Path of Night

The Mephisto Walz

I was alone for a while. I guess that is a good time to think about everything, but I just couldn't. I just stared through the window. At one point Dorian came in and told me to get ready. I don't know why he came just to tell me that, I mean, I was already in the dress that I would wear tonight. I looked in the mirror and fixed my hair. If someone told me that this would happened, I would have laughed at their face. Dorian come again.

"You ready?"

"I have no choice right?"

Both of us let out a small laugh.

"How are you feeling?"

"Nervous, scared, confused, and a bunch of other things. I just, don't know what to feel, or do, or think, for that matter."

"I can't help, you know that."

"Yea, I guess that I am scared of what others will think."

"Others who? As I see it, the only ones that you should care about are me, Prudence and Ambrose. And those two will..."

"Shhhh, shut up!" - I whispered-yelled

"Why?"

"Just shush! You hear that?"

Masquerade! Every face a different shade
Masquerade! Look around, there's another mask behind you

"What is that?"

"It's Sabrina's voice. But why is she..."

"Maybe she accepted it."

"Really, Dorian? Sabrina accepting something when not two minutes ago she was hardly against it. No, she is up to something."

"Well, I would love to hear you sing again."

"Dorian..." - I said sadly

"What? You're song is much more meaningful and..."

"Dorian, look, you know why I can't sing."

"I know Sephone, but maybe now you can finish it."

I wanted to answer, but...

'Mr. Gray has a very interesting idea.'

Great...

'You are going to sing your song.'

I turned towards Dorian.

"Well, your wish just came true."

"What?"

"Lucifer told me I have to sing."

Dorian laughed. I just gave him a look that was supposed to be intimidating, but failed in that, so we both laughed.

"It's almost time."

"And know may I present you all, your queen, Calisa Persephone"

Here we go... I made my way to the stairs, everyone is going to watch me, I need to pull myself together. Deep breaths, one, two, three, four, and I started to sing.

I can forgive, but not forget,
The way I felt the day you left.
Why did you have to leave?
I remember standing still
Trying so hard not to feel,
Trying not to shed a tear.
But you left me here,
Broken and alone
In a world where I
Clearly don't belong.
I kept asking myself
What did I do wrong
But I guess that for you
I just wasn't good enough.
I tried so hard to get
Over everything.
But maybe now
I can finally breath.
I might have a chance
To live my life again.

By the end of the song everyone was staring at me. I bowed down and let Lucifer place a crown on my head. We danced the waltz, but just as I was about to tell him that others are casting a spell, someone pulled me in the back of the room. I had no time to react as Sabrina trapped Lucifer in the Acheron configuration. I was near Prudence, she told me that everyone thinks that Lucifer put me under a spell, so I decided to pretend. The Acheron blew up releasing Lucifer. Zelda and Sabrina told him that they know about the "spell" he put on me. He faked that he knows what they are talking about. Lilith was keeping him bound, until Nick said that he is going to bind Lucifer in his body as a flesh prison. Before he was pulled inside of Nick, Lucifer said next two sentences looking straight at Sabrina. Two sentences that left everyone frozen. Two sentences that no one knew were meant for someone else, not Sabrina. Two sentences that are going to change everything:

"You have darkness in you waiting to be let out. And one day, you will break and come to me."
