As Samael fell, his army fell with him. They all like shooting stars burned as they fell through the Planes towards the Pit of Darkness.
God with a mere gesture after Adam's banishing of Samael banished the rebel angels.
"Aaaaaahhh!" Samael's howl of agony continued to echo, reaching every corner of Creation.
"Father please! Mother! Michael! Gabriel! Please! Anyone I'm burning! I'm begging you make it stop! Aaaaahh!" He continued to howl, the pain worse than anything he's ever felt before.
His very skin melting and healing constantly because of his immortality. He couldn't even try to fly and catch his fall for his wings were useless, the wounds caused by the Spear of Destiny not healing fast enough for them to even matter.
Though that did not stop him from trying, causing more agony as the jagged things, featherless bones sticking out, trying to beat making sickening sounds birthing more agony.
Flames from burning and his own bursting from every seam as he tried in any way to catch his fall.
As the Light Bringer finally fell through the Cosmos into the Pit, his Light and Will continuing to spill from his being encompassed every corner of the infinite landscape, burning away the darkness, lighting up the Pit for the first time, changing it.
From a cold empty space into an inferno.
And as he fell further his army fell behind him, though only a mere echoe of it, for most did not survive the fall and burned up between the Planes.
Samael's agony became even greater as he landed, the earth surrounding him alongside where he fell turning into a lake of fire in which he continued to burn. He desperately attempted to swim out of it to no avail for what seemed like centuries.
He reached out with his hand through the lake for the first time, attempting to reach towards anything to get out, but was once more dragged within, as If the lake itself was alive and unwilling to let him escape.
Until finally, "Finally found you," Someone- what seemed to be a woman's voice said as she grabbed his hand that was raised out of the lake and threw him out of it on to the warm earth, rolling until he finally caught himself.
"Who are you!?" Samael tried to yell, but with his thoat burned all that came about was a sickening gurgle, as his eyes were still blinded and his other senses overwhelmed.
"I- maze- her- ai- yo- damn- behi- fath-" Samael couldn't understand what she was saying, all he knew was that it sounded like a woman.
Was it one of his sisters that survived the fall? He did not know, but at the moment, he didn't care, all he felt was relief at finally having escaped that agonizing torture.
Though as the woman- he assumed it was a woman actually, the voice sounded like it, but he couldn't be sure. One could after all shape-shift, many of his brethren could and he did not know much about the Pit- attempted to grab him, he howled in pain as his wounds were fresh and swung his arm, swatting her away towards a nearby mountain.
He scrambled on the ground trying to stand up but fell back on his knees, making him curse, which again come out as a revolting sound- less than before but still for the most part- making Samael nauseous and disgusted by his own state.
"Dam- you are- pain!" He heard, the woman seemingly having returned, yelling in what seemed to be frustration from the sound of it.
Her words registering better and as his eyes finally healed for the most part, he himself focusing a lot of his efforts on healing it and his throat since his escape, finally looked at her,
"L- Lilith," He called out, his voice hoarse and desperate, it finally having returned.
He tried to get closer to her, but once more failed, unable to walk, "Don't," She told him.
"Is- Is it you my love?" Samael questioned her.
"No," She shook her head, "I am Mazikeen of the Lilim, Lilith's first child, her oldest daughter." The woman- Mazikeen finally identified herself.
"Mazikeen?" Samael questioned for a moment confused until it came back to him- in the show Lilith and Mazikeen were the near spitting image of each other.
"You- You are my daughter," Samael stated earning a nod from her.
"Where is your mother? Is she okay?" Samael asked, his voice still hoarse, but now better, more like before and his sight having improved enough that he now could see her soul as well.
It was bright, beautiful, worthy to be the soul of a child of the Light Bringer and the First Woman.
"She is fine, waiting for you, still pregnant, which is annoying, has her complaining every nine months, something about your damn seed and you having proven something- it's confusing- is what she says every time she complains.
She's been awaiting you with excitement since you fell. Has been for centuries. It took me a while to find you and get you out." Mazikeen explained.
"Millennia..." Samael muttered to himself, it seemed that it indeed was the case, even before him having fallen that Hell seemed to be move faster. Everything's movement increased and so in the same time span a clock would also move faster in Hell than in Heaven or on earth.
The same time, but what was experienced was decades of events while only a single second had passed on earth. Thankfully it seems the speed wasn't that significant compared to Heaven, for in Heaven he hadn't seen her in centuries then.
"Take-" Samael began with a cough, "Take me to your mother," Samael commanded.
"I was planning to, that is until you slammed me into a mountain," Mazikeen said with an eye roll, but did as told as she picked him up once more, making him lean on her, Samael enduring the pain, not wishing to hit who he now knew to be his daughter once more.
As she then unfurled her wings, white with stripes of red in it, Samael seeing it was breathtaken. 'They're beautiful. She's beautiful, my daughter... The daughter whose life I apparently missed Millennia of. Who had to live in this evil place,' Samael thought to himself, gritting his teeth, clenching his fist, the physical pain a welcome distraction compared to the guilt he felt.
