“You can't destroy the earth or the heavens, that was not the plan,” I groan and turn at my sister's appearance, though my darkness does not stop as it continues killing everything in its path and turning it black. My sister lands, and my eyebrows raise as the dead grass beneath her gains life. She also seems to notice, but shakes her head before looking at me. “You can't kill innocent people. Michael is your enemy, not them.” I scoff as I turn, not ready to hear her lecture.

“Killing him is not enough. He will suffer, everyone will suffer.” I deem as the pain echos through me, quickly turning into malice.

“Thana you can't do this-”

“Enough!” I shriek as I face her, fist clenched at my sides. “You don't get to tell me what to do, you don't get to be my moral compass!"

Avalyn sighs as she takes a step towards me. “I'm not trying to be, but you need to cool down.”

My eye twitches at her remarks as darkness sparks around my hands. “Calm down!” I yell, taking a thunderous step towards her. “What if I killed Raphael, would you be able to calm down?” The surrounding sky turns dark, and the clouds roll with thunder and lightening, booming as if echoing my words. “You've constantly been the good guy, always had a happy ending. Even now you are an angel, you deliver souls,” I shout. “I take them, I'm the bad guy even though I'm only delivering them,” I scream out, making Avalyn flinch.

“But I know it's not your fault that's why I'm not trying to kill you, so leave before I change my mind!" I roar out as the winds around me pick up. Avalyn shakes her head.

“I'm going to help you just hold on a little longer,” she whispers before turning and flying back to heaven.

Demons and the sins land around me, smirks and hungry eyes looking straight at me. “We will not bow to you just because Lucifer is dead.” Wrath yells out, and I see the other sins nod in agreement.”

A laugh leaves me as I roll my shoulders back and look him straight in the eyes. “Good, because I don't demand you to bow… I demand you to kneel.” I yell as I stomp my foot, making every sin and demon fall to their knees. “Anyone who doesn't do as I say dies without a second thought.”

“Well, I guess you better make an example out of me,” I glare at Michael's cocky attitude and eye the other archangels and angel soldiers with him. I smirk before popping my fingers and getting into a fighting stance.

“Michael and the archangels are mine, everyone else, kill them with no remorse.” I command, and the sins and demons instantly charge. I bring out my scythe disguised as a pen and will it to transform into a long sword. Furthermore, I then make eye contact with Michael and smirk as he brings out a golden long sword. A battle cry leaves him as he charges at me. I expertly dodge him and counter react with a drive to his leg. He recovers quickly, throwing another blow and I catch it with my blade.

Avalyns POV

I land in another spot of earth and glance around. I wince as I see everything destroyed or turned to a black statue. I furrow my eyebrows as the spot underneath me comes back to life, a flower even blooming underneath me. “Everything dies with Thana's touch, but everything comes back to life with mine,” I ponder out loud as I peer around at the chaos.

Buildings are collapsed and people are frozen in their spots, black statues, or dead in a pool of blood from the demons. Thana has really outdone herself.

“How did you do that?” Morana states, as she looks in awe at the green grass around my feet. I jump and turn to see her and Raphael landing on the dead black grass. I flinch at an explosion as another building collapses, as a demon laughs wildly as he rides the debris down.

“I don't know, it must be because of the kind of Goddess I am.” I shrug and like a light bulb goes off and Raphael sighs.

“Please tell me you've figured it out and can explain to her.” She looks at him as her eyebrows furrow together.

“You know?” She narrows her eyes at him and crosses her arms.

“Yes, but I can't say because the goddess won't allow it, literally.” Morana goes to answer but is cut off.

“What the hell did you do!” I turn to see Ittsy landing in front of me, cuts and bruises littering her body, “Thana has lost her fucking mind and I keep getting attacked by demons!” She roars before taking a shot from a flask.

Morana yelps as she jumps behind me. I blink and shake my head. “One of the reapers betrayed us and killed Lucifer.” I breathe out. I see her go stiff as her eye twitches. She lifts the flask and downs the whole thing before chunking it behind her, unknowingly hitting a demon in the head causing it to growl and head for us. She groans before doing a backflip and landing on the demon's back and ripping his head off in one swift motion.

“Holy shit,” Morana whispers from behind me.

“Please tell me you know what kind of goddess you are.” Ittzy states as she stomps over.

"I-I guess a light goddess,” I whisper and shrug, too much is going on. I can't seem to think straight. The pieces are all around me, but I can't seem to put them together.

