Chapter 4

The Powers of Demon Possession

She was full of fear as she held the books in her hands. But one thing comforted her. She was sure that many have done what she was and lived. Since they have lived, there was a chance so would she. "Are you too afraid to do what you've came for or is your desire stronger?" She straightened up her posture and nodded. "You've faced too much already to be afraid now. He'll want you." She made her way to the dark black door and knocked on it. It took a while before she saw a red face through the small peek hole. Normally, she would be screaming with fear of seeing a person with a plain red face and small black horns, but this is what she had expected. "I want to talk to him." She heard the demon snorted and she was guessing it was from them hearing this line too many times. "Try again." She whispered to herself. "You're right, he doesn't want to waste his valuable time on me." She put the books behind her back. "But I'm sure he would make time for someone that wants to praise, worship and adore him. In other words, treat him like the god he is. Do you really want to rob him of that?" The demon looked at her and she could see skeptical written on his face.
"You're just saying that." She nodded.
"You have every right in the book not to believe me. However, think of how much fun I can give you. If I fail to keep my word, you can have me thrown out like that." She snapped her fingers and watched the demon nod. He closed the small peek hole. A few seconds later, the door opened. She was surprised to see a beautiful demon that could pass for a beautiful human female in a blue business suit and high heels.
"I know, I don't look the way you thought I would." She looked up at her and bowed.
"I apologize, it's not like we get to see a lot of you on Earth." She nodded.
"Follow me." She followed her into Hell. She saw many other demons looking at her with curiously and checking her out. It didn't surprise her. She always figured demons were curious about the kind of humans that came to see him. It wasn't hard to also figure out that they figured no human that came through those doors were anything special. Hopefully, she could prove them wrong.

She came to a throne and bowed. "I apologize for interrupting the dark lord's time. I know how valuable time is and I didn't come to waste it."
"What have you come here for, girl?" His voice sounded a mixture of annoyed and curiously. She lifted her head and noticed it was dark all over his throne. The only thing he was allowing her to see was his right hand and part of his red right leg. The hand was red and the black fingernails long. All she could see was on the red leg was no hair. The fingernails were already scratching the post of his throne. Guess he had no intention in hiding his true feelings from her.
"I don't have to remind you that humans are curious and when they are curious enough, desperation sinks in."
"Are they wise enough to answer a simple question?"
"My creativity and imagination are good, but I know yours is better."
"Is that why you've came? To flatter me?" She gave a small smile.
"No. I came because like you, I want the best."
"The best at?"
"Obviously you can be the best at everything. However, the best I'm looking for is at imaginary and creativity. A god of your intelligence knows as well as I that going to the source is the only way to get authenticity." She heard a sigh.
"I've been around Earth longer than any of you have been created. Don't you think I've already known every story about me under the sun? Why would you think I would find your story any different than the last writer who showed me their work?"
"I'm not actually here for you. I'm here because there's someone you know better than any of us do."
"Demons?" His voice sounded confused and she shook her head.
"Humans have already been studying you and the demons. No, I'm referring to someone less known."
"The Antichrist?"
"Well, I wanted to make him be the Antichrist."
"Leave it to God to create someone that likes to drag things out. If he's so wonderful, he would have taught you how to value someone's time. Guess he's not a good father as he thinks he is. You're proof." She sighed.
"Baphomet. I want to do a story on Baphomet." There was a long pause.
"Why?" She held out the book that was in her hands.
"Why would you pass on the opportunity to think horrible of God's creation? You can add this to your list of proof." She was rewarded by seeing his left arm. It was red like his hands. He took the book from her.
"If you really wanted to impress me, you would have written a story where God is the bad guy and I'm the good." She smiled and crossed her arms.
"You could look at it this way when you read the book. God and his Angels dared to interfere with the one human you loved the most. They dared to stop you from showing proof of what a better husband and father you would made than him."
"Why are you showing this book to me if it's Baphomet you want?"
"I wanted to give you a preview of where my creativity and imagination stands. A writer who wants to keep working should show preview of their work."
"In other words, you're hoping your early work would impress Hell to work with you?" She nodded and there was another long pause. "He actually doesn't like to be disturbed when he's eating his feast unless it's important. If I were to say to you, if you shall make me look like a fool in front of him, your soul will be mine tonight. Not only that, but I would have the demons torture you in the worse ways possible, what would you say?"
"If you're asking me if I'm that confident that you won't look like a fool in front of Baphomet because of me, my confident is high enough to accept your terms."

"Demon, leave the room." She was surprised and looked at him confused.
"Why are you having her leave the room? She's beautiful!"
"Do you think I'm impressed by beauty as humans are?"
"No, but I would think you would want to show off how beautiful women like to be surrendered by you." The demon smiled and shook her head.
"Would it impress you?"
"No. Some women would want any man no matter the way he looks as long as he has money, power or fame."
"And that those things don't impress you?" She shook her head.
"Why? They only tell a little about the person. It doesn't say all about a person."
"Then why should the demon stay for your sake?"
"I apologize. This isn't my Hell, but yours."
"Demon leave." She left.

"What if I should say to you that he isn't real and doesn't live here?"
"I still wouldn't think coming to you would be a waste of time. Real or not, no one can know him better than you. It's not like God would talk about him."
"Stop your flattering, it's starting to sound like bullshit."
"Bullshit or not, it's still the truth."
"You weren't afraid to come to Hell to see me, so would you be afraid to see him?"
"Thanks to you, humans are starting to get used to the image of Baphomet. If I'm not afraid of your threats, why do you think I would be afraid of his?" He snorted.
"His threats could be worse than mine. Have you ever thought of that?" She smiled.
"You, of all people, should know Eve was willing to die to get what she wanted. Why do you think people have changed since that time?"
"The only reason I'm going to allow you to have a meeting with him is because I'm looking forward to seeing that confidence vanish. Once it does, only you would look like a fool and show everyone just how stupid you really are."

He finally stepped into the light and her eyes grew wide to his appearance. Before her mind had time to have self-control, her face was already showing she didn't. With her heart pounding loudly and her mouth drooling. She had never seen anyone that looked that good. She watched as he began to walk and she couldn't help but check him out from behind. He looked back and shook his head when he saw she wasn't moving. He turned his whole body to face her and crossed his arms. "It's a good thing God forbids me from having any sexual activity with his creation. Most of them are like you- arrogant and stupid. Making them useless. Remember my words. You make me look like a fool and you'll be paying the price." When she still didn't snap out of it, he clapped so loud, it brought her back to present. "Move!" She began to follow him.

Unlike Satan, Baphomet was out in the open and had enough light to see what he looked like and what he was doing. She could see Hollywood's version wasn't that far off. They never showed what he looked like when he ate and drank. She was trying not to vomit on what he was eating. Humans. Dead humans. She was guessing his drink was their blood. "Why should humans' sacrifices go to a waste?" He shrugged. "If God doesn't stop them, why should I? But you're not here to talk about my eating and drinking habits, are you?" She shook her head. "Figures." He looked up to the Devil. "I have to admit, I'm sorta impressed. Most people come to Hell to see you." He pointed a knife at him. "Very few come to see me." He resumed in cutting and eating. "Which only means you're with the Hollywood industry. Which part are you?" She bowed before him.
"My many apologies for interrupting what looks like to be a very good meal. You know how humans can be when they're desperate and seek out the gifts that only you can provide." There was a smile on his face, but he didn't look up.
"It's nice when humans know that Hell can provide good gifts. Gifts better than God, himself could provide. What gifts are you seeking today, my child?"
"Let's be honest. Hollywood has been giving bullshit stories on Hell. I think it's time that stops." He finally looked at her as he held the knife towards her.
"Some of the stories are good. Have you seen 'Legend'? Or even 'Lucifer'?" She nodded.
"My apologies, I should have said there's worse Satanic movies and television shows about Hell than there are good." He nodded and returned to his food and drink.
"That's where we're in an agreement and you think your team has come up with a good one?"
"If the story that I've written doesn't please you, my master," Both Satan and Baphomet looked at her in surprise. "I would allow you to help me in writing a story that will. If I fail to keep the story the way you would want it, you may do whatever you wish to do with me." She bowed again.

Demons started to enter the room and he stopped drinking and eating. "You have my entire attention. Don't make me regret doing so."
"So far, I've only written a few chapters. May I offer you the story?" He gestured for her to come, she gave the story to him and went back to stand before him. He began to skim through it. There was silence as all were watching him. He looked up and gave it to Satan.
"Read. I want to see if you would come to the same conclusion as I have." He took the book and began to read. Baphomet looked at her as his hands were clasped together under his chin. "I do have questions. What made you go this direction? Why have you entered sexual activity between Satan and you?"
"I know you're all demons." She looked around the room. "I know you don't like to remember your time as an Angel. What if your backstory was actually used to change history? Not even God's Angels have that kind of impact. God has his own prophets so why can't Hell? As for the sexual activities? Satan's the fun one." She crossed her arms. "He wouldn't allow his knowledge and wisdom to go to a waste. What's a better way to be memorable to the humans than to give them the best sex they ever had? Once he pleases them beyond their imagination, why wouldn't they want to please him in return? Isn't that the true meaning of a god? Both pleasing each other and not just one-sided?"

Baphomet stood up. "Let's test that." She looked at him confused. "I don't believe you have the power to please Satan during sex. I bet all the sex actions were bullshit. It's one thing to write words and another to actually live them while the action is going on."
"What would that prove?"
"If you can't prove you mean the things you write, why write them? How about we make ourselves a little deal? If you can prove you can do all the bullshit you wrote, I would allow you to continue to use sexual content in the stories. If not, you stop. Sound like something you can do? Before you answer, know one thing. He can please you way better than you can please him."

Before she could react, Satan grabbed her and they began to kiss. Please him, think of his needs! Her thoughts screamed but he was such a good kisser, she couldn't do it. He put his hand inside her pussy and began to finger her. Sex is about 2 people and not one! She knew this was a test that she was rapidity failing. Laugher broke out and she could see them pointing at her. Is this love? Making him please only you. You don't really love him? She used all the strength she had to pull him off her. Quickly, she got on her knees and began to work. The laugher and pointing stopped. They stared in amazement. She traced his dick with her two hands and looked up at him. "This dick is the most delicious I've ever had in my mouth. I want you to think of only one thing while I'm working on this sexy dick. What story do you want to give me? That you can release faster than any man can or that you enjoy my mouth better than they do? The choice is yours, dark lord and majesty." She resumed in working on him. Baphomet got into his face.
"Are you seriously going to allow a mere human to prove that they can please you more than you can please them? Are you going to take her word over mine?"
Take your dick and pound that pussy with everything you have. He was about to do so when her voice echoed into his mind. What story do you want to tell me? That you enjoy my mouth so much that's why you're taking so long or my mouth is so good you can't resist?
"How about I please both." He grabbed her by her hair and threw her on the floor. He began to pound her with all the strength he had.
"I don't mind. I already had a taste and now to feel it, I know how amazing it really is. You're wrong. The reason God forbidden you to have any sexual activity with us is because he doesn't want us finding out how good you are." She put her fingers into his mouth. "You kissed me like I've never been."

"You foolish human!" The whole Hell froze at the sound of Baphomet's angry voice. "God knew the dangers of eating the fruit of the tree and yet Eve did eat. You think God forbidden you not to have sex with Satan because it would be enjoyable?" He began to laugh. "You're truly stupid! He forbidden it because of how dangerous it is! You don't know what you've done!" As Satan pounded her on top, a song began to play in her head. She called it, 'Satan.'

Don't let him find you
Don't let him in
But if you don't want to listen
Don't be surprised to find
How dangerous
How bad he would go
Safe isn't what he knows

Yes, he knew it was wrong
But you knew it too
Still, you wanted to believe
All that was said
Wasn't true
Be careful
Cause good isn't what he knows

Dangerous
Bad
Evil
Live in his land
Once you enter
You can never turn back

If you wanna know why
Wanna know how it can be so
You must not have been
Paying attention
It was told time and time again
He doesn't listen
Doesn't follow the rules
He lives in a land
Where there's no turning back

Why don't you believe
The words that I say?
Is it because
You want to believe
He can do no wrong?
He's just someone that's
Misunderstood

Dangerous
Bad
Evil
Live in his land
Once you enter
You can never turn back

Don't let him find you
Don't let him in
But if you do
Don't be surprised to find
How dangerous
How bad he would go
Because safe isn't what he knows

Yes, he knew it was wrong
But you knew it too
Still, you wanted to believe
All that was said
Wasn't true
Be careful
Cause good isn't what he knows

Dangerous
Bad
Evil
Live in his land
Once you enter
You can never turn back

Dangerous
Bad
Evil
Live in his land
Once you enter
You can never turn back
Turn back.

"Enough!" Hell looked at Baphomet in surprise. "Fine, you can prove that you would do what you wrote in your stories." He crossed his arms and it wasn't hard to tell he was a mixture of angry and annoyed. "But what does a mere human like you have to offer us in exchange?" She looked down and could feel all eyes watching her. She finally looked up into the Devil's eyes.
"How I pity you! You rather have Baphomet rule over you than for you to rule over him. If he was a better leader than you were, he would have allowed you to release yourself before he told us to stop. He doesn't care of your sexual needs." She kissed him. Baphomet nodded and pulled Satan off her.
"I would allow him to continue if you can share with the entire kingdom of Hell what you have to offer. Because I have a feeling you have nothing!" She nodded and traced his face.
"You're right, the real challenge isn't pleasing Satan, it's pleasing you. The Bible gave us a cheat sheet on him, but not on you. You're not flattered that I've made you out to be the one that gives humans the gift to write? Alright, let me see if I can guess what you would like." He threw his head back and laughed.
"I doubt you have any idea what I like. But it would be interesting in watching you try." He gave her a fake smile.
"I can give you 2 promises in exchange, if you would allow me to write the most authentic story of you and Satan." She looked at him and began to kiss Baphomet. "I only ask that while I'm trying, you wouldn't rob me of my efforts and kiss me in return. Show me who is better you or him?"

