Queen

Rain and thunder were common occurrences in the Underworld, but I didn't expect it to be so severe. Every time I heard lighting, I jumped and it didn't help that we had the Anti-Christ in the palace. Syn wanted to name him with me but that would mean I would have to see the child...that was not happening.

I usually wasn't this big of a pussy but after all these movies, I knew better. The only thing keeping me in the palace was Syn. I kicked him out of my room yesterday after we found out about the baby but I missed him.

The child was with him though, and I was NOT ready to face it. He said he believed that the baby talked to me but it didn't feel like it. It didn't talk to him at all so he was still skeptical. It couldn't be a coincidence that I AND the mother said it though.

I jumped when I heard a knock at my door and I walked towards it. There were eight new locks added to my door so after almost an entire minute, I opened the door and Syn rolled his eyes at me.

"Is all that necessary?" He questioned.

"Yes," I said as I peeked my head through the door. My eyes landed on the baby in his arms and I moved to close the door.

"Nope," Syn said as he stopped the door and pushed past me. I groaned when he made it into my room with the baby and I rolled my eyes at him.

"What do you want?" I asked.

He leaned down to me and kissed me on the lips before standing up straight. "I missed my girl."

"Okay, why'd you bring that?" I asked as I pointed at the baby.

Syn rolled his eyes at me as laid the baby on its stomach on my bed. He lifted himself on his small chubby arms just to fall back down and Syn grinned. "Did you see that?"

"I did. One step closer to destroying all of mankind," I said.

"Princess, seriously?" Syn asked. "He's harmless right now. Do you know how many people were afraid of me when I was born? Almost everyone. The Seers tried to kill me for fucks sake and they took Xavia because they were afraid for 'the end of the world'."

"Syn..."

"Just trust me on this," he urged. "Please."

I closed my eyes and willed myself not to bash my head into the wall. "Fine. I can't promise I'll like it."

"Thank you, I'm not asking you to like it," he said with a smile. I felt relieved that he didn't and I took a relaxing breath. "I'm telling you to love it eventually, you will be his mother after all."

"Syn!" I exclaimed.

He laughed softly and shook his head. "I'm joking, but I want you to try. I want us to do this together."

"I'll try," I mumbled.

"Thank you, Princess," he said huskily.

"Mhmm."

"I need to go," he muttered as he kept the baby away from the edge of the bed.

"Where?"

"To Lucifer's. I'm having a movie night with James and I'm taking him to school in the morning."

"That sounds nice."

"Yes, I'm thinking about officially adopting him," he said.

"Really?" I asked as I walked to a chair near him.

"I meant to before I died and I  feel like it's long overdue. I just need to talk to him and my father about it."

"Okay," I said with a nod. "Let me know how things go."

"Definitely," he said as he stood up from the bed. "You keep me updated too."

"On what?"

"You're babysitting our son," he teased as he gestured to the bubbly baby on the bed.

"What?!" I exclaimed.

"Yes," he said as he backed up to the door.

"Syn take this away," I said as I stood up from the chair.

"I'll text you about when he eats. I love you, Princess!" He closed the door and left me standing dumbfounded in the room. The door opened quickly again and he peeled his head in. "More than love you," he corrected. "Take care of him."

I rolled my eyes slowly turned back to the baby as he began to cry when his attempts at getting up were failing. I crossed my eyes and squinted at him as I watched him struggle. He sat up fine by himself the other day, I wasn't falling for this bullshit.

I was still scared shitless but I couldn't let a baby turn me into a bitch. He continued crying softly and my heart began to ache. I hated the sound of babies crying.

Stay strong. I took a deep breath and held my head high as I looked down at him. He needed to be shown who was in charge here.

"Listen motherfucker," I started as I walked towards the bed. "I run this bitch. You hear m-"

I screamed as the lights flickered on and off and when they stopped, I looked down at the baby. He was no longer laying on his stomach and crying. He was giving me the same blank stare from the other day and sitting in an upright position.

"A-as I was saying," I whispered in a frightened tone. "I am the Queen, you are a baby. You're tiny. Fuck with my family and I'll kick you."

He didn't react to what I said and continued looking at me. I waited for him to speak but all he did was lift his small arms for me to carry him. When I made no move to pick him up, small cries came for him and I rolled my eyes.

I lifted him from the bed and kept him at arm's length as I eyed him. His cute smile appeared on his face again and I frowned. How was he so adorable? I wanted to hate him.

When I was comfortable enough with him, I held him against my chest. He was relaxed in my hold and I began to question my memory. Did I imagine it? I couldn't have. I saw his tiny lips move. The disturbing image was so vivid in my mind.

I laid back onto my bed and sighed as I sat back against the pillow and headboards. The baby stayed quiet on my chest and I grabbed the remote from beside me and turned on the television.

I flipped through countless channels until I arrived on the news and my heart dropped. I saw the Seers having a party in their honor in Heaven. They were being celebrated...

I felt his small head and arms struggle to lift himself to turn to the TV. After many failed attempts, I picked him up and turned him towards it.

I looked back up to the TV to see the reporter interviewing Mary and I shook my head. "Mary, what is the current state of the world right now? Are we headed towards any danger?"

"Not at all," she said. "Even if we were, none of you at home with your families need to worry about it. We will abolish any dangers to this world. Trust in us and God."

I scoffed and rolled my eyes. They were the number one group of people on my hit list. I wanted to see them dead more than anything but it was almost impossible to do it. They were omniscient like God, they'd know any moves I'd make towards them.

My mind traveled back to the night that they took Xavia from me and I closed my eyes. I didn't want to remember, but my mind replayed the scenes in my mind. I remembered how Xavia felt in my arms as she took her last breath.

She was okay now I hoped, but I still lost her. When I opened my eyes a few tears fell down my cheek as I sniffled. The baby turned around to look up at me but I ignored it and wiped my tears.

"Stop staring at me," I whispered sadly. He ignored me and continued looking at me and I rolled my eyes. Finally, he turned back to the tv and I took a deep breath to calm down.

Suddenly, the lights and the TV completely shut off in the room. Everything was pitch dark and I couldn't even see my hand in front of me. I noticed that the child was no longer on me and I gasped.

"Evil baby person," I called as I felt around the bed. "I swear it you're trying to kill me right now."

The bed was empty from what I could feel and I had no idea which direction to turn. I felt along the edge of the bed to get an idea of where I was. When I figured it out, I walked in the direction of the door but tripped over something hard.

I screamed when I fell to the floor and I groaned in pain. "Shit," I said with a wince.

The lights in the room turned back on and I looked down at what I tripped on to see a dead body and I screamed. I backed up on the floor but bumped into something else and I turned to see another body behind me. Fear and unease crawled their way into my lungs and I looked around my room.

There weren't only two bloody bodies, there were multiple littered throughout the floor. I heard a tiny giggle from on my bed and I looked up to see the baby, completely covered in blood just sitting there and looking around.

I stood up slowly on shaky legs. The baby looked at me with a large smile and I cautiously picked up my phone from the nightstand. I watched him as I dialed Syn's number and called him.

After a few rings, he answered and I tried stopped my hands from shaking.

"You need to come here. We have a big problem."
