Lucifer finished telling the little story, the king of hell feared the reaction of the fallen angel, he feared that they would blame him for her fall, that because she was his replacement she was destined to fall...
"So…. Am I a morningstar?" Emily questioned, processing the situation, the last few hours have been a rollercoaster of emotions, from her fall to finding out that she was created as Lucifer's replacement.
"See for yourself." Lucifer snapped his fingers and made a book appear, it was a black book with the morningstar family symbol marked in a dark red tone in its center. "This is the book of the morningstar family, all the members of our family are in it." Lucifer said as he turned the pages quickly until finally stopping on the page that had a portrait of the king of hell, he turned a few more pages and showed the portrait of his beloved wife, finally he showed Charlie's page.
Lucifer finally closed the book. "Hopefully, one day even Vaggie will be portrayed in its pages." Lucifer said which made the princess of hell and her girlfriend blush.
"Dad, please stop." A blushing Charlie responded to her father's comment.
"I'm sorry apple." Lucifer said tenderly. "So, what do you say Emily? Do you want to find out if you're really a morningstar?" Lucifer said full of encouragement as he brought the book towards Emily.
Emily didn't know what to answer, so she looked at Charlie, the princess of hell just nodded in approval, shyly Emily took the book, as soon as she took it the symbol of the morningstar family began to shine with a red light, which which meant that Emily was part of the family.
Those present watched attentively as the book opened to reveal a blank page that was slowly filled with a portrait of Emily and a little information about her.
Lucifer smiled tenderly as he watched the scene, but a specific thought kept coming to his mind: the king of hell will not let heaven or anyone hurt what is left of his family.
The King of Hell was brought out of his thoughts when he sensed Alastor's presence outside the room, even though the radio demon being a mere human soul had unparalleled power.
The radio demon knocked on the bedroom door. "Well girls, enjoy your day, I have to go…" The king of hell said as he approached the door.
"Lucifer waits." Emily screamed in distress, Lucifer turned around to direct his gaze to the new member of his family. "There is something you should know… Sera… she ordered the exorcists to eliminate Charlie." Emily said full of concern, the room was silent for a moment, soon concern was present in the princess of hell, Vaggie could see her anger, but Lucifer remained thoughtful.
Lucifer came out of his thoughts and approached the girls to hug them. "I promise I won't let Sera or anyone else hurt you or anyone else at the hotel." Lucifer said as he calmed them down.
Lucifer finally left the room, being outside you could see his fury, Alastor decided not to ask, although he didn't have to, the radio demon and the king of hell were walking through the corridors of the hotel, finally Lucifer spoke. "This is over, heaven broke all the terms of our deal." Lucifer said annoyed.
"What do you suggest we do?" Alastor said as he followed Lucifer out of the hotel.
"Send a message to heaven." Lucifer said as he spread his wings and flew at full speed to the heavenly embassy.
And so the morningstar king sealed his fate and that of all creation, Lucifer asked for a meeting with Sera, the leader of the seraphim agreed to have a meeting with the king of hell one day before the extermination, Sera tried to delay Lucifer.
Lucifer would not sit idly waiting for the meeting with heaven, he decided to move to the Hazbin hotel, with Lucifer there things were much easier to prepare since they had Lucifer's magic at his disposal.
The king of hell also took his time to train the pair of fallen angels who resided in the hotel, Emily had as much potential as Lucifer, although she only knew how to use basic magic, she learned quickly, on the other hand, Vaggie had zero experience when it came to use his angelic powers, although with the help of Lucifer, she learned quite well. The most difficult thing for the pair of fallen angels was to master their demonic forms, the first time they both transformed they almost destroyed the hotel, luckily Lucifer managed to control them, when the day of the meeting finally approached, the fallen seraph and the retired exorcist They managed to better control that power.
But without a doubt the most difficult thing for the king of hell was teaching Charlie to unleash his full potential, the princess of hell is part angel, part human and part demon, which is something unique and the reason for all the hidden power that Charlie has. .
The princess of hell was exhausted, Lucifer approached her to check that she was okay. "You're doing well Charlie, just try to get some rest." Lucifer said as he approached his daughter.
"It's useless, i can't improve." Charlie said frustratedly, she had been trying to learn one of her father's spells to create things.
"Calm down, little apple, breathe a little." Charlie relaxed when she heard her father, she closed his eyes and took a deep breath. Charlie felt renewed, full of strength and energy, the princess of hell had used her magic to recover.