She grabs my shoulders and shakes me. “No, you are the goddess of life. Your sister is the goddess of death!” My eyes widen in shock and I feel something in me seem to unlock as my body glows. I hear a sigh of relief from Raphael as Ittsy steps away. “The goddess can be mad all she wants, we don't have time for you to try to process it, you have to talk some sense in to your twin.”

A smile spreads across my face. “No, I just have to give her a happy ending,” I state as I turn and quickly fly back to heaven, the three following me. I spot Lucifer and start rushing over. Before I can reach him, his eyes flutter open, and he gasps for air. His hand goes to his chest, and he grins as he feels the closed wound I skid to a stop in surprise. “How?” Morana starts and Lucifer looks up at us and smirks as he stands and dusts himself off.

“Well, I knew my brother would try a dirty trick, I just didn't know what he had up his sleeve, and I didn't have time to make a clone of myself.” He calmly states as he adjusts the cuffs of his sleeves. He then reaches into his pocket and pulls out a bag of blue pills. “So I had these made. If I die in twenty-four hours of taking one, it allows my body to heal and bring me back.” He looks around and grins at the mess surrounding us, both dead angels and demons. Thankfully no reapers, reapers were excellent on the defensive, and they don't necessarily like to kill, knowing angels don't have an afterlife. This carnage was mostly the result if demons and angels.

“I'm guessing my love has lost her shit,” Lucifer sighs as he takes out a dagger. “She made me promise to kill if she did so.” I narrow my eyes at him and he smirks.

“I'm using this on my brother. Thana is marrying me after I bring her ass back.” He toys with the blade. “A little payback is due.”

“No.”

He gives me a look as I shake my head. “We are not killing him, it will ruin the balance, we have to subdue him, he will face the consequences later.” Plus, I believe Michael deserved worse than death.

“Then let me go see my angel in action,” Ittsy snorts at Lucifer's words, all of us then spread our wings and the settle back down to earth. Lucifer looks around in awe at the destruction. “Well, I believe she has the blessing of the demons and sins for the wedding,” Lucifer muses.

“Lover boy, why don't you come back down to reality instead of planning your wedding,” Ittsy deadpans as she looks pointedly at him.

I watch the bicker as we walk towards the fighting, stepping over debris and dead bodies. The wind whips around me uncontrollable as if it doesn't know what direction to go. The sky thunders and lights up sporadically, but each step I take brings life back to our surroundings, even though it's not taking over the darkness, leaving me puzzled.

“So is Thana stronger than I? I thought we were equals?” I question, wondering why my powers were not covering grounds like hers. Ittsy glances back at me before smiling.

“She is experiencing a more powerful emotion than you are.” She looks back in front of her as she continues. “If you were angry and grieving, you would be her match, but you're more calm and collected.” I nod in understanding. Raphael sneaks his hand in mine and gives me an encouraging smile.

“Look at how sexy and beautiful she is,” Lucifer whispers in awe as he watches Thana glide around the battlefield taking shots at Michael. She is winning the fight shamelessly. Morana raises her eyebrows as she glances back at Thana.

“I was thinking more like scary and powerful.” She rubs her chin as she stares back at Lucifer. “Are us reapers invited to the wedding?” Ittsy facepalms and groans, making both Raphael and I snicker.

“Come on, people, I'm not supposed to be the serious one here. Get it together, you fanatics,” Ittsy snaps her fingers at both of them, making Lucifer roll his eyes and smirk. He holds out his hand and a sword appears.

“Let me just fight beside my wife's side for a moment, and then I'll subdue Michael and bring my lover back to clarity,” He sighs before shaking his head and murmuring, “Too bad we can't destroy the world together.” All of us shoot him a glare, making him through his hands up, “Kidding, not really” He clears his throat and with a wink takes off.

“This is literally the end of the world we are dealing with, and he is making googly eyes at her,” Ittsy grumbles, taking another flask out and taking a shot. Morana sighs dreamily.

“I know, isn't it romantic.”

“Alright look alive people let's go, make sure to protect Lucifer, Thana and Avalyn,” Raphael commands, and I watch him holding a sword of his own. Ittsy smirks, letting her claws lengthen and Morana takes out her scythe. All of us take off quickly heading into battle. Morana mostly knocks people unconscious, trying not to kill anyone, Raphael seems to follow her lead.

“Wahahahahahaha!” I turn to see Ittsy ripping demons and angels to shreds, going so far as to rip an angel's head off with her teeth. I wince and struggle to shake the image of the scene from my mind. I try to follow Morana's lead as I move my way to Lucifer and Thana. She hasn't noticed him yet as he fights his way behind her, quietly giving orders to the demons to stop killing and make the angels back off. My eyes settle on Michael and Thana before looking at Lucifer who is almost at Thana he glances at me and nods and I quickly lung knocking Michael out of Thana's reach.

