After a very long and emotionally draining day, Cora found herself stumbling into her apartment in the evening. She had given her statement to the police. The child was wrapped in a plastic bag, Cora was a strong swimmer and she showed her swim instructor license to prove it. She took off the plastic bag when the child was out of harm's way. She didn't mention that she had taken a picture of the young woman on the ledge. Cora knew technology these days. Technology would prove to the police that she was lying. The picture would be destroyed. Absently, she locked the door behind her and grabbed her bottle of vodka and a clear glass. What a fool, she couldn't get drunk no matter how much she drank. Still, she poured herself a drink and sat down heavily on the couch, swishing it around as she stared off into the shadows. Something had sparked in her today. She didn't know what, but she felt it when she was close to a breaking point seeing that little infant about to die right before her eyes. If what everyone was telling her was true, and she was capable of doing such things, she could only fathom what would happen if she let herself fall into the wrong hands. Though she saved a life, Cora sensed she could also destroy hundreds with the power that was locked inside of her. She felt it for a moment, but she knew what she was capable of... Best to go with these strangers then wait for the dark ones to come collect her. ​

​

"They come to take me away, aha." The Russian downed the alcohol in one gulp and slammed the glass on the coffee table. Maybe she was crazy after all. Having no energy to move any more, Cora took the afghan that was draped across her blue couch and pulled it on her, curling up in the darkness and drifted off into a fitful sleep. Tomorrow, she was planning to leave the almost perfect world she built behind. ​

​

Lauren had not gone on the recruiting mission, but heard from the others it didn't do so well. She wondered if they had attempted to use confusion to get them. She shrugged and went to bed in the hotel trying to not think about Alice.​

​

Adam ate food, got a couple things sorted out, mentally trained with Semyaza for a bit before he woke up to check messages on his phone to see none. Then he fell back asleep for the rest of the night.​

​

After that little scene earlier Logan was glad to be at a hotel instead of there. A little kid, his mind still couldn't get over that little fact. Though there was little that they could do about it now. Odds were that they would end up trying again tomorrow. Hopefully it would go better than it did last time. With that thought in his head, he went to take a shower and then went to sleep.​

 

​

A sigh escaped from the lips of William as he slowed down as he ran and reached a calm walk soon after. He glanced over his shoulder and let out another sigh as he continued walking forward "What utter garbage" William muttered closing his eyes "What kind of explanation was that? satan? damn it...they made me run off and use that technique that I despise so greatly" William grumbled quietly to himself as he head home towards his place.

Up the apartment he opened up the door and walked in, tossing the backpack he held with him on a chair nearby. The room he dwelled in was hard to get especially with his income and age appearance. With such a horrid day, William took a shower and head of to bed with a groan. He laid on the bed, staring up at the ceiling of his room, his mind still wandering and sleep being a hard thing to gain.

"....why does such a tale still roam in my fucking mind..." William muttered to himself as he raised a hand and stared up at it. "The ways of the world...hmm it has been strange and weird, but for a bunch of kids running around saving the world? nonsense" William grumbled. No matter how hard he tried he couldn't stop thinking about the group, but eventually sleep managed to affect him and the day had finally passed for him. It would be a mere unimportant event he wouldn't have to deal with.

 

Samuel Riviera
DAY: 52 - 5/5 | DATE: November 12th, 2013 [Tuesday] | LOCATION: Obsidian Palace in Hell

She chocked back a sob. It felt so comforting to have his arms around her for the first time in what felt like forever. She sniffled and pulled her arms in close between their bodies. ❝ You stupid brute. You can't let this be a weakness. ❞ She lifted her chin and smiled up at him with tear - filled eyes. ❝ I'm glad you're okay. When you disappeared ... ❞ she trailed off.

Hana turned her head the other way, spotting the other girl in the room. She swallowed a lump in her throat and regretfully pulled away from Sam. ❝ Alice, ❞ she started, ❝ I'm sorry for that. I know you weren't exactly prepared for it ... and it's probably really awkward. ❞ She cleared her throat and rose to her feet, holding Sam's hand. She took a shaky deep breath. ❝ We need to get out of here. They'll probably look for us in here. ❞ It wasn't far from Harbonah's room and it wasn't occupied by anyone. They would search these rooms. She bit down on her bottom lip. Hana looked back to Sam. ❝ They'll know we're together. ❞

"I'll deal with that when the time comes. Right now, we have to get you and your friend out of here." Frantically, he tried to figure out what he could do. Nothing he could think of would work. They could try hiding out, but there weren't that many places they could hide. No way was he going to try to suggest they hide in the dungeons either. That place looked very unpleasant. "Do you have any ideas?"

Hana shook her head in disappointment. There really didn't seem to be any way out of here and they were wasting time. ❝ No. There's not anything I can come up with. The only way out is through one of the Dark Angels' mist portals and I don't see any of them creating one for us. ❞

"I guess that's where I come in." The angel casually said.

"What?"

"Since I am one of the Dark Angels, I can create those mist portals."

"You can?"

"Yes. However, it will require a significant amount of energy, and in your current state, you may be passed out for a couple of days. But, considering you'll be getting her out of here, you should be fine with these terms. Are you?" The dark angel posed the question almost as if he were mocking Sam.

"Fine, whatever. Just do it." Sam really was willing to do anything to get her out of there. As long as it meant she was safe. "Alright, I can help with that, but we need to get to my room." Taking both Hana and the stranger, Alice, by the hands, he dragged them both over to his room. Since the flames weren't spreading to his room, it would still be safe. Hopefully the smoke in the hallway would provide them enough cover.

Once they got to his room, he motioned for them to go towards the center as he shut the door. "Alright, for this next part, I'm gonna let Abaddon take over, so I won't be able to see you off. Just know that I still love you, Hana."

