WHAT!?

They opened the door and saw... nothing. They were staring into the pitch-black endless void, there were these black particles that were floating inside. Everyone was confused by what they saw, yet they wondered what these particles were though Peter was shocked to see these here, but composed himself and instantly closed the door with a loud, *Bang* before he turned to the others, shouting at the others.

"Run outside, NOW!"

He placed his hand upon both his daughters' shoulders before he spread his Qi to the others since they took too long before he and the others disappeared.

A moment later everyone appeared outside the house, they were confused but quickly turned to look at the house to try and figure out why Peter was so agitated. They waited for ten seconds and still nothing happened thus Elizabeth wanted to ask her father but he just placed his index finger on his lips to make sure that she remained silent, with absolute seriousness in his eyes, ones which no-one has seen before, not even Bruno - his best friend-, and not even Samantha - His wife for millions of years.

*Gulp*

They didn't understand what happened, however, seeing Peter's seriousness they understood that something serious was happening and that they just needed to wait and find out what happened. Everyone could only hope that Lucifer was safe and sound, yet... a few moments later a loud explosion occurred.

*BOOM!*

It awakened everyone from their thoughts as they simultaneously stared at the house or where it was supposed to be, yet they saw nothing there, everything was gone, years and years of history disappeared in a second.

The girls held their hands over their mouths and felt like crying, especially Samantha that did begin to cry as she thought of all the photos, memorabilia and memories they all had made here together, all gone.

Elizabeth, Peter, Rose and Bruno however wasn't as concerned as Samantha about all of those since they can make new memories and the old ones will still be with them in their hearts and minds, but instead, they worried more about Lucifer's safety.

For a few seconds, nothing happened and there was only dust that was flying everywhere covering their view of what was happening inside, even Peter and Bruno couldn't use their soul power to see through it as it wasn't normal dust, yet the only thing one could hear was the soft sobs of Samantha and almost hear the heartbeats of everyone as they waited in anticipation.

Suddenly, a powerful wind blew the dust away in different directions yet the dust didn't dissipate and was making its way towards the North as it began assembling itself.

Once again everyone was in a state of shock and disbelief, yet everyone including Samantha looked towards the house in anxiety. She did blame Lucifer a bit but she saw him as her son thus she was more worried about his safety.

When the dust dissipated and they looked at the centre of the ruins there they saw a bloody, wounded figure with multiple scary scars on his chest body excluding his face which was just dusty but he still had an indifferent grin on his face, his eyes were even more crimson than it ever was almost like it was glowing, his white hair which was neatly tied up was now dishevelled, but the most eye-catching thing was that he lost his right arm, or half of it, and all that remained was a stump which was covered in what looked like a shirt, yet one could still see the blood dripping from it.

*Gasp*

Everyone was shocked by the condition he was in and stood frozen in place as they stared at the figure that was staring into the sky and Elizabeth wanted to run towards him, however, Peter stuck out his arm and stopped herm which made her displeased but she waited for her father to do what he must, and Peter began scanning the area to ensure that there weren't any threats to them. Doing that for a moment and seeing that there was nothing and that they were safe he lifted his arm, allowing Elizabeth to rush towards Lucifer as she was bawling her eyes out.

She ran and ran forgetting that she had Qi or advanced abilities since her mind was so frazzled, but as she was approaching him she noticed that Lucifer didn't seem to respond to her, which confused her but she thought of something which almost made her cry once again. She tried her best to compose herself as she deactivated the skill she learned from her father when she was young, which is always activated and began running towards him while making sound and as she feared Lucifer did respond to the sound moreover he also turned his head towards her. Seeing her worst fear confirmed she was almost floored as she just stood there with tears streaming down her face.

"N- it- it- can't- be."

Elizabeth said while shaking her head yet when she was struggling Lucifer's calm voice echoed inside her ears, "Ellie, there is no need to cry over this small matter considering that I am still alive."

