously,"alright...."
Cat grinned and teleported them back to hell. Cat walked into the kitchen with Lucifer following behind her. She ordered the staff to make her Mac and cheese. The staff got to work on it. She waits for it eagerly as she had a plan to do but she needed all of the energy to do it.
Lucifer watched her quietly while wondering what she was cooking up in that head of hers. 
The mac and cheese came and she gobbled it down quickly and was overly giddy about Mac and cheese.
    Lucifer just kept on observing her. He didn't know why but during the time he'd already spent with cat he want to know more about her and the world she lived in.
      She finished her bowl of Mac and cheese and bolted up and out of the kitchen to go to her room to prepare for her big plan. She yelled over her shoulder,"I'm going to spend a little bit of time in my room! I promise I'll spend time with you later! And I always keep my promises!". And with that she disappeared from the kitchen.
     Lucifer watched her go. He was curious about what she had in mind but decided that he would retire to his library for now.
     Cat ran back to her room to grab a spell book that she got from the library.  She quickly scanned through the pages for a spell to suspend grace for a long period of time and about an hour later she found it. She practiced the incantation until she got it right. She was going to need a few ingredients first. She snuck out of her room careful to avoid Lucifer. She went into the kitchen and it was deserted. Perfect.
     She grabbed a medium sized mixing bowl. The spell called for  ginger, chamomile, Ashwagandha, Brahmi, lavender and the binding blood of the spell caster. It was recommended that not everyone should try the spell but she was Cat Rileys. She made lucifer change somewhat. If she could do that then she can do the spell too. She got the fresh ingredients and tools that she would need and went back to her room.
     She put in the as fresh as she could get in the kitchen ingredients in the bowl and mixed it up. She then took a knife and cut the meaty part of her hand under her thumb and allowed the droplets of blood to go in, saying the said spell with her powerful voice:
   "Angelus humilem faciet. Nice quod faciunt Angelum. In sanguine tuo, qui est terminus nexu vestro. Quod sanguine est et ego dico tibi quia faciam!"
     She said the last word lighting the match on fire and tossing it in. Burning the mixture into a liquid. Satisfied she took her mixture heading to Lucifer's library to finish up the spell. Hopefully Lucifer wouldn't be in there.
      She snuck around making her movements swift and light as a feather. She saw luci's library door open. Quietly she peeked her head in only to discover that he was no where to be found. Deciding to take this opportunity while she still had it she entered in the room and began to pour the mixture in the designated areas. The four corners of the room, doors and windows. But since there was going to be 3 powerful beings in this room she poured the rest of the mixture lining the walls and chanting the spell over and over again. Just for extra precautions.
    Even though she was tired since that spell required a lot of energy she went up to her room to finish up the last task. She didn't know exactly how to summon an angel or an arch angel as she just grew up with them so they were always there. And if she needed one of them all she needed to do was pray to one of them and they would show up. So her conclusion was that if it worked with Gabriel, Balthasar and Cas then there was no reason why it wouldn't work with the being that she was trying to summon.
    She got into a prayer position and prayed to this said being.
    This said being appeared behind Cat with the usual thundering sound of wings that came with the arrival and departure of an angel.
    Cat slowly stood up and turned to face this angel.
      "I assume you're Michael?", said Cat with her eyes wide.
        "Yes I am and who are you?", asked Michael.
         "I'm Cat Rileys and I have called on you to make things right with your brother", she said.
        Michael looked confused,"which brother are you speaking of?"
        She took a deep breath,"Lucifer. Now just hear me out please".
       Michael raised an eyebrow, "and what makes you think that I want to make things right with him?".
       "Just hear me out. Family is very important. He is still your brother nevertheless. No one deserves absolute hatred towards each other. I think that he has changed somewhat since I've been here. I don't know something is just different about him. And plus..." she trailed up holding Lucifer's flight feathers.
     Michael froze staring at the feathers,"Lucifer trusts you with his feathers? He's never trusted anyone with his feathers besides me before his fall. But you have the most desired feathers even he wouldn't trust me with them".
     "Well originally I was kidnapped by Lucifer because Gabriel left me home alone. So in exchange for letting me go and the safety of my friends I agreed to stay with him. To make sure that he kept his word he gave me his flight feathers. But the thing is though he did it willingly. I didn't ask him too. So basically he's on a leash and he's at my will. So you don't have to worry about him trying to smite you", she explained.
     "Oh and he also lets me pet his wings so yeah", she added.
      Michael stared at her for a moment, "what kind of sorcery is this? Have you cast a spell on Lucifer? Are you even aware of what those flight feathers can do?"
     Cat shook her head no,"nope this is all his free will. I don't believe in using threats or force to get what you want and I don't believe in using your powers for that either and yes I do know what those flight feathers can do. If you burn them they can cause that angel extreme pain and death if you burn them long enough. Except if the angel burns them themselves. It's the only way to kill an angel without the angel blade. Those flight feathers are an an angel's  way of giving their sacred word and it shows absolute trust and that they're not going back on their word anytime soon".
