《Gabriel "The Bastard Son"》A Change of Heart
Advertisement
After his battle with Marbas, Gabriel made his way towards the portal that brought him originally to this domain of hell, having Marbas' battleaxe in his possession made him feel like a true victor, just the thought that he
brought judgement on his enemies was enough to spark a smile on his face,the axe was more or less a reminder for his achievement. As he was walking he noticed that every now and then some imps watching him and hiding
from sight as soon as he turned to face them. The fear in their eyes was clear and they weren't going to cause any more problems for Gabriel. Leaving so many witnesses behind though isn't the smartest idea, Gabriel didn't give
it much thought as he was consumed with victory's sweet feeling. The smile on his face didn't make it clear if what he did was for revenge or for personal enjoyment. Gabriel made his way to the portal and entered, leaving this
place behind along with the destruction he brought to it...
Mak-Hey, you are back!
Gabriel-Yeah.
Munderic-Did you...Did you really kill Marbas?
Gabriel-I thought that was obvious.
Munderic-Marbas...Dead?
Gabriel-Yeah.
Munderic-Damn.
Mak-Damn.
Gabriel-Damn right.
Mak-Thank god, now I don't have to spend the rest of my days with the ugliest fucking thing that I ever saw.
Gabriel-But I do.
Mak-That's not nice at all.
Munderic-Thank you sir.
Mak-Sir?
Munderic-I am sorry, it's just that I can't believe it.
Mak-I have a question.
Gabriel-What is it?
Mak-What the fuck is with this giant axe?
Gabriel-That was Marbas' weapon.
Mak-He had a weapon?
Gabriel-Yeah...Why wouldn't he?
Munderic-Mak is right. He shouldn't have a weapon.
Gabriel-Will any of you idiots explain why?
Mak-Calm down mate. For him to have a weapon could mean only one thing...
Gabriel-For fucks sake, tell me.
Munderic-Mid-class demons don't have weapons. Especially infused.
Gabriel-Infused?
Mak-Iron infused with demon remains.
Gabriel-Remains?You mean corpses?
Mak-Yes.The demons that lost their lives during the great battle of heaven and hell had their bodies infused with iron weapons giving them increased power.
Gabriel-So this isn't just a cool looking battleaxe?
Mak-I myself have no idea what this is. If it really is an infused weapon, you have gotten yourself a nice upgrade mate.
Gabriel-Oh shit.
Mak-What?
Gabriel-I destroyed Marbas without leaving anything to absorb.

Mak-Hm...Since you already have some demon inside you, I don't know what would happen. Did Marbas display any unique abilities?
Gabriel-I don't know what demons can do in the first place. How the fuck would I know if he did anything special?
Mak-Just tell me what happened.
Gabriel-I kicked his ass.
Mak-Anything more specific you moron.
Gabriel-I am going to kick your ass next.
Mak-Can you just focus for a fucking second and tell me? (Why is he so carefree all of a sudden?)
Gabriel-At some point he transformed in something slightly less ugly than Mundy's pet.
Mak-That's it?
Gabriel-Pretty much, yeah.
Mak-And that weapon?
Gabriel-It appeared as soon as he transformed.
Mak-He conjured it...
Gabriel-Does it matter where it came from?
Mak-Only high-class demons have infused weapons. If he had one then it means he has some powerful friends.
Gabriel-He had...Not anymore.
Mak-That's the point, word of his death will spread. Sooner or later.
Munderic-Does this mean we are in trouble?
Mak-Probably not. I mean they have no clue as to who killed Marbas. Right?
Gabriel-I did let some imps live. Does that mean I am at war with hell now?
Mak-They are not going to send anyone after you based on the words of imps.
Gabriel-We are good then.
Gabriel-See you Mundy, don't make me come here again.
Munderic-No, of course not, I will make sure that my deals are going to be safe from now on.
Mak-Mundy...
Munderic-Maybe I won't make anymore...
Gabriel-That's my boy. Later.
Mak-Are you serious?
Gabriel-What?
Munderic-Mr.Gabriel...
Gabriel-What!?
Mak-Do you want to scare the shit out of his mother?Are you going back with that giant axe on your shoulder?
Gabriel-Oh right...
Mak-(What has gotten into him? He was dead serious before the fight.With the succubus even.It's like a different person).
Gabriel-What do you want me to do about it?
Munderic-I might be able to help you.
Mak-How?
Munderic-I can cast a binding spell on the axe and bind it to a smaller object, all you have to do is put some power into it and it will regain shape when you need it.
Gabriel-Like what Marbas did?
Munderic-Yes, once powered the binding spell won't be able to contain it.
