Author's Note: Hey guys. So sorry it took me this long to get this out, I know that you guys were expecting it sooner, I've just been so preoccupied with a lot of things going on. Nevertheless, here is part 5 of my 6 part "Lucifer" series.
Los Angeles: 11-15-17, 6:45 p.m.
"So, I should be home in a few minutes. Love you. Bye." The man hung up and walked over to his car and drove off. He was passing through a secluded street overpass, when his car suddenly shut off.
"Oh, for crying out-" He climbed out and lifted up the hood of the car, only to feel himself being pulled into the air. He looked around and saw nothing.
"Meat. Meat for me. Nice little snack." the man looked at the ceiling, and saw something horrifying.
"What the hell are you?"
"... HUNGRY."
(15 minutes later)
"Hey, Ella. What do we got?" Chloe walked up to the medical examiner who was standing just outside the crime scene. Lucifer followed after Chloe, and the three went up to the victim.
"Well, I think it was human at one point, but given the state it's in-" Ella lifted up the sheet to show a pile of bones and ripped flesh. "- we had to use the car registration to I.D. our victim. Meet one Matthew Donlan, age 23."
"Good grief. Looks like he was chewed up and spat out. Poor sap." Lucifer sighed at the pile of what was left of Matthew.
"Something probably did, mate." came a voice from behind them. The trio turned around to see another trio. A young woman with thick curly brown hair, a middle aged man with a scruffy beard and a cap, and a blonde man in a trench coat with a red tie hanging loosely around his unbuttoned shirt.
"I'm sorry, who are you people?" Chloe asked, arms crossed standing in front of the newcomers.
"John Constantine, paranormal investigator. This here is Chaz, and this is Zed." John handed a buisiness card to Chloe, who just stared at it.
"... "Master of the Dark Arts"?"
"Oh, sorry, that's an old one." John reached into his wallet and grabbed a different card for Chloe. This one read "John Constantine: Paranormal Investigator, Exorcist, and Demonologist"
"Uh huh. Well, you're welcome to take a look, but this is an active crime scene Mr. Constantine, so don't mess with the evidence."
"Mr. Constantine was me da. Call me John." Constantine winked at Chloe, who simply looked disgusted.
"No." Chloe walked back over to the body, and Lucifer aproached the young woman Zed.
"Hello. Zed, was it? Lucifer Morningstar, pleasure to meet you." He held out his hand for her.
"Likewise. Nice to-" she took his hand, got a horrified look on her face, and pulled back.
"... You okay, darling?"
"Yeah, yeah. I'm just, I gotta go help John." she shuffled off to where the blond man was, leaving Lucifer standing there dumbfounded.
"Ah, Zed, need to you try and get a vision of what we're dealing with. Just kinda lean in here and-"
"John, when I touched that guy, I saw something. He had wings, but they were on fire. No, wait, they were made of fire... And he called himself Lucifer." she whispered to him, and John glanced at her, then stared at Lucifer and smiled.
"... it's HIM."