He grabbed her waists and pinned her on the bed. "I'm not in the mood to flirt with you. Neither am I in the mood to prove anything to you."
"Even after I've proved that I knew there were more ways to please him than the average human?"
"What if I told you that to get what you want, you must please me instead?"
"That's fair. Alright, I know how valuable souls are to you. But I don't just want to give you my soul. I want to give you reasons why you should want it."
"Let me guess, you will kill for us? Sacrifice? Do all those violence things?" She shook her head.
"No, it's time Hell has seen and heard something different than those."
"Since it's me you have to please, I can please you while you tell me." He put his hand and began to rub her pussy. She began to moan and he nodded. "You think I can't make it harder for you?" She looked at him.
"I'll blasphemy God and think of you and Satan as both of my gods instead. I think Hell should look good and not bad. Let me represent both of you and I'll make you look so good, who would resist either one of you when you come to Earth to rule?" He looked at Satan and saw he was looking back at him.
"What would worshipping us as a god mean to you?" He began to kiss her body while still using his left hand to hold on to her left waist.
"Most don't know how to read the Bible, do they? The Bible is not only a book written from God, but also a book written from both of you." He let go of her left waist and continue to kiss her body downwards. He spread her legs and looked at her.
"How so?"
"Simple, the Bible says that the wife is supposed to be submit to her husband. You want your women or even those that consider themselves a woman, to submit to both of you." He looked at her.
"Keep going." She began to moan. Don't fail now, you're getting there! Her mind told her. She nodded and sat up.
"When two people get married, they become one. You can train me how to become like you and Satan. Isn't that what you want?" He traced her pussy with his finger and looked at her.
"Satan does a good job in twisting the Bible, I must admit it. However, you're worse than he is." She smiled and touched his goat-like horns.
"If my soul went towards that direction, would you want it?"
"There's one more thing that I should have warned you about when Eve ate the fruit."
"Oh?" He nodded.
"When she did, the evil part stayed with her which is why God had her die. If she had lived forever, so would the evil part."
"Your point is that if I go down this direction, there's no turning back, correct?" He nodded.
"Glad to see you're not as dumb as you look." She sat up and crossed her arms.
"Why are you surprised? Every human is the same. When desperation sinks in, they would do anything to not become desperate again. How am I any different?"

"Why did you stop me from finishing in pleasing you?" She got in position again.
"I apologize. I just got caught up in the moment."
"Don't think I can please you?" She shook her head.
"I know you can. But can you please me better than him?" She pointed at the Devil. "That's the real question." He stood up.
"I have nothing to prove to you. I know that I can do a much better job than he can." She nodded.
"You're right. If you refuse to work on this story with me, I guess my beliefs of you both are wrong." He chuckled.
"What are your beliefs of us?"
"That you enjoy a challenge just like I do. Not only would I be reading this story, but so will others. They won't be seeing my imagination and creativity; they will be seeing yours." He looked down.
"There would be something you would need to do in order for us to begin." She smiled.
"Let me guess, you want me to take the mark?"
"Do you know of a better way to inform the world that you're ours?" She nodded.
"In one of my stories, I've mentioned that Satan could label this body his. Be it, on my shoulder." She pointed to her upper shoulder. "It would say: Property of Satan. Or he could write just above my pussy," She pointed to the place. "'Satan's dick was here.' If I shall ever cheat on either one of you, who would want me after knowing that you both have already been there?" He shook his head.
"Where do you get these thoughts, my dark one?" She looked at him.
"I'm guessing from you." He threw his head back and laughed. When he calmed down, he shook his head. "As much as I would love to get credit for that dark mind of yours, the real credit belongs to the demons. When they entered your soul twice, they worked on changing you for the worse. Boy, did they do a hell of a job." She sat on her knees in front of him.
"Would you turn away someone that the demons have chosen? Someone that the demons have already worked on?" He looked at them and they were looking at him. "Would you allow their work go to a waste? I'm sure God would love to have me back."
"You think threatening me is going to work?" She laughed.
"What you see as a threat, I see as facts. Don't tell me you don't love desperate humans. I know you do." He held out his hand.
"Come with me, I want to show you something, my dear." She took his hand and they walked out of the room.

They came to a room that had souls lined up. Once he had guided them to the front of the line, he snapped his fingers. She was placed on a chair and a demon smiled at her. "You've signed the terms and conditions. Congratulations!" He stamped a 6 on her right upper shoulder. "This represents Satan as the False Prophet." He stamped a 6 on her left upper shoulder. "This represents you as the Great Whore of Babylon." He stamped another 6 on her stomach. "This represents Baphomet or the Antichrist." When she stood up, Baphomet came in front of her.
"Now that you've taken the mark, we can take you seriously. Follow me." Like a robot, she followed him.

They came to a room that had a long brown table and 3 chairs. At the far entrance, Baphomet took his seat. Satan took the right chair and Colleen took the left. "As we begin to work on this book, that seat will be yours. Do you understand?" She nodded. "Good. I've went through the chapters. I think the next chapter, we should focus on the demon's perspective."

Baphomet came in with his hands behind his back as he watched Satan and Colleen having sex. He went to the window and the demons came in. The one that brought her in came to stand beside him. He looked at the demon. "You better enjoy this moment. You have no idea what you've done." He looked up at him in confusion.
"Master, what do you mean?" He looked back at the window.
"Right now, he loves you. But after tonight," He looked at the couple. "He will hate you with passion for inviting her in."
"But why?" He looked at him.
"Because you've just brought in one of the most dangerous women you can for him." He nodded. "But he wouldn't believe any of us. It was best he figures out for himself."
"That woman is dangerous? She doesn't look like it." He shook his head as he pointed at her.
"I thought you've learned a long time ago, looks are deceiving. She'll soon change him." Colleen who was now back on the bottom with Satan on top, heard that and looked at him.
"No! I know humans will only change if they want to be changed, the same applies to him. I have no desire to change him." Baphomet sighed as he looked at her.
"Colleen, do you know what was dangerous about Eve eating the fruit off the tree?" She looked at him puzzled.
"That she disobeyed God?" He smiled and came towards the bed. He began to play with her breasts.
"If that was the only reason, do you think God would be so hard on humankind the way he was?" He licked her breasts with his tongue and she stared at him in shock. "No." He looked at her breasts as one of his hands stayed on it. "The reason God was so hard on humankind? He knew it would only make humans want to know more and not less about the dark side." He looked up at her. "You're no different. You will go deeper and further." Satan looked at him.
"I've already made her mine. She belongs to me and to all this kingdom!" His eyes were still on her and he smiled.
"It's a pity for God that humans want to know more about the evil side and not the good."
"We've only got his side of the story; you can't blame us for wanting the other side." He got up and went to the window again.
"Don't say I didn't warn you." They listened to the sound of the bed squeaking, Colleen's loud moaning and Satan pounding.

Baphomet went back to his headquarters and looked at the red and black landline phone. "Demons, I want the names of all the best news reporters that Earth has." A demon came in with a small book and Baphomet shook his head. "A pity to find so few."
"You know most reporters today like bullshit and lies." He nodded and looked up at the demon.
"The reporters must stop doing that. They have been crying wolf too many times. No one is going to buy their bullshit when we arrive to Earth."
"Look at it this way, my master," Baphomet picked up a lighter and smoked a cigarette. "If the reporters cry wolf too many times, who will believe them when they said we have arrived. There would be no fear or panic. And when they should find out the truth, it would be too late." He nodded.
"That's true. Thank you for your wisdom and knowledge. If your wisdom and knowledge can continue, who do you think I should pick?"
"For?" He smiled and tapped his cigarette on to a human astray.
"I want you to get one more demon to do a story about Colleen and Satan. I want it to be as good as any romantic story can." He looked confused.
"But my master, there has already been 'Legend,' and 'Lucifer,' what more do we need?"
"I won't deny they were both good stories, however, in 'Legend' Lili didn't go with Satan. 'Lucifer' wasn't dark enough." He nodded.
"So, you want us to do both a romantic and a dark story?" He nodded.
"After all, Colleen's going to be our little Whore of Babylon. I must agree with her. We need to make ourselves look good and not bad. But we can't hide our dark side either. We do have some followers even if they're hiding in secret." The demon picked up the book and scanned through it.
"I rather we have only one reporter this time. You remember what happened last time?" He nodded.
"To avoid that, I feel we must pick a Theistic Satanist for our reporter. That way we know they would take our work seriously.
"You come up with the best ideas. This one is a secret follower of ours." He circled it and gave to Baphomet. "Do you want us to reveal our real names?" He looked at him.
"Why don't you give the reporter the most famous demon names? Both of you can be either Beelzebub or Legion. Real names aren't that important. The story of Colleen and Satan is."
"Very true. I shall call this reporter and myself Beelzebub."
"Just one thing before you leave, Beelzebub, know I'm going to be reading this story. If it shall fail to please me, you'll end up like Abaddon. A demon that became a human living in prison." He shuddered and shook his head.
"I'll remember, Baphomet." He bowed and left.

The demons and the reporter shook hands. "I picked you because I consider you to be one of the most accurate news reporters on Earth. Don't make me live to regret that decision. While you might act like a Christian on Earth, we know where your heart really lies. Do we understand each other?" He looked at Beelzebub and bowed.
"I'm honored that you've chosen me. As long as you tell me the truth, I shall tell it as it's being told to me. I will, however, be changing my name. I can't have my family or friends knowing it was me." The demons nodded.
"What name will you be changing yourself to?"
"Why don't I call myself 'Judas.' I think that name will suit me, don't you think?" They smiled and nodded.
"Would you be doing us a last favor, just so we can trust you?"
"What would you need? My soul?" They laughed.
"No, accepting an invisible 666 on your hand will do. Only the demons will be able to see it. Should you not follow our story and make it your own, your soul will be ours to do whatever we want." He crossed his arms.
"What about my safety of guarantee?" The demon sighed.
"You wear it, Hell won't dare to hurt you." He nodded.
"Fair enough." He followed them to get the invisible 666.

At the table, he began to place a tape recorder and took out his laptop from his blue backpack. "Before we begin, can I have your names?"
"I'm Beelzebub." Said the demon on the right.
"I'm Legion." Said the demon on the left. The reporter nodded.
"And what is it that you wish to share with us this evening?" Beelzebub smiled and gave him an 8 by 10 photo of Satan sitting on his throne kissing the cheek of a naked woman sitting on his lap. She was looking towards the camera. Her blonde hair was long and her face appeared shiny and serious. Red and orange was showing in the background and he had a feeling it was part of what Hell looked like. "I can recognize this as Satan, but who is this beautiful woman sitting on his lap and why does her face seem like it's shining?" Legion smiled.
"Have you ever seen a pregnant woman? They get that face where their face is glowing from the hormones." He stared at the picture.
"She's pregnant?"
"Yes." He looked at the demons.
"Is she carrying his child?" They smiled.
"What do you think? You think the kiss is for a show? No, this is his bride, Colleen."

"Hell has its share of reporters that are curious about the kingdom of Hell. You can blame God for that. He didn't give out many details about us or our kingdom." Beelzebub nodded as he drank blood. "It's out of the goodness of our hearts that we're willing to share things about our kingdom and our people. There are only 3 you really need to know about."
"And who are the top 3?" Legion smiled.
"Satan, Colleen and Baphomet."
"Satan and Baphomet we know, but Colleen isn't familiar. Is she a demon?" They shook their heads.
"No." Beelzebub told him. "But she will play an important role in this kingdom."
"Which role will that be?"
"The Whore of Babylon."
"But isn't that supposed to be a place and not a specific person?"
"If God could allow Mary and Joseph to come together to raise Jesus, why would it be so strange that the demons should pick Satan and Colleen to come together to raise the Antichrist?"
"You didn't say the Antichrist?"
"Yes, we did. We mentioned Baphomet."
"What makes her so special?" Legion smiled.
"She once asked herself that question. Later, she found out the answer and when she did, she had no further questions. Once you know about this story, I have a feeling it will be the same for you. So, I'm afraid you're going to have to hear us out to get the answer."
"The Bible makes it sound like Satan feels that way about every human God creates." Beelzebub looked Legion.
"Can you believe this piece of shit? A human wants juicy stories of the kingdom of Hell and yet, they have the nerve to be here and talk about God." He looked Judas. "Down here, no demon thinks God's all that. However, there's some stories I can tell you about him that aren't in the Bible either." He looked straight ahead and crossed his arms. "I call this story, 'What Happens In Heaven.'"

God opened the door to a library and Colleen looked around in amazement. "This is so amazing! You've written all these stories for me?" He looked at her and nodded.
"I figured you would still love stories even after you died. I took the liberty to write stories I knew you'll be interested in." She picked up a book.
"If there's anyone that knows me, it's you. I can't wait to read all these books." She looked up at him. "Will I have time?" He nodded.
"The 666 era isn't going to happen for a few more years." She looked back at the book.
"Great. Time to start reading." He smiled.
"There's a bed over there." He pointed to a bed on the far-right side of the room that was surrounded by more books. "And the Angels will bring you food and drink whenever you need it. You're welcome to stay in this room for as long as you would like." She turned to him and bowed.
"Thank you." He nodded and left.

The books made her feel like she was really living in them. She rushed to him once she finished reading one of them. "God, the ending was amazing! My imagination and creatively would never have come up with that kind of story." He smiled.
"You're good, I would admit, but we both know I'm better." She nodded. "Well, you still have more books to read."
"And I can't wait. Are you sure you can handle my excitement?"
"Actually, I have one book that could calm you down. I would label this book the most dangerous book you can read." She looked at him in surprise.
"Why would you create such a book? You wanted Heaven to be perfect, holy and pure." He nodded.
"Which is why I'm not sure if you should read this or not."
"Well, you know me better than I do. If you don't think I should, then I shouldn't."
"Do you even want to know what it's about?" She shrugged.
"God, we've already failed with the Tree of Good and Evil. Why do you think time has changed people? It hasn't. You're not supposed to be tempting me to do bad things. That's Satan's job." He chuckled.
"Actually," He pulled out a book. "That's exactly what I've written. You've written many stories of you and Satan." He nodded as he held the book. "I've created what would really happen between the two of you if you had been on his side instead of mine." She looked at the book.
"God, you know that Satan can't have any relationship with a human. He's far too busy to focus on just a specific one. All the stories that I've written are fiction. They were never meant to be taken seriously." He nodded.
"But I know you would be curious to know what would really happen."
"I was hoping that temptation would stop on Earth. Not continue in Heaven."

