" 10 "
Yuri was a promising young woman ever since she learned how to walk. She was bright and beautiful in every aspect. She always wore a smile that made the flowers bloom in every person who saw her and a heart that was as big and limitless as the horizon. Her parents loved her and were always proud of her. Everywhere she goes, she brings joy and light like a lamp that shone in the dark. The people around her adored her and envied her parents for having her. She was outgoing and had many friends. She rarely had enemies even though there were people who disliked her, taken over by selfishness and greed.
On the day she turned 18, she and her family went to pray at the church to thank Him for another day and another year. Yuri has always been closely connected to God. She would pray when she's happy, pray when she's sad, pray when she's lonely, pray when others have forgotten. To her, a prayer was like a conversation even though she never heard His voice, she felt His presence everywhere.
On a winter day, she and her friends decided to go climb up a mountain. The snow just started falling and they wanted to see the mountain in a layer of white blanket but on the way there, they were faced with an accident. An avalanche occurred and killed all her friends. She barely escaped in a cave, but now she was stuck inside with no way out because the snow has thickened and blocked the only exit. She did the only thing she knew, pray.
She was losing hope of being heard until she was finally answered after 7 days but it was a different God. He didn't offer her salvation nor did He give her a miracle. She talked to him when she had no strength as the life in her was about to leave her body.
Why do you wish to live?
"Because the world is a beautiful place to live in.." She weakly smiled, lying on the cold floor of the cave.
Maybe the world you see before you is different than the world I see. He laughed at her reply. Humans are greedy and selfish. They kill each other over trivial matters. Why do you want to live with such beings?
"There is no good if there is no evil. It's the same with light and darkness." She spoke, "I was taught that all humans are born with sin and it's in our nature to be evil but I believe that it's still a matter of choice. Everyone has a choice to be good or evil. Not all humans are selfish and filled with greed. Just like you, you're a demon but I don't think you are truly evil. It's your nature. If only everyone could learn to understand each other, we can all live in a peaceful world."
You are foolish. He said, looking down on her but she smiled at him. Humans and demons cannot co exist. I was abandoned by your God and was exiled because he cannot understand the dream I have. He loves his children so much that He is blinded by them. There's no use in nurturing a tree that has rotten roots, it must be cut down and that is what I will do.
"I'm sure we can find a common ground." She said while shivering. She was so close to death, even Satan is waiting to take her. "I won't be able to do that in this life though. Maybe in my next one."
He felt pity towards her. For the first time, he didn't feel any hatred towards a human. Do you still wish to live?
Her eyes opened and sought his face, she became the only human that has seen the fallen angel's true form. He knelt beside her head and placed his hand on her womb. He gave her life in the form of another. You are going to live but you are going to suffer. This child is from my flesh. You will give birth to him and nurture him. One day, he might be the key to achieve the world that we both dream of.

Hell was not a place for humans to dwell but for souls to spend the rest of their days reflecting on the lives they lived on Earth. You realized that everything that Jungkook told you was the truth as you stand in the doorway to Hell wherein the horrifying structure that reached the sky, carved with the flesh and blood of demons with millions of eyes and faces that stare at you. They called it the gates of Gehenna.
Not anyone can open it, only the blood of Satan has the power to summon the gates which stood before you. Jungkook's blood dripped from the cut that he made from his hand to the dark soil where Gehenna lies. He held your hand in his other hand, "Scared?"
"I suddenly feel like peeing." You told him, "Are you sure I can go in there? I'm not going to die right? Can't I just stay at home?"
"You're no longer safe there." Jungkook told you and he was right. They keep going after you. His brother won't stop until he gets you in his hands and Jungkook thought it's better for his sister to hide you. "My father lnows about you, Y/N. I don't know the reason yet but he ordered my brother to bring you to him. I know my brother well. He will do anything in his power to get the throne."
"And your sister? She looks like a two faced bitch. How are you so sure that she's not going to hand me over to your dad?" You questioned. You don't fully trust her. You don't trust anyone of them except for Jungkook.
