14 Spiderling and Dusted Customers

It has already been a year since the 'Civil War' and nothing really important happened except the time Dormammu attacked Hong Kong. When Lucifer went to Hong Kong for that event, he had the strange urge of seeing people suffering again.

He also had this feeling when the Sokovia attack happened and he was puzzled by this. He didn't feel anything of that kind when he was doing his daily routine but when he saw the suffering of the people in Hong Kong, he was really excited and that made him confused over this matter.

Seeing the people die over and over again, his joy increased at seeing their suffering but when that stopped, he was okay again. But after a while, he kind of got that down after torturing a few criminals that were roaming around.

After reminiscing all of that, he then remembered that Spiderman: Homecoming was going to happen this month. He then started to devise a plan to see Tom Holland in action. When he was starting to see that his face was creating a terrifying look, he stopped and gave a sheepish grin to the terrified costumers.

Death looked at Lucifer with a confused look and shook her head when she saw his stupid look. She then started to go back to entertaining the frightened customers.

Seeing Death just brush off his weird scene, he sighed in relief and remembered that Midtown High School was going to have that field trip to the Washington Monument. He smiled and walked over to Death's side and whispered, "Honey, I'm going somewhere tomorrow. I want to meet someone."

Death looked at him and raised an eyebrow while putting her hands on her hips and said, "Oh? And who is it?" Seeing her reaction, Lucifer just chuckled at her and said, "I'm going to meet a little boy on his field trip tomorrow. I want to meet Tony Stark's protege and mess around with him a little."

Death looked surprised at his words and said, "Uh, okay. Just don't mess around too much." Lucifer just smiled at her teasingly and said, "Maybeeee." Death rolled her eyes at him and went back to the surprised customer.

Lucifer then happily went back behind the bar and cheerily cleaned some glass. Looking at the Devil's happy face, the crowd was frightened at what he was going to do to a little kid. But when they thought about it, they didn't want it to be them who was being messed around by a sadistic Devil and just shrugged it off.

After a good night's rest, Lucifer cheerily wore his black suit and tictac shoes. Lucifer then went down to the bar and talked to Keith. When he was done telling Keith was he was going to do, Lucifer kissed Death and went to Washington D.C. before the students could even arrive.

When Lucifer arrived, he noticed that there were many people walking around so he just blended in with the crowd. He then went inside the Monument and went straight to the top. When Lucifer arrived at the top floor, he saw that nothing special was really in there so he just created a wooden chair and sat on it while waiting for the students to arrive.

After a couple of minutes, the students from Midtown High finally arrived at the lowest floor. Seeing that they were already here, Lucifer uncrossed his legs and waited for a little longer for the bombed to detonate. After a few minutes, the bomb finally exploded and the Washington Monument shook.

Sensing Peter Parker running towards the monument, he just smiled in amusement at his words. He then saw that the boy was now crawling up the monument and chuckled. He then thought, 'This kid is really amusing. He should just run up the monument rather than crawl.'

Seeing that Peter finally arrived through the window, he laughed as Peter was sliding on the floor. Seeing that the kid was holding up the elevator and walked over to him and squatted down beside him. He then said, "Hey kid, you really should try harder now. I can make a deal with you to help you with your little problem."

Peter looked at where the voice originated from and saw a blonde-haired man and was puzzled about who he was. Karen suddenly said, 'Peter, the man in front of you is Lucifer Morningstar. He is the bonafide Devil. He seems to want to make a deal with you. I should warn you that when he makes a deal, nothing can stop him in making you do your part.'

When Peter heard this, he accidentally released his hold on the elevator. He then looked at Lucifer and back at the elevator and dived down. While he was diving, he shouted, "I'll be back for that deal!!"

Lucifer was surprised at this development and teleported to the bottom of the elevator. He then watched as the elevator was coming close to him and heard the screams of terror from the students. Hearing their shouts, Lucifer was feeling another urge when heard their shouts but pushed it down.

All of a sudden, the elevator stopped and the screams were now that of relief and excitement. He then shook his head in amusement and saw that the elevator was being elevated little by little. When the elevator was finally at the top, he saw it suddenly coming down towards him so he just disintegrated the damn thing and waited for Peter to fall down.

After a few seconds, he saw that Peter was now falling down so he just waited for him. Seeing that Peter was trying to use his web-shooters, he just burned every web that came out of it. Peter was panicking as he saw his webs burning and couldn't do anything.

Seeing that Peter was finally close to him, he just stretched his arms a little and caught the panicking Peter. Seeing that he was caught, Peter released a big sigh of relief and looked at his savior and saw that it was Lucifer.

Seeing that it was the Devil who saved him, Peter was really panicking in what he wanted as compensation. Lucifer was really amused at his panicking face and said, "Kid, I just wanted to see the famous apprentice of Tony Stark." Hearing his words, Peter looked at Lucifer with a disbelieving look and said, "Really? You don't want my soul or flesh or anything? You're just here because of that?"

Lucifer looked at him with an unamused look at his blabbering, he just said, "I was here for that, but it seems that I want to take your annoying blabbering now. I can manipulate your mind to always be serious."