"Some things never change, do they?" A voice spoke and they turned to see Satan with his arms crossed. "You have humans thinking only I do the tempting. But look at you, you're doing it as well." God sighed.
"You know as well as I do. Colleen wants to know what would have really happen between the two of you." He gave him a smirk. "And only I know the true story." The Devil turned to her.
"Aww, missing me already? I've gave you plenty of chances to be on my side, you rejected me each time." She frowned at him.
"I regret nothing." He nodded.
"If that's true my dear, why don't you take up God's offer. Prove to both of us that you really regret nothing." She looked at God.
"Are you going to go along with this?" He looked down slightly and at her.
"I won't deny. There are times when Satan makes good points. It's my fault. I've created him to be intelligent and very observant. Do you think you're up for the challenge?" He held the book out to her and she looked at it.
"God, I would admit that it was only lust towards Satan. Nothing less and nothing more." He nodded and gave her the book.
"Prove it. Read the book and if you still feel nothing for him, you'd prove both of us you speak the truth." She looked up at him.
"Has he," She pointed at the Devil. "Read this book?" God looked at him and saw him looking back at him. He shook his head.
"Unlike you," He pointed at him. "I don't lie to my children." He looked back at her. "No, however, one of his prophet demons who used to be a bookkeeper named Crekiael, who is now known as Baphomet, has." She looked at him in shock.
"You mean Baphomet is real?"
"I'm afraid so. Humans didn't come up with him on their own. The demons wanted to introduce him to the world. Only he has read the book and has kept most of it to himself." He looked at Satan. "Remember, I'm a God. Don't think I don't back up my work. He has the same book." He stared at him.
"He didn't tell me he has a book on this." He smiled.
"Looks like I'm not the only one that hides things from you. But mark my words, only she," He pointed at her. "Has the power to either make it happen or not. Now that she's no longer on Earth, you're not allowed to tempt her to give in. However, maybe you would be comfort with the fact that you can still read about it."
"You lie!" He pointed at him and God shook his head.
"Remember Satan, just because you lie, doesn't mean everyone else does. Since you're a liar, I have no choice but to be the opposite. If you don't believe my words, you're free to ask him yourself. After all, he's living in your kingdom and not mine, not anymore." He nodded.
"I just might as well do that." God looked at her.
"Colleen, go and read the book. Satan and I have other business to attend to." She took the book and bowed.
"As the Lord wishes."

"Satan, why have you really came? You couldn't have possibility knew that Colleen was going to read the most dangerous book that I've written related to mankind. So, why have you?" He smiled.
"You call that the most dangerous book? Are you sure it's not the book of Revelation?" God laughed.
"I know what my children can handle and what they can't. I know what they would wish to know and what they wouldn't. That book Colleen will begin to read, is not for most."
"Your humans think that the Antichrist is the most terrified person that will ever live to exist. However, the way you're speaking, it's almost like she's the most dangerous instead." God threw his head back and laughed.
"All of my children can either be the best and greatest or the worse and horrible. Each of them has a choice to make. It's not for us to make it for them." He nodded.
"I would agree."
"You still haven't explained why you're here. It can't be to talk about Colleen. You can't have humans knowing you're into necrophilia. Well, they would since you went after Moses' body." He put his finger on his chin as he thought. "I would hope you've gotten over that." He looked at him skeptical. "Or do you really like it that much not to give it up?" Satan frowned.
"He should have been mine. Look at what he did. He disobeyed you and killed a man. They both equal sins and you've promised that those that commit sins are mine." He nodded.
"I didn't go back on my promise. If you would remember, Moses did repent from his sins and I've forgave him."
"Well, you didn't tell me that. Had I known you had forgiven him, I would not have cared he was yours and not mine."
"Fair enough. Are you here to talk about Moses?" Satan chuckled.
"You think you're so funny."
"No, I'm genuinely asking. Why are you here? What do you want to talk about?"
"Now that Colleen is dead, what's the plan God? How does the Rapture happen?"

There was silence. "What did the book say?" He looked at Judas.
"That's another story for another time. But I will say this. God wasn't lying. Baphomet had another copy of the story and yes, Satan has read it. To quote the Dark Lord, 'There's no denying that Colleen has the gift of imagination and creativity, but we all know God's better.'"
"Can you tell me, at least, if Satan liked it?" The demons began to laugh and it took them a while to get serious again.
"If he didn't, none of us would have given a shit about her. Especially after she was dead." He nodded.

"Before Colleen died, Satan assigned us to see if we could find someone better than her. He's smart enough to know you always need a backup plan. No matter how you feel about plan A, you always should have a plan B and C. We had searched all over Earth trying to find someone better than her for him. We found a man named Joseph. He was better than her because he was 100% a virgin. He refused to have sex with anyone before he could give away his virginity to the Devil. Being raised in a Theistic Satanist household, he knew how to serve him and the rules. The last way he was better? He would only date Christians that were willing to convert to his religion. It wasn't an easy task for him. Not that he was ugly or anything. It was really because of the shock value. Can you imagine thinking that a person is sweet and nice? They tell you they are Christians and if you want to go further, you must covert to the opposite side? Not many people are like that. But we thought Satan would get a kick out of it. Oh, he did. He really did."
"So, after Colleen died, he took over?" The demons exchanged looks and smiled.
"You would think it was that easy. All of us should have saw what was obvious. I guess we were to focus on the mission that we ignored it."
"Which was?" Beelzebub sat down his glass and shook his head.
"How good Colleen was."
"How good was she?" They looked at him.

"Here's a preview that we can show you." Beelzebub took out his cellphone and passed it to Judas. "This is one of her recordings of her masturbating over Satan." He stared at the demons. "Don't tell me you don't like to watch porn. We know you do. So, enjoy watching her please herself with the thoughts of the dark lord and majesty." He smiled and picked up his brown beer mug full of blood to drink. Judas saw Colleen moaning and masturbating. He turned up the volume louder so he could listen to the things she was saying.

"Think of me as a one of God's paintings, my dear Satan and your body has the power to destroy it. Destroy it by entering your dick into my tight pussy. Destroy it by licking me and kissing me everywhere. Let your scent be on my body so that all would know that I'm yours. Touch me as you know God would never allow you to touch a painting of his. Don't be satisfied with destroying his painting in the front. Destroy it in the back as well. Turn me over and pound both my pussy and ass to your delight. Lick me and touch me to mark your territory unto my body. Once you do, do you think God would want it back? It would come to him so dirty he would just throw me into your kingdom and your nose will remember my scent. You'll bring me back to you to enjoy what you've done. Come to me my dark one, let us work to make me yours."

He stared at the phone and looked at them. "Why are you showing me this?" Legion took the phone and gave it back to Beelzebub.
"What? You didn't enjoy it?" He shook his head.
"It's not that, it's just that I've never heard anyone talk like that."
"How does it make you feel?" He shuddered.
"Dirty." They laughed.

"Satan, why have you brought me here?" He looked at her.
"Because I have good news and I have bad. Which one do you want first?" She thought for a minute.
"The good." He nodded.
"I've found someone better than you." She nodded impressed.
"And the bad?"
"I've found someone better than you, so we're over."
"Before I leave with my broken heart, can I meet this person that you claim is better than I?" She put her hands to her heart.
"I suppose there's nothing wrong with introducing the two of you. Should have remembered, just because time changes, doesn't mean humans do. Joseph, would you come out and show yourself?" A man with curly brown hair and brown eyes with a black business suit came out. He bowed before him.
"Hail Satan! What can I do for you?" He smiled, put his hand on his shoulder and looked at her.
"I want you to meet Colleen Passion. This woman is very good. But you're better than her. She wanted to meet you." He looked down and up at her.
"You can't blame him; he wants the best." She nodded and approached him.
"May I offer you words of advice?" He scoffed.
"Why would I want advice from someone I'm better than?"
"If you were picked by the demons as I have been, I know what you're thinking. You could use a laugh at my expense. If not a laugh, a mock then." He nodded impressed.
"What's your advice, my dear girl?" She held out her hand.
"First, may I shake the hand of the one that the demons have found better than I?" He nodded and shook her hand. She squeezed it hard.
"You better fucking treat Satan nothing less than a king because if you don't, he'll come after me. If he won't hurt you, I will." She released his hand and he stared at her in shock. "Do we understand each other?" She gave him a smile.
"I would never think you were that fucking strong!" She shrugged and flexed for him.
"I had no choice. When a woman has no one to depend on, what do you expect?" He shook his head. "I'm sure you can't wait to have a life with him, so I'll be going." She looked at Satan and touched his face. "I do hope he makes you happier than I ever did. Take it from someone who has a lot of regrets, you don't want to live with any." He watched as she left.
"Who the fuck was that chick?" Joseph asked and he turned to look at him.
"Your job is to focus on me, so forget that bitch! What should be your question, my dear boy?"
"Is there anything you need?" He smiled.
"That's more like it."

"But no matter how hard Satan or Joseph tried, Colleen was much stronger than he was. We should have taken that into consideration, but we didn't."
"Stronger, how?" Legion smiled.

"What plans do you have that will benefit me and this kingdom?" Joseph and Satan were in a meeting room and sitting on a small brown rectangle table. He looked surprised.
"You're the King of Hell and the Prince of this World, the ideas I have won't be better than yours or the demons." The Devil smiled as he held a cup full of blood in his hands.
"There's no doubt that the demons and I can come up with the best ideas, however, Colleen also came up with a few ideas of her own. You need to be better than she is. So, start telling me your ideas." He picked up his blood cup and was ready to drink when he looked up from Hell. Joseph couldn't hear what he did and looked at him puzzled as he watched his face turn to annoyance. He slammed the cup down and looked at him. "Get up and follow me!"

They entered Colleen's bedroom. "Look at that! See why she was my best pick? Listen!" Joseph listened to what she was masturbating to.
"Satan, your dick compares to no other. How I would just die if your lips aren't on mine! I rather die than to not have you touch me!" He stared at her in shock and his mouth dropped open.
"What the fuck? A woman can talk like that?" Satan smacked him in the head. "Interesting that's what pisses you off the most. When what should have pissed you off is that she knows we're over and yet, she continues this shit! Colleen, shut your mouth and shut it now!" She turned to look at him and continued to stroke her pussy. "You're dumb, Satan and I will tell you why." More anguish appeared on his face. "You should have known by now that humans like forbidden fruit. You!" She pointed with her free hand. "Decided to ban me from your presence so you can make room for him!" She pointed at Joseph. "You just make me want you more. Fool! You should have known that's Forbidden Fruit 101!" He nodded and turned her over to spank her.
"You dare to talk to me like that?" She shrugged.
"Why should I care what you do to me? You ended things with us and not I with you!" He looked at Joseph.
"New challenge. If you can make me tune out her voice, you will prove to both of us that you're better than she is. If you can't, well, looks like Colleen will win." She turned over to look at him.
"Look at you! That's what you get for having the best. You don't get to enjoy your second best." He smacked her.
"Will you stop being a smart aleck?"
"Why? You can't handle the truth? Is that why you like lies better?" He pinned her on the bed.
"If you don't stop, I will fuck this tight pussy. Make no mistake, my dick will fuck you so hard, you'll be bleeding." She tried to be set free but his hands were too strong for her. She closed her eyes and calmed down.
"Alright, I apologize. Your rebellion should be with him and not with me. God wouldn't frown if you're with a human female, he would be more disappointed if you were with a human male. After all, is not homosexually against the Bible?" He shook his head and looked at Joseph.
"When are you going to start working? Are you not the best?" She looked at him and smiled.

"Have you ever tried with a man before? It doesn't matter if you have or not, I promise you one thing and one thing only. Once you have Satan, you never would want anyone else. If you don't believe me, why do you think I spend so much time masturbating over him? Having varies of fantasies about him? For kicks?" She shook her head. "No. I know how good he is. Once you have him, all you want is more and not less." She got into Satan's face. "Isn't that right, sweetie? You're so good that humans would do anything to have your dick inside of them?" He closed his eyes.
"Joseph! The demons told me your mouth was better than hers! So, start talking!" He looked at him.
"But Satan, you know she speaks the truth, no one is better than you at sex." He began to crawl on the bed. "Why is she allowed to have you and not me." He saw her looking at Satan with lust. "How can I object to something that's the truth?"
"Surely, you can find a better truth than this woman ever could!" Satan looked at her and she licked her lips.
"Don't tell me you don't miss me. You know you do. You know you love humans that treat you like a god. Humans that do nothing but love, worship and praise you. Come on, just one kiss?" He looked at him.
"Well? Do you not have a stronger truth for me?" She looked at him and chuckled.
"If he was so much better than I was, he would have passed the test that I'm giving him. Look at him!" She used her head to point at him. "He can't even say anything!" Joseph looked at her with anguish.
"I think we should kill her as that will solve the issue!" She rolled her eyes.
"How tropical. You would think someone that's smarter would suggest something that's not violence. People only use violence because they have nothing else!" Joseph smacked her and Satan looked at him.
"Your job isn't to prove that she's right, your job is to prove that she's wrong. You can't even do that!" Satan stood up. "Unfortunately, you're no longer better than she is. Get out of my face and good riddance!" He snapped his fingers and he disappeared.

The Devil interrupted Colleen. "Can I tell you my idea of this part?" She looked at him.
"We both agreed that we would work together on the story. I would love to have your input." She gave him a half smile. He studied her facial expression.
"If you're mocking me, I can't tell." He crossed his arms. She shook her head and put her hand on his arm.
"No, I'm being serious. I'm a good storyteller, but I'm sure you're better." He looked at her skeptical. "Come on, you know how to tell the difference between someone being genuine and someone being full of shit. You know which one I am."

