Chapter 4: The Release

"These things I command you, that ye love one another. If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before it hated you." John 15:17-18

The three were gathered around the Ouija board which identified itself as Lucifer. They were still a bit disturbed by the way Professor Roberts had reacted two days earlier. In every Defense Against the Dark Arts class, he kept throwing anxious glances at them,

"What is wrong with him?" asked Ron.

"I've been doing some reading," said Hermione, "And many people believe that the boards can summon evil spirits and demons."

"That's crap," said Ron.

"Why don't we ask the board and find out," suggested Harry.

"Alright," said Hermione, "Are you a demon?"

The pointer then moved to the word 'NO'.

"What are you, then?" asked Harry.

The pointer then spelled out the sentence: I AM A FALLEN ANGEL.

"Do you mean you used to be an angel?" asked Hermione.

The pointer then spelled: YES UNTILL I WAS STRIPPED OF MY POWER AND AUTHORITY OVER THE ANGELS OF GOD.

"Who stripped you of your power?" asked Hermione.

Lucifer then spelled out: MY FATHER.

"Who is your father?" asked Ron.

Lucifer then spelled: MY FATHER IS YOUR FATHER.

"What do you mean?" they asked together.

Lucifer then spelled: YOU ARE ALL SO FUCKING STUPID.

"Why do you talk like that?" asked Hermione.

Lucifer then spelled: BECAUSE I AM EVIL.

"Do you have any powers?" asked Ron anxiously

Lucifer then went to the word: YES.

"Can you show us?" asked Ron.

"Ron," said Hermione.

Lucifer then spelled: SIMPLY REPEAT THE FOLLOWING WORDS.

"Alright," said Ron.

"Ron," said Hermione, "I don't think that this is such a good idea."

"Come on Hermione," said Ron, "This is Hogwarts, what could happen here?"

"I don't know," said Hermione.

"Come on," implored Ron.

"Alright," said Hermione.

Lucifer then spelled: WE SUMMON THEE O LUCIFER TO WALK AND TO ROAM THROUGH OUR BODIES AND HOME WHILE WE PRAY AVE SATANI.

The three repeated this and all of a sudden the whole castle shook and they all heard shrieks and screams that sounded as if they came from thousands of tortured souls. All three of them were flung away from the board and they all cried and shrieked and ripped at themselves and when it had all stopped they all got up. Ron and Harry's pants were covered in semen and at Hermione's feet was a trail of blood and semen and on the wall, written in blood were an inverted cross and the words: THE DRAGON IS FREE.
