Chapter 1 The Devil

Who is the devil?.Some called him Lucifer,others called him Satan. They were practically twins but there were more of them and the youngest was by far the greatest.Lucifer was the fallen angel of pride but he wasn't Pride.Lucifer and Satan attempted a coup.

It of course failed and they both fell.

But,not without taking 1/3 of the angels with him.Those angels mingled with humans and their children became the demons.God destroyed them with Wrath that poured out water onto the earth.It caused a flood that destroyed all the living.But they weren't gone they became ghosts roaming the earth after being banished to the underworld.Their parents,the fallen angels became deities.Those Deities had fetish priests and seers.There were seven major Fallen angels,Lucifer, Asmodeus,Satan,Beelzebub,Baal, Leviathan and Belphegor.The Devil was a title chosen by the seven princes.Satan was the Devil in World wars and Lucifer was King in the fall of man and Babel.It had switched for generations between these two until now.

The kingdom of hell wanted a new devil. The question was,who of the seven.And would Lucifer or Satan allow.There could be only one way to know.

The demons, neutral spirits and ghosts gathered infront of the prestigious throne of hell.They had come to speak their minds to the two ancient kings of hell.For millions of years they served both these kings with undying loyalty,not to forget the sacrifices they made to ensure hell was a formidable kingdom to heaven.All they ever got in return was silence from Lucifer and angry fits of rage by Satan who snapped anytime things didn't go his way.He could sometimes slaughter his own followers,blinded by his rage or just for the pleasure of it.They didn't blame him much,they decided to follow this psychopath to hell and back.But today of all days they had enough and joining together in massive numbers they planned to bring a change to how things went on in the kingdom of hell.

Their spokesperson,Leviathan their own brother who cared about none of this but probably being the Angel of Envy,just wanted his twin brothers off the throne broke the ice as the tension in the throne hall soared above normal,"Dear lords of hell,your fellow brethren have served you tirelessly from beyond time and the beginning of the civilizations.They never asked for much in return and were ready to lay down themselves for the Almighty rebellion but today they want something from their lords,a request that should be easily granted given the fact that they have toiled to make this kingdom a global empire and deserve to be listened to".

Lucifer relaxed a little bit more in his seat and asked,"What is their request brother,make it quick,the humans are in rush to fall from grace and into the embrace of the fires of hell". Leviathan replied,"They want a new king,a change in the regime and they don't want you or Satan as options".

Just like that a bombshell went off as Satan shouted with horrifying reverberation throughout the hall,"How dare you Imbeciles,have you all lost your sanity or have you forgotten who you all speak to at this moment.If anyone here thinks they can stand before me to challenge the throne then,let him come out this moment!!".

The way Satan spoke should have scared the living hell out of all of them but Leviathan was chosen for a reason,what was Satan going to do,fight his own brother,an equally powerful prince of hell. Leviathan retorted in the coldest way possible,"Satan!!!, don't forget,we gave you that crown!!!.We follow you both not because of fear but due to a deep respect you would surely not want to lose".As he said this,it was like the gathering had united in heart,body and mind,no one flinched,no one seemed afraid and everyone seemed to be giving Satan that "We made you who you are"vibe.

"So what's it going to be brother,will you fight us all or shut up and listen to the voice of the people", Leviathan fiercely asked.Satan backed off to the side of Lucifer and looking a little weary of the menacing eyes of the hosts of hell he whispered a question in Lucifer's ears,"What shall we do brother?".

Lucifer stood up elegantly out of his seat and declared,"Let's say we agree to your proposal,which one of you selfish pricks will actually choose someone except their selves."Let us decide.We will sort that out ourselves",they exclaimed.Lucifer amazed on how resolute they were finally asked,"So who do you all propose".
