30 Days of Luke Oneshots based off songs in his playlist I made

If you want Day 7, here it is! And this is the link to the playlist!

Day 8: Compass

Originally, I was going to write a Genshin Impact au with Luke as Paimon and Beel as the traveller, and of course Belphie would be the Traveller’s sibling. But, well, you see- first of all, I don’t play Genshin. I know the basic plots though! Second, I’ve lost all motivations in writing a fluffy story. I really wanted to write that Genshin au but it just makes me mad because Genshin keeps crashing on my phone and PC so if any of you all write a Genshin au pls tag me I’d read it

Warnings: Angst, Torturing and Murder (although not graphic. You think I can write graphic scenes? Well you’re wrong), Major Character(?) Death (spoilers: it isn’t the Obey Me cast), No Happy Ending but comfort will be there (A little though, so don’t count on it too much since it’s not for Luke)

“We’re going to be fine, we definitely are!”

“Simeon, no offense but we’re going to die here.”

“Be a little more positive, Luke!”

“Oh. Ahem. YAYYYY! We’re going to die! I’m so excited! Michael’s gonna be so proud!”

(VYFHDJBSDE IM SORRY I DON’T HAVE IDEAS HAVE THIS THE ACTUAL ONESHOT IS GOING TO BE BELOW THIS)

“I’ve got to go, Athena. I’ll visit tomorrow! And I promise I’ll bring more sweets,” Luke said as he got up from beside the... well, we wouldn’t quite know how to call it. It looked terrifying but it apparently had a golden heart, towards Luke anyways.

Luke found Athena when he was running from the school. He felt as if he wanted to cry any moment, but he couldn’t just do that around Simeon, Solomon and the demons! It was always the demons’ fault! To avoid being seen, Luke ran to somewhere he didn’t even knew. At some point, he realized he was lost and did the most sensible thing he could think of, panic.

As he was looking around, something - a creature, saw him and was pretty defensive as they hissed at him. Luke froze and stared at the creature before holding out his hand hesitantly. He did this to every creature he met so that he could gain their trust. The creature - who was Athena, sniffed his hand.

“I’m not going to hurt you! I promise,” Luke said softly. Athena sniffed his hand once more before bumping her nose(?) on Luke’s palm. Luke gasped softly and giggled, feeling that she was very fluffy.

“See, I’m not bad! And I’m pretty sure YOU aren’t bad too!” he gushed. Athena seemed to understand him - like all others he communicated with and chuffed out, seemingly happy.

“Maybe, since you’re here, I can stay longer. You won’t mind, right?” Luke questioned. Athena paused for a moment before she shook her head. Although she looked very - intimidating, Luke felt very safe around her. Safer than he was in a school of demons anyways.

So that’s how it ended up to him visiting her everyday. He occasionally brought her some sweets since he found out she liked them. Solomon noticed and liked to tease him about the fact that he finally made himself a friend. Luke would’ve been mad, but he couldn’t argue about the fact Athena IS his friend!

“Athena? Hello?” Luke called out. He was getting worried since by now Athena would’ve came out already. Maybe she was asleep? It was rare but there was once when Luke searched and searched and found that Athena was just passed out. The next day, Athena gave him a flower as an apology and Luke gladly accepted it, but told her that it was alright.

He was getting pretty tired from walking around so he assumed it was the same case, so he followed the trail he made (so that he wouldn’t get lost anymore) and walked back. He got a text from Simeon a while ago when he was walking in the forest that they were all going to be at the Demon Prince’s castle for some reason. So, he went there of course.

As he went in, he heard a very familiar (toofamiliar,whywasathenanotthereandwhyistheroarsosimilartohers) and it sounded like it was in pain. Luke was curious, but for some reason his heartbeat sped up. A lot. He was even sweating from anxiety (whydidhefeelanxious) and he felt like he was going to throw up. He heard another pained sound, which sounded very close to a whine and he immediately ran towards the noise.

Luke opened the doors and he froze, whether because he was shocked or terrified he could not tell. But later, if you had to ask him, he would’ve said despair.