"Ready?" She questioned, receiving a nod from her father she with a beat of her wings flew, flew to reunite the bond that caused it all, the relationship that tore the Heavens asunder to keep itself together...

(Author note: Hello everyone! Hope you enjoyed the chapter! I know it is shorter compared to the last one, but I believe that fall deserves its own chapter and because I'm kind of busy.
Do please review, this fic has apparently no reviews and having any would very much help.
So yeah, hope you enjoyed and well, see you all later,
Bye!)
'It's her...' Samael murmers to himself as he sees her from above, still very distant but with his archangel sight able to see her within a palace seated on a throne.
But that is not the only thing he sees. He sees an entire city, full of creatures, some very beautiful, with angelic wings, their bodies slightly scarred, while some deformed, scarred, with many arms, faces, eyes, legs and heads.
As Samael sees them he nearly cries, he forces himself not to express his sorrow through his soul and body, but it is simply impossible. Anyone with the knowledge of the soul and body would be able to see it, he has to hope no one here does for all these creatures, they're his children.
His children harmed, twisted, disfigured by the harshness of this realm, it made his blood boil with rage.
"Hey, calm down, I don't know what you're so angry about, but none of us here wants to burn to death because you can't control yourself.
Last time you fell into this place and emotional you changed the whole realm into an inferno, many of my siblings perished because of it, not that I care much about them, but It would make mother sad." Mazikeen stated as she saw his eyes brighten with hellfire dancing within them.
At this Samael felt even more guilty, and forced himself to calm down.
They landed at the Balcony of the Palace, Mazikeen, let him go, and started to walk inside but Samael didn't, he stayed put as he saw his reflection upon the mirror within the room horrified at what he saw.
"What is wrong father, we have arrived." Mazikeen told him, confusion towards his state evident from her expression.
"I... I do not know if she would desire to see me." Samael tells her as he comes out of his shock.
"What nonsense are you speaking? Did I not tell you that mother has been waiting for you for near on a millenia?" Mazikeen questioned rhetorically.
"You have daughter, but she has been waiting for the angel Samael, and I am no longer that person anymore... I am something... Different." The angel- no, the thing that now is born from the death of the angel explained as he continued to gaze upon the monsterous thing he saw in the mirror.
He knew from the show it was horrific, he knew that he'd look like this when he regained himself after getting out of the lake of fire, but nothing could have prepared him from the true sight of it.
What was on screen could never be compared to the reality that was in front of him, the horror of it, invoking an absolute primal revulsion from within his being like nothing else could.
"That is-" Mazikeen began, but before she could answer the door slammed open to the room which's balcony they landed on and she stepped through, "I have missed you, my love." Lilith stated with a gentle smile, full of relief, looking as if she just ran towards there.
Her happiness was very much expressed upon her face, but it compared not to the echos from her soul, for they were akin to a song of love and the brightening of it, brighter than any star in the cosmos, blinding at the sight of him.
"Lilith... My love," Samael stated as he took a step to approach her but then hesitated.
"What's wrong?" She questioned as she approached him.
"I am not the angel you have been waiting for all these days... I have failed you." He told her unable to look at her, only looking back towards the mirror, at his horrific visage.
"Your scars do... Do you truly believe because of them I would abandon you? Do you think that little of me?" She questioned saddened.
"No! Of course not!" Samael exclaimed, finally looking her in the eyes.
"Then what?" She questions as she put her hand on his cheek, making him lean his head to it, seeking its comforting cool.
"Because of me you ended up here. Do you truly not resent me? Now that I have as well failed to rescue you? My rebellion ending in failure? My armies routed?
I have brought a wake of destruction wherever I have gone. I have slaughtered my siblings in cold blood, used their very love against them-" He said as be remembered Michael's broken and betrayed look at using their bond against him.
He didn't even feel it anymore, it broke as he burned in the lake. It for a while made the burning pain obsolete compared to it. He didn't blame Michael, he deserved it.
"My father was right to name me Samael, for I am truly a poison to anything I touch. Even you, even- even our children." He finished brokenly.
"Oh Sam... I do not blame you for any of that, for I knew what I was getting into when I gave myself over to the love I felt for you. You must not forget, I have Free Will Samael, I chose to be with you.
I chose to follow the love I felt within my heart towards you and have not regretted it a day since.
And I care not for whatever you are, be it angel, monster, or whatever else, to me you will always be my beloved Samael, my husband." She explained as she leaned her head towards him and wrapped her arms around his neck bringing him into a kiss,
causing Mazikeen to me a disgusted noise and look away, but if one truly looked they would be able to see the ghost of a smile on her face.
As their kiss broke, a giant smile was on Samael's face and his scars began to heal at a rapid pace.
"It is good that you are healing my son, for I have much work for you that yet needs to be done." Someone suddenly said from within the room and as they all with wide eyes, fully alert and wary turned their gaze towards the voice, they saw a man shaped being of light looking at them.
"Father..." Samael exclaimed in shock.
"It is good to see you my Light Bringer, we have much to discuss." God stated.