"My father will never give her the throne. I'm sure of it." Jungkook replied. He has wrapped a cloth over the cut on his hand and took your hand again. "You need to trust me on this. I won't let them have you. I promise."
He made you wear his clothes and a black cloak to mask your scent when you get there. Jungkook pulled the hood over your head, concealing your face, and then you followed him into the gate. Your grip on his hand tightened as your pass through the dimension. Before you left the house, Jungkook warned you that there would be a few discomforts because no human has ever passed through the gates and made it there alive but he reassured you that you'll be fine as long as he was with you.
There was ear splitting screams in your head a few seconds after you entered. You shut your eyes and covered your ears but it wasn't helping. Your body felt heavy, so heavy, it made you drop on your knees like you were tied to an anchor and it was pulling you down to the earth's core. You felt Jungkook lift you up, putting his arms under your legs, and carried until you made it out. "Y/N, are you okay?"
"It felt like my eardrums were going to pop out and I'd bleed from my ears." You said as you tried to stand up with Jungkook's help. Something thick began to trickle down from your nose to your upper lip. You touched it and found blood on your fingers. "Is this.. blood? OH MY GOD I'M BLEEDING."
"It's okay." Jungkook immediately wiped your fingers and your nose as you lean your head down and press the bridge of your nose between your thumb and index finger, a few drops of blood fell on the floor while Jungkook handed you some cloth to wipe the blood off. "You're okay."
Thankfully, the bleeding stopped as soon as it started and you finally saw where you stood. You stared at the sky high ceiling, with dark clouds and hundreds of floating candles, "I think you made a mistake? That huge gate thingy was supposed to warp us to Hell, right? So why are we in Hogwarts?"
"I see that you're perfectly fine." Jungkook sighed as he gave you a look and then walked ahead, "I got so worried over nothing. Wipe your nose, it's bleeding again."
You instantly put your fingers over your nostrils when you heard him and then realized that he was lying. "That motherfucker." You whispered and then ran after him, holding onto his arm when you caught up to him, "So what is this place?"
"Astaroth's place of residence." Jungkook said, pulling the hood of your cloak over your head again as you walked along the spacious hall.
"This is where she lives?" You didn't intend to but you raised your voice a little and Jungkook warned you to keep quiet because the walls literally have eyes and ears. "This is a freaking palace! If this was my house, I wouldn't set foot outside ever again.. but why does she always come to my house? And did you know that she has some serious Sprite addiction?"
"It gets pretty boring when you've lived here for over a thousand years. My sister has a liking towards humans because they used to worship her. That's why she enjoys going up there. She likes watching humans." Jungkook explained and you didn't understand which part of her has a soft spot for humans. She did say she liked Lee Min Ho in that King drama.
"Maybe that's the reason why our dad doesn't trust her with the throne." He turned his face slightly towards you as you came near a giant archway with two torches on each side. "From now on don't talk until I tell you to."
You nodded at him and kept close to him as you exit the hall. Outside the hall was a huge staircase that goes down. Yes, down not up. You peered over the railing, all the way down but you couldn't see where it ends. From this point on, you are blindly following your boyfriend.
Not even halfway down the staircase, you and Jungkook passed by a small goblin looking creature. This dude bowed his head deeply towards Jungkook and Jungkook just ignored the poor fellow.
"You're such a rude bitch." You whispered on his ear and he flinched a little because he was ticklish. Your hand cupped his right butt cheek and gave his sexy ass a nice squeeze. "But you're hot so it's okay."
(lez gotta get dat)
"What the hell are you doing, Y/N?" Jungkook was startled. He stopped and turned to where you are, his face in a scowl. "This is not the fucking time."
"What? I can't help it. You have a nice ass." You pulled the hood a little to reveal your face and flashed him a grin. Jungkook rolled his eyes at you.
