(A/N: Howdy folks. For those of you that enjoy the fear 'Hellraiser' can spark in you, you'll love this. I don't normally do stories like this but my friend is an excellent at horror stories so we are working together on this one. I must warn you though, this story has lots of violence and gore, the kind that you would find in the 'Hellraiser' movies.)

"HELLRAISER: UNHOLY UNION"
Chapter 1: Unholy Union
Xipe Totec, more commonly known as Pinhead, walked through the depths of Hell. He was a demon. The leader of the Cenobites, demons to some, angles to others, the bringers of ultimate pain and pleasure. Angelique, the demon princess of Hell walked beside him. Normally they wouldn't come to this part of Hell, but today they had been summoned.
They walked through the fires of Hell. The flames licked at their bodies. Though they did not burn, the flames caused them incredible pain, and incredible pleasure. Hell wasn't just fire and brimstone as most mortals believed. They had such a limited imagination. They didn't understand the true meaning of pain and the pleasures it could bring.
The Cenobites were once humans that had fallen to the power of the Lament Configuration, a seemingly innocent puzzle box that unleashed unspeakable horror to those who opened it. The box was a means to summon the Cenobites who would then claim their summoner 's soul and damn them to an eternity in Hell.
But that wasn't the case with all those that opened the Box. A select few were consumed by evil, had their souls torn apart, and then put back together. These people became the Cenobites. Even Pinhead had once been human. He was formerly Elliott Spenser, an unfortunate mortal corrupted by the power of the Box. Now he was practically the Antichrist.
Pinhead had been around for a long time. He was not alive, nor was he dead. He was in a type of limbo between the two. Thus allowing him to travel between Hell and Earth. The Box was the door between the two worlds. Pinhead had brought countless souls back to Hell with them. Here he would torture them for all eternity. He had no mercy in his heart.
There were a few souls that had escaped him, much to his anger. Kirsty was the first. She had sent him back to Hell after he took her uncle's soul. Then she managed to free his humanity. Him and Elliott had separated, and he had been trapped in the Pillar of Souls. But he had escaped. Only this time he was on Earth and not in Hell. Only the Box could send him back. A young woman named Joey had it. And he would have taken it back if it wasn't for his human side. Elliott had tried to stop him. He and Pinhead became one again. With his last bit of strength, Elliott had begged Joey to send them to Hell. And now here he was, back in Hell again.
It wasn't that bad. He simply went back to his old method of claiming souls. He had claimed so many. But he wanted the first one that escaped him. Kirsty. He almost got her too. But Kirsty was smart. She made a deal with him. Five souls in exchange for her own. A fair trade.
But now something was happening. He and Angelique had been summoned to the seventh circle of Hell by the Dark Lord, Satan himself. This was why this part of Hell was consumed in flames. Satan's anger and hatred for everything created these flames. And Pinhead was walking through them without a second thought.
He and Angelique stepped out of them flames. In front of them was a large lake filled with black acid. The greatest of evil rested in this lake.
"You have summoned us and we have come, master." said Pinhead.
"What do you require from us?" Angelique asked.
A large figure erupted from out of the acid. It resembled a large black dragon burned to the bones. An angry red light surrounded the beast. Eyes made of fire stared at his two minions.
"Welcome, my children." the devil greeted them. His voice was unbelievable low and filled with evil. "For years we have brought misery to others by means of the Lament Configuration. But now the time has come for us to open the gates of Hell for all eternity. It is time for the mortals to find out what Hell on Earth truly means."
Pinhead liked the sound of that. "What will you have us do?" he asked. "Your wish is our command."
Satan stared at his servants. If he was capable of smiling he would. But he could never feel joy. All that was within him was anger and hatred. "I have many servants that do my bidding, but you, Xipe Topec, are my greatest creation. And your creation shall be the key to accomplishing what I desire."
Pinhead bowed his head. "What will you have me do?" he repeated. His jet black eyes stared at his master in anticipation.
"The child of darkness shall bring forth the apocalypse." Satan explained. "When the darkest of souls manages to corrupt an innocent soul by their own free will, Hell shall reign on Earth through them. Their soul will become our portal."
"Tell us, master, where is this soul?" Angelique begged. "Tell us where to find them."
"The two of you are to create it. Two darknesses shall become one and far a greater darkness shall be born."
Pinhead cocked his head to the side. "You wish for us to conceive a child? To be the parents of the darkest of souls?"
Satan flicked out his black reptilian tongue. "I do. Your offspring will bring darkness to the mortals. You have your orders. Now go. I have spoken."
Pinhead and Angelique looked at each other. This was unexpected. The two of them were to have a child. And their child shall bring for the apocalypse. Never had either of them dreamed of something like this happening. Their only pleasure was the pain of others.
Pinhead held his hand out to Angelique. "We are to conceive a child." he said.
Angelique nodded. "And our child will bring Hell on Earth."
"Our flesh and blood shall reign supreme."
"And we will be there to show them the true meaning of pain and pleasure."
As the flames of Hell danced around them, Pinhead and Angelique kissed. The two explored new levels of pain and pleasure beyond anything even they could have imagined.

Much had happened in during the time of Angelique's pregnancy. To make sure that no divine powers interfered with then evil being growing in Angelique's unholy womb. Pinhead had gone to Earth several times, claiming many souls as Angelique waited in anticipation for their dark child to be born.
At long last, the moment came. All of Hell's minions had gathered around to watch the child of darkness arrive. During the labor, Angelique had cried out in pain and ecstasy as her child tore at her insides. The pain was intense, and she loved every minute of it. Pain was her pleasure.
When the child was born, Pinhead held up the child for all to see. "Behold the unholy one. My son shall be our path to Earth, and we shall reign supreme."
In one arm Pinhead held his son, while in the other he held the Box. Slowly it solved itself and opened. Pinhead vanished as he was transported to Earth.
The orphanage he arrived at had stood for a long time. Children of all ages were inside. But the creature that was about to enter was not a child, no matter how much it looked like one. It was evil incarnated.
Pinhead placed his son in front on the door. He reached down and moved the black blanket from out of the infants face. The child looked up at its father. Yellow eyes stared back at Pinhead, revealing its unholy nature.
Pinhead stroked the infant's cheek. "We will be reunited, my son. I shall watch over you. Though you may live among the humans, you never will be one. Until we meet again."
Pinhead closed the Box and vanished in a flash of light. The infant fell asleep shortly after its father's departure. The next morning it would be taken in with the other children. No one would know what evil they would be allowing to enter their home.
