In the last chapter we left off with The prince of Hell Azazel invading Adrian's home after being summoned by John to avenge Mary Winchester but before we get into the next chapter I would like to address something.
I read one of the reviews about how Adrian acted shocked when Azazel invaded. I have my reasoning's for that. For those who have seen Supernatural when Sam and Dean got to the men of letters bunker. Asmodeus another prince of hell was able to bypass its warding. Albeit it was far weaker after being brutalized by a primordial force.
Adrian had help with the warding by a goddess of magic on par with an Archangel so it would make sense that even with Azazel being summoned he should have had some issues getting inside, hence his surprise. I also want to respond to a comment I got from a pm on why the gods are so strong. In this universe gods are tied to a specific aspect. If they are important such as Hecate being a fundamental being of magic, Odin being a god of sorcery, or Apollo being a god of the sun etc, they don't need worship to maintain their strength. Now lets get into the the chapter.
I made to get up off the ground when I felt a hand on my shoulder try to pull me up..
I immediately made to react with magic until I felt Hecate's presence..
"Adrian we need to get out of here!" The goddess yelled.
"Not without my family!" I insisted.
"You stupid boy! Your family is the reason Azazel's here and you want to try and rescue them?!" Hecate demanded.
"John I could give a damn about. But Sam and Dean? They were at least willing to try and be brothers to me. I wont leave them to die!" I said.
I made to turn down the hall but Hecate yanked me back so that I faced her.
"Adrian listen! That is hellfire! If it touches you nothing is going to put it out! Nothing but divine water! If it touches you I wont be able to help!" Hecate warned.
"I looked into the ancient goddesses eyes and said I'm prepared to take that risk."
She nodded and said "Good luck" As she turned away she quickly pecked me on the cheek before flashing away..
I blinked twice quickly shocked before steeling my nerves..
"Alright Azazel you son of a bitch, Summoned or not no demon is hurting my family!" I said firmly.
I strode forward and began the hunt from room to room..
"Sam! Dean!" I called!
"Adrian! We're out here!" Sam called.
"Thank gods you guys got out safe!" I breathed.
"I wouldn't call us safe when we're held at hell-hound point kiddo." Dean said nervously.
I looked around and realized he was right, there were at least two hell-hounds for each of us.."Well I guess Azazel came prepared." I chuckled.
"You're damn right I did kid." A deep voice said chuckling.
A dark skinned man came walking slowly through the flames engulfing what used to be the kitchen holding Johns severed head in one hand and the colt in the other…
"Oh shit." I said simply.
"Dad!" Dean yelled!
"Sorry Deano but Johns downstairs as we speak doing the hellfire samba! Poor bastard thought he could go a round with me and he lost just like so many others! Though I guess I do owe him, I never would have found out he had another kid otherwise." Azazel smirked.
To my extreme surprise I found myself enraged at how he spoke about John, as if he didn't matter. As if he were just a bug on a windshield..
Against my will my magic came to the forefront my eyes glowing a vibrant sapphire and before I knew it I had thrown a blast of pure magic at Azazel knocking him back a few feet..
Well consider me surprised Winchester. I didn't think you would be capable of doing that to one of the verses strongest demons at this point. Even enraged. Maybe its just because you caught him off guard. Izanami mused.
Sam stared at me shocked. Holy crap Adrian, you hurt him. You actually hurt him. He said.
The ancient demon got to his feet laughing..
"No he didn't Sammy boy. Though I will admit that stung a bit. He caught me off guard. That aint happened in a long time!" Azazel said.
"So you think it was a fluke you piece of demonic shit?! See if you think this is funny!" I growled.
"Attenuare!" I chanted shooting the weakening spell I remembered from my last life..
However to my chagrin Azazel batted the spell aside like nothing.
"That all you got? A half assed weakening spell? You're good with magic brat but that spell didn't have any where near enough heart in it to hurt me." Azazel smirked.
"Iostrego Arcano!" I said shooting a blast of lightning at the demon.
Azazel's eyes widened slightly but he just caught the lightning before shooting it back twice as fast hitting me in the chest sending me flying into the wall once more..
"I think that's enough. You're tapped out. The gods you worship might be stronger then me but I was around when most of them were in their swaddling cloths kid. You aint a threat to me just yet. But you could be if you live. Which is why I cant let ya. It aint personal." Azazel said.
"Lady Hecate,Lord Cronus. The warding is down. Get us out of here!" I prayed.
An instant before Azazel's foot hit my neck all three of us vanished in a flash of light…
On mount othrys..
We were deposited on the floor of the titans throne room in a tangled heap where I lay curled…
"Lelanatos Call Apollo see if he can make a house call for a mortal. I need to have a chat with these two." The titan king said stone-faced.
This ends another chapter. And yes I know it was a bit short but when our hero was against a force he couldn't hope to beat what do you expect? Hes lucky he got out. I want to sincerely apologize for not uploading for a while. I have had a lot of issues going on. And its been hard. I am going to be uploading more. That I promise.
