The Morningstar Estate, London,

"What the bloody hell do you mean Dad's gone?!" Lucifer growled.

"I mean that he left his tower and none of us know where he went," Michael told him. "He left without any warning,"

"And why should I care about that old loon anyway?" Lucifer asked.

Michael gently rested his hand on his brother's shoulder. "Because he is our father and we are his sons,"

"He no longer thinks of me as a son, he has made that clear," Lucifer snarled.

Michael sighed. "I know you and Dad had a pretty big falling out but-"

Lucifer glared at his brother. "A falling out? I can assure you brother it was much worse than that,"

"Yeah, I can image it was," Michael huffed.

"Are you insinuating something?" Lucifer asked.

Michael shrugged. "Well, none of us were really surprised after you're rebellion. You were never good at following orders,"

"Why should I listen to anything he says," Lucifer nearly growled.

"Because you are his son! And good sons follow orders," Michael snapped. "It's just a shame you were his favorite only to disappoint him the most,"

"Really?" Lucifer snarled. "I'm a disappointment because I couldn't be a perfect little solider!"

Lucifer stood up and grabbed his brother by the shirt. "Or maybe I should just be more like little Michael. Yes sir, right away sir, whatever you want sir," he mocked.

Michael quickly turned the tables and slammed his brother onto the nearby table. "At least then, maybe our family wouldn't have been broken apart!"

"You really blame me for the mess that is our family?" Lucifer asked, less angry and more hurt.

Michael took a calming breath and loosened his grip on his brother. "No. No, I don't,"

He took a seat on a chair near Lucifer and let his head fall into his hands.

Lucifer sat up and extending an arm to set on his brother's shoulder. "Michael, I understand that-"

"No, you don't understand Lucifer!" Michael cried. "I tried to be the perfect son to father. I did everything he ordered, yet in the end, he pitied me. He pitied me because I wasn't more like you!"

"And what gave you that impression?" Lucifer asked quietly.

"Let's just say I may have had an argument with Dad before I left the Silver City," Michael sighed.

"You never did say why you left," Lucifer pointed out.

Michael smirked. "You never did say why you left L.A.,"

"Yeah, why did you leave L.A.?" Elaine asked. The two brothers looked up to see her coming down the stairs. "Did something happen?"

Lucifer went over to the bar counter and poured himself a drink. "Well, its a long story,"

Elaine pulled up a chair. "Well, I'm listening,"

Lucifer smiled. "Okay, so we were tracking down some begrudged professor…"

Decker-Smith Residence, Los Angeles,

"He hasn't answered any of my texts, calls, or emails, and I am getting pretty worried Dan," Chloe sighed, setting the mail down on her counter.

"It's only been a few days, he may just be blowing off some steam," Dan told her.

"But why wouldn't he say anything? You know that something isn't right about this Dan," Chloe sighed.

Dan nodded. "So, the circumstances may be odd for him, but that is no reason to jump to conclusions. I bet he'll either be back soon or that you'll hear from him soon,"

Chloe shook her head. "I still don't like it," she huffed.

"What are you going to do about it Chloe, follow a missing persons report?" Dan asked sarcastically.

"That's it!" Chloe exclaimed, reaching for her phone.

Dan grabbed it before she could. "Seriously Chloe, you need to calm down and wait. You said you've talked to Maze about it, right?"

"Yeah, but Maze still hasn't gotten back to me. I honestly think she has no idea either and is just trying to spare my feelings," Chloe sighed.

"What about that brother of his? The tall guy?" Dan asked.

"I hadn't thought about asking Amenadiel," Chloe murmured.

Dan nodded. "Asking the family should be the first thing before filing a missing persons report, you know that Chloe,"

At that moment, Maze and Amenadiel came through the door and Chloe rushed over to them. "Have you guys heard anything from Lucifer?!"

Maze and Amenadiel looked at each other carefully before turning back to Chloe.

"Not exactly," Amenadiel sighed.

Chloe's face fell and she immediately turned to Dan again. "That's it, I'm calling it in,"

"Chloe, I said I hadn't heard anything from Lucifer, but I am pretty sure that he is visiting family now. There is no need to get the police involved," Amenadiel told her calmly.

"But, then why isn't he answering his phone?" Chloe asked.

Amenadiel shrugged. "He may be a little busy-"

"I even tried tracking him through GPS, but nothing came up," Chloe huffed.

"His phone may not work overseas, or maybe you tried calling him while he was in the air," Amenadiel suggested.

"Wait, he left the country?!" Chloe snapped.

Amenadiel was not sure what to tell her. He looked to Maze for help, but she just left him hanging.

