Devilman Crybaby: After

Wake up

"Akira! Akira!!"
A voice chanted that name a thousand times before realizing it was too late.

The voice disappeared into nothing...

A group of angels descended on the half-corpse that laid out on the bare rock overlooking the blood sea.

The other angel's tears had dried on his dark skin.

He had been dead for a while now. He had lost against Satan. Lost. Lost everything and everyone he ever loved.

The corpse remained still, the eyes still possessed that same heartbroken look from before.

The corpse (or what was left of it) implied that this Akira was once a handsome youth. Blessed with the powers from Amon, Akira had a solid physique, was over 6 feet tall, and masculine features. He could be described as beautiful by some girls but brooding by the rest of the people. It didn't matter now though. He was dead.

The angels looked around at each other. They didn't know what to do...

They studied the anguished expression on his face to the rest of his upper torso. The rest of his body had been cut off by Satan himself.

"What should we do? He's gone now. There's no point in reviving him" one angel said

"I agree. As painful as it is, he has nothing. Even if he was brought back it could... change everything. He might try to die again" another admitted

"It's too much of a risk. Satan lost too. He deserves to repeat this time loop and suffer the consequences of what he done. He deserves this fate"

"Only God has the power to decide. Only he can bring him back"

The angels agreed at this.

"We should leave the corpse alone. No point in mulling over something that doesn't have meaning anymore. This Akira person should Rest In Peace. We should let him" one angel said.

The other angels nodded solemnly and started to depart.

They stopped suddenly, feeling a presence that was all too familiar for them.

God was here.

The Translator was here.

The angels bowed their heads and knelt before the Lord.

The Translator had with them the body of Satan who was in a coma like state.

The Translator muttered a few words as they flew by.

They stopped at the body of Akira Fudo.

The angels could not hear it, but the Translator was speaking to God.

"It will change the course of the loop. This awakening may not be for the best. Akira's awakening and the awakening of the other devilmen could pose some potential issues. Of course, this is to teach Satan a lesson of course" the Translator spoke to and for God.

"Akira's awakening will leave him bitter and cynical. But he is not without hope. There is something left that could allow Satan to renounce his sins and join the army of Angels once more. Or he could simply be sent back to hell" the Translator placed Satan's body next to Akira's.

"It is time for you to return Akira" the Translator put a hand to Akira's face.

The angels crowded around to see what was to be done but could not see because of the blinding flash that came after.