“Luke! What are you doing here? Aren’t you usually visiting you’re...friend right now?” Simeon asked as he walked towards Luke, covering the sight of Athena being tortured (andmurdered,theyweremurderingher).

“Wha- what are you doing?” Luke whispered in horror.

“Oh! We’ve been trying to find this monster (monstermonstermonster...yourethemonsternow) for a long time now. It’s extremely dangerous and it has harmed a few hundred demons for a while,” one of the demon brothers chided, but Luke didn’t pay attention to them. He watched, frozen as Lucifer continued torturing Athena and she roared out in pain. It was such a loud noise.

“Sorry, Luke. I didn’t want you seeing this. It’s extremely graphic,” Simeon apologized as he attempted to cover Luke’s eyes and ears. Imagine his surprise as Luke slapped Simeon’s hands away as Athena dropped to the ground, roars now reducing to pitiful whimpers.

“It’s going to die soon. We’re letting it die on it’s own,” Lucifer sighed tiredly as he walked towards Diavolo and Barbatos who was standing with the others.

“ATHENA!” Luke cried out as he ran towards her, ignoring the yells and calls of the others (monsters,theyallare.whydidtheydothis.why.why.why.why.why.why).

“Luke! Come back! It’s very danger-”

“SHUT UP!” Luke shouted in anguish and everyone stared at the angel who was currently sobbing.

“Athena, hey... hey, I’m right here,” he stammered out. Athena managed to open her eyes a little and she let out a small whine, although it sounded like a sound a mother would make to try and comfort her child.

“You’re going to be alright, I promise. I’m not letting you slip away from me,” he whispered, even though in reality there was nothing he could do. Everyone tried to walk to Luke but the angel kept glaring at them with eyes so cold and harsh for someone like him. Athena then made a noise between a chuff and a whine, and Luke carefully took her head and hugged it softly.

“I promise. When you’re alright, we’ll build the biggest tree house on a pine tree. If we ever have secrets we can whisper them to flowers and bury them underground. When you’re alright, we can go to the ocean, yeah? We’ve always talked about that,” Luke’s voice started to quiver as he held Athena’s fur a little more tightly, and all the others could do was watch.

“When you’re alright, you’ll take me to your home. Your real one! I know you weren’t born here, you’re too beautiful for that. When you’re alright, we’ll make our own paradise!” Simeon widened his eyes at the younger, along with Solomon and the others. Luke has never spoken like that, believing that the Celestial Realm was their paradise. “We can make a lot of memories! It’ll be ours to keep.”

“If you can’t be alright, I’ll help you! I can make a special compass, like the one we’ve been working on so that I don’t get lost in the forest anymore. Except, that compass only points to me! Like that, if anything happens, we can still be together! That compass will bring us closer to each other so we’ll never be apart!”

“If you can’t heal yourself, I’ll take the broken pieces and I’ll put them back together!” Luke’s voice kept breaking after each sentence. “If the grass isn’t green enough, or the flowers aren’t lively enough, we’ll build ourselves a new world!”

“Wherever you go when you’re finally alright, I’ll be there with you - one day. It doesn’t matter if you’re way high up in the galaxy or in the depth of the sea, I’ll always be there!”

“So please, please be alright,” Luke whispered out this last sentence in desperation. The others were already in disbelief and confusion, while realization it Solomon when he saw Luke giving Athena the sweets he always brought to go outside to meet his... friend.

“Oh, we messed up,” Solomon whispered. Everyone whipped their heads to look at him. “Luke made a friend. We’ve established that. We just didn’t realize the friend he made was...” Solomon cut himself off as he gulped. Everyone else just stiffened as realization hit them too.

“They call you a monster but I promise Athena, you aren’t,” Luke whispered. “They’re the ones who are the monsters, trying to hurt you.”

Athena let out something akin to a sigh, and it sounded satisfied. Luke let out a shaky breath and petted Athena as she closed her eyes once more.

“You promise me, Athena. You promise me you’re going to be alright.”

The silent sobs that followed felt like a thousands stabs in the heart to the others. The pure happiness and innocence Luke used to carry disappeared, leaving only emptiness and despair.
