Before the Fall
Ana laughed as she soared through the clouds of heaven. She loved to feel the wind rushing over her face, blowing her dark locks behind her over the ever-glowing halo hovering over her head. She loved to dance in the sky, her spread white wings giving her a grace and agility few of the heavenly host could match. She loved this life. She loved playing and having fun with the other angels of the host, especially Andela. The two were close, even among her kind. She enjoyed teasing his thoughtful straight-forward and serious demeanor. She enjoyed playing with him up here in the skies of their home.
Now he was chasing her, but she had deliberately flew into this cloud bank and looped upward higher into it. She was certain Andela had no idea she was behind him now. And sure enough he emerged out of the cloud below her searching the skies for where she was. Holding back a mischievous giggle Ana tucked her wings and dove down straight for him. He had no idea she had turned the hunter into the hunted. The look on his face when she caught him would be priceless.
She opened her wings to pull up right over him. He was just now realizing she was above him. Just as he was turning his head to look above she reached out putting hands on his shoulders and giggled. "I've caught you again, Andela."
Andela protested that he was the one supposed to be chasing her, not the other way around, but that just made Ana giggle harder. She loved playing with Andela. She loved Andela. However, below in the ever-blossoming Elysian fields of heaven was a dark splotch and in the center was someone. Curious she began to circle down to them with Andela close behind. Whoever it was was bent over on his knees face in hands and it looks like his pristine white feathers were turning ashen and then black before falling from his wings to land of the ground around him. It wasn't long before she realized who it was.
"Lucifer," She called out to him, "Is something wrong?"
Lucifer lifted his head looking up at them, and Ana could see he'd been weeping, but his tears were tears of blood. "His new creations in eden...he loves them more than us."

The Battlefield
It had taken Ana a while to convince her leader, Lucifer the fallen, to give her plan a try, but the enemy was pressing forward hard. None of his warriors could stop the Old Narcissist's champion. So, in the end he relented. She spread her bat-like wings and flew across the plane of Limbo to the constantly shifting field of battle.
Once there she took charge of the lesser demons and imps of their forward base camp. The enemy's champion had been a constant torment to the lot of them defeating and even vanquishing several of them. Her plan would work.
She sent the imps first at him, wave after wave of them. Imps were small, not very bright, and easily slain. She spaced out the assaults to let the enemy's champion to slaughter them but giving him no relief between attacks. Then came the pride and wrath demons, the muscle of their forces. The enemy champion had more of a fight on his hand to defeat so many again and again. Again, Ana had spaced out each assault upon the enemy champion to give him no chance to catch his breath, and by the time he was slaying the last of her Wrath demons she stepped foot before.
From the veil of her robe Ana watched him. He was magnificent as always, every move despite the fatigue he must be feeling was crisp and without wasted effort. Ana's lips smirked as she watched him behead the last of her demons. "Very good." She purred as he spun around to face her next.
Looking at him as his sword and armor were splattered and drenched in the blood and ichor of her soldiers. She could see him panting from his lengthy exertions. She continued stepping forward towards him unconcerned over the sword he held at the ready to decapitate her next. "I see that you're a very impressive warrior now."
She met him eye to eye, "I've changed too." With that she undid the clasp holding her robe together. It slid down her body revealing her to his eyes. Unlike him she wore no armor, or anything at all. He could see everything. Her spade-tipped tail and the bat-like wings that had replaced her feathered ones and the curling black horns from her head that had replaced the halo he'd seen her carry last. She was naked in all her profane and debaucherous beauty before him. She let him get an eyeful before lashing out with the onyx dagger she held in her hand. He dodged it, and reflexively swung out with his bloody sword. He was tired and she was not. Ana easily ducked beneath his swing and nicked his arm with her blade as she stepped up against laughing as she always had when she had played with him before.
As the poison surged through his veins she blew him a kiss. He staggered back shakily. The poison wouldn't kill him, but it was potent enough that it would render him unconscious in moments. She stood over him as his vision started to go black and giggled. "I've caught you again, Andela."
