Why Michael?? Is God punishing me once more??
Lucifer: "Please God! I beg of you! Show me mercy!"
Michael: "Oh Father heard you alright, but he sent me down here to remind you that you are no longer his son. Just a monster that continues to be a burden on him for having created it. You mean nothing to us anymore you monster"
Lucifer: "Please. I don't want anything to do with evil anymore. I just ask for God's help. I did not ask for you to pay me a visit brother"
Michael: "Just know he won't answer your prayers. He loves me waaaaay more. You are forgotten by all of us. Nobody loves you. Accept your fate"
Lucifer: "If God hates me, then fine. But I will not let you get away with what you said. I am not sweet little Samael anymore. I am Lucifer Morningstar and I will gut you like a fucking fish if you don't leave right now!"
Michael: *gasps* wow Lucifer. Only you would say such cruel things. I was just chatting with you! I didn't know you were so sensitive you little Bitch! Game on!"
Michael unsheathed his sword and whipped it towards my head. Then I took out my heavenly sword. I haven't used it in a while since everyone down here is beneath me. But now, I need it more than ever before. I used my sword to block Michael's "surprise" attack. I felt my horns grow out and my eyes glow red.
Michael: "Now that's the Lucifer everyone loves and knows~"
Lucifer: "Stop trying to manipulate me and finish what you started asshole!!!"
I lunged towards him with my blazing sword and grazed his eye with it. He screamed as he held his eye.
Michael: "You coward! Why are you trying to ruin my beautiful face! I am not risking you ruining my image anymore. Goodbye Lucifer. Nobody will answer your prayers"
Then Michael left, leaving me on my knees in tears.
Lucifer: "If God won't answer my prayers, I will take matters into my own hands. I give up. She will be mine one way or another. I need her. I crave her presence beside me in my kingdom. I need my Queen. . .

Rose's Perspective. . .

Finally. I have space to myself. Away from Lucifer and all the crap I've been through in life. My mom is safe and so is everyone else left in this world that I love. Sometimes, I just think back to the times in Mexico with my papi. In the state of Guanajuato. We live in a Rancho by Ocampo called La Haciendita. Lots of family and friends live there and have beautiful houses. I imagine I am over there with my dad, watching the peacocks play around and the baby chickens roam free with their mothers. And the usual cries of the mother turkey when one of her children or adopted chicken children are lost.

I imagine just walking around La Haciendita, with the colorful houses and people who I don't know that are family waving hi to me. Oh how I miss those times. When my father taught me to drive in the bean field at 9 years old. When I played Rummikub with my Abuelito and Abuelita and enjoyed the beautiful sight of the Milky Way in the pitch black backyard in the night. The freedom, the happiness. Mexico. But now he is gone. Mexico just feels like a burning memory of the past I long to go back to. I feel like every time I go there now, the scar in my heart reopens and bleeds out my pain. My suffering. My mourning.

Does God hate me for talking to Lucifer now? Is he punishing me? If so who is next? Take me dammit! Take me and just let me rot in hell! I don't want to be here! I felt a huge pain in my heart.

Song: "Feel" by Robbie Williams

Rose: "Come on hold my hand
I wanna contact the living
Not sure I understand
This role I've been given
I sit and talk to God
And he just laughs at my plans
My head speaks a language
I don't understand

I just wanna feel
Real love feel the home that I live in
Cause I got too much life
Running through my veins
Going to waste

I don't wanna die
But I ain't keen on living either
Before I fall in love
I'm preparing to leave

Scared myself to death
That's why I keep on running
Before I've arrived
I can see myself coming

I just wanna feel
Real love
feel the home that I live in
Cause I got too much life
Running through my veins
Going to waste
And I need to feel real love
And a life ever after
I cannot get enough

I just wanna feel
Real love
Feel the home that I live in
I got too much love
Running through my veins
To go to waste
I just want to feel
Real love
And a life ever after
There's a hole in my soul
You can see it in my face
It's a real big place

Come on hold my hand
I wanna contact the living
Not sure I understand
This role I've been given
Not sure I understand
Not sure I understand
Not sure I understand
Not sure I understand"

End of Song. . .

