God created the heavens and Earth. He then gave life to the angels, beings created from pure light. First the four Archangels Michael, Gabriel, Rafael, and Lucifer, the youngest Archangel, whom he loved the most. were created to lead the rest that came after. Then he gave life to the earth and it was beautiful. While god was marveling at his creation he had a thought there was nothing to populate the earth. In his pondering god decided to create a sentient being. This being he created from the primal element from what he and the universe was made from. He called her Lilith she was his masterpiece beautiful, intelligent and chaotic just like the primal element.
Seeing their father love another of his creations more than them, the angels decided to band together and destroy her. They waited till God was gone to rest to attack. The archangels, having discovered their plot too late, knew that it wasn't going to work as she was of the primal element that could control all other elements of the universe. Angels, who were beings of pure light, fell to her power over elements. Having been ambushed, threw Lilith into a rage destroying all who came near her. Even the earth wasn't spared. God awoke suddenly to the destruction of the earth seeing Lilith in a strange form even to him. Her body was a swirling vortex her hair streaks of black, white, silver, and gold with wings of constantly shifting shadow. God then noticed the bodies of his beloved angels strung around Lilith and immediately understood what happened. He then went to calm Lilith, but in her rage she couldn't be reasoned with. Having no other choice, he fashioned a sword from the primal element imbuing it with a large quantity of his power and sealed Lilith within. After she was sealed the archangels showed up seeing God and all their brethren, lying dead strewn about the debris from the earth, they knew it was too late. God then turned to the archangels and asked how this happened. Knowing they couldn't lie, being made of pure light, they explained. In his rage God banished the angels to heaven sealing them there for countless millennia and falling into a deep slumber.
Millennia later god awoke and decided to try creating his earth again. When it came time to put life on earth, he decided not to create another being from the primal element. This time he would use a balance between the light and dark elements. He wanted this creation to have free will. He called this creation Man and named the first Adam. Releasing the seal on heaven he called all angels down to earth including the archangels, and asked them to bow to man. All the angels, knowing the love God has for his creations and the wrath they felt for having attacked his last creation, bowed to Adam releasing them from their banishment.
God then placed Adam in Eden, his garden on earth, and watched over him for a time. Later God noticed that Adam was not happy when asked why Adam told god that he was lonely. Pondering for a while god remembered Lilith and noticed one of his creations was female but the other was male. The concept of genders was new to God he didn't really have a gender. Wanting his new species to inhabit his earth, God the took up Adam and ripped flesh from his side and made a woman. Eve. Adam was happy with God’s gift which in turn made God happy. Seeing the relationship between Adam and Eve god decided to do the same for the angels making some man and some women. The angels loved this gift all but one, Lucifer.
Lucifer was not happy with the gift that God gave someone else before him. He decided to play a prank on Adam and Eve. Disguising himself as a snake and sneaking into Eden, he approached Eve while Adam was away. He convinced her that God would forgive her even if she broke his rule of not eating a certain fruit. She then plucked a fruit and took it to Adam to share while Lucifer laughed to himself returning to heaven. They divided the fruit in half sharing between them. As she ate the fruit she came to realize the snake’s intention but it was too late. God, noticing that they had broken his rules, immediately cast them from Eden. He then sealed it using the primal sword containing Lilith, banning any but him to enter.
After he calmed down God came to realize in his anger he punished too quickly. He then asked Adam and Eve what happened? Eve told him about the serpent and the promise that they would be forgiven. Saddened god gave them a choice; they could live forever or he would give them the ability to have children. Not knowing what a child was they asked God. He explained what they were and how they came to be. After discussing it they chose to have children. This made god happy for now he would have a race to populate his beloved earth. God then left Adam and Eve and returned to heaven to find who had tricked them. He had a good idea of who the culprit was going straight to Lucifer asking him why. Not being able to lie Lucifer told him it was because he was jealous of them and the attention they got. Having no choice but to punish Lucifer he banished him to Hell a realm that was the opposite of Heaven a realm of light Hell is a realm of darkness.
Thousands of years later Lucifer escaped from hell further corrupted by the darkness. He was determined to seek revenge on God. He was originally just going to start to slaughter all of mankind. He changed his mind when he came across a man being chased, after he killed the man’s pursuers, Lucifer stopped him to ask why he was running. The man, being afraid of Lucifer, told him he had killed 13 people in his village for making fun of his misshapen head. When the other villagers found out they came after him for punishment. Liking this man Lucifer reached into his soul and found the swirling black and white elements man was originally mad from. What he found was startling because this mans was unbalanced. The dark was taking over the light. Lucifer became ecstatic! He further corrupted him until no more light remained. This was a painful process for the man and when Lucifer was done he stepped back and watched as the man’s appearance started changing. His skin became darker, he grew bat-like wings, his nails became long and sharp, and a snake like tail grew from his backside. The most painful of changes was the ram-like horns that grew from his head. They were long and curled back behind his head. When his changes were complete, the man looked into a nearby stream and admired what he looked like now. He was very pleased with his frightening new visage. He looked towards Lucifer bowing and asked how he could serve his lord. Lucifer asked for his name he told him he didn't have one. Thinking for a moment Lucifer told him his name would be Satan, The Archdevil of Slaughter. Having found a companion in his quest for revenge, and a way to make more of these terrible servants, Lucifer went in search of others to corrupt.