❝ Don't be ridiculous. You're coming with. There's no way I'm just leaving you behind. ❞

"I'm sorry, but this is how things are-" He suddenly stopped mid-sentence before running his hand through his hair, slicking it back somewhat. "Sorry to stop this pathetic display of affection, Xathanael, but I'd really prefer it if he stayed here. Besides, when the time comes, you'll have someone on the inside to back you up."

She wiped a few rogue tears on the sleeve of her shirt and looked up into Samuel's eyes. ❝ Abaddon. He can't stay here. ❞ Her lip trembled but her voice was unwavering. ❝ They'll know he helped us. This isn't just about emotions. Logically, he's going to be the first person they point fingers at. ❞

"Have you ever known me to be someone who goes down without a fight?" A wicked smile crossed his face. "I'm honestly disappointed that you'd think I can't handle myself or this moron of a host."

Hana flicked him in the chest. ❝ Don't talk stupid. You know I'd never doubt your abilities to win in a fight. However, Sam is still human and they have already successfully exploited his mortal weaknesses to their advantage. I don't know what Danel's game is, but if he hadn't let us go then Sam probably would have ended up giving into this - this succubus he foolishly mistook me for. We can't always protect our humans. ❞

"Hmm, I suppose you have a fair point on that regard. This dumbass seriously considered it too. Honestly, I can't begin to fathom human hearts." Mist began to rise around their feet. "I can tell you won't give up on this issue, so fine. If it'll shut you up, we'll go too. Training will be that much more difficult now without free access to their training room, but I can make due." The mist rose even further up. "Oh, and just so you know, I have no idea where we're going to end up, so have fun lugging this moron around for a couple of days."

A faint smile crossed her lips and she nodded at him, pleased. ❝ Don't you know? I just love surprises and dragging around giant morons. Those make up my two favorite things. ❞ She gave him a playful nudge to the shoulder as the mist crept up around them. Hana locked arms with Alice and grabbed Samuel by the hand. ❝ Let's go before anything else happens please. And Abaddon, ❞ she looked up at him with a sad smile, ❝ Thank you. And I just wanted to say I'm sorry. I don't think I ever got to tell you that after what happened last time. ❞ She pulled the pair of them close to her. ❝ I've never traveled this way before. Try not to pass out until we've made it to the other side. ❞

"Ugh, I hate how human you've become." The mist fully enveloped them, the sight of his room completely disappearing.

When the mist lifted, the sight of an unfamiliar surrounding greeted them. Abaddon relinquished his control over Sam's body and after a few moments passed, he fell over on to the floor. The strain of using the portal assaulted him and he passed out.​

​

Ugh, I hate how human you've become. It was the last thing Abaddon said to her before they left Hell. It was still ringing in her ears, even the next morning. She sat at the fire she made the night before and looked over to Alice's sleeping figure. Hana was exhausted and she was pretty sure her body temperature had gone up. At this rate, she would be as bad as before in no time, but someone needed to stay watch. Samuel wouldn't be waking up any time soon and Alice was just a human. She coughed and curled up on the ground, beside Samuel's body. It wouldn't take long for her to become as delirious as before, she could only hope he would be awake by then. She sighed and shut her eyes. Me too. Me too. Humans had so many more weaknesses. They were fragile creatures in every possible way. Even the strongest could be broken.​

Morning light filtered through her half - lidded eyes. The best she could do was hope that nothing found them before the others. They were severely outmatched no matter what came along -- a human, an unconscious Dark Angel, and a sick Angel of Light stood no chance against anything. Even wild animals could potentially pose a threat. They needed shelter. It was too exposed out here in the woods, but traveling anywhere wasn't going to happen. Sam was heavy, like, really heavy. It took all of she and Alice's effort to drag him to this secluded spot. At least now they just looked like campers, sort of. Hana had no idea where they were, other than near a coastline. It could literally be any coast line; there were a lot of them in the world.​

​

Their best bet was to stay put and wait for the others. The compass would guide them here. It would just take some time. Hopefully they weren't in the middle of recruiting anyone. That would slow the others down and mean they had to spend more time on this coastline -- time they didn't have. The Dark Angels or their demon assistants could show up at any possible second.​

​

She blocked out the morning light with her arm and sighed at the headache pounding in her skull. Hana hadn't managed to heal any of their wounds either. She was too tired. That would require energy, energy she didn't have. Raziel, please come find us soon. Her hands folded together and through the pain of the migraine and the heat of the fever, she decided it best to send a prayer, something she hadn't done in quite some time.​

​

Father, I know you answer those who listen. I'm listening now. I know you are too. There is no way you would just be completely ignoring everything that is going on. You don't turn a blind eye. My belief in you has not wavered after all this time apart and I wish to ask forgiveness for laying with the human, Samuel Riviera. I have given into one of the sinful acts we informed the mortals never to do and now I am being punished. I am not mad. I know what I have done to deserve this abomination within me. Please give me the strength to tell Samuel and Abaddon of it when they wake, for I fear, I do not have the courage to share with them what I know. I would also like to thank you Father, for all that you have done to help us so far. If it was not your will, then none of these things would have happened. Even with the few unfortunate losses we have received, a great start has joined us in our hopes to protect Paradise. Thank you for helping us. Please, let Raziel hear my voice. Let him know where we are and help protect us until they arrive, so that we may protect you and everyone else. Thank you forever.​

​

The fire crackled in front of her and everything felt strangely peaceful. A huge weight felt as if it had been lifted from her shoulders and she could breath easier. She wrapped Samuel's arms around her body and scooted closer to the flames. Even with the fever, she still managed to get the chills. It was always the oddest experience. She needed to protect the humans with everything she had left in her. It was difficult to focus and it made the migraine intensify tenfold, but when she opened her eyes, the familiar shimmering light of a barrier domed above them. It wasn't big, but it would provide them with the needed protection necessary to keep both Alice and Samuel alive until the others arrived. Thank you Father. A tear streaked down her face and she shut her eyes once more.​

