Chapter 11 -- A Demons End
*This Chapter is more story than erotic so please do not get mad at me!
The elite holy servants of the Decretum Daemon Venator entered the lobby of Lilith's building, each chanting words of power from a ten thousand year old dead language. The building vibrated as the Venators holy spell assaulted the demon portal.
Inside Lilith's bedroom, the portal appeared visible to the naked human eye; it is swirling red with the fires of the abyss visible on the other side. Intense heat and vicious gases from the abyss with its much higher-pressure atmosphere surged through into the human world igniting the bed and rooms curtains. The Venators (hunters), begun rushing the stairs heading directly for Lilith's apartment.
Maephrogh was toying with a soul from the pit, a perverse but common past time of demons. He wove a particularly rare and powerful spell of utterly unspeakable pain, which had taken him five thousand years to master. He could now do it without actually annihilating the soul itself in the process. The soul once known as Lee screamed in agony as Maephrogh suddenly felt something wrong.
An abomination of holy energy surrounded him in his own domain. It wracked him with pain, real demon pain he felt himself pulled, summoned by vile holiness as he disappeared. He came through his own swirling portal in Lilith's bedroom, for which he is bound.
He flew out backwards, followed by a violent flame as he crashed into a wall. His body smashed the room's window, with its burning curtains. The red swirling demon portal flashed and turned blue. It warped the light around it, making the room itself appear to be wobbling, as it snapped shut, sealed trapping Maephrogh.
Maephrogh was shocked, long ago the forces of the abyss and light ended open battle between demon and angel on the Earth's surface with an agreement. Both had the human equivalent of an arm's agreement, restricting access to Earth, and forcing strict rules on weapons.

Only once every seven years, could the Queen of the Abyss or the Light of God, open a tear to earth using ancient timeless power and the intense desperation or faith of a human.
God had not opened any portals, or sent any Archangels to aid humanity for a little over two thousand years. The humans, it seemed were left on their own and had continued the fight with surprising ferocity, earning some although never admitted to respect from the Abyss.
However, the Abyss was relentless and had been slowly winning a war of hearts and minds for the last two thousand years. The humans would slow it down sometimes, but the Abyss always managed to deal a blow every so often, tricking millions to turn on each other.
The humans, at least initially, were often only too happy in marching to their committal of mortal sins. The 20th century had been an especially good century, not since the plagues had the Abyss had so many successes. Its pit had been well fed and its ranks had swelled.
The Queen of the Abyss did not want to risk open conflict on Earth, even though she was sure her forces could more than overwhelm the humans and gods forces combined easily. She had still adhered to the rules, so far.
Perhaps, due ironically to paranoia over god's suspicious silence, the Abyss suspected it was all a ruse, to goad them into breaking the agreement. She feared with the Abyss lunching a full on assault by leaving the Abyss and then exposing themselves to being annihilated, by a possible and much feared unknown holy weapon.
Demon spawn, those from the loins of the Queen herself, such as Maephrogh were restricted to the immediate summon area. The same restriction applied to god's archangels. Only the reborn such as Lilith and Mary, those who were already of the Earth, could move freely on the Earth's surface. The Abyss loathed closing an open portal due to this reason.
