Lucifer studied the creature in front of him with more enthusiasm than before. This second version had longer hair than that of the first and a more curvy figure, it had more slender legs and arms and a more soft look to its features. It looked quite attractive.
Attractive?! What was he thinking? Surely this was some kind of curse, another type of trap. The creature couldn’t see him either,it turned its small, slender blue eyes to the dead creature on the floor and walked over to it. Lucifer watched as it touched it’s lookalike on the head and the latter let out a small noise of satisfaction. Lucifer scrunched his face in disgust. What manner of conversation is this again? Can this second creature not speak?
The slender creature kept rubbing the head of the dead companion until the sky started to get brighter and Lucifer watched till the end. To say he was fascinated was an understatement. The look on the face of the creatures during their conversation was
FLASHBACK 7Adam?! Adam wasn’t his name, not that he remembered anyway. Who was he calling Adam? Was it…“Adam”. God called again in a soft tone. Lucifer stood puzzled then later his mouth opened up in shock for the hundredth time. The male creature grabbed his female by the hand and looked up to the sky.“My lord. I am here”. He replied. Lucifer’s shocked face contorted to anger. He was talking to this being now?!“Sit down Adam with your woman, we have to discuss”. God said. Lucifer was staring at the sky in disbelief. His mouth opened and closed numerous times, still he could not find anything to say.Adam instantly obeyed the most high’s voice and sat on the green substance which Lucifer found out to be grass. The way Adam and the female looked up to the sky with so much admiration made him sick, that was how he once looked at the creator. When he was dumb.“Are you lovin
FLASHBACK 8The female creature in the garden played around the green fields with no care in the world and with no idea that over a million spirits were watching her, especially their head. The most fascinated spirit and the most annoyed.Lucifer watched her jump around with a floating creature on the air. It’s appearance was very strange, it basically had no head just a pair of small colorful wings. The ability of the creature to survive without a head was beyond Lucifer’s mind.As the female jumped around, the two large lumps on her chest danced with her and Lucifer struggled greatly not to look at them.As strange as it was, Lucifer found himself drawn to it in a weird way. He shook his head and frowned when he realized he had been staring for too long.“This is why she must be destroyed”. He said to himself. Lucifer’s eyes darted to the tree that was strictly forbidden to touch, he smiled coyly. He had not had any
FLASHBACK 9 Once again, Lucifer was stalking the female but this time with a smile on his face. She was near a stream far away from Adam playing with her hair and humming to the tunes of the small birds that surrounded them. A hissing sound diverted Lucifer’s attention. The former cherub looked at the snake in his hands and his smile widened. So close. He raised his hands so the snake could be at eye level with him, then his eyes darkened. “I know you are a harmless creature but yet you seem so…dangerous”. He said. The serpent’s head moved side to side as it stared and Lucifer mirrored the action with perfect sync. “So deceitful. I feel you are a lot like me”. He continued. “And just like me all you need is a little push”. As he said those words, the snake hissed and its eye slit got narrower. It understood him. He then began to stare deeply into the eyes of the animal, the serpent had stopped hissing and it focused on the dark
FLASHBACK 10 Lucifer had to patiently wait for the female’s mouth to close. When it did, he hissed in satisfaction but it opened again and Lucifer bared his fangs in annoyance. The female didn’t notice because she had heard something far worse than his brewing anger. “He what?” She finally whispered. “Lied to you”. Lucifer said to her.When she looked back at him, her expression had changed from shock to that of hurt. Lucifer wanted to laugh, she was going to experience more of that soon. “Why would he hide that from us?” Lucifer hissed. “Isn’t it obvious, he is intimidated by you”. The female looked at him with a confused expression. “Why? He created us,there is nothing about Adam and I that is intimidating”. She said. Lucifer hissed. Even if she was extremely innocent, she was smart. And here he was thinking it will be easy for him to persuade her. “He doesn’t have what you have”. “And that is?”
FLASHBACK 11 Adam’s eyes darted back and forth from his wife to the grapes in her hand, the half eaten grapes. He closed his eyes afterwards, not wanting to accept the truth before him, he didn’t want to accept his wife had gone behind his back and God’s back to eat the fruit. “Adam…say something”. The female begged. Adam finally looked at her, the hurt evident in his eyes. “Why?” He whispered. The female came closer to him, her expression equally sour. “I wanted to make you happy”. She said. Adam shook his head. “You showed me the garden and made me feel welcome, I only wanted to repay you”. Adam shook his head frantically. “Everything I showed you, he showed me. I knew nothing when I came here. I was as clueless as you were, you shouldn’t have done this”. The female looked as though her heart had broken in two. She dropped the grapes to the floor and held unto Adam. “No, no this was not supposed to be your reaction. H
The voice that called out needed no introduction. Both Adam and his wife stood still with their eyes wide opened and their hearts beating fast.The voice did not call again and it didn't need to, Adam knew that if this were some other day he would have answered the call in a heartbeat. But this was not just some other day, this was the day he had done the unthinkable. He kept staring at his wife and she did the same, the grapes had fallen off his hands out of shock. After a while he then took in the appearance of the female. His eyes widened."You're naked". He whispered. The female nodded."You too". She replied."We can't see him like this". The woman nodded again in agreement and looked around frantically. Her eyes landed on the fig tree nearby and she pointed at it."The fig leaves". Adam looked at them puzzled."Yes?""We'll cover ourselves with them". She explained."Oh. Yes, yes let's do that and quickly". They ran quick
After so many years, one would have thought that Lucifer would have grown accustomed to the world he had landed in but reverse was the case. The more he stared at the occupants of the world, the less he saw of them but it didn’t bother him like before because unlike him, the humans did not see the potential in themselves. And it was all his doing.As he blended into the crowd, he smiled. That smile had never been genuine, it was even more feared than his scowl. From every corner his eyes could reach, there was iniquity. Since the first time he turned man against God, they had taken the baton on their own and did even worse than he had imagined. There were some that foolishly still upheld their belief and those ones were his problem even thought they were smaller in number.He thought he had succeeded for a while after he dealt with Adam and his murderous son but then as always ‘he’ was always ready to destroy his plans.After winning over the w
Azaliah didn’t know which sound to focus on, the hoots and yells of the angels or the light buzzing sound in her ears. She took a deep breath as she shook her head frantically in an attempt to dull the noise. The fear that had gripped her ever since the meeting was still evident and she struggled to hide it from every cheerful angel she walked past.None of them noticed the strained smile she gave them when they greeted her, all of their attention was on the tournament and she was so glad for it. She made her way to where the Cherubs and Archangels sat, drawing the attention of Beth and Michael. The two gave each other a glance before giving her a smile but Azaliah didn’t want to think deep into it. She returned the smile, clearly forced and sat beside Michael the other seat at her left was meant for her mother who had not made an appearance yet.She adjusted herself on her seat, the action drawing the confused eyes of her superiors towards her. She would s
