Chapter Text
The deer looked around him,a hidden panic in his expression. Everyone was looking at him, shame, disappointment or just pure anger written all over their expressions. Except for Lucifer, the fallen angel was still trying to process the information that was spilled out Infront of him his expression one of pure confusion.
"Alastor... Why is it indicating that your the one with zou's power? " The blonde asked, as the deer remained silent not having a sold answer to the fallen angels question the blonde's heart broke his rose coloured glasses shattering Infront of him as he saw the deer for what he truly was.
"Was all of that,just a way to gain his trust and take his power?" The deer didn't reply,his expression only hardeneing at the sudden accusation .
"You set him up didn't you?" The blonde continued,his voice lowering as more and more of the realisation sunk in.
The fallen angel walked up to the deer and the deer stepped back untill he was backed up to a wall,his back pressed against the wallpaper still silenced.
"Your the reason why he is dead. You wanted him gone. All you ever want from people is their power don't you?" The blonde shot,pressing an accusing finger in the deers direction as tears welled up in his eyes.
" Is that why you wanted to get closer to me? Taking advantage of my sadness and using that as a way to get closer to me and gain my power?"
" Answer me goddamnit!" The deers ears lowered as the words got caught in his throat as nothing came out.
" All this time I actually thought you were a good person. That you weren't all sour.-"
"That is your fault for placing your blind trust in me. I will never change for a person like you Lucifer." The deer replied his gaze cold and empty,he was backed into a corner and he wasn't going to act vulnerable now.
"Then take what you want." The blonde waved his hand summoning a angelic spear,the same one that was supposed to kill him and placed it in the deers hands.
"If I'm dead you will be the most powerful overlord in hell. That's all you have ever wanted isn't it? Well fucking do it."
The deer looked down at the spear in his hands then back at Lucifer before vanishing, letting the spear that was once in his hands to fall with a clank.
Lucifer followed afterwards, vanishing as he didn't want to talk to anyone,the feline looked at his trembling daughter before passing him to the Princess.
"Charlie can you...do my solid and take care of her... please" the feline spoke walking up to the Princess and handing the cub to her, before she could respond the feline summoned a portal and entered before it immediately closed behind him.
The deer appeared back back into his radio toweer sinking to the ground as his mind recalled the series of events that have just occurred his cane lieing at the ground beside him before he felt something hit the back of his head, ultimately knocking him out.

The deer opened his eyes his body completely submurged in water, the stag swam up to the surface, finding the hound who was also trying to stay afloat.
"What is this all about?!"
"You need to realise what your doing wrong. If you don't admit it you will mentally drown us."
" Im not wrong about anything. And aren't you supposed to be dead?"
" Oh no we are alive just unconscious right now...and if you keep telling yourself that I can't summon you next time"
"I do not care about this,it's just an inconvenience."
" You will soon realise how important this shit will be I swear to you."
The deer scowled,rolling his eyes before the hound continued
"But as for now, you truly are a disappointment to everyone."
The deer snapped awake looking around his room and finding out that his shadow was gone, completely gone. Feeling as if a part of him was ripped away from himself,he tried summoning it back but it refused to return leaving the buck confused and tired.
The blonde appeared back in his mansion, the empty space sounding him providing a comfort he couldn't explain. His wings drooping down and dragging on the floor as he didn't bother to fold them back up.
The blonde kneeled down,his hands in his hair as he broke down,the empty halls only echoeing his quiet sobs.
A presence appeared behind the blonde,placing a cold hand on his shoulder the blonde turned around to see the deers shadow looking back at him,it's silhouette crouching beside the blonde it's expression a small frown.
"I'm sorry..." It thought, looking at the blonde's tear filled eyes and it's frown deepened,lifting the king up into his arms and holding him there providing comfort because he needed it,just like all those weeks ago.
"It's...not your fault... I'm sure that you didn't know what he was doing anyways"
The blonde spoke as he held the cold sillouette back,his eyes closing as he accepted the embrace.
"I did feel when his power increased...but he didn't allow me to tell anyone" the shadow replied,as it used it's free hand to trail up the blondes wings,admiring them.
"Aren't they going to get dirty?"
"Oh those? I don't really care about them..."
" You should...you can fold them back up so that they don't get dirty..."
The fallen angel let out a heavy sigh before folding them back up,pulling back to look at the silhouette
"Happy?"
"Yes."
"Where are you from?!"
"I believe you should be saying when"
Sera growled the chains on the large hound Tightening and threatening to burn the hound but the hound gave no reaction at all to the angelic binds that were supposed to hold him down and burn his skin or fur off.
"Are you a mortal or something?! How are you not burning in pain right now"
"Good question...but an even better one is aren't you one of the people who is like years upon years old right now"
" Yes,but that isn't the point. Either you are a heavenly being or your alive and somehow in heaven."
" Top tier observation skills no wonder you run this place,you have eyes! 200 of em but still-"anyway why do you need a temu version of Clifford the big red dog?"
