In Heaven, the first Angels gathered to behold the creation of Eden. Among them, Raguel watched tensely whilst looking into the large glass sphere as God worked tirelessly in building this second world. They observed the spectacle of the big bang in awe. What followed was a rush of fire, rock and electricity. Raguel wondered if this was how Heaven was created. If they were to witness the same process that lead to his people coming into being. Such a thing was a deep honour to witness. Before long, a solar system had been created. In its centre, a mass of rock spun. Its shape shifted and grew as the gravity around it pressured its form into a sphere. Then the next miracle came. Water. And with it, an abundance of new flora which covered its surface. Microscopic organisms came next, breeding a diverse ecosystem that ran purely on survival instinct. No thoughts, no emotions, no souls yet. Just live, eat, breathe, breed and sleep. These organisms multiplied rapidly, and over time they adapted to survive in their world. Witnessing this, Raguel realised that this wasn't just a recreation of Heaven and Angels. Not merely just an adaptation of it, either. This was something wholly new and special. The life that grew and changed before his eyes wasn't being moulded so strictly by God's hand as Angels had been. Rather, the new life and even the new world itself was being allowed to flourish and evolve mostly on its own, with only its surrounding environments and God's occasional help to guide it along. To the other Angels, this seemed utterly chaotic, and they feared that creatures created on this world would abide by its own order rather than the laws that they regarded so highly. But Raguel was excited by this. This new life would be unpredictable and would have more freedom of will than they had ever known before. Evolution came next. Aquatic life. Insects. Birds. Reptiles. Then, gradually, primates. This was where God stepped in. Content with the evolutionary progress, he plucked some of the basic biological makeup from one of these creatures and mixed it with that of an Angel's biological structure. There was trial and error. Several different species of primates were created until finally, there was a breakthrough. The first human. A male born from one of those primates that had all of the Angelic characteristics, minus the wings. Adam. God called him perfect and separated him from the other primates. He created a garden to be a safe environment for his newest creation to grow in. He chose several Angels to assist in raising the boy. These Angels were ordered to teach Adam to speak and to study his growth. Later, these Angels would be adapted and take on the role of Life Spirits who not only oversaw the lives of Humans, but of everything else that lived in the universe. Death's realm had not yet been created, but in the creation of life and the discovery of souls, Death would soon follow. As Adam grew, it became clear what would be needed next for this species to begin to build. Using the same methods, God set to work, and by the time Adam had learned to walk, the first Human female was born. Heaven celebrated, and the Angels chattered excitedly as they tried to guess what these humans could grow to achieve. The Human pair grew together, and they grew to be close to each other. God ordered that the Angels leave the humans to live their own lives, and reluctantly, the Angels left the world. However, they continued to take it in turns to study and observe the pair from afar. Ensuring their safety at all times. Eagerly awaiting the day that they begin to procreate. But, frustratingly, as the Humans reached maturity, they both remained innocently oblivious to the process of reproduction. They were confused yet curious about the change in their bodies, but they hadn't figured out what it all meant just yet. Raguel's turn to monitor the pair came at last. He'd been keeping up to date on the new world and had been eagerly awaiting the day that he would be given the honour of travelling there and watching them up close. The instructions were clear. Remain unseen at all times, unless the Humans are in imminent danger. Study and note any changes. That was it. It was that simple. So, Raguel couldn't help feeling embarrassed later in the day when he would find himself accidentally standing face to face with the female. He'd been staying at a distance, hovering in the air and noting their every move. Parchment in one hand and a quill in the other as he jotted down a conversation the pair had been having. Lilith, the female, was expressing her frustrations that Adam was almost always near her and for once she just wanted to be on her own. At least for a little while. It would seem that Adam had some separation anxiety as he told her he didn't understand why she could ever want to be alone. At