     Michael's eyes narrowed,"free will is an illusion".
     She sighed,"I don't agree with what you're saying but you believe what you want to believe. However I can tell you that I had absolutely nothing to do with Lucifer's choices or anything else that he's done around me".
     Michael nods slowly,"Prove Lucifer is acting of his own control"
    She sat down the flight feathers,"alright follow me please".
     They headed towards Lucifer's library and she gave a silent prayer that everything will turn out all right.
      Michael silently follows her and they reached the library. She turned to face him.
      "You might want to stay here until I tell you to come in. I think that it would be bad if I brought you in immediately", she whispered.
      "If that's what you wish for", said Michael.
       Cat nods and she went inside to see Lucifer.
       "Hey there's someone here to see you but you absolutely hate them. But promise that you won't smite them?", said Cat awkwardly.
      Lucifer nods,"okay"
      "You can come in now!", said Cat.
       Michael quietly entered. Lucifer just stared at him while Michael in return gave him a cold glare.
      Cat could feel the tension in the room. She hoped that her spell would work. She cleared her throat and began to speak.
       "I have brought you two here today to talk out your differences".
        Lucifer nods quietly at Cat. At least willing to try if it would please her. Michael on the other hand just scoffed.
       "There's nothing to talk about! You're wasting my time!", huffed Michael.
      Cat narrowed her eyes and they became maelstrom eyes when she gets angry.
      "You gave your word that you would be willing to listen. And everyone knows that an angel's word is sacred especially an arch angel's. And look he hasn't done anything to hurt you yet. He's standing attention willing to listen and talk. The fact that he's willing to try something automatically makes him better than you", defended Cat
      "Well if you're the righteous one then you would keep it", added Cat.
       Michael glared at her and before he could do or say anything royally stupid Lucifer caught his attention distracting him.
    Cat smiled in triumph knowing that she got to Michael. She turned to Lucifer.
      "Now is there anything that you want to say first?"
       Lucifer watches Cat and Michael and Michael huffs.
       Cat encourages them both,"come on say something to each other. One sentence is not going to kill you"
     Michael bites his cheek and Lucifer looks at Cat. He looks at Michael.
    "We can call this off..."
   Cat shook her head and made a few hand movements to lock the door and windows.
    "Nope we are staying in here until you two talk", said Cat.
   Lucifer looked at her worriedly,"you've locked yourself in a blood bath"
     Cat has a sly smile like a...well...cat,"Not necessarily....You see I planed this out. Before I summoned Michael I cast a spell on this room to temporarily take away your graces. So basically you guys are mortals with wings. But it doesn't effect the spell caster so I can use my powers if need be. If I have to I can use my powers to tie you both to your chairs, let you say one thing, zip your mouth, and do the same thing to the other. But I'd rather not because this spell took up so much of my energy and I really don't have anymore".
     Michael remains quiet, glaring at Cat. Cat just smiled in triumph.
     "Please take your time I have the patience of a saint. I would recommend that if you want to get out of here or just simply want this to end quickly you two should talk".
      Michael huffed,"There's nothing to talk about!"
        Cat sighed and mumbled,"we're gonna be here for awhile..."
        Lucifer quietly waits until Michael accepts his fate. Cat waits for Michael as well, looking at him. Michael continues to be a stubborn child.
     Cat waits along with him since two can play this game. And the only reason why she has the patience of a saint is because of her stubbornness from Gabriel. She's just as stubborn. She saw this as a power war between herself and Michael.
    Michael eventually caves in. Though he grumbled about it.
   Cat beams,"finally we can get started. Now do I have to treat you like fledglings or can you two act like grown up angels?"
     Lucifer and Michael exchange a few civil words. Cat smiled and walked out of the room thinking that they can't cause too much damage to each other.
     Michael stares after Cat as she left,"that human child is....something..."
       Lucifer shifts and fidgets and nods,"she is...she's being raised by Gabriel....I-I think that I'm....beginning to...care for her..."
    Michael blinks,"how so? And why?"
     "I don't know....it's just...between my curiosity and something about her aura...I'm beginning to care for her", he answered truthfully.
    Michael gave a small smile,"you were always the curious one. She was right you have changed in a way...perhaps we can start out talking more and see where it goes from here".
     Lucifer nods,"do you really think...she's able to achieve the impossible?"
     "I think that she already has but I don't know I guess only time will tell. But I do know that dad set her up for greatness. I'll see you around little brother. I'm needed elsewhere", he teleports out of the room. And as he teleported out Cat walked right back in.
     "So how did it go? I see you haven't killed each other so that's a start", said Cat.
     "We just talked a bit nothing spectacular happened", he rolled his eyes.
       Cat goes up to him and hugs him,"that's good. It's a start"
       Lucifer smiled down at her. It was then he knew it. It was solidified. To the very being of his core. The moment he laid eyes on her, he knew that his hunch was right all along.
      She was the prophetised child. She is able to do the impossible. Is the impossible personified. The very balance of the universe.