"You see, you're not doing that bad." Lucifer said encouraging his daughter. Charlie smiled as she hugged her father, it was nice that after so long they spent time together despite the circumstances.
Unfortunately the time had come, Lucifer had to attend his meeting with heaven, without wasting time the king of hell together with Alastor headed to the embassy of heaven. "I hope you know what you're doing, shorty." Alastor said as they approached the meeting.
"You calm down, hopefully I'll make them see reason." Lucifer said trying to look calm.
"We both know that won't happen." Alastor said with doubts about Lucifer's plan.
"In any case, they are all ready to defend the hotel, I just hope that you don't escape this time." The last thing Lucifer said was full of poison.
Alastor looked away, there were no sarcastic comments, witty responses or jokes, although the radio demon did not lose his smile, in his eyes you could see regret for something in his past.
Finally Lucifer and Alastor entered the celestial embassy to begin their meeting with heaven. Upon entering the room where the meeting would take place, they could see Sera and Lute waiting for their arrival.
The pair of angels made an appearance in hell, they didn't use holograms like the last meeting between Adam and Charlie. When Lucifer entered, Adam's absence seemed strange to him but he preferred not to mention anything about it.
"Welcome Lucifer and Alister?" Sera said welcoming the king of hell and the radio demon, the leader of the seraphim mispronounced Alastor's name in an attempt to provoke him.
"You better stop being stupid if you don't want it to devour your souls." Alastor threatened as he used his staff to make a pair of black tentacles appear.
"It seems that the radio idiot wants revenge." Lute said pointing his sword at Alastor as she spread her wings. Alastor just made a noise of static.
"You better control that damn deer." Sera said with annoyance in her voice.
"This time, he's right Sera, let's get this over with." Lucifer said, although the king of hell was planning to negotiate, at this point he was tired and decided that it was better to end his deal with heaven once and for all.
"Well, we can renew our agreement, we just ask that you not get involved with the extermination." Sera said as she made a contract appear for her and Lucifer to sign.
"Who talked about renewing the agreement?" Lucifer said with annoyance in his voice. "Let me tell you something Sera, I am not going to renew our agreement, from now on if you send your exorcists I will personally fight them." The king of hell declared as he slammed the table, Sera was about to question his decision when Lucifer spoke again.
"My position is not negotiable Sera, you broke the terms I set last time, the first one, not to kill the hellborns and it turns out that she gave the order to do it." Lucifer said as he pointed at Lute. "The second, no more fallen angels, what happened? In less than half a century two angels fell." Lucifer's fury was beginning to come out. "The third, you would let Lilith enjoy the sky and what happened?, Tell me." Lucifer shouted as he shed some tears.
"Not to mention I almost got murdered in the process." The radio demon complained, Sera looked away while Lute kept an arrogant smile on her face.
"You don't even have the courage to say what they did." Lucifer was about to explode, but there was still one last thing he had to say. "And not happy with that, you dared to break the last of my terms, you threatened to kill Charlie, the last thing I have left of my family, you decided to put it in danger." Lucifer said entering his demonic form, the morningstar king's fury was more than intense.
"Think what you do Lucifer, use your head." Sera said with annoyance in her voice.
"I told you Sera that we had to kill Emily's scum." Lute said complaining to Sera, this was the final straw, Lucifer would not tolerate this anymore.
"I will give you only one warning, if you dare to touch another inhabitant of hell, I will personally go up and kick your angelic asses until you beg dad to exterminate me," Lucifer said as he prepared a fireball on the palm of his hand and Alastor summoned his shadow tentacles.
"I hope they are smart enough to not dare to come down tomorrow." Lucifer said preparing to attack. Sera realized this and began to open a portal back to heaven, while Lute prepared to fight. "This is the end of our deal." Lucifer said as he threw the fireball towards the angels, while Alastor used his tentacles to attack.
Lute was about to attack the king of hell and the radio demon but was stopped by Sera, the seraph pulled Lute along with her to cross the portal and leave hell, narrowly avoiding the attacks.
Lucifer let out a sigh, relaxing a little, adrenaline coursing through his body, processing what he had just done, but one thought worried him like no other, the fear that something would happen to Charlie or Emily.
