Chapter 4: BANISHMENT
? THE KINGDOM OF THE SUPREME BEING?
In the presence of lightning and thunder, a league of Angels could be seen fighting against one other Angel.
“Where is our brother Lucifer?” ArchAngel camael shouted at him.
“I don’t know where he is camael, let me be” Lucifer replied glaring at him.
“I won’t ask you again betrayer, where is our brother?” Camael barked and his eyes started sparkling.
“Dead, he’s dead, I killed him.”
“What are you gonna do now?” Lucifer muttered and chuckled making a roaring thunder blast.
“You can’t fight me cause I have the forbidden sword and you are no match to me.”
“Not I alone but we all” camael replied in a voice of thousand Angels.
They all attacked Lucifer one more time but he made himself into multiples.
Being a being of great power he started singing making most of the Angels lose focus and he used his forbidden sword on them.
The fight was going in his favor when a figure appeared and stood before him the light coming out of the being’s body shining so brightly.
“Michael?”
“How is that possible?” He whispered taking steps backward.
“You will know once you are banished” Michael whispered and stopped the fight.
Just as the fight stopped a dark shiny cloud appeared above them and the supreme being with the great one came out of it.
“Please forgive him father” the great one pleaded his hands clutched together.
“Indeed you are the compassionate one as you are called but not this time.
“This traitor, betrayer, and liar can’t be in my kingdom anymore” the supreme answered in his chilled icy voice.
“From today henceforth Lucifer, I banish you from my presence.”
“I denounce your right to be an Angel of light.”
“Today I make you an Angel of darkness.”
“Leave” the supreme being ordered.
“Where will I stay father? How do I survive?” Lucifer seeing his secret has been known asked in tears.
“Your powers won’t be taken away from you cause I am a merciful being.”
“I have made a place you deserve.”
“A place burning with eternal fire”
“Above the earth, your kingdom has been kept.”
“I do not ever want to see you in my kingdom or my presence.”
“You will roam the face of the earth as a fugitive and vagabond.”
“Suffering will you live in for eternality.”
“Take him away Michael, place him in the arranged.”
“I’m sorry father, please forgive me” Lucifer whispered on his knees.
The supreme being was moved and a tear slipped from his eye and he whispered in a voice that the Angels haven’t heard him speak in before.
A voice that was so light like that of a baby and he said; “A SERVANT CANT OVER THRONE HIS MASTER, YOUR HEART IS FULL OF EVIL, ALL YOU SAY IS LIES.”
“I CURSE THE DAY I MET YOU LUCIFER.”
“IN YOU THE WORD LIES WAS FOUND.”
“THE DAY I SET MY EYES ON YOU AGAIN— TILL THEN”
The supreme being kept his last words to himself and started walking away.
“You can’t do that father” Lucifer screamed and charged towards the supreme being but just as he was close his flourished shiny golden wings darkened and his armor changed to a dark cloak.
“Take him away.” The supreme being ordered and vanished with the Great one and other Angels.
Michael charged towards him and he fought back but Michael overpowered him and sent him away into his new abode.
“You are only allowed to roam the earth but never allowed to come above” Michael let out.
“How did you survive?”
“I know you died.”
“I’m not in the position to tell you that story Angel of the dark.
“Our new Angel will” Michael replied and Raphael walked in.
“You?” Lucifer mumbled his jaws dropped.
“Yes me Lucifer, this is how it happened.”
? FLASHBACK?
“After our practice and after you both dropped me at home I couldn’t rest.”
“I knew something was going on with you so I followed you both.”
“I watched you attack brother Michael and I ran off.”
“I knocked on the great gate for hours yet no answer.”
“I felt it when Michael died and then I fainted.”
? AUTHORS POV ?
The Supreme being in his trance saw everything that happened and in a heavy heart stood up.
“Open the gate Gabriel and bring in the little angel at the gate” the supreme being commanded.
In the podium, Lucifer was still singing while his other was on his way back.
Gabriel without asking questions rushed out and came back with the little Angel in his arms.Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
“Go to the bridge Camael, go through the airy lane.”
“Do not panic at the sight you will behold but instead grab him and bring him home.”
“He is in the state of departure, be fast” the supreme being commanded.
Camael flew off immediately.
“Son” he called.
“Yes, father” the great one answered walking in.
“Breathe on him.”
The great one did as he was told and breathed on him.
“Ouch,” the little Angel let out and woke up.
He looked up to behold the sight of the Supreme being and fainted again.
A smile touched the lips of the supreme being and he rubbed the hair of the little Angel with so much affection.
Just then camael entered back with Michael tears in his eyes.
“His dead father,” camael cried out.

Lucifer got close to the gate and being an Angel full of wisdom disappeared and entered into his main form smiles on his face.

“What happened to him father?” the great one asked holding Michael in his arms.
The little Angel woke up immediately and his sight landed on Michael.
“He killed him, he killed him supreme being” the little being wailed going close to Michael sobbing.
“Who did?” The great one asked.
“Brother Lucifer.”
“He killed him with the forbidden sword, I saw it when the fight started but felt it when brother Michael died.”
“You will be called Raphael” the voice of the supreme being sounded.
“Speak to him Raphael and he will be healed and rise.”
“Only your voice can heal him.”
Gabriel and camael stared at the supreme being amazed but the great one smiled.
“But father I’m just a little being” Raphael grumbled.
“You are no more a being Raphael but an Angel” the supreme being muttered.
Raphael stared at Michael and closed his eyes.
“Rise, Archangel Michael, the leader of the host of Angels.”
Just as the words left Raphael’s lips a great wave started blowing, covering up Michael and in a split of seconds, Michael stood up healed shining more charming than ever.
“Father,” Michael whispered and bowed.
The supreme being touched his hair and told camael, Raphael, and Gabriel to kneel.
“I anoint you all and from now henceforth you all are no more Angels but Archangels.”
Just like in Michaels’s turn, a crown appeared on their heads and a new armor appeared on them.
“Camael take with you a league of Angels and take that Lucifer away from my presence.”
Just as the supreme said camael did.

After their story, Lucifer laughed and walked away from them the forbidden sword in his hands.
“Goodbye brother” both Michael and Raphael whispered and vanished.
“I can’t stay here alone” Lucifer screamed scattering his long hair but suddenly stopped and laughed.
“This place needs arrangement” he whispered walking off.
