Reunion and Punishment

When Lucifer finally stopped in the middle of the forest, Percy immediately stood up and dusted himself off. He then looked at Lucifer and glared and said, "Couldn't you have done that gently?"

Lucifer rolled his eyes and made two chairs and a table and sat down on one. He then said, "Well I wouldn't be me if I was gentle would I?" Percy sighed at him and looked at the other chair and sat down and said, "So, what are we going to talk about?"

Lucifer crossed his legs, looked at him dead in the eyes, and said, "I want to discuss your torture." Percy looked shocked at him and nervously stuttered, "Wait, I thought you said you were going to train me? What are you talking about torture?"

Lucifer raised an eyebrow and said, "Well, training feels like torture so I didn't want to try and sugarcoat it so there. I'm going to torture you when you get back from what's going to happen in a few days."

Percy looked confused at this and said, "What do you mean by 'what's going to happen in a few days?' Do you know anything that's going to happen?" Lucifer smirked at him and said, "Of course I know something. If I didn't then I wouldn't have mentioned it would I?"

Percy sighed at him and said, "Then why can't you just train me during these few days before the 'thing' happens?" Lucifer looked at him mysteriously and said, "Well we don't want you tired during the 'thing' right? Don't want you to end up dead in a ditch or something."

Percy looked scared at what he heard and said, "Can't you tell me anything that's going to happen?" Lucifer looked at him seriously and said, "If I told you what's going to happen then it won't happen. And I really want it to happen hehe."

Percy then looked at him with wide eyes and said, "Did anyone ever tell you that you're a bastard?" Lucifer smirked at him and said, "Many have but either they're in Hell or gone." Percy looked confused and said, "What do you mean by gone?"

Lucifer's eyes glowed blood-red and menacingly said, "It means that they were literally gone. No body left, no Hell, no Heaven, and definitely no soul. But it seems that you're the first one to still be alive after saying that. So let me change that..."

Percy looked at Lucifer in fright and slowly stood up and ran away. Seeing Percy run away from him, Lucifer looked at his fleeing back and chuckled in amusement. When Percy was finally out of his sight, Lucifer suddenly felt a familiar presence enter the forest.

He then coldly glared at the direction of the presence and saw Hestia nervously came over to his direction. Seeing her walk up to him, Lucifer just glared at her and let her sit on Percy's chair. His eyes then glowed blood-red with patterns in it and coldly said, "What in the Bloody Hell are you doing here?"

Hestia then flinched at his words and nervously said, "I just wanted to talk to you, Lucy. I want to clear things up between us." Lucifer scowled at her and coldly said, "What is there to clear things up? I don't need your pathetic reasons, Hestia," He then stood up and turned to leave until she grabbed his hand.

Looking at her arm that was holding his, Lucifer looked back at Hestia and angrily said, "Let go." Hestia hastily removed her hand away from him and said, "I just want to talk with you Lucy, please. Just give me a few minutes, please."

Looking at her pitiful face, Lucifer just scowled and went back to his seat and looked at her dead in the eyes and said, "Talk." Hestia then fidgeted around and nervously looked at Lucifer and said, "Lucy, I just wanted to tell you that what you saw isn't what you think it was."

Lucifer looked 'surprised' at what she said and sarcastically said, "Oh? So you mean to tell me that when you and Helios were making out on our bed without any clothes on wasn't what I think it was? Or the fact that I heard you tell him that he was SOOOOO much better than me? Do tell, how is that not what I think it was?"

Hestia flinched at what he said and looked at him with tears in her eyes and sobbed while saying, "Lucy, I was just so down at that time with you not taking me, even when we were married and when you poured all of your attention on Hera while leaving me on the side. I was just so lonely and I wanted relief! Helios was there to comfort me and tried to help me with my pent up frustration!"

Now Lucifer looked at her in genuine shock. He then slowly clapped his hands and snarkily said, "So it was my fault now!? Wow, Hestia! When I thought you couldn't get any lower than that! You fucking knew Hera and I was having little Zoe!! I had to fucking pour all my attention to her due to her being motherfucking pregnant!!" While he was shouting this, the flames of Hell could be seen dancing behind Lucifer while his glowing blood-red eyes looked like it was going to vaporize her.

Hestia flinched hearing him shout at her and lowered her head. Seeing that she was too embarrassed to meet his gaze, Lucifer used his telekinesis to make her look at him and said, "You know for being the Goddess of Family, you're not doing it any justice. You cheated on me because I cared for our once happy family? That's just.....wow! I can't believe that I left you unpunished all these years."

Hestia looked at him in shock and said, "Punish?" Lucifer smiled devilishly at her and said, "Of course!! You didn't think that you were going to get out of this unscathed did you?" Hestia started to feel the fear creep in her heart and wanted to run away, but the chairs suddenly grabbed hold of her and she couldn't get out of it even with her fire.

She just watched as Lucifer slowly walked towards her with an evil look on his face and couldn't help but cry in fear. Seeing her cry, Lucifer smirked at her and said, "Awwww. Is the little wittle goddess crying?"

When Lucifer finally arrived in front of her, he then willed his chair to teleport beside him and sat on it and thought, 'Now what is a good punishment for this little slut?' He then started to concoct many plans in his head and couldn't quite find the right punishment for her.

