Hi everyone and welcome to my new fic called, “The Greatest Surprise Party Hell has Ever Seen!!” as the newest addition to my Greatest in Hell AU. 

This is the fourth part of this series, so if you haven’t read the previous part I highly recommend you do as storylines and character arcs from the previous parts will continue on here. But if you choose not to its okay, as this part takes place twenty years later and a lot of things have changed and the first chapter will be mostly dedicated to filling in the gaps between when Part 3 ended and where we are now in the story. 

So we are twenty years in the future and Alastor and Lucifer are preparing a surprise birthday party for this kids Alicia and Lucius Morningstar! Will this party go smoothly? Have they finally broken their bad luck streak with parties being crashed? Lets find out, shall we…

*————————————————————————*

Today was another happy day in Hell! 

The Morningstar family was currently staying at the Hazbin Hotel for two weeks. Alicia and Lucius’ birthday was coming up, so Lucifer and Alastor were taking some time off from ruling so they could spend it with their family. And staying at the hotel helped to keep the twins distracted while him, Alastor, Charlie, and the others planned a surprise birthday party for them. 

Lucifer slowly opened his eyes and stared at the red ceiling above him. He rubbed his eyes with his hands and then looked over at a sleeping Alastor beside him, twenty years of being married and he still loved waking up with his husband next to him. 

Yep, twenty years had passed since Lucifer and Alastor had made the deal binding them together for all of eternity, and in one week’s time, their babies would be twenty years old too. And Many things had changed down in Hell in those twenty years. 

*————————————————————————*

Charlie had long since ended her reign as crown princess of Hell, as her father and Alastor took up rulership again. They took their jobs very seriously, and got to work on improving Hell for everyone. And even though Lucifer, Alastor, and the twins lived primarily at the Morningstar Manor, Charlie always kept their old towers at the Hotel tidy, in case they ever wanted to stay over. 

And yes, Vaggie and Charlie had gotten married fifth-teen years ago. Lucifer had helped Vaggie pick out the perfect ring for her to ask Chalrie to marry her, and of course Charlie had said yes. Their ceremony was beautiful, and Lucifer was more than happy to finally have Vaggie officially join the family. He got to walk Charlie down the aisle while ironically Alastor got to walk Vaggie down, with Alicia and Lucius as their ring bearers. She became Vaggie Morningstar, and binded her soul to Hell after their marriage. 

But one of the biggest changes, was that  Husk and Angel had moved out of the Hazbin Hotel. Husk wanted to open his own casino again, only this time he’d put a lot more emphasis on the bar, filing up the menu with several of his custom made cocktails, and the entertainment, which Angel was in charge of. Though they didn’t move very far…..because they built the bar only a couple dozen feet away from the Hotel. Adding a sister building to the little hill where the Hotel resides at the edge of Pentagram City. 

They lived primarily at the bar but would always come to have dinner at the hotel with everyone their friends. And Charlie always kept a spare room just for them on the same floor as all the main hotel residents lived, just in case. And Niffty insisted on being the cleaning lady for the maid for the casino as well. And of course, Niffty and Baxter had gotten closer over the years, and Baxter begrudgingly answered to begin Niffty’s boyfriend. 

Another great surprise was Emily’s engagement to Abel! After they decided to start dating after more years of mail correspondence, Abel decided that he wanted to be together with Emily full time. So he packed his bags and left Heaven in favor of the realm down below. That was around six years ago. 

And while it took a few months for Abel to get used to his new home, new family, and new job that Charlie gave him at the hotel. He learned to love his new home, and became a somewhat of an elder brother to Lucius and Alicia. And while he was sweating buckets throughout his entire conversation with Lucifer and Alastor when he asked for their blessing so he could propose to Emily, Lucifer was very accepting of him being the eight Morningstar. Even if the knowledge of him being Adam’s son still made him a bit uncomfortable. 

Emily became the head of the new Heaven embassy in Hell, where sinners could send letters to family members in Heaven that had been successfully tracked down, thanks to the help of St Peter and other Saints in Heaven. Lucifer and Alastor used their usual methods, completely tore apart what was left of the old embassy to built it up again in a brand new way. It wasn’t a golden reminder of impending extermination anymore, now it was a center of contention between the people of both realms, though the actual number of corespondents was small. 

