An angel in hell (sequel to dreaming angels)
Preface: Jane Darkness I could see nothing but darkness when we vanished. I felt my arm being pulled through. “Lucas” I cried, but I knew nobody could hear me except for Lucifer and the demons that resided in hell. “He won’t come for you Jane.” I heard Lucifer whisper “You have me now” He started to laugh and squeezed tighter on my arm as we descended further and further into the dark and endless pit. Then I saw a light, it was red. It grew bigger and bigger until it consumed us. That was when I saw hell. It was worse than I had imagined… There was dark sand coloured with blood. Giant cup shaped rocks held billions of discarded bodies. Spirits and demons moaned as they were covered with a pool of lava. I looked up at the devil. He had grown larger. One of his claws were the same size as my arm. I started to cry. This was my fate, my future. I was to be part of hell for eternity.
Chapter 1: Lucas Escape. I lay on the floor and cried out in pain. I wasn’t hurt, in fact my body felt better than ever, the pain was caused by the loss of Jane. For what seemed like weeks, I lay there. It was henry who found me. “She’s gone henry. She’s really gone. He took her.” I cried. “Mate. I’m sorry; I should have stopped you from going near her. I could have saved you all this pain” “I have to get her back. You don’t understand I can’t live like this. I can’t even read her mind anymore. I’ve been trying for-” I stopped “What day is it?” “Friday.” Henry replied “I’ve been lay here since Tuesday. She’s been in hell since Tuesday” “Wait back up a second. He took her to hell.” I nodded “mate. You can’t do this to yourself. You look like you haven’t slept in days” “I haven’t.” I said “Jane’s mother is back today” “What do you mean Jane’s mother is back today. What is she going to do when she finds her daughter missing and her boyfriend a complete wreck on her living room floor. Ey?” A car pulled up outside the house and Jane’s mother got out. “She’s back early” Henry grabbed the hem of my shirt and pulled me up to a standing position. My legs were numb with tiredness but I knew I could run. “Back way” henry shouted. I ran out and jumped over Jane’s tall fence. Henry followed close behind me “Where’s your car?” “Round that corner” We ran to the car and henry jumped in the driver’s seat. I sighed. “I can’t let you drive like that” Henry said “It’s ok” I replied “I wasn’t sighing about that” Tears fell down my face. “We will get Jane back. I know it’s too late for Amy but it won’t be too late for Jane. I don’t think he wants her dead. I think he’s planning to keep her for a very long time.”
Chapter 2: Jane The devil’s kiss Lucifer placed me to the floor. The dark red walls were oozing with fresh blood and the floor looked like hot lava. He flew to his chair and sat. I could see he saw my fear. “Would you prefer me as I was before? As Darren?” When I didn’t answer he morphed into Darren. “You’re Satan, not Darren!” I screamed. “I don’t like that name” he replied calm and smiling. “What do you like?” “You. Call me your husband. Adore me I am your angel of light” Where did that come from? “Never!” I screamed “Don’t do that princess” Did he just call me princess? The devil got up and walked towards me. He grabbed my wrists. Then he kissed me! But it was strange for some reason I wanted more. I didn’t pull away or stop. I just carried on until the thought of Lucas popped into my head. I stopped. Guilt raced around my body. The devil smiled. “Nobody can resist the devils kiss. Your mine now princess.” Tears sprung to my eyes. I regretted kissing him. The pain in my heart was unbearable. “This guilt, you’re feeling now will all go away soon and you will want another kiss. You will crave it, but don’t take my word for it. Test it yourself” “I didn’t want to.” I cried. “But you did princess. You’ve wanted me for a very long time” He replied “I’ve never wanted you” “Are you so sure about that princess?” I wasn’t. He was right, I wanted another kiss. “See your craving it now.” “I hate you.” “Hate can turn to love. Be sure of that” He smiled like he had won a battle. I hated him, I wanted to strangle him, punch him, hit him and kiss him. What was I thinking? Had I gone insane? What was wrong with me? I had Lucas. Less than an hour in hell and I wanted to kiss the devil. I started to cry. “You need some rest. I’ll take you to your room” The room was enormous. Silk, red curtains stretched at least 50 metres above my head. The king size bed was a red colour; it had 12 larger plump pillows and 3 larger blankets on it. “I’ll leave you to sleep” he said “Wait” What was coming out of my mouth? “Yes Jane.” “Kiss me” No I did not just say that. No I can’t have. He was walking towards me smiling. Don’t come any closer I wanted to scream but the words wouldn’t come out. He put his hands on mine and kissed me. I pulled him tighter and then he stopped. “You probably shouldn’t have kissed me. The cravings get worse now.” I felt a little dizzy. He picked me up and carried me to the bed. Then he left me so I got in and fell asleep.
