"Oh!" Kara was just starting to really understand what the group had walked into this time.
"Woah, buddy you ok?" The barman asked as Lucifer walked into the bar, suit torn and covered in debris,
"It has been a long day!" Lucifer responded,
"It's 10am!" The man looked at him in surprise.
"As I said it has been a long day!" Lucifer perched himself on a stool and smiled, "I knew I should have stayed in bed!"
"Fair enough man, you sure you don't need an ambulance of something?" The barman looked at the Devil with concern,
"I am fine thank you, do you happen to know a good tailor? I think I am in need of a new suit!...Again!" Lucifer smirked.
"Do I look like I know a tailor?" Lucifer observed the man before him and closed his eyes whilst shacking his head. The barman laughed, "What can I get you?"
"One of everything!"
"You gunna be able to pay for that?" Lucifer slapped down a stack of notes, the barman's eyes widened. "Guess so!"
Kara had left Caitlin to her thoughts and made her way into the Cortex, "Hey guys?" She questioned as a way of introduction, both Cisco and Barry looked up from their screens, waiting for her to continue, she paused, not entirely knowing what she should ask, "So, the Devil?"
"Yeah! We're having some trouble with that bit too!" Barry pinched his nose but still grinned a little,
"Weird day ha?" Kara smiled as she shrugged,
"Little bit!" Barry matched her smile,
"Should we? I don't know, go after him?" Kara cautiously asked, looking at the two men,
"I … guess?" Cisco answered, clearly not all that sure either, "doesn't seem to the usual situation, where were the threats of death and destruction?" He was focused on his screen and continued to tap on his tablet,
"Maybe we have finally run out of the usual villains of the week types?" Kara offered helpfully.
"So how do we track a celestial being?" Barry asked cutting off any further theories, thinking it best to get moving.
"Well I tried to x-ray vision him when he was sitting in the conference room, but WOW!" Kara blew out a breath, "It was like looking into a star and I have never seen anything like that before!"
"If you flew over city, could you spot that again?" Cisco asked,
"Without a doubt, will give me an almighty headache though!" Kara answered but prepared herself to start the search.
"Sorry Kara, I think that is our only option at this point." Cisco answered apologetically,
"No, Cisco, its ok but you better have the potstickers ready though!" Supergirl wore a serious look but quickly broke out into a grin again.
"Any idea what we do when we find him?" Cisco asked looking a little nervous, "I mean, we have far too many questions here, he stopped both of you without any effort! Sorry!" Cisco ducked his head a little embarrassed at his last statement.
Barry and Kara had no answers!
The bartender looked on as Lucifer sank yet another drink, the man reached inside his jacket to retrieve a packet of cigarettes and pulled one to his lip, "Sorry man, can't smoke in here," he was met with an eye roll, but the man complied and made his way to the exit finding himself in a alleyway.
Outside in the crisp afternoon air, Lucifer looked briefly to the sky with distain then lit his cigarette, taking a deep drag he shook his head, how was he going to resolve this situation? Was it in his power to solve this? More importantly, how had he ended up here in the first place? The humans seemed like they may be able to assist him in his return to his family, travel between realities was a thing on this world, so that was a positive but then again the whole situation was a problem for later. Now was the time for drinking, maybe some drugs.
Then he heard a scream.
Supergirl was in flight, searching the city for the Devil, she heard a scream.
A hooded figure was pressed against the wall of the alleyway, making sure he wasn't spotted by the passers-by, he would pick a suitable target and then get away before the police were called or the Flash showed up. It was early afternoon, the lunch rush had passed so the streets were quite, so now he waited for the right target. Then he spotted her.
Like most teenagers, the girl had no self-awareness, she had earphones in and was clearly enjoying whatever music young people listened too and he didn't care, knowing he could easily grab her off of the street and into the alleyway without too much fuss or anyone noticing. As the girl passed the mouth to the alley, he struck, knife pressed against her throat, with one hand over her mouth as he dragged he into the shadow,
"Make a sound and I will cut you bitch!" He whispered into her ear, the wide eyed girl just nodded. The hooded man span her around to face him, knife held menacingly, "Now give me your bag and I will let you go!" His words were cold but what terrified the girl was the way he was looking at her, his eyes swept over her body and his evil smile grew. The girl did the only thing she could think of and screamed.
"Oh I don't think so!"
Supergirl had landed at the mouth of the ally, she was ready to step in and help this poor girl, then she saw him, the Devil walking into the scene, the man had a confident swagger but he moved like a predator,
"Oh I don't think so!" The coldness and strength of his voice caused Kara to shiver again, he had seen her but was focused on the hooded assailant, "See, I would have stopped you for just attempting to rob this poor girl but I have seen that look before, you know there is a special place in Hell for those who have that look, I am a big fan of the punishment they receive!"
"Fuck you man! I've got a knife!" The shouted in defiance,
"Then you have already lost!" Lucifer grinned, it was like shark, one who had found its prey.