Stolas was one of Lucifer’s advisors, he helped Lucifer settle disputes among the classes of Hell, and petty conflicts between members of the Goetia family. Even Octavia had a role in the king’s cabinet, she was in charge of carrying out Stolas’s old duties with his Grimoire. While Loona, Blitz, Millie, and Moxxie worked under Lucifer as a special decisions group. They would help settle disputes that required more aggressive negotiation tactics, and also the occasional mission on Earth even. 

Fizzarolli still worked at Lulu World, now in charge of all park operations and training new performers. While Carlos had retired from the park and became the official Royal portrait maker, and he would travel all across Hell to paint portraits of important events. 

As for the Hazbin Hotel…Charlie was thrilled that her new mission was proving to be successful. The hotel was almost at full capacity now! 

Most residents were new sinners who hadn’t been in Hell for very long. Chalrie and the gang would give them a crash course on living in Hell, and strongly advised everyone against selling their souls. But some residents were older sinners, who wanted to improve their lives. The ones who stood out the most was a group of siblings called Hatched, Fitch, Marx, and Malcom. 

And Charlie kept trying her best to spread her message to all sinners, to get everyone to collaborate to make their realm better. Even Alastor, did his best to keep the peace between the overlords.  

And as for Heaven? Lucifer had kept exchanging letters with Gabriel, Raphael, Uriel and Azrael. And he had even been in contact with Cassiel and Ramiel. But almost nothing from Michael, only a few letters a year. True to his twins’ word, he hadn’t shown his face in Hell in the past twenty years. And Lucifer wasn’t certain if he felt hurt of relieved by that. 

*————————————————————————*

“Good morning darling!” Alastor said when he opened his eyes and noticed that his husband was already awake. “Have you been up for long?” 

Lucifer looked down from the ceiling and rolled his body to the side to face his husband. “No” he said with a small smile. 

Alastor examined his husband’s features and immediately knew that something plagues his mind. He stretched out his hand and rubbed it against Lucifer’s cheek. “What’s bothering you dear?” 

Lucifer’s eyes went wide. Alastor’s ability to read him so easily never ceased to be impressive. He took in a deep breath, “I can’t believe the twins are turning twenty…” 

“Me neither…I never thought I’d be a parent, but getting to witness them grow makes me enjoy begin one” Alastor said sincerely.

Lucifer gave him a sad smile, “I know. But….watching them grow and do things together makes me…it-it makes me think of Michael” he whispered that last part. 

Usually whenever anyone brought up Michael, and Lilith, Alastor’s would feel irritated. He hated Lilith to the core, and hasn’t fully forgiven Michael for all the harm he had caused his family. He didn’t even care about all the shit Lilith put him through when she still owned him, but he would rip her apart for all the pain she caused Lucifer and the stunt she pulled at their baby shower if she managed to get out of Heaven’s prison. But right now he would keep calm and listen, “What about him?” 

Lucifer sighed, “I hope that Ally and Luci don’t turn out like us. I hate Michael but don’t at the same time. I miss him but don’t at the same time. I just hope that our kids are always friends, I don’t want them to end up like me and Michael.” 

Alastor grabbed onto Lucifer’s hand, “And they won’t, we’ve raised them to be better. They’ll never break apart.” 

“I hope so” Lucifer squeezes his hand. 

“And if they do Charlie will put them in a get along shirt until they agree to get along” and both of them burst out laughing. Lucifer loved it when Alastor made silly jokes like that, he was still the feared radio demon but he was also different from back when they had first started dating. 

“That’s so true” he wheezed, and they both got silent after they were done laughing. 

They were quietly enjoying their shared warmth on the bed until Lucifer spoke up, “Sooo how we feeling about the party tomorrow?” 

Alastor hummed, “Well we’ve had a good steak since the baby shower, no more surprise guests.” Which was true, the last twenty years worth of parties, weddings, and gathering had been crash free. 

“I’ve always sent out invitations to everyone in Heaven, your mom, Gabe, Ralph, Uri, Azrael, and the others all confirmed they’re coming” Lucifer said enthusiastically. Sometimes he almost found it hard to believe that he was actually looking forward to seeing everyone from above after centuries of hating each other. 

“And no word for Michael?” Alastor asked. 

“No..” Lucifer felt a little disappointed, sure Michael always sent a little gift and card but he never showed up himself. Lucifer wasn’t even sure if he knew what his niece and nephew looked like, but it was better than worrying that he’d come to take his kids away. Silence was better than fear he supposed. 

