Angel held on to him, watching everyone with a fearful gaze.

"It's odd."
"What is?" Riad asked, studying him, eyes moving to his as he took in the blue.

"Puppets, the lot of you. So easy to control, all it takes are loved ones. Now Zlataan. I have things we need to discuss, things that concern your daughter's freedom."
"What are you doing? That wasn't part of the deal. The deal was you get me for a bride and you gave his daughter back. Cut and dry."
"Hush. Shall we talk?"
Zlo's jaw clenched, his hold tightening on Angel. "What do you want?" His eyes flicked to Dozorce, who glared at him, though a moment later was gone in a puff of smoke.

"What is?"
"Having a tail. The new senses. Everything." he murmurs, watching him, looks down at himself, small frown "What all do the changes entitle?"

"What do you want?"
"Simple." He murmurs, jostling Shade when she tries to break free, eyes bright red "You and your daughter can go free, live out the rest of your lives in peace. That is, if you kill her and crush her soul." releasing Shade, he watches as she falls to the ground, coughing

"Having a tail. The new senses. Everything. What all do the changes entitle?"
Riad shrugged, looking at his hands. "Tail, heightened senses, uhm." He laughed lightly. "Teleporting in a puff of smoke. Some of us gain gifts, too. Mine is fire and lightning. Elias's is illusion, Dad's is time manipulation, Zlo has an array of things."

"What," Zlo growled, hold tightening on his daughter. "You're backing out of your own damned deal?"

"Tail, heightened senses, uhm. Teleporting in a puff of smoke. Some of us gain gifts, too. Mine is fire and lightning. Elias's is illusion, Dad's is time manipulation, Zlo has an array of things."
Smiling at Riad's laugh, he leans in and kisses his cheek gently, soft sigh "I wonder if I'll get a gift too." he murmurs, shrugging "Not that it matters."
Words: --- Addressed: --- Mentioned: ---
"What. You're backing out of your own damned deal?"
"About her being my wife?" Lucifer murmurs, pulling Shade close to him, smirks "Of course, she would make a lovely wife. Shes young, beautiful, deadly. But." he tilts his head "I need payment from you for your daughter's freedom as well, and what better way to test your loyalties. If you wish to live a peaceful life with the girl, kill the succubus, crush her soul."
Hands clutching at Lucifer's weakly as her breaths shorten, she scrambles, trying to raise herself up to breath, face shadowing at his words before she laughs darkly, eyes hidden "Do it, Zlo."

"Do it, Zlo."
His mouth worked a moment, eyes disbelieving a moment. "Test my loyalties? I never held any loyalty towards you." He spat on the ground by Lucifer's feet. "No, the only one here that I would rather rip to shreds is you." He reached behind him and manifested his gun as though he had it tucked within the waist of his jeans, aimed a the devil, and pulled the trigger without hesitation.

Riad smiled at him. "You may, you--" he jumped and his head whipped to the door at the sound of a gunshot. "The hell?" He lept to his feet.

"Test my loyalties? I never held any loyalty towards you."
"I'm not talking about towards me. I was asking who you loved more, your daughter, or the succubus. Family, or women." Lucifer murmurs with a smirk, eyes narrowing at his next statement and actions
"No, the only one here that I would rather rip to shreds is you."
Feet trying to find purchase, Shade gasps when Lucifer suddenly moves her in front of him, jerks, eyes slowly roll down, shirt starting to spot with blood near heart, face pales, crumples when Lucifer drops her abruptly
Grunting, he drops the succubus, teeth gritting, eyes slits as he looks over at him, light seeming to get sucked out of the room "You're making a big mistake."
Words: WORDS Addressed WORDS Mentioned: WORDS
"You may, you--"
The hell?"
"Do you think--" he starts to murmur, flinching at the loud bang, springs to his feet, tail lashing, anxious as he runs out

Zlo's expression or gun didn't waver. "No. I'm doing what I should have done years ago." Hearing Riad, Zlo didn't look his way as he turned toward him, gaze and gun trained on Lucifer. "Rain."
Riad followed Carter out and seeing Zlo, then hearing him say rain, his gaze wavered. He looked at Shade, then at Zlo again, understanding. He looked at Carter. "Run." In a blur, he moved and grabbed the little girl, then Shade, disappearing in a puff of smoke as Zlo shot again at Lucifer.

