Violet glared but took a sip, "If we're going to somehow coexist then I would prefer if you'd call me Violet. That is my name. Or should I call you little boy? Instead of Kris?" She studied him, "These children are your servants. Your soldiers. Why would you treat them as if they are your equals?" --- (sounds like fun :D) Salem grabbed his hand and led him to a spot where there was more room. She brought his hand to her waist and another entwined in his. Blake's face grew redder, "Uh how do I....?" She slowly guided him to take a few steps before turning and jumping high in the air as she said a spell. He instinctively caught her as she outstretched herself like a ballet dancer. --- Luis jumped a bit at Lang's outburst but sighed, "You're right. And I hate to say you're right." Reed chimed in, "You were trying to check on me, weren't you?" Luis felt flushed. He bit his lip, "I'm realizing now that I've been losing myself. I'm not the same person since I became an angel. I...I think I need to quit the force. Not because of you but because of me." --- Gabriel chuckled, "It's not like Uriel and Raguel are any different from each other. As for Raguel, he only mentioned the fact that he banged Lilith and that's how Nate showed up. Uriel isn't too happy that I'm keeping secrets but honestly I don't think most angels around here are fit to take Raguel's place. Everyone's too greedy for power." --- Death thought for a moment, "Then let me attack you. Alright?" He raised his hand and sent out his power towards her. --- Adam nodded, "You're gonna love these! Tacos are awesome!" They both walked to the vendor. "Two tacos please! And two cokes to go with it!" --- Will handed him the note, "Sure thing." He went into the kitchen to make some vegan sandwiches anyways. --- Nil sat straight up, "What?!" He ran to the window and gasped. Xenos knocked again, "I came here to apologize!" Nil gently pushed Layla aside. He opened the door, "Now I know I must be dreaming. You never apologize. You're always right." Xenos sighed, "Apparently not always. It seems that I have been letting my authority get the better of me. I know my family would be rightfully angry at me for it if they knew. I had a talk with a friend and learned that even a Blood God like me can make mistakes. So, on behalf of the CIA, you two are free." Nil replied, "You mean you won't hunt us down?" Xenos shook his head, "Frankly I had every opportunity to capture you two but in my heart I decided to leave you both alone. I guess even with my anger, I was still hesitant on what was right." He turned around. "I'm going to leave now unless you need any help from me. It's the least I can do after what I did." --- Insanity hopped over to her side once again, "There was a devil who took his power! You need to find Ash! His name is Astaroth! Please! Tell a demon friend about this. Make sure they let Amelia know. She can help. If he gets his powers back then he'll get his memories back too." --- Napoleon Bonaparte appeared on a street in Paris, France. He wanted to see how his people were doing. However, he wasn't expecting a full crowd of fans cheering and screaming. Bombarding him with cameras and pens and paper for him to write his signature on. (figured I should include him again cause it's been a while. also maybe you could make it more funny by playing as random fan? its up to you)

