Morningstar Of Sin

Oblivion begins "I have a new daughter but she refuses to leave her dimension because she doesn't want her responsibilities as Death. I want you to take her into that "Hell Lords" thing you have so that she will still gain my powers but won't have to take the place as a new Death."

"How old is she? And do you want her to be the Lord of the dimension you give me?" I look at him incredulously.

"Yes, that would be best for her growth. But you will have to convince her to join you, she will not talk to me and I do not care enough to make her." He puts his cheek on his hand as he leans on it.

"Deal. Send me there then." He nods and waves his hand.

My surroundings change I am no longer in the nothing I am instead in an endless white room with a single bed and television in front of me. The bed is ornately crafted and has a girl who looks to be a teenager with pure black hair laying on it with closed eyes.

"You must be Oblivion's new daughter correct?" I ask trying to sound friendly.

The girl jumps from her bed frightened "Who are you!"

Now I get a good look at her, she is at most 5'5", long black hair, pale whitish-blue eyes, A sharp face with a small nose, and nearly no 'assets'. But that can be looked over as she is still young and growing, and if she is anything like her sisters then it's only a matter of time.

"I am a friend of your father's, he sent me as an alternative to working as Death for eternity." I give a charming smile.

She blushes a little at my smile "My father has no friends… Did he sell me to you?"

I roll my eyes "I don't have much that he wants so no, I'm the Morningstar for a Universe that I met your father in. He wants you to serve as a Lord in one of my Hell's. Your job will be to make sure no souls escape and that the evil are being tortured appropriately."

She looks confused "Why is that any better than serving as Death?'

"Less work, and you can always get subordinates to do all the work for you. Not to mention the amount of power you would gain, without the need to rely on your father." I continue with my persuasion.

She ponders for a second "Honestly I would rather just stay here and watch my shows." She gives me a shrug.

I look over at the TV and see Harry Potter playing, the Prisoner of Azkaban I believe. I smile seeing she is like a normal teenager.

I turn back to her "Dumbledore dies."

"WHAT! How could you spoil that for me!" She abruptly yells her face going red.

"Snape kills him" I calmly continue still smiling.

"YOU SON OF A BITCH" as she yells a black scythe made of old looking wood appears in her hands.

As she winds up to swing it at me I grab it and hold it there watching her face scrunch as she tries to get my grip off.

"I actually live on earth. It's my home planet. If you accept the position as Hell Lord of my 8th Hell I'll give you passage to go there anytime… As long as you don't make any large disruptions I see no problem with buying you a place to live as well." I give her a bigger grin this time.

Her face lights up and the Scythe immediately dissipates into ash that fades as if it never existed.

A big toothy grin spreads on her face as she grabs my arm. "Really?!"

I nod, "Even if you don't watch over your Hell often you can still be the Lord. All I require is the job gets done and it is run smoothly. How old are you by the way? And what's your name? I am Lucifer Creed-Morningstar."

She blushes a little and backs away as she realizes she was holding my arm. "I am 16 years old in my time, around 500 human years I guess. My name is Ruby, it's the name I gave myself since father doesn't name us."

I look at her for a second "Please tell me you didn't name yourself after a TV character." She looks down to avoid eye contact before I can finish my sentence.

I sigh and pat her head to comfort her, "At least it's a nice name, I know your father doesn't care much about you daughters but as long as you serve me we are family."

She looks up at me surprised to which I grin "Don't look at me like that I have a massive family so you'll have to learn to cope quickly. We both have something in common so I'll make sure you don't suffer the way I did."

She looks embarrassed but she still meets my eyes "Thank you."

I just nod and put my hand out "Let's go then, we have a lot to do and I don't want to be away from home long." She nods and grabs my hand.

As she grabs my hand we both appear in the Darkforce Dimension and I feel power burst through me. Oblivion kept his side of the deal and I feel I have complete control over this realm. I can feel my powers have developed a bit because of the new Darkforce I'm connected to.

After soaking in the power I look at Ruby who is just staring at me wondering why I am standing still with my eyes closed. I brush off my changes as I concentrate on what has to be done.

I outstretch my arm as I draw on all nine of my realms. The fabric of reality splits as a hole appears in the sky the size of a sun. A subtle light floods the entirety of the realm the darkness seems to fight back the light.

The light is swallowed and all that is left is a little orange dot in the distance that can be seen from any angle. This is the bridge from the 7th Hell to this one, the connection itself makes all the Hell's stronger. By extension it makes all creatures birthed and living in any of the 8 Hells stronger.

I look back over to Ruby and hold out a hand, a piece of parchment appears in a roll of fire. "This contract states you will have surrogate Godhood in this realm as the Lord. You may manipulate the realm in any way you see fit to properly do your job. You may create life as long as it is constrained to this Hell and this Hell only unless given permission from me or another lord."

"It also states that you are able to go to the Earth in the reality I reside at anytime you are not needed. You are also eligible to stay in my spare room in my estate on Park Avenue. Your list of responsibilities is written on the bottom." I hand her the paper as she reads.

She looks up at me with concern in her eyes "I hate to ask for more… but can you buy me some clothes as well?"
