A Demonic Love
Hellish Family Reunion
It was hot and as Andy rolled over on to one side he felt almost as if he were on fire. His head felt like it was being split in two and there was a slight burning right around the very tips of his ears. What was going on? Two seconds before he had been laughing with Ashley on the beach-watching Lily splashing around in the waves and he had just been about to join her. Then a searing pain in his head and Andy fell over onto his side and he was terrified to open his eyes.
He felt around himself blindly, feeling rough stone against his finger tips and suddenly his blue eyes popped open and his mouth dropped open in a silent gasp. The moon above him was blood red, the air was filled with smoke and he could hear the distant screaming of the ones who were being tortured. He knew where he was-he had no idea how he had gotten there-but he had lived in this wretched place for over two thousand years.
Andy was back in Hell.
He sat up, rubbing the back of his neck and as Andy looked down he realized something-he didn’t seem to be whole. There was a transparency to him, almost like he was a ghost in one of those horror movies that Lily made him watch every so often. He held his hands out in front of him and Andy cocked an eyebrow as he looked down at himself. He could see the rough stone street through his own body and Andy almost felt like sighing in relief-he wasn’t dead and he hadn’t been fully brought back to Hell.
But the questioned remained-what was he doing there and how had he come to be where he was presently? Andy looked around, his eyes growing wide as a figure approached him and suddenly Andy was up on his feet, his legs bent in to a low crouch and he heard himself growl as the figure got even closer and then came to a full stop.
“I don’t belong down here anymore with the likes of you…” He snarled and then winced as a red hand came out and smacked him across one cheek. Andy held his face and looked up, his blue eyes meeting the snake like yellow ones that were currently staring him down.
“You will always belong here Andrus and as your father I can do with you whatever I like…” Satan spoke to him then, his deep voice silky and alluring, but Andy wasn’t falling for it. He felt strange and unlike himself, but he couldn’t put his finger on what had changed.
“No-no you can’t. I have found a place for myself…on Earth and I have found my purpose in life…” Andy said as he stood straight up and crossed his arms over his chest. Satan looked down at him, his snake eyes taking everything in and he smirked at Andy evilly as he moved a hand to brush away some of the boy’s long black hair.
“Oh yes-with the humans. You’ve spent so much time with them Andrus that you yourself are becoming human.” His smile was wicked and Andy said nothing at first as he swatted the red hand away and felt at his own face and neck. Nothing. Suddenly his fingers traveled up his ears and his eyes grew wide-the very tips of his ears were rounded, the pointed ends gone and he felt his stomach drop.
“No-no I’m still half Demon…I-I will always be half Demon.” Andy said, his voice unsure and the Dark Lord’s smirk only widened.
“Oh Andy-there are higher powers than even myself who have bigger plans for you. That’s why I brought you here-to make a little deal with you.” Andy cringed as he looked at the Demon in front of him and thought over his options. Satan was notorious for making deals and then wiggling out of his end of the bargain-most musicians had learned that the hard way, thus creating something that Satan gleefully called the 27 Club.
“Oh? What would this deal involve?” Andy asked, cocking an eyebrow as he kept his arms crossed over his chest. He was trying to feel around to see if his dagger was still in his vest pocket, but he couldn’t feel anything and he knew that it would be useless anyways.
“I will allow your little pet human to live on Earth-I’ll stop chasing after the lot of them-“ Satan smiled then, his fangs hanging over his bottom lip and Andy felt a chill run up and down his spine.
“But?” Andy asked, his blue eyes skeptical as the Lord only smiled at him and waved his hands. Out of thin air appeared a scroll and as Satan grabbed it with one clawed hand, Andy noticed that a quill had appeared in front of him and he was wondering if he should reach out and grab it.
“However-you must return to Hell and once again take up the place of my rightful heir to the throne.” Satan said, his smile growing devilish and Andy only flared his nostrils as he thought things over. Could he really leave Lily alone on Earth? She would kill herself again-he knew that and he knew what he had to do in that moment.
“No deal. Chase us until our dying days-we’re prepared for you.” Andy said, his voice strong and Satan only looked at him for a moment and then chuckled. He waved his hands once again and both the scroll and the quill disappeared and Andy knew that he had lost any chance of stopping this war from happening, but he couldn’t lose Lily-he couldn’t watch her die from her sadness at losing him.
“Oh yes-I’ve heard you’ve got yourself an army of sorts. Wearing warpaint like the great Demon warriors before you-shameful Andrus…very shameful.” Satan teased and Andy felt himself growing angrier by the second.
“My name is Andy and yes, we are an army and there may only be six of us, but we will fight you and your Demons until all of the blood has run from our bodies.” Andy said, his smirk returning to his lips and he noticed that the Dark Lord seemed to be taken back by his sheer confidence.
“Oh Andy…you are so very much like your mother. She was hard headed and stupid…just like you and I’m going to kill you…just as I killed her right after your birth.” Andy felt his jaw drop and Satan only smirked at him as he walked closer. Andy held up his hands-he was ready to fight for all he was worth and he would die trying to take this son of a bitch down.