​

ALL of his movements were slow, deliberate; Angels didn't exactly need sleep, and if he channeled his energy the right way, Leo didn't either. He hadn't slept since the night before, but he was working.​

​

As far as recruiting went, the others could handle that; he was simply there for insurance, in case anything went wrong. Other than that, he was focused on the most important; he finally found Leviathan – or at least narrowed down his location to an exact area. Releasing a slow breath, Leo rose on his toe to stand straight up, and then gracefully flipped off the bo staff. It flew into the air, shrinking into a more compact form and he slipped it into a bag after catching it.​

​

Raziel, please come find us soon.​

​

He suddenly stood upright and looked around his empty hotel room. Xathanael was calling for him from . . . A place that wasn't Hell. Of course he knew she had been in Hell, but what was he supposed to do? He had to face the cold fact that he was no match for Lucifer, although he would take pleasure in bringing down those snide Dark Angels, regardless of their past. Not to mention, there had been no real point in risking it; if Father had seen fit for Xathanael to live, then so be it. Apparently, he did.​

​

Quickly checking his phone, he tried to feel out Xathanael's Glamour at the same time. It was weak and very distant, but after a few minutes of deep concentration, he grasped at the spider-thin thread and tugged.​

You're not dead. I'll be there as soon as I can be.​

​

Everything really needed to be sorted out. He needed to be in South America as soon as possible, but the kid was a Fallen and Joslyn's compass pointed the way. He could only be in so many places at once. He could always reroute Hay Sun's plane to South America so that she could take care of Hana and Alice. He didn't know about Samuel. That idiot was better off dead, causing so much trouble as he did.​

​

A few moments later, he had Hay Sun's flight heading to the Falken Islands. He sighed.​

​

Footsteps echoed through the now silent training room as Regulus walked in and walked up to the man on the ground fast asleep. "Do get up Alistair, the floor is no place to sleep. Surely you have a room to sleep in...or had it become inadequate for you?" Regulus said lightly kicking Alistair in the side of his torso.

"keh you bastard, when the hell did you gain a sense of humour? I damn well know you saw the result of my room. Damn immature bitch, I mean there really wasn't anything of value for me, but damn...there goes my clothes" Alistair said silently rising up to his feet. "Imma steal some of your clothes, you do have quite the interesting fashion sense after all...whether its intentional or not" Alistair said dusting himself off. "By the way...I'm gonna be scheduling that transplant for an earlier date" Alistair said crossing his arms.

"The arrangements have already been completed so whenever you are set we shall begin, though I will admit I am curious about the sudden change of thought, I thought you chose to wait further? I assume that this was the result of what happened yesterday?" Regulus said placing his hand on the chin of his mask as he thought about what occurred.

"Heh I'll tell ya all about it later on, I already got a lecture about caution from Azrael...damn ******* chose against training as a punishment so I'm itchin for a fight, I assume that was what brought you here after all so come on!" Alistair said with a grin as the blades began to form from his body.

Alistair had jet forward and swung at him but Regulus had reacted in time and rose his hand, intercepting the blade. His feet staggered back a bit, but he held strong and held the shield against the blade. "I see....you've improved" Regulus said as the shield he held up shattered and Alistair staggered back from the force. The invisible shards coiled around the hand of Regulus and immediately with his hand flat, he thrust the hand straight towards Alistair.

Alistair moved to the side, but unfortunately for him he was too slow and the fingers found themselves piercing his shoulder. The very moment the fingers were plunged into his shoulder blade burst out of Alistair's body and pierced the arm of Regulus. Without hesitating, Alistair thrust his hand forward and grasped Regulus by the neck and began to squeeze. It was odd, it was small and slow, but Alistair could feel it, he could feel the energy returning to his body. No...return would be the wrong word.

Regulus could feel his energy slowly depleting as Alistair held his throat. This was not the death corrosion power of Alistair, otherwise his physical body would have been affected. He was in a bad situation and he needed to act quick. He rose his leg and kicked off of Alistair's grasp, the blades in his arm tore through the flesh of his arm as he managed to pull the distance between the two.

The sudden blow to his chest made Alistair stagger back, but he chuckled as he glanced down at his hand "well now thats interesting indeed" Alistair said before rushing forward. Their battle continued on for a while, but in the end they chose to continue later on. With their wounds healed, Alistair found himself dressing quite the interesting fur jacket and gloves that belonged to Regulus. With Regulus back into the operating room, Alistair was off to do as he pleased.

Spoiler: Dream Training: Lesson Number One

Elsie’s eyes fluttered open. She could see nothing but darkness around her, but there was a strange humming in the air. It was peaceful, like she had nothing to be afraid of even though she couldn’t see anything. The girl pushed herself up to a sitting position and glanced around. Her eyes landed on a figure of a beautiful young woman, encircled about in a soft, radiating glow. The young woman looked up and smiled at Elsie, spreading her wings out for Elsie to see. Elsie gasped and scooted back, not sure if this woman was going to harm her.

Spoiler: Dream Training: Lesson Number One

“Fear not, Elsie Malone,” the angel said, beaming at the frightened human. “I am not here to hurt you… I am here to help you.”

“H-Help me?”

The angel nodded her head. “I am Andela, the angel of dawn. You, Elsie, are my vessel. I am you, and you are me. We are one in the same, you and I.”

The twenty-one year old pushed herself to stand and approached her angel. She was so beautiful… Why was she chosen to be the vessel of something like this? “I do not get to choose my vessel.”

Elsie stopped walking with Andela spoke. Oh ducks, she read her mind.

