"Lucifer what you up to?" Azasel asks.
"I'm reading books."
"What books are you reading? Don't leave your best brother friend hanging!"
"Its records of how everything came to be."
"You mean like the underworld and stuff? I think father said that it was forbidden to read those."
"Really? Well my curiosity got the best of me."
"But what if it causes you to fall?"
"It wont I promise."
"Really? I don't want to be alone brother." Lucifer then goes back to reading his book and found a page of fallen angels.
"Their wings turn black, say brother hasn't your wings turned like grayish?"
"Uh I think." He lets his wings appear behind him.
"I guess they have gotten a bit darker."
"Brother don't let them grow any darker or you falling is certain."
"I wont I promise."
"You sure."
"Yeah I'm sure."
"Okay, but you cant be lazing around all day its you and Raphael's turn to guard the gates."
"Ugh its midweek already?"
"Yup! And you cant bribe me with heavenly coins anymore either! I'm tired of guarding."
"Okay fine." Lucifer then slides a page marker into the book and slips on his robes.

"Hey Raphael." Lucifer exclaims.
"Tch." Raphael didn't like his cousin since he accidentally took some heavenly coins from his pocket thinking it was chocolate coins.
"Whats the matter archangel? Don't tell me you despise your cousin." Lucifer retorts.
"Tch. Lets just go and guard already."
"Okay... Jeez you don't have to be so grouchy." Lucifer says, but little did he know Raphael despised him so much to set him up for a fatal crime to angels, letting a demon through the pearly gates.
---
"Hey Raphael, there's a suspicious figure heading towards the gate, go check it out." Him and Raphael were sitting on top of the gates, and he had his nose stuck in a book.
"Tch." Raphael responds, but he had a sly smirk on his face. He pretends to lock the gate shut tight, but he actually opens it enough so the demon could get inside. After this felony is done, he flies back to the top of the gate.
"Did you get rid of it?"
"Yeah. I did." He told a boldfaced lie. Then they both heard screams.
"THERES A DEMON INSIDE! THERES A DEMON INSIDE! GET INSIDE YOUR HOU~" Then they hear sickening gurgling sounds.
"Raphael, what in gods name did you do?!" Lucifer shouts.
"What in heavens name do you mean cousin?!"
"Shut the hell up, I told you to get rid of it, and you let it inside!" With that remark Lucifers wings grew darker.
"How dare you? Maybe you let him in!"
"What in the world are you talking about! I was up here reading!"
"Oh right? Am I suppose to believe that?!" Raphael says.
"Shut the hell up you liar! That is a sin!" His wings grow a bit more dark with that second remark.
"Cursing is a sin, and you've done that twice, and to an appointed arch angel at that."
"Why you..." Lucifer grabs him by the neck and almost chokes the angel, before he felt a sharp pain in his back. Another angel had thrown a spear, and he was knocked off the gate and fell unconscious.

"I tried to stop him sir, but he just suddenly grabbed me! And I'm sure he let the demon in, for I asked him to get rid of it." Lucifer heard a voice and slowly opened his eyes. He was chained to the ground with The Lord himself standing in front of him. He looked back at his wings. They were pitch black.
"See, his wings are proof." Raphael says with a smirk.
"You set me up!"
"Why would I do such a thing?"
"Azasel, do you believe Raphael, or your brother?" The Lord asks.
"I don't know... But Lucifer was reading some pretty shady books earlier... Brother you promised I wouldn't be alone... You promised you wouldn't leave me..." He responds with tears in his eyes. Then Lucifer spots something out of the corner of his eyes.
"Did you catch the demon?" He says in fear.
"No, but our top angel generals are searching for him."
"Look behind you!" Lucifer screams. The Lord quickly was poisoned by the creature. Lucifer tried to block the demons path, but his restrains disabled him.
"BROTHER RUN!" He yells. Raphael then drags Azasel out of the room. The creature started to approach Lucifer. The boy backed up from it as far as he could, and the demon broke his restraints when he saw his black wings.
"Come with me." He says in a mysterious tone.
"I cant." Lucifer responds.
"Would you rather be executed or your records hold that you've become a fallen angel?"
"Yes." He responds.
"Fine... Your chances are gone." The creature then leaps out of the window, and his brother runs back into the room.
"How come it didn't hurt you?! It caused a fatal wound in The Lord! Brother don't tell me..."
"No I didn't..."
"I don't believe you, and I have no other choice than to let you fall. And as for breaking your promise... I curse you. If you ever begin to love, or someone loves you, they will be killed. This is the curse of being alone, for you promised never to leave me alone, and you broke that promise." As soon as his brother said these words, Lucifer fell into a deep sleep. The next time he woke up, he was in a guest room in the most gruesome place in Ente Isla, Hell.
