And on I walked towards the elevator.
I placed my finger on the single button to call the elevator, the pin prick brought back memories from the years I had spent here. A drop of blood stained the button that hungrily sucked it up, becoming a neutral color again. The elevator door opened with a jarring ping. Bright white light poured out from the elevator and I got inside, the doors closed, then opened an instant later and I stepped out in dad's study.
He sat in his swivel chair with his back towards me, looking out of the window at a flock of angels who received the newcomers into Heaven and showed them around. A group of Cherubs flew in circles playing cherubic games with each other, somewhere slow music played, a stream gurgled and birds chirped in wholesome trees.
"This is one fucked up place, son." he said to me without looking in my direction. He swiveled his chair to face me and I saw the lines in his face had deepened, and an extra chin was subtly making its presence felt on his neck. He wore a track suit of a boring color; it was his day off. He didn't offer me a seat so I kept standing.
"Why did you call?" I asked.
"I have done some fucked up things in my time here and one of my biggest mistakes was throwing you down. No hard feelings, but you have to look at things from a PR point of view when you are creating universes and someone decided to fuck with you." he said, seemingly lost in a world of his own.
I waited for him to answer my question.
"And then, you walked away from your responsibilities handed out to you." he looked at me with a dejected look in his eyes.
"I was sick of handling Hell for so long, so I took a permanent early leave."
"I want you to take back control of that place, I cannot manage hell and heaven both at the same time."
"Fuck you very much for calling me but I quit that shit once and for all."
The next few seconds were a blur of anger, hate and madness that streamed from the old man's existence onto me and then I fell again, for nine days and nine nights. I guess, you can only get that far by saying 'Fuck You' to God.

The intro to this story will always remain somewhere in the book of best lines written on this blog. So, there, the final part. If the complete story doesn't make sense then relax, it doesn't make sense to me either, and I wrote this damn thing. The basic idea here is that what if Lucifer was the son of god.There is a dog crying outside here like someone shoved a stick up its ass, and I can hear the whistle of a train somewhere in the background. Time to set this baby to sail. More madness coming your way soon.
And the best part is Lucifer is tired of Hell already. I'm not surprised, seeing as we've got enough buggers around us battling to control Hell, Lucifer's ex-domain won't remain Keeperless for long.
ReplyDeleteAwesome, N!!
Jadis...
ReplyDeleteI think he is here on earth, trying to make a better hell. I mean look at the state of planet, can hell be anywhere else?

ReplyDelete@ N
ReplyDeletecrapp... i anticipated this was where d story was heading... d guy being the devil going to meet his dad... the god... although the treatment is fantastic as usual...the visuals appealing...narrative fucking...but i wish i would've been somewhat taken aback...
i got a question in general...since hell is in a state of lawlessness..and lucifer ain't too keen for his job back..where can i apply for the post???
GOD are u reading????
i agree with nothingman. can hell be anywhere else when the planet is swarming with Lucifer's minions?
ReplyDeleteoh maybe i shouldn't use that. Lucifer's minions are a petty description for the guys fit to be his dad.
The Shmoo...
ReplyDeletei just go with the flow :) wherever it takes me, and its shitty places usually :P
N
Harshad...
ReplyDeleteShit man, I just imagined lil puppy lucifers barking around! :D
Cute? LOL
N
AK...
ReplyDeleteYeah right, I'm sure you were anticipating! LOL.
God is reading and he says you will have to commit suicide to reach hell. Keen now? ;)
N
Sia...
ReplyDeleteWell, let's suppose Lucifer's here, then it means that whoever is in control from up there is fucking things up on this planet.
I wonder why people still worship god. Bah!
N
you have been awarded. oh, and it just doesnt matter that its (your award, i mean) all girly and pink. you rock!
ReplyDeleteAye! The opening lines are something!
ReplyDeleteAnd the details! Neat N! Keep it up!
WoW!
ReplyDeleteThis is too good.
@Jadis and you'r reply, i think you are true.
Now that was some non-amateurish hell-blog. Can't find one like this on the Blogger.
I've been a long reader of your stuff, and nothing is ol' school and it just gets better. But the first ones were great too.
Improvisation to its extent. I don't think this all is just 'crazy, madness' ect as you call it. This is much more.........
Such blasphemy! =D Just kidding! Fascinating plot, and strong opening. Nice work =)
ReplyDeleteYou are one amazing writer. That image of being hurled below for nine days and nights is always beautiful. Thanks to you, Paradise Lost shall be read again. :)
