Plans of escape

Zamael chuckled at her childish behaviour.

"Am I that handsome.."? He asked teasingly.

"Yes..." Amira replied absentmindedly.

"What has a light got to do in a dark world"? Zamael asked, and calmly walked to the stall. He picked up the jade blue necklace and handed it to her.

Amira gasped. "You're giving it to me"? She asked in shock.

"If not should I wear it instead". Zamael felt like knocking her little head. The line there was supposed to be 'thank you'.

"Oh... Thanks.."

Amira smiled brightly.

This smile....it was so bright, so pure. It made Zamael pause. He studied the contours of her face and smiled. She was indeed a heavenly beauty.

"Why are you here"..? He asked softly.

Amira snorted.

"As if I want to be here". Who would want to be in hell?

Zamael's eyebrows moved. "Do you want to leave"? He asked.

Amira giggled.

"Although you look handsome like an angel, it doesn't make you an angel".

"What? You've already seen hell and demôns. Is it unacceptable to see an angel". Zamael said with a raised brow.

Amira's eyes widened. "Are you an angel then..."?

Zamael laughed. His face glowing with light, he looked quite angelic. "Do I look like I belong here"?

"Oh... Now I understand. Did God hear my previous prayer"? Amira asked excitedly.

Zamael winked at her. "Who knows, maybe... So do you want to leave this place"?

Amira nodded rapidly. "Yes. I want to leave"... She trailed off as she thought of someone.

Although they had only known each other for few days now, she had comet to be a wonderful friend and it would be cruel to leave without telling her, knowing that she would not be coming back here.

"Can we leave tonight instead? There is someone I have to see before leaving"...

"If you want. When you are ready, call my name. It's Zamael".. Zamael said and then walked away.

"Lucifer. That's enough kílling! At this rate you'll end up kílling everyone in hell".! Devlin yelled anxiously.

His stomach churned when his eyes fell on the piles of dismantled body. It was very brutal. Their body organs where all taken out.

Lucifer gritted his teeth. His body was engulfed with flames that burned brightly.

Zamael...! He only came here to laugh at him. To remind him of his nativity and cowardice back then...

He had been too indulged in brotherly love and had been deceived by them all!

"Lucifer..." Devlin called softly

Lucifer turned and glared at him with ferocious eyes.

"Get out..."!! He barked at him.

"Please listen to me". Devlin pleaded.

"Get out now or you'll regret it"! Lucifer seethed, and marched towards him in slow strides.

Devlin moved back in fear. Lucifer rarely got ângry. In fact he had never seen him angry since he started working for him thousands of years ago.

Deciding not to trigger him anymore, Devlin sighed and left.

Lucifer stared at the pile of bodies expressionlessly. They all made him like this so he had nothing to be regretful of.

Each and every time a new mark appears, it comes with an excruciating pain that can only be appeased with blood and every time he had endured the pain that lasted for a week but seeing Zamael today, he felt the urge to kíll. His body craved for blood...

Mira hugged Amira from behind.

"Girl...! I was about to send message to the palace about you going missing".

Amira was surprised at first, but she quickly hugged her back. "That would out you in a while lot of trouble you know".

"Who cares..asking as you are safe and sound, it doesn't matter the punishment". Mira said cutely.

Amira sighed. "Miranda...."

Mira rolled her eyes.

"What? What? What"? Don't start with your lecturing. You always do that whenever you call my full name".

"I've got something important to tell you but let's talk back in the palace". Amira said seriously.

Mira studied her face for sometime before nodding. She held her hand, and chanted a spell.

Soon they both disappeared from the market back to their room.

"That was fun"... Mira sighed and jumped on the fluffy bed.

"Yeah right it was". Amira smiled thinking of someone.

"Oh what's the important thing you wanted to tell me"? Mira sat up on the bed and folded her legs.

"Er...." Amira smacked her lips, not knowing where to begin.

"I.. will be going back to where I came from tonight"..

Mira frowned in confusion. "All the... I'm not from hell stuff was it really not a joke"?

Amira shook her head.

"No it's not. Devlin came to earth where I'm from, and threatened my father into giving me to him. I knew he was not human but I never knew he was a démon. I though that perhaps he was a vampire. At least I know of the existence of those back in earth".

"So...."

Mira gasped in astonishment. Although they had heard little about humans, they were all myths.

The Devíl doesn't let the demon's speak with the people in prison so they don't really know if it was true and most people didn't believe them, including her..

She giggled. "Ain't I the best? The first time I made a friend, it had to be with a mythical creature".

Amira smiled at her enthusiasm. It reminded her of her sister Christine.

"Okay.. I'll go clean the traces of my spells so we won't be caught. If I do it here it may inconvenience you so I'll just go somewhere else". Mira stood up and walked out.
