Chapter 6: party in the living world and a talk with an angel
Max went through the portal and he saw the blue sky He missed a lot and he saw that they were right next a concert how he can tell from the posters that has verosika's face although he noticed that she looks human and not a succubus.
He grabbed one of the to get a closer look it says that verosika is preforming in today and from what he could tell verosika is both popular in the human world and hell talk about a 2 way to get famous sceam.
Verosika saw this and decided to explain somethings.
Verosika: I see you are surprised that that I'm popular in the living world.
Max: not really but yeah I guess but there is something I don't why do you look human here.
Vortex: that's her human disguise.
Max: disguise?....oh now I get it this explain why you weren't already caught by cops
Kiki: well we should change already don't think?
Apple: yes let's do so.
Max saw how blue flames surrounded the group and they changed from from demons to human in an instant max was already used to shape-shifting people but is just looks more magical.
Max: wow that was actually pretty cool to watch.
Verosika saw Max's face surprised face and she now decided to rip the band aid off.
Verosika: so what about you do you have a human disguise maxi
Max could stare at verosika he then realized that she already knew who he really was but again even if he noticed sooner he wouldn't care he would kill them if they decided to attack him so far they didn't do anything bad just flirting with him so he decided to fuck it.
He dematerialized his mask and his arms which were covered in his black matter after revealing his true face the group all but verosika were surprised.
Vortex: wow you are the human that took on those things.
Coco: oh my Satan he is a killer
Apple: hell yes sister he is a catcher.
Josh: I'd hit that.
Ace: dude
Josh: just saying man you are still my boyfriend.
Moline materialized in her snake form behind max and she was hissing with red glowing slided eyes and she was letting out massive killing intent that made the group back off max
Moline: if anyone of you horny bastards lays a single finger or do anything to my brother I will eat whole and spit out your bones.
Max decided to calm down his little sister he is glad that he has some to have is back.
Max: easy Moline there are not gonna do anything bad right.
Max gave them a look that said just go with it.
Verosika: yeah you have my word.
Moline still grared but she calmed down.
Moline: I'm serious if you hurt my brother I will have all of you for a snack.
With that Moline faded into white particles and returned to Max's psyche.
Max: sorry about that my little sister doesn't like people who strangers to get to close to me.
They stared walking to the concert with the group asking questions.
Vortex: hey look man I don't judge but that girl looks nothing like you
Max: she is adopted and believes or not she is actually older then me but she has the personality of a kid and a teen and call me big bro because she looks up to me.
Coco: so what is she I don't think I saw a demon like that.
Max: that's because I'm not from this universe.
The group stopped at that and they were confused.
Kat: what's a universe.
Max realized that these guys were born in hell and they don't know anything about the universe thing.
Max: right there is a thing humans call the multiverse theory it's a were there multiple versions of ourselves like for example me I've come from a place that dosent have a hell and they are probably versions of yourself that weren't borns as demons but humans in another universe or even versions of ourselves that are the opposite gender.
Verosika had to process this the fact they are such a thing as other versions of herself in other realities she wasn't a scientist but this is something new to her and the living proof of this is standing right in front of her max McKnight.
Milky: so you are not from this universe?
Max: yup I wad hunting down a lost soul that was causing disappearances and I got careless and I got dragged into a portal that sucked me and got me into this place and now I'm hoping Mt folks can catch him and they find a way to for me to come back.
Verosika: what's is a lost soul?
Max: in my world when someone dies they become a spirit and they are separated in two types lost soul are people that lost there sanity due from negative emotions most lost souls behave like animals attacking anyone that either humans spirits or even other lost souls the more dangerous ones is the ones that get stabilized themselves and they grow in power
And the other type is called pure souls they are basically people who died but unlike the lost they protected humanity from them and some stick around loved ones they knew when they were alive to protect them.
Vortex: so those things that attacked the pride ring were lost souls?
Max:yup and what makes them dangerous is that normal people can't see them only people that learned how to control there spiritual energy can do that.
Kat: what's is that?
Max: spiritual energy or spiritual force energy is basically an inner energy that humans and spirits have and they can used it to inhance there bodies and you can awaken an ability of your own.
Kiki: so you can use this spiritual and do all those things that's cool but how did humans in your world learned this?
Max: well a man named Larson was the founder of a detective organization which didn't have a name at the time but he died in an accident and he became a spirit he managed to survive and when he found a friend of his he decided to test something if humans can used there own souls to combat lost souls and it was a success from what I've heard he died somewhere in 1992 that's were the E.X.O corporation came to be and I'm still in my training phase though.