Violet held the drink but eyed it suspiciously. She raised a brow at him, "And why are you suddenly treating me as I'm your guest? Have you forgotten what it means to have a prisoner?" She smirked, "Because I can assure you my being female should not matter. Why if you were under my control, I would have used you up." --- Blake stared at it in disbelief. "First Demons and now Angels?" He took the knife and placed it in one of the loops of his jeans. "Feels like I just stumbled into the world of imagination. But thank you. I'll keep this with me at all times." Salem whispered to her Auntie, "Can I show him the dance of love from our heritage?" Blake blushed, "What?" She replied, "We have a certain dance dedicated towards love. I could teach it to you." His eyes widened, "Uh dancing? I don't know if you want to see me do that. I'm a terrible dancer." --- Luis had thought about it at his desk. He decided to open the evidence room. Planning on apologizing when he saw Lang right there. He cleared his throat, "Uh hey. I was just....collecting stuff for a case." Reed poked his head into the conversation. Luis suddenly held a determined look, "Why is he crying but you're happy?" His cheeks were flushed, "Not that I care. I mean he's just some dumb CIA agent." --- Gabriel nodded, "Sure thing." They appeared in his living room. "And look man, anyone with centuries of being alive can tell when there's love in the air. So, ask any question. I'll answer them honestly." He held out a hand as a bottle of scotch appeared. "Care for some? I figured we'd need something strong to discuss this important matter." His other hand held two glasses. --- Death replied, "Then walk with me." Raven spoke, "I'll be in my room if you need me." Once Lily and Death would reach the vacant room, Death stood on the other side. "Now, I know you must be scared but fear not. Your powers can be used for the greater good. First, I wish for you attack me. Show me how much you can do with your powers. Do not hesitate for I am more powerful than you may think." --- Adam brushed her tears away. "We can go try a new food. They have so many different ones. Just point out a business from here." --- Will lifted Damien and put him over his shoulder. He touched Parker's arm before teleporting all three of them into their house. He set Damien on the couch. "It's amazing this building withstood the earthquakes. Anyways, should I prepare a meal for him? It wouldn't be a problem. Though I don't know how he feels about a healthy lifestyle." --- James smiled at the kiss, "See ya then. And be careful." He thought in the back of his head how he was even going to remotely work out a computer but figured there was no time like the present. --- Xenos appeared in front of the house where the runaway fair and werewolf agents lived. They had been visiting the castle every now and then but enjoyed their time together in the makeshift house that was created by nature. He knocked on the door. --- Insanity would soon see Nurse May. He was sitting on John Doe's chest. He looked at her with pleading teary eyes, "Please May! He needs to go back to Hell. That's where he lives. He's a great and powerful Devil. At least, he was....But he didn't mean to hurt you! He was just scared. I'm sorry for what he did."

Blake nodded, "Thank you sir." He set Salem on her feet. Salem ran to Audrey, "Auntie!" She wrapped her arms around her. "I'm so glad to see you! I didn't know what happened. I would have fought if I had known who was there." Violet hissed at everyone, "You may have won! But soon, I shall have my revenge!" Blake teleported Audrey and Salem back in their shop. Salem suddenly burst into tears. She clutched Blake's shirt, "Oh Blake! I thought she was going to hurt you too! I was so worried!" Blake wrapped his arms around her. Gently running his hand through her hair, "I'm alright. What matters is that you're safe. I won't let this ever happen again." For the first time since knowing these people, tears peeked out from him. --- Reed rolled his eyes but glared, "Is that all you can do when there are serious matters? Make jokes?" --- Death nodded, "I see. Come children. Let us head home." Once all three would disappear, Gabriel would wink. "Not a bad partner to have. Death's a pretty hot dude with a mysterious brooding look." --- Death would stand in front of his throne. He looked at Lily, "I would like to start training. I have much to teach. We shall be in the empty room so that we have enough space to battle and conduct certain spells." Raven pat Lily's back, "I know you'll do it sis! Do you like the nickname? I learned it on something called the internet." Death rolled his eyes but smiled. Though he would definitely talk to Raven about his internet intake. --- Adam caressed her cheek, "There is hope. While so many bad things have happened, a lot of good things were done too. Our children are flawed but they never stop trying to help each other. We can bring them to a better world." --- Will's eyes widened, "That's the first time I've ever seen Damien pass out. And you got your leg back!" He couldn't help but smile. "Guess we can let Damien crash at our place if you're ok with that." --- James replied, "We could always have more moments like this. In the meantime, I think I'll be happy to hear you leaving. Knowing that the patients there have a nurse that they can count on." He looked around. "I can explore my interests while you're gone. Are there items in here that I can use for a hobby? I've never had one."