He then tried to remember all of his powers and what he could use to punish Hestia. He then had a great idea that can affect Hestia as a person! He then smiled devilishly and proceeded to manipulate Hestia's soul and took away her kindness, her lovingness, her warmth as a person, her gentleness, and her supportiveness towards her family.

After doing all that, he looked at the new Hestia and gave out a contented smile. Hestia now had a cold demeanor, icy stare, and scowl on her face. Lucifer maniacally laughed and thought, 'How would the Olympians react now that Hestia is like this?'

He then walked over to her and poked her cheeks and saw her glare at him and smiled. Seeing him smile, Hestia scoffed at him and coldly said, "What are you smiling like an idiot for?" Lucifer raised an eyebrow at her and said, "Oh? Who do you think you are to talk to me like that? With such puny power and you dare to talk to me like that?" He then glared at her and that made her flinch in fear.

Hestia then gained a bit of courage and scoffed at him. She then said, "Unhand me, you brute! I would like to go back to Olympus now!" Lucifer then thought about her words and smiled devilishly and thought, 'I wonder.... Are they going to meet the new and improved Hestia this soon or not?'

He then set her free and watched as teleported away in her True Form. He looked at the direction she was going and saw that she was really going to Olympus and smirked. He then teleported above Olympus and waited for Hestia to arrive and the other gods to see her change.

After a few seconds, Hestia finally arrived and Lucifer was getting kind of excited about what's going to happen next. When Hestia entered the throne room, the gods who were present were; Zeus, Hera, Apollo, Hermes, Hephaestus, Athena, Poseidon, and Demeter looked at her in confusion as her usual warm and loving self was gone.

When they looked at her closer, they saw that Hestia now had a cold demeanor present on herself and that made them panic and puzzled. They were scared that Hestia was mad at them and was confused about why she was acting like that.

When Hestia noticed their stares, she glared at them and snapped, "What are you all looking at!?" They then looked away as they were quite terrified of her glare but Zeus stupidly asked, "Hestia, what happened? Why are you angry? Did something happen to you?"

Hestia scowled at him and said, "Lucifer and I talked." The gods looked at her in shock with Hera more so than the others. Hera then walked over to her and said, "Sister, what happened? Why are you acting like this?"

Hestia's glare faded but her eyes still held their iciness. She then coldly looked at her and said, "Lucifer said that this was my punishment. That this is what I get for cheating on him for such a petty reason."

Hera covered her mouth in shock while the other gods just widened their eyes in surprise. After a few seconds, Zeus burst out in anger with lightning surrounding him, "That bastard did that to you!? This is unacceptable!!"

Athena looked at Hestia with a calculating gaze, "Then, please enlighten us what your reason to cheat on him, Hestia."

Hestia glared at her and icily said, "I was jealous, okay!? He left a few weeks after we married because Hera was pregnant!! I wanted to release all my pent up frustration with someone and Lucifer wasn't there to take my virginity!! And when I was finally going to get rid of it, he shows up!"

Most of the gods were now looking at Hestia in shock and understanding, while Hera looked at Hestia with a betrayed look. Zeus looked at Hestia like she was another person and whispered, "No, this can't be. She couldn't have done that," he then glared at Hestia and thundered, "Hestia couldn't have done that so stop lying, you imposter!! Show yourself! Who are you really!?"

Before Hestia could even answer, Poseidon glare at Zeus and said, "Are you in denial Zeus!? You just heard it from her very mouth and you say that she is an imposter?! Just sense her presence! Her energy! No one can copy that!! What she is saying is true!! Even if it sounds unbelievable," the last sentence though was uttered in a whisper.

Zeus seemed like he wasn't listening to Poseidon as he kept muttering things about that 'It wasn't real', 'She's an imposter', 'Big Sister Hestia can't do such a thing', and the iconic 'I don't believe you.'

Seeing that Zeus was still in denial, Hera went over to Demeter and cried on her shoulder. While all this was happening, the other gods in the room just looked at them in shock as they couldn't believe the kind and loving Hestia could do that.

Hestia then turned to leave the throne room when Athena stopped her, "What did he do to you?" Hestia looked over her shoulder and looked at Athena with such seriousness in her eyes that the Goddess of Wisdom knew that her next words were true, "He took all the positive emotions in me. All the warmness and kindness you were used to? It's all gone now," and then walked away.

The gods looked at each other while Hermes had a dumbfounded look on his face, "He can do that?" Poseidon looked at him and said in a solemn tone, "He said that he was stronger than ever yesterday. It must mean his powers got added or all his older powers got a power-up. And I think it's a mix of the two."

Apollo looked at Hephaestus in shock and said, "I don't think Artemis is going to like what happened to Aunt Hestia." Hephaestus shook his head in weariness and said, "I think so too. Things are going to get ugly if you don't stop that hot-headed sister of yours, Apollo."

Zeus looked at Hephaestus in shock and screamed, "I won't let that Devil harm any of my baby girls! Even if I die fighting him!" Athena looked at him in gratefulness but still said in irritation, "I thank you for that father but I am not stupid enough to anger such a being."

Seeing that the fun was already over and no bloodshed happened, Lucifer just let out a sigh of disappointment and teleported back to his room in the Big House where Death was awaiting him.

When he arrived, he saw that Death was already sleeping on the bed with no clothes on and happily removed the covers and climbed in. He then closed his eyes and promptly fell asleep after a couple of seconds.
