The Angelic Demon (Lute X F.OC)

Ambush

"Careful," Lucien warned.

Lute flexed her arm, turned it over, opened and closed her hand, clapping them together with a smile.

"If that smile is anything to go off on our angel's arm it working perfectly fine." Camael said.

Lute looked at her arms, summoning a spear and stabbing it at the overlord's face but she just grabbed the spear. The angel hummed and unsummoned the spear, only the bat demon looking shocked.

"Yep, now it is for certain." Rolling her shoulders and stretching. "How until I can fly again?"

"Probably two more weeks and you should also be careful with that arm still, it was bad when you were brought in."

"I am not an idiot Lucien."

"Well sorry for trying to look out for you."

Lute rolled her eyes, happy she finally had most use of her arm back, she was a bit bummed her wing would take longer but she'll survive.

"Don't even start you two." Camael spoke up. "I don't need to deal with you squabbling over nothing."

"Yes ma'am."

"Good... Lute?"

"Fine, whatever, can we get it on with this?"

"Yeah yeah, thanks Lucien, see you later." Camael waved at him as he gave a little bow back.

"Of course ma'am, see you soon."

"Didn't you say there was something familial with Lucien?" Lute asked outside of the little dinner.

"Sure but that boy is stubborn, he insists on calling me that. Even tho, if I somehow end up dying the overlord title and deals go to him and he takes the empire over."

"You sure seem to care for him."

"I do I suppose, he is quite innocent for a demon, I couldn't figure out why he is in hell." Lute couldn't either in all honestly. "But he does a good job and all. I have him in a deal because I got him from Valentino."

"I know that, he told me."

"Oooh you are getting friendly with other demons~?"

"Shut up bitch, it was when I sliced my head open on the pavement, he was nearby and we ran into each other, talked a bit I guess. He told me to not trust that guy."

"He did good, Valentino is alive purely because I don't want to take over the pleasure industry. Being an overlord too, if I kill him that means I'd have his territories and business, plus he sells my stuff to his people."

"I mean if you struggle so much with sinners wanting to fuck you wouldn't it help to control that outlet?"

"Probably not bu--" The loud cracking of a gun rang out, Camael's first reaction being a hand on Lute's head and push her down to the side with her body covering her.

Lute caught herself on her arms, some numbing pain shooting up her arm, making her hiss but it was covered with someone else's scream.

"Camael!" She called out, seeing the lord's hands over her eyes as she stumbled back until her back hit the nearest wall.

Summoning her spear she stood up, hurrying over.

Grabbing a wrist to pull it off.

"Shit." She hissed.

"Is it that bad?" Camael muttered, the bullet had gone through her face she knew that because of the pain but it had spread so fast that she couldn't tell the impact point from the rest of the intact skin.

"Shot out your top left eye." Lute simple said, the eye almost dripping out like jelly with a hole there in the side of her head when the bullet existed.

"Great." She got back on her feet, gathering herself, pulling out her gun, a weapon she reserved for demons.

Lute looked around before Camael stood in front of her.

"I'd step down overlord! We are too many for even you! You just need to hand the angel over and we'll leave you alone."

"Shit, someone must have seen me cut myself." Lute said which immediately quelled the sudden confusion from Camael.

"Go back to Lucien. Now." She demanded, Lute seeing many armed demons come out of hiding.

"You can't hope to stand up against them all."

"Oh but I will." Camael grinned huge as her blood covered a good half of her face. "I just can't keep you safe for certain." Pulling out golden throwing knives and she whispered to the angel. "When they rush us, because they will, run down the alley just to our right, go left, it will be the street behind the dinner, the red door is the back entrance."

"Camael."

"That's an order or do you want me to use that leash of yours?"

"Bitch."

"Come on Lute, you heard them. They are right, too many for me to  hold them all back, you need to go, you'll be safe with Lucien."

She tightened her hold on her summoned spear with a frown, feeling like a coward but as the first of the demons rushed forth, she ran the opposite way.

"AFTER HER!!"

"Only through my body!" Throwing the knives and unloading the gun. "Come at me you dirty sinners and face my wrath!"

Lute felt so slow just running, if only she could fly she would have gotten to Lucien much faster.

Hearing the shots and screams made her run faster with an even worse frown, feeling much worse in leaving Camael behind then she ever did any other exorcists feld by said demon.

Running towards the red door but before being able to grab the door knob, a net caught her.

The demons dropped the net launcher with a smile.

She struggled against it, gasping when a kick was driven into her side.

"Shit." She muttered.

"Shit indeed~" The demon laughed.

"What?"

"I never saw Lute ma'am." Lucien gently said. "Please come in, lets fix you up." She yanked her hand out of his hold.

She didn't care for the state she was in.

It seems someone's about to die.