“What the hell are you doing? Avalyn get back to heaven, so I can kill her!” Michael yells at me and kicks me off him.

“Really? Because it looks like she was kicking your ass.” I say as I get into a defensive stance, making sure to keep my emotions in check. I can't kill him, no matter how much I want to.

Thana's Pov

I blink to make sure what I'm seeing is correct, my sister fighting Michael. Guess she came to her senses and realized I was right, I look around confused as to why the demons and angels have slowly stopped fighting, before I can yell out a command an arm hooks around my waist and pulls me to a rock-hard chest. “Hello Angel,” the voice cooly caresses my ear and I quickly turn in his hold.  My heart hammers in my chest at the bright red eyes looking at me with love and admiration. "I love what you did to the place," He tilts his head and motions around with a gleam in his eyes and a smirk on his lips. I gasp and take a step back and his eyes trail over my outfit. "You are perfect, you already look like the queen of hell."

Before he can say another word I back hand him across the face, tears brim my eyes. His smirk grows as he looks back at me rubbing his face where I smacked him. He chuckles as he takes a step forwarded not affected by my glare. He cups my cheeks and looks into my eyes, "Let me see those red eyes off yours,” He whispers, and I close my eyes and shake my head a sob leaving me as I collapse into his embrace.

"You died," I sob shaking my head and he strokes my hair rocking us back and forth. To many emotions are radiating through me, relief seems to overcome them all as I grab him tighter, trying to get impossibly close to him.

"I couldn't tell you, I needed your reaction to be real so Michael wouldn't be suspicious but I tried to warn you." He strokes his fingers through my hair as I continue to try and process all that has happened. I look up at him and he smiles at me. "There are those beautiful eyes." He then kisses my forehead. "I told you I wanted you, I always get what I want angel." I touch his face making sure he is real.

"You guys are going to make me throw up. I look to michael to see him coughing up blood as Avalyn throws him on the ground, Lucifer and I stand up and walk up to him as does the others. Avalyn comes up to me and hugs me and I hesitantly hug her back.

"I'm sorry," I whisper and she shakes her head.

“I would have done the same.” She steps back and motions around. “In case you haven't figured it out, I'm the goddess of life and you're the goddess of death.” My eyebrows raise in shock as I look around. Now to fix my mess, I grab Avalyns hand and look at her.

“We probably should use both of our powers, so you don't bring things that were already dead back to life,” I tease, and Avalyn smiles but agrees. Our powers mix and Earth goes back to how it was. The sky clears up and color comes back to the world, and the sounds of life murmurs through the air.

“Now as for Michael, we are going to fix that god complex of yours,” Avalyn smirks as she looks at me and winks. Her hand glow towards Michael, who glares at us. “You will go through the cycle of life, and at the end if you've learned your lesson you can come back as an archangel.”

I smirk, seeing where she was going with this, “But if you don't, you'll be reincarnated all over again until you learn your lesson.” I conclude, and his eyes widen in terror.

“What? no, I will not live as an earthling!” He shouts, but before he can finish Avalyn absorbs his grace, she holds the ball of white life in her hands and sends it off to a hospital to be absorbed by a newborn. She then looks at Morana.

“I hate to give you this task, but I trust you the most. You will go through a cycle with him to make sure he is on the right track,” Morana smiles widely as she embraces Avalyn in a hug.

“I am honored.” She then backs up and bows to us both before Avalyn does the same and transports her into a newborn. I playfully glare at Avalyn.

“Hey, that was my best friend,” I chuckle and elbow her playfully. She rolls her eyes and shrugs. Though I am happy that Morana gets to enjoy humanity again.

“At least you have me.” She giggles as Lucifer wraps his arms around me.

“And if I recall we are supposed to be husband and wife, I'm already planning the honeymoon.” I blush while Ittsy gags at his words and takes another swig of her flask.

“Since we are all done here, I'm going home. Maybe now the moon goddess will grant me death.” She groans and I smirk.

“Don't worry, I'll come get you in a few weeks,” Ittsy's eyes snap at mine, hope swimming in her eyes for the first time in centuries. She then smiles and nods before turning and flying away. I look at Avalyn who looks lovingly at Raphael, now we both can finally focus on our happy ending, and finish cleaning this mess up.

Funny, how both life and death are involved in happy endings.