last, Lilith had had enough of the conversation and had marched off through a thicket, leaving Adam to ponder whether he had done something to upset her. Just as Raguel was scribbling away, he lost his grip on his quill and watched as it fell through the leaves of the trees below. "Oh no!" he gasped softly. He glanced at Adam, who looked like he was settling down for a nap. Lilith was somewhere in the forested area, but Raguel felt confident that he knew which direction she'd gone in. He tucked his parchment away. Silently, and being careful not to rustle the branches, he descended into the forest to look for his quill. "Oh, where did it drop?" he huffed under his breath as he moved a small pile of leaves to look underneath. Sighing in frustration, he turned to check a different direction, and then he froze on the spot. Ahead of him, Lilith had done the same, and they stared at each other for a long, tense moment. He opened his mouth to say something, but she had beaten him to it as she jogged over excitedly with a wide grin. "Hello Angel!" She said sweetly in the ancient tongue of the time. "I haven't seen an Angel in a long time!" "Um, yes..." he responded nervously. He glanced upward, but if God or any other Angel knew he'd messed up, they were being awfully quiet about it. Perhaps he'd gotten lucky, and no one was watching? "I'm sorry, I must not linger. You must return to Adam," he said hurriedly and began to back away. "But why must I?" she asked, in the same innocent and curious manner as she jogged after him. "I am always with him. Can't I talk to you? For just a little while?" "Um-..." Raguel hesitated. He'd been about to say no. To apologise again and to emphasise that she needed to go back to Adam. But her bright, inquisitive eyes captivated him. He'd never dreamed he'd have the chance to see these humans this close! And now that he was, and had apparently not been caught yet, he wondered if he could use this opportunity to really get to know these beings. Or at least, Lilith. He didn't want to risk getting caught by talking to them both, after all. This was what he told himself at the time, but later he would realise that he had been infatuated with Lilith from the start and had wanted her to himself. "Yes, alright," he answered her, and then he quickly held a finger to his lips as she looked as if she would squeal from excitement. "But you cannot tell Adam or anyone else. This is our secret." "Secret?" "Something that just you and me know," Raguel explained. "Do you promise not to tell anyone?" Lilith looked unsure for a moment and looked in the general direction of Adam. For a moment, he feared that she would refuse to keep a secret from him, but then she turned to him with that same innocent smile and nodded. "Alright, I promise. Our secret," she beamed. "What is your name, Angel?" "Raguel." He told her as his shoulders relaxed in relief. "I'm Lilith." She told him, and he grinned. "I know your name, Lilith," he told her. "You do? Is it because you are an Angel?" "I-uh- Y-yes. That's right. Because I'm an Angel." He lied. It had been his first lie, and it had felt odd. He hadn't realised that he could do that before. Lilith bounced on her feet happily as she moved around him to look at his wings. "We don't have these." "Because you are Human," Raguel said and then jumped a little at feeling her hand on his feathers. He watched her as she ran her hand along his wing. The fascination and awe in her face was so endearing to him. "Human..." Lilith repeated the word. "Why?" She turned her head to look at him. Her hand still on his wing. "That's... just how you were born." He tried to explain. "Like I was born an Angel." Born. A simplification of how he came into being, but he supposed in a way it was correct. "And when you have children, they will be human, too." "Children," she repeated and glanced off to one side. "With Adam?" "Of course." "I don't know." She shook her head. "I don't know how." "You will." He reassured her gently. "When the time is right, you will both just... know." She looked thoughtful as she stared at the ground. Her long black hair cascaded over her shoulders, hiding her breasts. Raguel had to force himself to look at her face. At her beautiful, dark eyes. He felt strange. Then, immediately, he felt guilty and ashamed. "I've lingered too long," he said hurriedly. "I must go." "Wait." Lilith grabbed his hand quickly before he could fly away. "Will you come back? I like to talk to you." "I-I-..." he looked at her uncertainly. But the pleading look she gave him had him totally disarmed. "Alright. I will come back," he conceded. "But remember, you mustn't tell anyone." "I won't tell," she said, smiling as she let go of his hand. Even as she did, he found himself reluctant to let hers go. Tearing himself away from her, he took off to fly back to Heaven. He would need to report his Quill lost.1 point

