What it's like for Archangel Lucifer and his broken family. As a child, Lucifer was a good child; he loved God, his father and his creator. But God soon stopped caring once he created other angels, and soon humanity this upset Lucifer. He knew he wasn’t important to him anymore, but that would never stop his love towards God. He loved God, God was his creator, the man he wanted to be known by. The days grew colder. Once God completely stopped noticing his angel children, his children became his soldiers. He used to destroy humanity, he didn't even talk to them anymore. He sent Michael to tell everyone to do his favorite child, the one that will be God's special little soldier.
The former archangel Lucifer betrayed God by loving humanity; he wanted to own them, protect them and show them who's king. Though God found out which made God furious, and he would make his son pay for his sins, what he said made the other angels terrified, “Though whoever lies in my name shall choke on their own tongue”. This didn't affect Lucifer since he never knew his father would do what he did to him. God dropped his mighty hand down as he created a special cage for his son; this cage would be deep underground in the fiery depths. God looked at his son, “you shall guard the depths and decide who belongs there, and I shall never want you in my sights again”.
Before Lucifer could say anything, he felt a burning sensation on his back, so he tilted his head to check since the pain was growing, he saw what he couldn’t believe his father was burning his wing, plucking every feather he wanted. The pain was unbearable. What was worse is his brothers watched this in fear. Lucifer whimpered and cried out to everyone for them to help him, but none of them did a thing they were frozen in fear. “Please! Father, forgive me, don’t take my wings!” Lucifer begged, but God stared at him, and with the snap of his fingers Lucifer felt his purity being sucked away, and he vanished from heaven. He fell, Lucifer felt like it was in slow motion, but he knew he was closer to the ground. The biggest surprise hit him; he didn’t feel an impact; instead he saw that he was going into a dark fiery hole, which worried him more than anything. The former archangel hit a cold ground, and to his surprise, he didn’t recognize his surroundings. All he knew was that it was burning hot, and he was behind bars alone with no one around his father locked him away.
The other angels stared at the mark of a fallen angel and was branded into the ground. The youngest angel stared emotionless due to his father raising him to be a soldier of God. But the younger angel was protected by a different archangel, this one was named Gabriel; he was the most normal here. The one that feared for his family all he wanted was then to be a normal family. He picked the younger angel up and took him to the garden. Back with Lucifer, he was trying to get out. He screamed till his throat was raw, he scratched till his nails bleed, but they healed right away since he still wasn’t human. He was still, and Archangel had just fallen. Lucifer sipped down to his knees and prayed, “Father, please forgive me I-I... I’ll do better, I promise please free me.” His voice quivered as tears threatened to leave his eyes.
God heard, but he didn’t care, but it’s not actually the full reason why he won’t bring the archangel back. God needed someone to watch his new creation punish all creatures, but the cage was his little way to make sure Lucifer never sees the heavenly light again. God would tell the other Lucifer was the monster and the one that needed to be put down, and no one under any circumstances will free this devil.
The years were faster down below, so Lucifer was slowly losing his sanity. He spent his time talking to himself and picking at his skin till it was bleeding. Lucifer was breaking down into something would never expect he's becoming the devil he was told to be. Lucifer began to hate himself, lost control, planning to kill humanity and his father. As Lucifer stared into the nothingness pits, he used all the evil and energy he had left to create the first demon. He created this demon, he used the little purity he had left and the anger he had and made this demon. As she slowly formed, he smirked, “I shall call you Lilitha... You are the key to free me, my dear”, the small demon stared at Lucifer. She was still a child, he had someone to watch to take care of. Lucifer had her outside his cage for her own safety, he gripped the bars and watched her reach her little hand to his cage. “Stop! Lilitha, no. I want you to stay out of this cage...now my child, I want you to obey my wishes and train to be strong, and when you are older, you will fill this place with others...and be the key to free me...then when I’m free...the world will be ours...”
As the years passed Lilith grew somewhat but when she escaped the underground, her vessel was a child. She scared the vessel's family, but she was doing this for her master, the man, she followed the man who created her for one purpose. And that was to free him from his cage. As she got stronger, she became a big target from the Winchester the dumb Winchesters. The Winchesters are trying to stop her plan. They don’t understand they never will. She needed Lucifer; she wanted her master to get revenge on his family.
When Lucifer got Liltha's messages in his head, he grinned, he knew she would free him, but one thing he's worried about is his head has been leaving him every day, and he knows his first demon would die in these processes. The sad part is he doesn't care anymore. He was so far gone he didn't know what's wrong or right. No one knows what he went through. He bashed his head on the bars and whined to be free, and that was long ago when he first was put in the cage he didn't feel pain anymore. He never really did before, just now he's numb and empty like a little piece of sanity he had left died. Lucifer stood up and looked up grinning. He knew God would love to see him, obviously why wouldn’t he be happy, not like he put him in the cage because of bad behavior.