Hitting the ground face first, Shade gasps weakly, blood pooling out on to the floor beneath her, face paling, losing consciousness quickly "No. I'm doing what I should have done years ago. Rain." "Oh? And what is that?" Lucifer murmurs, eyes narrowed "Kill me?" his face twists into a dark smile "Go ahead, try. If you succeed, you'll wind up-" he starts, dodging to the side when shots go off "You'll end up killing Belladonna as well."Freezing at the scene, Carter's eyes widen at the sight of Shade lying on the ground, snaps back to reality at the sound of Riad's voice "Run." Watching in disbelief as Riad poofs into thin air, he opens his mouth and shuts it slowly, panic crossing his face "I don't know how to do that yet!"Words: WORDS Addressed WORDS Mentioned: WORDS

Riad took Angel and Shade outside to the very edge of the cemetery, trying to put pressure on her wound as Dozorce appeared by his side. "This deal that went down, it's going to kill her, isn't it? Doesn't Zlo know that?" His voice wavered as he looked around for Carter, forgetting to grab him.
"He knows," Dozorce murmured, looking at Shade. "He knows what he's doing."

"Oh? And what is that? Kill me? Go ahead, try. If you succeed, you'll wind up- You'll end up killing Belladonna as well."
"I don't know how to do that yet!"
Zlo growled lowly. To Carter, "Think of who you want to get to or where you want to go. Picture it, then just go to it, don't think, just let yourself become a little cloud and go." Again, he fired off multiple shots, expression fixed.

Eyes widening, Carter nods slowly, disappearing
Growling in anger, Lucifer's eyes flick to Zlo's, charges at him, wings unfurling, jerking when one bullet catches him across the ribs in a graze

"This deal that went down, it's going to kill her, isn't it? Doesn't Zlo know that?"
"He knows. He knows what he's doing."
Breaths shallow, Shade wheezes in and out, jerking when a cut suddenly appears on her ribs, mark glowing, coughs up blood, face paling as her hand snakes out and grabs Riad's wrist, trying to stop him
Appearing next to Riad as he speaks, Carter groans softly, wind knocked out of him, stumbles

Riad started, eyes moving to her, then the wound on her ribs. "She's not going to make it through this, Dad. There's no way."
"There is a way," he sat by Shade's head, sitting like someone who meditated would, watching her closely. "Zlo just needs to hurry up."

Zlo unloaded the clip, tossing the gun to the side then charged himself, eyes flashing as his wings unfurl, driving his fist into his jaw.

Carter watches as Riad and his father watch over the woman, eyes wavering as he watches her bleed out
"She's not going to make it through this, Dad. There's no way."
"There is a way. Zlo just needs to hurry up."
"Do... Don't" Shade grits out, mouth filling with blood as she starts to choke on it, jerking every few seconds as Zlo lands a blow on Lucifer. Face deathly pale, she turns onto her side, trying to clear her mouth, heart starting to fail her. Back facing Riad, her teeth gnash together, right wing unfurling to flap slowly, tip sharpening, flung forward and curls, embedding itself into her heart, trying to get Zlo an opening
Words: --- Addressed: --- Mentioned: ---
Growling when a fist slams into his face, Lucifer fights with Zlo, grunting each time he gets shot or grazed. Eyes flashing, he starts towards him again before falling to a knee when his chest starts bleeding heavily where Shade stabbed her own heart, groans, wide open

"Do... Don't"
"Shade, what are you--" Starting and eyes widening, Riad gaped. "What the-- what--"
Dozorce didn't move. "Gave him an opening. Wait."
"But dad--"
"Wait." His tone was sterner.
Words: WORDS Addressed WORDS Mentioned: WORDS
Zlo's jaw ticked as he stepped up to Lucifer, looking down on him. "You forgot that this worked both ways," he murmured, reaching down grabbing his throat, lifting him to his feet again. "You sorry son of a bitch." He growled, reached in and taking what was left of Lucifer's heart, pulling it out. "She will live, but if I can't save her from death, at least she has a better chance of finding peace without you."

Growling when lifted, Lucifer coughs, jerking when his heart is yanked out, laughs, light fading from his gaze, eyes turning black, red ball forming in his chest, power leaving him, bloody smile "But you won't." he murmurs, ball flying into Zlo's chest as he dies, exhaling

Jerking in shock, Carter's eyes widen, steps back away from them, unable to watch anymore
"Shade, what are you-- What the-- what--"
"Gave him an opening. Wait."
"But dad--"
"Wait."
Yanking her wing free, Shade trembles a moment, small laugh, coughing up blood "Seems you lost, didn't you, Luci-" she starts to get out before jerking when her heart suddenly stops without warning, eyes frozen, turning glassy