"Colleen, I have some good news and some bad, which do you want first?"
"The good." He nodded.
"You're free from me." She looked at him puzzled. "Because the bad news? I want us to break up." She stared at him in shock.
"You're breaking up with me? Before you do that, give me a chance to change. To show you that I can be better. Don't do this to me." She pointed a finger at him and he put his hands on her upper arms.
"We both know that you will die sometime and I will live on. So, I've found someone better and younger than you." She looked away.
"If you really had loved me, you wouldn't care if I'm old or young!"
"Have you forgotten the gift that I've gave you? I healed you and that should help you to move on." She nodded.
"You think I'll find someone better than you?" He looked down and sighed.
"You won't. At least, you can take with you that you had a chance that not many have. The chance to be in a relationship with me."
"If you really love me, would you do me a last favor?"
"Of course." He released his hands.
"If I shall go to Hell after I die, I prefer we not to see each other. It would hurt me too much." He nodded.
"That's understandable. I'll have the demons take care of you and you know they'll do a good job."
"Tell me one last thing before I leave?" He sighed.
"Colleen, you really don't need to drag this out."
"Can you blame me? I want to cherish one last time with you."
"Very well. What's the last thing you want me to tell you?"
"How do I live without you?"
"You've done a good job before we dated and now is no different." She shook her head and crossed her arms. "I see, you're not satisfied with my answer."
"Satan can do better." He nodded.
"You know that Baphomet had gave you the gift of writing? Use that to write sad songs about us breaking up. I'm sure one of his sad songs will give you an award. Consider that as a comfort gift. Every time you see that award, you'll see that some good things came from bad."
"So, you think an award can replace you?" He smiled.
"Colleen, you can't convince me to change my mind. I'm sorry, we're done. Now please leave."
"I'll leave you with one last word of my own. You'll never find anyone who will love you more than me!" She walked away and he watched her.

To work through her depression and sadness, she began to write sad songs. One song that came to her was one that was called, 'God Took My Love Away.' She would look at the pictures that she had on her phone of her with Satan. Seeing those pictures made her angry and she used her angrier to write more lyrics. While she knew it was his decision and his choice to break up with her, she still blamed God. After all, he had made her body to be made to die. If he had never made her body die, maybe Satan would still be with her. For the first time ever, she wished she could live forever. Once the lyrics were written, she made up the music. She recorded herself singing along with playing the guitar and the piano. When the audience saw her singing, they could see the sadness and angrier in her voice. She never imagined that her music video would go viral, but it did. While she knew Satan wasn't a liar as the Bible had portrayed him to be, she was still surprised when the song was nominated for the best new song of the year.

That night as she looked at the red carpet, she never imagined she would be walking on it. She looked out to see the paparazzi and people cheering her on. She finally realized how grateful it was to have people help celebrities with the red carpet because she had no idea what she was supposed to do. A person guided her to a female reporter. "Colleen, you've been nominated for one of the best new songwriters, how do you feel?" She didn't want to admit she felt embarrassed.
"It's nice to have the validation that I'm a good writer. Sometimes, I have my doubts." She nodded.
"Can you tell the fans why you wrote this song? Who this song was for?" She looked down and looked up at her.
"I can understand why fans like this song. They can relate to it. Love can give you both the best and worse feelings in the world. Take my relationship with Satan, for example. Dating him was like winning the lottery and losing him was like being arrested for doing something that I didn't do."
"To clarify, you wrote this for him?"
"Don't all musicians say to write what you know, and in this case, what you feel?" She nodded. "And writing about a relationship isn't new."
"Are you feeling better now about the breakup?"
"One of the things I had admired about Satan was how he valued honesty. Which I'm sure people would label him a hypocrite for. If only they knew how much the Bible got wrong. Since that's one of the things I'd admire about him, I will continue to be honest. There are times I miss him and times that I wish we were still together, I'm sure any human can relate to me. I didn't date him for attention which is why it hurts me so much that he ended things with us."
"Have the two of you had any recent contact?" She shook her head.
"Like I've said, I really did love him and since that love is still inside of me, I've respected his wishes. I'm trying to move on the best I can."
"If he's watching right now, what would you say to him?" She smiled.
"I would thank him for teaching me about love. I would thank him for being in a relationship and breaking up with me. Because he taught me how strong I am. Can you imagine enduring on after you had one of the best relationships in life? Especially when you know no one can compare?" The reporter nodded. "I would thank him for breaking up with me so I can write songs again and to be surprised with being nominated. But most of all? I hope he's happy. That's all I want for him even if it means to be happy without me."
"I wish you the best. I'm sure you're going to have a lot of people lined up ready to date you soon." Colleen laughed.
"I'm Satan's throw away, who would want me?"
"You might be surprised." She shrugged.
"Even if you're right, I'm just not ready." She nodded.
"Do the world a favor. When you're ready let us know." She smiled. "In the meantime, I hope you win."
"I dunno, I'm up against some of the best."
"Satan should let you win, it's the least he could do for you. It would make him look even better." She laughed.
"Nah, I want to win honesty."
"Thank you for your time, Colleen." She nodded and walked away.

Satan was watching the interview with his young partner, Joseph. When he saw the Devil looking serious and quiet, he turned off the television. He was afraid he was getting second thoughts and would regret his decision in picking him over her. "Satan, you're a god of invention." He slowly looked at him. "You can surely come up with a way that would prevent me from dying so you won't have to lose me." He sat up and clasp his hands together. He could tell he was in deep thought.
"I picked you over her because you're younger. But even you will die someday." He looked at the television. "She was a great girlfriend and she's proving to be a great ex-girlfriend." He turned to look at him. "You said that I'm god, correct?" Joseph nodded and he nodded as well. "I think you could be better than her. Do you agree?"
"Of course, Master Satan, I'm younger and know the world more than she does." He smiled.
"Yes, she's older than you and lived in the previous generation. But that didn't stop her from being wonderful. How confidence are you that you're better?" He put his hand on his head on the couch as he looked at him with full attention.
"100%." He smiled.
"I would agree. You're a mixture of me and Colleen. If I were to test you, do you think you'll pass?" He laughed.
"Satan, if you would remember, the moment you broke up with her, she didn't really fight to keep you. She just let you break up with her and move on." He nodded.
"You see that as giving up easy, while I see that as a sign of respect. I want to see what you would have done differently." He looked at him with fear.
"What are you saying?"
"If you're 100% better than she is, you know exactly what I'm saying." He stood up and looked at him.
"Do you know how many people would die to date me? And yet, I picked you all over them!" He nodded.
"Since the Bible portrays me as prideful, humans believe that I would be impressed by pride." He stood up. "Do you know how many would love to date me and yet I choose you above all?"
"But now you're breaking up with me. It doesn't make sense!" He smiled.
"Did it ever occur to you that perhaps I broke up with her to test her? Maybe I wanted to see what kind of ex she would have made. Now I'm doing the same thing to you. I'm the King of Hell and the Prince of this world. To find the best, they must go through varies of tests. I want to make sure that I've picked the right one." He crossed his arms. "Right now, you have the opportunity to prove to me why you're the best. I suggest you use this opportunity wisely."

"Since you love to make deals with humans, how about we make a deal?" He raised his eyebrows.
"And what's your deal?" He smiled.
"How long will it take for you to be proven that I'm the best?" He shook his head.
"A magician would never reveal his secrets. I'm not telling you that." He nodded.
"I think a year would satisfy you. How about you remain single for one year and watch me be better than her. After I'm proven to be the best, we get back together."
"The problem with that son, is that you don't get to call the shots, I do. It's not up to you to decide how long you should go through this trial. No deal."
"Since you're putting me through the same trial as Colleen, why not you give me the same gifts you gave her? Give me the ability to write music and I'll make a better sad song than she did about our breakup?" He smiled, shook his head and sat back on the couch. He drank blood.
"The problem with that is I'm not the one who gives out those gifts. Baphomet is the one that does. He saw something special in Colleen which is why she was given the ability. But I do have a question. Are you truly out for my gifts and not because you really love me?" He looked around for a vase and threw it at him. It missed him by inches.
"Even if you wanted to get back together with her, you wouldn't solve the problem. She will still die someday. She could die quicker and sooner than I would!" He looked down and shook his head. After a while, the Devil finally got up and looked at him. "I'm sorry. You're right and I'm wrong." Joseph looked at him in surprise. "I can see you really love me. Do you mind if I test your love a last time?"
"Of course. You know my loyalty towards you is strong." He nodded.

Demons came into the room. "Allow my demons to give you 666 as a way to mark that you're mine."
"Oh, Satan, it would be an honor for you to mark me." He smiled as he rolled up his sleeves and looked at the demon who had the tattoo machine gun. "Whenever you're ready." The demon put 666 on his upper shoulder. Satan came over to inspect the work and nodded at the demons.
"Good job." The tattoo machine gun left but the demons stayed. "You're really stupid, you know that right?" Joseph looked at him in confusion.
"No, I'm not." He nodded.
"Yes, you are and I'll tell you why. Satan would never apologize. Ever. That could have been your first clue that something isn't right. Your second mistake? Getting the 666 on your upper shoulder because that would allow me to do whatever I wanted with your body and soul as you're mine. Since you've failed to prove that you're better than Colleen, I don't see any reason for you to live."
"But you've allowed her to live!"
"I can see into your future, my dear boy. I can see that you will talk shit about me to the press and I can't have that. Since I'm in a generous mood, why don't I allow you to pick how you will die?"
"Are you serious?"
"You have 5 seconds and if you don't pick, I'll pick for you." He pointed a finger at him.
"You wouldn't dare." He nodded.
"Very well." He touched him and he got on fire. Screams were being heard and his body slowly turned to ashes. He looked at the demons. "Don't take good care of him."
"But he's right. I have no solution for how to get back to my relationship with Colleen." The demons looked at him in surprise.
"Satan, we've been thinking about a solution that you might like." He looked at them in surprise.
"You have?" They nodded as he sat back on the couch and put his hands together.
"We could see that he was in no match for her. We had a feeling you would want to take her back. Upon discussion with the other demons, they had a solution."
"What solution have you came up with?"
"You have the power to time travel. Why don't you use that time travel to go back to the Garden of Eden and get a fruit off the Tree of Life. Once you do, not only will Colleen live forever to be with you, but younger forever as well." The Devil nodded as he looked straight ahead.
"If God doesn't stop me that is."
"We can come with you and help you win." He looked at him and smiled.
"Let's go."

"Was he successful in his mission?" Judas asked and the demons smiled.
"Yes." Legion answered. "Being the King of Hell and the Prince of the world has its benefits."
"God actually allowed him to enter the Garden of Eden again and get the fruit?" Beelzebub looked at him.
"All we had to tell God was that if the Holy Spirit could choose Jesus' parents, why couldn't the Antichrist choose his mother? He had already chosen Colleen and he wasn't going to change his mind." He drank blood and Judas looked at him.
"What blood are you drinking? Yours?" The demons looked at each other and began to laugh.
"No, we're drinking the blood of dead Christians. Our faithful and loyal followers gave these to us as sacrifices. We enjoy them very much." He stared at the brown beer mugs and swallowed nervously. "Don't worry, we have no use for Christians that aren't really on God's side. We're talking about the ones that are very much strong in their faith."

The demons put a book in front of him and he picked it up to study it. The name of the book was "Dark Tales: Meet the Whore of Babylon.' It had Satan looking at Colleen and standing behind her with both hands around her stomach. She was looking at the camera with her right hand over his right cheek and her left arm over his left arm. You could see she had on a short white crop top and blue short shorts. The background had fire flames shaped as a heart and the rest was black. He looked at the 2 names on it. "I remember this book. It started out good and then it became crap." The demons nodded.
"It taught us that reporters aren't what they used to be. Cautious is needed." He nodded.
"You mean these 2 men were actually interviewing you?" They shook their heads.
"No, they were actually interviewing Colleen and Satan."
"Why did it become crap?" They shook their heads.
"Because they were doing what they know best. Putting their own ideas and words into it. If they had just followed Colleen and Satan correctly, it wouldn't have been crap."
"What happened to them?"
"What the fuck do you think happened? Were they ever seen or heard from again?" He swallowed nervously and they nodded. "You're right to think it won't happen to you. If you don't publish our interview the way we want it, you'll be next. Since we're in a generous mood, we'll share with you how it was supposed to go."

Colleen could see the large green tree in the middle of the yard. It was a nice day outside. "Why did you want to interview me? Why not him?" She asked the 2 reporters that were sitting at a small desk that had their tape recorders out along with notepads and pens.
"Who said we didn't? We got his side as well." One of them answered. "Who wouldn't want to interview one of the most powerful women in the world?" She finally looked at them puzzled.
"What makes you think I'm the most powerful?" One of them grinned as he was holding a pen in his hands.
"Even Satan couldn't deny his feelings towards you. And after hearing his story, not surprising why." She shrugged.
"Would you believe it was an accident and totally unintentional?" The reporters exchanged looks and looked back at her.
"Rather it was or not, it doesn't change the story of you two, does it?" She finally took a seat in the middle of the room.
"I suppose not."

One of them looked at his notes. "Satan says the first time he saw you, you looked at him in a way no human ever had." She looked down and shook her head.
"Can't believe he remembered."
"Would you say that his memory is accurate?" She looked up at the 2 reporters.
"It must have sounded strange in thinking a teenager could look at him without fear and instead look at him as something beautiful and rare like the unicorns." They nodded.
"Why did you?" She stood up and put her hands behind the chair to look at them.
"Can you imagine the first time you ever saw Satan and when you did, he didn't have any horns or tail to give away who he was?" They nodded.
"We can't fault you for feeling comfortable around him, but we wouldn't have dreamed of looking at him like he was the most beautiful thing one has ever saw." She started to laugh.
"You must not have read your Bible. They said that he was the most beautiful Angel that ever lived."
"Did he appear to you as an Angel?"
"He will call me out if I lie. No, he didn't. But that didn't mean he wasn't beautiful." One of them looked down and shook his head.
"So, what you're telling us is the first time you ever saw him, it was love at first sight?" She went to the window again to look out at the tree.
"It probably was."
"Probably?" She looked back at the one who asked.
"Probably because what teenager would want to confess that she started having feelings for the Devil? That's the fastest way to get locked up in a mental asylum."
"Fair. After he appeared to you, did your feelings for him go away?" She sat back down at the chair again.
"Life got in the way and I didn't think about him anymore."

