Eyes closed. Focus, Lucifer, and let the Light flow through your body. Once he opened his eyes again, he saw his little brother for what he was - the Heart pulled into God’s playground. He knew that the rest of their siblings would comply to Father’s will, but he wanted Gabriel out of this. Please, don’t be involved.
A bittersweet smile. The Son of Morning opened his eyes again and looked at his brother one more time.
“You should come with me, not to fall a slave to His will.”
Gabriel stood so stiffly he was trembling before Lucifer’s. Never had he seen his brother as beautiful as he did now, with his Light surrounding him like a protective halo. If only it could protect him from what was to come...
“I—” he began, looking away.
“I can’t come with you, Lucifer.”
His blade was unsheathed without a real purpose save from
having something in his hand. Something to keep his feet on
the ground because Gabriel felt like he could should fly away
from all this. With his eyes wide, he said it again.
“I can’t come with you.”