Josh: so you work for an organization that do all those cool stuff and you are still a rookie that's awesome.
Max: thanks.
Verosika: so at the pride ring those things came because of the lost soul you were going after?
Max: yup but enough that we have work to do right boss?
Verosika: right let's move people.
In a aera near the concert a portal opened and someone stepped out it was Emily she told Sera that she was going to do some work in the human world and only those who in high status in heaven can enter the human world to guide them to heaven of course this was a lie she told to serabl the reason why she wanted to go was to clear her head on what is the extermination she tried asking people she was close to but they didn't know what that is so Emily who is kinda somewhat feeling betrayed by Sera who is hiding secrets from her needed to clear her head and think of what to do to find out what Is the extermination surely it can't be something bad because heaven is a wonderful place but she is starting to doubt that and she doesn't want to be mad but she still felt like her trust was betrayed so hopefully being here can clear her mind.
Emily saw a poster of a performer called verosika mayday from what she knows about her is that she is a succubus that feeds of the lust of humans Emily never seen a succubus up close so she decided to see for herself of course in range that she wouldn't be seen.
It was dusk and the concert got started and verosika was on stage ready to start.
Verosika: what's up people are you all ready for today performance!!
All the audience cheered while some took off there shirts to show tattoos that say I love you verosika.
Verosika started to sing and her voice let out a massive the crowd was in a trance they started to do things max honestly doesn't even want to say her crew joined in to influence the people there.
Vortex: I know this is your first time but don't worry you will get used to it
Vortex then saw a guy that got too close to verosika and he knocked him out and dragged him outside max then saw someone among the crowd was a girl with white hair but the thing that caught his attention was her soul it felt like the angel he killed but a little more stronger and more pure max decided to see what this is all about.
Max: hey Moline think you can take over my place while talk to that angel?
Moline: sure want to stretch out my legs a bit.
Moline materialized and max went out the back to use his ability without being seen.
Vortex came back and he saw Moline in Max's place and he was still shaken by how much killing intent this little girl gave off so he decided to talk to her and choose his words carefully.
Vortex: so Moline right I'm sorry that my crew gave of the wrong impression.
Moline: its okay I'm more mad at the ground of horn dogs there than you I can tell you are pretty chill
Vortex: so am curious how long have you and max have been together?
Moline: ever since max started middle school he found me and he decided to take to a shrine to have a place to stay and we got closer and I saw him as a big brother and we made a contract who ever has the balls to hurt our family they will pay with there lives.
Vortex was touched by this he got dragged into bee's parties alot and on day he was approached by her and they started to get closer and closer until they confessed to one other and bee will get pretty defensive if anyone had the balls to tell her off or judge her standards for dating a common hell hound.
Moline: but hey at least my brother is doing fine in this world.
Vortex: so mind telling me something about your world?
At the bottom line of the crowd Emily saw how humans gave into there sexual desires and needless to say she covered her eyes not to see it she got into a place were she can sit and were she can't hear the music she was immune to succubuses ability to inhance sexual desires but she was still embarrassed and her face was red.
I know right its pretty weird watching this.
Emily jumped in her seat and she saw the human thar Sera wanted to come to heaven but she calmed down when she saw that he had no malice.
Emily: you scared me.
Max: sorry so what's an angel doing here I would have thought you would stop this.
Emily: well I just wanted to clear my head.
Max: why is something going on.
Emily: may I ask what your name is actually no it's rude to ask for your without tell you my name first my name is Emily I'm from heaven.
Max: max McKnight nice to meet you. You are actually better than the angel I met in hell.
Emily: huh what do you mean?
Max: well I kinda saw an angel who was about to kill a female sinner and so I killed her with out her even seeing me.
Emily was in shock to say the least she was never told that angels could die but what horrified her the most is what Mac said what that angel he killed was doing killing sinners is this the extermination that Sera was talking about killing sinners but for what reason they are already there for what they did why make them suffer more.
Max saw how Emily was flickering between her human disguise and her angel for due to the well of emotion he thought that Emily was mad at him for killing an angel but he sensed her soul and she felt anger and betrayal.
Emily saw how max was looking at her in worried and she calmed down and got her regain her composure and when she calmed down she decided to ask max a question that she is now afraid to ask
Emily: max you have any idea on what the extermination is?
Max was confused he thought that Emily already knew about the extermination but he guessed that only the higher ups in heaven keep it a secret I guess it kinda makes sense since heaven is supposed to be the opposite hell and a happy place but he guessed that hypocrisy is in everyone even max knows he is not perfect and he accepts that fact but those that think they have no flaws are just lying to themselves so max decided to tell her gently enough as to not hurt Emily.