"Because of your time abilities." A voice came from the background before Lilith appeared,her body returned to a healthier state.
"Lilith I specifically told you not to come. Why are you here" the seraph spoke turning towards the woman "because I deserve to see the progress of something I told you about" the woman harshly replied.
"Well your a bit too late darling. Remember that vox guy? The one that we saved you from?! Yeah he basically installed himself in my brain and by doing that he took away my ability.i could have just turned back time if I had the ability."
'lier! You still have your ability I just don't know how to access it'
'but you can't say that hmm? So be a good boy and shut your iPad ass up'
"How can you even have such an ability?" The seraph asked as he looked at the large hound.
"I don't know I was probably born with it" the hound grinned it was obvious that he was lieing now that vox was Heald back from taking control since the angelic bindes refused him from taking control he could do and say whatever he wanted.
" I can't read the binds Sera...I can't tell if he is lieing or not" the smaller seraph, Emily spoke looking at the hound with a confused expression.
"Impossible. Send him back to the cell! I'll go investigate more...and you stay back and don't interrupt anything. If god's messenger hears any of this we are screwed."
" Noted." The queen spoke before disappearing.
"Heyyyyy~"
The deer jumped back looking at the hound Infront of him,he was back in the void but he hadn't passed out yet so how was this even possible?
The hound saw the deer's puzzled expression and he explained.
"Look at what I can do now! I can now summon you instead of waiting for you to fall asleep or pass out pretty cool huh?"
" Why have you even summoned me?"
" Mostly to mock you but since vox has taken over again I'm bored and didn't know what to do"
" Do you take turns on who takes over your body?"
" No it's just that when this angel used a glowy looking chain he immediately stepped down saying that it was burning him"
" Heaven caught you? What do they even want"
" I don't know but now I have to go another angel wants to ask me some questions"
The deer snapped out of it looking around his room, confused before he sighed letting his hands sink into his hair.
'take control before those chains burn me again'
'finally.'
"Hello!"
The hound looked down, noticing the smaller seraph below him.
"Well hello little one is there anything you want me to assist you with?"
"I just don't understand...how are you alive and in heaven? It isn't possible."
" Well anything is possible if you think about it but I unfortunately do not know how I also ended up here."
The seraph looked at the hound intently before her eyes widened noticing that the hounds eyes were brown,not the crimson that was there before they captured him
"Why did your eyes change colour?"
"That's one of the many mysteries to my existence dear"
The seraph sighed before exiting the hounds cage releasing the angelic binds that Heald the hound as a precaution, leaving the hound to his thoughts
'you can take over now. It's too boring to be in control anyway'
'you have been really compliant lately'
'arent you the one was was whining about me fingiting it? Man choose one thing.'
'alright, alright'
The hound blinked,his brown eyes instantly shifting to the deep crimson hue it was before as the hound looked around his enclosure and the angels passing by who looked at him.

"Hiiiii~"
The deer looked around,as he was now back in the void once more
"We are going to have to stop meeting like this"
" Not my fault you fucked up"
" What do you mean by that"
" Well you have completely shattered Lucifers faith in you by saying that"
" What do you even know about that you disgraceful-"
" You have my power remember? I see what you see...when I want to not all of the time."
" I can also see how you hurt my husband by not telling him about this."
"Do you have to keep reminding me of my failures whenever you summon me?"
" Yes."
" You are quite annoying"
" I know tampon...I know"
The silhouette lifted the fallen angel into his arms,the blondes head resting on the sioluettes head before he suddenly changed into a snake, his white and elongated body resting on the sioluettes neck.
"Don't you feel cold?"
"No...why do you assssssssk?"
"Aren't snakes cold blooded creatures?"
"Well I guesssssssss sssssssso"
" Do you have to emphasize your 's'?"
"No I jusssssst find it fun to do"
The silhouette smiled before unwrapping the snake from it's neck, grabbing a nearby blanket that was draped around the couch and using it to wrap around the snakes body.
"Thank you for everything by the way...I'm glad that your my first ever friend" the silhouette thought, settling down onto the couch with the wrapped snake in his hands.
"What do you mean? I'm the one who is supposed to be thankful, your literally trying to comfort the literal king of hell just because he got his spirits crushed"
The snake popped his head out of the blanket his tongue momentarily slicking out as the sillouettes frown deepened.
"Well your the one that made me and my owner... mostly me to realise how detached from reality we are... He literally made me just to have an output of where all his emotions go."
The snakes eyes widened before his eyebrows furrowed.
"Waittt- how come you are here? Isn't your range limited to how far you can stay away from Al"
" Well I kinda-detached myself from him I was worried about you!"
" We should go back to make sure he is alright"
"
But don't you hate him? "
" No... Not really it's funny how delusional love makes you" the snake spoke before snuggling deeper into the blankets and closing his eyes"later though I want to stay like this for a bit longer..."
