CH60: Zeus (Abby)
Everything happened so quickly; one moment I was standing there with Hermes making casual conversation, the next thing I know, all the souls of Heaven and Hell appear in the Garden and the battle begins. They went from zero to a hundred incredibly fast.
Lucifer was right, there was absolutely no warning about this battle about to commence, nothing like the mock battles we had – these souls appeared out of nowhere and they kept coming, leaving nothing but the sight of fighting figures all along the flat plane of the Garden.
Hermes disappeared quickly somewhere since he didn’t technically have a side to fight on, he just stayed away from it. I grabbed the bow and arrows from the pile of weapons that Kora and I brought with us as quickly as I could and checked my surroundings to try to find her.
Where was she? She was supposed to take the device to Lucifer and have him destroy it then be right back. If the fight

Abby was somehow inside the consciousnesses of both Zeus and Lucifer, practically fighting herself in a sense, and I was supposed to just stand there and watch?Fighting off people as they came near to protect her, I could do that, but the angels and demons seemed to be equal in number, fighting one-on-one, very few coming towards us as they defeated their opponent.Everyone knew this battle was ultimately Zeus versus Lucifer, so no one dared to approach the area that the brothers were fighting.Kora was focused on Abby, I don’t know if she was giving her the mindreading ability so that Abby could block the next attack between brother accordingly or what, but whatever it was that she was doing, she was helping Abby, so I would protect her too.I questioned Kora for a while in the underworld, knowing that she was there against her will, for the most part. I wondered if she preferred the heavens

Brightness. It was all that I saw towards the end.Zeus and Lucifer were about to attack each other for the last time, the final strike, the last clash, the moment that would destroy the portals between Heaven and Hell and leave all the souls in one single realm.The second that they began to move towards each other, I let my consciousness return back to my body and my eyes shot wide open. Brightness. It felt like it lasted forever, but it slowly vanished to reveal a blue sky above, not a single cloud in sight. It was silent now, the war was over.I was laying down, something I don’t remember doing. The last thing I remember was seeing Kora running to me and telling her that it was time.I turned my head to see green grass underneath me. My hair was blonde again, something it hasn’t been for months.Looking further out, I saw that the green grass didn’t last mor

HELLBOUND CH1: On Trial (Abby)
I have been dreading this day for months now. Today is the day that my father receives his trial sentence from the shrewd and devilishly handsome judge, Damien Hale. His nickname was “The Demon,” and I would always hear my father and his fellow lawyer friends speak about “Judge Damien “The Demon” Hale” and how they all hated to go in front of the man because he was so intimidating and harsh. The women, on the other hand, would sneak into the hearings just to get a glimpse of the man, and gossip spread about his beauty, which I had never witnessed until today.It was raining and cold outside, early September weather, so I combed my hair and put on my denim jacket and black leggings, I felt that was appropriate for an eighteen-year-old attending a sentencing. I wouldn’t know, the only court hearings that I had been to were some of my dad’s, years ago, where he was defending a man accused of aggravated assault. When i
HELLBOUND CH2: On Trial (Damien)
The cold September weather came sooner than it should have, and I welcomed it. I was tired of the flames of Hell and was ready for something new. Regardless of the temperature outside, my blood always ran hot - that’s why I never broke a sweat in the Underworld.My job was to decide the specific afterlife for the sinners, I specialized in the seven deadly sins. Those who committed all seven sins were sent directly to me. I was considered one of the “judges of the afterlife” and my job was to be sure that someone gets the proper afterlife treatment that they deserve.Every now and then, I would be sent to the human world to torture someone to death. After a few decades of doing that and really getting the hang of it, I wanted to challenge myself and try my hand at judging the humans during their lifetime as well. Those who had sinned early on and deserved even more punishment than an eternal Sisyphean afterlife. Being a demo
HELLBOUND CH3: The Diner - Part 1 (Abby)
Mom was too distraught after the verdict that I ended up being the one to drive us home. The car ride was silent, only a light sob or sniffle from mom every now and then, it pained me to see her this way, and knowing that I couldn’t do anything to help was even worse. After getting us home safely, I texted my boyfriend, Bradley, to tell him the news.Abby: “Hey babe, just got back from dads court sentencing. Half a million-dollar fine and twenty years in jail without the chance of parole. I’m numb, I don’t know how to react right now, and mom is a mess.”Bradley: “I’ll take you out tonight and we can go to your favorite restaurant, cheer you up a little.”Abby: “Sounds perfect. Thanks, sweetie!”Bradley: “See you tonight.”I laid on my bed staring at the ceiling for a good amount of time until my mind wandered back to the judge in the courtroom. How
HELLBOUND CH4: The Diner - Part 2 (Abby)
“Can I sit?” He asked and I motioned my hand for him to sit across from me. How old was this guy? He looked to be somewhere in his twenties and yet he was already so accomplished, how was it possible?“How, um, how do you know my name?” I asked, nervously. The women who were infatuated with him were right, he was incredibly handsome, and his presence, like the men mentioned, intimidating. The photo’s that I found of him online did not do him justice. Ironic, I thought.He looked at me and tilted his head as if it were obvious, “Your father’s file, of course,” he smiled at me.I felt like an idiot, of course he knew our family from the trial. “Of course,” I said quietly and attempted a chuckle as I looked down at my hands in my lap. “What are you doing here?” As soon as the words escaped my mouth, I hoped that my question didn’t come across as r