Sure, I thought he could've been the one Raziel recognised who dragged Lucretia into the main hall with him. Maybe after forcing them to kneel before her, he moved to stand beside her? I'll leave that up to you 😄 I'm just typing up my reply now. Sorry for being gone for so long :)1 point

So, just as a heads up. I kinda have a plan for how the big bad gets taken down. It's going to take a bit of time and for this version of Amelia to get some serious character development first. Plenty of opportunities though for side stories, particularly as there's a literal whole other world of alternative characters that could be entering and causing havoc in the main world. With that in mind, I'm guna keep encounters with the main villain to a minimum. But her appearances will almost always be brutal/devastating. xD In the meantime, she'll mostly be sending her loyal lackeys to do her bidding.1 point

That's just as well cos I've had insomnia for the past few nights and am now ready to pass out lol Anyhoo, before I do fall asleep, this was what I thought of that could fit together with your idea; So, you know how Death and life have their own realms and they preside over their kingdoms? The same thing in a hidden valley on earth and Gaia is the queen. The only mortals on earth who can find her kingdom are the fairies because they're direct descents of the queen. (Your new character could be one) They can reveal themselves to mortals but rarely do so as to not risk The Balance. Very few of her subjects are humanoid as most resemble flora, fauna or fairytale creatures. They're all about all things nature, whether that be the brutal circle of life, evolution to aid the survival of plants and animals alike, helping flowers to bloom, etc. Additionally, the reason Gaia wasn't called to the meeting with Unity is because she's been stuck in a sleeping beauty type sleep for centuries. So her subjects have been guarding her and trying to maintain their duties in her absence. What do you think?1 point

Good to know that you're ok. Don't worry. I'm not trying to rush our story. Just got a bit worried as I always do sometimes. I tend to overthink things but I try to keep myself grounded. At the very least, I'm glad your only struggles have been general things. Though I hope your landlord isn't an ass. I've had my fair share of terrible landlords.1 point

This is probably the most ridiculous thing ever but I had to pick Sasuke Uchiha as what this new guy is going to look like. I'm still not giving out his name yet as I still need to come up with one that's unique and not a rehash of another name I've already used. I really want this character to exude emo cliche city even though he is going to be a serious opponent against the others.1 point

Just a quick heads up, I'm moving house next weekend so the next two weeks for me are going to be super hectic with a big chunk of it not having any internet at all lol I'll post when I can but I might be inactive for most of that time.1 point

Oh, don't worry! There's no rush! I hope you're having a lovely time with your family 😄 Awesome, I'll give it a little while so we can finish up a few of the stories we've already got going before I start the new idea. Maybe after I have the Spirit Council call the next meeting cos there's a few things they want to address first 😉 But basically for this idea I thought we'd do another portal event but this time its from a more parallel universe to this one. Where everything and everyone is near enough the same but had minor events in their past happen slightly differently which caused a massive change in the timeline in that universe. So, for instance, in the other universe Lucifer didn't disappear and he was the one who found Amelia instead of David. Resulting in Amelia being raised and trained in Hell as one of his best soldiers until she was old enough to be changed into a Devil at which point she murdered him and Damien to take the throne for herself. This of course would affect Carter and Sebastian's story in this other universe as Sebastian would never have been rescued from ADIEU and Carter would likely have wound up being kidnapped and successfully turned by Bryce who had likely 'saved' him from being murdered by Vincent & Theo. But yeah, my general idea was having these 'evil' versions of our good characters stepping into this world and causing some absolute chaos xD1 point

(definitely for sure! I'll type it here) Will had decided to get away from the precinct and drove to the hospital in hopes of visiting Parker. Once he found his room, he stepped in and tensed at the sight of this woman. "What's going on?"1 point

