So here we go the final chapter! Enjoy and hang in there my readers we will get though the worlds pandemic.
The next day, there was no leads on Kinley's whearabouts, the trail went cold since he escaped. Selene had spent the night with Lucifer while she asked her cousins to look after her horses until she got home. She felt bad having to ask them, but they had a family fun night this time. They could party without it really being any work involved, and in the hottest club in all of LA too. Lucifer was having a blast happy to be himself again he hated the idea of not being around the humans again, that he would hide away, or abandon everyone he cares for.
Another reason he was celebrating was not just the fact he is back to normal, but also the fact Linda has given birth to his nephew Charlie. He had to figure out a gift for Linda, he decided to look though his stash of artifacts though out the ages, given to him by some famous people from back then. He knew he was the one responceable for their suscess with his deals, he found the perfect gift for the doctor once he found it, Sigmond Froyd's journal.
As much as Lucifer knew he was a horibal man for what he has done to inocent people, treating them like expiraments, he recalled a case that did such a thing. He knew the killer of that case died and went to hell, and how he had to go to hell to save Chloe's life. He knew Sigmond was in hell to in a well thought out puishment designed by himself, the thought of letting Linda have it made it all feel right for everything she has done to help him.
Lucifer smiled and got to work on getting the gift ready, Selene had already left early that morning to check the bar for deliveries. She knew she was going to be late to see the new baby she had told Lucifer to go on without her, so he did just that he went to the hospital without her there. He recalled the bombshell news to him that she was keeping the bar closed longer to remodle, she was actually looking forward to upgrading the bar little by little for her location was once a roller rink with a medium size parking lot that held a nice amout of people to keep her business going.
Lucifer did help out by pointing her to the right contractors and designers that actually owed him favors even after the many times Lux needed to get fixed up after fights break out or when things went wrong with the plumming and the bathroom walls had to be replaced. Selene hated to use his name to bypass expences she was about to spend calling the contractors to help with the project.
It didn't take long to meet up at the hospital from the bar, Selene was excited to meet the new angel baby, she had been working hard with her powers. She took the elevator up to the labor floor and found Lucifer holding baby Charlie. She couldn't help but smile seeing him hold a baby wanting to sneak a picture, but he looked uncomfortable passing Charlie back quickly. "Hey." Amenadiel turned arround,"Selene, I'm glad to see you here." Lucifer went in to Linda's room"I'll let you two talk." he said entering and closing the door.
Selene smiled,"I would been here sooner but I had matters to attend do at the bar I'm looking into some remodling work." she smiled and sanatized her hands before touching Charlie."Welcome to the world little one,I'm your auntie Selene when mommy is better or if daddy wants he can always bring you over any time to see me while I'm home." she cooed to Charlie grinning,"Of course I will bring him to see you." he said feeling guilty that he was going to be taking Charlie to heaven after what he went though. "I'm really happy for you Amenadiel, listen you may be in some ways like your father, but you are not him. Keep that in mind when your having doubts about your parenting, kids don't come with manuals. If we did then your dad would be the one to hold the key since we are of his creation."
Amenadiel was surpised Selene had the nerve to give him a motivation like she did, but she was right about it and it made him second guess himself, he still had time to make up his mind when he looked at Linda and Lucifer talking, "I sopose you are right I am not my father." Selene looked at him,"Actually come to think of it, Amenadiel, I'm surpised none of your other siblings have bothered to visit? They obviously should know they have a nephew...or are they advoiding coming to earth because of Lucifer?" she asked him caustiously but also honest question knowing how much the family all shunned Lucifer, and she had her fair share of family advoiding family and causing a straining relationship.
"No, no, nothing of the sort, it's just us angels have our tasks to do to keep things going here on Earth, we don't just lay around on clouds. Like you we all have jobs to do, sorta like our own personal chores fitting for our powers." he said lowly Selene nodded in understanding then looked at his cooing son falling asleep,"Either way, he will be surrounded with people who love and care about him, what matters most is that he's healthy as can be." Suddenly her phone went off and she had to answer it" Oh, excuse me for a moment." she took the call and walked down to get better reception to talk, While the nurse came to put the tracker on Charlie.
Selene then visited Linda for a while untill she saw a video come up on her news feed of her social media with Holla murdered on camera then got a message to come to the crime scene. She couldn't beleive that Holla was dead when she got there and got told about finding her business cards. "I can't beleive Holla is dead...this just ain't right." Selene said looking at them,"How do you know Holla?" Selene gave them a look,"I've met him a few times when I helped with car troubble he's cool we had a few drinks. It's actually nice to have a pleasent conversation with a celeberity dispite what the media says or makes people beleive. I'm not a crazed fangirl that treat them like there royalty. Fan or not I treat everyone with southren hospitality."
Dan, Ella, and Chloe looked at Selene," Do you have any idea who could have done this?" Chloe askd Ella and Dan piped up," I think I know judging by what Holla said in the video his special guest." Chloe looked at him confused,"You do? Who?" Selene had to think back "You don't think it was-" Dan nodded"Monopolize." Selene nodded as she did remeber hearing about the feud between them," Who?" Chloe asked as they looked at her like she was crazy.
"You never herd of the Mo-Holla squalla?" Chloe shook her head "He's a rapper." Dan said as he started beat boxing with Ella rapping abit, "I've never herd of him." she said as Selene was surpised, "He was the accused suspect for killing his homie Fat Cannon. Though nothing was ever proven." Selene said as Ella stepped in,"They had the biggest beef since Biggie and Tupac, but anyway this dosn't make sence." Selene said,"If Holla's talking about him in this video...then why kill him live infront of everyone if it was personal beef? Ya know?" she said rewatching the video on her phone.