Andela giggled. “It is alright. I am happy to be a part of you. You are happy, kind, and gracious to those you come across… Much like me.” Elsie was about to open her mind to speak, but Andela raised her hand to stop her. “We don’t have much time. There is so much to learn and so much to catch up. Call this training with your angel. Every time you will sleep, you will train with me. Not to worry, your human body will receive the rest it needs. However, you may want to learn from my other brothers and sisters as well. They could give you pointers that I cannot. It has been so long since I have spoken to my host…”

The angel of dawn stared into Elsie’s eyes steadily. The lesson had begun. “In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.” With that, Andela waved her hand in front of her. The dark void suddenly changed into a beautiful meadow full of flowers, butterflies, and blue skies with billowing clouds drifting across. Elsie breathed in amazement and spun around in place, soaking in her surroundings.

“Wonderful, isn’t it?” Andela inquired, watching as Elsie admired the world around her. She came to Elsie and set a hand on her shoulder, bringing the human girl back to awareness. She then gestured to the sky above. “And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness. And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day.” The angel of dawn smiled at Elsie and then gestured to the flowers and plantlike around them. “Light brings life to all living things. It helps the flowers bloom and the trees grows. It can also bring peace unto man and beast.” Andela’s hand on Elsie’s shoulder glowed warmly, filling Elsie with a sense of calmness and happiness. “It can also bring a sense of healing if we allow it.”

“I understand,” Elsie whispered, bringing her hand up and placed it over her heart.

Andela gazed at Elsie for a moment. Elsie thought she understood, but she didn’t. Not yet. “Though we can bring life to all living things, we cannot bring the dead back to life.” A butterfly fluttering before the pair sudden froze and drifted to the ground. Its wings began to curl, not making a movement at all. Elsie watched the poor thing, stooping to look at it. “There must be a balance in the world we live in. If we do not keep this balance, disasters unimaginable will rage and end the world. Thus, once something has died, we must let nature continue its course. Death is tragic, but it is a part of the balance.”

Elsie sighed, suddenly feeling very heavily. This wasn’t a fairy tale like she thought it was at first. This was harsh reality. She glimpsed at Andela, not sure what to make of all of this. Andela nodded in understanding. “Darkness and light must be balanced. Darkness must exist just as much light exists. Behold.” The beautiful fields before Andela and Elsie suddenly wavered and turned into a waste land. Everything was dry and brittle, things were caught aflame, and nothing was alive. “These are the consequences of light outbalancing darkness in nature…”

“It’s… horrible.” Elsie couldn’t think of anyway else to describe it.

“Yes, it is…” Andela looked up to the sun that was hanging above them in the vision, her eyes serious. “Too much of anything is never good; even it is a substance of kindness.”

Suddenly, the dying world disappeared and Elsie was in the void of darkness once more. But Andela was nowhere to be found. “Andela?!” Elsie called out, looking around wildly. Fear and anxiety were beginning to take over Elsie, shutting off any memory of the good feelings she had earlier.

“Without out light, we will surely die.” Andela’s voice echoed all around, but was nowhere to be seen. Elsie suddenly lost her ability to breathe, gasping and clutching at her throat. It was like something was choking her, but she couldn’t see it. “We depend heavily on the light… Shut it all out, and we are doomed.”

Elsie felt lightheaded and fell to her knees, wishing that this would stop. Her head began to throb from lack of oxygen, her nails were digging into her neck, but she could barely feel it.

“Fear and hatred, love and care, they must all be balanced Elsie. If you let fear take over, it will greatly influence everyone else to feel the same. If you feel overjoyed and happy, they will feel it as well but will not be focused on the task at hand. There must be a happy medium."

Elsie was curled on the floor. Her head felt like was going to explode and her lungs ached from having no oxygen enter in.

“Ponder on this. I will always be with you, but it is up to you to understand and learn… Until next time, farewell…

Elsie awoke with a start, inhaling a deep breath of air. She sputtered on it and began to cough, wheezing as she was coming out of shock. What was Andela try to do, kill her? Elsie sat up in bed, trying to take in heavy, deep breaths of air to fill her lungs with much needed oxygen. She saw spots dart across her eyes and blinked rapidly, trying to get a hold of herself. She felt sick to her stomach and very light headed. Some crazy first lesson that was… And it was up to Elsie to make sense of it all on her own.

Feeling a headache coming on, Elsie groaned and massaged her forehead. Today was a new day. The sun was just barely peeking in through the curtains. The girl rubbed at her aching chest, still trying to take in deep even breaths of air. That was some object lesson to show the balance of everything. The girl pushed that out of her head and looked around the room. Now what were they going to do? Recruitment of Will had failed miserably. She wondered if Kai and the others had any luck with Cora. Should they try again with Will? Or should they move on? No, they couldn’t lose any more people to the bad side. So what were they going to do?

‘My brother is coming, the sun I mean. Prepare yourself.’

Elsie groaned. If Andela meant Will… Elsie never wanted to show her face to that guy again.

 

​

A bowl of cereal was poured out and William began to eat the breakfast with a groggy groan. Yesterday's job hunt was not the greatest and sooner or later he would be booted out of this room if he wasn't able to pay for it. His cute charm could only take him so far and he really loathed relying on it. With a sigh he packed up the things he needed into his backpack and placed it on before walking out with a sigh.

His first objective was to find someplace close to him. He did not want to pay for transportation and walking far distances was just a sheer pain in the ass for him. He wanted something that lacked physical labour like maybe a desk job or some sorts, but finding an office that would take him seriously was just insanely difficult for him. With that he had to make do with what he could find.

Luckily the hotel he lived next to was hiring and if anything it was the best spot location-wise for him. He could deal with some of the labour that would be asked of him so William made it his goal to get this job. Passed the automated door, William walked into the lobby and glanced down at the paper he held in his hand "Well now lets see if I can get this job..." William said to himself as he walked on.