shadowess - May 4, 2021 "For my own good?! Who are you to decide that?!" Rickster snapped. David looked off to one side as he heard Nate. After a moment, he looked back at Ricky and Rickster. "Ricky is right. You might not see it right now, but you will." he said gently. He then placed a hand on Ricky's shoulder. "I'm sorry, Ricky but I'm afraid we have to wrap this up for now, there's somewhere that I'm needed urgently. Say your goodbyes for today and I'll bring you back tomorrow." he said gently while sending a mental message to Nate to hold on a moment as his hands were currently full. Once Ricky would be done saying goodbye, he'd teleport them to the Library. "There are only the couches to sleep on but you should find them to be comfortable enough...I'm sorry, Ricky but I'll be back as soon as I can. We'll discuss your plan when I return and go visit Rickster again tomorrow. Feel free to browse the books. I believe there are a few here and there from Earth..." He'd then teleport to the penthouse, facing Nate. "I got here as soon as I could. What's happened?" --- Sebastian kissed him back then cringed a little himself when the kiss broke, recalling Carter had thrown up not too long ago. He chuckled at Carter's apology. "It's alright. Guess I'll just have to kiss you anywhere other than your mouth for now then." he winked. --- Patience's cheeks turned a little pink at his explanation. "Ah! I see." She chuckled. She stood and faced him. "I can leave you to rest if you want? Now that I know everyone is alright, I suppose there's no reason for me to hang around here." --- Parker stared at Hades after Leo left. He'd mentioned that Leo should've burned the wings that are now on Will but didn't bother to explain why. Apparently deciding there was no point in explaining it. Leo didn't even seem all that bothered about not finding out either. He just seemed eager to leave which Parker could admittedly understand. "I am...so confused..." he muttered. --- Oscar had sent the girls away in cabs, making sure their fares were covered. He'd been walking down the street, hands in his pockets and lost in his thoughts when he heard Leo calling out to him. He came to a dead stop, eyes wide as he stared forward, listening. He bit his lip, holding back tears as he glared hard at the ground. He clenched his fists and didn't move for a couple of minutes as he debated whether or not he really wanted to see Leo right now. Letting out a sigh, he teleported into the mansion with his back to Leo, folding his arms and refusing to look at him. "Talk then." he said coldly. --- In an office building somewhere in Egypt, Michael was staring out of the window with his arms folded. The door opened and a male Angel with dark hair, wearing silver-white armor walked in. "Sir, Rob is here." he said. Michael turned around to look at him, his face as expressionless as ever. "Send him in." The male Angel nodded and walked out. A moment later, Rob knocked on the door before limping into the room. He was covered in cuts, one of his wings bent out of shape and a pair of fang marks on his lower left arm. "S-sir?" he addressed Michael nervously. "Report." Michael said, his eyes burning into Rob's. "W-we tracked the fugitive and his partner to France...We've lost Clemons and Novak, sir..." "You underestimated Nate." Michael said. Rob hesitated before saying. "A-actually sir...Nate wasn't there when we made our move..." Michael rose a brow at Rob. "Three Angels defeated by one vampire?" He asked skeptically. He shook his head a little. "We should keep an eye on that one..." "...We er-...we can't anymore, sir...When Nate found out what had happened he alerted the French authorities...Tom is under lock and key. We can't get anywhere near him." Michael's features didn't budge but there was a subtle glint in his eyes that made Rob shudder fearfully. Rob had known Michael long enough to know when he was angry, even if he never outwardly showed it. "Then what of the other operation?" Rob stiffened a little, nervous to answer. "The plan was going without a hitch...we spiked her drink so she'd get drunk faster. Novak manipulated her thoughts so she'd be stuck ruminating on negative thoughts all night and we followed her to the building where she climbed up like you predicted she would. I was getting ready to literally swoop in and save her..." Michael studied him carefully. "Why do I have a feeling this plan failed as well?" he said and though his voice was monotone, Rob picked up on the agitation. "A cop saw her... He followed her and caught her before she could fall. He took her back to his place..." Michael turned away from Rob and rubbed his chin thoughtfully, trying to keep his composure. "Get yourself cleaned up and move on to the third plan." he ordered then turned his head a little to stare at Rob. "And Robert. Do not fail again." he warned. Robert gulped but nodded and left hurriedly. Denix Vames - May 5, 2021 Ricky turned away. Frowning with tears in his