The Devil, the detective and the spawn where all snuggled into the couch in a perfect image of domesticity when suddenly they where interrupted by a figure who had materialized between the small family and the TV which had been showing Ant man.
The Devil sensing no mal content from him asked unconcerned and seemingly bored as he paused the movie through his angelic brother "what do you want Mikey"
The tall angel before them who was dressed in a simple outfit of jeans and a novelty t-shirt that says 'God said do that, and I said "rather visit the devil"' answered a little apprehensively almost like he was embarrassed and worried about his brother's reaction "Have you seen Cas"
But before the older of the two could explode with the worry that had formed instantly under his skin at the name of the younger angel his girlfriend had interrupted the two by whacking him well meaningly as she exclaimed "you have a twin"
"yes" the two identical angels chorused like it was no big deal before a slightly angry mostly worried Lucifer continued imploring of his twin "Why do you not know where Cas is"
Michael bit his lip and looked over at the wall for a second before he said with a sheepish smile "he ran away when heaven decided to instigate the abominations release and start the apocalypse"
The devils gaze went from barely contained concern for his favorite little brother to are you stupid in less then a split second before he shouted at the top of his lungs in his brothers face no longer worrying about what Trixie might here "YOU TRIED TO START THE APOCALAPSE"
"yes can we get back to finding Cas know" said the embarrassed of the two celestial beings in the room before his moments older brother continued "AND YOU RELEASED THE ABOMINATION OF HELL" Lucifer looked at Michael unbelievingly before continuing astonished "why in hell would you do that"
Chloe having sort of caught up after getting over the shock that there was a second Lucifer standing in her living room asked curiously and a little fearfully thinking of Trixie "the abomination of hell"
It was now Lucifer turn to look regretful and embarrassed as he looked to the ground and mumbled something that was incoherent even to his brothers supernatural hearing.
Michael having gained some of his usual riches nous back said "yes Lucifer, who is the abomination of hell?"
Though the second he had said that he was faced with the devil's best glare as he said "a mistake which I rectified by locking in the most secure corner of hell when I realized I could not kill it"
Michael bit his lip silently looking at the floor before mumbling coherently "It wasn't my idea"
"then, whose was it?" Lucifer asked impatiently looking at is sheepish brother demanding an answer and hoping above all it was not Cas
"Zack" mike then paused before continuing "Zack used are brothers and sisters still in heaven insisting that it was mine and dad's plan and that no matter what rumors where that you hadn't just been sent to hell but where looked in a cage in hell, apparently he had be spreading that for long enough that even lilth and Azazel started to believe him. I think he was hoping that once the abomination was out I would be forced to fight it and we would have our apocalypse"
Lucifer thought this over and was consumed by an anger at his brother before a thought struck him like a ton of bricks and he lunged forwarded grabbing his brother by the shirt and thrusting him up against the wall and ignored Chloe's shocked "Lucifer" he continued saying very levelly into his brother's face holding back the anger hoping he wasn't right "Did Naomi get to him?"
Michael dropped his eyes solemnly before looking back up into his brother's eyes and solemnly saying "y-yes"
His voice taught with raw pain and anger "you let them?"
His brother still hanging by his shirt looked down in shame telling him heart broken "no it was after Dad and Gabe had left I was doing his paperwork trying miserably to fill his shoes when Amenadiel refused and wondering why I hadn't either when every high ranking seraph in the silver city walked in a fought me down till I was covered in a net of hell chains and surrounded be holy fire and by the time they let me out he thought he was a fledgling and asked me what my name was" at that point the younger of the two heavenly twins started leaking tears "Luci he didn't even remember my name or you"
Seeing his brother breaking into heart wrenching tears and having heard he was not at fault for their little brother loosing his memory he pulled his twin into a hug which he accented by curling his stark white wings around his obviously tired and lonely brother.
After a heart wrenching second between the brothers Trixie whispered to loudly to her mother "but who Is the abomanation of hell? And is he talking about the Cas Lucifer always tells stories about?"
