(CROSSPOSTED TO AO3 - @Tangobuster32) This story is marked as MATURE because it features graphic violence, major character death, and strong language. This story is also based upon the Christian faith and its interpretation of Heaven and Hell, along with my own interpretation of Limbo. --------- Alternates are a rare phenomenon in which a demon in Hell will mock the appearance of a human on Earth. After an Angel (named Denis) halts a demon's plan to murder two small children, the demon (named Nanael) enacts revenge by becoming Denis' alternate and tormenting him and his friends for life. How will they stop him, and who will they form an alliance with to do so?
