Chapter 115
[A/N: It feels super weird when people say awesome to the chapter where my favorite character is burning. *Cries*]
Father stood up, with great difficulty. Michael was by his side in an instant, giving him support to get up.
The wings were soon turning into ashes, and though it was extremely painful, he couldn't seem to wipe that sad smile off of his face. It was too late.
"Son..." Father breathed, and tried to touch him, but Lucifer had to back off.
"Do not forget Father..." He said, the tears finally making a streak down his face, "I am untouchable now."
The words seemed to echo in the clouds, until Gabriel couldn't take it anymore and was now openly crying tears of blood.
"Brother..." Lucifer turned towards his brother, who was shaking with plight, "This was supposed to happen. You know that. Stop crying."
"I..." Father tried to find his voice, as he knew the moment the wings were completely burnt; the fire would start on his body.
"I cannot do this..." Father managed to choke out.
"Yes, you can." Lucifer tried to instill his Father with some of the courage he was uncharacteristically feeling.
"Ask for what you want... I'll give it to you, Son." Father had tears flowing in his eyes, and the sadness that despair brought with it.
"I want to burn forever."
