[Note: Slight mistake. Leader of the moonlight sirens na is Veneta not Carina #Tears]
Back at a forest in Nigeria, five coven leaders stood in front of a huge gate. It was the gate that lead into the prison which they trapped Alexander the warlock of curses.
"I heard your coven recently got into a scuffle with the werewolves again." Lisa asked as she looked at Veneta.
Veneta only let out a sigh, she then responded.
"They were ready for us this ti. I had to give up the moonstone this ti, we couldn’t win."
"So we’re to be expecting superpowered wolves from now on? I can only hope the new generation wolf gods can cooperate." Barn said, glancing back at the gate.
"Oh they would. Rember the daylighter boy we t, he’s quite the leader." Lisa smiled as she rembered Dexter.
"You an the vampire that went into this place to face Alexander?" Carina asked, looking at Lisa and she nodded.
The place they were was none other than Itasin forest, the sa place where the newly humble warlock of curses was sealed once.
The weather was gloomy, storm clouds were gathering over the skies of the ruined cities.
Veneta looked up, observing the clouds from below with a calm expression.
"How long has it been since you noticed crack on the seal?" She asked, looking at Lisa.
"A few weeks ago." Lisa said, looking at the ground.
She took a step forward, her red dress dancing in the wind. The mont her feet touched the ground, lines on the ground began to glow, tracing to form a peculiar pattern.
The lines expanded outwards, covering kiloters.
"It’s crazy how we were able to draw sothing of this scale in a re two weeks, Carina wouldn’t stop complaining haha.." Barn jocked, making Carina shoot him a piercing gaze.
"Is everyone ready for this?" Asher’s voice finally reached their ears.
He levitated above the ground slightly, his silver eyes looking towards the proton where Alexander was imprisoned.
"If we don’t stop him, who will?" Barn asked, pulling out a needle from thin air.
They could all feel the tension in the air, and by staying here, they were all putting themselves in danger.
"He’s here." Asher whispered.
Imdiately, the lines which were glowing a bright light suddenly turned a sinister orange.
A pillar of flas shot up into the sky, obliterating everything in its path as it spread all around. Countless monsters in the city were able to see it, and they all scurried into hiding.
"Do you guys mind filling in? Who exactly is coming?!" Carina shouted, the light of the flas blinding her montarily.
Lisa was fine, standing at the very front of the entire group. She frowned peering into the flas with her eyes.
The flas soon died down revealing the prison once more.
"Oh my god. It really is him." Barn was shocked.
In front of the prison, stood a man with midnight black hair. His eyes were a beautiful shade of red and his sharp features and beauty made him look ethereal.
He had nothing but a cloth tied around his waist to cover his private parts.
"T–this energy. Impossible." Veneta took a step back, the frightened look on her face.
"He’s here." Lisa frowned. "Morningstar."
The witches froze, their souls quaking at the presence before them. Even the sigils carved into the earth below them trembled.
But one of them was not fazed.
Lisa stood firmly, her usual cheerful deanor gone, now she emanated a dangerous aura and her gaze were filled with murderous intent.
Lucifer tilted his head slowly, his long black hair swaying as his crimson eyes glowed with a soft radiance. He looked almost human — almost. His beauty was unbearable, like staring directly into the heart of the sun.
He looked back at the prison behind him which looked like a small temple, and looked back at the witches with a smile on his face.
"Who do I owe thanks for leaving a crack in my seal?" His lodious voice rung out, reaching the witches ears.
He took a step forward, the sand under his foot instantly burning and turning red from the heat.
"Lucifer, it’s not yet your ti." Lisa spoke, making the man stop in his tracks.
His beautiful smile quickly faded, his brows furrowed as he frowned, looking at Lisa with his red eyes.
"My ti? My ti?! A ti wasn’t promised to ! For millennials I have waited for this, there’s no way I’m going back. I Lucifer Morningstar, this is the ti!!"
Lucifer spread his arms, four black wings sprouting out from his back. His pupils beca slit, like a serpent, and he levitated of the ground, flapping his wings softly.
*Crack!*
Two goat horns broke out from his forehead, elongating and twisting backwards.
"Its clear that I won’t be allowed to leave here so just co at ," he whispered, his voice lodic, but carrying through the forest like thunder.
The ground quaked as Barn, veins bulging with shadow aura, thrust his needle forward. From it erupted an obsidian storm, a thousand tendrils that whipped toward Lucifer, quickly becoming a huge wave.
