Lilith was still asleep, peaceful - without knowledge of what was yet to come.
Lucifer had played with her the whole night, their love seemed to be endless, those passionate kisses and the sweet-struggles were still fresh in his mind. Their bodies were like being blown about to and fro by a violent storm, without hope of rest - aimlessly, as the Lust played its music.
He gently pushed away the string of hair annoying her peaceful sleep.
A flash of thought passed his mind - " Am i one of those Opportunists, who in life did nothing, neither for good nor evil ? "
The question was still stuck in his mind as he left Lilith there - guilt was screaming inside him - he walked till a distance - from where he could get a good view of her, a soft tear rolled down his cheeks. He turned around spread open his wings - flapped and never did he turned back.He had to leave Lilith as she did not belong to him.
Lilith hearing the faint beats of Lucifer's wings awoke - ran behind him like a mad-woman - she cried her heart-out - begged Lucifer to come back. Lucifer turned deaf to her pleadings.
Lilith was broken - she sat down and gazed at her feet - they were bleeding - thorns embedded in them.
And Michael landed before her - he had a fierce look ," O ye lady of Adam - thou hath disregarded the true love of your mate -.. ".
As he continued, Lilith spoke, " The one i loved hath abandoned me, and the one who loves me ... - please ask him to forget me and i know he won't forgive me though - ... and i am not ready to listen anymore", Michael left her alone with defeated shoulders.
Lilith cursed herself - and she broke like a shattering glass - in all directions. Out of each piece flew a winged-creature, red, fork-tailed -- The Harpies..!!
Someone died in G-d's kingdom for the first time. Lilith was death's first taste.
Michael saw this from distance - it was the most disturbing sight he had ever seen.
Lucifer too saw this, and screamed in agony, he wished that he was never born to see this sight.He questioned himself - why was this happening to him, "I was the only one who refused to submit to Adam just because that I espoused a great love for G-d – and, that i had sworn to never bow to anyone except G-d., just because i am the most loyal lover of G-d, ... what a cruel play, deprived of love and thrown into Inferno till eternity - for my loyalty ?"
Michael, knew that there was something wrong - and G-d had "The plan for salvation" in place but why did Lilith had to do this, and how would the plan be carried over now - with Lilith dead, there will be no children of Adam and no salvation. How is this supposed to be ??
Questions in his mind - hundred.
Michael conveyed the happened to G-d, and went to Eden to console Adam - and he was shocked to see Lilith with Adam. Confused and Puzzled - he flew to the Throne - and asked what was happening, -- G-d replied, " My faithful servant Michael - The one you saw is not Lilith, but Eve - and i hath created her out of Adam's rib - Adam and his children would be under the veil of forgetfulness, until the Apocalypse".
Mad in Lilith's love and overcome by the grief - Lucifer vowed to avenge Lilith's death, and promised himself , "I will ascend to Heaven; I will raise my throne above the stars of G-d; I will sit enthroned on the mount of assembly, on the utmost heights of the sacred mountain. I will ascend above the tops of the clouds; I will make myself like the Most High".
What happened next was the "War of Heaven", - Lucifer was finally defeated and Michael stood over Lucifer ready to strike.
G-d intervened and said," i need a private word with you , Dear Lucifer".
G-d, explained that everything had been predestined - Adam - Lilith - The Bow - Lilith's end - Lucifer's Anger - War of Heaven -... and so will be the Plan of Salvation.
As a Slave of War - your freedom is at the end of Apocalypse and it would happen only if you complete your duties agreeing to the "The Plan of Salvation". And Lilith will be waiting for you till the End of the Final day.
Lucifer questioned," But.... Why me ?".
"Because Lucifer - ", G-d replied, " I trust you the most and you are the most-desperate* of all".