Ortiz clutched his crotch as he dropped to his knees. Gritting his teeth against the pain. He soon disappeared once both boys did. Deciding to flee before Kris might make him as an example to the group. --- Blake nodded at Auntie. He knelt and grabbed the padlock. Salem spoke, "It's only minor. I'll be fine after a healing potion." He stared down at the lock and willed it to let go of the cage. It dropped with an echoing clatter to the floor. Salem pushed the cage. Blake held her in his arms like a knight in shining armor. She blushed at the sight of him, "Thank you." Violet slowly opened her eyes to find a bracelet around her wrist. She glared, "NO! My power!" Just as she felt defeat, Blake and Salem held a kiss before their lips parted. --- Reed glared, "Why do you think I do any research? It's to keep things organized." His expression became like a crying puppy, "To know what or who I'm going to deal with." With that baby face of his, his eyes sparkled from the tears. His lips pursed as he gave off the look of a flirty newbie. Though he didn't even know he was making that face. --- Gabriel nonchalantly waved his hand, "They still need to go through what's left from the Interdimensional Earthquake but in two days, they should be ready to meet." He turned to Lily's question, "Oh yeah! We all go way back. Before mankind was ever a thing. You wouldn't believe the crazy adventures we use to have together." Death smirked. Thinking of his own lover as this hero holding a sword like the soldiers from the Middle Ages. Imagining him conquering great foes. "I can certainly picture quite the scene. I myself always avoided the outside. I rather prefer my own solitude. Though I guess that has changed now. For the better I'd say." --- Ben's wings sprouted. He ripped into her dress. Caressing her chest before pressing his nail against her. Leaving some gentle claw marks. He kissed her breasts before moving to her hips. "I'll make sure you never forget how much I love you." --- Adam hesitantly spoke, "Well first we need John to be there. I rather have him around in case anything should happen. I'll have a talk with him about it. Still, it was already dangerous being out there myself. So, just stay on your toes." He stepped further into the middle of the brothel, "John! Eve wants to go on a tour to the Earth. See the modern people and the modern quirks about life." --- Will nodded, "Sure." He kissed him. "I'll be right here waiting." He left the room. Intending on doing what Parker said. By the time, Parker would have become a Devil, the paperwork would have been dealt with. --- James was the first to open his eyes. He had never been tired before in all his years as a soldier. He turned to May. Her head laid on his chest. He ran his hand through her hair. "May. Thank you for giving me this new feeling."

Blake winced at the hit but accepted the help. He nodded, "That's alright. I figured things would be challenging." Ortiz glared at Benny, "Don't question my order." Blake raised a brow, "Wait a minute. Does Kris usually teach us? In fact, where is he?" Ortiz replied, "You don't need to know right now." Blake glared right back, "I will find out." Ortiz gave him a look. Warning him in some way not to disobey but Blake soon disappeared. Ortiz clenched his fists, "That fucking-!" He grabbed Benny and shoved him against the wall. "I want you little shits to keep your mouths shut and listen right now! Kill Blake when he least suspects it. Make sure Kris doesn't find out, got it?" --- Salem lifted her head up from her crying, "Auntie!" Blake appeared. Salem gasped, "Blake?" Violet stepped out from the shadows into the moonlight, "Well well if it isn't the whole family." Blake glared, "You bitch! How could you do this?!" She smirked, "It was easy little one." Her eyes glowed. "Now, come to me." Yet, when she waited, he did not walk towards her. He only continued to glare at her with his fists ready. Violet growled, "Why isn't it working?!" Blake looked at his hands. Expecting the trance to happen but always feeling it bouncing off, "I'm not sure. Usually to deflect a Succubus' powers, you have to ignore sexual desires." Salem brought her hands to her chest like a nun in prayer, "Or already have love for someone else." Blake turned to her. Blushing at the sight of her as he seemed bewildered that he had loved her this quickly. Salem shouted, "Watch out!" Blake turned back to Violet and raised his arm. Blocking her high kick. Her eyes widened, "What the hell?!" He smiled, "You're all alone. That was your worst mistake." He sent her across the floor. She hit the wall as blood spewed out before she collapsed on the floor. --- Reed held out a hand, "Just give me my book back. I should have never stopped researching. Maybe my interactions with your friends would have been better." --- Gabriel asked, "Did you want to discuss it alone as friends or as political figures? You did bring Death's children." Death smiled at his family. He laid a hand on Lily, "I am pleased by your eagerness to learn more of this world. It shows such great curiosity in the face of the unknown. You may outdo my teachings yet." --- Ben's horns grew as his eyes glowed red with his tail sprouting. He licked his lips, "Oh get ready." He bit into her neck. Nibbling and kissing there. --- Adam smiled, "Those sound nice Eve but humanity has changed since you were gone. Things aren't really the same anymore. I'll get John to nab some magazines and you'll know what I mean." --- Will wanted to ask if Parker was sure but he could read it all over his face. He clenched his fists. Feeling somehow guilty as he wanted him to do this from the beginning. Yet, he wanted to respect his wishes. He sighed, "Ok. Damien? We need your help. It's really important."

