My Oh so Dear Bloody Mother
As the legions of Heaven descended, Samael noticed millions of souls suddenly popping up all over Hell into their own loops.
The father and son duo seeking answers descended towards the Host's place of landing.
As they did all could observe the Goddess of Creation Herself becoming smaller, the Laws of God etched into the very essence of Hell restricting, limiting any being to a state of might lesser easy to manage for its angel Lord.
Soon enough she was merely the same size as a normal human woman, though the key difference being, her whole essence being Divinity.
"My Light Bringer!" She called out, having taken the form of a being of light same as Her Husband did long ago on His descent into Hell, for this form is not Her true look.
The first light has always been and always will be the angel Samael, the first and mightiest Son of God.
"Mother," Lucifer greeted her coldly, sparing her a single look, but soon after turning his gaze towards the Host.
"Lucifer," The Messenger greeted, his voice tinted with hidden hostility.
"Gabriel," The Morning Star responded.
"We are here on the command of the Heavenly Father, our God, the Creator of All, Master of Existence, Judge of-"
"Can you please spare me the melodrama and get to the important part? I'd have to stay here for eons to listen to every Name our dear old Dad has." Lucifer interrupted, annoyance clear in his voice.
Disapproval quickly spread upon the expressions of everyone In the Host, but before anyone could speak out or attack Gabriel raised his hand, a sign of command towards them to not interfere.
"Very well your majesty, He Himself needs no introductions in the first place." Gabriel stated, his tone continuing to stay even.
"As you can very well see the Goddess of Creation has been brought by us, the Host of Heaven for Her Rebellion against the King of All-" Gabriel began, but was interrupted,
"Rebellion? Seriously Mother have you never heard that no one likes a copy cat." Lucifer mocked as he addressed the Goddess.
"Samael, so-" She began,
"Do not call me that!" Lucifer hissed, his eyes burning with rage and hellfire, "The angel Samael died that day when he fell through the Planes, all that is now is Lucifer, the Lord of Hell."
Everyone in Hell felt the Morning Star's rage at his former name being called and tensed, even the Goddess and Gabriel, for none could rival or be superior to Lucifer in his own Kingdom save the Almighty who set the Law.
"Speaking of the Host," Lucifer began after a short silence as his eyes returned to their normal brown, "I don't see Michael. Should the Sword of God not be here for such a monumental moment in our endless existence?"
"The Sword is the Defender of Heaven, he is the one who subdued the rogue Goddess by the Father and does not leave his post as Father's Right Hand." The Messenger of God explained.
"Michael subdued Mother?" Lucifer questioned baffled.
'How could Michael possibly defeat Mother when I bested him and Gabriel? I know I made use of his hesitance then, but still, I am stronger than he, that is as fact as my very own existence, so how?'
"Indeed, it was a mighty feat." Gabriel responded as he looked coldly at the fallen Goddess, who stood silent as Her strands of hair made of light kept hidden Her face.
"How is that possible? I am Michael's superior in combat, I have bested you both, notwithstanding the special circumstance it was, and I am sure I could have never bested our Mother even on my greatest of days." Stated Lucifer baffled.
"Her strength seems to increase when She is at Father's side. It seems there is a connection between Them, or well, was. When that connection broke, She weakened.
Besides that She went up against the Demiurgos, holder of the Power of God, a might far surpassing her own without Father." Gabriel explained.
"Be that as it may my son, do not think me weak! Only the Twins have that kind of might for My Husband and I bestowed upon them the two fundamental forces of existence.
Infinite Will for the Light Bringer and Infinite Power for The Sword, together they are the two halves of The Demiurge, an existence that can even rival your Father!" The Goddess hissed.
"Silence blasphemer! None are the Almighty's equal!" Gabriel growled tightening the chain holding her making Her hiss in pain.
"Enough Gabriel! Get to the point of why you have come to my realm. I was under the impression that here I was to no longer be interfered with." Lucifer stated coldly.
"You are the Warden of Hell, Lucifer, whether you wish to deny it or not this is your duty and our Mother has defied the King and for that She must be punished. You received authority on all those who disobeyed Father and are obligated to punish them.
Keep your end of the deal. Punish all who our Heavenly Father, Yahweh deems that you must punish, that is your fate." Gabriel countered just as coldly.
Lucifer considers him for a moment, the Host as well as the armies and citizens of Hell observing from afar. All tense, fearing their Lord's anger at the archangel's words.
"No, I wish to recheck the clauses of the deal." Lucifer suddenly stated.
"What!?" Gabriel exclaimed in shock.
"Father, I know you are listening, I seek an audience," Lucifer stated as he looked up towards the sky.
Everything was silent, everyone with bated breath, even the Goddess who was the one with the most complicated feelings.
She feared Her Husband but also wished to see Him. Even though she was angry at Him for His actions, part of her still loved Him.
When nothing happened People started to easy up, "Speak Samael, what is it you wish to discuss," suddenly to the shock of all God in the visage of a man of light appeared behind Lucifer.
