4 - Death Comes To Visit

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

A few months have passed since the four demons were born, and the family was more than happy. Spike and Lucifer have gotten closer than they normally were before. Spike learnt a little bit more about his past, and was surprised by what he learned. He didn’t think that his demonic father: the King of all demons was a big softie. Who knew that he loved and adored animals? Spike couldn’t help but smile at that, and they became closer than ever.

Spike had forgotten one tiny detail before he had left the hospital with his wifes, and that was that they hadn’t fully regenerated yet. Luckily, Lucifer helped with the healing part, while Chrysalis looked like she was gonna have an orgams. Spike couldn’t help but chuckle. His mother and aunt had looked mortified over the fact that Chrysalis was almost having an orgasm while they had pain! Open wounds, and wouldn’t have been surprised if they got a serious infection!

Spike and his children had bonded fairly well, and they had started to learn things like the etiquette used on Canterlot and Hell. Celestia and Luna had almost lost their eyes from shock when they learned that Hell, where Lucifer ruled, always used etiquette and had that as one of the laws. Spike couldn’t help but laugh at their reaction, as he found it funny. Only because his father was seen as evil, did not mean that he didn’t take away his etiquette. In fact, most demons and demonesses had to know the etiquette. It was their version of common knowledge, and that was something not even Luna was able to comprehend.

The main six had visited and seen Spike’s children and they thought that they were adorable. Spike smirked at that, and made sure that his children knew how to act like a true noble, and not a snobbish one. Twilight was still angry at him for never telling her about his demonic blood, but one glance from her friends told her that it was technically her own fault, and she never said anything again about it.

Rarity was sometimes a little frightened by Spike’s young demons, including his father: the King of Hell. She didn’t want to make herself look like a fool, and she certainly didn’t want to get on their bad side either. Although, she was comforted over the fact that Spike told her that they wouldn’t do anything to harm them, unless if they did something extremely bad. Rarity had nodded at that and vowed to herself that she wouldn’t say or do anything that might upset them in any sort of way, and she did not want to find out if she accidentally broke her promise. . .

Applejack was amazed by the demons’ strength and wondered if they could possibly help at her family's farm. Spike had told her that it was okay but that he would like one of the mothers to make sure that they didn’t do anything that She considered out of bounds. Applejack agreed to that, as she wasn’t really sure how to control demons unless you were one and she was simply a strong earth pony. . .

Rainbow Dash was amazed over the fact that they were super fast, and had challenged them on a race that ended with his children winning easily, and making Rainbow Dash home to several flies in her mouth because of how far her jaw dropped. They were super fast! They looked like it was normal, and they didn’t even seem to care over the fact that they are the fastest creatures in Equestria, maybe even the entirety of Equis!

Pinkie Pie absolutely adored Spike’s children and always played with them. She became quickly known to them as ‘auntie Pinkie’ and Spike couldn’t help but smile at that. He had hoped that they got an auntie figure that was willing to be there for them. Pinkie was teaching them through her letters how to prank someone easily, and he couldn’t help but laugh at the letters.

Fluttershy was strangely enough, not frightened or scared by them. In fact, she treated them as young babies which made Spike a little uncomfortable. Why that was, is because that demons don’t have an age as for when they are “of age” and he was afraid that his children might hurt Fluttershy for calling them ‘cute babies’ but luckily they didn’t do anything. When Spike mentioned it to her, she was about to cry and said:

“I didn’t mean to offend them! I didn’t know!” To which Spike gave her a hug and calmed her down. He didn’t mean to upset his friend. He just wanted her to know some of the common demon customs from Hell that could be handy from someone who isn’t a demon or half demon. Luckily Fluttershy understood that and was learning about demons, their diets, their beliefs, even their etiquette which Spike had told her that she didn’t need to learn that, but she was very insistent of it. Spike decided to just leave it be and continued to teach his children.

The last mare that made Spike dread was Twilight Sparkle. She had met his children, but she always looked so distant, and not in a good way. Spike thought that it might be because she was still trying to accept the fact that Spike had lost his virginity when he was seven, or that he had been a demon for all those years. But no, it looked like something else. It was like she didn’t trust either Lucifer, him, or his children. Lucifer could without a doubt understand as Lucifer had a very large reputation of being deceiving, and he could understand himself as he had lied since he was seven, but had tried to tell the truth but no pony or creature listened. Then, he had one question, that was: Why she didn’t trust his children. His children were innocent in all of that. How can they be responsible for something that they had no idea about? He had decided to confront the lavender alicorn one evening when the stars were high in the sky.

Twilight had been sitting on the balcony, and was looking up at the stars while she ignored everything else around her. Spike used his teleportation spell to get inside the bedroom of Twilight Sparkle, and walked towards the balcony. He practically slammed the glass door open, and looked at the lavender mare and didn’t seem fazed by what her former assistant had done.