Blake chuckled, "A stink bomb eh? Wouldn't mind putting that to the test." Ortiz nodded at Kris, "Yes sir." He stepped out to meet the trio. Blake stopped and warily kept an eye on him. Ortiz said, "I'm going to be with you to teach you the basics of potion making. More specifically healing potions. Even locating objects. You need to learn everything right away if we're to take down this Succubus." "Ok but first I want to work on my combat." Ortiz nodded at Drake, "Attack." --- Luis continued to glare. Reed was unsure as other officers either greeted him neutrally or happily. He gripped the leather over his shoulder from his bag and walked into the evidence room. Knowing that he hadn't seen anyone enter the room. He stood at a corner and gripped his arms. "This isn't going to work but I can't disobey my superior." A tear dripped down his cheek before more showed up. --- Gabriel appeared. Raven said, "I'm guessing I missed all that tension?" Gabriel rolled his eyes, "Don't mind Uriel. He just wants power like all the other winged chicken here. Frankly, I'm fine with being a messenger. Now, what do you need me for?" --- Ben smiled, "That sounds like a fair deal. I wonder if we could make our moment together real steamy." He winked. --- Adam spoke as they entered their home hand in hand, "How about the furniture? I was thinking of lilac curtains with some find redwood to compliment it." --- Death replied, "Take as much time as you need. I must see where my children are." He disappeared. Finding himself behind everyone in Heaven. "Ah! I see you've recovered Azrael. Bringing them here for a lesson on politics? I guess they should start somewhere." --- Will nodded, "I'll go get a nurse and see what I can do. In the meantime, you need to take some deep breaths. Ok?" He left the room. In a matter of minutes, a nurse had extracted a vial of blood from Parker and would retrieve a vial of his supposed daughter's blood in order to complete the test.

