As Chloe fell to the ground she thought back to 3 days ago when all of this began. 3 days ago when she and Lucifer had started this case. She wanted to regret what was happening but knew that even if she could go back in time, she wouldn't. She wouldn't risk Lucifer's life. She would still make the same decisions that lead her to this place… this pain.

As she landed on the polished floor of Lucifer's penthouse she turned her head to see Lucifer screaming.

Everything looked to be in slow motion, Lucifer breaking the hold Amenadiel had on him to sprint towards her. He dropped to his knees and slid the last few feet to her and slowly carefully reached down to her.

"Chloe." He gently breathed out, "What have you done?" He whispered brokenly. "What have you done?" He gently pulled her up into his arms. Her blood slowly seeping out across his arms and legs to make a reflecting pool on the polished marble.

He leaned down to gently press a kiss to her forehead, pulling her tighter into his arms.

"This is not the way it's supposed to be. You are supposed to be ok. You are supposed to walk away from me." He cried into her hair, "Why... Why would you do that? Why would you Stand in front of me?"

She knew he wasn't looking for an answer, she knew he was trying to understand and grasp that he couldn't change what was happening.

So she took the last of her energy to reach up and touch his cheek. The blood on her fingers making a harsh line on his pale skin. He looked down at her, "I am saving you." She whispered.

He reached up and grasped her hand in his, his voice breaking, "Why." He whispered down to her, "Why?"

She smiled softly at him, "Because, you save the people you love." She felt her arm grow heavy, it now only stayed on his cheek because he held it there.

"Chloe, please... Don't leave me... please." He begged her.

"I will miss you my devil, my Lucifer... Promise you will protect Trixie…... Promise me." She gasped out.

"I can't" he declared, "I have to come for you. I can't leave you down there alone." He said looking into her eyes.

"No I need you ... To keep... Trixie safe." She said beginning to choke on her blood. "Swear it... Please"

"Chloe, don't ask me this, please... Let me come with you." He said a tear running down his face. The first tear that had slipped down his face since he fell so long ago.

"Promise Lucifer...swear it." She demanded with the last of her strength. "Promise."

She watched as he struggled until finally relenting, "I swear it." With his words she felt a calm take over.

"You... The only... One ... I trust." She whispered.

Lucifer watched as the light faded from her eyes and felt the room become darker, his world become darker...and his soul become darker. And he screamed.

It was a scream that went for miles, that terrified every single person who heard it. It was like a blanket of darkness was laid upon Los Angeles. The people left in the room stood in disbelief and horror. Lucifer's pain was like an infection; they could feel it like a burn on the skin… on the soul. They literally felt his pain and his grief and it was crippling.

The Devil lost the only thing that held his light, now there would be hell on earth.