"She's right, Holla looks too happy in this video, He wasn't expecting this either." Dan said Selene shrugged not exactly sure herself she had a few ideas. Suddenly they herd a banging and they all saw Lucifer saying something about not being called for a case. Chloe sighed,"I told him to take some time off." Selene chuckled,"It's Lucifer, you know how much he enjoys working, he's like someone who found a job that makes them happy." Chloe walked out to have a talk with him,"I think it would be best if you came along Selene." Selene nodded followed her out listing to Chloe scolding Lucifer. In the distance Father Kinely and Holla were standing by each other watching Lucifer.
They arrive at Monopolize's front gate, Selene got out of her Jeep,"Lifestyles of the rich and tasteless." Lucifer said looking around,"Looks like Liberace had a yard sale." Selene looked around when she saw the horse statue,"I don't know some of the decor ain't so bad, you don't really need to have taste to apprecate art, especially carvings." Chloe was watching Lucifer figuring out the gate,"Yeah. Well, Mo's manager,Isaac, lives here. Looks like he's home. Maybe Mo is here too." Lucifer was too focused on the gate.
Selene checked her phone deciding to stay by the brick wall,"Y'all, might wanna becareful, you don't know if theres alarms on the gate. They could be armed too." Selene did come prepared with her gun if need be to help defend," What are you doing." Chloe said to Lucifer. "Don't worry, Detective. Now that everything is sorted, I've got all the perks of devilhood with no drawbacks. So rest assured, nothing evil will be released." He said banging the gate just right making it screech open. "Sounds like it needs some WD-40" Selene cringed when suddenly there was gunfire and Selene had already taken cover crouching low behind the gate. Lucifer and Chloe took cover behind her.
"LAPD! Stand down!" Chloe shouted when a voice called out,"LAPD?" they saw Monopolize and possibly Isaac walking over,"Why didn't you say so." Mo said as his manager spoke up,"Yeah, before you broke my goddamn gate, y'all." They walk though the gate now knowing it was safe and joined them inside to talk. "I apologize for shooting at you. Seriously. I'm not a violent man." Chloe was leaning in the doorway as Selene was looking around. "Well, the Desert Eagle that you just opened fired on us says differently." Isaac walked back in carrying a hot pocket offering it up, Selene snatched it up when no one else wanted it and started to eat,"Oh,I love hot pockets bribe me with this and any kind of deal is sealed."
They all looked at Selene like she was crazy."What? I'm serious I may not entirely like rap, I actually do like laid back kind of rap makes me feel kinda mello there is one I do like to sing to." Isacc was quite curious to hear this as well as Mo they all seemed intrested."I do happen to have a little recording room for Mo when inspiration hits care to see." She grinned and her eyes lit up"Oh, yes, please." Isacc showed her the way while Mo gave Lucifer and Chloe his full attention.
"Look, Holla and I had conflict. But we were about to burry the hatchet, sopose to meet up this morning to announce were dropping a joint album and tour." Lucifer made acomment,"Instead, he was the one who got dropped." Selene shook her head at Lucifer insulting the dead victem while she left the room. it wasn't long untill Issac returned,"Hey Mo tell them what you told me." he said looking at Mo. "Sorry, look, this is going to sound crazy, but Holla isn't actually dead." Chloe jumped in on that staement,"Well, thats impossible. Forensics says hes dead."
Mo shook his head,"I don't care what they say. I'm telling you,I was walking to the studio and I see a man dressed in leather in the doorway. I see his hands are all bloody, so I back up quick. Then a few seconds later, Holla comes out, all bloody and shit with a knife sticking out of his chest. He was happy as a goddam lamb." Issac looked at mo "Clam. It's clam, bro. Tell them what you told me about the car that was crazy too. Didnt you say it was a pizza delivery car or something?" Mo snapped his finger "Oh, yeah, yeah, Pazo Papollo's Pizza." Lucifer gave him a weird look like he wasn't beleiving the story,"Right. Puff a bit of this before you left, did you?"
Mo wasn't goig to denie it," A little bit. But I swear I aint lying." Chloe nodded not buying it" Were going to need you to come down to the station to verify your story." Mo couldn't be more happier,"Gladly. Safer there then out here." Issac had checked on what Selene was up to as she was in process of multitasking, writing down lyrics she was busting out to a copy of Mo's new record demo. When he thew the headphones on to hear he couldn't beleive his ears, She had made his work sound better. She had finished with what Mo had thrown together for himself Issac took the demo copy out and had to have mo listen.
Issac ran out excited,"Mo, My man you got to hear this." He said passing him the headphones and the MP3 player storing all of Monopolize's demo work and clicked play from the begining. Chloe and Lucifer were quite confused with the fuss, issac looked at them,"Your friend or who ever that girl is you brought along, is a genius." Selene had walked out on the phone having to leave leaving her card on the table," Sorry, guys I love to follow in more on this case I have some matters to attend to. Seems some remodling work has gone wrong I'll be at the bar." Selene had ended her phone call hurrying on out to her jeep and to get out of there and to her bar.
Later on that evening Chloe had sent Lucifer home due to evidence proving Holla is alive had closed the case for her. Deep down it wasn't that simple so Chloe decided to take a visit to Selene at the bar knowing she was sill there. She had to talk about whats going on in her mind to someone else and not Lucifer, to not give him the wrong idea it was really puzzling her recalling Mo's story and the video. So many questions that needed answers to make sence of everything. Chloe pulled into the parking lot and got out to head inside, seeing the inside being remoddled after the crazy bar fight.