I was on my knees, sobbing after I finished singing. I felt nothing but pain. Pain in my heart. I was leaving hope. My faith is gone. I don't care anymore. I just don't want to feel pain anymore.

Lucifer: "I can help you dear. I will be your hope"

Rose: "No! I cannot do this with you anymore! Just leave me be!"

Lucifer then held onto me and brought me close to him. I gasped as I stared at his face. He was beautiful. He could fool you for an Angel. But he wasn't. Not anymore. He then spun me and dipped me down

Song "El Duelo—Unplugged" by La Ley
It is in Spanish but Lucifer can speak every language. Plus Rose is Mexican and speaks fluently in Spanish.

Lucifer: "Con lagrima
de fe sobre tu piel
Olvidé la grieta que dejo tu amor
Pero ese instinto taurino de tu ser
Me obligo a azortarte

Both: "uuuuh Tiernamiente
Sin dolor no te haces feliz
Sin dolor no te haces feliz
Sin amor
No sufres mas"

Rose: "Toda esa noche
Provocaste ver en mi
Lo que a nadie muestro
En la intimidad
Pero ese forma
de mirada que hay en ti
Me obligo a matarte"

Both: "uuuuuu Lentamente
Sin dolor no te haces feliz
Sin dolor no te haces feliz
Sin amor
Tiernamente

Sin dolor no te haces feliz
Sin dolor no te haces feliz
Sin amor".
Music gets more upbeat and they start dancing together. Rose sings beautifully

Both: "Sin dolor no te haces feliz!
Sin dolor no te haces feliz!
Sin amor~
Tiernamente!"

Lucifer:  "Sin dolor no te haces feliz
Rose: "ahhhhhhhh!
Lucifer: "Sin dolor no te haces feliz!
Sin amor!!
Rose: "aaaaaaaaaaaow"
Lucifer: "no sufres mas~"
Romantic Spanish music
Rose: "aaaaaaaaow"

End of song

We were both panting as we embraced each other after our duet and were very close to kissing. Our lips only centimeters apart. It was clear he felt pain too. But no. I couldn't be with him. How could I even think about that! Lucifer was inching closer to me, attempting to close the gap between our lips. But I pushed him back. Leaving him shocked.
Rose: "Don't you dare try to kiss me devil!"
Lucifer: "Come on, I thought we bonded for a moment!"

Rose: "No te atreves güey!!" (Don't you dare asshole)
I smacked him on the face, making him wince in pain.
Lucifer: "Alright, fine. But I am not leaving forever. I will be back. . ."
Then Lucifer disappeared. Why is he such an asshole! Guhhh!!!!! It doesn't even seem like God wants to help me anymore. Everyone leave me alone!!
I went to my room and scrolled through the pictures on my phone. I saw the pictures of Nate and I. I started sobbing. Then a picture of my father and I popped up. I need to stop torturing myself too. I can't live like this!

Next day. . .
I got ready for mass on Sunday. I put on my veil and natural makeup. As I was getting ready, I thought I saw a shadow in the shape of a man. But, that shadow quickly disappeared. It was odd, but I just shrugged it off. God is there for me. I got in my car and went to the church. But, as soon as I walked in, the music of the mass stopped playing and everyone stared at me. I was so anxious. Why the hell are they staring at me like I have giant horns and a pentagram drawn on my face?
Rose: "Is everyone alright? What is wrong?"
Priest: "Leave the house of God now. We don't want you here. You betrayed God"
Rose: "What? I did no such thing! I am but a loyal servant of our lord"
Random Old Lady: "Lies! Blasphemy! Leave!"
Whole church: "Leave sympathizer of Lucifer! Leave!"

Rose: "Sympathizer? I had no choice but to hear his story! There is a huge misunderstanding here! I never wanted anything to do with that evil man!"
Old Lady: "You are to be his bride! You are not welcome in the house of God!"
There was a lot of commotion in the church as people ran up to me like animals. They all latched onto a part of my body and started dragging me away from the altar.
Rose: "No! Please! I am a practicing Catholic! I do not stand with Lucifer! Please!!"
I started sobbing. Even my own church rejects me. How do they know? Is this truly God doing this?? Why God? What have I done to deserve this horrible punishment? Please show me mercy!