​

As a few rays from the morning sun shone into the room via the window, Logan eventually stirred awake. He was getting somewhat antsy waiting for the next time that he would train with Samael. Since the only thing that he was told after their last one was that he failed, he had no idea when he'd be able to prove him from. All he could do now was to just wait. ​

​

Making his way out of the bed and towards the bathroom, he went ahead and got taking a shower out of the way and got dressed. It was likely that they would try again with getting that little kid to tag along with them. While he wasn't necessarily looking forward to that again, he really didn't have any reason to complain. A, doing this would probably be a good thing once everyone regrouped and B, it wasn't like he made any effort to recruit him in the first place. He sighed, maybe he would give it a shot for once. Maybe. ​

​

Now that that was out of the way, he walked out the door and headed towards the lobby. Taking a seat in one of the chairs, he looked around. Seems like he was the only one up or at least in the lobby at the moment. Seeing as how he had some time to kill, he stretch back in the seat before taking another look around, this time something caught his eye. Holding a piece of paper and seemingly looking for something was the kid was yesterday! Oh he had to say that he would attempt to recruit him, didn't he. Unfortunately he could just walk up to the kid, that might start up another scene. No, he needed to be smart about this if he wasn't going to attract any attention to himself.​

​

 

Joslyn Taylor Jones
DAY: 53 - 1/5 | DATE: November 13th, 2013 [Wednesday] | LOCATION: Hotel in Taupo, New Zealand

Joslyn got out of her bed with a yawn as morning light filtered through the slight opening in the curtains. She rubbed her pale fingers against her tired eyes as she shuffled over to the bathroom to brush her teeth.

"Good morning, honey~" The angel greeted as the albino lazily swished the brush around her mouth.

"Good morning~"

"Well, I'm sorry to say that I wasn't able to really think of any ways to recruit the kid overnight."

"That's okay~" The girl swished a bit of water around her mouth before spitting it into the sink. "I couldn't either~" She made her way into the room and put on a change of clothes before heading out to get breakfast. "We can't just leave and go back to the others without him..."

"Exactly. That's the whole reason we split up this group even further. To get another angel. But him being such a little kid complicates things a whole lot." The fallen angel was in serious thought.

"That doesn't mean we can just give up, though." The ghostly teenager pensively placed her fingers on her chin.

"I know that. Man, why does this have to be so hard?" Azazel let out a frustrated sigh. "And even though we have the compass, it may not be the best idea to just show up wherever he is. That'll just make us look even creepier, and we don't want that."

"I hadn't thought about that."

"I think the best we can hope for is that we just randomly run in to him. At least that way, it won't seem like we're following him."

"Okay, and then what?"

"We wing it."

"I was hoping you wouldn't say that. I'm no good with that kind of thing." She said as she nervously scratched the back of her head.

"It's okay, I'll be here to help you out. You've been getting better about talking to people, so with my help, you should be able to do this, no problems."

"You're right." With a sense of confidence she has never had before, she walked out of the elevator and headed for the breakfast area through the lobby. However, the sight of what stood in the lobby instantly dashed her confidence and made her a nervous wreck... again. "I-i-i-i-it's him!"

"Seriously!? Of all the places to find him, he's right here in our hotel!?" The angel couldn't contain her surprise.

"What do I do? What do I do? What do I do?" The girl nervously asked in a rapid-fire manner.

"You gotta calm down first. I was not expecting to find him this quickly."

"Ok, ok." She looked at the boy who stood in the lobby holding a piece of paper. "Ahh, no! I can't calm down! I don't know what to do! I don't know how to deal with this!" The girl continued to panic as thoughts of what to do chaotically danced around her head.

"Oh, this is not gonna be easy."​

LEON[/url] FELT SOMETHING AGAINST HIS CHEEK. IT WAS WARM, VELVETY, AND SOFT. HE REACHED UP FEELING A HAND AGAINST HIS HAIR. HIS BODY ACHED AND HE WAS TWISTED INTO SOME WEIRD POSITION ON AN UNCOMFORTABLE CHAIR. HE HAD THE WORST NIGHTMARE ABOUT HIS FLESH MELTING OFF THE BONES IN HIS HANDS AND THE HAND ON HIS HEAD FELT TOO LARGE TO BELONG TO MALI. HE OPENED HIS TIRED EYES TO AN UNFAMILIAR ROOM. LEON SAT UP, SLIDING OUT FROM UNDER THE ARM, AND HIS HEAD SPUN FOR A GOOD MINUTE. WHEN THINGS BEGAN TO SETTLE, HE STARTED TO GET A GOOD LOOK AROUND.​

​

HE WAS ON A PLANE. THERE WERE THREE OTHER PEOPLE ON THE PLANE WITH HIM AND THEY ALL APPEARED TO BE ASLEEP. THEY WERE THOSE PEOPLE THAT WERE IN HIS HOUSE YESTERDAY. LEON HAD THOUGHT PERHAPS THEY WERE ALL APART OF THE NIGHTMARE HE HAD. HE LOOKED AT THE ASIAN GIRL SITTING BESIDE HIM AND HIS INSIDES KNOTTED UP. SHE WAS SO BEAUTIFUL ASLEEP. HE FELT LIKE HE HAD SEEN THAT SLEEPING FACE BEFORE, BUT HE COULDN'T PLACE IT. LEON REACHED OUT TO STROKE HER FACE, THEN FROZE WITH HIS HAND HANGING IN THE AIR BETWEEN THEM.​

​

THESE PEOPLE WERE IN HIS HOUSE YESTERDAY AND THERE WAS A FIRE AND BLOOD. THEY WERE WITH THAT ALISTAIR MAN AND MALI WAS NOT WITH THEM. HE DROPPED HIS HAND AND STUMBLED TO HIS FEET. HE WAS TRAPPED ON A PLANE WITH MORE OF THOSE PEOPLE LIKE ALISTAIR -- THE ONES THAT CALLED THEMSELVES FALLEN ANGELS. HE FELL ONTO HIS BUTT IN THE AISLE AND GRIPPED THE ARMRESTS TO PULL HIMSELF UP. WHAT WAS HE GOING TO DO? WHAT DID THEY WANT WITH HIM? WHAT IS WRONG WITH THESE PEOPLE? WHY CAN'T I JUST BE LEFT ALONE? HIS EYEBROWS CRINKLED TOGETHER AND A SHARP PAIN SHOT THROUGH HIS HEAD FROM TEMPLE TO TEMPLE.​