"Selene? Are you here?" Chloe called out as Selene had emerged from the back room,"Right here,Chloe." she waved for her come with her to the basment room. Chloe followed smelling weed and whiskey." What's up Chlo? you mentioned something about the case bothering you." She asked shutting the door,"The evidence proves Holla being dead, but according to Mo's story he's not." Chloe pulled up a pic that Ella had found,"Check this out." she passed Selene the tablet. Selene looked at the picture of Holla alive and well,"Fake death? to get out of show with Mo? I'm sorry but thats kinda skeptical...why freak fans out with such a stunt?" Chloe gave her a hard stare" Look closer." Selene blinked and enlarged the photo.
To her shock she couldn't beleive who was with Holla Bae, Father Kinley. Selene's eyes narrowed at this "Kinley? there working together? I don't know what Kinley hopes to accomplish but we gotta stop it before Lucifer gets hurt...or worse.." her eyes glowed silver then something clicks in her head that made her heart drop and turn to Chloe with a glare" Chloe the evidence showed Holla's blood at the crime scene, dead, now not dead? tying in with Kinley...were missing something...it can't be about the prophacy since thats taken care of..."Chloe looked at her"Unless there's more to the prophacy that has been withheld?" Selene shrugged thinking about it"I guess that is possible."
The buzzing in her ear got louder and she completely paled,"Oh god. I just had a crazy thought, Kinley's been trying to send Lucifer back to hell right?" Chloe nodded listening attentively,"What if he is using Holla as a trump card, I can only think of one idea of what he could be up to, and we can't let it happen if it's the case." Chloe blinked not quite getting it,"The only last shot I can think of is if Kinley has taken the most riskiest route." Realization hit Chloe like bricks" he's looking for either a spell or someplace to set the trap for Lucifer." Selene nodded,"First were going to need proof. Let's go find out what Kinley is up too first before we make a move." Chloe nodded as they head out to the place Kinley and Holla were last seen to find clues.
That night Selene and Chloe entered the church from the photo, the place was errie quiet when they slipped inside guns ready, they started the search Selene was ahearing to all her sensitized sences for any voices aproaching all the rooms, dispite Selene having powers she still felt safer with a gun. Suddenly they herd a bang and Selene went on ahead since she could protect them both from whatever Kinley has. Chloe had a feeling they were walking into a trap, but she let Selene move ahead of her to check out the sound.
Selene took a deep breath and was about to check the room, Maze jumps out startling Selene making her scream and stumble into the wall"Maze! Ugh, you nearly made me jump out of my skin." Selene was trying to calm herself,"Why you here?" she asked confused to see her."I was tracking Kinley, figured he be here, but the trail has gone cold. Now you two." Chloe spoke up,"Were on a case. A dead rapper, well, not dead so it seems, But a whitness told us this crazy story that he saw the victem with a knife sticking out of his chest. I have no idea what's going on." Maze gave her a look like she had a bad feeling,"Wait. Dead then not dead?" There was silence between the 3,"I think I do." Maze filled them in as they followed her to talk.
"So you're saying there are two murderous demons on the loose in los Angeles?" Chloe said trying to understand as Selene wasn't thriled with the news,"Yeah. And one appears to have entered Kinley's body." Selene then feared the worst"And the other...is likely in Holla's body...poor Holla he didn't deserve to die to be a home for demonic posession." Chloe looked at Maze," And they,or you...can just jump into a human's body when ever you want?". Maze had to think about how to explain things to them. She crossed her arms,"The..body has to belong to a dead, doomed soul or a demon wouldn't know where or when there was a recent vacancy."
Selene's mind went to Holla and everything she has read up on him since she met him, for him to be damed for hell? It didn't make sence to her. They wern't close but no one deserved to be murdered for a demon to be summoned to earth, Kinley on the other hand she felt he deserved hell for the manipulations he has done to hurt Lucifer. But knowing his body has a demon too made her beleive Kinley was killed by somone else, perhaps his victims family member? Who ever killed Kinley didn't matter anymore he was no longer on earth in anyway. The important problem at hand is the two demons. "Least we don't have to truely worry about Kinley hurting Lucifer, still, this is bad, two demons are loose." Selene said Maze gave them," No. But what ever demon's taken over his body better be worried. Lucifer's going to be pissed. He banned posession years ago."
Chloe wasn't surpised neither was Selene, the fact that Maze speaks the truth she knows Lucifer is likely to tear them apart when he finds out. " Something's clearly changed." Selene said and turned to Chloe" Chloe you go back to the station and find out if Ella knows anything or has any more Holla sightings, where we find Holla's body we will find Kinley as well since there working together, Maze and I will tell Lucifer about this." Chloe nodded and they went their seprate ways
Meanwhile in Lux, Lucifer was pouring himself another drink when suddenly a voice calling his name made him freeze, then turn around slowly to see the body formally reconized as Kinley. Lucifer looked quite confused seeing him rush over putting his drink down"Lucifer. Oh!" He pulled Lucifer into a hug catching Lucifer completely off guard"Oh! We've missed you so damn much. Oh. Mmm." Lucifer struggled out of the hug and pushed him away untill he realized that it didn't sound like Kinley at all when he began to kneel." Forgive me,my king. Hey, it's just so great to see you." It didn't take Lucifer long to realize just who was in Kinley's body.
"Dromos?" He said confused when Dromos started to laugh looking at the body formally belonging to Holla Bae"You see Squee? I told you he'd reconize me." Lucifer was confused on why they were on earth."But...what are you doing here?" Dromos smiled at him,"We'ere here for you of course. To help you get back home." Lucifer was speechless and couldn't find the words to say, he wasn't sure what to think either or how to feel about theses two roaming earth unsupervised.
