Chapter 1

3rd POV

Clary and Simon went to the pack and found out that they had heard the same scream, and it made a few of them pass out from how painful it was. Once they got outside, they were immediately called, and Clary answered and put the phone on speaker for Simon to hear as well. 

"What's up" she said "we just left--" 

"You need to get over here, like now" Alec said frantically and then ended the call, and Clary and Simon looked at each-other before Simon picked Clary up and used his vampire speed to get back at the institute in a second or two. Once there he set Clary down and they went to Alec's office to see everyone there: Jace, Alec, Magnus, and Izzy. Luke arrived five minute later, and Raphael arrived two seconds afterwards. The Seelies weren't attending because they were in a different realm. 

"Something happened down below" Alec said immediately once someone was there, and Raphael wasn't happy about this sudden spurt off irrelevant information. 

"How is this important" he said and Luke, for once agreed with the vampire. 

"Well this portal appeared in Valentines new cell downstairs, and we have had to move him yet again because of it, but I had a team examine it and we found out that it was a demon-world portal going directly into the deepest level of Hell, and we wanted a team of demons to go in and check-out the other side. Then come back and repo---tell us what is on the other side of it" Alec said as he switched between Simon, Raphael, and Luke. 

"Wait you want me to travel with a werewolf? Right?" Raphael said and Luke didn't want to travel with a vampire either, and then Clary spoke-up. 

"Well either you guys stick together and work as a team just this once, or I'll go in alone and I know that Simon and Luke wouldn't want me to, but you don't care do you" Clary was talking directly to Raphael "but I do know who you do have feelings for, and if you don't do this then everyone will know as well." Raphael was surprised and he didn't bother to hide it, how could she know that he had feelings for Izzy, but he nodded anyways because he didn't want the entire state of New York knowing that he loved Izzy. Making her the main target during a vampire war, uprisings in the vampire ranks, and leadership tests. 

"Good, but you have to help as well" she said and Raphael nodded filled with a little anger, and a little dread that Clary knew. The next day they were downstairs and ready to enter the Portal, and on the other side the creature in chains was getting it's stored-up power ready to use to get out of the chains, blast through the portal, and close it from the other side. 

Creature's POV

I put a shield on the other side of the portal so that nothing could get into this realm from the other side and then I focused on healing my wings. Everything else had healed from the previous year, and after seeing that it was going to be alone and bleeding for ten years in this chained reality. I redirected all power to healing my wings, and by now they were half-way there, but I sped up the process with my powers and a day or two later they were fully healed. I felt something bash against the Portal and I smiled, good thing I put up that shield, and then I screeched with joy, warning, and power as I felt my freedom was close. After I had healed my wings and then the rest of my body. I sat there for three days and my power had re-inflated to it's full potential. I drew upon it and made the Portal grow bigger, and then I hoped that my next idea worked on the soul chains. I used my angelic power to start to burn away them at the base, I felt some more angelic power on the other side, so I drew upon it, and slowly but surely the chains, just the chains, broke away and turned to ash once disconnected. I ripped out my claws from the decaying holds that held my paws and claws to the ground, and then I tried to break my muzzle, but it wouldn't decay. It was a stronger, different material that I couldn't break at the moment, and I huffed in annoyance and stretched before turning around and watching as I ripped my tail from the hold it was in. I was glowing at the moment, full of angelic power, runes were glowing all across my body. Ancient runes that the race beyond had more than likely never seen before nor even known about. I stopped drawing upon the power from the other side of the Portal, and stretched my sore, tired, and protesting pain-filled muscles. 

I felt that the space wouldn't be big enough for me to go through, so I had to move it, and I did. I moved it until I found an area big enough for me to be able to fit on the other side, and then I stopped and slept. When I woke up I realized that today was the end of nine years and the tenth year's start, and Asmodeus was going to be bad in three hours. I quickly got up and I was about to shoot forward when something wrapped around my foot and dragged me back. I wasn't filled with angelic power at the moment, so I looked back and burned it away with a glowing paw. I was going to go through, but this disturbance would follow me through and I didn't want that to happen. I turned around to see that Asmodeus was early, and angry that I was free of my confinement. 

I huffed and growled loudly at him, he was not getting through that portal even if it killed me in the process. I hissed louder as his three headed dragon-pet appeared as well, and I figured that this would be the time to leave, but I needed to take something from him, and Asmodeus left saying. 

"I see that you wings have healed, though it is slightly expected, you won't survive this challenge, and if you do then I'll finish you off you slithering creature" his voice faded into laughter afterwards and I roared at the dragon through my muzzle, and though I couldn't breath fire. I could still talk, growl, roar, and hiss at it, and I still had my claws and tail. I got down low and shot forwards, and it seemed to think that I was trying to go for it's faces because it rose up and prepared to spray acid at me. I decided to test something out, and I stopped mid-charge and turned sideways as the acid came towards my face, and then I tilted my head to not get any of the splash on me and once the acid hit the metal. It did exactly what I wanted it to. It burned away the metal very quickly, and I had to turn my head around to get the entire thing off. 

I could feel the air on my snout and I stretched my jaws out for a second taking advantage of the Hydra's fear and confusion, and once I got to a certain point the broken band snapped and I was completely free now. The Hyrda could see how powerful I was, my snout was covered in battle-scars from my many fights with the seven princes of hell, my teeth were silver and black mixed together in swirls like a Zebra from the human world. My mouth was a pitch-black that dripped with a venom even more dangerous than the one that I was tortured with, but Asmodeus couldn't use it because I was immune to all forms of my own poisons and venom. I was the most dangerous creature in the realm, and the Hydra knew it, but was too stupid to accept it's demise.

It rushed at me with full speed, but I stepped aside, and it barreled past, as my black and purple claws cut through it's skin like butter, and now that the venom in my claws was in it's system I guessed that I had about a day until it disintegrated into black ash. The purple poison on my claws that slowly crawled it's way to the heart unbeknownst to the creature that has been affected by it other than the point of entry and the purple-black spot that appears an hour before the poison reaches the heart and destroys it. I wasn't paying attention and barely avoided the Hydra's claws as they flew towards my face, but I ducked my head and lashed out with my tail cutting through it's paw at the joint, coincidentally, and cutting it off as the Hydra swiped through the empty air. The limb flew through the air turning into black ash as it wasn't connected to anything living anymore, and sadly for the Hydra, it couldn't regrow limbs like I could. 

The creature roared in pain and anger that I stole it's hand with my very sharp tail, but I was getting bored and I was about to do a quick flip and cut off all three of it's heads with my back claws that burned with a black fire only known in the Demon realm, and only traced to me as the sole holder of this type of fire. When I was blasted in the side unexpectedly by some purple fire from the Hydra's friends and family, about fifteen more that I had to face. I huffed and got up before cutting off the back leg of the first one that I was facing and made a shield so that the others had to watch as I walked up to the heads and then cut them off with my tail before burning the stumps with my fire from inside me, and then I watched as the body turned to ash. Then the barrier was taken away and the entire family rushed me filled with anger and malice. 

Thanks for reading and I'll have another chapter out soon.
