that troublesome angel had started to destroy his demons.
The first few no doubt deserved it; they've been told the angel was to be left alone, but once Crowley had been forced back to the heels of his master, they couldn't help rub the angels face in it.
it was the last thing they did.
for a short time afterwards, demons up there just doing there jobs would find themselves decorperated at the hands of the angel, sent back to hell with one short simple message - let Crowley go.
the problem was, they all knew that it couldn't happen. not like that.
finally a newly dicorperated demon cowed before his a dark lord. the message had been changed slightly. Let Crowley go, or I will come get him.
"you know i can't do that..." Lucifer murmured, though no one was really certain who he was talking to. the demon was dismmised, leaving Lucifer with a few of his chosen council. the few that had been to busy to witness Crowley's execution suggested to let him come, one angel vs all of hell, on hell's own home turf? easy people to get rid of
"He's immune to hellfire," (notbeez) cautioned, " we could overtake him eventually, but our losses...."
"Too many, especially if he brings holy water. Heavens never tried to flood us on the sole grounds that they don't want us to burn them to the ground. But, he knows the fire wont work on him, and he has no alliance with heaven. There isn't a single thing keeping him from drowning us all, and waltzing out with Crowley after we're gone."
"can he powerful enough for that kind of blessing?" Lucifer asked, claws pressing against Crowley's temple. the demon refused to make a sound.
"He's killing our demons in some way. I wouldn't bet he couldn't"
They debated on the best course of action for some time after that, until Crowley slumped closing his eyes against tears that threatened, and finally voiced what they all needed to hear.
"you have to let me go." Lucifer growled at his daring to speak up at all, and yanked his head back with a fist full of hair. Crowley forced himself to stay calm, collected, resolved. "Either let me walk out of here, or destroy me outright. But.. if you keep me here, He's going to obliterate everyone. He's.. he's not going to stop. there's no reason left for him to do so."