​

You are apparently not meant to be left alone. I suppose I shall give these back to you. Make yourself useful.​

​

LEON FELL TO HIS KNEES, GRIPPING HIS FOREHEAD AND MOANED IN PAIN. IMAGES FLASHED THROUGH HIS MIND AND PIECE AFTER PIECE SEEMED TO FALL INTO PLACE. THE LAST FIVE THOUSAND YEARS SEEMED TO COME RUSHING BACK ALL AT ONCE AND HE FELT LIKE HE WAS HIT IN THE HEAD WITH A SEMI - TRUCK. THE MOST RECENT EVENTS CAME LAST -- PARIS, MEXICO, THE AIRPLANE, HIS FALLING, RUSSIA; ALL OF IT. HE OPENED HIS GOLDEN EYES AND LIFTED HIS CHIN TO LOOK AT THE STILL SLEEPING ASIAN GIRL. HIS TEETH WERE GRIT AND HE BIT DOWN ON HIS BOTTOM LIP, FIGHTING THROUGH THE PAIN. THAT GIRL, SHE WAS THE REASON HE FELL. HE WOULD DO ANYTHING TO PROTECT HER, SINCE SHE WAS THE CURRENT HOST FOR URIEL. THAT CARELESS, FIERY, NAIVE GIRL. SHE WAS IMPULSIVE AND RECKLESS. HER HAND! SHE HURT HER HAND YESTERDAY.​

​

HE LUNGED TO HIS FEET AND CLIMBED BACK INTO THE SEAT HE HAD BEEN OCCUPYING. LEON VAGUELY REMEMBERED ATTEMPTING TO HEAL IT YESTERDAY IN HIS WEAKENED STATE. THE REDNESS HAD GONE DOWN, BUT HE WAS SO OUT OF IT THE DAY BEFORE THAT HE WASN'T SURE IF HE HAD ACTUALLY SUCCESSFULLY HEALED HER. HE HOPED SO! SHE WAS TOO PERFECT AND BEAUTIFUL AND WONDERFUL NOT TO STAY THAT WAY. HE WOULDN'T ALLOW FOR ANY SORT OF IMPERFECTIONS ON URIEL'S HOST -- NO WAY, NO HOW! LEON WRAPPED HIS ARMS AROUND HER, PULLING HAY SUN INTO A TIGHT EMBRACE. HE BURIED HIS FACE IN HER BLACK HAIR AND BREATHED IN HER SCENT. HE DIDN'T CARE IF SHE GOT ANGRY OR TRIED TO SET HIM ON FIRE. HE MISSED HER AND IT HAD BEEN TOO LONG SINCE HE LAST SAW HER. NOW THEY COULD BE TOGETHER FOREVER AGAIN!​

​

"URIEL. HAY SUN. PURIEL. HAY SUN WHITE. OH, HOW GOOD IT FEELS TO KNOW THOSE NAMES AGAIN." HE HUGGED HER TIGHTER AND A TEAR RAN DOWN HIS FACE. HE WISHED THESE STUPID ARMRESTS WEREN'T IN THE WAY. WELL HEY, WHO'S TO STOP HIM FROM JUST PULLING HER ONTO HIS LAP? NO ONE THAT'S WHO! HE LOWERED HIS ARMS, WRAPPING THEM AROUND HER WAIST, AND DRAGGED HAY SUN ONTO HIS LAP. "I'VE MISSED YOU SO MUCH. DID YOU MISS ME? YOU MUST HAVE BEEN WORRIED ABOUT ME, COMING ALL THAT WAY TO FIND ME." HE CHIRPED. THERE WAS A SMUG GRIN ON HIS FACE. "I KNEW YOU WOULD COME AROUND. YOU COULD ONLY PRETEND TO HATE ME FOR SO LONG -- JUST LIKE URIEL. URIEL ALWAYS LIKED TO PRETEND I WAS A BOTHER, BUT URIEL LOVES ME AND I LOVE URIEL AND I LOVE YOU HAY SUN!" HE KISSED THE TOP OF HER HEAD AND SIGHED HEAVILY, WIPING THE FEW STRAY TEARS OFF ON HIS SHOULDER.​

Her sleep might have been one of the least-fitful she's had in days – weeks, even. Being woken up, however, was way less pleasant than sleeping. She had been hovering in consciousness for a while, but something kept tugging on her and rousing her awake, and it was making her all kinds of grumpy.

A muffled, excited voice was talking near her ear. ❝. . . all that way . . . miss me? . . . liked to pretend I was a bother . . .❞

What the fuck are you talking about . . . she thought groggily. You are a bother. Get off of me you weirdo . . .

The voice kept stupidly, happily rambling on. ❝. . . love you Hay Sun!❞

And then she felt something press against her forehead and then her pale eyes snapped open with . . . panic? With a body that was starting to glow dangerously hot, she instantly wrenched herself out of the ( killer ) hold that was around her and pointed a loaded finger-gun at . . . Pretty Boy? Teal fire was leaking slightly out of her two pointed fingertips at him as she tried to think straight about what was happening.

After long moments of contemplation ( and leaking fire ), she narrowed her eyes at him. ❝Okay, first of all Pretty Boy, just because you almost died and that would have completely sucked ass, but you're here now and safe, doesn't mean you can just attach yourself to me and t - touch me like that, got it? And what the hell makes you think – ❞ She stopped up short.

❝I've missed you so much. Did you miss me? You must have been worried about me, coming all that way to find me.❞

She dropped her good hand by her side and stared at him. All of her flames ( which were dangerously close to not only incinerating Pretty Boy, but the rest of the jet as well ) snuffed out as she realized that he was talking . . . differently. Like he actually knew who she was and didn't treat her like some sort of dangerous stranger. She didn't want to jump the gun on the idea, but fuck all if that wasn't what she wished for.