Lucifer sat with Dromos listening to his story making some of the ladies next to him think he was telling a joke, Lucifer was still trying to wrap his head around on how to feel about Dromos and Squee on earth. To him the demons in question were harmless threat wise and not the brightest, but to living humans was a different story. Harming and tourtuing dead souls was one thing, but living humans was somthing he knew he had to make sure they never harm anyone else. Lucifer was starting to hate the sound of Dromos talking with Kinley's voice, telling his side of the story about meeting Kinley in hell.
Lucifer smiled and chuckled with amused grin,"Oh I get it now, this is Kinley's hail Mary. His final attempt to subvert the prophecy by tricking me into returning." he tried to not laugh but couldn't help it, "Voluntarily!" He laughed untill he calmed down holding his glass. "Well, it's a admirable plan, but he needn't have bothered. I've just beaten the prophecy on my own. Besides... no way in hell I'd ever return to...well, you know." He said taking a drink Dromos looked at his king like he was hurt. "Lucifer. You've been on vacation forever. You didn't write, you didn't call. You didn't even send a burnt offering. the demons of Hell...they need a king."
Lucifer looked at dromos and sighed"Very well. Dromos of the Lilim, by te power of Grayskull, blah di blah di blah, I hearby name you King of Hell. There you go, throne's all yours." Dromos was confused by Lucifer's joke to him,"Yeah, thats really funny. But we all know the king...he needs to be an angel." Lucifer knew the trick wasn't going to work and he hated that Dromos was right."Fair point,yeah. " Dromos looked at Lucifer like he didn't reconize his once fearful king acting like this. "Lucifer. Hell has been really bad since you left." Lucifer still didn't care as his voice dripped with sarcastic scoff" Oh, thats a shame, because it was a real vacation destination before."
"What's so great about Earth anyway?" Lucifer leaned forward," Well, no offence, but the company's far greater, the work more intresting and the liquor far superior." he took a chug of his drink. "Mm! And i've just become a uncle and someone needs to teach my nephew about sex, because...my brother's certainly not capeable. So. Back to hell you go, it seems." Lucifer stood up ready to leave his eyes on Dromos," Those eyeballs won't pop themselves out." Dromos stood up as well to say his goodbyes,"Alright. I think we might stay for a little bit. I've never tortured...a live one."
Dromos had pushed the wrong button with Lucifer. Lucifer was far to calm then his eyes turned red and forced Dromos down choaking him against the seat, his voice had a demonic growl close enough for dromos to hear him," You will not lay a hand on anyone. You're lucky I haven't incinerated you already for disobeying my order's. No more possession. Time for all good demons...to go home. Now." he growled at Dromos his red eyes glaring at his eyes. "Yes...my lord." Lucifer let him go with a pat on the shoulder and walked away, deciding to call it a night early he went back up to his penthouse.
When he got to his penthouse he made his way to the bar to have a drink to take to his room while he changed into his satin pajamas, shirtless, not even covering with his robe he threw on. He even put his phone on charge this way it was ready incase the detective needed him, he wondered if he should tell her about the demons roaming around. On the other hand he knew it would cause her to panic and worry more, so would Selene, and if Maze would have found them first she wouldn't hesitate to force Dromos and Squee back to hell. Selene...his mind began to think about her, he still can't get over the fact she has Asariel's powers.
Lucifer had a fine tune memory when it came to people he interacts, like his siblings, he might have been away from them so long but he still remembers everything about them. Asariel, was different she changes along with the phase of the moon in the emotional and mental. Lucifer reflected everything since he met Selene, the signs were there that she was changing alot, it made him wonder if she has wings as well, he tried to imagine Selene with Asariel's fairy wings and angel wings with a fine dress fit for a Goddess. It made him all the more attracted to her that both type of wings would suite Selene, but also asks more and more questions he can't ask about Selene and her new found powers.
Deep down he really wants to see just what Selene is capeable of with Asariel's powers, but he hoped Dromos did go back to hell. In the middle of thinking he dosed off on his couch, drink in hand, looking quite relaxed and peaceful. A half hour later the elevator dinged, Maze and Selene spots Lucifer sleeping, she really dosn't want to wake him but Maze walked up to him. Selene followed her to the couch standing next to her leaning to Lucifer,"Lucifer!" they both barked in union startling him awake with a gasp," Am I dreaming? No, I can't be, you're both dressed."
Maze crossed her arms,"We've got a situation. Demons are roaming the Earth." Lucifer leaned back like the news wasn't special, "Oh, is that all? Well, I already know. I saw them earlier. It seems Kinley summoned them to take me back to Hell. His last-ditch attempt to squash the prophecy." he told them as they looked at each other then back to him, Maze was clearly not happy. "But don't worry, crisis adverted. I sent them packing. And besides, the demons in question, Dromos and Squee, hardly the brightest bulbs in the hellfire chandelier." Maze looked at Selene," I hate thoes two. Especially Squee." Lucifer piped up,"Well, everyone hates Squee."
"Anyway, I'm getting my knives. Incase thoes two idiots get lost on their way home." Maze said leaving him alone with Selene has he got up from his seat to fill his glass. Selene walked over to Lucifer and grabbed a glass from the bar to fill,"It's not like you to leave a killer- Holla's Killer- off the hook like that especially if that killer happens to be a demon ." Lucifer knew she had a point, Dromos did take a human life, that sort of thing is unforgiveable, and Squee was inhabiting Holla's body. "What makes you think thoses two are gonna go back to hell right away? Dromos most likely killed two people already according to Mo's story about the pizza delivery car. They might not be the brightest bulbs, where ever there at in LA someole else is likely to die by them if they decide to have some fun of their own."