Blake bit his lip. Unsure of this training with his new friends but nodded anyways. He found just the people he was looking for in the kitchen. "Drake? Benny? Boss said you guys can train with me. He says you'll have a few things to teach me?" Ortiz seemed a bit pissed at first but with Kris's playfulness, he smirked. "Yes sir." He disappeared. It wouldn't take long before he held a shopping bag filled with the materials needed. However, he seemed concerned. "Salem's gone missing. Audrey's having a fit. I don't know how that Succubus found out but I figured she must have been spying on Blake as a way to gain info from us. No doubt she's taken Salem to lure Blake and use him for her own benefit. Should we tell him?" Salem would be locked in a cage in an abandoned building of the city. Violet, the Succubus, was waiting for her trap to work. --- Luis was doing some paperwork after having restored his desk by his powers. He felt their presence and turned. Glaring at Reed, "What do you want?" Reed nervously cleared his throat, "Hello I'm-" "You're not one of us and you never will be. You're just another flea." He rubbed his own shoulder, "I understand that you are upset with how things have transpired. I can assure you that I am here to keep things running smoothly." "Smoothly? You're the CIA. You never work with anyone. All you do is pick at people's heads." Reed turned away. Defeated by Luis's insults. Frowning as he didn't know what to say. --- Raven shrugged and sighed, "Oh why not? Fine." Once they appeared in Heaven, Raven would squint. "Too shiny and bright. I liked it better when it was dark." --- Ben blushed. Transfixed by her touch until she asked him. He raised a brow, "But how would that work? Like could I be a Blood God and give you a kid? Or do I have to be normal for it to work? I'm not sure about any of this. Anatomy was never my best subject in school." --- Adam snapped his fingers with a smile, "We could decorate together and fight too! Let's have some time to renovate while also saving time for you to train me. Sounds great?" --- Death and Andi would appear in the throne room. He looked around, "Where are the children? I hope they haven't made more trouble while I was gone." --- Ash appeared before David and Hades, "Afternoon." Hades's eyes widened, "Ash? As in totally fucking creepy ancient demon? You look dapper." Ash smirked, "Working on a new look for my dear wife. I'm still unsure as to how I should show myself as for my family. Gave myself a British accent as the poor soul on the Judas Cradle." "I think you mean the icing on the cake." "The what?" --- Will placed his hands firmly on his shoulders, "Parker it's going to be ok. We'll make it through this together. You're not the first person to fuck up. We all have at some point. Right now, I'm going to go check on her if that's alright with you. I can go over the process with CPS." He held a small smile, "I want to have this kid if you want her too."

Ortiz bit his lip but listened to what Kris had to say as a warning. Blake's eyes shined, "I'm ready for anything!" Feeling now confident that everything would be just fine. --- Reed awkwardly smiled, "Or you could give me all their files?" He saw the look Lang was giving him. He sighed, "Or I guess we could do introductions." --- Raven nervously smiled, "As much as I like this idea, I don't know about myself and political situations. Seems a bit out of my range." --- Ben said, "Nope! I'd still introduce the kids to Metallica. After all, I have a pretty unique bedroom in case you forgot." --- "Hell yeah!" Adam raised a brow, "But what the hell are we gonna do? I'm so bored. Making Paradise really does take forever." --- Death's face was red from second hand embarrassment. Hades stifled a chuckle from Andi's shouts before saying, "No problem! Glad I could be of-" Suddenly, she laughed. Still thinking about his comments on his own body. "Honestly, I didn't think about my parts from before like that until you said those words! That's fucking hilarious!" Death cleared his throat, "Yes well. We really must get going now." --- Will nodded at her before tucking the card in his pocket. He took a deep breath and pinched the brim of his nose, "Just one question. Why the hell didn't you use protection? You should know better as an adult. You're lucky that this is about a healthy baby and not an STD." He leaned against the wall. "And as for the baby, if it's ok with you, I'd like to adopt her. Only if we both agree on it. After all she's only a kid. Can't blame her for this chaotic crap that always comes ahead of us."

(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?"

