The Writer was sitting at her desk, pecking away at her keyboard when she
felt a little tug on her shirt.  Looking down, there was a small ring of
angry children surrounding her, and they had apparently elected Lionel their
spokesman.

"Yes, Lionel?"

Lionel's little chest puffed up in pride at being addressed like a grown up.
"Lucifer has been cheating at hide and seek, and we're not going to play with
him anymore.  We want to complain."

The Writer picked Lionel up and put him on her knee.  "Lionel, sweetie... you
can't exactly expect the Devil to play fair."

"But he sent Zeke out to hunt us down instead of doing it himself!  And then
he told Zeke to poke our eyes out to send us back to heck!"  Lionel's lower
lip trembled.

The Writer sighed deeply.  "Lucifer can't have Zeke send you anywhere,
because you're not dead," she reassured Lionel.  "You don't have to play with
Lucifer any more."

"But he almost blinded Lex!"

"I know that, Lionel."

"But he tried to *hurt* my son!"

The Writer sighed again.  "Lionel... listen.  Zeke and Lucifer won't hurt
Lex, all right?  I'll talk to Zeke about the eye poking."

Lionel nodded, and tried not to sniffle.  "All right.  But if he doesn't
listen to you, the rest of us are going to tie him and Lucifer to a tree so
we can play."

The Writer shook her head.  "Baby, if he doesn't listen to me, then I'll give
you the rope, okay?"

"Okay."  Lionel slid down off the Writer's lap, and hugged her leg briefly
before herding the other children back off the to the playroom.

The Writer dropped her head into her hands.  "LUCIFER!!!!!  EZEKIEL!!!"

TBC, later