One of them took the recorder and put it in the middle of the table. "You might want to hear Satan's side. He talks about that. Rather you thought about him after that first encounter or not, he didn't forget about you." She smiled.
"I wouldn't doubt his words."
"Are you curious to see his side of you?"
"I'm a sucker for stories. I'm sure his is better than mine." He pressed play.

"The first time I ever saw Colleen?" She looked at the recorder and recognized his voice. "Every story starts with the first. Humans have always been fascinating creatures. I'll tell you why. They're different from each other. No two humans are the same."
"What was it about her that stood out?" She recognized one of the reporter's voices.
"She might not have intentionally wanted my attention or all of Hell's attention, but she definitely got it. It was the demons that first introduced me to her. I won't lie. The demons like to be entertained and they get it by watching and listening to the humans. Colleen was no different. She was their entertainment."
"What attract you to her?"
"Most people think that I know nothing about being human because I'm not one. What they fail to realize is that I've been studying them longer than they can imagine. One thing that attracts me to all humans? Since they need to learn things, they become very native about certain things until they know more. I wouldn't say that I was attracted to her. It was mostly out of curiously. How would she respond to me if I had showed up? I have to admit, I wasn't thinking that she would look at me the way she did."
"How did she look at you?"
"Let me just tell you how it made me feel. She made me feel like I could be myself and she wouldn't care. Her mind was exploring the possibilities of what it would be like if we were together."
"Together as?"
"Together as a couple. I know, not what you were expecting to hear. Knowing how young she was, I didn't want to encourage her to act on those feelings. I thought it would be best for both of us if I left."

"During your time away from her, did you think about her?" He roared and laughed. "How could I not? The demons wouldn't shut up about her. They kept going on and on about her life. I must confess. I think the demons were in love with her before I was. Again, I know not the answer you were expecting to hear. But it's the truth. It does appear that the demons were rooting for us to be together."
"Would that have changed how you felt about her if they were?"
"Demons do have this twisted fantasy that they can set me up with a human. They know humans as well as I do. If they want to set me up with one, it wouldn't be with a wrong one."
"How many have they set you up with?"
"A few."
"But you're grateful they had you set up with Colleen, aren't you?"
"What gave that away?"
"The sound of your voice. You talk different when you say her name."
"Didn't think you would pick up on that."
"I'm a reporter, we know how to do pick up on things like that."
"You must be a good reporter to have that skill."
"You never thought you were going to meet a human that would change the rest of your life, did you?"
"You're enjoying this, aren't you?" The reporter appeared to sound innocent.
"Enjoying what?"
"Knowing that a human like her, could do something to me. Make me feel like something I've never felt before."
"Reporters like to get the scoop, no matter the cost." He roared and laughed.
"You're like Colleen, she likes to do her research until she gets what she came for. But she didn't want to be a reporter. She wanted to be a writer."
"And you encourage her?"
"No. I didn't have to. The schools did that for her."

"Colleen says that life got in the way and the two of you became distant. If she was truly special, why didn't you stay? Why did you leave?" There was a silent.
"Are you going to be sharing this with her?"
"Well, we want to get both sides. We're interviewing her as we're interviewing you. We could make a deal. If we choose to share this with Colleen, we'll share her story with you."
"Sound fair. What was the question again?"
"Did you enjoy staying away from her?"
"That's not a good question. A good question would be this. Did I miss her knowing that I was around?"
"Okay, did you miss her knowing you weren't around?"
"Yes." Colleen was stunned and looked at the reporters. They smiled and shook their heads.
"Why?"
"Like I've said, I wanted to know what kind of relationship we could have had."
"By relationship, you mean?"
"Could we be friends or would we be enemies? I was very impatient to learn which one we would be."
"So, you had no romantic feelings towards her?"
"No. My feelings were just platonic."
"Only in the beginning?" The reporter stopped the recorder and looked at her.

"Why did you stop?" He grinned.
"If you want to know if he agreed, he did." She looked at him surprised. "Now, you've heard his beginning. We want to hear yours. After you didn't see him for a while, when did you next see him?" She sighed.
"I was 20."
"What do you think changed?"
"I dunno. I'm sure he has that part."
"We'll share with you in a minute. How did you feel when he showed up?"
"Surprised. He shows up and then disappears for years. I was so sure he had forgotten all about me."
"And he didn't. How did that make you feel?"
"Flattered. I thought I'm forgettable."
"What happened when he showed up?"
"He said he wanted to talk."
"Did you have any idea what he wanted to talk about?" She shook her head. "But you agreed to talk anyway?" She nodded.
"Who wouldn't have been curious to see what the Devil wanted to talk to you about?"
"Good point. What did he want to talk about?" She looked down and bit her lip.
"He wanted to talk about us."
"Let me guess, he asked if you two could be friends?" She shook her head and he was surprised. "Then, what did the two of you talk about?" She looked away and there was a moment of silent before she finally looked at him.
"He said that it wasn't a good idea for me to have feelings for him and nothing was going to change that."
"So, he assumed you had feelings for him." She nodded. "And did you?"
"Could you blame him for thinking that? I was intrigued to talk to him and when he walked into the room, I greeted him like a long-lost friend." Her eyes looked far away. "There was again no fear and I wasn't in a hurry for him to leave." The reporters exchanged looks and looked back at her. "I probably wasn't hiding my feelings well."
"So, he didn't think it was a good idea for both of you to be together but to be friends. How did you feel about that?" She shook her head and looked at them.
"No one asked Eve, 'How did you feel when you gave in and disobeyed God?' I know how she feels. Because even after he told me that it wasn't a good idea, I started to really want to be in a romantic relationship with him." They looked at her surprised.
"Exactly how did the conversation go?" She sighed.

"Colleen, it's so nice to see you again." She looked at him in surprise.
"You didn't bother to write or call and you expect me to believe you're really happy about seeing me again?" He looked down, closed his eyes and put his hands on his hips.
"I apologize for that. I didn't realize you would be so disappointed that I haven't been around." She crossed her arms and shook her head.
"I'm not disappointed. Just pointing out that you're lying. Next time you want me to be friendly, try being honest!" He sighed and acted like he was surrendering.
"Alright. I apologize. If I had knew you wanted to see me more, I would have come around more often." She nodded.
"I'm sure." She looked at the window.
"You don't believe me?" She shook her head.
"You brag about how well you know humans. Yet, you didn't even know how I was feeling?" He sighed.
"Colleen, what do you want from me? I've already apologized. Tell me what you want and I'll do it." He crossed his arms as he looked at her.
"Now that you're here, I hope you're planning on staying, if not, there's no reason for us to talk." He shook his head.

"Can we start again? Colleen, it has been a long time since I've seen you. I apologize and would like to make it up to you by us having a little chat." She looked at him skeptical.
"Are you planning on staying this time, Satan?" She pointed at him.
"That depends entirely on you." She looked at him in surprise.
"Me? What do you mean?" He gestured towards a small table with 2 chairs.
"If you want to know more, sit with me at the table so we can have our chat." She sighed and followed him to the table. He pulled out the chair for her and pulled her close to the table. He took the other chair. "I know you haven't been reading the Bible much. I'm not here to condemn you for it. However, if you would investigate the Bible, you would see it's forbidden for us to have any kind of relationship but friendship. If you would agree to just be friends with me, I'll be more than happy to stay in your life."
"Are you telling me that if I have more than friendship feelings for you, you will leave?" He nodded.
"I know the Bible calls me a rebel and thinks I'm all about sins. I really don't care what humans do. I only care when it's concerning me. I can't have a human being in love with me. This wouldn't be fair to you or to anyone else."
"So, kissing you is out?" He looked at her questioning.
"Are you being sarcastic or are you being serious? I can't tell." She threw her hands up in the air.
"See that's what happens when you leave. You forget all about me. But I know all about you!" He nodded.
"Do you? Let's test that." He put his hands behind his back and looked at her. "What color are my hands and fingernails?"
"That's easy! They are both red!" He shook his head and put them back on the table.
"Wrong. They are red with black fingernails." He showed them to her and she took them to study them.
"If you wanted me to be less attractive towards you, you would have made sure your hands didn't look so sexy." He stared at her and put his hands off the table.
"If you know me as well as you thought you do, you would have known how serious I am when I talk. If I say that there's nothing more that can happen between us but friendship, I mean it!"
"Alright, so having the best sex I will ever have in my life is out. What else is new?"
"You really don't want me to stay, do you?" He looked at her disappointed.
"I'm sorry. Forgive me. I hear you; we can only be friends and nothing more. Anything else?"
"No, I apologize." He took her hands into his. "If you want my attention, all you have to do is say you want it and I'll give it to you. I would love to be able to read your mind and your thoughts, but unfortunately, I don't have that power. I won't go away again as long as you behave yourself." She nodded.
"You stay in my life and I'll keep the end of my bargain and not have us be anything more than friends." She held out her hand. "Do we have a deal?" He smiled, nodded and shook her hand.
"I would love to do nothing more than to stay in your life and be your friend."

"But that didn't happen, did it?" One of the reporters ask. "You had developed stronger feelings for him." She shook her head.
"How could he have thought we could be friends and I would continue to have platonic feelings towards him?"
"What made you fell for him?" She was quiet and looked at the recorder.
"Did he tell you that's how our conversation went?" They exchanged looks and looked back at her.
"Yes. Your words and his words match, however he told me how it made him feel. We would play that for you, if you would tell us first. What was it specifically that made you fell for him?" She laid back into her chair and looked down in front of her with crossed arms.
"While we're here to talk about a romantic relationship that happened between a human and Satan, I've never stopped being a human. So don't expect answers that will be out there." They chuckled.
"You're not a rock star or someone with fame, wealth or power. So, if these didn't attract you to him, what else was there? Did he promise you something and deliver it? Did he do a miracle and you just had to fall in love with him? How does an ordinary person like you fall for someone that most people would consider bad news?" She started laughing.
"Honey, you act like this is the first time you're hearing a story like this. It's not. Some women like bad boys. How am I any different?"
"Did his wildlife style give you an adventure you wanted to keep going? Your life was so boring that he was the first to give you a sense of excitement?"
"It would have been a better answer if a lie is what you're looking for." He shook his head.
"No, we want the truth. If it wasn't his wildlife, then what was it?"
"I wonder if you would believe me."
"Try us." She smiled.

"Colleen, I'm so happy that you've decided to allow me to introduce you to my world. You would find Hell isn't that scary as the Bible has made it out to be." He was holding her hand as they entered Hell. "All the demons are excited to meet you."
"You won't allow them to do anything bad to me, will you?" He shook his head.
"They don't want to. They want you to feel welcomed." They finally entered Hell and she followed him to his throne. In the middle of their walk, a woman came up to him and began to make out with him.
"Satan, at last you're home. I've missed you." Colleen could feel jealously rising inside of her. The woman looked at her. "Who is this?" He took the woman's hand.
"Now, you need to be nice to my friend. This is Colleen Passion. Colleen, meet one of my wives, Jezebel." They shook hands and politely gave each other a fake smile.
"Charmed. Any friend of Satan is a friend of mine." She noticed on Hell's walls were pictures of him with various of his spouses. When she saw that, they began to fall off the walls. While she was surprised, she was pleased.
"What the fuck? How are these pictures falling off the walls? This has never happened! Demons pick this shit up and put them back in their places, now!" No matter how hard they tried, the pictures wouldn't stay. "Fine, I give up. They can stay down for all I care. This is ridiculous."

He stormed to his throne with Colleen following closely behind. She crossed her arms and looked at him angry. "I thought you said that you don't have any relationships with humans but friendship?"
"My apologies, Colleen. I should have been more specific. I can't have any relationship but friendship with living humans. The ones who are in Hell, it's all fair game." She saw men and women that were beautiful gathered around him. "You can't fault me for wanting the most beautiful and handsome, can you?" He touched one of them and she could feel more jealously rising inside of her and she knew she had to control herself. Televisions began to crack and his throne began to shake. He looked confused. "What the fuck? Hell has never had an earthquake! Maybe God is expanding my kingdom." He looked at the various of humans that were surrounding his throne. "I'm hungry, which one of you want to feed me?" She watched as they came to feed him food and flirt with him. Suddenly, all of them passed out. He stood up and looked at them confused. When he looked up, he saw Colleen looking at him as a mixture of jealously and pissed. It finally dawned to him, all the chaos that was happening in Hell was because of her.

"So, she had powers?" Judas asked stunned and the demons nodded.
"None of us knew that when she gets jealous or she gets angry: She takes it out on Hell, the lost souls and even Satan, himself." The demons shook their heads. "Which is why we said, the world thinks the Antichrist is dangerous. They don't know how bad the Whore of Babylon is."
"What happened next? Surely, Satan wouldn't let her get away with that!" They nodded.
"The world wasn't lying when they said he would make one of a hell of a lawyer. Can you figure out why I brought that up?"
"He took her to court?"
"Good to see you're smarter than you look." Beelzebub said as he drank blood.