eyes. He nodded at David. "I'll see what I can find that's readable." Nate crossed his arms. Glaring at him but not because of him. "Some little angel bitches tried to kill Tom. I told the police and they have him guarded now. They're going to investigate this case. They have the tools to do it. What I want to know is who's the bigger bitch that's sending these fucking angels after my god damn boyfriend?!" --- Carter laughed. "I guess so." --- James frowned. "Maybe I should leave too. I don't want to be an inconvenience but I really have nowhere to go." --- "You and me both." ,said Will. Hades placed his sword back in its sheath. "I will not take your powers from you. I am only doing this because I can sense a greater. And you are not a threat. But please use the power you have wisely." He nodded at them. "Take care. Both of you." He disappeared. Will raised a brow. "A greater threat?" --- Leo bit his lip before speaking. "I work for the CIA. That's why I wanted you to think that I was dead because of the fact that you'd be in danger too. I'll be making lots of enemies just by working with them. But me and every other politician....Even the president. We're working on a law that would protect people like us. All kinds of creatures. Some of the people who work in the Whitehouse. They're not all human. They understand what it's like to be outcasted. Some have even be in ADIEU!" Tears ran down his cheeks. His voice was starting to break. "I'm sorry, Oscar. I should have told you. I just didn't want you to get hurt. I realize now that I've been pushing everybody way. That I've been isolating myself. That I've broken your heart. And I've scared all of you. I'm sorry. I....You don't have to take me back. We don't have to be together if you're still mad at me. But I still love you." --- Hades appeared in the office building. He shouted, "Clypeus!" (shield) "You cannot fight me. What I want is a conversation. Are these God's orders or are you disobeying your master? Disobeying the potential treaties? Don't think for once second that I wasn't listening. I can read everyone's minds and organize their thoughts in my head." shadowess - May 5, 2021 ((Aahhh shit lol Sorry, this was my bad. I should've been clearer and let you know. The last part with the office was purely expositional. Just something happening in the background to show that Atma's predictions were coming true. For that storyline to work, the other's need to figure out what these Angels are doing before the final confrontation with Michael. 😕 )) Denix Vames - May 5, 2021 (ok ill make sure to keep that in mind when you write a scene like that next time. sorry lol) shadowess - May 5, 2021 (lol No, it's ok. That was my fault, not yours. I should've let you know before you posted. I'm just a little concerned that the group won't have anything to solve with Hades confronting the Angels. Does Hades have any weaknesses they could exploit to get him to back off for a bit?) Denix Vames - May 5, 2021 (i was going to have him become weak because he has the Energy eye. eventually it would make him become. like he's dying. honestly, i just made him into an indestructible being. but since he has some kind of Blood God in him, I can imagine that wolf venom would be a possible weakness. maybe even angel feathers and their weapons since a Blood God is both vamp/demonic) shadowess - May 5, 2021 "What?!" David was shocked to hear the news. He folded his arms and rubbed his chin thoughtfully. "Alright, we'll figure this out." he sighed. "I'll need to inform Patience of this so she and the other Angels in the negotiations are aware...Do you know if they said anything specific or left anything behind that might give away what kind of group they're in? Like a calling card? God, you don't suppose it's The Devine all over again, do you?" David speculated, trying to figure out why Angels would randomly attack Tom. He didn't look forward to telling Patience about this. To Patience, vampires made from her bloodline were like family. She wasn't going to be happy when she found out. She may even get angry or protective. "Oh, and for the sake of letting Patience know, is Tom alright? Would she be able to visit him where he is?" --- Sebastian smiled and kissed his cheek, then slowly moved his kisses down to Carter's neck. Both his hands slipped under Carter's shirt to feel his chest and hips a bit before pulling his shirt off him. He began moving his kisses down from Carter's neck to his collarbone, to his chest while gently pushing Carter to sit back on the couch. --- Patience smiled at James kindly and shook her head a little. "But that's what this place is for. People who are lost and have nowhere else to go. I'm sure Carter and Sebastian won't mind you staying here after what you've done to help them. Here, use this bedroom to rest in. I'll go and