“If be decided to show up I don’t mind as long as he brings a gift this time and doesn’t destroy any cakes” Alastor said, which was true, he was tired of his cakes being destroyed without being enjoyed by their guests. 

The mention of cake make Lucifer nearly jump of the bed, “Oh and I’ve already made chocolate ducks for the cake, it’s gonna be perfect!” 

Alastor leaned up against the headboard, “Aren’t they old for ducks on their cake?” 

Lucifer threw a pillow at his husband’s face, “How dare you, no one is too old for ducks!” 

Alastor dodged the pillow easily, “I’m only teasing you dear.” 

“Good, or I’d divorce you” Lucifer threatened. 

Alastor rolled his eyes and began getting up from the bed, “You can’t divorce me.” 

Lucifer got up after him, “I’m the king I can do whatever I want.” 

Alastor smirked, “Fine, then make your own pancakes for breakfast.” 

Lucifer pouted and crossed his arms, “Fine, I’ll stay with you.” He was good at making pancakes himself, but Alastor was an absolute master in the kitchen. 

“Good choice dear” Alastor hummed and walked towards their closet to change clothes. 

“Are the kids still sleeping?” Lucifer asked as he followed along.

Alastor summoned his shadow from behind him, “Go check on Ally and Luci for us would you.” The shadow nodded and went into the kid’s room to check on them. When the shadow returned it whispered into Alastor’s ear. 

“They are still in bed sleeping” he declared. 

They both quickly got changed, and once they were done Lucifer dragged Alastor towards the door, “Great, let’s head down then!” 

“Why the hurry” Alastor nearly fell to the trough trying to keep up with Lucifer’s pace. 

Lucifer stopped in his tracks to explain, “Well we still have to figure things out with the girls. We need to bring in the decorations and stuff for the party today, and set it up, and find a way to keep them distracted so they don’t find out yet.”  

Alastor nodded as he listened and then ruffled Lucifer’s hair, “I’m sure you’ll figure it out dear” he said and walked past his husband. 

“You’re not helping?” Lucifer asked in pure confusion, how could he say that he won’t help set up his own children’s party? 

Alastor looked at Lucifer like he was the crazy one, “I have a meeting with the overlords today, or did you forget dear?” 

Lucifer blinked for a few times, “Right? I…..okay I totally forgot, can’t you skip it?” 

“Can you skip a meeting with the deadly sins?”

“Well I did miss like seven years of meetings soo..”

“I’m serious Lucifer” Alastor gave him a stern look, “As Prince Consort I have to stay updated on all that the overlords are doing.” 

Lucifer crossed his arms, “Like you already didn’t do that as the plain old radio demon.” 

Alastor scoffed, “I’m still the radio demon, just have a crown and a ring now.” 

“And what else?” Lucifer pressed on. 

“And the power to make them all obey me unless they want my husband to get involved” Alastor stated proudly.

Lucifer tilted his head, “You use me as a scary dog privilege?”

Alastor laughed, “Of course not, I’m the scary dog if anything.” 

Lucifer punched his arm, but not with any strength to actually hurt him. “You asshole, you are so lucky I love you or you’d be halfway to sloth ring by now.” 

Alastor chuckled and took Lucifer’s left hand onto his and brought it up to his lips. He kissed Lucifer’s hand right above where his wedding ring sat. “Yes I do consider myself lucky in that regard” he made the poor angel blush, his entire face turning gold. 

“O-Okay, let’s go then” Lucifer stammered as they both began to make their way to the kitchen, hands still intertwined. “I guess a few things don’t change” Lucifer thought as he smiled brightly at his husband. 

Time to prepare the greatest surprise party in all of Hell!

Chapter Text

When Alastor had sent his shadow to see if the twins were still asleep, the shadow simply peaked thought he wall to see if the two of them were still in their beds. But who said that they were aware they were being watched. 

After the shadow left, a pair of yellow dear ears perked up from underneath the covers. “Are they gone yet?” Came a hushed female voice. 

Then a fluffy koala jumped onto the bed enthusiastically and nodded his head. And so, the female removed the covers. 

Alicia Morningstar stretched out her hand to pet the top of the koala’s head, “Thank you Static.” 

When the twins were toddlers Lucifer finally brought the goat and koala plushies he had made to live. The koala bonded well to Alicia who named him Static, while the goat was named Glitz by Lucius. 