Blake bit his lip. He decided he would explain some more later. For now, he had a shower to catch and a breakfast to fight for. After a decent shower and a well deserved breakfast, he would walk to Kris, wherever he was, and ask that same story. "Cecil told me about Rio The Wrong. Said you could tell me the story if that's alright sir. You see, I've been worried about putting Salem in danger. That Succubus got taken down by me. I broke her fucking wrist. If she knows about Salem then I....I can't let anything happen to her." For the first time, he held a pleading look. "I don't want Salem to die because of me." --- Reed thought about what Luis said to him. He sighed, "I guess you're right." He looked around, "Are there still going to be continuing work despite previous events? I need to be updated on everything that's going on." --- Conrad and Raven came in for a group hug. Raven spoke, "We promised Father that we would take care of you. I have been through many battles before I came here. I know what it's like to feel exhausted and hurt." Conrad touched Azrael's hand, "Just focus on resting. I'm sure Death will want you to recover first before taking on any tasks." He began to glow. He took a step back from everyone before looking at his hands. "Looks as though I've overstayed my welcome." Raven grabbed him, "No! You can't go!" Conrad chuckled, "It's ok. I'll come back for another visit soon. Just tell Death to leave my bag of goods at my home. And I will see you another time. This is not goodbye anymore." Raven, with tears in his eyes, kissed him before Conrad faded away. He continued to look at where he stood but smiled despite the tears. Knowing that things were different now. --- Ben replied, "Actually it's funny you mentioned that. I've been missing the guys at the department. I want to go back to being an officer. Being there with everyone, it felt like I had a second home. A place where I could help people. I know we've been doing that here but it's different. You know? So, would it be alright if I went to my occupation?" --- Adam shook his head, "It's not just these girls. We're going to get more people involved. And far as I'm concerned, we're doing just fine." He wrapped an arm around her, "You and me are on top of the world!" --- Once all three would appear in Hell, they would be at a concert where the band was playing as a crowd of souls and demons were enjoying their time rocking out. Hades had been standing a bit aways to keep an eye on things. She turned to the trio. Her eyes sparkled when she saw David, "Dad!" She ran up and gave him a big hug. Only realizing how much she was putting now since her Hellhound form was a lot stronger. She awkwardly smiled, "Sorry. I got a little carried away there." She crossed her arms and raised a brow, "Please tell me there's not another maniac who's hungry for power?" Death spoke, "Not at all. My temporary right hand wishes for your help in a personal matter. May we discuss this a bit further from the noise?" Hades shrugged, "Sure." At a distance, they huddled. Death continued, "You see Andi here wishes to become a man. I understand that you were able to change your form?" Hades nodded, "It was pretty easy but I don't know if my abilities have changed since I became part of Hell's family tree. I could try though." "That is all we ask of you." She raised her hands, "Stand back everyone. Andi, you'll be just fine. I hope." She brought out her energy which now seemed more like a mix of purple and red. Concentrating her mind on Andi and envisioning a man before her. Once she was done, Andi was now a man. Hades opened her eyes to see and snapped her fingers proudly, "I still got it!" Death raised a brow at Andi, "How do you feel? Are you hurt?" (also oh shit that whole social services has got me freaking out :D)

I understand. Please focus on taking care of yourself first. I rather wait while you rest.

Blake shook his head, "That's fine. I need to wake up anyways. But..." He bit his lip before saying, "Do you think it's a bad idea if Salem knows me? Ever since that Succubitch showed up, I've had this odd feeling that she might be able to see something from me or someone. I barely met Salem but I don't want her to get hurt because I decided to be her friend." --- Will sighed before storming back into the precinct. Reed nodded, "I promise but can I still do some other research? It's sort of my hobby." He stepped out when he saw Will. He did his best smile and waved, "Hello sir! It's an honor to-" Will ignored him and slammed his officer door shut. Leaving a resounding noise. Reed frowned, "They hate me. I can't blame them. I'm a circle trying to go through a square shaped hole. I don't know why Xenos assigned me to this mission. I'm only a human. What could I possibly do here?" --- At the door, Raven took a moment before opening it. He walked to Azrael's side, "We know you were wounded in battle so we decided to give you this." He handed the amulet, "At your most vulnerable moment, it will gather all the energy within your range and use it to blast your foes away. Other times, you can call on it to heal." Conrad awkwardly waved, "Sorry for showing up like this. I'm Raven's boyfriend." --- Ben cupped her face, "Don't say something like that. We are compatible. Despite our challenges together, I'll always try to make you happy." He kissed her forehead. "I'm going to do this because I love you." --- Adam winked, "I'd like to see you try." He waved at the distance of land. "Can you believe we've got all this to ourselves? We're really sucking it to God right now. Can't wait to see the look on his face when he finally sees us with all this power." --- Death replied, "Is she available at the moment?" Hades would be rocking it out with the band in Hell. After some time working on it, they were able to use their powers to bring music in. And so, a concert was right in Hell with a huge crowd having a blast. Hades was part of crowd control but also head banged to the rockin music.