“Send me back to Earth you sick, twisted monster or I swear to God I will kill you where you stand…” Andy said through gritted teeth and Satan only smiled wickedly at him as he placed a cold hand against Andy’s shoulder and moved so that they were at eye level with one another.
“Oh Andy-God? Really? Who do you think has begun to transition you to being a human? It certainly wasn’t me.” His face was vicious looking and Andy only shook his head, his eyes closed as he tried to think about anything else than the situation he was in right now.
“Send me back-you and I will have our day father…” Andy said, his blue eyes opening as he looked up and locked eyes with the only person in the world who he hated and would kill if given the chance.
“Oh yes and it’s coming sooner than you think…” His smirk was nasty as Satan reached out a finger and touched Andy’s forehead slightly. Andy felt like he was falling backwards, his arms and legs held out in front of him and the only thing he could focus on was the twisted looking face that was staring down at him as he fell through the darkness.
“Oh and Andy?...I would invest in a bigger army if I were you…you’ll need as many loyal followers as you can get.” Andy closed his eyes then and felt himself drifting slowly until finally he came to a stop, but he was too terrified to open his eyes-scared of what might be in front of him should he open them.
Andy laid there and he jumped slightly as he felt a hand come to rest against his shoulder and he allowed himself to be moved as he was pushed gently until he was on his back. He didn’t want to open his eyes-he didn’t want to go back to that place that he had just been…he couldn’t think of the words that had been spoken to him. As he laid there, Andy could hear sounds in the background-water crashing against rocks and someone sniffling from above him. Andy knew that he needed to open his eyes-he had to see where Satan had sent him.
Slowly and doing it one eye at a time, Andy popped his blue eyes open and his breath caught in his throat. The most beautiful angel was looking down on him, her white blonde hair shining underneath her halo as she gazed down at him with a relieved look on her face. Was he in Heaven? Andy blinked a few times and as he laid there he realized that the person above him was not an angel and that her halo was only the sun shining brightly down on them as she hovered over him.
Lily…his Lily.
“An-Andy? Are you okay?” Lily asked him and Andy said nothing as he sat up, one hand going to the back of his head while the other reached out and touched her face. She had been crying, he could tell by the moisture on his fingertips and the way her bottom lip was trembling.
“I-um…I mean yeah I guess so. What happened?” He asked as he rubbed the back of his head and things began to get a little clearer. All of the guys were standing around the two of them in a circle and as Andy looked up he saw that they all held looks of concern for him.
“We were joking around and you looked like you were about to get up and go out towards the water and I only looked away for a second and then you were on the ground, holding your head in pain. What happened dude?” Ashley asked as he held out a hand and Andy took it to help himself up. He reached down and helped Lily up from behind and all of the guys backed up a few steps to give them some space.
“I-I don’t really know. I remember talking to you, then I got this terrible pain in my head and then when I woke up I was back in Hell…” Andy said, his voice sad and confused and Lily’s eyes grew wide at the very mention of Hell.
“What?! How did you go back to Hell? You were laying here for the longest time…I-I thought you had died…” Lily said as she moved to cling to him and Andy only held on to her tightly as he grazed his lips over the top of her head and looked over to Ashley.
“Satan summoned me. Have you heard anything about that being possible?” Andy trained his eyes on Ashley, but he never let go of Lily and he could feel her shaking beneath him. She was terrified-she thought he had died and Andy knew that that was her greatest fear.
“I-I have heard that he can do that with some of his more loyal soldiers. Maybe it’s because you’re technically his son? I mean you two are linked by blood…” Ashley said as he rubbed a tattooed hand on the back of his neck and looked at Andy sadly.
Andy thought quietly to himself for a moment, biting down on his lip ring as he looked out over the water and saw that the sun was beginning to fade. They needed to keep moving on-they had to stop staying in one place for so long and Andy knew that it was for that reason that Satan had been able to find him. He grew sad as he looked away from the sunset and down at the girl in his arms.
Little Lily-so fragile and innocent as she looked up at him with her big lavender eyes and he felt his heart melt as her bottom lip continued to tremble and her tears kept falling from her gorgeous eyes. Andy said nothing as he leaned down and kissed her cheeks, ridding her of her tears and Lily only smiled up at him and sniffed loudly as he pulled away.
“Guys…” Andy said as he looked to the group and saw that they had all moved so that they were standing in front of him.
“Yeah?”
“Hmm?”
"Wha?”
"What’s up man?” They all asked at once and Andy only smirked as he looked from them and down to Lily before training his site back on his four best friends. He pulled Lily closer to him and he held her there tightly as he opened his mouth and spoke.
“I think we’re gonna need a bigger army…”
He felt around himself blindly, feeling rough stone against his finger tips and suddenly his blue eyes popped open and his mouth dropped open in a silent gasp. The moon above him was blood red, the air was filled with smoke and he could hear the distant screaming of the ones who were being tortured. He knew where he was-he had no idea how he had gotten there-but he had lived in this wretched place for over two thousand years.
