After finishing her recent lecture, Satania strutted through the crowded university hallways on her way to the school's cafeteria. After buying a small lunch consisting of a ham and cheese sandwich, melon bread and a water she walked over to her friends' usual table, where she found Raphiel eating a parfait.

"Hey Raphi!" Satania said ecstatically as she began to sit down.

"Ah, hello Satania. How was your philosophy lecture?"

"It was torturous. I swear that old man's a demon. There's no way I'm gonna finish a three page essay in two days!" Satania complained as she began shoveling food into her mouth.

"You won't become the future queen of hell with that attitude. Well classes aside, when are you gonna tell me about that dream of yours?" Raphiel asked, no longer able to contain her curiosity.

"Oh yeah! It was super weird." Satania said between large mouthfuls of food. " I'll tell you once Gabriel and Vigne get here...and speak of the angel and devil." Walking up to the table was Vigne with Gabriel in tow.

"Hey guys." Vigne greeted.

"Yo." Gabriel greeted apathetically.

"Okay now that everyone is here it's time for the tale of Satania's great oracle!" Satania shouted excitedly now that everyone was seated.

"Uggghh I was really hoping she forgot." Gabriel mumbled, intent on ignoring the demon.

"Okay so...ummm...there was a bunch of clouds on a hill...errr... " Satania trailed off as the rest of her memory hazed at the thought of the memory.

"That's it? Nothing else?" Vigne asked.

"Not really living up to the hype..." Gabriel said.

"I kinda forgot after lectures okay! I knew I should've wrote down what happened." Satania huffed.

"Hmm... maybe we can jog your memory? That might help." Raphiel suggested.

"I doubt it, the dream was so short, nothing would help me remember." Satania said, slumping onto the table in defeat.

"Bummer." Gabriel said halfheartedly while eating her lunch.

The group fell into a silence as the break period dragged on. As students filed in and out of the dining hall, Satania heard a student singing a pop song. 'Catchy song. What's she singing...singing...the singing girl!'

"THATS IT!" Satania yelled, slamming her hands down on the table.

"Eh? What's it?!" Vigne said startled.

"Whuzat?" Gabriel said groggily, the commotion waking her from her short nap.

"There was a girl! In my dream! And she was singing something!"

"Yeah still not listening," Gabriel yawned , then closed her eyes again.

"Seriously, all this commotion for nothing. Sounds more like a crush you have on someone than some 'vision'." Vigne stated.

"WHAT?!" the ditzy demon screeched.

"Well it is said that dreams show us our true desires." Raphiel pointed out.

"Is that so? Huh."Satania replied.

"Oh yes. So Satania...Who is this mysterious lover of yours?" Raphiel bounded on the hapless demon in an instant. Paling at her ivory-haired friend's usual sadistic gleam, Satania could barely make out something far more dangerous in the angel's eyes. As soon as it was there, however, the look was gone, replaced by the familiar sadistic gaze.

"E-even if that were true and I knew who she was, why would I tell you?" Satania stuttered out, hoping the angel would stop looming over her.

"But aren't I your faithful apprentice Satania? As your closest follower I should know of potential dangerous partners should I not?" Raphiel retorted skillfully.

"When you put it like that...I guess..."

"So who is she then!?" Raphiel squealed excitedly.

"I told you I don't know who! I don't even remember what she LOOKS like, let alone who she is!"

"As much as I'd love to continue listening to whatever this is, break is almost over." Vigne interjected. "Come on Gab, we have to go to our next class." "It was just getting good too." Gabriel pouted. "You can always text her, now let's go. We're making plans to hangout this weekend right?"

"Yep! I'll text you all later so we can discuss then." Raphiel said. "Alright. See you guys." Vigne waved as she dragged Gabriel to their next lecture.

"Well I guess I should start heading to my next class too." Raphiel stated as she started to get up from the table.

"I'm done for the day so I can walk you there. Be honored that I am gracing you with my presence! " Satania huffed proudly.

"What an honor it is to be escorted by the great arch-demon herself!" Raphiel played along as the two began to leave the cafeteria.

"So besides that hill and the mysterious woman, nothing else comes to mind from your dream.?" Raphiel asked while the two walked down the main courtyard.

"Not really. Well, there was an unnatural amount of light, now that I think about it. The clouds were also really yellow." Satania replied.

"Hmm...to be frank, it kind of sounds like your dream took place in heaven."

Satania turned quickly to face Raphiel. "Really?! Then that means I will soon rule heaven just as planned! DAWWWW HAHAHAHA DAHHHHH HAHAHAHA!" she cackled.

"Don't let your dreams be dreams Satania!" Raphael said, giggling at the sudden outburst.

The two continued into a hallway until they arrived at the room where Raphiel's next lecture would be held. "Well, this is where we part ways. I already have an idea of where we can hangout so I'll text you the details tomorrow. '' Raphiel said.

"Okay! See you!" Satania waved.

The demon watched the angel sit down and left when more students headed into the classroom. 'Everyone's in class...no reason to stick around here. Might as well head home.' Satania headed towards the university's main gate, slowly losing her energy with each step as she headed for the bus stop.


After exiting the shower, Satania got ready to sleep. Donning her pajamas, Satania plopped down in her bed.

"No new text messages huh, well guess I can just look at memes until I knock out."

Turning off her lights and laying on her side, Satania continued to use her phone until she finally succumbed to the pull of sleep. Placing her phone in its charger, Satania drifted off into subconsciousness.

'Mmmm...it's that same feeling again...am I in that dream again? Yes! Now I can try to remem-!' Her train of thought halted abruptly as multiple waves of pain shot through her. 'The heck's wrong with me? Why can't I get up?'

Wearily opening her eyes, Satania found her answer. Multiple bruises marred her body. Her body screaming at her for moving, she was finally able to rest on her elbows despite the pain. The demon was able to take in the horrific sights around her. The scene was in full pandemonium, resembling a war zone with its blood red sky and the demolished remains of buildings. Heavily armored figures swarmed around detaining and slashing at anyone that moved. Satania's face paled at what she saw next however.

"Vigne? Gabriel?!" she gasped sharply as her normally prominent voice became weak with pain. Lying next to her were the lifeless bodies of the angel and demon, their faces devoid of any emotion. 'What the hell is happening?' Feeling a burning sensation rise up her throat, Satania began to cough up a mix of bile and blood.

"Satania! Thank god you're awake!"

After a coughing fit, Satania looked up to see Raphiel kneeling over her. "R-Raphi? What-" she grunted painfully before continuing. "what's... going...on?! Where… the hell... are we?!" Satania asked frantically between strained breaths.

"Try not to talk too much! Don't worry, everything will be fine!" As Raphiel exclaimed this, Satania could hear the sound of metal footsteps approach and surround them.

"Raphiel Ainsworth Shiraha. Step aside from the demon." an armored figure said, pointing his halberd at her chest, the weapon's blade buzzing with energy.

"I refuse. I will guard her with my life." Raphiel stated defiantly, spreading her arms to shield her friend.

"So be it. Our lord has no use for tainted angels. May Dea the creator grace you. Ave Crux Spes Unica!"

Before Raphiel could retaliate, the figure thrust his halberd into Raphiel's chest in one fluid motion, piercing her until the weapon emerged out of her back. Satania heard a pained gasp and watched helplessly as blood from her best friend dotted her face, before the figure removed his weapon and Raphiel's body fell to the side.

"RAPHIEL!"