Lucifer rolled his eyes at her,"Well, that's what Maze is for, she is Hell's finest torture. I'm sure she will take the time to punish them before sending them back to hell." he said sipping on his drink," How did you get to know of this information?" he asked eyeing her she couldn't lie to him she sipped on her drink before speaking," Chloe showed me a picture a fan of Holla's took, we enlarged the picture and there we saw father Kinley and Holla together. So, we went to check things out together, ran into Maze and filled her in for us to get some information from her about them being demons and how posession works." Lucifer gave Selene a displeased look," Oh, did you now?"
Selene sighed "Luce, it's not like that, at the time Chloe and I thought it actually was Kinley and he was up to no good, so we were hoping to stop him together. But, now that we know it's not really Kinley in there I told Chloe to head back to the station to find more leads to find them, while Maze and I came to give you the heads up." she said looking at him in the eyes. "I'm glad we know about them being posessed by demons, things would have gone bad if we did go along with stopping them, although, I probably would stand a better chance then Chloe taking on demons giving her time to run." Lucifer chuckled but he would never want to see her touched by such filthy beasts.
"About that,love, I wouldn't doubt that you could handle yourself. I would never let a demon lay a hand on you. Well, exsept Maze of course...but that's not important I-" Selene's phone went off," Hold that thought." She looked at her text and her eyes widened. "We need to get to Linda's it's Charlie." Lucifer didn't waste time to get dressed, something was wrong while Selene waited outside Lux. He caught up with her and drove her with him over to Linda's house to find out what's going on.
At Linda's house Linda was explaining everything that happened Selene couldn't beleive her ears that Amenadiel would do such a thing. She had wondered where Amenadiel was agreeing with Linda admitting to overreacting she had to put her two cents of comfort,"It's normal to have anxiety over new child Linda I'm sure hes safe and sound." Maze had stormed into Linda's earlier as she was pissed and about to go hunting, Amenadiel came home. Selene watched Linda go off on him, he looked competely confused as did Lucifer hearing his brother's story.
Chloe had Amenadiel confirm a photo of the night nurse. It wasn't the woman he handed Charlie too, this worried amenadiel not relaizing that wasn't the nurse Linda hired. Selene wasn't surpised babynapping wasn't rare but she had to wonder who would take Charlie. After getting everything the needed Selene left with Lucifer to head back to the station to get more info on the kinnapper suspect. They spent time boucing back and forth ideas and connections with Kinley and Holla bae, when Lucifer had to pull Chloe and Selene aside to tell them his thoughts.
Selene had a feeling there are more demons then just Dromos and Squee, Selene shot Maze a warning of the new details by text of what they know to keep her in the loop since she stayed behind to comfort Linda for a few. Selene agreed to stay at the penthouse with him to come up with a game plan to get Charlie back. Selene had left with Lucifer while Chloe stayed behind to finish up and would catch up later. When they got to the penthouse Lucifer and Selene found it trashed they walked out in shock of the mess. Lucifer let out a sigh and began to look around to see if anything was missing.
"They did this. Vile demons, trying to get back at me with aimless distruction." Selene looked arround at the mess," Lucifer...this ain't aimless this was also recent. We haven't been gone that long...they had to have known we left to look for something..." She noticed Lucifer looking at his safe as it was open. "My safe is open..." he walked over to it to see if anything was missing."Well, cash is all her- oh,no..." The elevator dinged in time for Chloe to see the mess," Lucifer what happened here?" Selene looked at Chloe,"Demons ransacked the place...they stole something obviously." She walked over to Lucifer.
"What's wrong?" Lucifer looked like he wasn't pleased."It's gone, the vial is gone." Selene was confused on what he ment and Chloe spoke up not happy he kept the thing," Kinley's Vial? you kept that?" Chloe said walking over to them. "Well I didn't think it was something I could just toss down the drain." he was starting to sound a bit upset as he went over to pour himself a drink," I was going to chuck it out with our spent batteries." Selene didn't understand why a vial was so important. "Vial? What vial? What would demons want with it anyway." she asked Lucifer and he stopped before he could drink with a fighting realization that made his eyes widened.
"No. They're not trying to get back at me. They're trying to replace me." Selenes eyes widened as did Chloe's,"Replace you? How can that be possible?" Selene asked as Lucifer faced them both. "Hell was built so that no demon could take the throne. Only a celestial can rule. An angel. But...I sopose half a angel would do." Chloe and Selene looked at him in shock,"Charlie." they said un union. Lucifer nodded "Since I refuse to return it seems they're intent on raising their own king." Selene was confused as she always known Lucifer doesn't want the throne, yet he seems to fear loosing it because of the demons.
"Lucifer...if they had time to take Charlie,you can garentee they probbly killed a few more inocent people to help with their plan. You know there not going to let us get Charlie back easily. Not to mention there revolting against you because you abanodned the throne." Chloe chimed in on the vial issue,"If they got Kinley's vial then they plan on doing the same ceremony that Kinley was going to perform on-" He cut her off,"On me? So come on, tell us, detective, once you served up this holy, anointed sedative, where was this ceremony to take place, back when you wanted me in hell?" Selene looked at Chloe wanting to hear this seeing as now she was hearing more of what she tried to use on him.
