Vaggies pov

His body shook with pain as he took that arrow in the shoulder. The mysterious girl stared at him in disbelief at his act of mercy.

"Here you are protecting another defective angel. You just can't help yourself" we looked up to see husks smug grin.

"What is with you angels and killing your own" dad stood up with a glare.

"She failed her mission. Heavens army has no need for failures" he shrugged nonchalantly.

"Like I'm going to let that happen" he pulled out the arrow "let's go bitch! Quit hiding behind that girl and fight me like a man!"

"Tch I'm not suicidal" he glared at him "don't worry your highness, you'll get your turn soon enough" with that he flew away.

"Thank fuck" he muttered before passing out.

"Dad!"

Lute's pov

I sat in a chair as Lucifer cleaned up my wounds. I couldn't believe I was still alive. What use could they possibly see in me?

"Sorry we were so rough on you sweetie. I'm afraid me and Adam go a little crazy when it comes to our daughters" Lucifer gave me a kind smile.

"I understand" I nodded before sneaking a glance at the king "Will he be ok?"

"He'll be fine. Adam's not the type to stay down long. After getting dewinged by heaven he then proceeds to kick me out of my own castle. That's how stubborn he is" he chuckled lightly at the memory.

"You're not looking for revenge?" I looked at him in disbelief.

"Not really. Let's just say I hurt him just as much as he hurt me" he smiled awkwardly "still we're kinda getting past it. We made a pretty good team" he waved at Adam who flipped him off.

I nodded as I stood up and walked over to him. He gave me a smile "hey there, how are you feeling-"

"Why did you save me?" I cut him off.

"Huh?"

"Why did you save me? What purpose do you have for me?"

He sat up with an annoyed expression "what's your name?"

"I'm lute sir and seeing as you saved my life my sole purpose will be towards protecting you" I stood up straight.

"Ok lute, never call me sir again" he stood up "I saved you cause I didn't want to watch you die. I don't have any plans for you so drop it" he started to walk away.

"Wait!" I desperately followed after him "you have to tell me my purpose. I can't live without a purpose!" Tears streamed down my face. He stopped and turned to me.

"I can't tell you that. It's not your purpose if I have to pick it for you but I can help you find it" he bent down to my level "what do you like doing?"

"I like fighting" I said firmly.

"Do you? Or were you just told to like it?" I fell silent. He sighed "I guess we're starting from scratch. Come on"

We started with cooking. He handed me a knife but I figured my sword would be more effective which ended up making quite the mess. Next we tried pottery. Adam made a sculpture Of himself and on impulse I decapitated it. Adam shot me a glare, making me look away guiltily. Lastly we tried video games. After giving it my all I lost to Adam. In frustration I chucked the controller at the TV, breaking it.

"I don't think I'm good at anything" I sighed as I followed him on his trip around hell.

"Don't say that" he handed me a strange bun "it takes time to figure out what your good at. Here this is a hotdog. Try it"

I stared at it for a moment before taking a bite. My eyes lit up "I like it"

He slapped me on the back "this place gets some getting used to but I think you're going to fit in just fine"

"You really think so" I looked up at him hopefully.

"Sure. Trust me I struggled too but it'll get better. I'll be here to show you how" he gave me a smile that made my heart skip a beat.

"Well we should get going. Vaggie will worry if we stay out too long" he turned to walk away. It was then that I made up my mind.

"I've found my purpose" I called out to him.

He looked back "oh? And what's that?"

I took a deep breath "my purpose is you!"

"What!? That was what you said before" he gave a disappointed scowl.

"Yeah but this time it's my choice" I smiled.

"I guess it is" he chuckled "suit yourself. Just try not to be too overbearing. I'm an independent kinda guy"

"Understood" I smiled as I followed him home.