Colleen was standing in an abandoned parking garage. She was looking outside where she saw a full moon and the stars. "You think you can run from me after that fucking stunt you pulled?" She was startled by the anguish voice that was speaking and turned around to see Satan. She looked down.
"You're blaming me for what happened in Hell? You said it yourself, maybe it was God expanding your kingdom."
"Cut that crap! I've told you that there can never be anything between us but friendship and you agreed! Yet, when I introduced you to Hell, you became angry and jealous." He shook his head. "You can't even follow a simple fucking rule?" She looked away and went back to stargazing. "The demons picked you because they thought you were smart. But you're proving them wrong by not responding to my question!" He approached her and forced her to look at him. "How could you not be able to follow a fucking simple rule? Answer me!" She sighed.
"I really wish you would have talked for yourself instead of allowing humans to make their own interpretations. We're not the brightest of the stars." He looked at her confused.
"What the hell are you talking about?"
"The Bible says that Satan is rebellious. So, humans have this belief that you would be flattered if we followed your footsteps. We became rebellious as well and you would love us the same." He shook his head.
"You call having your feelings change for me fucking rebellious? Are you high?"
"It wasn't my fault!"
"Let me guess, you're going to blame me for this? Are you fucking insane? You've ruined my kingdom with your jealousy and with your angrier. If you've just accepted my word, you wouldn't be feeling this way!"
"If you're so annoyed with me for having these feelings for you, why don't you change? Make yourself less attractive. Beat the shit out of me, kill me, make me hate you!" She took his finger and put it on her stomach. "Go on."
"Like you've recently stated my darling, people that use violence is because they don't have anything else. So, you're saying that I can do nothing about your feelings but to use violence?" He took his finger off her stomach. "Fuck you! I'm not going to obey you. You're going to obey me!" She began to clap.
"That's the Satan we all know and love. Prove the Bible right. You're doing fantastic!" He grabbed her throat.
"You don't think I can do many bad things to you right now?"
"Oh, I know you can. But to get all worked up because a human's feelings changed for you is a coward! There are worse things to be angry about than that!" He set her down and she rubbed her throat.
"I demand you to come back with me to Hell to fix what you've ruined!" She shook her head.
"I'm not sorry. Seeing you make out with Jezebel and having all those beautiful and handsome humans around you flirting and feeding you? Why couldn't they be me? I was in Hell with you! It was my time to be with you. Not you be with them!" The abandoned parking garage began to shake and he looked at her with angrier.
"Don't you fucking start!" He pointed a finger at her and she shrugged.
"You've been watching and listening to humans for a long time, surely, you know how to calm a woman down?" He came closer to her.
"Just remember darling, if this building goes down, you're the only one that goes down with it. The demons and I can't be killed. I would suggest you calm the fuck down before you hurt yourself!" The shaking stopped and he nodded. "Thought that would do the trick."
"So, you know how to calm a woman down, but you don't even know how to deal with her feelings for you? What kind of Devil are you? A stupid one?"
"Alright! Fine! You want me to solve this? Very well! I'm transforming this place into a court room. You can argue why it's okay for you to have feelings for me and I'll argue why you shouldn't. Feel up to it?" She nodded.

The place transformed into a court room. There were 2 long brown desks and a witness stand in between them. The demons all sat in front of them and one of them stood up. "You may present your case. Who would like to start first?" Colleen and Satan exchanged looks.
"Why don't I allow Satan to go first? Since he's the leader of all of you." She gave them a sarcastic smile as he stood up and looked at the demons.
"Colleen and I had made an agreement. I would stay in her life as her friend and in return she promised to only have platonic feelings towards me. We shook hands on it. As all of us know, I brought her to my home to strengthened up our friendship. I was nice to her the whole time she was there." She rolled her eyes as she crossed her arms. "Chaos began to happen and I knew she was responsible. You know God doesn't allow me to have any romantic relationships towards living humans. I'm keeping my word to him and keeping my word to a human. Why should I be treated this way?" He strengthened his arms. "Why am I being punished for being good? We've suffered many things from God, we don't need to suffer more. Would you not agree?" He stood in front of her and pointed at her. "If I allow her to have feelings for me," He turned back to the demons. "Do any of us want to take on another punishment from God? How many of us would look forward to that? Think of that while she argues her case." He looked at her and sat down.

She stood up and looked at the demons. "It's true that I don't know what any of you have suffered from God. I do know he has casted all of you in Hell but beyond that, I have no information. My apologies will mean nothing because I'm not the one that caused them. All of you know about the humans. The culture and the language. Surely, you know how many humans change their minds, their plans and even their feelings. Why should this be any surprise to see a human in flesh admit that her feelings for Satan have changed? Let's review the facts, shall we? The Bible calls Lucifer one of the most beautiful Angels that God had created." He stood up.
"I object! I'm no longer Lucifer! That was the old me. This is the new me. We should focus on that!" She frowned and crossed her arms.
"Changing your name doesn't change who you are. Once an Angel always an Angel!" He shook his head.
"You're not being fair!"
"Fine. I'll stop calling you Lucifer. Happy?" He nodded and sat down. She turned around and rolled her eyes. "All of you know Satan better than I do. You know he's smarter and wiser than an average human. I can come up with many ways he can deal with this peaceful, but he can't even come up with one?" He stood up again.
"I object! This court room is one way!" She looked at him.
"But can you come up with other solutions?" He nodded. "I doubt that. Let me prove it." She walked up to his desk and put her hands on it. "Correct me if I'm wrong, there are thousands upon thousands of humans in this world. You can surely pick another human to focus on. You have the power to transform yourself, then you can transform yourself into someone less attractive. If those things don't work, you can even introduce me to someone you know I would have strong feelings for to get over you. But instead of taking these potential steps, you rather complain and get angry. If you're so worried about God and punishment, there's still time to do something productive to avoid both. Would you not agree?" She returned to her seat.

He stood up and looked at the demons. "Colleen seems to have a bad memory." She frowned when she heard that. "If she would remember, I did transform myself." She stood up.
"Liar!" He turned around and smiled.
"Correct me if I'm wrong. Did I not show up to you once having black teeth that dripped out of my mouth? A white chest with a spiral on it?" She sat down and he nodded. "Told you." He looked back at the demons. "I've introduced her to several potential humans and she has turned them all down because she expects perfection and we all know that there's no such thing. I've tried to focus on other humans. The problem? She keeps demanding my attention. I promised to be her friend and be there whenever she needs me. So, when she calls, I come. When she wants someone to listen, I do. As you've heard, I've already tried to do things her way. She still has feelings for me. What more is there to do? Humans always blame me for tempting them. Yet, they don't take the accountability when they tempt me. This is the last act of doing anything that's productive and peaceful." He looked at her. "If she has any other way, I'm all ears." He went to his desk and sat down. The demons all looked at her and she stood up.

"Alright, I admit that have feelings for Satan isn't natural. However, you know that I'm on God's side. I would never do anything that he's not comfortable with." He stood up.
"If that was true, you would not gotten jealous or angry when you saw me with other humans!" She looked back at him.
"You speak the truth, but did I ever touch you? Kiss you? Have sex with you?" He sat down and looked away. "That's what I thought. So, we both agree that I've respected your boundaries just like you've respected mine. However, I'm willing to apologize for my angrier and jealously. It has been a long time since I've had strong feelings for anyone that I've forgotten how to control my emotions. There's one last way he can try." They all looked at her puzzled. "That way is to disappear and stay gone. If he can stay away for like 10 years or something, maybe I can get over him. Surely, that won't be too hard for him as he has plenty of human company to choose from. He has many responsibilities that he can do. Ruling Earth and Hell should be his priority and not on a human's feelings." She took her seat.

He looked at her. "You really have a poor memory, don't you? Did you not remember that I've stayed out of your life for 5 years? Still, you lusted over me?" She threw her head back. "Colleen, I've done it your way and it solved nothing!" She stood up.
"What would be your way then?" He smiled and looked at the demons.
"Yes, we should do things my way now."

He picked her up and threw her on the bed. "Like you've reminded me, I'm a King and a Prince, what can God do to me that hasn't already been done?" He unbuttoned her blue business suit and tore off her white blouse. He began to kiss her neck and she closed her eyes. She was fighting not to enjoy it.
"Demons! Do something! Do you not want to face God and his wrath?" They were coming closer to them and watched.
"Colleen, did you not hear us?" One of them asked. "What Satan wants, no one stands in his way. Not even us." She was appalled they were going to do nothing. She tried to stop him. "Satan, do you know what will happen if your dick should enter my pussy?" He began to enter her.
"We're about to find out."
"Satan, no! Stop!" He turned her over and grabbed her throat as she was kneeling on the bed in front of him.
"Colleen, think of one benefit this sex is giving you. Something for you to remember and masturbate over later. I won't be selfish as I've seen many humans be. Once I'm satisfied using your body to please me, you can use my body to please you. Don't hold back anything you want from having sex with me because this is the last time I'm fucking you!" He pushed her on the bed and began to do her doggy style.
"Satan, I can't enjoy this and neither can you!" She grabbed the sheets and began to moan.
"That's it, Colleen, allow yourself to feel pleasure like I am." She closed her eyes.
"Finally, your focus is on me and us." He looked at the demons. "See this? She can't even deny it anymore." She turned to look at him.
"Let me please you, please? Consider it getting out of my system."
"Will you do a good job?"
"You know I will." He sighed and laid on the bed.
"Right, I'm the boss. Get to work, my slave." She began to work and he nodded. It was his turn to moan and close his eyes. He touched her hair. "Get it all out. Every drop." When she felt him getting close, she got on top of him. "Want to ride me now?" She nodded.
"Think of it as you're giving me the sex I never had." The room was full of loud moaning and the bed squeaking that none of them heard the lightning and thunder.

"What are you two doing?" They opened their eyes and looked in surprise as God and 2 Angels stood in front of them. "You know better!" He pointed at him. "You know having sex with humans are on my forbidden list and yet you do this?" Satan's hands were on her ass as she was covered up her breasts. He sat up a little bit, putting his hands on the side of her legs and looked at him.
"What do I have to lose? Your punishment for me and for all the demons are the Lake of Fire. There's no changing that. So, why shouldn't I have fun?" God looked at Colleen.
"How could you do this? Do you not know who this is? He's my enemy and yours!"
"Would you allow me to get dressed so I can face you?" She asked not looking at him.
"No! You deserve to feel ashamed and embarrassed! You have plenty of humans to choose from and yet you picked him? What were you thinking?" She looked at him.
"You've never warned us that such thing was possible. Had I known that; I would have fought my feelings for him harder!" He looked at the two of them and landed on Satan.
"I know you were just trying to prove that your ways are better than hers. Since you went this direction, you're going to love what I'm about to tell you." He looked at him skeptical. "Colleen is now officially banned from Heaven." He looked at her. "When you pray, I will not answer. When you read the Bible, it would only cause you anguish. When you sing praises to me, I will not listen." He looked at both again. "You both know the Bible well, so let me give you this." He looked at Colleen. "You remember in the book of Genesis after Eve ate the fruit and I gave her the prophecy that you will be in pain during the labor of your child?" She nodded confused. "During the pain of your labor, it will be worse than Eve's. As Jesus said after you gave birth, you will forget the pain. However, for you? After you've gave birth, the pain will linger." He looked at Satan. "As for you? You will want her and no other. You will do anything to please her." He looked at him in horror.
"But I'm the King of Hell and the Prince of Earth." He smiled.
"Not anymore, you're not. You knew the rules and still you broke them. While you were arrogant to think I can't do anything worse than throwing all of you into the Lake of Fire, I'm God. I know how to think of things much worse than that. Enjoy the rest of your rule or shall I say, Colleen's rule?" He laughed and disappeared with the Angels.

Colleen looked at Satan. "Why did he talk about birth? I didn't think you could get a woman pregnant?" He looked at her.
"Is that all you got from God's little speech?" He asked angry and pushed her off. "I had to give up my throne and Earth for you!" She crossed her arms and shook her head.
"Boy, are you being stupid tonight!" He frowned at her.
"What the fuck is that supposed to mean?" She got up to join him on the floor.
"You know as well as I do, some humans didn't have to live with God's prophecy. I'm one of them. I've never experienced being pregnant. Not all humans go through painful labor. Not all humans work hard for what they have. After seeing that his prophecy doesn't apply to all, why should we take it seriously?" He came in front of her.
"You better hope you're fucking right because if not, God's prophecy won't be the only thing you have to worry about. You'll also have me to worry about." She nodded.
"Satan, this sex was your idea and not mine. But I see, you're just like the Democrats. Not accepting responsibility for your actions. Now I see which party you belong to." He was thinking and looked at her.

"If you are playing the part of Eve and I'm playing the part of Adam," he looked at her stomach. "Then you must be pregnant with the snake." She looked at him.
"So, now you're worried that I'm about to get pregnant?"
"Pregnant doesn't scare me. Losing my kingdom and my demons does!" He pointed at the demons. "I would never have given up my kingdom and my home for any humans not even for you!" He pointed at her.
"How ironic. We fucking gave up this Earth for you and we don't make you pay the price for it. But when a human turns around and does the same fucking thing, you can't handle it? Are you seriously telling me you're not stronger than us?" He put his hand on her throat and she smiled.
"Why the fuck are you smiling?"
"Because if God's prophecy was true, you wouldn't be having your hand on my throat. You would be worried about displeasing me. You know how I can get." He let her go.
"You have a point." She went to the end of the garage and looked at the sky.
"We both have a point." She looked at him. "Remember darling, it took time for God's prophecies to come to a pass for Adam and Eve. It will take time for his prophecies to pass for us."
"And if they do?" She looked down.
"We should have fought harder."

Judas stared at the demons in shock. "God actually caught the two of them having sex?" They nodded.
"To say Satan wasn't pissed would be an understatement."
"Did the prophecies come to a pass?"

Satan went back to Hell and searched everywhere for Baphomet but couldn't find him. He asked around but none of the demons have seen him for a while. He went to his library and began to search for the book Crekiael stole from God. He finally found a book called Lacus Ignis. He found a chair and began to read it.

I'm writing this book in hopes that it will never happen. Humanity deserves to have a chance to live the life that I've planned for them. Satan and his demons taught me the things that I've created-doesn't always go as planned. If things go as planned, then this book could be a reminder of how easy it could have gone to the opposite direction. Some believe Hell takes place on Earth. If only they knew they were only seeing how bad things can become. Which is why I've created this book for my eyes only. When the humans ate from the tree of good and evil, they had installed a part of evil inside of them. One evil part is arrogant. Some humans think they can handle things that they really can't. This is a book they won't be able to handle. Humans might think that they've already seen things and heard things they wish they could erase from their minds. If they never read this book, they would never find out how wrong they are.