"Well, as you know. I didn't go though with it. I know he mentioned a church." Lucifer nodded,"Great. There's what, only 2,3,000 of those in LA?" Chloe was taking a moment to remeber what Kinley told her," He said specifically that it had to be a house of worship, but also a den of sin." Selene was puzzled by that one," A place of worship and a den of sin? that dosn't sound much like a church,more like a temple." Chloe and Lucifer gave Selene their attention "Wait, If I recall my history right, their was once a civilization that praticed human scafices in temples,...They gotta be at the Myan since its available right now due to Mo and Holla not performing tonight." Selene said as Chloe and Lucifer caught on.
"They also rent out to chruch groups..." Lucifer thought about it" Sex, drugs, rock n roll and dad rolled into one. that sounds like the oxymoronic venue were after." Selene took a big hit from her joint she decided to light up and puff on while she downed a drink since she would never know if it might be her last. She was going to help in ways that no other human can, plus she needed to take a hit to Dromos a few times for murdering Holla. She was looking for revenge, plus the more demons there are, the better to let loose and still protect and escape with Charlie in tow.
Soon as Selene was done getting high, they headed on out to the Myan. Selene took the ride with Lucifer, she told Maze and Amenadiel where Charlie is just as they were 3 minutes away from the venue. While waiting for them to arrive they began to diverge a plan for the LAPD after the fight was over and the demons vacated the bodies of the humans they took over. Once Maza and Amenadiel showed up Chloe stayed behind while watching them go inside to get charlie back. Selene took a deep breath she was ready to do this, a full test of her powers on some posessed bodies of humans, not what she really hoped to use her powers on.
Meanwhile inside the Myan, Charlie cries waiting for the bottle, as they put the liquid from the vial into the bottle after having to cool it down from it being too hot. Lucifer, Selene, Amenadiel and Maze walked up to the alter/ stage in time to distract Dromos from giving Charlie the bottle,"Dromos." Lucifer called out stopping in his track. Dromos looked up at Lucifer," Surely you herd breast is best." Dromos laughed at Lucifer, "Now, you see...the thing is...I don't take orders from you anymore. Not since the whole abdication thing. So...long live King Charlie, going to be a hell of a ruler. Pun intended."
Dromos leaned over Charlie, grinning at Lucifer as everyone glared at him and the other demons standing with him," Because I'm going to mold him into exactly what I want. You know, you gotta admit you've been a bit of a selfish king. Keeping the whole Earth thing to yourself." Amenadiel was tired of listening to Dromos," Give me my son!" Selene fliched a bit hearing Amenadiel yell at Dromos, Selene was deciding just what she was going to start out her fight, Maze had her knives ready to get fighting and send them back to hell.
"Over my dead body." Dromos laughed at his own joke,"Oh, thats right. It's already dead, so...you're going to have to get creative." Maze and Amenadiel jumped down ready to get the fighting started,Selene stood by Lucifer her eyes glowed silver and her hands sparked. Squee was about to leave them to check on the rest of the demons, Selene was much quicker with her powers and with the power of the shadows she slammed Squee around like a ragdoll and held him trapped and unable to escape, as if bound by shadow chains. Maze and Amenadiel were kicking ass with the demons they were fighting.
Lucifer had his eyes on Dromos as he picked up Charlie and was going to leave, Lucifer was making the first move since Dromos hasn't. Selene used her shadowbolts to give Amenadiel and Maze the big opening to do damage. She had faith in herself she had her eyes on the baby and saw Lucifer was about to fight two demons on his own, looking around she had to use her resourceful prowless and came up with a sneak attack plan. Selene vanished into her own shadow and managed to slip around behind Dromos, collecting what she saw make a useful blindfold.
Selene appeared behind Dromos covered his head blinding him and got a few knee shots in," This is for...my friend you murdered!" She growled kneeing Dromos hard in the crotch, face was still covered so she punched him in the face with a swift right hook. Lucifer flipped the demons he was stuck fighting for a opening to snatch Charlie from dazed Dromos. Selene snatched Charlie fleeing but gets caught up in the chaotic fight in the room to flee with Charlie safely. Selene felt lucky to have quick reflex when it came to needing to duck, dodge, and run.
She mentally thanked playing Dodgeball as a kid did her some good training as she always ends up the lone survior every game. Selene managed to flee the room, and find herself in the darkness of the ally when she opened the door. She looked around and used her power to bring the box over, put Charlie down in the box and put some soothing music from her phone into the box with him at a soothing level of volume,"Hang in there sweet boy, you'll be in your mommy's arms." she whispered then hid him next to the dumpster and put a shadow sheild around him to keep him safe and hidden.
Just as Selene had Charlie hidden, a woman likely has a demon in her had followed her out. Selene didnt waste time to throw punches and took a few good slaps to the face," Your going to wish you never came to Earth." Selene's eyes glowed bright she pounced on the demon and gave a good punch in the face before being thrown off. Selene wasnt giving up so easily, she used the shadows to her advantage by turning into the darkness that surrounded them.
The demon growled searching for signs of her, but was met with a shadowbolt trap, and Selene appearing tackleing the demon into empty boxes away from Charlie. Selene groaned from doing such a stunt knowing she was going to feel it big time, she had much more to worry about then her body aches. Charlie was her number one priority and the 'never been a mother but will protect like one' fire in her glowing silver eyes was burning bright. She felt good struggling with the demon, the fight showed no mercy to each other for every blow there was a counter. Selene took a chance to stick up her gun and blow out the charging demons brains out to end the fight.
She caught her breath having blown out the now demonless corpse back to hell, Charlie was safe in a shadow vail, she went back inside to see how things were going. When she got back inside things seemed far too quiet, she didn't like the silence too much though the church. Something in her instincts said something was very wrong here, things were just too easy with the lack of demons. Selene melted into the shadows and used it to travel back to the room where she left everyone. Maze and Amenadiel had Dromos restrained ready to be executed.
