Chapter 9:
Back in the year, 1820 Lucifer was walking up and down the cave, like a caged animal. He was worried sick about Chloe and Victoria. Diego was keeping himself busy with brushing Toronado, it helped him not to think what could happen to Victoria.
Diego hated it to be helpless like this.
"Did you come up with a plan?" Diego asked when he noticed that Lucifer stood in front of Toronado's stable.
"I do. I know just the sister to call to help us out of this one." Lucifer said before he continued, "We need to go to the spot where you first saw what I am."
Diego nodded, "alright, no time to lose. Let me inform Felipe to make sure Toronado isn't forgotten."
This time it was Lucifer's time to nod, "What are you going to tell your father?" the devil asked curiously.
"My father isn't here for another week, I hope we would find them by then." Diego sighed deeply. The more he thought about it the more he feared for the women's lives.
They both walked through the secret door the moment Felipe came around the corner.
"Felipe, I know this is going to sound weird but I need to go and safe Victoria and Chloe in the future." Diego said as calm as he possibly could, "If I am not back within the week hide Esperanza and say that I am on a trip to the port of San Pedro. We can't tell father the truth about all of this. Please take care of Toronado is my absence."
"The future?" Felipe signed looking at him like Diego had grown an extra head.
"There is no time to fully explain everything but one of Lucifer's brothers has Kidnapped Chloe and Victoria and took them to the future in front of our eyes. That's all I can explain right now. You will get a full explanation once she is safe." Diego said
"Can't I help and go with you?" Felipe sighed.
Diego shook his head "No, I need you here to take care of Toronado while I am gone."
"Will Zorro be traveling with you?" Felipe signed still confused.
Diego shook his head, "The only thing I will take with me is my sword. It isn't a good idea to run around masked in the future."
"How will you get there and how did his brother manage to send them to the future? Is Lucifer a male witch?" Felipe couldn't stop asking questions. He couldn't believe what Diego was telling him but on the other side, Diego never lied to him.
"I can't explain just yet, Felipe but I promise you will get the full story once I am back," Diego said becoming impatient.
"If I am right, then they will send them back to my timeline. Maybe we could take Trixie with us that way she is already home again." Lucifer said suddenly.
Diego looked at Lucifer, "What will happen when we found them?"
"I will personally bring you back home." Lucifer smiled. He only hoped that Azrael would want to help him.
Diego nodded afraid for the very first time in his life, "Go get little Beatrice." Diego said to Felipe.
Felipe nodded and only a few minutes later he arrived with Trixie behind him.
"Did you found mommy, Lucifer?" Trixie asked
Lucifer sighed and crouch down in front of the little girl he started to love so much, "Yes, my little hellfire but my brother took them away again, we were just a few minutes too late. Michael sends them back to 2019 so I am going to call my sister and ask her to help me out and go back home."
"What about Victoria? Is Don Diego coming with us to save her?" Trixie asked.
"Yes, he will be coming with us. I will bring them back afterward." Lucifer said patiently.
"Oh, Lucifer can I come with you then?" Trixie asked looking at him with her puppy eyes.
"We will see what your mother says about it later, alright?" Lucifer said softly
Trixie nodded her head.
"Now of we go, we lost time enough," Lucifer said.
"We will go through the cave, that way I can take my sword with me," Diego whispered to the both of them.
Lucifer and Trixie both nodded and followed Diego through the secret door behind the fireplace.
It took only ten minutes to reach the spot where Diego first saw Lucifer's wings.
Lucifer sighed before he closed his eyes and pressed his hands together to pray.
It didn't take long or a small woman appeared with short black hair.
"hi Lu, long time no see. What are you doing at this time and who are those humans, you know better than to tell people about us."
"First of all, hello to you too, Azrael. These are Don Diego and Beatrice, Chloe's daughter. and secondly, you start to sound like Amenadiel." Lucifer groaned before he continued "Rae-Rae, this is our brother's doing. Michael sent us here and now he kidnapped Chloe and senorita Escalante and send them to our time. Can you help us please." Lucifer said.
"Where is your sword, Lu?" Azrael asked
"Hidden in the wall of my penthouse but I can't inflame it anymore," Lucifer said
"Just think about time and cut a hole in the plane. Just like Michael did." Azrael responded.
"How can I use it if I don't have it." Lucifer groaned
"I thought you would say something like that, so the moment I knew you were sent back in time I took the privilege to bring the sword with me." Azrael laughed
"Azrael this isn't funny." Lucifer groaned.
"Sorry, Lucifer. See you soon." Azrael said before she disappeared again.
"Who was that, Lucifer?" Trixie asked curiously.
"Well, my little hellion, that was my sister, Azrael. She is the angel of death."
LUCIFER/ZORRO
Victoria started crying softly in Chloe's embrace.
"What's wrong Victoria?" Chloe asked stroking the young woman through the dark hair.
"I only regret the way I acted towards Diego in the past and now I may never have the chance to say to him that I love him more than I love Zorro," Victoria said.
Chloe swallowed this wasn't her secret to tell. The fact that Victoria was here and not in her own time with Diego was a disaster. She hoped that Lucifer would find a way to bring her back with the man she loved so much.
"Victoria, you know what, you are going to tell him when we get out of here," Chloe said.
"If we get out of here! Who is going to save us, my hope was always Zorro but I don't know how I to survive this one." Victoria said between her sobs
"Keep hoping, there is someone very special in his corner. Michael underestimates his brother." Chloe smiled.
Victoria wiped away her tears. Could she hope that the devil would help her?
Chloe saw the disbelief in her eyes and smiled, "Lucifer will come for us."