❝You . . . remember?❞ she asked with a raised eyebrow, leaning in slightly.​

 

Joslyn Taylor Jones​

DAY: 53 - 2/5 | DATE: November 13th, 2013 [Wednesday] | LOCATION: Hotel in Taupo, New Zealand​

​

"Oh man, what do I do, what do I do, what do I do?" Joslyn was still having a panic attack over to the side as she tried to think of how to approach the newly found fallen without causing him any alarm. Unfortunately, her panicked mind is preventing her from coming up with any sort of plan.​

​

"Ok, honey, we need to calm down right now." The angel tried to calm down the hysterical teenager.​

​

"Ah, but if we mess it all up, then he'll try to call for his mom again and then it'll be super awkward and then people around us will think we are creeps and then they'll all just stare daggers at us and then we'll have to run again because we need to make it look like we're not being creepy and all of this really stressful stuff and I don't want to deal with that." By the time she had gotten her entire rapid-fire speech out there, she had been crouching down, hugging her knees.​

​

"Honey, I really need you to calm down for a second." The irritated fallen angel continued in her useless attempts at calming her down.​

​

"Ah, what to do, what do I do, what can I do?"​

​

"Heeeeeeeeeeeeyyyy~!! I need you to calm down for a few seconds to hear me out right now!!" Fed up with her continued hysteria, Azazel shouted for the girl to calm down. The albino jumped at the sudden rise in her voice. "I'm sorry I had to raise my voice there, but you were so flustered that I had to stop you from acting like that somehow."​

​

"I-I'm sorry." The girl remained crouched, still hugging her knees.​

​

"It's alright. Now that you're calmed down, I think I have a way to talk to him."​

​

"Really? What is it?" The teenager asked curiously.​

​

"It's simple: We go up to him, and apologize for the other day."​

​

"Are you sure it'll work?"​

​

"There's only one way to find out." Nervously, the girl stood up, and after taking a few deep breaths, she walked up to the little boy standing in the lobby.​

​

"Uh... H-h-hey there. Ummm... S-so," She shyly twiddled her fingers around as she avoided making eye contact with him. "I, uh, w-wanted to a-apologize for t-th-the other d-day... And a-all of th-that craziness..." Standing there, thinking about the possibility of him calling out for his mom again made her tense up. "S-s-s-so p-pl-ple-please forgive u-u-u-us!"​

 

​

HAY[/url] SUN BROKE FREE AND TURNED ON HIM. LEON SCOWLED AT THE GIRL AS SHE BECAME WARM TO THE TOUCH AND POINTED AT HIM WITH METAPHORICAL GUNS LOADED. TEAL FLAMES WERE LEAKING OUT OF THE TIPS OF HER FINGERS AND HE JUST SHOOK HIS HEAD DISMISSIVELY. SILLY GIRL. SHE WAS ALWAYS SO QUICK TO THE DRAW. SHE NARROWED HER BLUE - EYED GAZE AT HIM AND HER SHARP TONGUE WAS READY TO GIVE HIM A LASHING. OH HOW HE MISSED THAT. "Okay, first of all Pretty Boy, just because you almost died and that would have completely sucked ass, but you're here now and safe, doesn't mean you can just attach yourself to me and t - touch me like that, got it? And what the hell makes you think – " SHE STOPPED MID - SENTENCE.​

​

LEON RAISED A CURIOUS BROW, WONDERING WHY SHE STOPPED. HER HAND FELL TO HER SIDE AND THE FLAMES WENT OUT. THAT WAS PLEASANTLY COMFORTING. AS MUCH AS HE WAS WILLING TO TAKE A BLAST OF URIEL'S FLAMES TO THE FACE IN ORDER TO BE WITH THE FELLOW ARCHANGEL, HE GREATLY PREFERRED IT WHEN THAT WASN'T NECESSARY. HAY SUN'S EXPRESSION SEEMED TO CHANGE AND SHE DIDN'T LOOK SO RILED UP ANYMORE. A SMALL SMILE SPREAD ON HIS LIPS AND THE OTHER GIRL LOOKED ALMOST HOPEFUL -- NOT THAT SHE WOULD EVER ADMIT IT. "You . . . remember?" SHE FINALLY ASKED WITH A RAISED EYEBROW. HAY SUN LEANED IN SLIGHTLY AND IT WOULDN'T HAVE BEEN NOTICEABLE TO ANYONE ELSE, BUT THIS WAS ARIEL AND HE NOTICED EVERYTHING SHE DID.​

​

HE NODDED HIS HEAD UP AND DOWN. THE GRIN ON HIS FACE WIDENED AND HE SCOOTED CLOSER. LEON PULLED HAY SUN INTO ANOTHER HUG, BUT RELEASED HER ALMOST AS FAST AS HE GRABBED HER. "I DO. I WAS ABOUT A HALF SECOND AWAY FROM JUST JUMPING OFF THE PLANE OR SOMETHING WHEN GABRIEL RETURNED MY MEMORIES. APPARENTLY THEY FEEL I'M BETTER OFF THIS WAY. ISN'T THAT GREAT? IT WOULD HAVE BEEN REALLY SAD IF I DIDN'T REMEMBER HOW MUCH YOU MEANT TO ME. I ALREADY DIDN'T FEEL RIGHT WHEN YOU WERE AT MY FLAT, WHICH PROBABLY ISN'T REALLY MY FLAT SINCE MALI GUIDED ME THERE AND TEMELUCHAS WAS WAITING FOR US AT THE DOOR. HUH ... ANYWAY, YOU KEEP GETTING ON MY CASE ABOUT TOUCHING YOU, BUT I CLEARLY REMEMBER WAKING UP TO YOU BEING ALL OVER ME. LIKE ARCHANGEL LIKE HUMAN. YOU CAN PRETEND, BUT I KNOW THE TRUTH." HE TAPPED HER LIGHTLY ON THE NOSE WITH THE TIP OF HIS FINGER AND PATTED HER ON THE CHEEK.​