Dan looked up from his phone. "Hey Chloe, we're needed at the station,"

"But-"

"Chloe, it sounds pretty important. If Lucifer's not in immediate danger, then there is no need to freak out," Dan said.

"I can watch Trixie and I'll let you interrogate Amenadiel later," Maze told her.

Despite Chloe's continued protests, they got her and Dan out the door in record time. And once they were out the door, Maze dragged her friend over to the couch. "What's wrong with you?" Maze asked.

Amenadiel leaned backing, taking some offense. "What do you mean?"

"What I mean is, why have you been acting so weird this past day and a half?" Maze clarified. "You seem even stiffer than usual. Is it because we, you know-"

"No, it has nothing to do with us Maze," Amenadiel assured her.

"Then what is it? And don't try to sell me that you're just worried about your brother," Maze huffed.

Amenadiel shook his head. "It's just that something feels, well something feels wrong,"

"Wrong?" Maze echoed.

"I can't describe it, but it's like everything around us is unstable or something, like, on a molecular level," Amenadiel confided in her.

"What do you think is causing this?" Maze asked.

"I-" Amenadiel was cut off by Trixie running downstairs.

"Amenadiel! What are you doing here?" Trixie squealed, running to the couch to greet him.

"Hello Trixie," Amenadiel smiled.

Trixie grinned as she looked between Maze and Amenadiel. "Do you guys need some alone time?"

Amenadiel raised an eyebrow. "What do you mean?"

"You know, to do adult stuff," Trixie giggled.

Maze's eyes went wide. "Uh, kid, I think it's time for you to go work on your homework,"

"But you already had me do it," Trixie pointed it out.

"Well is your room clean?" Maze asked.

Trixie nodded with pride. "Yep, so know it's time for me to watch t.v.,"

"Fine," Maze told her, handing her the remote.

Trixie cheered and wiggled herself in-between the two on the couch and turned on her favorite program.

London, England,

"…So it can't be real," Lucifer sighed.

Elaine nodded soberly. "I'm sorry Lucifer,"

"Sorry?" Michael huffed. "Lucifer, you're acting like an idiot,"

Elaine glared at her biological father. "Really?"

Michael shrugged in defense. "I mean, even if this detective was meant to lure you into some kind of trap- which I doubt she is, and if she isn't even aware of it, then all you are doing is running away from someone who seems to really care about you,"

"I wouldn't call it running," Lucifer mumbled.

Michael raised an eyebrow. "Really? You don't call flying half way across the world without even texting her running away?"

"I, I just haven't had the chance yet-"

"You've had at least twenty chances," Michael told him.

"Maybe you should focus more on trying to find Dad then getting involved in my love life," Lucifer snapped, trying to distract his brother.

"Wait, love life? Are you saying…." Elaine giggled suggestively.

"Fine, my personal life," Lucifer corrected. "But I don't see why- Hey! Michael! Give me back my phone!"

Michael avoided his brother's attempt to get the device back while he scrolled through the contacts. "Det. Decker," He snickered, hitting the FaceTime button.

"Michael give me my phone back this instant!" Lucifer growled, his eyes flashing red.

Michael ignored his brother and attempted to find sanctuary in a guest room.

The Precinct, Los Angeles,

Chloe stood on the Lieutenant's office, pretending to be interested in whatever the meeting was about. She could not pull her thoughts away from Lucifer, who would find such a meeting useless and dreadful. And even though she could have sworn that she had turned her phone off, Chloe heard the familiar ringing. After sneaking a peek at the caller ID, she rushed out of the office.

Dan, noticing her quick exist, followed her out into the hallway. "Chloe, is everything okay?"

"It's Lucifer!" came her only explanation. She ducked into the lab for some privacy and answered the call.

"L-Lucifer?" Chloe asked hopefully.

A clear picture of Michael smiled back at her. "Is the Detective Decker?" he asked.

Chloe raised an eyebrow. "Of course it is. Am I not coming through? Are you okay Lucifer? You look different, and you left without saying a word-"

"Give me back my phone you imposter!" Lucifer's yell came from the other room.

"Lucifer, what's going on?" Chloe asked.

Michael sighed. "Well, for starters, I'm not Lucifer,"

At that moment Lucifer burst through the guest room door and lunged for his phone. "Michael!"

Michael dodged his brother and held the phone tight.

Chloe squinted at the picture, now seeing double.

"Want me to put it on the big screen?" Ella asked her, still smiling that Chloe hadn't even noticed her in the room.

Chloe gave her a quick nod then Ella put the call on the larger screen so that her, Chloe, and Dan could get a better view of the two brothers.

"Give me my phone Michael! I need to speak to the Detective!" Lucifer grumbled, swatting at his brother.

