The 9th Circle of Hell
My cage is like a glass box, and I pace, my hands blackened from attempting to break out. I've had no word from anyone, and Loss is currently in Heaven, trying to break down the gates. Through my pacing, I can see the black flames burning bright, and if I keep looking, I'll go blind. Lucifer only stepped into my cage once, not saying anything, but looking at me, as if I had secrets he was trying to unravel. I stared back, and then he was back out of the door, hearing the click of a lock sliding back in place. I have no idea what they're going to do to me. The waiting is what's killing me, and I can feel my stomach sink in like I swallowed stones. My wings drape behind me, useless, and I continue to pace. I have no sense of time down here, so I could be here for hours or days, but one day, the door slams open, and Satan steps in, followed by Lucifer behind him. They're giving me cold looks, and shivers run up and down my spine. I don't let them see that I'm afra

War on Heaven (trapped in Hell)
They seem to hold me in the building that doesn't exist, Lucifer and Satan invested on the war that's going on. When they ignore my pacing, I stand off behind them, watching the battle rage on in Heaven. Now and then, Lucifer pays attention to me, and it's the kind where I feel brainwashed by his beauty. A sort of forced craving comes upon me, as I wonder what he'd look like out of clothes. Probably brighter than any star or sun created. I inwardly curse myself and go back to pacing, planning and overthinking. And occasionly looking at the black slab, as the battle continues. Loss is what catches my eye the most; he's like his own army, moving fast, and cutting through weapons that are made of heavenly divine weapons while he uses devilcrafted swords and so forth. I catch myself more than once admiring the bulge of his biceps as his body tenses and then braces itself against the opponents attacks, how one swipe of a sword shreds his shirt, and I can see

Dropped
They wasted no time, opening a portal underneath us, and the sensation of falling hit me. We landed in Heaven, and I caught myself, trying not to bash my face in. As I righted myself, I saw Lucifer, Satan, and the Devil rush at the silver gates. Loss was instantly by my side, and he pulled me into a tight hug. I yelped, as my damaged wing was moved. He let me go, straightening it out before I could react, and my nails dug into his arms, my teeth clenched hard together. You started this. Everyone froze as the ground shook, the voice so deep, it couldn't be heard with our ears, but be precieved with our minds. A hand of light and stars appeared, and my vision swam as it reached down and grabbed me. Loss jumped in between us, but it scorched his mid-section, and he cried out before dropping to the ground. "LOSS!" I screamed, trying to reach out for him, but the hand is grabbing me, and I'm being pulled away, the gates closing as I'm pulled inside. I catch t

The sad reality
Loss's POVLoss gasped out, almost head-butting Lucifer, as he felt like he had been shoved off a cliff. He didn't know where he was at nor did he care; he had to find a way to help Josie. As he moved, pain sparked in his chest area, and he clenched his teeth. Lucifer pushed him back down on the soft mattress, steadying Loss. "Easy there speedy. You can't just be moving around all willy-nilly. You were struck by God's Holiness. You're going to need time to recover from that." Lucifer said, as he backed up and a girl stepped forward, rubbing a thick salve like substance on his wound. Loss flinched, but relaxed as a cold numbness rushed over him, and he laid back down. "We have to save Josie." Loss said, feeling a sense of drowsiness come over him. Lucifer arched an eyebrow, but said nothing as he stepped out of the way of the girl. "About that, we have no idea where God could have taken her. Satan thinks that like Hell, Heaven might have a circle of Divine no o

A hidden truth
I sit waiting again, and draw circles on the floor. I've grown use to the shocks, and my body barely flinches at them now. Heavy footsteps shake the ground the way an earthquake would, and I peer up, feeling nerves and fear sharpen my eyesight. It's who I think it is, and the stars making his existence seem more peacful than he is. You are strange one. Possibly one of my creations, but there's something different about you from the others. Something that I can't quite place. I didn't know what to say; imagine having the almighty God question if he made you or not. He reaches in, plucking me back in his hand. I don't struggle to be freed, as I know it's no point. His touch is icy cold; for some reason I thought he would be warmer. And God is a giant-giant; I can't see his face due to the clouds always covering it. God walks along the mirror waters, the fog smelling like honeysuckle. Despite being in here for I don't even know how long, I still don't know w

