《Lucifer's Queen》Chapter Seven
Advertisement
I eased out of his chest and turned around and wished I hadn't. Large stone gates ran from the ground at up into the heavens. Large snakes were carved on each door both with their heads pointing upwards but I couldn't see exactly what they were pointing at for they continued straight up into the heavens. Six pillars, three on each side of the gates of naked men screaming and holding in there hands in surrender as if they were shielding them selves from some form of beating lined the way to the entrance.
Mist began seeping out of the gates and gut wrenching screams soon followed making me want to rip my ears off. What was this? I couldn't even move. I was paralyzed with fear.
"Are you ready?" Taking my silence confirmation, he grabbed my hands making me feel tiny spark which ran all the way up my spine. He led me to the gates and mist enclosed our body's.
"We were told that persons were lined up from outside of the gates awaiting their punishment as soon as they entered hell at the nunnery," I could hear my voice echo.
"Well you were partially true about persons being lined up, that went on for a few centuries but it was a slow process so I upgraded," Slowly the mist began to dissipate revealing a breathtakingly beautiful valley. We stood on top of a cliff looking down. Was this were the dead really came? How beautiful.
Squinting I could see a slightly large houses located in the center of the whole valley. A river of lava ran parallel to it, bordered by black trees with a variety of red flowers on them. It seemed as if I had stepped into the medieval era in terms of the designs on majority of the houses that I could make out.

I couldn't see anyone here. This valley was unique and amazing. "Hell is divided into three realms, normally when a person dies a grim reaper collects their soul and takes them to the gate, the mist normally transports them to purgatory. The first realm is this valley, this is were everyone lives which includes witches, Grimms and other creatures. The second realm which I mention earlier is Purgatory which is similar to this valley however there is a gate which leads to the true hell. Depending on the persons souls even though sent to hell, if it contains a redeeming quality via court they live inside that valley if not their sent straight inside purgatory which is guarded by Cerberus and the last realm is where I live, important business is taken care of there."
I took in all the information he was giving me. This was not what I had expected. Looking up I found the sky completely red without any sun. The place was perfectly lit. If I hadn't looked up I would have though the sky looked the same on earth. He must have seen where I was looking. "I control everything that occurs down here which includes the color of the sky or if there is a sun or not," Snapping his fingers the sky turned blue and a sun appeared. "But I like to do my own decorating," And then it was gone and the red sky returned. "I would take you down to the valley but we need to meet someone of utter importance but eventually we will go to visit." He place his index finger and thumb into his mouth and whistled.
Moments later a bright light broke through the sky and a large dragon appeared. It's wings ripped through the air along with a deafening roar. It slowly began to descend.

It's golden scales glistened along with the white beneath it's belly. It's was truly breathtaking yet scary. He soon stood face to face to us and I could see its eyes which were a mixture of gold and green.
"Gallelio it's been a while," He spoke to the dragon as if they were long last friends.
"It has been centuries since you've last called in the services of me or my people Master Hades," His tongue resembled that of Cerberus.
I wasn't surprised he could talk it seemed as if I was becoming accustomed to down here.
"Yes, I'm very much aware. I require foe you to take me and Lady Elizabeth down to Anita." A warm feeling filled me when he spoke my name.
Gallelio eyes looked slightly surprised when he spoke the name Anita. "As you wish my Lord."
Lucifer held out his hand and I took it. He lead me on the back of the dragon which I felt reluctant to go on. He must feel quite uncomfortable with us stepping on him. Large chains slowly appeared out of nowhere an into Lucifer's hand. He held them as if they weighed nothing. He through one end if the chain and it slithered around to Gallelio's mouth which he bit down on. Then it came back around to his hand then he held both reigns in his hand. "I would advise you hold on these and sit."
I looked surprised. What if I hurt him somehow in addition they were so big, I could never hold those. "I-"
"I'm sure you do not wish to fall off his so I suggest you hold onto these." He took my hand which he was still holding unto and placed them in my hand.
Surprisingly the felt as light as a feather. Using both my hand I held onto them.
"Είναι πολύ όμορφη Δάσκαλε, είναι η μοναδική;" I heard the strange language which Gallelio spoke. I guess if he was a dragon he could speak more than one languages.
"Είναι όμορφη, αλλά δεν είμαι σίγουρος για τη σημασία της, φίλε μου." Lucifer spoke in the language which sounded greek. The words rolled of his tongue like water on glass.
"If you say so my Lord," He spoke as if he was smiling. With a slight shift of his body, he spreads out his wings and took off into the sky.
I squeezed tighter unto the chain and heard a grunt from Gallelio. "Lady Elizabeth your grip hurts slightly."
"I'm so sorry," I released my hold on the chains completely and the force of winds knocked me off his back and sent my body backwards.