"Where are we now anyway?" You whispered to him again when you're sure no one was around.
Jungkook and you finally reached the landing and then you followed him as he turned around the corner where another huge door was. Two demons guarded it, on either side of the door, you assumed that they're demons because of how they looked. They have burnt-looking skin with scales, their faces are so nasty you can't even describe it, they have tails dangling behind them with pointed tips and they wore an armos across their chest and around their genitalias. And the smell, oh god, the smell is the worst part. They smelt like burnt tires.
They opened the door at the sight of Jungkook. You followed Jungkook inside, scooting close to him as much as possible, especially when you passed by the nasty looking demons. The door closed behind you, making you jump because of the loud noise.
"And look who's here." A sweet voice arose from a beautiful woman. She's probably the most beautiful creature you've ever seen. How could she be in Hell?
Her waist length, moon silverdust hair was slicked back, with soft curls at the ends, and it shone like those fake shampoo commercials but this time, it was real. Her eyes are almond shaped and a mesmerizing lilac. She wore a tight, spaghetti strap black dress that reached all the way to the floor like a waterfall. In all honesty, you're a little gay for her.
"My ex fiancé." The girl smiled at Jungkook while you gave him the stank eye. If this demon hoe cheated on you, you swore, demon or not, you will murder his hot ass. "Well, it's nice seeing you but I have somewhere important to be. I'll be on my way."
She left, about to walk past Jungkook when she stopped and looked right at you. Can she see you? She inhaled the air, lifting her nose up, as if she was caught on a scent. You moved close to Jungkook and he stared right back at the girl, "Didn't you say you were busy? The exit is that way."
"I was on my way. I just thought I caught something interesting but it's probably nothing." She smiled, meeting Jungkook's eyes. She stepped forward and leaned towards Jungkook, eyeing him down. "It certainly is nice to see you."
You were holding your breath as the girl looked at your direction again and then turned to leave. You followed her with your gaze until the doors closed behind her and you can finally breathe normally. Astaroth jumped off from her throne and made her way down the stairs to meet you and Jungkook. She knew Jungkook would bring you to her. She was the one who suggested the plan after all.
"Why was she here?" Jungkook sternly asked his sister. You removed the cloak when Jungkook confirmed that it was now safe.
"Dad appointed her as the new Governess of Hell since you downright refused to marry her. You pretty much shamed them so Dad had to do something about that." Astaroth said. You felt better after hearing that Jungkook didn't cheat on you with that pretty lady because that would really hurt. "Anyway, why is Y/N looking at you like that?"
"Because I'm falling in love with him again." You spoke and hugged Jungkook's arm tightly, making him sigh.
"How sweet. Follow me to your room.." Astaroth deadpanned and walked past you. With a wave of her arm, the wall split and slid open like two doors, revealing a dark hallway. She walked in bravely and one by one the torches were lit with flames.
"By the way, who was that woman earlier? I didn't know Jungkook was engaged." You asked in a certain tone that made your boyfriend uncomfortable.
"She's no one." Jungkook told you but Astaroth had other plans.
"Oh her. She's from one of the royal bloodlines of Hell. Her family is second to ours in the hierarchy. That's how influential they are." She explained as she unwrapped the plastic off of her favorite lollipop. "This is a really long story but I'll cut it short. So, Jungkook was supposed to marry her but he refused and made our Dad angry so He locked him up and made him look after the castle of Treachery where all the betrayers are."
"While Jungkook was exiled there for two decades, Dad met this human lady. This lady is Jungkook's human mother. Our Dad, being the most powerful of all, took Jungkook's spirit and placed him in her womb to conceive him. She gave birth to his half human form, and that was how Jungkook was sent to your world."
"Right, Jungkook?" She showed him a grin.
He didn't answer her. You looked at Jungkook, "So that means you're not 25? Are you like 1000 years old or something?"
"You said I'm hot." Jungkook raised his brow at you and smiled, teasing. "I'm 875 years old to be exact."