People know how special names are. This also includes some insults. No mother would call their daughter Eve, in fear, their daughters will become like her. People refuse to call their sons Judas, in fear, their sons will act like him. But there's one insult that no one has ever gave each other. That insult? The Whore of Babylon. You might think what could a human do to deserve that kind of insult? Most people don't like to think about it or even fantasize about it. The truth is some humans find Satan appealing. Why? Since he has convinced most people to believe he doesn't exist, it makes people feel like he is their forbidden fruit. Some humans actually sexually fantasize about him. To give credit where it's due, he has behaved himself until he met Colleen Passion. It wasn't Satan who first saw potential in her. No, it was my former Angel Crekiael who did. Crekiael has the gift of imagination, creativity and you will see his work in many art forms. Paintings, books, movies, television, etc. He can share his gifts with anyone he pleases. Not only did he share his gift with her, but he also sold her to the Devil. You would think people, alone, sell their soul to him. No, sometimes the demons do and they're very good at it.

What did she do to deserve this insult? Was it because she was a writer? No. It was because she successfully got Satan to go where he shouldn't have. To put it plainly: They had sex. I've many things forbidden which you can read in the Bible. What I don't share is I also have a forbidden list for the Devil and his demons. They know better than to cross that line. Don't be deceived, they are scared of me. They know their power isn't equal to mine. That doesn't mean they don't try. Oh, they do and when they do, they find they fail. As I've mentioned, arrogant is just one part of evil. Humans, Satan and his demons all have this trait. Some people are just better at resisting it or hiding it.

Why would I have created such a woman like Colleen? Well, I've created people like Judas and Eve as I've mentioned. All stories need an ending. The Bible was only written to tell the beginning and a little bit of the ending as well. This book will tell you the complete ending of what's going to happen to Earth. Adam, Eve and the Snake were the beginning. I saw that it would only be fitting if the ending had an Adam, Eve and Snake again. Except it won't be the same people playing the roles. If you don't know by now, I shall tell you. Satan will be taking Adam's place; Colleen will be taking Eve's place and the Antichrist shall be taking the Snake's place. If you're a human, I would strongly recommend you close this book now. There's a reason all this wasn't written in the Bible. You've been warned.

When Satan realized the next few paragraphs told the story of what happened at the abandoned parking garage, he skipped that part and read on to the next few paragraphs.

I know some humans will find me a liar like Satan. It's understandable. Humans have taught others that trusting each other wasn't a wise thing to do. Colleen was right that the prophecies I gave Adam and Eve didn't happen right away, so I could see why she thought it would be the same for them. Humans want to believe in hope even when there's none. I want everyone to know that I'm a God of my word. So, if I say something will happen, it will. If I say something won't happen, it won't.

When I told Colleen her labor pains and after pains will linger, it was the truth. Having a child with Satan wasn't going to be easy. If he could take the risk of having sex with her without knowing the consequences, he could surely live with them. The rules of having a sexual relationship between him and humans have always been forbidden. He had no excuse. He should have been smarter to know that every action has consequences, good or bad. He probably wanted to believe that I only give out consequences to humans. Unfortunately, I give out consequences to Angels as well even if they are ex-Angels. They aren't exempted. He should have known that which is why I had no sympathy towards him. But I did have sympathy for Colleen. If you look up in the Bible, it didn't exactly say having sex with Satan was wrong or that it was actually possible. Still, she shouldn't have went there and now both are being severely punished. The worse part? The humans on Earth will all be caught up in the middle of this. My sympathy will go to my children which is why I will get them out before they will be scarred for life when they witness the events that will unfold. As for the rest? Sadly, they'll be on their own.

Beelzebub handed Judas his cellphone again. "As demons, you should know that we like tempting humans. We're going to tempt you to watch another masturbation video of Colleen. This was way before she had feelings for him. Can you spot the differences in the video?"
"She looks very young here, how old is she?" The demons smiled.
"13." He dropped the video.
"Are you fucking trying to get me to be a sex offender? If the cops or the FBI should find that!" Legion smiled.
"Call it an extra insurance for us. If you dare to write anything that's not being said or make Hell look horrible, we can release this proof that you've watched a 13-year-old masturbate. However, if you follow our rules, nothing will happen. Even if you stop now, you've already watched some of it. Either spot the differences or stop. It won't change anything." He sighed and picked up the video. Once again, he turned the volume up loud.
"Besides the fact that she looks younger, I can also tell that she's just masturbating over a human and not Satan." They nodded.
"Anything else?" He tried listening harder.
"I can also hear that she's not blasphemy against God." Legion took the phone from his hands and gave it back to Beelzebub.
"Now you see how we've changed her? When Baphomet said we'd changed her for the worse, he wasn't lying."
"But why did you change her?" The demons exchanged looks.
"Baphomet. He claimed she would be a perfect fit for our kingdom if we did."
"Are you sorry that you did?" They shook their heads and Legion looked at him.
"If anything? We wished it happened sooner." He stared at them in shock.

"Satan, what happened after you found Colleen was fascinating when she was 13?" He looked at the reporters as he smoked his cigarette. There was a far-away look in his eyes.

"Baphomet, why are we here? I've already seen that she's curious about me. 13-year-olds aren't supposed to be interesting yet." He was confused as Baphomet threw his head back and laughed. Once he calmed down, he looked at him.
"Oh, my dear boy, how false is that? I understand you think only certain people have an interesting life at a young age. But trust me, so does this one. Remember what I've taught you? How powerful family and friends can influence each other?" He nodded. "This one is no different. Under an influence of a friend, she learned one of the most interesting things to learn about Earth."
"That is?" He smiled.
"Masturbation." He stared at him confused.
"Why would I give a shit about her masturbation life?" He turned his whole body to look at him.
"I want you to give me your word that you'll control yourself. No matter what you hear or what you see."
"I strongly doubt I will lose self-control. She's only fucking 13!"
"What I'm about to show you is a glimpse into the future. I want you to see why you should want her." He shook his head as he looked at her.
"Why you're selling this woman so bad, I don't get it." He smiled and made him look at him.
"You will, trust me. Are you ready?" He crossed his arms.
"Do I have a choice?"

"Welcome back to the real time. How was the masturbation session?" Baphomet asked him. He stared at him and looked at her. She was sweating and breathing heavy.
"That was a good masturbation session." He looked back at him. "Who the fuck is this woman?" He laughed.

"Satan, Satan?" The reporters asked confused. He snapped out of it and looked at them. "Where were you?" He shook his head.
"Sorry about that."
"What happened after you found out she was fascinated by you at 13?"
"I was curious to how long her fascination towards me would last. It didn't last long. Figures."
"Do you know why?" He nodded.
"Kids and teens are about the same. They're learning about life. Give them a shiny toy and they'll pay attention to it for a while. After that, they move on to another shiny toy."
"You felt like you were her shiny toy?"
"Wouldn't be the first time."
"Moving on. Why did you stay away from her until she was 20 as she had said?" He looked at them.
"When I realized she wasn't into me, why should I have stayed? It would have been a waste of time for both."
"What did you do during that time instead?" He chuckled.
"I tried to forget about her." The reporters nodded.
"Did you?" He shook his head. "Why not?"

"I don't think that's the right question."
"What would be the right question."
"Why didn't Baphomet let her go and move on?" They looked at him stunned.
"You blame him for having stronger feelings for her?" He nodded. "Can you tell us why?"
"Humans like to think they're an expert when it comes to Baphomet and his history. Let's be frank here. No one knows him better than I do. I've been with him since the very beginning. When I said the very beginning, I mean before the rebellion of Heaven." They exchanged looks and looked back at him.
"You mean, he was someone else before Baphomet?" Satan chuckled.
"Did you forget your early Sunday learnings? Every demon has a story before they became a demon. The difference? The Bible only focused on me and gave the readers my backstory. Why it didn't give any details about his, I dunno. Maybe God was ashamed that he had allowed him to read his books and to take the path he did."
"What do you mean by allowing him to read God's books? You mean, there's more to the Bible?" He rolled his eyes and shook his head.
"Let's cut the crap. Humans wrote the Bible. Humans. It was not written by God himself. However, in Heaven, there's a collection of books that he had wrote. This is only according to the words of Crekiael."
"Who is he?"
"That was Baphomet's name before he became the most trusted demon there is. Every demon including me depends on him. He knows things none of us do."
"Things like?" He shrugged.
"I only know what he tells me. He probably won't admit it but he likes knowing we all depend on him for his knowledge and wisdom." They nodded.
"Are we allowed to interview him?" He smiled.
"You'll have all the time in the world to interview him, trust me." They looked at him puzzled. "For now, you need to focus on Colleen and I."
"Alright, tell us why you blame Baphomet for your strong feelings towards her." He put his arms on his knees and put his hands together. He looked straight ahead.
"Because there's no sense in lying about the story, he was my friend in Heaven. I taught him how to play the harp and in exchange, he would tell me about the books he read."
"He convinced you to rebel, didn't he?" He looked at them.
"You're being smart now. Of course, he did. He claimed there were 2 books. One that would foretell what would happen if the rebellion didn't take place and the other book, well, we're living in it right now."
"Do you blame him for convincing you?" He shook his head.
"What I failed to realize until it was too late was how well he can sell." He looked at both as he drank his shot. "You know how well I can sell, but Baphomet?" He shook his head. "He's better. If the rebellion didn't happen, I doubt he would have gotten that gift."
"So, other demons have other gifts as well?" He nodded.
"My gifts are obviously to transform and to play music better than anyone that will ever live. Baphomet, his gifts are creativity, imagination and he can sell better than any salesperson you've ever met."
"Why did you give in to his sale's pitch about rebelling in Heaven?" He shrugged.
"He gave me no reason not to believe him. I knew he had access to God's books."
"He sold you to tempted the humans to eat the forbidden fruit?" He looked at his glass.
"If you know all of these things, why are you asking me these questions?" He saw the reporter's smile.
"While we know these things, we don't know what you were thinking during the events. What you were feeling during that period. Only you can answer that." He nodded.
"Proceed."
"Why did you believe his sale's pitch about tempting the humans?" He looked at both in the eyes.

"Let me ask you questions of my own. Who wouldn't want to be in power? Who wouldn't want fame, wealth and adoration? When the demons and I saw that God was creating these new creatures, we wanted to expand our knowledge and wisdom by learning all we could about them. Humans aren't the only curious creatures in this Universe. Rather any human admits it or not, we're all dealing with the same God. When he told me I could help the humans to coexist with us, I figured since we're all dealing with the same God, we could help each other out. I know him better than anyone on this Earth does. I also know this so-called Jesus as well. If you want to know about them, look no further." He drank his shot again. The reporters nodded.

"Alright, we know the backstory of you and Baphomet. Are you ready to tell us about how Colleen came into the picture?" There was a brief silence.
"There's one more thing I want to say before I get to that. I believe God had written thousands of books on every human that will ever live. How Baphomet can remember all the books is beyond me. When he convinces me to share our gifts with the humans, let me be clear." He held the glass towards them. "It doesn't affect me. I know that might be hard to believe, but it's the truth. However, how they act after they receive our gifts is on them and them alone. I think when we give out our gifts, you see human's true colors. Rather they are good or bad."
"Which category did she fall into." He roared and laughed.
"She had sex with me and she falls in love with me, what does that tell you?"

Humans never noticed a man with a black top hat, black business suit and a snake cane walking around Earth. Most of the time, he would enter bars full of beautiful women that were desperate for money. He would offer them his business card which would have 666 on it and whisper into their ear where to go. When the beautiful women got to the door, they would be in surprise to see the Devil himself. "Card?" They would hand him the card and he would nod. "Alright, you'll be given fame and wealth. Have fun!" He would slam the door in their face and 99% of them would laugh it off only to find out in the coming weeks that he was serious. The men were no different. They also didn't believe that it was really the Devil and that it was bullshit until the results came.

Baphomet finally stood before a house in a small rural area. He could see the demons on the right and the left looking at him with curiously. What was he doing here? He checked his watch and found out she was finally 13. Rather she was ready or not, he was. One thing he learned; it was better to start when humans were in their innocent stage. He knocked on door and a man answered. "Can I help you?" He smiled.
"I believe you have a daughter named Noelle living here?" He looked at him puzzled.
"And who the hell are you?" He smiled.
"I know you think she has no talent because of her disabilities. But even the ones that are disabled can surprise the hell out of you. You have a choice, allow me to work with your daughter and make her worthy or I can walk away and you can live with the disappointment that she'll never amount to anything." He crossed his arms.
"And what offer are you offering?" He smiled.
"You really should have raised your daughter in a Christian home. Sadly, since you've not, you won't believe who I am."
"You're the Devil?" He mocked and he threw his head back and laughed. Once he calmed down, he shook his head.
"Actually, I'm worse than the Devil." He nodded.
"And if I say no?" He walked backwards and looked at the demons. They came to stand behind him and he looked at him as he leaned on his snake cane.
"As you can see, I'm not alone. We can do this the easy way or the hard. Your choice, Jim."
"How the fuck do you know my name!" He shook his head as he looked at the demons on his right.
"Why do humans have such a hard time believing Hell exists? That evil exists?" He checked his watch. "Time is ticking. You have 5 seconds. Do you really think you can handle all these demons on your own?" The demons all looked at him ready for a fight. "They've been fighting humans longer than you can imagine." He sighed.
"She's in her room." He smiled.
"Of course, she is. Why would she want to fellowship with you? You don't know her language. Reading lips makes her eyes hurt and her brain tired." He patted him on the back. "You've made a wise decision." He headed up the stairs and towards her bedroom.

Noelle was watching TV and doing homework during the commercials, when he came in. She looked up at him puzzled. He came in and shut the door. She knew she should have been frightened but for some reason, she wasn't. He looked around her room and nodded. "Sad that your dad doesn't set you up with boundaries. But then again, he doesn't even know how to compromise." He signed and she stared at him.
"You know how to sign?" She asked back in sign language and he smiled.
"I know every language known to men." He looked at her bed. "May I sit down?" She nodded and he took a seat at her bed. "I'm here to make you an offer."
"What kind of offer?"
"You love to read and write, don't you?" She nodded. "How about becoming a writer?" She looked at him surprised and stood up.
"I'm not just deaf, I have cerebral palsy too." He nodded as he watched her walk.
"I know all about you and being a writer doesn't mean you have to be abled bodied or hearing." She nodded.
"That's true. But I haven't written any good stories."
"You will. I know you like challenges." She looked at him surprised.
"How do you know so much about me?" He shook his head and waved his hand.
"You'll find out all in good time. I know we just met, but if you're interested in being a good writer, I have an offer for you." He pulled out a business card in his black jacket. "Go to this address and give him this card. He'll know what it means." She saw it had 666 and under that the word: Satan.
"Why does it say, Satan?" He walked over to her window and looked out of it. Demons were still all around the house and he looked back at her. "I know you are tight with God. But think about it this way. You need to learn all you can about the enemy, don't you agree?" She nodded and he got down to her level. "Don't be afraid. Satan isn't as scary as the movies and television shows make him out to be. Aren't you curious?" She nodded. "Then go, see him." He was ready to leave, when she stopped him.
"Hey!" He turned around to look at her. "Will I be seeing you again?" He nodded.
"You can count on that."
"Does he know sign language too?" He smiled.
"Satan knows every language known to men. You'll communicate with him just fine. Now you have a good day and keep studying!" She nodded and he left.