​

"THIS IS REALLY GREAT. I MEAN, I MISS MY WINGS, BUT NOW WE CAN BE TOGETHER FOREVER. WE DON'T HAVE TO BE SEPARATED ANYMORE! IT WAS SO LONELY UP THERE WITHOUT YOU URIEL. THIS IS BETTER. I CAN HELP WITH THE WHOLE RECRUITING THING AND HELP ALL OF YOU TRAIN AND YOU SHOULD REALLY BE KEEPING UP WITH YOUR STUDIES. JUST BECAUSE YOU WERE RIPPED AWAY FROM SCHOOL TO SAVE THE WORLD DOESN'T MEAN YOU SHOULD GET STUPID. I'LL TUTOR YOU WHILE WE TRAVEL! THEN WHEN WE'RE DONE SAVING THE WORLD, IT'S RIGHT BACK TO THE ACADEMY FOR YOU MISSY. YOU NEED A PROPER EDUCATION." HE NODDED HIS HEAD ONCE, LOOKING SURE OF HIMSELF AND THEN TOOK HAY SUN BY THE GOOD HAND.​

​

"THEN WHEN YOU GRADUATE, WE CAN BE TOGETHER AND IT WON'T MAKE THINGS UNCOMFORTABLE FOR YOUR DAD. HE'S A REALLY GREAT MAN BY THE WAY. I REMEMBERED THE TEA SHOP EVEN AFTER I LOST MY MEMORIES. I VISITED HIM ONCE RIGHT BEFORE I STARTED TO GET SICK. WE HAD A NICE LONG TALK ABOUT YOU, GRANTED, I DIDN'T REMEMBER YOU AT THE TIME. HE REALLY CARES ABOUT YOU. I'LL HAVE TO FIND A HUMAN JOB TOO. I CAN'T ASK FOR HIS BLESSING WITHOUT BEING ABLE TO PROVIDE FOR YOU! BUT FIRST WE SAVE THE WORLD. WHERE ARE WE HEADED ANYWAY? WE CAN START LESSONS ON THE WAY THERE. I KIND OF HAVE A RUNNING KNOWLEDGE OF ALL THE WORLD'S HISTORY IN MY HEAD. MAYBE AFTER I TEACH YOU, WE CAN DO THAT THING HUMANS DO WHERE YOU PRETEND TO BE THE TEACHER AND I GET CALLED TO THE DESK AFTER CLASS AND THEN THE HUMANS GET NAKED FOR WHATEVER REASON? THAT SEEMS FUN. WHAT IS THAT ANYWAY? THAT JUST DOESN'T SEEM LIKE THE RIGHT WAY TO TEACH SOMEONE ..."​

​

 

​

His focus was solely on the piece of paper before him and he paid little heed to the surroundings around him. Maybe if he was paying attention he would have been able to at least have noticed the familiar faces nearby, but alas in the end this was not the case. The sudden nervous and familiar voice immediately made the boy jump as he turned and faced her in shock. He took a step backwards about to get the hell out of there and was about to yell at the girl, but he held back as he listened to her speak on.

As he heard her stuttering voice continue on and talk, William began to slowly calm down. He still saw her as some crazy woman, but the fact that she apologies was something so he wouldn't hold anything against her. Rubbing his temples, William shook his head and let out an exasperated sigh "No, no...its fine..." William said opening his red eyes once more as he stared up at the girl with his arms crossed.

"If its not rude, may I ask why you are so nervous? I mean I've seen many nervous people...but nothing like you" William said has his eyes widened before closing his eyes and rubbed his temples once more "Er...no offence or anything" William said as he opened his eyes and rose his hand. "but still...You must learn the true meaning of courage...only then will you be able to go forth and grasp it!" William said enthusiastically as he clenched his fist.

It was done. Cora had packed what she could, put whatever she couldn't take with her in storage, and had pawned off the rest of what she had to help her with travels and expenses. She had a feeling it was going to be costly. On top of all of that, she had to call the swimming pool and tell the staff that she would be no longer holding classes. She told them how very sorry she was, but she had an emergency to deal with. And again, she had to call her dance studio to tell them the same thing. She would have to forfeit her part as the Sugar Plum Fairy and hand it over to her understudy. No one was happy to see her go, but Cora knew that she couldn't stay around. If she was capable of such power as she had witnessed yesterday, she did not want to put anyone she cared about in harms way. She still had her apartment though, hearing that they were going to stay in West Port for a while. She was at a coffee shop now with Iris and Henrik, drinking her hot chocolate slowly.​

​

​

"You zay friends of yours had accident yesterday? How zad." Cora set down her mug and smiled at the two of them. "I vish nothing but best health for them. If you vish, I have empty apartment. Zave money than staying at hotel, no? " She waved with one hand and then took her mug in her hands once more. "Adam told you vhat happened to me yesterday, yeah? Very grateful for patience you have had vith me."​

​

Adam knew he had to go in and visit the two in the hospital. Other than the fact he would be updating them on Cora, but he seriously doubted any of the others in the ground would have the care enough to actually go and visit Brandon and Kai. When he got up he ate breakfast and then when it was finally visiting hours he headed over to the hospital.​

​

He decided to visit Brandon first, he decided instead of getting him flowers or anything he would just bring over a tennis ball. It was the most effort he was going to actually put into something anyway. When he went into the room he walked straight towards the bed, where Brandon was already awake.​

​

"Hey Brandon. Hope you are doing well. I brought you a ball. Don't go crazy." he placed the ball on the side table and turned and noticed there was another person in the room and he jumped in surprise, "Bloody hell... oh. I didn't... huh. Who is this, or rather who are you?"​
