Chapter Text
An old dusty book is removed from a book shelf by a gloved hand. The book is placed on the person’s lap after they blow the copious amount of dust off of the book, coughing at the dust as they did. The hand opens the book turning to the first page. The person starts narrating the first few pages. The narrator's voice sounded feminine.
“Long ago, a radiant city that was protected by shimmering golden gates known as Heaven. Ruled by beings of pure light, known by all as Angels. They worshipped things they considered good and shielded all from things they considered evil. One day, they created a planet we call ‘Earth’. They created the first two humans from the dust of the planet, one man and one woman. The man was named Adam and the woman was named Lilith. The first equals of mankind.”
The scene transitions from a dimly lit study room to a bright lush forest, with healthy trees and soft green grass, with a few green bushes and different flowers scattered everywhere, along with a large pond with lily pads on top. This place was known as the Garden of Eden. A woman wearing a white robe was seen sitting beside the large pond looking at her reflection while humming a simple melody. A figure was watching her in the shade under the trees behind her, fascinated by the woman’s beauty and enchanting voice.
The figure leaned forward to get a closer look at the woman but somehow lost their grip on the tree they were holding onto. They fell forward into a few bushes in front of where they hid, creating rustling sounds. The woman looked back at the sudden noise startled. She stood up and went to check it out, curiosity getting the best of her. The figure who caused the noise groaned out in slight pain. The woman crouched down and looking at the figure examining them closely.
The figure seemed to be a male, he was wearing a suit and a top hat with 6 wings poking out the back of it. His pale face turned gold in colour as he looked up at the gorgeous woman, realising he was caught. The woman gave the male a smile and introduced herself as ‘Lilith’. The male gave her a shy smile back before introducing himself as ‘Samael’.
The scene changes to the dimly lit study room once again now being able to see just a tiny bit of what the narrator/girl looked like. She had blonde hair tied into a bun by a spiky hair band, her face was a pale white colour.
“So this is how mom and dad met…” The same female voice pauses before she continues reading the book.
“Years passed as Samael and Lilith fell deeply in love with each other…Samael shared his hopes and dreams with Lilith. She always listened to him talk with fascination and awe. One day…”
The scene changes back to the forest. Samael flew from heaven down to the Garden of Eden landing softly on the grass in front of his now lover Lilith. Lips curved into a bright smile, eyes sparkling with excitement and wings flapping softly after landing.
“I’ve done it my love! Lilith I’ve finally done it!” Samael shouted with glee while bouncing on his heels.
“You’ve done it? You told them your ideas? Oh, my love! That is wonderful!” Lilith smiled in excitement for her lover as she rushed to him, pulling him into a hug which Samael returned.
“Wait!” Lilith suddenly pulled back from the hug to look Samael in the eyes. “What did they say? Did they say they would help?” Lilith questioned him slightly concerned while holding him by his shoulders.
“Well…not exactly! They said that they’d discuss it! They will get back to me once they’ve made their decision!” Lucifer told his lover optimistically. The bright smile still present on his face.
Lilith smiles softly hoping that heavenly elders would accept Samael’s ideas.
The scene changes to a court-like setting. Multiple angels staring down at Samael from their place above him.
“We’ve thought about it, Samael.” One of the angels spoke.
“Really? What was the decision you have come to?” Samael asked hopeful. Hoping they would give him a positive response. Hoping that they liked his ideas.
“No.” Another angel spoke.
Samael’s hopeful face fell into a face of shock, before it turned into a face of despair.
“What? Why not? I ask you heavenly elders! Why not?” Samael asked confused and frustrated.
“We’re terribly sorry Samael, but your ideas are far too dangerous and can cause imbalance and chaos…” yet another angel spoke, pitying the angel standing below them.
“Bu-but!” Samael tries to protest but is hushed by one of the elders.
“We have made our decision, Samael.” The heavenly elders all spoke simultaneously before disappearing and leaving Samael alone in the court-like room. He falls to his knees trying to process what had just happened.
Notes:
Prologue! Yippee!! Also I'm sorry if my grammar was bad, or if some stuff don't make sense, or if the dialogues boring ToT
I also took some inspo from another fic “Arencha Amendable” by marquisev
The inspo I took was Lucifer’s name before he fell ‘Samael’ and I got inspo for the Lucifer telling Lilith about how he shared his ideas with the elders and Charlie reading the storybook from the show and from the fic. But that’s about it the rest I kinda just winged it lol.

Chapter Text
“They rejected it…” Samael was kneeling in front of Lilith with a dejected look on his face.
“I’m sorry my love…” Lilith spoke before she knelt down and pulled her lover into a comforting hug.
Samael did not return the hug, instead he stayed silent for a while.
That is until…he suddenly sprung up which caused Lilith to release him from the hug, startled.
“I’ve got a new idea!” He announced loudly to Lilith.
