Disclaimer: There's a couple of ways this could go but the one you're gonna see here is what I'm going with. Crossover with the Prophecy films and Lucifer, though that second part of things won't be appearing here just yet. But in this timeline, the events of the first three Prophecy films takes place from the 70's to the 90's with Lucifer becoming the uhh… Mellow guy he is in the show. I was gonna wait til after I finished watching Lucifer on Netflix, but I decided to go ahead and do this now.
Summary: Tommy learns of a surprising fact about his parentage.
Several Days After The Undertaking
A loud gasp filled the room as one Tommy Merlyn awoke and sat up instantly. "H-How!?" Asked the dark haired man in confusion as he was pretty damned sure he had died in CNRI thanks to that damned rebar.
And since he felt pretty damn weak, Tommy was certain he wasn't dead and in Heaven. Or worse, Hell. Which, for all he knew, would make him feel weak considering the kind of place it is. "Oh good, you're finally awake. Never really quite sure how long it takes your kind to wake up after the death of their mortal selves."
The voice startled Tommy and he fell off the table he'd been on. "Who… Who's there!?" Wondered the Merlyn Scion fearfully.
He could hear a sigh and footsteps, footsteps that the fearful young man tried to back away from but found that to be harder then he liked. A man soon appeared in front of him, an older looking man at that dressed in what Tommy would think of as a homeless man's general outfit, complete with a dark colored trench coat and long greying hair. "Relax, I'm not gonna hurt you, kid."
"In fact, I'm here to help you." Added the man as he reached down and pulled Tommy up.
Causing him to groan. "H-Help? How? Like taking me to where my mom is?"
Please, for the love of everything, may it be that! "You're not dead. Well, not anymore."
This only confused Tommy a great deal, and it didn't help when he was placed in a chair right in front of a table that had all manner of food on it. "What the Hell?"
"Eat, kid. Comin' back from the dead requires a lot of energy to heal from the cause of your death where your kind are concerned. And food is how you get that going." Informed the mystery man gently.
Plus, with how he had died, the man knew the kid had already made use of quite a bit of energy just to return to a state of normalcy where his body was concerned after having a building fall on him. Still confused but finding himself damned hungry, Tommy quickly began to eat as much as he could from the selection on the table. Slightly wondering how a homeless man like the guy next to him could afford all this. Finally, once he had his fill, a loud belch escaped him. "Excuse me."
"I'd say it was well deserved, kid."
"Maybe… But who the Hell are you and how am I even alive right now!? That rebar killed me!"
"Oh, it did, even if it hadn't, that building you were stuck in would have definitely done the job thanks to it crushing you." Came the blunt reply.
Shocking Tommy considerably and making him feel faint! "I… I feel like I'm gonna puke."
The man shook his head and handed him an empty bucket that was quickly filled as the mystery man gave a look of disgust. Once that was finished and the bucket was taken far from where they were, things got back down to business. "Now, as for who I am? I'm Gabriel, an Angel of the Lord and you, kid, are the end result of a human and an Angel sleeping together, not that my brother knows that anyway. Which makes you what we call a Nephilim."
Tommy scoffed at the clearly insane man's claims. "Yeah, right. As much as I would LOVE to believe I'm NOT the son of a pyschopath like Malcolm, I know that's not possible. Same for Angels and all that crap. And how the Hell could an Angel not know he's a father?"
"Well… Lucifer had, to my knowledge, just discovered how much he enjoyed sleeping around with Humans after despising them for millenia. Stands to reason he wouldn't know but in a few years time we can reach out to him about that. I'm sure it'll be the funniest thing ever to see his reaction." Gabriel told him with a shrug and a grin on his face.
Picturing the reaction his brother would have to that bombshell! Tommy just stared at him in pure disbelief. "My… My supposed real dad is the Devil!? The Ruler of Hell and causer of Sins or whatever!? Give me a break! You know what? I'm outta here!"
He had to get back to Laurel, to Speedy, to Oliver, if only to hit him hard in the face for obviously lying about killing his crazy ass father before going off for a much needed drink! But before he could get very far, Gabriel called out to him. "You might want to see this before you run out of here, kid." Said the Angel and making Tommy stop in his tracks.
A slight fluttering could be heard and when Tommy reluctantly looked back, his eyes went wide as literal WINGS of all things came out of the man's back. His long dark colored trench coat or shirt no longer present. "H-Holy Hell..." Whispered the young man in pure shock as he fell to his knees.
Barely able to handle what he was seeing right in front of him! "Eh, more like Holy Heaven, but I'll let it pass this time." Joked the Angel.
Author's Notes: Once Tommy came to accept the truth of things, he would spend the next few years fighting alongside Team Arrow and learning from Gabriel and another Nephilim known as Danyael. Allowing for the events of Lucifer to happen as they did until after season 3, which would then allow for him to show up and reveal himself. If anyone wants to take a crack at this, be my guest. Though it would probably be good to have watched the Prophecy films. Though ignore 4 and 5 as they are pretty much unrelated to the first three films and aren't as great.