Alicia got up from her bed, she picked up a pillow and threw it at Lucius’ bed. “You may get up now Lucius.” 

The boy shook under his covers, “I know, but I’m still resting” came his static voice. Which unlike Alastor’s, Lucius’ voice was not a filter but his actual voice. 

Alicia rolled her eyes, “You can rest later, we have things to do.” 

Lucius stirred but reluctantly started getting up from his bed too, “Such as?” 

Alicia walked over to the closet they were sharing for the week, “Such as find a way to avoid being in the hotel today..” 

Lucius rubbed his eyes and walked over to the close as well, “And why can’t we stay here?” 

Alicia took a gown from one of the hangers in the closet into her hands. “Because they’re planning our surprise party” she said nonchalantly. 

Lucius made a surprised face and placed the back of his hand over his forehead. “Gasp! What surprise party are you referring to oh dear sister of mine?” He said in fake surprise. 

Alicia rolled her eyes playfully, “You know, the one they definitely aren’t throwing for our twentieth birthday.” 

Even though they were twenty, physically the twins were still children sized, resembling what a human ten year old would look like. Due to their angelic blood they aged much slower than humans and even other hell born species. 

Lucius sighed as he grabbed a a shirt and pair of pants from the closet. “Yeah they really need to get better at keeping secrets.” 

His sister shrugged, “Well father hasn’t given any hints, it’s mostly dad and Charlie who need to control their excitement…”

Since Lucifer was already accustomed to being referred to as dad by Charlie, Vaggie and Emily, he kept that title when it came to the twins. While Alastor was referred to as papa when they were still learning to speak, and that evolved into father. 

Alicia took all her clothing items in the bathroom to change, while Lucius stayed in their shared room to change his own clothes. “So what do you think the party will be like?” Lucius asked her thought the door. 

“I’m not sure, probably the same as all the previous ones.” 

Lucius snorted, “So the deadly sins will be there and argue, father will make us a cake, and those angels from Heaven are coming.” 

Alicia took off her night gown and put her dress attire on, “You mean our uncles and aunts.” 

Lucius gritted his teeth, “I don’t trust those angels.” 

Alicia rolled her eyes while looking into the bathroom mirror, “Lucius you are an angel.” 

“That’s different!” His voice got louder, “I don’t trust them, they turned on dad so easily and then suddenly want to be nice to him?” 

Lucifer had been very secretive with Chalrie about his life in Heaven and about those who had turned their backs to him, but he admitted that it had backfired. So he took a different approach with the twins, when he thought they were old enough to understand he openly spoke with them about everything that had happened in the past and that they had overcame their differences and were okay now. 

But what Lucifer hadn’t realized was that this approach was also flawed. It had left a bad taste in the twin’s mouths, especially Lucius. Both tried to keep the angels at arms length, at least the ones who had hurt their family the most. 

Alicia opened her mouth but quickly closed it while fixing up her hair with a brush. “Well I admit that is quite strange…”

Lucius grabbed a an overcoat to match his clothes, “What if they turn on us again?” 

“Then we kill them, make it swift” Alicia replied instantly, and as she finished getting ready she came out of the bathroom to fetch her shoes. 

Lucius finished buttoning up his coat and turned to look out their bedroom window, “Do you think dad’s twins gonna show his face here?” 

“Michael? I doubt it.”

“He tried to take Chalrie away from dad, what if he tries to take us away too?” Lucius had both hands clenched into fists to both his sides. 

Alicia’s eyes widened at his question, her eyes turning to radio dials, a trait she had inherited from Alastor. “No one is taking us away from our family, we’ll kill them before they can lay a single hand on us.” 

Lucius turned to look into his sister’s crimson eyes, “Still, I don’t trust those angels, just the ones in our family.” He walked past her and went over to his night stand. He opens the first drawer to reveal a dagger that he had always kept stashed away. 

Alicia raised an eyebrow, “Are you carrying your angelic dagger with you?” 

“It never hurts to be prepared” Lucius stuffed the dagger into a pocket in his trousers that was kept hidden by his over coat. 

Alicia’s permanent smile became gentle, “Lucius no one is taking us away and if they try…we can take them on. We’re the Morningstar twins.” 

“Morningstars aligned” he mirrored her smile. But soon it tuned into a frown, “You know dad fears that we’ll end up like him and his twin.”  