Although the king of hell had great power, he could not trust himself and if he was not fast enough? He would have to defend the hotel, fight with Adam and take care of Charlie and Emily, he could not be in so many places at the same time and He also couldn't forgive himself if something happened to them.
"You'll run away tomorrow won't you?" Lucifer questioned as he turned his back to Alastor.
Alastor raised an eyebrow, he wasn't sure what the king of hell was talking about. "I do not know what are you talking about".
"You'll run away the same way you did when that happened with Lilith right?" Lucifer questioned again.
The sinner remained silent, he did not say a single word. "Damn it Alastor, answer the question, will you run away tomorrow?" Lucifer said desperately, afraid of what could happen tomorrow, it got to the point where he made Alastor's chain appear.
"I won't do it, I will defend the hotel, I will defend the guests, I will defend Charlie, until my last breath." The radio demon never lost his smile, even though Lucifer pulled his chain harder than ever.
"You lie". Lucifer shouted. "How do I know it's true? and that you don't say it just because I pull your chain." Lucifer said as he pulled even harder on the chain of the sinner he had at his mercy.
"Why would I lie? I have never kneeled before you even if you possess my soul." Alastor said as he felt the strength of the king of hell, despite that, he simply closed one eye slightly from the pain. "Destroy my soul if I don't keep my word, if necessary I will show heaven why it shouldn't mess with us." Alastor began to use his magic to pull his chain himself.
Lucifer did not say another word, he simply frowned as he increased the force with which he pulled the radio demon's chain. Alastor, for his part, felt pain like no other, but he never gave in, he stood firm, using magic of every type to resist. "Come on, take my soul Lucifer." The radio demon said as a golden light blinded him.
For a moment Alastor thought it was over, that Lucifer would destroy his soul for the mistake of his past, little by little the light faded, Alastor managed to see how Lucifer was holding a contract that burned almost immediately, the radio demon felt how Lucifer pulled the chain one last time, somehow harder than before, but suddenly he stopped feeling it.
Alastor was confused, he didn't understand what happened, he took a quick look and finally realized, his chain, his chain was broken, it was no longer attached to Lucifer, little by little it was fading until it disappeared completely. "You are free, get the hell out." Lucifer said as he approached the door to leave the meeting room.
Alastor had a genuine smile on his face, it was still as gloomy as ever but it was genuine, he made a quick movement with his staff before disappearing into the shadows.
Lucifer continued on his way, left the heavenly embassy and flew towards the hotel. The king of hell had arrived at the main entrance of the hotel. He could hear Charlie giving his speech to encourage the army that would defend the hotel...
Lucifer was about to enter but he stopped, he had a small smile on his face as he sensed a presence that he knew.
"Did you think you'd get rid of me so easily?" Alastor mocked as he extended a hand to Lucifer.
"I didn't think I'd say this, but, it's good to have you here Alastor." Lucifer said shaking the radio demon's hand.
"It has been an amazing thrill to witness these wayward souls find connection. I have to admit that she has made me remember my humanity." The radio demon said as he entered the hotel with Lucifer.
Luck was in the air, the extermination would be in a few hours, but they were ready to face the challenge ahead, the hazbin hotel, no, hell would not be trampled this time, everything will be fine, right? Right? everything will be fine, right?...
Meanwhile, in heaven...
Sera and Lute were back in heaven after the disastrous meeting, barely escaping Lucifer and Alastor's attack in time. "Why didn't you let me finish them off right there? Together we could have killed them right there. What's the plan now?" Lute said as she walked next to Sera, the leader of the seraphim was thoughtful, she considered her options and finally spoke.
"The plan? The plan continues, I just changed the objective." Sera said sternly,
"You don't want us to kill the pathetic princess anymore?" Lute asked.
"Oh of course not, now I want you to kill Lucifer." Sera said as she led Lute through the halls of the sky court.
"Will I have to inform Adam of the change of plans? And how the fuck am I supposed to murder Lucifer?" Lute questioned as she followed Sera closely.
"Adam? That poor mortal soul will soon not matter and you will be in charge." Sera said as she opened a room that was locked. "And how will you kill Lucifer? ha ha". Sera laughed as she opened the doors to the room. "I have a better question for you, what weapon do you want to kill him with?" Sera said as she revealed the collection of highest level celestial weaponry.
Lute had a smile on her face as she contemplated her possibilities, tomorrow she would be the one to show him hell because they should be afraid of heaven….