Elizabeth was shocked that Lucifer could remain calm even in this type of situation, though she had to agree with him. She looked at him a bit more closely and noticed that he even looked taller and more mature than previously, with an even more defined physique, which would normally make her blush, yet now she only asked one question, "Lucy, why do you look taller and more mature?"

Lucifer only smiled toward her, or which he believed to be her position, and put his index finger over his lips as he said with a wink, "Secret."

Which made Elizabeth pout a bit but she quickly composed herself considering the scene in front of her. As she was busy everyone proceeded towards him, yet like Elizabeth, everyone was confused that Lucifer didn't respond to their movements. Peter frowned seeing this and he took a closer look at Lucifer's eyes and was horrified. He stopped dead in his tracks from pure shock, and as he a man that rarely cries, he began bawling his eyes out while he disappeared from his position and in front of Lucifer, hugging him.

Lucifer was bewildered by the sudden hug yet he knew who it was from the loud sobbing in his ear, thus he hugged this father figure of his tightly and for a few seconds they stayed like that before Peter finally let go and asked in a choking voice, "Lu-Lucifer w-what hap-happened, w-w-why are yo-you blind, a-and ho-how did you g-get so m-much older?"

Everyone that was still surprised that Peter cried was even more bewildered about what they heard from Peter.

Lucifer smiled as he replied, "So you noticed, huh? As expected of you, master. There were a lot of things that happened, however, I will explain them to you when we get out of my room and go into the living room."

"..."

Everyone stayed quiet which confused Lucifer thus he asked everyone, without shifting his eyes away from Elizabeth's location, "What happened? Why is everyone so silent?"

Elizabeth was the first to speak up, "Well, this is what happened..."

She told him everything that occurred since he was inside his room until now, hearing what happened Lucifer felt disheartened since he just joined them and because of him their house exploded.

Even with his pride he never showed much of it in front of his 'family' thus he said apologetically towards them, "I apologize to everyone, especially you Samantha, I know that you must have a lot of family photos inside the house and now it may all be gone."

She was a tiny bit angry at Lucifer, but how can she nor forgive him when he came out of god knows where looking like that, especially since she sees him as her son, "It's alright Lucifer, I will try and save what I can furthermore I am just thankful that you are still with us."

She also came up and hugged him which was followed by the rest of them.

After a few seconds later Rose suddenly stated, "This is nice and all but shouldn't we treat Lucifer's wounds, otherwise he will die, and then we can try and figure out what happened to him. We can even go and stay at the beach house we have, right mom, dad?" Towards their daughter's question, Peter and Samantha immediately nodded their heads in agreement.

They could have a beach house because region 92 is on the bottom edge of the continent, although it was a couple of hours away from them but with Samantha or Peter's Qi they could arrive in a matter of seconds.

Thus they did as Rose said and took Lucifer towards the beach house, and they arrived in ten seconds. They took Lucifer to the couch in the living room, lay him down before feeding him a pill Bruno personally refined, which everyone in the immortal world would have killed for it since Bruno was known as the Alchemy God. They waited for a few minutes before Lucifer's wounds closed miraculously, the scars looked like he had it for years, thus he finally sat up causing everyone to gather around him to try and figure out how he was doing and what exactly happened.

Samantha asked concernedly, "Lucifer are you alright?" To which Lucifer nodded with a slight smile. Everyone exhaled in relief, but Peter suddenly asked, "Now Lucifer, can you tell us what happened to you, how you escaped, how you ended up blind, losing an arm, getting older, not being able to use your soul power to 'see' your surroundings and having multiple scars on your body, scars so deep they can't ever be completely cured but luckily it will be hidden under your clothes not ruining your face."

Peter said the last part to help ease the atmosphere which worked like a charm as everyone chuckled/giggled at his joke, yet he immediately asked 'seriously', "Lucifer, but seriously tell us why you don't have any facial hair?" Which got another bout of laughter from everyone and only after calming down did Lucifer start explaining what happened.