Gabriel-And then?
Munderic-When you draw that power back the spell will take action again and it will go to the sealed form.

Gabriel-That's really convenient.
Mak-Yeah, we can't have you walking around everywhere with a giant fiery battleaxe. How would that go?
Gabriel-It is a really nice way for me to have a weapon during a fight without having to explain how it got there.Mundy do your spell.
Munderic-I am afraid I haven't mastered that spell yet.
Mak-Huh?
Munderic-I am going to ask you to leave the axe here and when I have it ready I will mail it to you.
Mak-The post office wouldn't be so happy if they knew they carried a demonic infused weapon.
Gabriel-Not funny.
Mak-Fuck you.
Gabriel-Ok, I'll leave you the axe, but it's mine.
Munderic-Yes of course, I wouldn't dare to steal from you Mr.Gabriel, after all, you killed Marbas.
Gabriel-Right...Mak write down Kevin's address for him to mail the axe.
Mak-I don't remember it.
Gabriel-You don't remember where you live for the past fucking months?
Mak-You write it down then.
Gabriel-I...I also don't remember.
Mak-And you yelled at me, ashole.
Gabriel-Hey, I can kill you.
Mak-Fair point.Let's call Kevin and ask him.
Gabriel-You are the one with the cellpho...
Mak-Oh crap.
Gabriel-That's why I can't fucking stand you.
Mak-Why don't you have a cell phone?
Gabriel-Because...
Mak-Because after the gun incident, Kevin doesn't trust you at all!
Gabriel-Shut up, we can call from Mundy's phone.
Munderic-Sure.
Gabriel called Kevin and handed the phone to Mak.
Mak-Why me?
Gabriel-Shut up and talk to him, he is going yell at me for going after Marbas.
Kevin-Yeah.
Mak-Hey doc.
Kevin-WHERE THE FUCK ARE YOU TWO?
Mak-Relax, Gabriel already took care of the matter.
Kevin-HE WENT TO HELL AND KILLED MARBAS? IS HE MAD??
Munderic-I can hear this Kevin guy from here.
After a long fight with Kevin, Mak learned the address and wrote it down for Munderic to send the sealed weapon once it was finished. Gabriel didn't even talk to Kevin as he didn't want to hear his lecture even though he knew he could not
avoid it for long.When he goes back to Kevin's house he was going to hear all of it. Gabriel, Mak, and Munderic all went upstairs where they found Munderic's mother doing the dishes...
Munderic's mother-Have you finished your game?
Munderic-Yes mom.
Gabriel and Mak were trying to hold themselves from laughing.
Munderic's mother-I am glad to see that you made some friends Mundy.
Mak-Oh, Mundy has a lot of friends.
Munderic's mother-Really?
Mak-Some of them are good, but some are bad.
Munderic's mother-Mundy would never make bad friends.
Mak-Yeah, I am just joking.
Munderic was sweating, for a moment he thought that Mak would reveal he was a warlock.
Munderic-My friends have to leave now mom.
Munderic's mother-I hope to see you soon, if you would continue to be Mundy's friends I would apreciate that a lot.He is a bit weird at times, but he is a good kid.
Munderic-Mom!
Gabriel and Mak were barely holding their laughter.
Gabriel-Don't worry madam, we will.
Gabriel and Mak left the house and begun their way to the airport, it was a silent walk until the moment they reallized that they have made a huge mistake.
Mak-Dude.
Gabriel-What?
Mak-We don't have tickets.
Gabriel-Oh shit.
Mak-Shit.How are we going to go back?
Gabriel-Go and book two tickets then.
Mak-I don't have any money.
Gabriel-You fucking moron.
Mak-It's not like you have a solution.
Gabriel-As a matter of fact I do.
Mak-And what is that?
Gabriel-Mercenary work pays well.
Mak-If you had money, why did you yell at me?
Gabriel-Cause it's fun.
Mak-Wait, did you have money back at the school?
Gabriel-Nope.
Mak-Why?
Gabriel-I forgot the money stash at Kevin's that time.
Mak-You are an idiot.
Gabriel-Look who is talking...
So Gabriel and Mak are once again at the airport waiting for their flight, Mak was concerned about Gabriel's sudden change of mood but he didn't give it much thought. Both of them were now prepared for Kevin's lecture once they were to
arrive back home, Gabriel thought for a second to go to the bar that he rented while he was the Faceless Hunter in order to avoid Kevin until he calmed down, but with little to no money in his pockets after the airplane tickets that was out
of the question.He hoped that the flight would never take off so he wouldn't have to face Kevin, little did he know that he was going to be late either way...