Alicia hummed, “I’m aware.”  

“D-Do you think that could happen?” Lucius whispered quietly. 

The girl shook her head, “It seems very unlikely, you wouldn’t last a day without me.”

Lucius glared, “Says who?” 

“I say so of course.” 

“Right.”

“Jokes aside I don’t think I could exist without you being there too, we are two halves right. An angelic demon needs her right hand demonic angel” she spoke more sincerely this time, which led to Lucius pulling her into a hug. 

“So, idea on what we can do today?” Alicia prompted after they pulled apart from the hug. 

“We could help father with a broadcast!” He wasn’t a bug fan of radio, but he did enjoy the part of ripping souls apart during the broadcast. 

“Don’t you think he’ll be helping with the party planning” she said like it was obvious. 

“We could go visit one of the sins” be counter offered. “It’s been a while since we’ve been in the wrath ring, I’d love to go riding a hellpig again.” 

“Or we could visit Gluttony?” 

“You think we’re old enough to attend one of aunt Bee’s parties?” Lucius teased. 

Alicia chuckled, “Ha ha, fuck no!” 

“Worth a shot, but I’m sure she wouldn’t tell on us.” 

“And I’m sure we’d be grounded for a decade at the very least” Alicia gave him a side eye. 

Lucius gave her a devilish smirk, “Only if we get caught.” He turned back to the window that gave him a grand view over the city below. “I wish dad would let us explore pentagram city, there’s so much we have seen of this place.” 

Thoughout the years, Lucifer had taken the twins to all the rings except for most of the Pride ring. He had taken them to meet the other deadly sins in their natural environments, they had met with all kinds of Hellborn, and even members of the Goetia family. 

But Lucifer didn’t like having them wander around the Pride ring, he liked sinners now but many of them still defied him and his family.

“You know he doesn’t trust us to wander around the pride ring” Alicia said sadly. 

Lucius sighed in exasperation, “I know, I just don’t get why he doesn’t trust us.” Neither one of them did. They trailed so hard for years to fully tame their powers, so why didn’t Lucifer trust them to take care of themselves. 

Alicia pinched the bridge of her nose, “What we need is…” 

But before she could finish her statement Lucius put his hand over her mouth, “Wait!” But Alicia didn’t listen, “Ahh was that really necessary?” Alicia had bit down on his hand. 

“Yes it was” she licked her lips. 

The reason Lucius had shushed her was because he had heard Lucifer coming. Their dad was coming to wake them up for breakfast.

A few seconds later the door to their room cracked open to reveal Lucifer holding his ‘duck off’ coffee mug. “Good morning ducklings!” He said cheerfully. 

“Morning dad!” The twins replied in unison. 

Then the koala and goat started flying towards Lucifer to say hello too. “And hello to you Static…” Lucifer pet the koala. “Ohh and how’s a good boy Glitz? You are yes you are!” He scratched the goat’s head. 

“Is someone making breakfast? I can smell the food from here” Alicia asked her dad. 

“You guys hungry? Al’s making some pancakes.” 

“Of course” Lucius said gleefully. 

“How could we say no to father’s cooking” Alicia agreed. She then used her magic to summon her ver own cane, “To the kitchen then” she snapped her fingers and immediately the three of them were pulled down into a pool of shadow. 

*————————————————————————*

Lucifer, Lucius, and Alicia were deposited right into the hotel lobby. The twins had come out of the shadows perfectly fine but Lucifer was completely caught off guard and newly dropped his mug on the floor, “Woah, you’re even worse than Alastor.” 

Alicia smirked proudly, “I take it as a compliment.” 

Lucifer took a sip from his coffee, “Alicia, you guys gotta warn me before you do that” he scolded her. 

Lucius smiled devilish, “Yeah Alicia, you wanna give dad a heart attack” he teased her. 

“He’s immortal and….” She paused mid sentence as a question came to her mind. She turned to her dad, “Wait do you have a heart?” 

Lucifer spit his coffee and started coughing from hearing that question. After he stopped caught and regained his composure he cleared his throat, “Well technically I..”

He was cut off by Chalrie rushing down the stairs excitedly, “Good morning everyone!” she happily sang. “I just had the greatest idea ever, I was thinking we should add a pool to the hotel!” 

“Hi Chalrie” Alicia waved her older sister good morning.  

Her brother tilted his head in confusion, “And where would we even place a pool in here?” 

