Love and Vengeance Chapter 10
Chloe, Maze, and Amenadiel were at Chloe's house and they had asked for Linda to come over so that they could discuss what their options were. It was a little late but not too late and after hearing the whole story about what happened at Lucifer's penthouse Linda knew that she needed to come over.
"If he is speaking telepathically like that it means that he has regained his full powers back" Maze said with worry and fear in her voice, and that terrified Chloe and Linda because they were not used to her ever being scared of anything.
"What do you mean his full powers, he has more powers then what he has already shown?" Linda asked feeling a little frightened herself, she knew that Lucifer now felt betrayed and hurt by his parents and that was a very dangerous thing.
"Yes he has many powers, he is among the most powerful of us" Amenadiel said with deep thought in his eyes, Lucifers words had hit him hard, he now knew what Lucifer felt like all those eons ago to be a fallen angel and to be left behind he then continued
"When Lucifer left hell, he had left all his hellish powers behind" and then Maze spoke up and said
"And when he had me cut off his wings he lost much more of his power, the Lucifer that worked with you Chloe everyday was only at around ten percent of his true power, if that" Chloe shuddered a little at the thought of that and she felt her body shaking, this was shaking her to her core and she replied almost disbelievingly
"But I saw him with one arm push a grown man over twenty feet through a thick window, and I saw him hold another man who was at least two hundred fifty pounds up with one hand like it was nothing, and I see him bring out peoples desires everyday, he has done so many strange and amazing things, and your saying that he hasn't even been close to his full power?" Maze and Amenadiel both nodded their head to show that Chloe was correct in her assumption.
"Lucifer isn't evil and he hasn't really ever cared about power, he has always just been trying to understand himself and human emotion" Linda said as professionally as she could
"If Lucifer somehow grew his wings back and went down to hell to gain all of his powers back, that means that something has shifted in his mind to push him to this, he feels betrayed, manipulated, lied to, and abandoned" Linda finished saying. Chloe, Maze, and Amenadiel looked at the woman realizing she was right.
"When I was with his mom at the bar and he saw the picture of Amenadiel with Chloe's mom, his face and his demeanor changed, he looked broken, he closed his eyes and when he opened them, it was like he was shattered" Chloe felt her own heart breaking again thinking about what she just heard and she said
"That must be when he came over to my house, he showed up and he was angry, he asked me if I knew, he said to me the whole bloody time did you know?, I've always been so used to him saying crazy things that I just forgot about it, and right before that my nose had started bleeding from the poison". The four of them were going over the crazy events of the last couple days because, it truly had shaken all of them.
Before Lucifer Chloe was kind of alone, she had Dan but the marriage and relationship was broken, she had her mother but they often disagreed and they weren't always as close as Chloe hoped they could be, and she had her wonderful daughter Trixie whom she loved. Lucifer then came into her life and it was like a hurricane that changed everything for her, he was annoying and strange at first but then they slowly became friends, and partners, then he became her best friend. Lucifer had helped her repair her reputation at her job, he made her laugh with his jokes and his craziness, because of him she had met Maze and Linda, and though Ella worked with them at the LAPD Chloe would never have become friends without Lucifer because it was because of Lucifer that she had opened up more to the idea of friendship with others, Without Lucifer Ella would have been just another co-worker. Lucifer truly had changed her life in so many ways and not just her life but he was always making Trixie smile. Chloe knew that Trixie was suffering from anxiety and depression because of the issues that her and Dan had and the separation and the divorce really hit Trixie hard, but Lucifer seemed to take all of Trixie's sadness when he was around and the more Chloe thought about all this the more she just wanted her Lucifer back, he had changed her life and she loved him for it.
"He asked me to watch over you, while he went to the room below yours" Maze then spoke up remembering the events vividly
"I could't kill him, I just couldn't do it" Linda nodded her head and said
"I couldn't do it either, then he in his Lucifer way took the defibulator from us and did it himself"
"Lucifer had to go to hell to get the formula, it was the only chance to save you Chloe" Amenadiel said looking at the woman. Chloe gave a small smile and looked at Maze and Amenadiel and said as kindly as she could
"You crazy celestial people have become a part of my life now, and Trixie's life" Chloe then broke into tears and said
"I just want everything to go back to being right, this isn't right, I just want Lucifer back and for everything to go back to the way it was before" Maze then stood up and quickly walked over and gave Chloe a big hug and she held her close, she wasn't used to this kind of human emotion but she wanted to be there for Chloe and then Linda stood up and walked over to Chloe and Maze and wrapped her arms around both Chloe and Maze and the three tribe members just hugged each other, and Maze and Linda just wanted to make their friend feel better.
Amenadiel just saw the three of them hugging and tears started falling from his own eyes as he just sat there wondering how all of this happened, how it got to this point, and what they were going to do next.
Chloe still crying and being hugged by Maze and Linda said almost pleadingly as she looked upward
"God, if your up there listening, please I'm praying and asking that somehow you make this right, please make it right" right after Chloe said that prayer a light shined in the room making the four of them look away and after they blinked their eyes a few times and cleared their vision Chloe stared in shock as she stared at the two figures in her room and she could only mutter
"Father Frank, and...Dad".
