Fallen Angels

As Vic opened the gates, I expected a slew of demons and hell hounds to pour out. However we were met with darkness. Nothing lay in wait before us as far as we knew. Everyone looked to me for guidance. “Vic light up the entry way. Once it is lit everyone proceed cautiously. We know what’s going on above us, we don’t know what’s happening below us. Kill any demon, fallen, or hound you see. This is war!” I nodded to CC who started barking out orders on the ranks and how everyone would proceed. I turned back to Vic.

“Can you make me invisible?” He shook his head.
“There is no way I can make you completely invisible. I can conceal you and make you look kind of like one of the Fallen but if you were to engage in combat, your disguise would wear off.” He warned. I nodded and closed my eyes as he went to work.

When I opened them again, I felt no different. I looked at my body and it looked the same. I gave Vic a questioning look.

“You look the same to yourself but to us you look like a Fallen with no wings.” I nodded.
“Thank you.” He clapped me on the shoulder.
“Good luck.”
“Same to you.”

And with that I was off. I marched in at the rear with CC as protection so none of our troops would try and fight me. ONce we all emerged into the first ring of hell, it was empty. All the stalls and people we had seen last time were gone. Limbo was empty.

The next circle was Lust. I knew that it wouldn’t be empty. As the soldiers marched down, I said a quick goodbye to CC and found my own way down. Sure enough as I reached the second level, demons were milling about. They were all surrounded by very attractive females. Most the men on this level seemed to be in a trance. They were wondering from female to female. None of them ever stayed more than a few minutes with one before wandering to the next. I couldn't figure out what was going on but I didn’t have the time. I started searching for a way even further into hell when I felt a tap on my shoulder. I turned around to come face to face with one of the most gorgeous women I had ever seen. When she opened her mouth to speak, I could feel my willpower slipping away.

“Hello handsome.” She greeted. “You look so tired. Why don’t you stay and rest a while.” She suggested, her voice sweeter than honey. I felt myself nod as he took my hand and led me to a bed.

She pushed me down and I landed on my back. She straddled me and started kissing my neck. I felt my hands reach up and pull her closer to me. It was like my body was being controlled. I had no idea what I was doing, I was just doing it. My hands slid to the small of her back and she nipped my neck. Her hands found the hem of my shirt and she pulled it up, revealing my torso. She kissed her way down my chest and started to unbutton my pants. I wrapped my fingers in her hair and tilted my head back as she started to undress me. As she slipped out of her dress and stood naked before me I felt a twinge of something. I couldn’t quite place it. My thoughts were all muddled and jumbled. She climbed back on the bed and started kissing me again. My hands groped her breasts but something felt wrong.

“Just give in. Become mine.” She whispered in my ear. She softly nipped it before placing soft kisses along my jaw and on my lips. As soon as she kissed me, I heard a voice in the back of my head crying out for me.
“Andy..Andy..Andy my love, come back to me.” It cried.

I couldn’t place the voice but it sounded familiar. I focused on it and soon a face came to mind. It was an innocent face, then it clicked. The face was Alese, my wife. I shoved the lady off of me and quickly pulled up my pants. This time the girl who climbed on the bed was not the one who I had just seen.

She had scaly skin and a tail. Her hair was falling out and her teeth were rotted and her tongue was forked. She lashed at me with her nails. I narrowly avoided her attack and flipped back off the bed. When I looked for an escape route I noticed all the woman who I had previously found attractive, were now hideous and snake like, just like the one attacking me. I managed to get out of the vicinity of the bed but the girl scratched out and her sisters all turned my direction. I took to the air just as two of them beasts lashed out at me. I flew above them looking for a way out. I spotted a hole in the floor with what appeared to be stairs. I dove for it, getting a few nicks on the way down, unsure as to whether it was from the creatures or the rocks.

I flew straight down in darkness for a few minutes until I smelt something peculiar. Seconds later I saw a light. I flew for it and landed in a room and I was blinded by gold. Piles of it were everywhere. It was all I saw until I heard fighting. I flew over the gold and saw two men fighting over a turkey leg. One gained the upperhand and pushed the other in a pile of boiling gravy. His screams echoed throughout the gold for seconds until they went under. The other man collapsed on a pile of gold and ate his food. I turned away from the sight and followed the smell I had smelled upon entering, it was my mother's apple pie. When I found the source of the smell I was disgusted. A very large man with too many fat rolls to count sat ontop of a throne of people eating pie and forcing others to bring him food. He was covered in all sorts of food. It was disgusting. If a person brought him food he didn’t want, he would throw them under him and move onto the next person. I shuddered and looked for an exit. I couldn't find one from the sky so I landed and searched on foot. Then I heard her voice again.

“Look under the ruler of this level.” She called out. I wanted to ask her what she meant but I knew she wouldn’t answer.

Instead I stopped to think. This was the third level, Gluttony. The ruler of this level had to be the apple pie man. I took to the sky once again and approached him. I examined him from all angles and I noticed that under his throne of living people, there was a handle to a door. I landed next to it and tried to open it but of course it wouldn’t budge. Also with my luck he had noticed I was there and looked down at me.

“Who are you?” His voice boomed. “And what do you want?”
“I want to go to the fourth level.” I answered honestly. The man's laughter rang out all across the level.
“You don’t get to leave. Everyone stays here and brings me food!” He yelled, swinging his arm down.

I jumped back but the shock of his fist caused the ground to shake. I fell over as he started to pummel the ground. I couldn't stay steady on my feet. I extended my wings and took to the air. The man was lashing out wildly to try and hit me. I quickly came up with a plan. I stole some food off of him and took off with it. Sure enough it enraged him and he managed to get to his feet and come after me, for a few steps. He collapsed on the ground and the people bringing him food cheered. I flew back to the door and after several attempts managed to get it open.

I descended further into hell to the fourth layer, Greed.

Notes

So how do you think the other levels of Hell will be? Keep in mind I am basing the layers off of Dante's Inferno so if you want a map, just google it.

How do you think Andy will handle it? What layers do you think he will struggle with? We saw how he had trouble with lust but not with gluttony, how will greed go? Only time will tell.

Hope you enjoyed!

Thanks for reading! <3