Lilith looked at him curiously motioning for him to continue.
“We’ll start a rebellion! You, me and a few others that liked and believed in my ideas!” Samael continued, his eyes filled with determination.
“Others…?” Lilith trailed off. Samael never mentioned it to anything about there being others.
“Yes! Others! I apologise for not telling you last time but it slipped my mind!” Samael apologised as he held Lilith’s hands. “But what do you think?” He asked with pleading eyes.
“It could be dangerous…” Lilith thought it over, looking away from Samael’s eyes.
“Please, my dove…” Samael pleaded.
Lilith, unable to refuse her lover…
“Ok…I’ll do it…for you…” Lilith gave in reluctantly.
“Thank you, my dove, my love. I will protect you…I will do whatever I can. I promise you that.” Samael guided her face towards his and looked into her eyes.
Time passes by, and then came time for the rebellion to begin.
“Please do not do this brother…” A man’s voice spoke out. He had a halo that consists of star shapes formed in a ring shape. Wavy hair, pale face, wings that represent ears, and a robe with fur on the collar. A few angels stood behind him as well.
Samael glared at the man as a few angels stood behind him. Lilith was seen amongst the small crowd of angels. A worried look on her face.
“I have to, brother.” Samael insisted.
Things…went wrong…so wrong…
Screams of pain are heard as Samael was shown to be burned horribly, his wings’ feathers had been burnt off, he was holding onto the edge of a giant sinkhole that led down to a place that was caked in shades of red.
“You left us no choice, Samael.” The man Samael called ‘brother’ spoke, staring down at him with a Solemn look. That look suddenly changed into one of anger.
“YOU WERE A MORNINGSTAR! WE WERE TOLD WE WOULD FIGHT EVIL TOGETHER, NOT THAT YOU WOULD BE THE EVIL WE WERE TOLD TO FIGHT! YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO BE THE ONE WHO BROUGHT LIGHT AND HOPE UPON US, NOT DARKNESS AND DESTRUCTION!” The man screamed at the man who’s grip was slowly slipping.
“I HATE YOU!” Samael screamed, his voice laced with venom and hatred. “I HATE YOU MICHAEL MORNINGSTAR!” Samael continued to scream.
“You were my brother, Samael, I loved you dearly…It is a shame you decided to take this path…” Michael spoke, his voice wavering as small tears poured out of his eyes.
Samael’s grip gave way and he fell into the deep sinkhole that led to what is known now…
“As Hell.” The woman sitting in the study room reading stops and decides to take time to process the story she had just read.
Now being able to see her face more. She has a black button nose, rosy red cheeks, wide eyes, short bushy eyebrows and goat pupils. She sits there for a while. After a bit she reads the last few pages of the book.
“Samael and Lilith began to build an empire down in Hell. The angels that fell with Lucifer each had their one part of Hell to rule. They’re known as Rings. While down in Hell, Samael decided to change his name to Lucifer. He did not like being called Samael and found Lucifer to be a better name, fit for the ‘King of Hell’.” The woman turns the page.
“Lilith and Lucifer decided to have children. They had two, Constantine, and Charlie. Princess Charlie held the hope and wonder her father had long lost eons ago.” The woman stops, noticing she’s at the last page and sentence of the storybook. She sets it down onto the couch she’s sitting on.
“Charlie? Hun?” Another woman’s voice is heard as well as a knock. The woman looks up from her lap.
“Oh! Vaggie! Come in!” The woman now known as Charlie grants permission to the woman ‘Vaggie’.
“What were you doing?” Vaggie had short fluffy hair with antenna-like strands hanging down the back of her hair, hooked nose, one sharp eye, an eyepatch and soldier-like attire. She held the door open letting light flood into the room. Charlie wore a white suit with red vest and dark grey pants that go from her waist down to her knees.
“I was reading the book after…not being able to find the time to read it.” Charlie says standing up.
“So, Vaggie why did you need me?” Charlie questions the woman.
“I just wanted to check on you hun, you were in here for a few hours and I was getting worried.” Vaggie admits, slightly embarrassed .
“Aw babe!” Charlie smiles with sparkles in her eyes. She runs to Vaggie and pulls her into a hug. “I have such a sweet and caring girlfriend!” She squeals with glee.
Vaggie giggles as she’s pulled into the hug. She hugs her lover back with a loving smile.
“I hope this hotel works.” Charlie suddenly changes the topic. “I hope that this whole redemption thing works.” Charlie says, pulling back from the hug and looking sadly at Vaggie. "I really want to help my people...I want to give them a chance to go to a place better than this literal Hellhole..." Charlie continue, smiling hopefully.
Vaggie looks at her and smiles reassuringly.
“It will work hun, I’m sure of it.” Vaggie reassures Charlie though she doesn’t really believe it could or would work, she would always support Charlie no matter how crazy or unbelievable her ideas can get.