Peter looked at him in panic but had a contemplating look on his face and said, "Really? You can do that?" He then looked like he had an epiphany and said, "Wait! I don't want that!!"

Lucifer chuckled at him and said, "It seems that you're forgetting something." Peter looked at him confusedly and said, "What is it?" Lucifer raised an eyebrow at him and said, "Do you really want to be carried by me, princess style?"

Peter looked at Lucifer and down at his hands and blushed, he then quickly jumped out of his arms, and nervously said, "I'm sorry about that." Lucifer just chuckled at him and said, "I'm done with what I want here now. I'll be going now, Peter." After he said that, Lucifer was suddenly gone in front of Peter's eyes.

Peter looked at Lucifer's previous spot in shock and amazement, He then said, "WOW!! Karen! Did you see that!?! He just teleported out of here! Can people really do that?" Karen then said, 'You must have forgotten that he was the Devil, Peter.' Peter panicked a little and quickly get out of there.

When Lucifer arrived back at the bar, he said, "That kid really is a cinnamon roll hahaha! I can't wait for when Tony becomes overprotective over him like a dad," not knowing that there were many people who can hear him.

Death looked at Lucifer with a confused look and said, "What do you mean by that Lucy?" Lucifer turned around and saw the many looks of the customers and Death's confused look. He just smiled at her and let her see his memories with Peter.

When Death saw the memory, she squealed in delight and said, "I want that kid as a son!" Lucifer looked at her in a deadpanning way and said, "No." Death looked at him with a pleading look but Lucifer seemed like his decision was final. The people looked at them in confusion but let them be as they didn't want to pry on their privacy.

Death just stomped her on the ground and said, "But Lucy! That kid was so cute and he seems like a really nice kid." Lucifer just gave her a 'Really?' look and said, "Honey, we just can't adopt kids that have guardians just because you wanted to!"

Death looked at him with a defeated look and said, "You're right. I'm sorry about that." She then walked towards their bedroom in a dejected manner.

Looking at her fleeing back and Lucifer had a 'What just happened?' look and said, "Was my influence on her really that strong? She doesn't seem like the cold and indifferent Death that I met!" The crowd seemed to agree with his words as they saw that he really had a strong influence on her.

Seeing that the people seemed to agree with him, he just shook his head in amusement and ran to their bedroom while saying, "Wait for me, honey!" The customers just looked at Lucifer's running form in amusement while having the lines of thinking, 'That's the Devil?'

After a year from his meeting with Peter, Lucifer thought, 'The Infinity War is finally happening!! 7 more years and Death and I can finally leave this world!' He then looked at his bar and said, "I'm gonna miss this bar when I'm gone."

Death, who was beside him, looked at him in amusement and said, "If you're really going to miss this bar, then why don't we stay?" Lucifer looked at her in shock and said, "What!? Who said I was going to miss this bar? I want to travel the Omniverse and not be stuck here!"

Death just laughed at his reaction and said, "You shouldn't worry too much about the bar, we have Keith here to look after it," she then pointed at Keith who was cleaning some glass. Lucifer looked at Keith and said, "Maybe you're right," until Keith suddenly started turning into dust.

Lucifer looked at the place where Keith once was and said, "Well now that he's gone, I'm even more worried about the bar now. See! The customers are suddenly disappearing," he then pointed at the disintegrating customers while looking at Death.

Death looked at the disintegrating customers with a serious look and said, "Someone just used the Infinity Stones." Lucifer replied, "Yep!" Death looked at him in a shocked look and said, "You knew about this!?"

Lucifer smiled at her and said, "Uhuh, why?" Death then shouted at him, "And you didn't tell me!?" Lucifer just walked away and said, "Because I know that's what your reaction is going to be." He then thought, 'It seems that they've failed already.'

Death just looked at him and said, "You are being unbelievable right now!" She then looked at the rest of the confused customers and said, "Someone just wiped out half of the universe and you are part of those half who survived."

Hearing her words, the crowd panicked and started to get out of the bar and went straight back to their families. Death just looked at the fleeing customers and felt Lucifer come back. When she looked at him, she noticed that he had a serious look on his face.

She then saw that Lucifer went straight to Keith's dust and started to manipulate the duet into a living being. She wasn't too shocked at this development but then she saw that Keith now had black hair, glowing blue eyes, a buffer body, and an even large amount of energy in him.

She then looked at Lucifer who was smiling and said, "What did you do?" Lucifer just made a shushing sound at her and turned back to the confused Keith and said, "Hello Keith. I have turned you into a demon now and I want you to take care of the bar from any potential dangers that may come here."

Keith looked at Lucifer in shock and started to feel the strong power that was coming from his body. He then looked back at Lucifer and said, "Boss, what happened back there? Why did I feel like I just died?"

Lucifer just smiled at him and said, "Someone wiped out half of the population of the universe and you were one of them." Keith looked at him in shock and Lucifer continued, "I turned you into a demon because you've been a very good subordinate of mine."

Lucifer looked at Death and invited her back to their room and leaving a shocked Keith over there. Lucifer and Death then started to walk towards their bedroom while a shocked Keith was left sweeping the dust of the floor, not knowing that they were once people.