Charlie fidgeted with her fingers as her mind was rushing with thoughts of her new plans, “Well we can always expand.” 

Everyone was then greeted by the sight of Vaggie appearing at the top of the stairs. She was out of breath for having to chase down her wife, “Hey babe…pant…please slow…pant… down okay. It’s hard to keep up with you like this.” By ‘like this’ she meant the fact that she was currently four months pregnant. 

Chalrie and Vaggie had come to Lucifer about the fact that they wanted to try and have a child of their own. Lucifer had been more than happy to help them, but he had told them it would be a complicated process. It had taken a few attempts but on the third time the results were positive, and now Vaggie was carrying a baby boy. 

Lucifer walked over the stairs to help Vaggie down. He held one of Vaggie’s hands in his while she held her stomach with the other. Lucifer smiled sympathetically at his daughter in law, “Tell me about it, how are you Vaggie.” 

Vaggie nodded slightly, “I’m doing alright Padre, just really tired.” 

“You just gotta endure it for a few more months” he tried to sound supportive, but oh boy did he know the feeling of just wanting to speed up those nine months of waiting. 

“Gee thanks” Vaggie greeted her teeth, but she knew Lucifer was just trying to be supportive. 

“Morning Vaggie” the twins waved to her as well.  

“Hi guys, did she tell you about the pool idea?” 

“Yes we have been informed” Alicia spoke for both of them. 

“And what do you think?” Vaggie asked. 

They weren’t able to answer as suddenly Alastor burst thought the doors of the kitchen. “Good morning everyone” he was still wearing a cooking apron. 

“Morning father” the twins said.

“Morning Al” Charlie said.

He started uniting the back of his cooking apron, “I should be getting ready to head out, I’ve made breakfast arrangements for you all I hope you find it satisfactory.”

“You aren’t staying for breakfast?” Chalrie sounded disappointed, she loved having the whole family together for meals.

He placed a hand on his daughter’s shoulder, “No dear, I’m afraid I have a little engagement to attend.”

“Where are you going?” Alicia’s interest had been peaked. 

“I have a meeting with the overlords of the Pride ring” he proudly announced. He wasn’t thrilled about the meeting itself, but at least he would get to have tea with Rosie in Cannibal Town afterwards.

“How fun” Vaggie rolled her eyes. 

“May we go with you?” Alicia asked excitedly, making all heads in the room turn to her. 

“What?”

“Well Lucius and I wanted to go out today, we’ve been inside the hotel for the past two days. We want to see more of the Pride ring” she calmly explained. 

Lucifer’s eyes widened in alarm, “No, you guys aren’t old enough to wander the Pride ring alone.”

“But dad we’re powerful, we can defend ourselves…”

Lucifer sighed in frustration, “Look, I’m okay with you two going out in the other rings okay. They’re more chill than Pride, okay a lot of sinners have angelic weapons too. What if you get kidnapped?” 

“That only happened once” Alicia muttered under his breath. It had happened when they were still toddlers when they had been under Lucifer’s supervision. 

“And she bit of the guy’s arm before he caught us” Lucius stood up for his sister. 

“Still, I think you’re still too young.”

“But da….” 

Their protest was cut short by Alastor snaking his arms around his husband’s waist, “Lucifer please, it’s alright dear they can come with me.” 

Lucifer looked back to his husband, “But…” 

Alastor placed his head on the Angel’s shoulder, “They’ll be with me the whole time, besides they’ve already met plenty who are in attendance.” He was truly trying to help his kids out. Though he was sympathetic to Lucifer’s feelings as he had dealt with Lucifer’s breakdowns and therapy sessions. And it was a lie, the twins did already know Rosie, Carmilla, and Zestial.

“What about the others?” Lucifer asked, still feeling skeptical. 

“I’m sure the overlords have enough brain cells to not touch Alastor’s kids” Husk, who was sitting on the couch with Angelina Dust said out loud. 

“Even Vox?” 

Angel Dust fell over the edge of the couch from cackling at that, “Ha ha ha.You’re kidding right? That fucker saw Alastor go head to head with an archangel, you think he wants to fight em?” And he kept laughing. 

Lucifer sighed and looked down to his kids’ hopeful eyes, then he turned around and glared at his husband. “Alright fine, but you have to keep your eyes on them at all times, if they come back with even a scratch I’m blaming you.”