Lisa had flaming wings and her eyes glowed a deep golden. She flew to the skies, blasting a beam of flas from above.
Carina raised her hand, making lava erupt from the ground, vines from the trees surged from behind. Finally, a lodic song seed to paralyse Lucifer in place.
"A lody," he whispered. "How long has it been since I heard music?"
His crimson gaze snapped open. In an instant, her song died in her throat. Her body shriveled, blood evaporating from her veins. She collapsed into a husk, lifeless eyes staring upward at him.
The shadows that surged forth all vaporized instantly. The flas and lava washed over him, but all he did was smile at it.
"ARGHHHH!"
A shout caught Lisa’s attention. She saw Barn bleeding from his ears and eyes, and she realized sothing.
"Anti-magic." She gritted her teeth.
"Focus on sealing him!!" She scread, forming a transparent barrier around herself.
Carina didn’t dare to look back at where Veneta stood a while ago. She couldn’t feel her energy anymore, but she was more determined than ever.
She casted a silent chant, making the surging lava stop and she shot a beam of light towards him.
Lucifer smiled, bending ever slightly to dodge the attack. But it was a fluke, the light curled, wrapping around him.
"Asher, now!" Lisa shouted causing the rocks and Sand to surround the devil, sealing him in a large rock.
The silver-eyed witch levitated higher, channeling every ounce of his being. His hair flared with argent light, his flesh tearing as he overclocked his magic. "Divine Spear—!"
*BOOM!*
The rock exploded, the leash made out of a holy light was vaporized just like the shadows earlier.
Lucifer appeared in front of Asher mid-chant, his gaze cold. He raised his hand and caught the bright spear as though plucking a flower.
Then he swung it upwards, Shaa! – tearing Asher’s arm clean from his body.
"Ahhh!"
Asher scread, spiraling downward, blood painting the air. He hit the ground hard, clutching the bleeding stump where his arm had been.
Lucifer knelt in front of him, pressing two fingers against his forehead. His crimson eyes glowed brighter, as if peering through Asher’s very soul.
"You will live," Lucifer said calmly. "Run. Spread the tale of what you saw. Tell the world that Morningstar walks again. Tell them... That I’m bringing hell."
Lisa grit her teeth, sweat pouring down her face. Every sigil around them failed, the glowing lines sputtering out like dying embers. She whispered under her breath, "No... this isn’t possible."
Lucifer turned towards her with a smile on his face. He flapped his wings, appearing in front of her in a split second.
He grabbed her neck, looking at her right in the eye.
"Hello, Lisa. I’m here for my child." Lucifer said, looking at her with a smile.
The heat from the environnt seed like it didn’t matter to the both of them. There was almost a little river of flowing lava underneath them.
But all this wasn’t interfering with the conversation Lucifer wanted to have.
"We had a deal, Lucifer. A dozen pure souls for your essence for my child." She spoke, a soft tear welling by the corner of her eyes.
"I know, I know. I was surprised that you actually sacrificed twelve innocent people. How selfish could you be?" He clicked his tongue, chuckling softly.
"You’ve hidden her presence. But I would let you know. I will scour the earth until I find her and when I do, all hell would break loose and I’ll be free." He smiled.
"But for now. You’ll be here." He whispered deviously, looking at the temple below which was unaffected by the battle.
He snapped his fingers, making Lisa vanish and appear within the temple. The chains moved as if they were alive, cuffing her arms and feet instantly.
Lucifer clenched his fists, shutting the door. He looked around, Asher and Barn were gone, the witch in yellow and the one who tried to control his mind with a song laid here, dead.
Lucifer finally turned toward the gate — the crack he had erged from. Demonic roars and whispers echoed from it, a chorus of monstrous voices. They clawed at the edges, desperate to follow.
He raised his hand toward the crack. His tone shifted, softening, almost fatherly:
"Children... wait. Your ti will co. But not yet."
The voices wailed back, an ocean of hatred and hunger restrained by his word alone.
Lucifer touched his own chest, frowning. A ripple of cracks appeared across his perfect skin, leaking light like broken glass.
"This shell..." he whispered. "It cannot contain . Not yet."
He looked up toward the storm-darkened sky, and for the first ti, his voice carried a strange weight of longing.
"I must find the child. Only then will I be whole."
The crimson of his eyes pulsed once — and with a single step, Lucifer vanished, leaving only ash, silence, and corpses where three of the greatest witches on earth once stood.
