The Book Of Life.
It was night time, I.M.P. had just gone through a very rough day, constantly battling with cherubs over the life of a rich old inventor.
Blitzø where's curious, going as far as to sneak into En's in order to find any dirt on him, to try and understand why he freaked out like that earlier.
.
.
.
As Blitzø entered the house, he heard some noise coming from En's Bedroom.
Curious, Blitzø made his way into En's bedroom, only to find the place empty, everything was perfectly fine and unmoved, the only difference being that En wasn't in his room...
But instead of worrying where the angel was, Blitzø was immediately distracted as he saw a gold and white book sitting in a glass container.
It was at that moment, that Blitzø knew what he needed to do.
.
.
.
An Hour later, Moxxie, who was just asleep with his wife Millie, woke up to Blitzø bouncing up and down on his chest and excitement, waving around a gold and white book.
.
.
.
5 minutes later, Moxxie and Millie were awake and dressed, wondering what their boss had woken them up for.
Millie was excited and curious, while Moxxie was annoyed while also being very curious. "Sir, why did you wake us up at 2:00 in the morning?" Moxxie said, annoyed at his boss.
Blitzø then spoke up as he slammed the book on the ground. "Well, I was wondering why En was so mad at us earlier. so I went into his house, a very snazzy penthouse by the way, and I stole this book, it's most likely his diary or something, the point is, our answers are probably in this book!" Blitzø said confidently and triumphantly as Millie clapped her hands in excitement.
Moxxie was just about to complain to his boss and explain to him why stealing from a powerful angel was a bad idea.
Blitzø simply waved off the thought as he woke up Loona, who was sleeping on the ground.
.
.
.
Moments later, when everyone was somewhat fully awake and ready, Blitzø open the book, only to then be disappointed. "What the?! It's just nothing but narrations of everything that's recently happened!" Blitzø yelled out before then throwing a temper tantrum and screaming something out in rage.
"Stupid book! Just show us all the juicy stuff about your owner!" Blitzø Yelled as suddenly the book started to Glow as it opened itself and flipped many pages backward.
Suddenly the whole room was engulfed in light, inciting oohs and aahs from the four, as the whole room then looked like a whole different place. It looked like heaven weirdly enough.
"Uh sir? What are we doing in the hea-" Moxxie started to speak before the whole place started to shake.
A chorus of singers appeared and a large stomping noise could be heard as the heavens then instantly descended into silence once more, before even more singing and stomping happened, followed by silence and the ticking of a grandfather clock.
The group hid behind a large array of clouds as more singing could be heard, this time followed by a large beastial roar and the sound of someone sketching art.
Various other sounds started to pile on with the singing and stomping, until the sky started twisting, the sun and the moon were rapidly spinning about the sky instantly changing from night to day and vice versa.
Before instantly crescendoing as a portal appeared in the middle of the clouds, now able to get better look, Blitzø and the others could see a uncountable amount of angels surrounding the portal as if they were in stands.
Suddenly a large shockwave blasted from the portal as the clouds started to rise and transform into a stage. After a third crescendo and shockwave, a figure finally emerged from the portal, tearing it open much wider as the figure started to sing.
"Ladies and gents, this is the moment you've waited for," the mysterious figure sung as it fully emerged from the portal.
(Not my art)
The figure started to sing as voices could be heard chanting from all around "MET-A-TRON! MET-A-TRON! MET-A-TRON!" The voice is chanted as this Metatron guy continued to sing.
.
.
.
Near the end of the song, Metatron pointed above him as a second angel appeared, this one being much shorter.
(Again not my art)
"Take it away Sammy!" Metatron said as he vanished in a blast of light. suddenly the room returned to Moxxie and Millies living room as Loona then spoke this time.
"Who the fuck was that?" Loona said, utterly confused as the book started to grow and a monotone voice started to speak. "That was the King Of Heaven, Metatron in all his glory, this event was before the Eden accident." The book said before the room changed once more, this time the room had changed to a white, gold and Azure pristine Castle.
.
.
.
And the same exact time, En with having a nightmare, a nightmare of That day.
He was standing above samael, who was locked in chains and Screaming in pain as En kicked him in the gut and slowly ripped off his wings with his bare hands. "Samael... I can't Fucking believe you... After every-damn-thing, you throw your life away, for fucking what?!" En spoke as he couldn't control his mouth, he silently prayed and wished that he didn't do what he knew was coming.
"A fucking mortal?!?! A finite being?! You'd throw everything away, and for what?!?!" En screamed out as Samael didn't speak. Pissed that Samael wouldn't answer him, En watched as he ripped out, not only Samaels wings, but his entire spine, en tried to close his eyes as he was forced to watch himself cover Samaels sounds in salt and acid, all while preventing Samael from Healing.