Chapter 3: Lucas Dreaming I stood in a field and knew exactly where I was. I was on the first stage of hell. “Lucas.” I heard someone shout. I turned around to find Jane stood a few metres behind me. I ran to her and kissed her. But she didn’t kiss me back she just stood there in silence. “Jane, what has he done to you?” Tears poured out of her eyes “I…I…” She stammered “I don’t think I’m strong enough to tell you” She confessed “Jane! Please tell me whatever it is we will figure it out?” I told her “I kissed the devil” Shock hit me and I stood in complete silence “Jane why would you-” “He kissed me first and when he does I start to crave it. It’s all my fault” she said “I felt I needed to confess that even if you are just a dream.” “What do you mean if I am a dream? You’re in my dream.” “We are in each other’s dreams?” she asked “I think we are Jane.” “So I’ve just confessed to the real you?” she asked me “Yes” “I’m so sorry Lucas. I couldn’t stop. I couldn’t control myself. I even asked him to kiss me Lucas. I crave it.” She cried “Jane. I don’t blame you for anything. It is his fault-” she cut me off “He wants me to marry him Lucas” she cried “He what?” “He wants me to marry him. He said to call him husband and to adore him.” “That evil-” I started “Lucas what do I do? I don’t want to marry him.” “You need to get out of there.” “I’m at the top of hell, even if I did try and run away he would find me.” She stopped suddenly “Lucas I have to go. He’s coming.” “I’m going to find you Jane. I love you.” “I love you too.” I woke up sweating. I had to find her or she was going to be married to the devil. But how? I spent hours lay still until I figured out exactly what to do…
Chapter 4: Jane Lucas’s journey I woke to the sound of music. Ironically it was the song highway to hell by ac/dc. “Arrrr. Princess, you’re awake” Lucifer said smiling “Will you stop calling me that? I’m not your princess.” I snapped “What would you like me to call you?” “Jane.” I said “Jane then. How did you sleep? Since you have been sleeping for 3 days now” “Three days?” “Yes, I went to see your ex-boyfriend yesterday morning” “He’s not my ex.” I shouted “You’re my fiancé. Of course you’re he’s your ex” he replied “I’m not marrying you” I screamed “Excuse me?” He growled “I’m not marring you. It’s simple to understand” The music stopped. “What did Lucas say to you? What did you do to him?” The devil smiled “Tell me” I shouted “I think you will marry me. I’ve sent your boyfriend on a little trip” he showed his teeth in a wicked smile. They were sharp and pointy. I stepped back to show him I didn’t want him to come any closer. He ignored me and took a few steps towards me. “What did you do to him?” I hissed, taking another step back. “Nothing really. He accepted my deal.” “Lucas would never make a deal with you” “You don’t know him very well. Do you?” he replied “I said if he could pass through the nine stages of hell in 6 days, he could have you back and I wouldn’t marry you. But if he fails, your mine princess” I wanted to kill him. “He won’t fail” I shouted, Lucifer grinned “I think he will. You see I’ve been making short clips of you kissing me and sending them to your boyfriend.” “You liar” “Believe what you want princess, but choose after you see this.” He walked towards me and touched my arm and I have a vision of Lucas. He looked up at the blood red sky, and then I saw his vision. He saw me kissing the devil. “No!” I shouted at Lucas. He started to cry. Lucifer let go of my hand. “Believe me now?” I nodded. Guilt and shock twisted in my stomach. “You’re awful! You evil low life.” Lucifer grabbed me and kissed me again so I bit him on his snake like tongue. He pulled away. “I like it when you’re mad. Makes you look like you believe in evil” I scowled at him “You’re like me” “I’m nothing like you. I hate you!” I screamed in his face. I turned away but he grabbed my wrist . “I know you hate me” he replied calmly. “What would you do if I said ‘I loved you’? Would you scream at me? Send me back to Lucas?” “Nice try. Wasn’t good enough. Say I love you all you like. I wouldn’t care.” Lucifer grinned “So why marry me? What’s the big marriage game for? To hurt Lucas? To hurt me?” “I need you to adore me Jane” “Not going to happen.” I scowled “We will see” He replied. He kissed me on the top of the head, this time. “Now, I have go. You know kingdom to run, world to destroy.” He let go of my wrist and left. I need to get out of here. I thought Jane? I heard Who is that? I asked Lucas. It’s Lucas. I can hear you now. He replied Lucas. What did you do? You have been letting him into your mind. Please don’t torture yourself, I really can’t stop him. I know Jane. He has just kissed you again hasn’t he? I could hear Lucas’s pain. Yes. Lucas I’m sorry. I can’t tell you how sorry I am. Lucas sighed I’m sorry too For wh