let you get some rest. I have my own work to do anyway. If you or the others ever need help though, just call my name. I'll be here as soon as I'm able." She then vanished, leaving James alone in the bedroom. --- "Great...now I'm even more confused than I was a second ago!" Parker rubbed his temples in frustration. "I think I'm actually getting a headache from all this..." he sighed and looked at Will. "Wana go back to bed?" --- Oscar didn't move or speak while Leo was talking. He continued looking away from him, not turning around even as his own tears started to fall. When Leo was finished speaking, Oscar gave away that he was crying by sniffing. Then he spoke, his own voice broken and angry. "How could you do that to me?" He turned and faced him, his tearful eyes glaring into Leo's. "You know what it's like to lose someone you love. You know that I've lost someone before too. How could you make me think that I'd lost you too? I gave my heart to you. I TRUSTED YOU! I wouldn't have cared if you'd joined the CIA. I'd have supported you! I know you're strong and I trust that you can handle yourself, why couldn't you do the same for me?!" He folded his arms again, turning his head and looking away as he tried to calm down a bit. "I love you, Leo..." he said finally. "But I don't know if I can trust you after that..." he said honestly. He desperately wanted to hold Leo in his arms again but he was too hurt. --- (Cool, I can work with that.) Michael rose a brow at Hades. "Disobeying? I am proving that the Devils cannot be trusted as it would seem Heaven has forgotten this very basic rule." The energy in Hades stirred when it sensed Michael and listened in carefully. "Uh...kiddo? I have a bad feeling about this." it warned. Michael snapped his fingers. "Of course, for our plan to work, we cannot allow you to return to your friends." A couple of Angelic guards entered the room. One holding a pair of handcuffs, the other holding some kind of dart gun. "But don't worry. We won't bring harm to you. You will be judged fairly, as the others will. If you are innocent you will have nothing to fear and we will let you go. If found guilty, I'm sure the ADIEU will find someone like you quite fascinating." Michael then gave off a strong aura that surrounded Hades, making him feel as if the gravity around him was increasing. Pulling him to the floor. "I would advise that you don't fight. It'll only hurt if you do." Denix Vames - May 5, 2021 "There were handcuffs and their bodies but that was it. Tom is fine. He's in a room that keeps angels from entering. It's in the police department. She can visit but she need to identify herself as will any visitor. Whether or not, they're friend or foe is up to the cops." The ceiling suddenly fell apart when Nate started to glow. He gripped his own arms. "But I swear that when I see more of those angelic fucks! I'm going to rip them apart! Limb from fucking limb until they start SCREAMING!" --- Carter started moaning at his touch. Leaning back as he let Sebastian's kisses overtake him. There was a sudden knock at the door. He sat up and grabbed his shirt. "Give me a sec." He threw his shirt on. Buttoning up as he walked to the door. He opened it. A concerned Blaire stood there. "Blaire?" "Carter!" She was in tears as she ran inside. "Hades's has gone missing! He didn't show up for work today! He never misses a day! He didn't even call me or anything! I tried to call him but he never answered! Please! You have to help me find him!" "Alright. It's going to be ok. Just calm down and have a seat." Blaire sat at a chair. He hand her the glass of water he hadn't drank. --- James sat at the edge of the bed. He looked around. "Hmm....Maybe this place is a sanctuary." --- "Gladly." Will stood to follow him but stopped in his tracks. He clutched his eyepatch as he fell to his knees. Gritting his teeth and flinching at the pain. He was sweating. His purple eye glowed. "What the-?! What's going on?!" --- Leo reached out but clutched his hand. Keeping himself from touching his shoulder. "I know. I understand. I should have realized that you were capable of handling yourself. It's just that...You reminded me so much of her. My wife. She was strong but not that strong." He clutched the fabric of his shirt. "I was the one who killed her and my daughter. I was scared that I was going to kill you too. But not the way I did to her. Just....Everywhere I go, I leave nothing but death and destruction. I thought killing criminals made sense but now nothing does. I feel so lost without anyone to guide me. And I did the same to you. I realize now what I've done." He threw himself on him from behind. Wrapping his arms around him. "I'm sorry, Oscar! I'm so sorry! I should have never hurt you! I can't stand not being near you! All of our friends see me as a bad person now! As a