“Twilight, we need to talk.” Spike said, as he stared at her and saw how she kind of raised a brow at him. She had been in no mood to talk, but here she was, waiting for her younger adoptive brother to talk, but when he didn’t do or say anything, she assumed that he was waiting for an answer. She gave one simple response.

“About what?” Spike frowned at that. It should be obvious to her, but she either was lying, or she really had no clue. The latter seemed more plausible as that has happened many times in the past. Spike could practically feel it in his veins as he looked at her while she was sitting crossed-legged and was drinking some wine. She was wearing a beautiful dark indigo dress that was one for a princess but looked more like a wedding dress.

“I think you and i know the answer to that. Why are you being more distant from family and friends?” Spike asked, making Twilight look at him with an odd look. It wasn’t one he recognised and he didn’t know what to make of it. He was completely and utterly confused. Twilight then sighed, as she had seen many different scenarios of this question come, and she didn’t know how to word herself in a way to make Spike understand.

“Spike, I am going to be honest with you here; I am not comfortable around your children as they creep me out.” Twilight said, making Spike angry as his eyes turned pitch black. Twilight froze as she saw Spike in his angry state. She knew that she shouldn’t have said anything, but what choice did she have? She knew that her former number one assistant wouldn’t leave until she received an answer.

“Twilight Sparkle, I wonder where your brain went. If you are ‘creeped out’ by them, then why did you call one of them ‘cute?’ because i remember it very well.” Spike said, making Twilight gulp in fear. She had never seen Spike this angry before. It was pretty scary, and she did not know how to get out of this horrible situation. Spike still looked at her, and was tempted to see if she could survive with a sword through her body that was made from demonic steel. As tempted as he was, he didn’t do it as he knew that his mother and aunt needed some sort of ruler and he knew that he couldn’t considering he had a lot of things to deal with. In other words. . . he would become bored very quick that he couldn’t torture a snobbish pony, or execute some creature that looked ugly in his opinion.

Twilight felt the air around them turn very cold. It was as if they were in December already and expected it to snow. Twilight looked at her former assistant and saw that his right claw had a form of knife that looked demonic as it had a language that looked nothing like Equestrian or any other sort of Equis language to begin with. The only thing that separated the two was a small table that was there for Te, but they knew very much that it didn’t matter as Spike could very much just throw it out of the balcony and have some poor pony get serious brain damage because of it. Spike looked at the knife in his right hand and smiled evilly at Twilight. He hadn’t been able to vent another form of frustration, and he really needed to.

“Spike, I simply said that because I didn't want to hurt their feelings!” Twilight said, as she started to panic as the demonic dragon to her left was taking very slow steps towards her. He let out a sadistic laugh. Was she that stupid? She couldn’t be, she is the smartest pony he knew. Then again, she seems too terrified to think straight. Spike did a few tricks with the knife like making it spin, and throwing it to his other hand. He then looked at Twilight and let out a sadistic glee. He placed the knife in his left hand, and he then pulled out the knife as if it was in a holster. His left hand started to bleed, and Spike chuckled darkly. He looked at his left hand and grinned at Twilight who didn’t know what to do or say. She wanted to scold him for hurting himself, and on the other hand, she didn't want to anger him more than he already was.

“Twilight, you can’t be that stupid. You would know that demons just don’t give a fuck about stuff like that. I will tell you this: yes, my children are special since they have the purest form of angelic blood. Yes, they have feelings, but they ignore them like all other demons, me included.” Spike said, in an educational tone.

Twilight was sweating and made sure that she was far enough away from Spike if he pounced. Spike simply snickered at her attempts. They were futile! Spike looked at Twilight and then looked at her with disgust clear on his face.

He allowed her to scold him, yell at him, and even slave him. Then, when he starts to think for himself it is almost as if it is illegal in her opinion. Spike didn’t know whether to laugh, or frown at her sheer stupidity. It was pretty clear that it should be somewhere between both. Spike looked at his left hand and licked the blood that was a mic between pure wine red like an angel and pure black like a demon. It showed Spike that he was truly a half angel half demon. He had never fully picked a side, but if he had to, he would pick the demons as he didn’t know his aunts and uncles that well even though they had tried numerous times to talk to him. Lucifer didn’t forbid his brothers and sisters from talking to Spike, but that didn’t mean that he had to like it either.

