The Incarnation of Devil
Chapter One: Home
My Star Ocean Fanfic Disclaimer: Things I will clarify for Star Ocean 2 and/or Blue Sphere and/or EX: I was raised with the PS1 version, so names and any dialogue will be taken from that version (save for the names of the Ten Wise Men, which I prefer their original Japanese names that were later used in the PSP remake). Things to clarify for Star Ocean 1: I am used to the SNES emulated version, so I'm sorry if I tend to jump between translations for things. Again, I much prefer the Japanese naming conventions here.
Things to clarify for Star Ocean 4: None, except my love for Sera and "Stab the Sword of Justice"'s remix...
3 is so completely awful that I refuse to awknowledge it anywhere outside this sentence.
A/N: A series of drabbles about Lucifer. Implied, one-sided LuciferxGabriel (CyrilxIndalecio for those used to the PSX version). Please don't use my OC, Dr. Lucel, without my permission.. Thanks!
Lucifer was content as he looked around the room he had been given high atop Fienal's tower. There was a large, orange, glass dome in the center. He knew that Gabriel's room would lay just beyond and something about that made him more giddy of his arrangements. He had his hands on his hips a moment before he decided that was too showy and decided to go over-the-top and fly across the room, his red, lightning wings flickering behind him. "This will do wonderfully," he mused.
Gabriel watched from the corner of the room, his arms crossed. "Stop. Did you get the needed materials for the canon?"
Lucifer settled in the center of the room that would eventually be his destruction and faced Gabriel, "Of course."
"Then, we must take care of that battleship," Gabriel demanded, bundling his fist. "I'm sure you'll enjoy destroying them as much as I will, vicariously."
Lucifer could only nod as his technical, master, left. He turned away as if the man was still standing there and growled to himself, "The goal is the destruction of the universe... what will killing them matter once our plan is achieved, aside to prove to me further that you're nothing but a sadistic madman...? While I'm left to wonder what I really am. A weapon? No, you said that was only how we started..." He brushed back his silver-white locks as anger boiled in him, "Who was I before you put my mind is this destructive body? Is it the source of these feelings for you? A hate and a love I should be incapable of describing? If so... is that further the reason I am the only one who wasn't reprogrammed at all?"
Moments later, Gabriel returned, finding his subordinate on his knees as if hurt. "Get up. Those pesks from Eluria are here."
Lucifer glanced up into those cold red eyes and stood. He started to reach out to brush Gabriel's- no, Dr. Lantis' cheek –but the demigod disappeared as quickly as he had arrived, leaving Lucifer- once a man named Dr. Lusel –alone again.