monster! And they're right! They're all right! And so are you!" --- Hades dropped to his knees. He cried out as he tried to get himself to stand. "What's going?!" He spoke to the Blood God in his head. "This shouldn't affect me!" His eyes widened. "Unless....!" Blood dripped from the red eye. He touched the blood. Looking at it. "Of course!" He fell to the floor again. He cringed as he lifted his head. "Summone Amicus!" (summon friend) Will suddenly appeared. "What the hell?!" The purple hands grabbed the angel with cuffs and the angel with the dart gun. Shoving their heads against each other's which popped like cherries. Splattering blood all over. "Ok! Apparently, we're doing this?!" The purple hands grabbed Michael. Throwing him out the window. The aura left. They grabbed Hades and teleported both men back in Will's house. Hades was unconscious. The purple hands disappeared. Will fell to his knees. Taking deep breaths. "What the fuck?!" shadowess - May 5, 2021 "Handcuffs? Why would Angels looking to kill Tom have handcuffs?" David thought aloud while scratching his head. He then nodded when Nate told him where Tom was and that Patience would have to identify herself first. "I'll let her know..." David jumped a little and stood back as the ceiling began to cave in. He held up his hands, trying to calm Nate. "Well, we have to find them first and that'd be difficult without keeping a cool head! Nate, I'd suggest going back to France. If the authorities there are as good as you say they are then maybe you can help them find the Angels? In the meantime, I'll let Patience know what's happened so she can alert Heaven and avoid this whole thing putting the negotiation in jeopardy. Then I'll inform Charles so he knows any attacks from this group of Angels is not on behalf of Heaven. The last thing we need on top of all this is a new war...When I'm done, I'll come to France to help wherever I can, alright?" --- Sebastian had been kissed Carter's chest and gradually making his way down to his stomach, his hands toying with Carter's pants as he went. He'd been about to unbuckle his belt when the knock on the door interrupted them. He froze then pulled away from Carter with a slightly disappointed look to let him put his shirt back on. He couldn't help overhearing Blaire saying that Hades had gone missing. He tensed, suddenly feeling uncomfortable. Did she not know about him? When she sat down and Carter passed her the glass of water, he shared a concerned look with Carter. "Uh...Blaire, do you know if Hades has any powers?" he started, wanting to know if Blaire was aware of Hades being supernatural first. --- Oscar stiffened when Leo wrapped his arms around him and he tried to look away, trying to stay angry but his anger was wavering as Leo apologized and called himself a monster. He sighed heavily and brought a hand up to hold one of his arms, caressing it with his thumb a little comfortingly. "You're not a monster." he said softly. He then turned his head to glare at Leo. "A fucking idiot, maybe." he scolded then shook his head and said more softly; "but not a monster." Pushing his arms off him, Oscar turned around to face Leo once more. He caressed his cheek, his eyes softened. He opened his mouth to say something then paused. He then suddenly pressed his lips hard against Leo's, kissing him passionately while wrapping his arms around him to hold him tightly to him. "Oh, fuck it...I still love you!" He breathed between kisses, then pulled back and stared into his eyes intensely, smirking a little. "You have an awful lot of making up to do." he said seductively as his wings sprouted behind him. He kissed Leo's neck. "I'm going to have to punish you." he whispered into his ear. "I'll have to make you scream." he chuckled, then nibbled gently on his ear. --- Parker stopped and look back at Will when he heard him fall to his knees. "Will?!" He moved towards him, reaching out but within seconds Will had vanished. "Wha-?! Will?!" He looked around for a minute, frightened and having no clue what had just happened, where Will had gone or if he'd see him again. Thankfully, he didn't have to wait long. Just as he'd taken out his phone and been about to call Carter, Will reappeared with an unconscious Hades. "Will! What happened?! Where did you go!? What's wrong with Hades?!" he said, rushing forward to kneel next to him, wrapping his arms around him briefly before pulling back to look them both over carefully. The energy in Hades paced in a replica of Carter's living room. "Didn't I tell ya I had a bad feeling? Angels...and you're part Devil now so you gotta be careful around them! I don't know if I told ya this but if you die while I'm in here, -I'll- die too!" he wasn't angry, but by the tone of his voice and the look on his face, he seemed concerned. "Hey, kiddo? You're ok, right?"1 point
