"Yeah, you do need answers," Lucifer said softly.**********The following morning,Trevor arrived in front of Ezekiel’s apartment door. This is it, he gulped as he pushed the doorbell at the side of the door. He had called Ezekiel and told him that he wanted to come over and visit him, which Ezekiel agreed to.Suddenly, Ezekiel opened the front door with a bright smile. "Trevor! It’s you; welcome to my apartment," Ezekiel shook his hand."Come on in," Ezekiel said as he turned around and attempted to walk inside.Seeing that he had turned around, Trevor saw it as the perfect opportunity to grab Ezekiel. He swiftly walked closer to him as he wrapped his arm around Ezekiel’s neck as he held him tightly, and they both fell to the ground with Trevor still holding him tightly."What is wrong with you?! Why are you holding me?" Ezekiel asked under his breath; he couldn’t speak properly."I know who you are, Ezekiel, you are an angel of a special ranking, and you have been the one behind al
TREVOR’S POVEveryone is born into this world with the goal of finding happiness, and everyone lives with the aim of finding even greater happiness; that’s what my mom used to tell me when I was little. But ever since my parents and siblings died in a car explosion when I was about 6 years old, all my happiness was taken away from me, and my life has been a complete nightmare ever since.My name is Trevor Martins; I am 22 years old. I was born and raised in Los Angeles, California, but ever since my parents died, I was taken in by my aunt and uncle, they have both tormented me all my life. My dream in life was to become an architect, but all that died a long time ago because I was not able to get into any college. I work a 9-to-5 job at McDonald’s. I was also not able to make any friends because no one has ever been attracted to me or even wanted to come close to me, mostly because I am poor and unkempt. I think that is all there is to know about me for now.It was nighttime, the dim
That was when I realized that controlling the wings was not hard; I just needed to visualize moving them. I used my imagination to flap them very hard and go further up into the sky. I started moving in circles; I couldn’t keep my balance in the air. As I turned to look at my side, I saw the demon flying next to me."Do you think you can control it?" He asked, staring at me as we both continued flying."Yes, I think so," I responded as I focused my gaze up ahead. The cold breeze blew through my hair as I flew further into the sky.After a couple of minutes of flying and learning how to fly,We were back on the rooftop of my apartment building. The demon and I were both sitting on the ground next to each other."Since you are faster than the human eyes now, you can steal anything you want. You can be as rich as you want to be, and the arrow is amazing too," The demon explained. Stealing? I don’t think I could steal from other people; I am not the type of person to do that type of thing
"Aunty, I want to ask you somet….." She cut me off. "Yeah, spill it and get out of my face already," she complained as she was busy scrolling on her cellphone. I pressed my lips tightly together. Who the hell does she think she is? "What do you want to say already?!" She yelled as she stood up from the couch. I then raised my hand and stretched it towards her. I tried imagining bringing out the red arrow from my palms; in a split second, the arrow came out of my hand. "Hey, why are you pointing your hand at me? What the hell do you think you are doing?" She asked with her eyebrows twisted together. I quickly shot her in the chest with the red arrow, before she could say another word. Before I knew it, my aunt fell backwards and landed on the couch behind her, it was like the arrow hit her in the chest physically. "You did it, now she is going to do anything you tell her," Mordecai said from behind the couch. "You mean, that is all it takes for me to control someone?" I inquire
“The both of you deserve capital punishment, you guys should just die!” I screamed as I stood up from the floor with tears still rushing down my cheeks. My aunt stood up from the floor and grabbed a knife from the center table in the middle of the living room. “If killing myself is going to make you happy, I am going to do it,” she said in a cold tone. Before I knew what was happening, my aunt stabbed herself on the neck, blood started pumping out of her neck and filled the entire floor, a few seconds she fell flat on the floor. Mordecai flew over to where I was standing and stood next to me. “Why did she do that to herself?!” I yelled as I stared at my aunt’s lifeless body on the floor with my eyes wide open and my mouth hanging loosely. “You were very clear, you told her to die,” Mordecai said. “Wait do you mean the red arrow can compel people to do that?” I inquired as I turned and looked at Mordecai. He started explaining to me that once the arrow makes anyone fall deeply i
Hearing all he just explained, I then realize that I have started down a destination that I can’t even imagine, the path I am on right now is an outrageous one. I didn’t ask to be chosen as a devil king candidate, plus why me? I finally decided to live and pursue happiness, but now 20 devil king candidates? What is it going to take to be chosen as the new devil king and am I ready for all this? “So, you are telling me that there are 20 candidates and one of them will become the new devil king?” I questioned in a soft tone. “Yes, that’s right,” “Well, I guess I believe you, I can’t deny that there is a demon hovering beside me,” “But, what if I don’t want to be the new devil king? Because I never signed up for all of this, all this is too much for me to take in,” I stated in a low tone. “Listen, if someone else ends up becoming the devil king, your wings and arrows will be taken away from you, but if you become the devil king, you get to use them all you want. So, you should do it
“This comedian Mr. Rodriguez is using the red arrow to make those women fall for him one after another, but it will only last for thirty-three days,” someone like Mr. Rodriguez using the arrow this way, would he ever be chosen to become the devil king? I then asked Mordecai what I just thought about. “Of course, any of the candidates can be chosen to be the new devil king, no matter how they use their powers,” he responded. Well, that confirms my question anyway, besides it’s the devil after all, I guess anything goes, someone like the devil would not care about bad things. ******************** The following morning, I was walking down the hallway of Harvard University, I just applied to study architecture, at least now that I have money, I can make one of my life long dreams come true. As I was walking, a loud beeping sound came from my cellphone inside my pocket, I took out my cellphone and looked at what the notification was. It was a news notification, I opened it. I saw t
As soon as the police officers standing in front of the mall saw him, they all readied their guns and pointed it at the mysterious robotic man. “Who are you?! Put your hands where we could see them!” One of the police officers screamed from the crowd. “Don’t shoot, I am not your enemy!” The robotic man yelled as he turned and faced the policemen. His voice sounded like a robotic voice. The female reporter started reporting the description of the robotic man to the viewers. A couple of people standing close to me started pointing at the robotic man on the billboard. “Isn’t that Burnaman?” One of the men standing in the crowd next to me asked. “Yeah, the television show last season,” another guy responded. It seems the guy is popular. I shifted my gaze and focused back on the billboard. To my greatest surprise, I saw demon wings coming right out of the back of the robotic man. “Wait a minute, are those demon wings?” I turned around and looked at Mordecai with my eyes wide open,