The closest relative Spike talked to was Death, and she was very kind. She was one of the few angels Lucifer exchanged words with. Not that it was many words, as he wanted nothing to do with his brothers and sisters in the first place. Death was always saddened by how Lucifer pushed her away as she cared about him. She was his sister, and he was pushing her away and not even sparing her glances. She always cried as she felt responsible for the portion of the way he is. She sometimes wondered if she should have joined his side during the rebellion. . . when Lucifer came for the one dinner where every angel has to come whether they liked it or not, she had been surprised when she had seen Spike. She thought at first that Lucifer had him as a bodyguard, but when Lucifer introduced him as his son, every angel had been shocked, while Faust and God simply said their ‘hellos’ in a friendly manner. She wasn’t surprised by that as they created literally everything and can live in the past present and future at the same time! She had hoped to get to know her nephew, but he seemed like he knew of the stories Lucifer had told him. Lucifer’s point of view, not the others point of view.

She had been barely able to talk to Lucifer, much less his son and she felt like it was a stab to the heart. During their dinner, Lucifer had glared at his creators and parents. She was a little surprised that he didn’t jump from the table and tried to slay them. Spike on the other hand used his etiquette that he had learnt from Lucifer and referred to everyone by their last name if they had one. The others were surprised by his sense of respect, but returned it nonetheless. She found him peculiar and interesting, but he did shoot glares at his grandparents and looked disgusted with them. She simply sighed as she had a feeling that he would follow her brother's footsteps and do everything in his power to act like a demon and do things that even she couldn’t handle. She hoped that she could get to know him better and learn about his life. Spike on the other hand, wanted nothing much to do with them except to do their jobs that they pretty much had to do to make sure that the cycle of life continued, unless if they wanted to bet who would win the third world war in the human world.

Later, Spike had opened up to Death, and started talking to her and they became very close and they started sending each other letters and hoped that each other wll. Spike liked that and continued with it, and his father didn’t object to it, as he didn’t really want his son to have bad blood with his brothers and sisters. That was something he had to deal with alone. Spike and Death became so close one time, he felt bad because he wanted to kiss his own aunt! It wasn’t that he cared about the incest bit, it was rather that she was a pure angel and didn’t want to corrupt her in that sense. He never told her about it, but he did have a sneaking suspicion that she knew. His grandparents had seemed rather bitter, specifically his grandmother, Faust who kept muttering about how she wanted grandchildren. Spike hoped that she meant that she wanted one of her sons to marry some human or whatever to have grandchildren that way, but he didn’t really want to find out either, and simply never told them even though he knew that they knew.

Spike was grinning at Twilight, and it was not a pleasant sight. She was terrified and she wished she never said anything about his children. She should have simply kept it to herself, and smiled at him. Although, lying to a prince that is descendent of King Lucifer isn’t exactly ideal either. . .

“Now princess Twilight Sparkle, you will answer for your crimes of what you said about my children.” Spike said, as he threw the knife in the air, as time slowed down. Literally. Twilight was frozen in place, and Spike was looking around him and sighed as he knew that one of his aunts or uncles did it and wouldn’t let go until he grabbed the knife again. Spike used his magic to call a forward an energy drink. The energy drink had a logo of a Basilisk with yellow eyes. One of the ingredients were Basilisk poison and it was delicious~

The poison made Spike feel well fed and the poison had a bit of a salty taste to it. Spike was getting hungry for Basilisk meat. He really needed to breed more of them in Hell while he travels there. Spike took the knife and was about to stab Twilight right in the heart when a gentle feminine hand stopped him. Spike at first, glared daggers at the intruder but smiled when he saw that it was Death. She was smiling a little bit and chuckled when he frowned at her.

“Death, you know i love you and all, but i am kind of in the middle of something here. Could we possibly talk later if we absolutely must?” Spike asked, as he tried to stab Twilight again, but was yanked away by Death and he flew into the stone wall that was behind them. She then gasped and rushed over to him. “Ouch, I don't remember that I made you violent. . .”

Death giggled, and helped Spike to his feet. She looked like any other human, as she had short hair that simply covered her head and airs, and she wore glasses. She was wearing some cloth like the other angels did, and it was covering good portions of her body. She wore nothing on her feet and she was not holding any sort of weapon. Spike eyeing her in a playful manner, and Death blushed.

“I must say, auntie. I’m surprised that Lucifer hasn’t fallen for you. You are beautiful.” Spike said, making Death blush harder. She was always one of the more shy angels while Lucifer was the one who boasted of his greatness. Those were the good times before the rebellion. . .

“I guess he just finds incest gross.” Death said, making Spike look at her as if she had finally lost it. Gross? Far from it! Lucifer always liked the incestuos demons as they were a lot more aggressive than the other demons. Spike simply chuckled a little, and it seemed like Death had understood that she was wrong.

“Far from it auntie, Lucifer loves incest and it really turns him on. I’m surprised that he doesn’t think with his dick when he sees you, considering you are big in all the right places.” Spike said, bluntly making Death blush and playfully glared at him. Spike simply chuckled and used his magic to pull out a knife. “Now, I will ask you one again in a kind way: why did you come here and ruin my fun?”