Rose: "Help!!!!!"
They all just scowled at me and threw me out of the church, then they turned around as if nothing happened. They just looked at me with confusion as I lay on the floor in front of the church.
Rose: "Why God?? Why?!!!"
I was sobbing a lot and then I felt a hand on my back, comforting me.
Rose: "Lucifer, if you are trying to make me feel better, how about you just get out of my life forever!"
???: "Oh hush now Rose. I am not Lucifer. I will never go as low as being pathetic like that poor excuse of a man. I am but a holy man"
Rose: "W-who are you??"

???: "I am Saint Michael. A humble servant of our father. Though, he is no longer your father. He doesn't want an unholy child like you."
Rose: "But why?? I never sold my soul to the devil! I never even felt sympathy for him!"
Michael: "Because Rose, your soul is marked to him. You see, you belong with each other. That bond is awoken. You reek of Lucifer"
Rose: "What?? I never asked for this! This is not fair! I belong to nobody! The only person I ever belonged to was Nate! That's it! But even he was taken from me! I've worshipped you all my life. I've done nothing but serve God. I never thought he would abandon me when priests always preach about God always being there for you!"
Michael: "Don't you dare speak of God in such a way! You see? You and Lucifer are the same. So sweet, you guys were made for each other~ you disgusting sinner"
Michael grabbed me and threw me to the ground, I tried screaming for help from the people passing by but they acted like I was invisible. Nobody was helping me. Michael unsheathed his giant sword.
Michael: "Now, Lucifer doesn't deserve a bride. So I will kill you before you become his gift. Goodbye Rose"
Rose: "Noooooo!"
Then all of a sudden I saw a black gloved hand punch Michael in the face, sending him far back away from me. Then those black hands wrapped around my waist as I felt a figure press against me.
Lucifer: "It's alright Rose~ I've got you. I won't let anyone hurt you"
Then he pressed his lips against my cheek to give me a peck and let me go. He smiled at me sweetly then glared back at Michael.
Lucifer: "Don't you dare try to kill her! You can go in my castle and insult me all you want, but don't you dare hurt Rose!"
Michael: "Pft, please. Like I will obey you. I am ordered to do anything but obey you"
Lucifer: "Then let's fight. Come on, I am waiting~"
Then Lucifer unsheathed his blazing sword and got in a fighting stance. Then Michael also got in a fighting stance as well and charged at Lucifer. Their swords started clashing as they quickly fought each other. They had their wings out and fought in the air. I watched them from below as they fought in the sky.  Each clash struck with hatred for each other. Their faces seething with rage. Then Lucifer fell to the ground, Michael standing on him.
Michael: "What happened to the great and powerful Lucifer? Did he get weak? Hm, not a challenge at all"
No, he is about to kill him. He saved me, I don't want to be in his debt. So I need to save him. I saw Lucifer's sword beside me. I picked it up and charged towards Michael. I came from behind and stabbed his back. Michael gasped and fell off of Lucifer. I had golden blood all over me. Lucifer smiled at me and mouthed a 'thank you'. I smiled back at him and helped him up. Wait, did I just smile at him? Ughhh. Michael groaned and slowly stood up.
Michael: "This is not over Lucifer. I have God on my side. I will get you and your girl."
Rose: "Hey! I am not his girl!"
Lucifer: "Not yet~"
Rose: "Shut the fuck up!"
Michael just rolled his eyes and flew up to heaven.
Lucifer: "Well, thank you love~"
Rose: "Don't thank me. I just didn't want to be in your debt for saving my life. Consider it even."
Lucifer: "Sure, whatever you say Rose~"
He winked at me and kissed my forehead. I blushed a little then shook it off.
Rose: "Stop toying with me!!"
Lucifer: "mmmm, nope! Never~"
He kissed my cheek and then flew down.
Rose: "Ugh, asshole!"
I just scoffed and walked away from the church. Never again. I do not want to summon Saint Michael with my presence by a church. I went in my car and drove home. Never again. . .
