1002 Words
WHEN Lucifer, the Devil, got bored in Hell, he decided to went up on Earth, to sow evil.
He did everything, that the Devil could do.
He tried and propagated every vices known to man.
Smoking.
Drinking.
Gambling.
Drugs.
Women.
Name it, and he did it all.
But like any other creatures on Earth, he has no exemption to the curse called, love.
Lucifer fell in love.
And to make his story more complicated, he fell in love with a Nun!
He met her when he built a Casino and a bar, near the convent of Sta. Monica.
And knowing every people on Earth, they are easy to persuade. In a span of a month, or two, his establishements, hits!
Because of the vices that Lucifer introduced with the people of Sta. Monica, as well as, the neighboring town, instead of going to church, most of them chose to gamble and drink. Some of them, also, did drugs.
No one wants to go to church and pray, anymore. All of them was blinded by Lucifer's wrong way of living.
Before the situation got worst, the Mother Superior of the convent decided to talk to Lucifer. She wants Lucifer to stop influencing the people of Sta. Monica, with his wrong doings.
So, she went to Lucifer's teritory and was accompanied with two of the convent's nuns.
While the Mother Superior speaks her heart out to Lucifer, his eyes were focused with the nun standing at her back.
None other than, Mariana Castoriano.
Lucifer raised his one hand to the nun, in front of him talking, to make her stop.
The nun immediately stopped, and looked at him with confusion.
"I don't want to talk to anyone of you," he said in a cold voice. "Except her..." Still, in a cold voice, he said and pointed his finger to Mariana. "...alone." Everyone in the room sensed the danger in his voice.
The Mother Superior averted her startled eyes to Mariana, and flew back to Lucifer.
"No!" The Mother Superior answered firmly. "I am here, to talk, not her--"
"Then, no conversation will take place." Lucifer snapped. "You may leave." He said, in a cold voice, as his eyes never leave Mariana's beautiful face.
"But--"
"Leave."
"I will talk to him--" Mariana interjected.
"No. Let's go."
"I-it's okay, Mother, I'll talk to him." She assured her. "Just wait for me outside."
"Are you sure? You don't have to do this--"
"I am sure, Mother," she gave her a smile to assure her, that it's really okay with her. "Just go... this won't take long."
The Mother Superior heaved a deep sigh before looking at Lucifer and stared at him.
But the Devil did not seems to care at all. He even smirked at her.
"Now, that we're alone..." Lucifer in his handsome, devilish smile. "I want to get straight to the point... I want you."
She looked at him, with her horrified eyes.
"And what Lucifer wants, Lucifer gets!" He said, followed by his horrible laughter.
That was the start of Lucifer and Mariana's story.
Despite of Mariana's faith in God, she accepted and loved Lucifer, unconditionally. She left the convent and lived with Lucifer.
Being with her, was the most happiest days of Lucifer's whole existance.
Their love was blessed with three sons. A triplets.
That made them even happier.
But unfortunately, Mariana was a mortal. She cannot live forever, like Lucifer.
She died, eventually.
Somewhere, in the middle of Heaven and Hell, Mariana got the chance to talk to the Father Almighty.
"My child, repent and you will be forgiven. Cast out the Devil, and you will be accepted into my Kingdom."
Because of Mariana's faith to the Lord, that was not diminished, eventhough, she fell in love with Lucifer, she repented all of her sins, and chose to cast out the Devil, in order to be worthy, to enter the Kingdom of God, the Father.
She chose to redeem her soul, and be with the Heavenly Father in Heaven.
There, when Lucifer began to hate women!
"All women are worthless! No matter what we do, even if we give them our heart and soul, they will still leave us!" The devastated Lucifer thought.
He went back in Hell, with only one of the triplets, Lucian.
He raised Lucian like him.
Heartless.
Does not believe in love. Or, so he thought.
After so many years, he found the other two of the triplets, on Earth. He asked them to be with him and their brother, back in Hell.
He told them that they are the lost Princes of Hell!
That one day, one of them will reign as the next King!
But the million dollar question was... who amongst the triplets will be the next King of Hell?
All the three of them was desiderate to reign.
All of them wanted the throne.
But only one could be chosen!
So, Lucifer made a deal with his sons.
"You will all, go up on Earth!" Said the Devil, in a thundreous voice. "You will find a woman that will give you, your own successor... a son of your own!"
"Oh, that was easy, Father!" Lucid, the eldest among the triplets said, with his demonic grin.
"Once the woman gave birth, you are ordered to get back here in Hell, with your son."
Wearing his devilish grin, Lucero, his second son, answered, "Sure thing, Father!"
"One more thing. And the very important one... do not fall in love!"
His two sons' demonic laugh filled the surface of Hell.
Lucifer turned to Lucian, his youngest son, because he's been so quite. But to his astonishment, he just heaved a sigh and averted his gaze.
But Lucifer did not say a word. He just let him be.
He will make sure that none of his children will have the same fate that he had.
He will make sure that they will not fall in love, like him.
Hell will freeze over, before he'll allow that to happen!