Alastor rolled his eyes, “Don’t be dramatic Lucifer.” 

Lucifer didn’t listen and simply turned to his children, “And you two, you really wanna go to an overlord meeting?” 

“Well uhhh” Lucius stammered, but his sister elbowed him. 

“Of course, they need to know who they’re dealing with.” 

“Yep that’s smiles’ kid for sure!” Angel Dust spoke up again. 

 “Okay, you guys can go.” 

“Thanks dad” the twins hugged him happily. 

Lucifer hugged them back, “But eat your pancakes first.” 

“Okay…” and the my both took off into the kitchen to eat their breakfast. 

“I suppose I’ll be a little late to my meeting” Alastor thought out loud.

Lucifer patted down his clothes and took in a deep breath, “Charlie, Vaggie, come with me please…” and he began to walk over to an empty corner opposite to the dinning room. 

*————————————————————————*

As soon as the dinning room shut behind them, Lucius started quietly yelling at his sister. “Why did you do that? I don’t wanna to sit in a boring meeting.”

Alicia grabbed onto his shoulders, “Don’t you see, this, this is the opening we needed!” 

He gave her a puzzled look, “I’m not following here.”

She released him from her grip and started moving towards the dinning table, “We needed a way to get dad to trust us and tell me dear brother….” She sat down on her chair, with a devilish smile and glint in her eyes, “What is the best way to get Lucifer Morningstar to agree to something?” 

“Get rubber ducks involved?” His voice was hesitant and unsure. 

Alicia opened her mouth before closing it again. He wasn’t exactly wrong but, “Okay the second way.” 

“Get Charlie involved?” 

Her ears flattened on her head, “I’m getting impatient…”

Lucius snapped his fingers as he finally got it. “Get Alastor Morningstar to agree with you so he gets Lucifer to agree.” 

“Bingo!”  

Lucius wore a victorious expression as he sat down next to his sister. “So, we go to the meeting with father and…”

“We show the overlords that we aren’t to be messed with, we know they are all stubborn and proud. There’s a high chance they’ll challenge us…”

The boy shrugged, “So we accept, beat them of course and then?” 

Alicia clasped her hands together, “Father will be impressed and then he’ll relay all that happened to dad. Even better if one or two of the overlords record everything, we’ll have physical evidence that we can handle ourselves against confrontations.” 

Lucius hit his fist on top of the table, “Alicia Morningstar you are a genius!”

The girl let out a laugh, “I already knew that but thank you.” 

This made her brother cross his arms and roll his eyes. “Wow, Princess of Pride over here.” 

“I am actually…” 

And so they began to eat their pancakes as their minds kept plotting. Maybe today would prove to be quite entertaining…

*————————————————————————*

Back in the hallway, Lucifer was trying to keep his cool as he scolded his husband. “Alastor are you sure that they’re ready for an overlord meeting? Don’t fights break out between them all the time?” He pointed an accusing finger onto Alastor’s chest. 

Alastor moved Lucifer’s finger off of him, “Like the deadly sins don’t fight each other and you let them watch.” 

Lucifer gritted his teeth, “That’s different! The sins see them as niece and nephew, they fight each other but would never lay a finger on my kids.” 

Vaggie pinched the bridge of her nose, she didn’t have the energy to watch them fighting right now. “I agree with Lucifer on this, like what about the Vees, I bet Vox would try to mess with them.” 

Lucifer smiled brightly at his daughter in law, “See! Thank you Vaggie.” He could always count of Vaggie to be on his side. 

Charlie sighed at the predicament, “Uhh I agree with Al though….They already know Rosie, Carmilla, and Zestial too. Oh and Husk thought he isn’t really an overlord anymore. Plus Alastor will be there so what’s the worse that can happen?” 

“We’ve been training them since they were toddlers, they can handle this, they’re ready” Alastor repeated his earlier statements. 

Lucifer looked down in defeat, “Maybe you’re right. I just don’t want to see them get hurt when I’m not there to defend them.” He wouldn’t be able to live with himself if something happened to his kids. 

Alastor’s eyes softened as he took hold of his husband’s hand. “None of us want to see them get hurt. I’ll take care of them, I promise.”

Lucifer glared at him, “You better!” But his voice held no real anger. 

So it was really happening, the Morningstar twins would be attending an overlord meeting. They would be with their father, they’d be fine right? What’s the worse that could happen?