Death sighed as she knew it was an inevitable question. She had been expecting it for several seconds, and she knew that she had to give him an honest answer. She took a big breath and looked at Spike and wondered how her nephew would react. Spike had a tendency of. . . getting a little bit angry.

“I could not allow you to kill Twilight Sparkle as she is needed in this world. She is the element of magic, and she needs to protect all life in this world, and I simply couldn’t allow you to kill her. Mother and Father would be very unhappy with you if they heard that you had killed one of their many creations.” Death said, making Spike put on a facade that was surprisingly good, because Death looked nervous as if she didn’t know who he’d react to it.

“I see, so you would not allow me to kill that disgusting lavender pony.” Spike said, with hatred making Death look at him a little crossed eyed. She did not know where this sudden anger was coming from, and she did not want to know. Suddenly out of nowhere, Lucifer came flying onto the balcony and he glared at Death as if she was a disgusting piece of trash that needed to be taken care of.

“Death,” Lucifer spat out the word as if he didn’t know how to say it better. “I hope you have a very good excuse as to why you are here. You see the likes of you who support cowards-” Lucifer wasn’t able to finish his sentence, as Spike had somehow managed to kick without moving too much. Lucifer felt how his belly was aching from pain. He may have an eight pack, but pain is still a thing that he feels. Death just stared at Spike and Lucifer wide eyed. She knew now that her dear nephew was in trouble, but she was surprised when Lucifer started laughing, as if the whole ordeal was a funny thing. She had no idea how much her brother had changed, and she didn’t know if it was for the better or worse.

“Be nice Lucifer, auntie Death is here, and now is your chance to shag her.” Spike said, playfully as Death blushed furiously and Lucifer looked at Spike as if he had committed a federal crime. Spike started to crackle a heartless cackle and Death shivered while she was still blushing. She would be lying if she said that she didn’t feel frightened by her brother and nephew when they acted like real demons. Spike looked at Death and she shivered a little bit as his eyes had returned to their pitch black colour. She had managed to calm him down a little bit, and his eyes had returned to normal, but now they were pitch black again.

“So, Death, how are things up in Heaven?” Lucifer asked, and smacked himself for his stupidity. Death widened her eyes at that. Why would Lucifer ask that question? He hated everything to do with angels and Heaven! Unless. . . he was changing. The final day is getting closer and closer for each passing day and year, and Lucifer seems rather excited for that day. He had been burning himself a lot lately simply because he could.

“Well, Mother and Father have their dinner every Sunday that you never show up to even though they keep saying that you will one day. Our brothers and sisters want to get in touch with you, but. . . you don’t allow them to, so they stay out of your way.” Death said, making Lucifer sigh. He had no intention of talking to his brothers and sisters unless it is about Heaven or Hell. Although, he could give less damn about Heaven. Lucifer looked at his shy sister and gave a chuckle that sent her shivers down her spine. She may have the best touch with Lucifer, but that didn’t mean that she wasn’t afraid of him.

“I won’t be coming to those disgusting dinners. Mother and Father could disappear for all I care.” Lucifer said, as his eyes became pitch black. Death shivered, and before anything could happen, Spike threw Lucifer off the balcony making him fall. Death stared at Spike in shock and didn’t know what to say.

“I apologise about Lucifer, he keeps saying he is feeling a dark presence, but i can’t feel anything.” Spike said, as he gave Death an unexpected hug. She stiffened, but gave in and hugged her nephew. She truly cared for him and Lucifer, but it seemed like Lucifer didn’t want her to care for him. She always felt saddened by that.

“It’s okay dear nephew. I have to go now, but promise me that you won’t hurt Twilight Sparkle?” Death asked, making Spike grin at her in a sadistic way. He then nodded as his grin grew wider and wider for each passing second. “I also mean to not hurt her mentally.” That made Spike just stare at Death with a blank expression on his face. She giggled and hugged him quickly and kissed him, and she traveled upwards to Heaven.

Spike looked at Death fly away, as his father climbed up with several wounds on his body. He was grinning and looked like a kid that had gone down a fun slide. Time started again, and everything started to move again. Twilight Sparkle screamed at the top of her lungs, and the whole of Equestria heard the scream. Spike and Lucifer teleported and did so just in time before the royal guards stormed into princess Twilight Sparkle’s room and looked everywhere for the intruder.

“Where is the intruder?!” A royal guard shouted with purple armor. He had a gray coat and gray eyes. He looked menacing, but when Spike is angry, he is like a little foal. Twilight could only shake in fear on the balcony as she distinctively remembered a demonic knife flying towards her, and that it was thrown by her former assistant, Spike.