Noelle looked at the address in the front of the business card and looked up at the house. It looked so eerie that she was wondering if it had been a good idea when she saw some women and men get in front of her. They smiled and walked up to the house. She watched as the first woman knocked on the door. She couldn't see the figure but took the card and the woman left. When she saw that they weren't afraid, she decided to be bold and approach the house. He was ready to shut the door, when she stopped him. He looked up and down at her in confusion. When he held out his hand, she gave him the card. He stared at it for a minute before looking at her. When he realized that he had to invite her in, he was afraid that she would be afraid. With no choice, he opened the door and she came inside. It was dark when she entered inside the house until she saw lights get on. She remembered the man's words and slowly turned around. He looked like every Hollywood version of Satan. He crossed his arms and she could tell he was waiting for something. Perhaps a scream, watching her run away, but she didn't feel fear and just waited for him to guide her to where she should go. After a minute, he went in front of her and she followed him.

He opened the door and they went down the spiral steel staircase. She was wondering where he was taking her. Once they were at the bottom, she saw thousands of demons. They all looked at her with the same curiously she did. She watched him point to behind them while talking to a demon and saw him leave. He opened a door and held it open for her. There sitting at a long black table was the same man that came to visit her. He smiled and gestured towards an empty chair. "Good to see you again, Noelle." He signed and voiced and she nodded. After she took her chair, Satan took another empty chair.
"Baphomet, what's the meaning of this?" He frowned.
"Satan, sign, the child is deaf." He rolled his eyes and repeated the question in sign language. "Satan, I'm giving this child the gift of my creativity and imagination. She'll grow up to become a writer."
"I failed to understand what this has to do with me."
"I just thought the two of you should meet." He finally looked at her. "After all, she'll be writing stories about Hell. She should witness the real deal before she writes." She looked at him in surprise.
"You want me to write stories about Hell? Why would I want to do that?" She asked in sign language and he smiled.
"Remember darling, while you believe yourself to be a Christian, should it not be your duty to know all you can about the enemy? What's a better way than to write stories about us?" She looked at Satan and back at him.
"I can see your point." He took a seat near her and put his hands into hers.
"I want you to do me a favor in exchange for me to give you, my gifts. I want you to get to know Satan better." He looked at the Devil and he frowned. "He's not scary and he has no reason to hurt you." She looked at him and he looked at her.
"Baphomet, I'm not babysitting a damn 13-year-old!" He looked at him.
"Do it for me. Call it a personal favor." When he saw him hesitating still, he sighed. "Have I ever asked you for a personal favor?"
"How long will I have to babysit her?"
"I'll tell you what. Babysit her until she's 15. After that, you'll be free."
"2 years, huh?" He nodded.
"You both are alike in many ways. One of them are challenges. So, think of this as a challenge, Satan. One that I'm sure you can surely overcome." He sighed and looked at her.
"And what will you be doing?" He smiled and stood up.
"Recruiting more humans for us. My work is never done." He looked at his watch. "I really should be going now." He looked at Noelle and kissed her on her head. "You'll be fine, don't worry." He looked at Satan. "Be nice!" He left.

She looked at him. "Who was that guy?" He smiled.
"His name is Baphomet and he's one of my demons." She nodded. "What school do you go to?" She looked at him.
"Oh, Stonewall Jackson."
"State?"
"WV." He nodded.
"8th grade huh?" She shook her head.
"I failed 2nd, so I'm actually in 7th grade."
"Got it." He stood up. "I suppose I'll be showing you to your room." She followed him.

"For 2 years, you took care of her like a father?" The reporter asked and he nodded.
"Baphomet didn't really give me a choice."
"And he never told you what for?" He shook his head.
"I had my own theories. I believed she might be an actress in a Satanic film, a painter that would paint pictures of me, or even a witch. Never did I ever think it would have something to do with romantic." He gave them a sarcastic smile.
"During those 2 years, did you start to have romantic feelings for her?"

"I'm not sure what rules you had to follow in your house. I'm sure my rules will be different." He signed and voiced the next morning over breakfast. "If you want to stay here, you will follow them."
"What are they?" She signed and voiced and he smiled.
"Rule number one, I'm god in your eyes. After all, I'm going to be feeding you, taking you to and from school, helping you with your homework and making sure you have all that you need." She was surprised. "I don't see God doing that for you, do you?"
"You have a point."
"Rule number 2. I demand you to worship me. Every morning, you will ask me if I need anything or if there's any way you can please me. Every night, you are to thank me for the day you had. If you can't think of anything, think of thanking me because you're alive. Rule number 3, I understand that you will have friends. But I'm first. If I need you in here, you will be here. No excuses. You want to go there or there; you will ask permission first. The last rule? In this house, you're free to blasphemy against God. I wouldn't hold it against you." She looked at him confused.
"Blasphemy against God, how?" He smiled.
"You came to the right place for that. I'll teach you over time how to do so. Do you agree with all the rules I've listed?" She nodded. "Your room better be cleaned every day. If I see your room a mess, you won't be going to school until it's cleaned. Understood?"
"Yes."
"Alright, eat up, you need to go to school soon." She ate her breakfast. When she was about to leave the room, he grabbed her hand. "Give me a kiss on the cheek before you leave." She was surprised but did so. "Now, you may leave." She got on her jacket and went to school.

After dinner, he sat on his throne and she stood in front of him. "You know what you need to do." He signed and voiced. She nodded and got down on her knees. She kissed his 2 hooves.
"Thank you for another day to live, my god." She signed and voiced. He smiled, looked at a demon and lifted her chin.
"Good girl, give me a kiss on my cheek and you may go to bed." She stood up and gave him a kiss. He watched her leave.

"Baphomet was right, this is fun." The demon looked at him confused and he sighed. "Just think I'm molding that girl into my image instead of God's. She'll be mine in no time. A demon in training." The demon nodded.
"I can see your point. Hopefully, her training won't take long." Satan rolled his eyes.
"Being a deaf and cerebral palsy teenager, I strongly doubt she's a fast learner. I'm sure she will fail me in every way." The demon shrugged and watched him get a drink.
"She can still surprise you, my dark lord. I don't need to remind you of the story of David, do I?" He shot him a look.
"No! No Bible stories! Not in this house!" He drank his shot. "Praise the demons for alcohol. Without it, I don't think I could survive 2 years of raising that child."
"You could look at it as a challenge as Baphomet had suggested my dark lord." He was making his way back to his throne.
"How so?" The demon smiled as he stood in front of him.
"Jim made it look easy to be better than him. Just learn how to sign, give her attention and she's yours. Surely, it can't be hard to be a better father than her own?" He nodded.
"That's a good point. She won't be his daughter anymore, she'll be mine." He nodded.
"And like every child there is, she'll want to make you proud. If you act like he is or worse, why would she give a shit about what you think or feel?"
"Another good point, my dear demon. If Baphomet wants me to work with her, consider it done." He drank his shot.

"She really surprised me by following all my rules and I didn't have to punish her at all. In the beginning, she was very quiet and shy. I thought teenagers would be full of news and do nothing but talk. It was months before she finally cracked out of that shell and became comfortable around me and the demons. She had questions about how we did things, what we did, etc. She seemed to be genuine curious."
"Is that why you fell for her? She was comfortable around Hell and asking questions?" A reporter asked. He smiled and shook his head. "Then, what was it?" He sighed.
"Baphomet told me that I only had to keep her for 2 years. I didn't. I kept her for one more year. I was having way too much fun to have it end."
"After you finally let her go?"
"I confess I never understood the meaning of marriage. What's wrong with dating and having fun? But then again, I'm one of those that hate to be tied down. That day she left, I finally understood to an extent about marriage. 'It's when you're scared to lose them that you finally realize that marrying them is one way to avoid that.'"

"Satan, for the last time, that's not Noelle!" Annoyance was in the demon's voice as he shook his head. "You think she's Noelle, or that's Noelle." He pointed at different female teens. "Enough! You need to move on. You did your job and even Baphomet said you couldn't have done better. I thought you would be happy that she's gone?" Satan sighed and put his hands on his hips as he looked down.
"I know. I don't know what is wrong with me. No human has ever made an impact on me like she has." The demon made his way over to him and put his hand on his shoulder.
"Satan," He said gently. "I think we need to go to the witches." He looked up at him in surprise.
"What? Why?" He closed his eyes.
"I think you're falling for her." He looked appalled and began to laugh.
"Demon, are you high? You know I don't fall for any human. Man or woman. Much less a fucking damn teenager!"

"I know that many people think that Satan is on top of Hell's ladder." Legion began to speak. "But actually, Baphomet is. Without him, we wouldn't be as successful as we are." He drank blood and looked at him. "We're actually more scared of him than we are of the Devil."
"Why are you telling me this?"
"If you don't think he challenges us, you'll be mistaken. There were times he liked to challenged us. We take it like the strong and intelligent demons that we are. We give it our best shot and hope that he's pleased with our work. There was a specific challenge that he had gave us concerning Colleen."
"What was it?" The demons looked straight ahead.

Baphomet looked at all the demons in Hell. "How many of you believe that you know Satan very well. Better than any human that can ever exist?" They all raised their hands and he nodded. "How many of you would pass the test, shall I test you?" They looked at him in surprise.
"Depends on what kind of test." A demon spoke up and he hit the chair with his snake staff.
"No! It should not matter what kind of test it is! What is the bottom line is that you know him well enough to pass any kind of test. If you have any doubts, there's the door." He pointed at the door with his staff. "Go back to God if he would allow any of you to enter Heaven again." They shook their heads. "Good. I have a huge test for you to pass. Shall any of you fail it, you won't be dealing with Satan's wrath, you'll be dealing with mine." They exchanged worried looks.
"And what test is this?" He looked at the demon who spoke and looked at the screen in the middle of the room. A picture of Colleen popped up. "This is a woman I want to pair with Satan, but in order for that to happen, you would need to work your magic."
"Let me get this straight." A demon spoke up. "You want us to demon possess her?"
"Yes. I want you to reprogram her into Satan's dream woman." They looked at him in surprised.
"You want us to make Satan want her?" He nodded.
"Surely, the ex-Angels that followed us from Heaven into Hell has worked miracles before. You can make her says words that would be like music to his ears. You've been around humans enough to know how to make them fall in love with each other."
"Having Satan to fall in love with a human was not in the job description!" A demon called out and he nodded.
"What I'm hearing is that the demons aren't up for the challenge. They can't do it. Am I right? I bet you even think you can't be replaced. News flash, we've trained witches in case any of you become a weakling!" They began to protest and he yelled to silent the room. "I only need 1 answer from you. Will you do the job I've assigned you to do or do I need to go to the witches?"
"What you're asking for is impossible!" Called out one demon and he nodded.
"Good thing we still have witches!"
"You're bluffing!" He smiled.
"Am I? You'll bear the witness."

"You want us to what?" 3 group of witches were gathered around him and he sighed.
"I realized that this is not a task you're usually expecting from Hell. I get it. But it's critical that Colleen's a match for him." One of the witches crossed her arms.
"Do you know how many women rather they are nuns, witches or Theistic Satanists wishes to be his? What about us? I thought we had a chance to be with him." He smiled.
"Look. Colleen will be a woman that's willing to share. The only thing that you will allow her to do is to bear his first child. After that, if he's generous, he will allow others. If you refuse to reprogram her, I can find another woman who wouldn't be willing to share. Choose."

"Wait!" 2 demons came running in. "We've changed our minds. We'd do it!" He looked at them.
"What made you change your mind?" A demon sighed.
"We really didn't think you would go to the witches." He smiled and gestured towards them.
"They haven't officially given me their answer. If they shall refuse, you'll have another chance at it." He turned to look at them. "What's your official answer?" They exchanged looks.
"How well do you know this woman?" He smiled.
"Very well. Enough to tell you that she'll be a woman that's willing to share him. I've seen the future between the two of them. I know her better than he does." They nodded.
"We'll be willing to work on a spell to get her pregnant, if the demons," They looked at them. "Are willing to reprogram her." Baphomet looked at them.
"Are you seriously in?" They nodded and he looked at the witches. "I'll keep my word, if you're willing to keep yours."
"We shall do what you've asked." They bowed and he nodded.
"Good. I'll see you when the time is ready." He looked at the demons. "Let's go."

Colleen stood in front of Hell like a robot. Baphomet looked at all the women and men. "You've all been chosen because Satan had liked you for one thing or another. I'm asking you to give your gifts to Colleen."
"And what should happen to our gifts?" Jezebel asked. "Would he still love us and want us?" He walked up to her.
"I understand your fear of losing him. How about this? If she should choose not to embrace her gifts you're giving her, you can take them back and have control over her." He looked at the lost souls. "You're finally having a chance to have power. Do you really want to lose this chance?"
"She better be damn worth it!" She told him and he smiled.
"I've already gave you options if she shall fail."
"Very well. Let's enter her and give her our gifts." They jumped into her and began to reprogram her.

After they left her body, he walked up to her. "Look at me, my dear." She looked at him. "How beautiful is Satan?" She smiled.
"So beautiful I want no one else." He nodded.
"How far will you go to please him?"
"As far as he wants me to go." He nodded and looked at the beautiful men and women.
"As a token for your services, you may now sit at the high seat of Hell and bear witness to the woman you've created. At last, it can begin." He smiled.
