So creation continued, the Heavens watching over Earth and occasionally having to chase the ones from Hell around, trying to find the extremely well hidden Fallen they all sought for answers. Each decade, a massive hunt occurred across the globe. Each decade, the heavenly forces were becoming quicker at locating the hiding places. So passed the first three days of (resets for three thousand years) of creation. Finally, as Sera was searching for Lucifer via the Book of Knowledge, he was in the Garden, wrapped around the singular fruit tree with the giant 'DO NOT TOUCH, SMELL, LOOK, OR TASTE ANY PART OF THIS TREE AND THE LEAVES AND THE FRUITS AND THE ROOTS AND THE FLOWERS!' which kept being consumed by Adam every three days.
"Helllllllo, Eve. Have yoooou evvvvver triiiiiieeeeeed thisssssss fruit?" Lucifer was charming as a serpent with legs. Eve shook her head, wishing she was that cool. Unfortunately, Adam wouldn't ever let her dream of being cool or even allow her to think if he could help it. Lucifer just wanted Humanity to have the chance at creativity and free will he had enjoyed since he had been crafted.
"God said not to." Eve did look curious at the fruit Lucifer offered her.
"Jussst holding it isssss not bad." Lucifer smiled as she held the fruit. He told her that the fruit smelled quite good and splitting it open wouldn't be against was God said. Soon, she was quite ready to try some of the juice of the apple she was holding.
"How do you know good from bad?" Eve asked innocently as she brought it close to her mouth.
"I drank the sssssssacred waterssssssss and created that tree. The applesssss are the sssssssweetesssssssst in all the realmssssss. You would know good from evil and be like God if you only took the sssssssasmallessssssst bite. He'll never find out, I promissssssse." Lucifer vanished the moment she took a bite. She was suddenly aware of her nakedness and hid in shame. Adam saw Eve hiding and snuck up behind her.
"Hey, Eve! Why're you hiding?" Adam smiled at his beautiful but very dumb wife. Eve saw that Adam was only lustful after her so she gave the apple to him.
"I found this fruit down the hill! It's so sweet! Try it!" She smirked. If she was going down, this bitch of a man was going down too. She then realized that she had lied and realized that it wasn't good but it didn't feel evil, just bad.
"Oh my fucking balls! These are so great!" Adam declared, having finished the apple in seconds. When they went to eat another one, it was so sour. A booming voice was heard throughout the heavens and the earth and hell.
"Adam? Eve? Where are you?" God called out, having an image of himself appear in the garden. There was no answer. God called out a second time.
"Adam and Eve, why do you hide from Me?"
"Because we are ashamed of our nakedness, Father!"
Adam called out, both of them emerged with clothing made from leaves.
"Who told you that you were naked?" God asked, already knowing the answer.
"No one! I know because I ate a fruit!" Adam exclaimed.
"Why did you eat it?" God asked.
"Eve, that wretched bitch did!" Adam shouted, shoving Eve in front of himself.
"Eve? Why did you eat the fruit?" God asked.
"The Serpent told me to!" Eve shouted, pointing to the cool snake with legs that wasn't Lucifer.
"The serpent shall forever be cursed to wiggle on the ground on its belly and be the foe of all men and women. Adam and Eve, you have sinned and shall be cast out of Eden!" God declared, vanishing from the garden. An angel with a flaming sword kicked them out. Adam and Eve had betrayed God all for a Granny Smith apple that would be forever cursed to be sour and its golden hue turned green.
Mere moments later, Lilith appeared, grabbed a sleeping Lucifer and disappeared right as Sera and Michael flew into the garden.
"Michael! We need to reset it! They distracted us from being here to prevent them from committing sin! If we reset it, we could also grab Lucifer as Contract Day dawns!" Sera didn't want Adam to suffer as he was quite literally the dumbest person in all of creation and barely survived in paradise, let alone outside of it.
"No. Father just sent me a note that we can no longer restart time without direct permission from the Space Time Miracle Department Helpline." Michael replied.
"I'm sorry. What did you just say?" Sera prayed she heard that wrong. Micheal took a few minutes to answer, searching for Sameal
"No Space Time miracles unless the hotline says so." Micheal slowly realized who was in charge of that. "Ah. I see the problem here."
"Really?! YOU ONLY SAW IT NOW?!" Sera screeched at him in an almost impressive volume that even made He'll freeze, wondering what that sound was.
—In Hell, Day One (Truly)—
"I... I swear on my Father, I just heard Sera." Lucifer whispered after being terrified at the voice and the volume. He was shaking like a leaf, pale and silent tears falling from his golden eyes, behind the very large body of Bortus. Lilith's heart was so close to shattering. Sera was as close to a Fallen as one could get due to the way she used, abused, and discarded others. She had taken to insulting and belittling Lucifer since she had met the other via the Father. She knelt down and slowly coaxed Lucifer to let go of Bortus and wrap around her instead. Once she had him in her arms, she started gently rocking back and forth.
"Oh, Luci. It's okay now. See, she can't do anything to you anymore. That bitch went to far and I won't even allow anyone to let you two speak directly to each other without both Azrael and I there. I promise." Lilith was true to her word, Lucifer never saw Sera without Azrael and Lilith to keep him safe. Slowly and steadily, Azrael and Lilith became best friends and Lucifer was finally, finally close to a sibling. Even when the Exterminations began, all three got along as well as a church on fire.
