Chapter 8! My muse is back, baby!
Chapter 8: Lilith, the Eldest Demon
Ichigo's POV
"Yo, Karyushima!" I look over as Renji lopes over to me.
"S'up?"
"Have you seen your girlfriend?"
I raise an eyebrow, curios. "No. What's wrong?"
"She's acting sad again. Like she misses someone."
I start racking my brain for any person or creature that she hasn't seen in a long time. Suddenly it hits me. "Lilith. She misses Lilith."
"Who?"
"Lilith, the first demon, and Luna's first love."
"What?!"
"Yeah, it doesn't seem possible, does it? It would be a very odd relationship, a demon and an archangel. That's why Michael ended it."
"How?"
"He cast her out of heaven, and that's when Luna fell in love with Ichimaru and me. But that wasn't for ten years. She vowed that if she were to ever find Lilith again she would try to make amends. She wouldn't ever leave us, but we may have to share her with another."
Verion's POV
I smile at the girl in my class, Orihime, and she smiles back. She slides into the seat beside me outside of the school with a clumsy tinged grace. Then she looks dead into my eyes, and I see something strange. Something demonic. And something familiar.
"Lilith?"
"Hello, Verion. Where's Luna?" Orihime's beautiful grey eyes turn blood red as the demon within her stares at me.
"Flying. Where's Orihime?"
"Still here. I own her now. She sold her soul to me so she could be your boyfriend. She likes you very much little archangel."
"Give her soul back to me Lilith!"
"Then I want your sister!"
"You know you cannot have her!"
She shrieks, grabbing me around the throat. "She was mine! He took her away from me! I want her back!" She takes a deep breath and lets me go. "If I get her back, I'll withdraw all of the demons running amok, and I'll give your back Orihime. I just want my lover back."
"She's moved on."
Lilith bares Orihime's teeth as she growls. "Who is she with?"
"Ichigo and Ichimaru Karyushima."
Orihime's head falls into her hands, and I can hear sobs. "She gave up on me?"
"It took ten years."
She bites Orihime's bottom lip and cries out before calming down again. "I will have her again." With a soft pop, Orihime and Lilith are gone.
