Lucifer passes through the door, leaving a defeated and speechless Sophia on her knees in the hall. He then shuts the door and it disappears.
As he approaches the unconscious Rocky, he speaks. "Don't take this personal. I am sure to give you a better reason to hate me." He then reaches out his hand to Rocky's forehead. "Time to wake up!" Suddenly, four of the fingers, on his right hand, are severed. Lucifer looks at his hand. "Hmm.. That is new." He says curiously.
Deep within Rocky's sleeping mind, a black wolf reefed in red paces impassionately along an iron fence. Periodically, he lashes out at the fence in an attempt to break it.
A grey wolf stands further behind watching silently. After a while, he cautiously approaches. "You are not getting out until your host awakens. That being said, we are firmly uncooperative."
The black wolf turns quickly and lashes out at the grey wolf, but the grey wolf quickly pins him underfoot.
"You need to work on your 'pleases' and 'thank yous'." The grey wolf groans.
The black wolf strains to look up. "I am wrath, destroyer..."
"I know full well who, or rather what, you are." The grey wolf interrupts. "However, around here we run on a hierarchy system. If you want out, you must become the next alpha."
Wrath yanks back, freeing himself, and stares angrily. "Show me who I must crush!!" He barks.
"Politeness would get you much further.." The grey wolf says as he rolls his eyes and motions him to follow.
As they walk through an endless void of white, a group of spectral wolves begin slowly surrounding and walking with them. A blue and red wolf growl and snap at Wrath. Wrath turns to lash out but catches the grey wolf's eye as he glares back angrily.
"If you lay a hand on them, I will sever your head from your neck!!" He growls.
The other wolves stop as if surprised by the grey wolf's anger.
Wrath turns up his nose and continues to follow. After some time of walking and more of Rocky's pack joining the escort, they reach Rocky.
He sits on a throne made of a live tree and glares at Wrath as he approaches. "So you are the intruder who dared to enter my mind and seeks to claim my body!" He growls. "Give me one good reason why we should not tear you apart right here and now!!" He says as his aura transforms around him, forming a bi-pedaled wolf of gold.
Wrath clenches his teeth as he watches the pack slowly close in on him. He then steps forward. "Without me, you are trapped in a world of endless hell!! If I am not allowed to fulfill my role..."
"Fulfill your role with someone else!!" Rocky interrupts with a roar. "I will not be your pawn!!"
The pack moves even closer readying to leap upon Wrath with a simple order.
"NO! No pawns, a partnership, a collaboration!" Wrath exclaims nervously.
The grey wolf slowly steps forward. "Master, the world can not end unless all the sins awaken."
"What makes you think I want the world to end?!!" Rocky growls as he glares at Wrath with glowing red eyes. "I have a wife and daughter here, not to mention many valuable friends! If anything, you owe me for robbing me of precious time with them!!" He says, leaping off his throne and landing inches from Wrath.
Wrath lashes out but is quickly knocked down and pinned by a foot to his throat. He struggles to look up. "I can't.. take another host.. unless you die!!"
"Then I shall lock you away!!" Rocky growls back and turns to the white wolf. "Consume him!" He orders.
Before the grey wolf can object, the white wolf leaps upon Wrath and begins to consume him with ravenous speed. Just before Wrath is completely consumed, he smiles evilly.
"YOU FOOL!!!" Wrath's voice booms through the void.
With a sudden and violent chain of actions, the white wolf convulses and stands on his hind legs, leaps upon the nearby red wolf, and begins consuming him. Rocky and the grey wolf rush over to stop him but are quickly knocked away. They watch in horror as, one by one, all the wolves are consumed.
"What is happening?!!" Rocky asks the grey wolf as he leaps up.
"Wrath has taken control of your fear and anger. He now seeks to consume you, mind and body." The grey wolf replies.
Back in 343's room, a red and black aura slowly consumes Rocky as he floats to his feet.
Lucifer smiles as his hand heals. "Finally!!!"
Rocky turns his head to him and tosses him into a wall. He then breaks through 343's room into the facility where Sophia meets him and walks with him, as if in a trance.
Lucifer gets to his feet and dusts off his suit. "Good to see you too, Wrath!!" He growls. "I swear, I need to get some more polite associates.."
The screams of pain and terror become deafening, to the point Lucifer phases out of existence to join 343.
Once Lucifer enters the alternate dimension, 343 is staring at an observation portal. "So it has begun.." 343 says unhappily.
"Any idea what we can expect from the next dimension?" Lucifer asks.
343 turns towards him. "Imagine the most mixed up, shit show possible and then multiply that by ten."
"Chaos." Lucifer says in a mocking tone. "Just my kind of world!"
"Trust me, even that dimension will be over the top for you.." 343 groans.
"You know, used to.. you were the over the top one and I was just spontaneously deviant. What happened to us?" Lucifer asks thoughtfully.
"SCP-914 changes everything.. everything except memories, apparently." 343 says blankly.
Lucifer points to his face as he smiles. "Almost everything! I still have a stunning smile!"
343 glances at him with a skeptical expression. "Sure.. Like a serial killer in heat.."
Lucifer shrugs. "Doesn't sound like anything changed then!" He then looks at the viewing portal. "Ah! It looks like our dearly possessed hero just found his dead wife!"
"What did you do?!" 343 turns and watches as Rocky approaches Jennifer's lifeless body, her heart ripped from her chest and laying on the floor beside her.
Rocky seems to stop and looks down at the body.
682 slowly approaches from around a corner. "So.. You have become the host of the Sin of Wrath. However, I wonder if you are so far gone that you wouldn't even recognize the woman you loved."
Rocky does not respond as he continues to stare at the lifeless body.
682 takes a readied stance. "Aren't you going to react?!! Scream, cry, do something, but don't stand there pretending to be a heartless monster. That is my title!!"
Inside Rocky's mind, he sees Jennifer's lifeless body and becomes enraged.
"FUCKING SINS!! I WILL KILL ALL OF YOU AND LUCIFER FOR PUTTING US THROUGH THIS!!" Rocky roars, on his knees.
Wrath turns to him. "Silence! Your wife was offered a mercy, not killed in some tortuous blood bath!" He then turns away again. "Just let me do my job, and you will see her again soon.."
Rocky and the grey wolf advance on Wrath, but he quickly turns and blasts them back into a cage.
"Shut up and sit still!!" Wrath barks. "We are almost done here!"
Back in the facility, 682 charges Rocky. Just as 682 opens his mouth to consume Rocky, he is sliced into tiny pieces. Blood splatters the ceiling, walls, and floor as 682's eyes roll to a stop at Rocky's feet.
Rocky looks down. "Disgustingly pathetic as always, 682.." He says blankly as he walks on.
Lucifer watches as Rocky approaches SCP-166's door. He then turns away. "I'm out!"
343 waves his hand and makes the viewing portal disappear. "I can't watch that either. That dear child doesn't deserve that brutality."
Lucifer glances back. "And here I thought you had become a heartless god."
343 shakes his head. "You were not the only one watching over Epon all these years. I have done everything within my power to keep her in good spirits."
Lucifer turns away. "Thank.. you." He then pulls SCP-272 from his pocket. "When the time comes.. I will deal with Wrath. He is often the last sin standing."
"Okay." 343 says unhappily.
Lucifer then phases out.
343 covers his ears as the screams of Epon and the others reach his consciousness. He then falls to the floor and curls into the fettle position. "Mommy.. daddy.. make it stop. MAKE IT STOP!!!" He sobs.