"But I just want to say hello," Michael said innocently.

"Can you stop for a minute and explain to me what is going on!" Chloe snapped, causing both brothers to turn their heads to the screen.

Lucifer took the opportunity to grab the phone out of his brother's hands and looked at Chloe. "Good afternoon Detective,"

"Lucifer! So help me god-"

"She really does like bringing Dad up, doesn't she?" Michael popped in, still visible to the side of the screen.

"Who is that?" Dan asked.

"Oh let me introduce you to my incredibly ill-timed, annoying brother Michael," Lucifer huffed.

Michael gave them a little wave.

Chloe took a step back. "You never mentioned having an identical twin brother," she swallowed.

"We're not identical!" Lucifer huffed.

Michael turned to his brother and gave him an Oh really? look.

"Okay, so yes, I have a brother who was born within moments of me and looks eerily similar," Lucifer shrugged.

"So, Lucifer, aren't you going to introduce me to your friends?" Michael asked.

"Oh, right. Detective Chloe Decker is right here, that man over there is Dan, I bet you can guess what his profession is," Lucifer snickered.

Michael thought for a moment. "Oh, he's a Bobbie, isn't he,"

Hearing Lucifer's laughter, Dan had to ask. "What's a Bobbie?"

"Oh, a cop Dan. He agrees that you look like a cop," Lucifer clarified.

"Aren't you forgetting someone?" Ella asked, moving so that she was better in view of the bothers.

"Oh yes, Michael, this is Ms. Ella Lopez, our resident forensic specialist," Lucifer introduced.

Michael gave her a cute little grin. "Lovely to meet you,"

"Wait, where are you Lucifer?" Chloe piped up.

"Don't worry about-"

"We're in London," Michael answered for his brother.

"Sometimes Michael, sometimes," Lucifer cursed.

"What are you doing in London?" Dan asked.

Michael gave them a charming grin. "Oh, just taking care of some family business. Lucifer just wanted to call, check in, and make sure you knew that everything is alright,"

"Oh," Chloe said. "Well I would have appreciated if you would have let me known earlier,"

"Sorry, things have a been a bit hectic," Lucifer admitted sheepishly.

Michael glanced down at his watch before looking up. "I hate to break this little reunion up, but we have a lead we need to go follow up on,"

"A lead?" Chloe asked. "Are you working on some sort of a case?"

"It's nothing of your concern Detective, as I said earlier this is a family matter. We are just going to check in with an old friend tonight," Michael explained.

A snarky grin slowly appeared on Lucifer's face. "Yes. An old friend. Whom we have scheduled dinner with,"

Michael groaned. "Lucifer, I beg you not to say it again,"

"Say what?" Chloe asked.

"That tonight-"

"Lucifer, I'm warning you!"

Lucifer smirked. "Tonight we have a date with Destiny,"

"A date?" Chloe asked cautiously.

Lucifer's eyes widened. "Oh. By date I mean a dinner to discuss business. And Destiny's a guy, as I might add,"

Michael rolled his eyes. "Like that matters to you,"

"Seriously?" Lucifer huffed.

Before Chloe, Dan, or even Ella could say anything else, a young woman's voice came from the other end of the phone. "Guys! We need to get going!"

"Nice meeting you all," Michael said genuinely before leaving the room.

This left only Lucifer. "Well, um, I've got to leave as well, but I'm glad I got to talk to you all,"

"When are you coming back?" Chloe asked, hints of desperation in her voice.

Lucifer could only offer up a small shrug. "I'm really not sure,"

Chloe nodded. "Luc-"

"Lucifer!" Elaine's voice came from the other end. "Come on, we need to get going!"

"Goodbye Detectives, Ella," Lucifer said quickly before ending the call.

Lucifer sighed, letting his shoulders sink.

Elaine popped her head into the guest room to check on her uncle. "Lucifer? Everything okay?"

Lucifer nodded and stood up. "Yes, I'm fine. Just give me a moment and I'll be ready to leave,"

"Good," Elaine sighed. "Because we all know what's at stake with this,"

Lucifer gave her a reassuring smile. "Yeah, but if anyone can figure this out, it's us,"

Elaine smiled. "Okay, I'll go wait downstairs,"

As Lucifer watched his niece leave, he thought to himself that despite his brother's annoying traits, at least it got him to actually talk to his dear detective.

Thanks for reading everyone! What did you think of Michael? It was fun to be able to write him in a fun light for a little bit. And Elaine didn't do much in this chapter, but she will play a major role later in the story (or sequel). If you liked this chapter, and want a chapter 3, please leave a review! They are like magical unicorn dreams that inspire me to write and update quicker. Thanks ~AzulaTano.