Selene made herself known appearing, her eyes were normal once again, She wanted to watch Lucifer punish Dromos for everything he has done since arriving on earth,"Oh, look who's here." Dromos smiled and waved at Selene glaring daggers at him. Lucifer turned to Selene with glowing red eyes,"Selene. Look away, I rather you not see this." Selene shook her head at Lucfer walking down from the stage "I want to watch, Luce, I want to see this demon scum get the punishment he deserves." Lucifer walked away from Dromos to have a quick word.
"I don't want you to see me like this." Selene smiled at him,"Lucifer, I know what I signed up for, ok, seeing you do this is minor compared to seeing your devil face. I can handle both, you are just doing what needs to be done." Dromos rolled his eyes still being held by Amenadiel and Maze with her blade at his throat read to slice. "You see, this is what I'm talking about. It's so sweet. I'm going to puke."
Lucifer was quite taken back by Selene," Lucifer, while I'm not afraid of you, who or what you are, one thing I am afraid of is... well, is loosing you." Lucifer didn't know how to respond to that, before he could say something a hord of demon posessed bodies spilled into the room. Selene got on the defensive and tried to shadowbolt alot of them but there was too many for her to hold off. Lucifer punched the one sneaking up on Selene as the room got crowded with snarling demons. Selene unleashed all her energy into blasting demons away, knocking them into other demons, with no avail of slowing down. Amenadiel was doing what he could to hold off a demon by the throat not wanting to loose Dromos.
"It's amazing how many demon souls you can source from a little church confession." he laughed as if he won among the snarling demons closing in on Lucifer and demons grabbed a hold of Selene and Lucifer was left stunned watching Selene being dragged into the sea of demons grabbing and dragging her away." Lucifer!" She called struggling against the horde of demons. Selene watched Lucifer turn to walk back to Dromos laughing, surpised that he was walking away from her being held captive by the demons.
It was then Selene understood what Lucifer was about to do. He went full devil before her eyes with a mighty roar quieting the demons and causing them to turn to Lucifer, his shirt shreaded as he pulled off what was left of his shirt. Selene had no fear hearing his'Devil voice' but chills spread though her body, seeing him taking charge again showing the demons that he is still king. "You'll bow down...to your king." All the demons released Selene and knelt before Lucifer obediently, exsept Maze as she stood behind Lucifer along with Amenadiel. Even Dromos got down on his knee before Lucifer not keeping his eyes off him.
Lucifer looked at all the demons in the room before his demonic voice boomed again,"You do not belong here. Go home!" All the demons obeyed and vacated the bodies as the corpes drop lifeless now that the demons have left them. Selene smiled at Lucifer seeing him in all his glory and power over the demons. Deep down Selene felt things will finally get back to normal, no more demonic threats, no more preist, Charlie was safe and sound she just needed to retrive him. Lucifer went back to normal as he wasn't looking directly at her, but it looked like his mind was elsewhere it made her wonder what he was thinking, or feeling from their moment before demons interupted.
With out a second thought Selene vanished in the darkness and went to fetch Charlie, to return him to Amenadiel to take home to Linda. Everyone was waiting outside for Selene to return with Charlie in her arms. One minute later Selene runs out of the ally clutching Charlie, Amenadiel happily scooped up Charlie and held him happy to have him back. Selene smiled happy to have reunited them together, "I had alot of fun fighting demons. I know I'm going to be sore in the morning." she loked a complete mess and smelled in need for a shower.
"I didn't think you would survive, you proved me wrong." Maze said as Selene grinned," Yes, well, I think this calls for getting freshed up and hitting up Lux for celebrating." Maze nodded feeling down for girl time but first she had to go back to Linda's to get changed and cleaned up herself so she left them alone." I couldn't agee more we all can use a good drink." Lucifer said escordting Selene back to his car,"Before you and Maze get wasted tonigt, darling, could I have a chance to be alone with you of course?"
Selene was not surpised by his question," Yes, first I could use a well deserved shower after having a back ally rumble with a demon." Lucifer chuckled,"I must say you held out there the best you can." Selene sat down in the car when he opened the door for her. Selene felt bad for distracting Lucifer from doing what he wanted to do to Dromos. The ride back to Lux was a quiet one, once they got there and up into the penthouse, Selene went right for a change of clothes and a hot shower. Lucifer made sure he had everthing set up before he strolled out and stood looking out on the balcony after making himself a drink filled to 4 fingers full. He nursed it, thinking, and waiting for Selene.
He dreaded for what he has to do, he knew he couldn't denie things anymore, his heart was breaking over the choice he has made. Weighing the pros and cons of his choice he knew neither of them would be happy, the last thing he wished for was to ever break Selene's heart. He had no idea how to express himself, he hoped the song he picked would let her understand how he's feeling right now, in this very moment. It didn't take long for Selene to come out looking fresh and clean, in a black velvet mesh long seleeve galaxy dress, and black 3 inch heels.
Her hair brushed out nicely, her rodeo queen necklace he gave her was around her neck, to him she looked breath taking even with damp hair, but he didn't bother to look at her. Selene made herself up a drink, checking her phone, and she walked over to Lucifer with a sigh looking at the full moon. "Well, Linda is happy to have Charlie back, the demons are gone and the cover story was believeable, given that Father Kinley was involved...so it's all over now right?" she sipped on her drink, Lucifer didn't move.
"I'd say yes, but I'd be lying. And...we both know I don't do that." Selene herd somber in his tone and in his eyes he sat his glass down,"Would you care to have this dance with me you look lovely tonight." Lucifer pulled out the sound system remote and held out his hand, she wondered what was on his mind right now or if something happened while she was buzy fighting with a demon. She recalled the way he acted when the demons swarmed and after he made them go back home, she took his hand putting her drink down, he pulled her into him when he hit play.
