Reaper: Book 1

Lucifer Pt 2

Pierre arrives a bit after I do. We talk for a while. Pierre keeps looking over at the door like she's expecting someone to burst in. There's a knock at the door. "I got it," I say as I get up to answer it. Lucifer was at the door and he does not look happy. "This just keeps getting better.  What do you want now?" I smugly asked. "Another demon has been killed by you reapers." He says. "Umm, correction two demons were killed by me. " I tell him. "According to witnesses, you didn't kill Henry. She did" he points to Pierre who seems confused. "What? I tore him to pieces and left nothing. She was outside waiting I watched as the light faded from his eyes as he stopped breathing. . I regret nothing of doing that. So what is the problem?" I inform him.

"According to other demons you didn't kill Henry, I let it slide when you killed your father because that guy was an asshole". " I did kill Henry and I can prove it." He gives me look of annoyance. "Then prove it." Ok. One moment." I go get Prue and explains the situation. We come out to the lobby. "Greeting Lucifer," Prue says. "Hello." "I understand we have an issue. Shall I look into it for you so you can see exactly what happened to Henry?" She asks. Lucifer nods. "Very well." She says. Prue chants something. The crystal ball starts to fill with smoke as she surfs through Henry's timeline to when he died. I can be clearly seen brutally killing Henry. The vision goes away as she snaps out of it.  "Seems she was telling the truth Lucifer." She says.

"This one seems to be too far gone anyway. Why not just finish it off then break the other?" He says. "What the hell are you on about" "Is it that difficult to understand? Then how about I show you what I mean" he moves over to Pierre swiftly and grabs her by the throat, she gasps for breath. Prue eyes go red. She freezes Lucifer so I can get Pierre away."Im afraid I can't let you do that," Prue says. Pierre coughs a few times and rubs her neck."Why are you defending them?!" Lucifer shouts. "They haven't done anything wrong Lucifer. They were defending themselves. I will not punish them for doing so." Prue answers. Lucifer snarls at me and Pierre. I glare at him. "Not so tough now are you?" I say. "Careful of your words dearie. I may be strong but this only holds for so long." Prue says. "Caio hide her! Somewhere he can't find her. I'll call you when it's safe."  I tell him. Caio nods and takes her to a hiding spot. I  death glare Lucifer."Why must you always ruin my fun?" He says. "Because I can," I answer. "Lucky for you I'm rather tired. Next time I won't jet you go so easily" he says leaving. Pierre and Caio fall through the ceiling. "What the fuck! Why were you in the ceiling? I expect that from Batzy. " I say helping them up. "Secret hatch Lucifer doesn't know about. "Caio answers. Pierre rubs the back of her head. "Ow," she says. "Are you ok?" "Im fine," she says.  There is another knock at the door I go to open it. "Go eat a...uhhnnn." I stop. "Whatever happened to professional courtesy?" Drax says. "Sorry. We had trouble with Lucifer. I thought he decided to come back." I tell him. "What did he want?" "He was mad about the demon-killing and tried to hurt us. Prue stopped him while Caio hid her. Till he left." "Is everyone ok?" I nod. "Then that's all that matters." He says.

I decide to go see Adrian. We talked for a bit. I suddenly teleported away in the middle of talking. I look around and all I see is blackness with the exception of glowing purple eyes. "Prue?" "Hello, darling. Terribly sorry for this. I currently have no choice. I've met my quota. "She says. Lucifer comes out of the darkness. "I told you I wouldn't go easy this time." He snarls. "Oh, my fucking hell! We really doing this again?!" I say shaking my head. "Hmm. Thought so" Adrian says as he appears behind me. "Adrian!" Prue looks at him. Her eyes turn blue. "Hello, Adrian." She says. "Hi." He says back." I do apologize. I currently have no choice in this. I really don't want to hurt her." She says. "Quiet you," Lucifer says. He looks at Adrian and narrows his eyes. "All I have to do is utter one simple sentence and she's done for. Im sure your aware of what Prue is?" He says with a crooked smile. Prue closes her eyes and clutches her staff so hard it almost breaks. Lucifer don't make me do this. Prue says. "I'm aware, but you're forgetting who I am and what I'm capable of". Adrian says. "Oh, I haven't forgotten. Im making the game more interesting." He says looking at Prue. "I wish for you to kill her no matter the cost." He says. Prue snaps her head towards Lucifer. "Your wish shall be granted". She says waving her hand sending Adrian across the room. She grabs me by the throat holding me in the air.

"I...don't..want..to do this." she says. Im....sorry". "Prue....ugh....s-stop..." "I can't... " she says as she tossed me to the ground so hard it cracks. Adrian lands on his feet and pulls out his scythe. He knocks Prue to the ground causing her to let go. She tried to force herself to stay but can't. She jumps up and kicks him. She snaps her fingers and I am in front of her held in a choke hold. Prue looks to Lucifer. She silently begs Lucifer to call her off. Meanwhile, Lucifer laughs. "Move wisely. One more snap and she done for. He says." Im really sorry dearie. "She tells me as she snaps my neck and throws me across the room."You also forget that reapers can't die that easily," Adrian tells Lucifer.  "Yes, but I found someone with a certain thing that can." He says. Prue reluctantly poofs in the reaper blade. "Enough this talking." He says looking at Prue who shakes her head. "Do it!" He demands. "As you wish." She says going over. She holds my head back and the blade to my throat and slices it. "Well then maybe I should call for another," he says with a smile. "Hey Luci," a voice says. When Lucifer turns around brandy is behind him and she seems annoyed. "Hello Brandy." He says. "Prue I wish you would stop," she says with a sigh. Prue snaps her head towards her and smiles relieved. "As you wish. "She says. She picks me up and holds me. "Now, why would you do that? I could just wish her to continue." He says. "I don't want to hurt her Lucifer!" Prue says. "Prue. I wish Lucifer was no longer able to wish" she says as she folds her arms. She smiles at them.  "As you wish shall be done." She says snapping her fingers.  "Thank you brandy dear." "You fucking owe me!" Brandy says. Prue nods. "Oh and Lucifer I must inform you I switched blades." She says holding the real one. "Now I suggest you back off as if she wishes I will take great pleasure in killing you. "She says."Just go ahead and kill him. He keeps bothering me " She says. She evil eyes Lucifer. "You wouldn't dare! "He says Prue laughs. "Oh....but I would. You ha e made me hurt too many innocent people." She says as she goes for his blade in hand. "She'll be fine, right?" Brandy asks looking at me as I lay in a look of my own blood.

Adrian nods. "It takes a lot more than that to kill a reaper," he says. Prue stabs Lucifer with the blade. White light explodes from his body. It's so bright they had to shield their eyes. she rips the blade out and he falls to the floor."All hail queen Charlie. "She says. She walks back over to Adrian. "Really sorry about all this." She says to them. "It's over now, that's all that matters. Mary Ann is going to kill me though". Adrian tells her."Is she ok? I know it takes a lot but she's lost a lot of blood. Has a concussion possibly broken bones?" She says sadly her eyes turn blue. "She may have some memory issues for a small bit do to it. "She adds. "That's the worst-case scenario. Reapers can heal quickly so if that is what happens it won't last long" Adrian says. I cough as I gasp for air. Prue teleports away."jammed airway?" brandy asks. "doubtful," Adrian says. I sit up"Ow! Shit!" I cry out holding my head. I look at Adrian. A window is smashed open.