Blake was sleeping soundly like everyone else until he saw something. He tossed and turned in his sleep as he saw Salem in his dreams. She seemed frightened. Running from some danger as he tried to catch up to her. It would only be until morning that he would wake up in a cold sweat. Feeling at first scared then embarrassed about being seen like this by the others. --- Will shook him, "Hey! Stop for one second and listen to yourself! We did cross a line. We decided to take on a case made for the CIA. It is my responsibility to fix this which means everyone needs to follow orders. That is an order from your Chief. Either stay here or go home until the steam wears off." Reed looked at the doughnut before hesitantly taking it. He observed its pink frosting and multi-colored sprinkles before taking a bite. His eyes lit up as the sugar hit his tongue like ecstasy. "It is pleasing to the taste buds. Though I'll have to skip any meal today considering the calories. Thank you though." He placed his book on the table, "I think the book has something on here about social interactions." Despite what Lang said, Reed had always relied on books to help him through any situation. Even social ones but they never really did give him any luck with that. --- Raven said, "Whoa! That feels weird." Conan chuckled, "It's all been strange for everyone I think." Raven nodded, "Let's go see Azrael. He should still be resting." --- Ben squeezed her hand before catching his breath. He nodded, "Ok. I'm not exactly too keen on this but I want you to be happy. So I'll do it. Question is, is David available? He always seems busy." --- Adam grabbed her shoulders. Getting a scream from her. He immediately laughed and fell on the floor, "You should have seen the look on your face!" --- Death replied, "My temporary right hand would like to become a man. Do you have something that could change her shape?"

Blake rolled his eyes and laid under the covers, "He's right. Let's just get some sleep." --- Will appeared in front of Henderson, "Talk to me man." He placed a hand on his shoulder. "Just take a deep breath and tell me everything that's on your mind." Reed put the book back in his bag. He spoke, "Doughnuts are high in calories. It is recommended that an officer has an intake of 3,000 to 4,000 calories." He followed Lang into the break room. "You should throw those out and bring nutritious snacks." --- Death made sure he was close by Andi, "Let us see him." The duo disappeared to wherever David might have been. Raven chuckled, "It might be different from your magic but I think I can teach you." He stood up and walked over. "Let's go see Azrael." Conrad pointed at the bags, "Don't you have a room for these? We can't keep lugging this stuff around." Raven replied, "Probably should have done that before. Let's go do that now." --- Dariel let out a sigh, "C'mon!" He began picking up the armor. Holding it like a bunch of books. He soon disappeared. Ben stood from his chair. He had a hard time relaxing after what Shezmu had said. Especially considering the toll it took on Jessica. "Jessica!" He suddenly hugged her. "I'm so glad to see you!" He looked at her, "That look. What's on your mind?"

Blake blushed, "Maybe we should get some sleep. Kris says he wants me to have energy. He probably has some assignments for us." He thought about Salem though. A smile crept his lips but he wondered, "Besides, what would a girl like that want with a guy like me?" --- Will nodded, "I appreciate it." He headed out and looked around, "Henderson? We need to talk." Reed pulled out a book, "I have this excellent study on creating friendships. Perhaps we could play a fun game like it mentions." He flipped through the book. "We could do a potluck and discuss matters in order to get to know each other." --- Death's eyes lit up, "Of course! Why didn't I think of that?" He stood, "Let us see David, Andi. I'm sure he knows something." Raven picked up his bag, "Sure. Just watch from a distance. I need some silence so I can focus on the stone." The trio would head to the empty room. Conrad placed the bags in one corner. Away from the circle. Raven sat crisscrossed in the circle. Alone with the green stone in hand. His eyes closed as his aura grew. Suddenly, his eyes glowed. The stone floated out of his hands before transforming. A black string wrapped through the stone with a swirl embedded in it. Golden flecks were within the swirl. --- "Oh crap!" Dariel quickly took the armor off and left it on the floor, "Is there a closet for this stuff?" He crossed his arms and bit his lip, "And thanks for taking me in by the way. I like your company too."