They came across a group of hunters, attempting to corrupt them. It didn't turn out well only one changed and he wasn't a very strong. Being a bit disappointed they kept trying. The came to realize that if the soul wasn't already leaning toward the darkness, then the man would just die. The more corrupt the soul the stronger they would become after the changing. As the traveled, word began to spread among man about Lucifer's group they started calling them demons after evil spirits from the old women’s tales, telling everyone to flee if they spotted them. When Lucifer heard of this he changed his appearance to look like a normal human and showed Satan how to do the same. This allowed them to scout out the villages for potential converts. The lesser demons had to stay behind for they didn't have the power to change their appearance.
After searching this way for a while Lucifer found Jai, a thief that would steal anything he wanted as long as it was valuable to its owner. His favorite was taking the last bit of food from starving families and watching them suffer. Later he then found a woman Kana. She would sleep with any man she that had the misfortune of crossing her path. When the night was over she would put a poison spider into their bed killing the men in their sleep. She became the first black widow.
Satan wasn't as lucky and only found one man and he was a sick one even even by Satan’s twisted standards. Fazan, a loner of a man, would first catch animals and torture them. Finding what he could do to cause the most pain but leave his victim alive as long as possible was his greatest pleasure. He eventually graduated from animals to humans discovering that they couldn't take as much as the beasts but were a lot more vocal in their anguish, much to his delight.
After bringing them together, Lucifer gave them a choice, he would convert them to demons in his service or kill them. Not knowing what he was talking about Lucifer and Satan reverted to their original, horrifying visages and called out the rest of the demons. After seeing them they all asked one question. Will we be powerful? When the answer was yes, they acquiesced, allowing Lucifer to change them all and bestow upon them their new names. He now had four Archdevils to lead his forces against mankind, Satan of Slaughter, Juzel of Greed, Forzenthia of Pain, and Kuntalia of Lust.
With this Lucifer finally had what he need to launch his full-scale attack on the humans. With a full attack the angels finally noticed what was happening on earth and descended to help save the humans their father loved so much. A great battle ensued with Michael, the Archangel of Power, facing off against Lucifer, originally the Archangel of light, now the Lord of Darkness. With Gabriel, the Archangel of Knowledge, and only female Archangel, Azeala, facing Kuntalia who could bewitch all men, even angels, to fall to her. Rafael archangel of Courage fought Forzenthia, as he was the only one who could stand the pain he could inflict. Juzel ran around the battlefield inflicting small wounds on the angels watching and laughing as the angel would die. He would then steal their wings as grisly trophies.
The battle raged for weeks, even though the angels had the superior numbers, the demons were winning because Lucifer and the Archdevils outnumbered the Archangels. When Michael finally started to push back Lucifer Satan, who was hiding in wait do to Lucifer's bidding, was about to attack, when a bolt of light pierced the sky, splitting the battlefield in half. God had descended. God was furious at Lucifer for starting this battle, even more so for corrupting his beloved creation. God looked into his surroundings and saw the chaos the battle had created on earth the light and dark energies destroying everything they touched and the many corpses of the innocent humans. After surveying the carnage, he finally snaps back to Michael and Lucifer and says
“LUCIFER MY SON YOU WERE MY FAVORITE OF ALL THE ARCHANGELS BUT YOUR JELOUSY GOT THE BEST OF YOU AND YOU FELL. NOW YOU COME BACK NOT TO REDEEM YOUSELF BUT TO CREATE EVEN MORE SINS FOR YOUSELF WITH THE ABOMANATIONS YOU HAVE CREATED AND THE DESTRUCTION YOU HAVE WROUGHT MY EARTH. YOUR PUNISHMANT SHALL BE ETERNAL IMPRISIONMENT IN THE DEEPEST PITS OF HELL.”
God waved his hands and the earth split giant chains came up and wrapped around Lucifer dragging him down all the while Lucifer was smiling. God then look to Michael.
“MICHAEL AS LEADER OF THE ANGELS YOU DID RIGHT TO COME AND DEFEND THE HUMANS. BUT YOU DID NOT DO IT FOR THE RIGHT REASONS. YOU SOUGHT TO IMPRESS ME. LOOK AROUD YOU AND SEE WHAT YOUR ACTIONS AND THOUGHTLESSNESS HAS CAUSED.”
Michael did as he was instructed and looked around what he saw made him go pale. The destruction and carnage in a thousand-mile radius was horrible.
“NOW THAT YOU SEE WHAT YOU HAVE WROUGHT, YOU WILL BE LOCKED IN HEAVEN, NEVER TO LEAVE, MAINTAING CONSTANT VIGILANCE SO THAT LUCIFER IS NEVER SET FREE. AS FOR THE REST OF YOU ANGELS AND DEMONS ALIKE YOU SHALL BE SENT TO YOUR OWN DOMAINS AS WELL.”
As god was sending the angels and demons home the entire universe started to shake causing God to stop look around and disappear. For the angels only Gabriel and a dozen or so angels were left. For the demons it was the same with Kuntalia being the only one left on Earth. As they stared at each other they nodded turned and left.
Back in Eden the Sealing Sword shook, absorbing the light and dark energies left behind in the wake of the angels and demons battle, it shuddered then “CRACK”.