The lost wife
I am unsure of what is going to happen. The temple is quiet out of nowhere, a quietness that feels like it had blanketed over sound. My eyes dart around nervously, and I listen and wait. I summon her by offering her something she made. God tells me, and he pulls out a small dagger, small for him, the size of a van to me. Your blood is what will bring her back to me. He says, and he grabs my hand, extending my right arm. I'm panicking then, trying to pull back. I have so many questions to ask, and he hasn't answered a single one. God grabs me firmly, and I can hear the creak of my bones, as they're getting ready to snap. Not only that, his holiness is burnig my forearm a bit, and it feels like waves of ice and heat are pouring onto me. The temple quakes, catching our attention. None of my blood has been spilled, and we see a ladybug about the size of a volleyball fly in, encrusted with silver and gold. It's ruby eyes blink at the both of us, taking in the

Will she arise...
The temple of Ash is quiet as I sit in the middle. I am alone for the first time, my hands flat on the floor, my eyes closed. I've been sitting here waiting for something to happen. God hasn't returned back from wherever he went, and his wife has stayed silent since telling me that I could choose or not to drip my blood in her temple, and let her rise again. The choice was mine. I had alot of questions, but I didn't think that she would have the answers. I wanted to ask God why he was trying to bring her back. Would he bring back her temples, her place of worship? What was he thinking? I murmured some curse words, running my hands through my hair. It was getting tiresome not knowing what to do. Or having the ability to do something but not know if what I was doing was right or not. I stared down at my hands and wished Loss was here. I remember the first night I had been here, he had entered my body with his soul, assuring me that everything was going to be

The one that's crossed
He didn't see her coming. Didn't know that the lower being would actually do it. Since the creature wasn't made by him, he couldn't make her see reason; she was defiant, justified, and stubborn. Just like his wife. When the grounds shook, and her temple was dusted by ash, God held his breath. And sure enough, there she was. The statue that he had never seen rising up from the ground, and then moving. Even from the distance, he could see her beauty. The same woman he had fallen in love with. She looked like she hadn't aged a day, the same glow she had that always surrounded her when she walked anywhere. When God had first seen her, he knew she was the one. He was right, but oh how she challenged him. Asherah had so many ideas, and so many creatures she wanted to try her hand at that just didn't match the idea in God's head. And though she was more into creating the plant life, and such, it was when she created some human life that God had put his foot down.

The chaos on earth
The earth is running down as climate changes happen everywhere. In some places, the sun goes down, and never sets bak up, in other places the sun staying up to the point where no one knows what day it is. Ocean waves flood into the land, drowning land creautres and humans alike. The earth has cracked in certain areas, lave spilling free, and moving at a snail's pace, yet it still moves. Fear is strong, as the humans wait and cry out for someone to save them.Josie's POVWe look to Asherah, who has a blank expression on her face. She turns to the both of us, opening up a portal. "Time to go." she says, and before we can say anything, a crash hits hard, and the temple finally breaks down. Asherah tries not to feel effected by her last remaining temple that has existed is gone, but I can see tears build up. I have no words, and I grab Loss by his hand, pulling him forward. "I didnot SAY either of you could leave!" The portal snaps shut, and just like th

Temporary
There is a staircase that leads the upper world to the underworld. It's different, it's something that both demons and angels use. A truce was drawn up by Lucifer and the leader of the angels, though I'm not really sure of it. Loss and I spend our time on earth, glamoured as humans. I don't try to go back to my old life, cutting my ties with my adoptive family. Although it hurt, I made sure to erase the memories of me from them as well. Loss was there, a hand placed between my shoulder blades. His touch was always welcomed, bringing comfort. Since we returned back to earth from the hidden realm in heaven, things were different. I was more aware of him, and he was more alert of me in case there was danger ready to start again. I noticed that the burnt marks on his chest, and upper stomach were healed over, just the smallest of scars covering it. We go wherever we want, not hearing from Lucifer as much. He's busy working on the truce not just between the angels and d