"...hy............Ar........?" Samael sputtered out has blood flooded out of his mouth.
"What was that, Samael? Did you learn your lesson? just apologize and everything will go back to normal..." En said, still unable to stop himself or control his body.
The bloody angel, in immense pain then perfectly spoke through the pain. "I said... Why do you care Metatron?" It was at that moment, that En regretted his actions the most, and yet, he could only watch as everything happened...
En or Metatron, plunged his fists into Samaels shoulder blades, spreading a blinding and searing white flame throughout the Angel's body.
Samael screamed in unimaginable pain as his body and soul were permanently bleached by the flame, his skin now a charred White, his wings now white, permanently stained with his own red blood, his teeth, deformed into things, his eyes resembling those of a beastly monster.
.
.
.
It was at that moment that Samael, The Joy bringer, had died, was murdered and brutalized and in his place was Lucifer...
Metatron roared out to the now fallen angel as he cast him down from the heavens.
.
.
.
Back with I.M.P. the group had just witnessed Lucifer's fall from Grace, only to immediately feel sad for the guy, and discussed towards the king of Heaven... Suddenly the area changed once more, now it was a pristine bedroom colored the exact same colors as the place Samael had fallen.
This was obviously thousands of years later, and the King looked down from heaven, down to hell... He couldn't understand it.
He ripped everything from Samael, burned his soul and made him a monster... And yet? The now renamed Lucifer had everything that Metatron wanted. Lucifer had friends in the form of the sins, unlike the citizens of Heaven, they didn't just follow Lucifer blindly because he was the king, they didn't just pretend to be his friend because he was stronger.
Lucifer had a wife. He had love... Something Metatron could never...
In many ways, Lucifer had everything, and Metatron had nothing...
Angered by this revelation, the king of Heaven made his way to the mortal world where he saw a civilization which had gained technology eons past what they were supposed to have. They had tamed the oceans and the world in ways undreamed.
During all of this, I.M.P. could only watch and stay hidden as the book showed them what they wanted.
sadly, this peaceful and advanced civilization would now become the target of Metatrons wrath.
And as such, the king decreed it had to go.
Metatron raised his hand and pointed at the civilization from the clouds.
In the blink of an eye, the clouds glowed blood red... And then in another blink of an eye, nothing was there...
...And so was the Fate of Atlantis...
(Yep, Atlantis got the Lulusia treatment.)
The surroundings would change once more, now showing a sobbing King Of Heaven...
Cold and barren, alone and unloved... So the king had an idea, in order to become a better King for his people, a better person, a better angel... For Samael... He forced his soul out of his body, he left the heavens and was reborn as a human.
Moxxie then spoke. "And I thought Blitz was an asshole... To think that heaven had such a hypocritical ruler."
But the book kept showing them things. As they saw then king of heaven, reborn without memories or powers, as Enoch.
They watched as they saw Enoch's life in fragments... Eventually seeing his death, I watched as he was reborn as an angel once more, but now tempered with compassion and humility, with humanity...
But... The imps watched something odd... When The high seraphim, his sister Sera, welcome to him back to heaven and gave him his throne to reclaim...
He refused, instead, he wished to have an afterlife of peace and tranquility, no longer reminded of the cruel and horrible king he once was... The group watched as Metatron shed his form and Name, Now calling himself Enoch. He became a librarian in heaven, although he was constantly asked to reclaim his throne by his sister in various other angels, the king wanted nothing to do with his old life, now he truly hated the hypocritical monster he was...
The figure of Enoch would then become colored as I.M.P. looked at the library in awe and shock.
"It's En..." Loona whispered to herself, only capable of staring in shock the person En once was.
.
.
.
The imps then watched as everything kept on going, eventually seeing the reason why En could not return to heaven.
He tore his Halo in half, soaked the heavens with his blood and faked his death... He then went to hell and finally the book showed them En in his present place in life, working as the manager of funds and banker for IM.P.
After witnessing everything, Blitzø yelled at the book one final question. "What are you?!" The book then spoke in a monotone voice once more. "The book of Life, a sacred tome belonging to the king of Heaven, The book of Life depicts every event that has happened, is happening and will happen, the king of Heaven is the only one capable of editing the book of Life."
The book then shut closed as I.M.P. set their sights on a new job, trying to clear their heads of everything they had just seen and witnessed.
.
.
.
En finally awoke, confused as he saw that he was in his old bed. In his bedroom in heaven. Which could only one thing.
En prepared to jump off of his bed and fly out of the palace, only to then stop directly in his tracks as a voice cut him off.
"Metatron..... it's been so damned long!" The voice said as Sera, the high seraphim said as she tackled her "brother" and cried on his shoulder.
En knew he had a lot of explaining to do, and he had to find a way to get out of heaven without being noticed by anyone else...
End of chapter...
