Malum {Undergoing Major Editing}

Chapter Five: The Road trip.

What Wrath did next surprised me more than anything that has ever happened to me.

"I get you," Wrath spoke, as if he was in a trance, "I know what's it like to live without love. I was created in that chalice, by the blood of Lucifer. Anything created in Malum, which is the name of the chalice, is evil. Malum literally translates into evil. I was pieced together for the sole purpose of evil. I was treated like shit. I know what's it like to live with the image of fake love."

Listening to what Wrath said touched my heart. He kept going, "I never had a childhood. I never had a mother so I can never feel the love of a parent. Lucifer doesn't qualify as a father. He hated me and I hated him. The only people I had were my brothers so I get why you love the church boy so much. I've never felt any other emotion besides Wrath for years because of the way Lucifer treated me. I can never understand what you went through but I know what you felt when hate was all around you."

I wanted to ask what Lucifer did to him but something told me not to. I looked at his face, drowned in the past, illuminated by the sunshine. I noticed his eyes sparkling with unshed tears. My heart pained for him. I placed my hand on top of his which made him look at me.

"Life gets better, Wrath. It does. I've learnt so much in my life because of my sadness. I've learnt the difference between loneliness and being alone. I've learnt that life gets better. I've learnt to be strong."

He looked at me and smiled. Not a smirk, a genuine smile, "I have never told this to the guys. It was always uncomfortable to talk about this with them, but it was nice telling it to you."

I wanted to hug him but I heard someone call my name. He removed his hand from under mine and we walked towards the person who called.

"Every country has a Seer," Envy stated.

"Some countries have more," Sloth added.

"Do you know any countries that have a lot of demonic activities?" Greed asked.

"No I don't! I don't spend my free time googling demonic areas!" I retorted.

"Googling?" Lust asked.

"Yeah Google. It's a search engine on the Internet," I explained.

They all looked at me confused. I got out my laptop and explain what Google was. They all looked like they were introduced to a whole new world.

I did some research on the topics and told them everything that fit their description.

"Wait, what is that?" Wrath said, pointing to some church.

"That's the church of Satan. A religious organisation dedicated to satanism," I informed.

"That seems like a good place to start. Where is it?" He asked.

"San Francisco, California."

"Great! Let's go!" Sloth suggested, "right after a nap!"

"We need money for a plane ticket, or we can drive there! There is one issue though, I can't drive. Joshua has to take us."

All the seven sins groaned and rolled their eyes. Wrath and Lust seemed more annoyed at Joshua joining us. It seems they were desperate to find the chalice so they agreed.
