"Where are you Mr. demon? I've come back to make sure you don't kill anyone, because the people solving it would be a bit confused, and confusion always turns into frustration. Don't want that, so COME ON, come fight me. I am quite ready for round two. Let's finish this off, once and for all. If I win, you'll go back to Hell. If you win… well you can do what you decide. You know that I don't lie." Lucifer was going to use himself as bait, knowing the demon wouldn't back out of a fight with the devil. Zermoni especially loved to make a deal amongst how he fights.
"Anything?" Zermoni came up from behind him, a few feet away, keeping distance just a little bit.
"I said that, yes. So what will you do to me IF you win?" Lucifer had faith in himself, thinking he would win.
Knowing his weak spot was a plus. Lucifer also knew that he knocked some energy out of him.
"IF I win then you'll be forced to leave me alone and go back to Hell. Where you deserve to be, because you will never be worthy of anyone. Not your human, or siblings, OR Father, no-one. Deal?" Zermoni held out a hand with pride, the fight was going to begin after the handshake, so Lucifer shook it, offended by what Zermoni said, but held it in. Reminding himself that he mustn't show a weakness whatsoever.
They both stepped back, and fought. Lucifer punched him on his arm, kicking him in between his legs, tripping Zermoni, making his legs slide beneath him. Kicking him in the face, and waiting for him to get back up.
Zermoni got up, going for a punch but Lucifer dodged it, catching his hand, and picking him up with one swift move, dropping him on his back.
Sitting on Zermoni's stomach, hitting him on his face until his hand stung, giving Zermoni the chance to roll Lucifer over, making him now on top. Putting his hand in a fist and using force to hit his face, but Lucifer grabbed his hand. Rolling Zermoni over, but not him. He stood up, knowing that Zermoni was losing, until he brought out his sword.
"Really?! That's like the expression 'bringing a knife to a g-woah." Lucifer ducked as the sword swifted above his head. Making a Swoosh noise with the speed as it cuts the air.
Both were now breathing heavily, as they became exhausted, tired.
Zermoni swung the sword, but Lucifer slid to the left, inches from the blade, as it was close to grazing his shoulder.
The Devil saw a human from the corner of his eyes, struggling to grab his phone. Probably to call the cops, quite distracting.
The demon then made the sword go straight forward, aiming for Lucifer's chest, but it went a little downward. Stabbing his stomach, causing him to scream with the agony and pain of it. The sword had tiny sharp blades-spikes really-which had a certain oil gained from Hell. The oil on the blade alone was enough to kill thousands, luckily Lucifer was immortal.
Zermoni twisted the blade as it was still in between his rib cage. He fell to his knees, mouth slightly opened, longing for air instead of it becoming thinner, knowing he was defeated. Lucifer had almost enough to say something.
"Y-you shook on it though. Killing me wasn't a part of the deal." A tear rolled down the Devil's face, but he wouldn't give up, for now.
"I did, but have you ever known of something called a lie? Remember how this can wipe you out of existence." He was quite prideful in what he'd done.
He grunted as he brought himself up, punching Zermoni's face, just enough to make him let go of the weapon. Lucifer took it out of him, using it for his use now. Killing Zermoni, stabbing him in the heart.
Another tear rolled down his cheek.
That demon was one of his favorites, and now he was dead because of him, just like Dear old Uriel. Body turned cold, and then into dust. Flying away as a breeze came by.
Lucifer brought his wings out and used the rest of the little strength he had to fly to the penthouse. Hoping to say a goodbye or two. Sword still in hand.
His feet landed on the balcony's floor, opening the door to the inside.
"C-Chloe." He saw Chloe downing a bottle of tequila but set it down as she heard his voice, very raspy and quiet but still heard. His eyes were falling, hard to keep them open, and him alive.
"I'm…I'm sorry." She looked at him, gazing into his eyes with fear and panic. She finally ran to him. Helping them both see how eachother felt, by looking in their eyes.
Chloe was scared, concerned, panicked, taking quick breaths, making it hard to breath.
Lucifer felt bad for Chloe, exhausted, tired, guilty, scared, hurt, and very pain-filled. Still seconds away from his death, not caring to hold pressure onto the wound as he was bleeding out.
Feeling breathless, light-headed, dizzy, all of a sudden. Effects you would expect from a blade like this.
He fell to his knees again, dropping the sword, becoming the only sound in the room. His traitorous body was giving out on him.
Trying to figure out what to say to her, as she witnessed his terrible death.
"I'm sorry, but h-he can't hurt anyone now. I-I love you. I'm sorry." He said, speaking the truth as they were gazing into each other's eyes.
"You'll survive, so stop saying sorry. You don't need to be. You killed him and that's all that matters. I can save you, just stay awake, okay? God, just stay awake. You're okay, I promise." She spoke softly, reassuringly.
He became more calm, making it more easy for his eyes to fall, resulting in him taking comfort in his closed eyes, then causing his death. Gone, without Chloe.
His vision was closing in on him, seeing black from afar. Only seeing the Detective now, but then she disappeared as well.
Now seeing light, feeling the warmth of Chloe's hug, as she went forward to hug him, or at least he thought so. He felt his eyes fall, non-able to open them.
Feeling forever stuck with the emotions he felt in his death, or maybe his death. Exhaustion, tired, hurt, and guilty, but relaxed as the physical pain went away.
Author's comment/review:
I can assure you the story isn't over so quickly. The next chapter will come out in a few days, unlikely more than that. Please review how you felt on the fight and round two with Zermoni, that can help me as a writer. I know that in the show, only one weapon can wipe a celestial from existence but I wanted to have a bit of fun with the character that I've made up.
I hope you liked the new character, who is now lying dead (RIP Zermoni) on Earth.
I'd like to thank every one of you for reading this, and the next chapters that are coming out soon. At first, I was going to end it, but now I want the story to go on with you guys as motivation to keep me going. So in the story, it won't end until about a year/two years for Lucifer, most likely A LOT more, if I add the character that I want to.