Putting the remote away Lucifer held her tight while the song played Chris Youngs 'Tomarrow' as Selene was hit with wave of emotions and questions he spoke durring the song," Listen, darling, tonight we won, but we've only just plugged one hole in the flimsy boat. The demons know I have no intentions on returning, they'll continue to defy me. It's only a matter of time before they find a way back and where they will end up." Selene was giving him his full attention as a lump formed in her throat fearing she knew where things were about to go.
(Selene's POV Thoughts)
I can't loose him..No I just...I can't *Sighs* what am I thinking of course...he's been distant since the demons have been around causing problems...they tried to replace him...that bothered him alot..I think he dosn't want to admit he loves being king...and I guess I just don't fit in his world...I'm too good for hell I don't belong there...neither dose he...
Ugh, this is the worst time to start thinking selfishly...this would have been bound to happen eventually...its hard I don't want to say goodbye...I can't I want to hold on to what we have...but it's for the best...I gotta let him go. Don't give him a reason to change his mind Selene c'mon show him what one should do, be strong, be supportive.
(Selene's POV thoughts end)
"I can't say they won't come after Charlie again, or...you for that matter." Selene tried to find her voice to speak to know what she wants to know, but her twisting stomach and wave of nausea washed over her." So...I guess..." She choaked up alittle as Lucifer remained the same expression," I have to go back." he whispered trying to be strong, knowing Selene will break soon so he sang the last half of the song to her rocking her in his embrace.
Baby, (when we're good, you know we're great
But there's too much bad for us to think)
That there's anything worth trying to save
[Chorus]
(But tonight I'm gonna give in one last time
Rock you strong in these arms of mine
Forget all the regrets that are bound to follow)
We're like fire and gasoline
I'm no good for you, you're no good for me
We only bring each other tears and sorrow
(But tonight, I'm gonna love you like there's no
Tomorrow) I'm gonna leave here
Yeah, I'm gonna let you go and walk away
Like every day I said I would
Selene broke the dance wit him there was hurt in her eyes, knowing he was going back to hell, she picked up her drink and took a sip she needed the liquid courage right now. "So... how long do you plan on being down there..." She turned away to collect herself, biting back the tears not wanting to hear what he was going to say, but she had to hear it. Lucifer shook his head slightly," I admit, we were wrong about the prophecy. This whole time I didn't want to believe it was about hell coming to Earth, It might be stopped now, but for how long?" Selene turned to him listening to him.
"I need to keep them contained they must have a king." Selene sucked in a deep breath and sighed with her head down she nodded," Maybe your right, I-I don't want you to go back... things won't be the same without you...but I understand." He looked at her puzzled she put on her brave face," I support you and your choice, we both know you don't really want to go back there, but, given the circumstances...theres really no other choice," She downed her drink. Lucifer looked at her not knowing what to say he felt frozen. " When my mom, was alive... there was a song she use to sing to me, that the hard thing we need to know is if we really want our love to show, we can either hold on to it or let it go. I guess letting go is just what were going to have to do." She said lighting up a roach joint to calm herself and looked up at the stars before looking at him.
Lucifer stared her down stoic even with tears threating to fill his eyes," Selene. If theres one thing I know, is that I don't think I could have picked a better worthy human to carry Asariel's powers. But...The prophecy wasn't wrong on the other matter, I have found my first love. You." Selene felt the sufficating pressure in her chest listening to him as a tear fell from her eye. Lucifer took a step forward lifting his hand he rested it on her cheek and wiped away her tear. "I was falling for you when I first saw you perform, I couldn't help myself I thought I would only see you just once and never again, but I was drawn to you, you peaked my intrest because you were never like the other lovers I had the pleasure of sleeping with."
He downed his drink and sat the glass down, and unfurled his wings "That's what makes you so special, you stand out to me." Selene looked in amazement for the first time she has finally seeing his angel wings they looked beautiful and white as snow. She noticed him looking at his wings as if he knew they were back to the wings he was created with, and looked like he was going to preen, instead he pulled out one of his small divine feathers handing it to her.
Selene looked at the feather confused why he was going to leave a piece of his divinity here with her." I might not be able to spend the rest of your life on Eath with you, but I would like to leave a part of me here with you." He kissed her with love, his wings wrapped around her. Tears fell as he kissed her with her eyes closed she savored the feeling of his beard, the kiss might have been a minute but it felt like forever. His wings spread back apart breaking the kiss with saddness "Goodbye." he took a step back and with a flap of his wings, he flew back to hell and Selene watched him go with waterfall of tears as he left her sight.
Selene choaked back sobs, she felt everything crashing like somone just set off the demolition charge and fell to peices from the blast. She shakily pulled out her phone looking at Lucifer's feather, she had a empty mint tin that she puts spare money in her bag and placed the feather gently inside and held it close to her heart and texted Maze she was coming over to Linda's to pick her up for girls night instead of meeting her at Lux. She sniffled putting the feather in her bag and walked to the bathroom to clean herself up of the tears after spending some time crying her eyes out untill she looked bloodshot and fixed herself up.
She went looking for all the furnature covers and just got down to covering everything up, she went down memorylane thinking about calling Lux home and move in while she could rent her house out. Her brain slapped her for such a idea she had to get out of there. She grabbed her bag took one last look before leaving her whispered voice cracked "Goodbye." The doors closed and she made her way to her Jeep, got in, lit a ciggerete and drove off into the night.
The end...for now...