Max: well the extermination is when the angels who are called exorcist come to hell to kill demons due to the over population in hell and its not pretty to see.
Emily was in shock to learn this Sera is the one that talked to lucifer about agreements but Sera never told her what agreements but this just shattered her view on the person that she looks up to like a sister and Adam the first human was the leader of the exorcists and lute is the vice captain now but now that Emily thinks about she sometimes hears Adam mentioning something about killing sinners she thought she was joking but now she sees Adam as much as a demon then the sinners she wanted to cry she wanted Sera to stop this but she knows that she won't listen to her.
Max saw how Emily's expression was having a mental crisis so he decided to calm her down.
Max: hey how about I grab you a drink you look like you could use one.
This snapped Emily out of her mental crisis and she processed his words and just nodded.
Max walked away to get drink Emily was still seated In the bench was still processing the reality on what the extermination really is
an event that angel kill sinners due to the over population but killing is not the answer sure they did bad stuff but even she know that sometimes people have no choice but to do bad things to get by in life she saw it multiple times
she doesn't know what to do going to confront Sera is useless telling Adam to stop the extermination is like talking to a wall and the worst part even if she told heaven with no proof they are gonna cast her out she grabbed at her head about in frustration what can she do there has to be another way to stop the over population but killing them isn't right.
Max came back with two cans of soda and gave on to Emily who she took with a lost look max sat down by her and decided to ask the poor girl what she was thinking.
Max: so you mind telling me what you are thinking I can tell you have alot of bad stuff going on.
Emily look towards the human that have the sinners in the pride ring and her impression on him was that he is a kind soul so she decided to just let it out.
Emily: the person that I looked up to like a sister is hiding the fact that angel who were supposed to be being that are pure of happiness and goodness are committing genocide in hell and Sera and Adam are the only ones that know about this and they are keeping this hidden from heaven's people and I want to stop this but I don't know how if I tried talking to Sera she is just either gonna make excuses or worse shut me down and cast me out like lucifer and Adam he only listens to lute and Sera and lute just sees me as an immature girl and I just don't what to do.
As Emily was letting out her frustration she was crying and when she finished she looked at max with the hope that he could somehow help.
Emily: tell me what should I do?
Max took a moment analyze Emily's situation and then he remembered Charlie's redemption plan he decided to Emily this he just met her but he could by her soul that she is a kind person.
Max: actually the princess of hell is doing a project that would redeem sinners and to deal with the over population with out killing them don't get me wrong there probably some people in hell who are just scum but they are some of the who are not proud of what they did.
Emily had was surprised to learn this heaven doesn't checks up much on hell mostly the human world but this is the first time she hears of this but most surprising is that the princess of hell herself actually wants to redeem sinners and this has never been done before but she remembered a time Sera said that sinners can't be redeemed and that show how little care she had for sinners no matter the kind.
Emily: max can I ask you something?
Max: sure shoot.
Emily: do you think heaven is a lie I've never been to hell but you seem find your place there.
Max: Emily listen to me very closely nobody and I mean nobody is perfect not you not me lucifer or Sera who ever that is not perfect and people who think of themselves as perfect just want to lie to themselves or pretend they have no flaws.
Emily was moved by this she always saw good things in everything but max is right just because some is nice it doesn't mean it's perfect Adam is a perfect example she always tried to be nice but Adam always ignores her or make mean comments or even pretend to listen why eating his ribs if it was up to her she wouldn't allow Adam into heaven.
Emily looked up and realized it's was becoming dark she decided its time to leave but before she left she decided to give max something.
Emily: I have to go but can I give you something?
Max: what is it?
Instead of answering him Emily put her hands together and holy energy gathered in her hands and when the energy subsided a bracelet was revealed floating in her hands and gave it to max who was somewhat surprised and curious.
Max: what's this?
Emily: this bracelet will allow me to communicate with you think of it as a phone to call me just think of happy thoughts and think of who you want to talk it's that simple.
Max: thanks I'll keep it
Emily: talk to you soon.
With that Emily walked away far enough so that she won't be seen and max saw her with her wings and halo she was beautiful this is what max imagined angels to look like she then used her magic to create a portal and she looked back and waved good bye and entered the portal leaving the human world.
Max decided to come back to his spot he saw how the concert was still on and everybody was having still having sex so he assumed that only a few hours have passed he looked at the bracelet Emily gave him and put on while walking back to his spot.