The brothers took one last moment to savoir the touch of their twin which neither had felt in millennia before they turned and Lucifer said clearly as he whipped tears out of his eyes "the abomination of hell was a mistake I made when I first got to hell" he took a long breath before launching into the explanation proper "When I first got to hell I was so hurt and I channeled that pain both physical and mental into being angry so I wouldn't go insane and in that anger I tried to create an angel, but it was an angel born of hatred in the darkest depths of hell, an angel shaped of ash and brought to life by the light of anger so no matter what I tried it could not understand anything but anger and when it started to hear stories of the devil of who everyone said he was he decided that he was the devil that he was Lucifer and before I was able to trap him with a little bit of dad's help not that I realized it at the time I had trapped him in a cage in the depths of hell to rot forever"
Chloe having sort of got the conversation earlier and followed his explanation closely asked "so there is a nearly invincible being out their who thinks he is Lucifer, wants to fight you" she gestured at mike "and every one else thinks is Lucifer to"
Mike being honestly surprised at how well his brother's detective had grasped it all and starting to understand why his brother liked her so much Michael corrected her slightly "actually I never finished he thinks I am in the cage but it is actually zack who is in their, and he is out again at very low power allowing his host body the reigns so the hunters who tried to kill him didn't try again while he was healing and so he could get away from them"
Lucifer once again rounded on his twin "why do they think you are in the cage?"
"when I refused to fight Zack went in my stead believing he could win since he is so close to an archangel power wise, but the aforementioned hunters threw them both into the cage one of the hunters going with them before I could do anything and then Cas sort of rescued the hunter" mike looked into the identical copy of his own face hoping his twin would understand.
"he left his soul behind" Lucifer said interested to meet this soulless hunter before his brother put a fork in that idea "yeah but gramps fetched it later"
"what" Chloe exclaimed and when the two archangels turned her way not understanding what she did not understand "you have a grandfather"
"yes, don't you" asked Michael not understanding why this is news or in anyway important right now.
Lucifer actually understanding where the question came from says "I believe she is referring to the fact that the humans believe that our family tree ends in dad"
Michael's morphs into a look of shock before saying "okay that's weird" before continuing on the original topic "anyways that is not why I came. I came because an alternate universe version of me that is terrible and not of his own body like our younger siblings is running around making hybrid monsters, the abomination is lose again, I haven't actually told the hunters and Cas that they got it all wrong, and then there is the nephilim. And I just need help man, I am way over my head"
Lucifer just sat there for a second going through his words before saying "what nephilim and where in hell is dad"
Mike seamed lost for words for a little bit before saying "well you kinda missed a lot"
Lucifer looking at his twin worriedly before asking cautiously "like what"
Mike looked back and said quietly but understandably "dad hasn't been in heaven for centuries and sorta ran off with Amara a few years back, you know when the sun died"
"Amara is out" Luci Exclaimed surprised and more then a little bit worried
"yep" Mike said as if this monumental course of events was old news
"and they haven't killed each other yet" Lucifer asked now a little over his worry for the Detective based off of his brothers lack of exclamation but no more curios then ever because his parents relationship was bad but god and Amara where way worse.
"they tried" Mike said again like this was not an element that should be focused on like this event that could literally end the universe was old news.
"Who is Amara" Chloe asked now even more confused with this new character added into her boyfriends epic saga of a life.
"Our Aunt" Both Angels said distractedly at the same time while having a tiny stare down that as almost like they were having a silent and private conversation.
"oh" Chloe said even more surprised that the celestial beings had a normal family with extended members
"what do you mean they tried" Lucifer asked correctly assuming it has something to do with the sun going out a few years back.
"well they tried but those Hunters convinced them to talk it out" Mike said like these Hunters fixing their massive family issues was normal.
"How" Lucifer mumbled but was ignored as his lovely partner stepped in with a far more important statement.
"kind of sounds like we need to talk to these Hunter Lucifer" Chloe said into the weirdly silent living room before mumbling to herself "Whatever Hunters are"
"Yes it does sound like the next logical step" Lucifer said distractedly still trying to imagine his father and aunt talking it out like normal human beings and trying not to laugh at the thought.
"Who are they" Trixie asked having kept up with the conversation and curious to who the hell these people who had done so much for the world where.
"The Winchesters" where the only words that echoed through the now silent living room.
