The sun started to set and Lucifer and Chloe were eagerly dragged by their children back on to the boardwalk to partake in the rides it had to offer. The twins were so excited they couldn't help running ahead of their parents eagerly towards the rides.

"Leonardo! Beatrice! Stay where I can see you!" Chloe shouted at them.

Lucifer chuckled beside her as they approached a ticket booth. Chloe turned her eyes to him.

"What's so funny?" She asked.

"You just remind me of someone else." Chloe narrowed her eyes at him.

"Who?"

"Nobody."

"Lucifer." Chloe growled at him.

"Fine. You asked for it. You sound just like your mother when you yell like that."

"I do not!" Chloe said indignantly.

"Whatever you say detective." Lucifer snickered.

Oh, Lucifer was just asking for punishment tonight and not the kinky kind.

They reached the ticket booth and Lucifer asked the teenager at the counter for a large quantity of tickets.

"These tickets all seem like so much hassle. Can't I just slip the chaps running the rides a Benjamin?" Lucifer asked him.

The teen at the counter stared at him incredulously.

"The wristbands are easier for the amount of tickets you're buying. Than you don't have to deal with the ticket book. You just show the ride operator and on you go."

"Wonderful! You've been very helpful. Four wristbands please."

The teen handed Lucifer the wristbands and Chloe dropped her face behind her hand to avoid watching their interaction. Everything with Lucifer was a spectacle and she'd be lying if she said she didn't love it. Love him.

"This is for your trouble my good man." Lucifer said as he slipped a couple of hundred dollar bills across to the teen.

The teen's eyes widened at the money.

"Oh sir! I couldn't possibly…."

"Nonsense! I insist. There must be something you want to spend it on…"

The teen nodded eagerly, completely taken in by Lucifer's charm. "Yeah, I want to pay for college."

"And this will help. Have a nice evening than. I'm off to be punished.."

The teen looked at him confused. "This is a family park sir."

"Indeed. Why else would I be here? Isn't that the greatest punishment of all?"

"Okay babe. That's enough. Let's catch up to the kids." Chloe interrupted before the line that forming behind them got any larger. They were already getting stares.

Chloe and Lucifer caught up with the twins who were brimming with excitement. Chloe wrapped their wristbands around their wrists. Trixie in particular was having a hard time standing still.

"Daddy…I wanna go on that the roller coaster and that spinny ride and the bumper cars and….oh wow!" Trixie's eyes gazed up in astonishment at the giant ferris wheel that she hadn't paid attention to before.

"What is it baby?" Chloe asked her astonished daughter.

"The big ferris wheel! I wanna go on that!"

Leo's eyes followed his sister's. "Wow! I wanna go too! Daddy will you take us?"

Lucifer's eyes followed theirs. This ride didn't seem so bad, he was naturally inclined towards heights.

But he wasn't crazy about the the tiny carts they would be going up in.

"Daddy will take you guys right now!" Chloe smirked at her husband and turned towards him. Seeing his eyes still trained on the giant wheel in front of them, Chloe nudged him with her elbow. "Lucifer." She whispered.

"Oh yes, Come along offspring. We're going to ride the giant wheel you're so enthusiastic about."

Lucifer grabbed his children's hands. They eagerly pulled at his to lead him in the direction of the ferris wheel. Lucifer remained in firmly planted in his spot. "Are you coming darling?" Lucifer turned to Chloe.

Chloe smiled at him. This would be to good to miss. "Of course."

The children pulled Lucifer towards the entrance of the ferris wheel where they flashed their wristband at the ride operator. The ride operator nodded as they approached the entrance gate. Lucifer looked incredulously at the size of the small cart that was supposed to fit four people. The children eagerly got in and Chloe followed.

"Lucifer! Come on! Don't hold up the line." Lucifer grimaced as he folded his 6 ft 3 frame into the tiny cart. When he was uncomfortably settled into his seat with his knees almost up again his chest, the ride started moving.

Extremely slowly.

The children cheered as they clamored to get the best view out of the windows on the side of the cart. Lucifer grimaced as the cart rocked left to right with the force of the children moving around.

Chloe was pretty amused by the whole experience.

The children were blissfully unaware of there strange games being played between their parents.

After a very slow ride for Lucifer and a fun-filled one for everyone else they arrived at the top of the wheel. The wheel paused as they took in the skyline surrounding the city. It was still light enough to see the ocean on one side and the small island landscape on the other. The children gasped appropriately and Lucifer saw a flash of red out of the corner of his eye. For a brief second Lucifer saw a flash of demonic like wings attached to something horse like. The creature's body looked red and almost burned.

Just as quickly as the creature appeared, it disappeared.

Wide-eyed Lucifer turned to his wife. "Did you see that?"

Chloe was busy attempting to pry Trixie's fingers off the window to allow Leo a turn at looking at the ocean. "Hmmm. See what?"

"That thing that just flew by. It reminded me of some of the creatures in hell."

Chloe darted her eyes towards him. "Ixnay on ellhay in front of the idskay. We agreed we'd tell them in a few years remember?"

Lucifer rolled his eyes. "But did you see it?"

"I don't know what you saw. I didn't see it. Is it possible that something came up from you-know-where?"

Lucifer looked contemplative. "I don't know. There aren't any….ellhay mouths open right now."

"Maybe it was the Jersey Devil." Chloe joked.

That caught Lucifer's attention. "What?"

Chloe rolled her eyes at him. "Of course that caught your attention. I'm just joking. It's just an old legend the locals tell to scare tourists so they don't go into the Pine Barrens. My dad's cousin told me when I was a little girl to scare me."

"What are these Pine Barrens?"

"Just a bunch of woods about 15 miles inland. We passed through them on the way here. Look the ride's almost over. Let's talk about this later okay? The kids want to go on the log flume next."

Having completely ignored their parents before since they were both to enraptured by the views from the ferris wheel, both kids eagerly shouted their desire to go on the log flume.

The rest of the night was quiet and actually normal, but both Lucifer and Chloe's thoughts kept lingering on the site Lucifer had seen on the ferris wheel.
