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."

He said, "I'm Blake. Before you ask, Salem was only here to give Kris an item that would benefit him. I know how we can gossip sometimes so I rather not have that going on." --- The agent jumped a bit at Henderson bumping into him. He nervously cleared his throat before saying, "If I could have everyone's attention? Because of recent events, it is in Xenos's best interest to have an agent watch this precinct. We would like to avoid the NYPD getting involved in more higher matters. It is recommended that this force stays within city cases. Not federal ones." He continued, "Other than that, I could be a fellow colleague should you need to any questions answered. If those questions aren't classified. My name is Ethan Reed." Luis scoffed, "More like egghead! So what? The CIA sent a total loser to watch us?" Will spoke, "That's enough! Now, I know none of us like this but we still have to show respect. If I hear so much as another insult about this man, I will have you all reprimanded. This is about making up our mistakes and doing things right. And Xenos was right. I should have reported this to him earlier. Otherwise, none of you would have put your lives on the line for me." Will walked over. He held out his hand, "Welcome to the team." Ethan hesitantly shook his hand. Not expecting this from any officer. "Thank you." --- Gabriel scoffed, "Yeah sure. And I'm pretty sure I'm God himself!" He said that last statement sarcastically before disappearing. --- Conrad raised a brow, "The stone? Do you think it'll work here?" Raven took out a green round stone, "It should with my magic. I need to make it become an amulet." He turned to Death, "I thought it would be good if Azrael had an amulet that could protect him when he's at his most vulnerable." Death smiled, "That sounds like a grand idea. I recommend going to the empty room in order to focus your magic there. Before you go, I don't suppose either you know how to change the sex of a being? My temporary right hand here wishes to be a man." Raven shook his hand, "Sorry but even our magic doesn't go that far. It requires too much power and could pose a risk if the spell isn't done right." Conrad sighed, "Unfortunately, he is right." --- Dariel was about to agree when he heard the trauma situation. "Uh Well...I didn't exactly have a great home and I'm not exactly feeling awesome about anything. So, it might be a while before the sunshine and rainbows come in for me."

Blake suddenly chuckled, "You guys want to see him drop dead?" He quickly cleared his throat, "I didn't mean...I don't know what was that. Sorry." --- Xenos grabbed him by his collar, "You and your little club agreed to it! You should have come to us for this operation! Your Chief knows better!" A black car pulled up. He turned to the window, "Which is why I'm assigning an agent here to make sure something like this doesn't happen again." He glared at Henderson. "Stay in your lane." Just as Xenos disappeared, the CIA agent walked in. He didn't look like what you would expect. He was a thin pale man with brown short curly hair. He wore a simple white buttoned sleeved shirt and brown pants along with a sweater vest over his shirt. He looked around and awkwardly adjusted his leather brown messenger bag. "Is there an Angel here who can heal everyone? I'm sorry to intrude but I have an assignment." --- Gabriel rolled his eyes, "Here we go again. First Raguel and now you. Is everyone trying to play dirty?" He leaned against the wall. "Frankly, I rather talk because someone close to me deserves to know the truth. However, I can't stand how you two are playing this cat and mouse game. I can't believe I'm saying this but it's beneath both of you. You guys are better than this." He suddenly frowned and held tears in his eyes, "Or at least I thought you were." --- Raven held his bag tightly, "Well we definitely have some stones for me to pick and choose." Conrad replied, "Amongst other things. I wonder if I can bring some of these home." Death thought for a moment, "I'm unsure about such an idea. I do accept your want of this but we have never seen such a thing here. I would need to discuss this with Azrael. Perhaps he knows something." The trio soon arrived. Death smiled and walked downstairs, "Ah! My children! How was your trip?" Raven lowered the bag. Placing it on the floor, "Too good if you ask me. The moment they realized who we were, they couldn't stop giving us everything! But at least, I have something for Azrael now." Conrad chuckled, "It has been fun doing this. Just like old times when we use to go to that little town where the markets had so much to offer." --- Dariel appeared. He was in armor and holding a sword, "Hey boss! I got-" He fell over. "This damn thing is so heavy! How did people ever fight in this crap?!" He sat down and took the helmet off. "Anyways, I've been practicing. Nearly chopped someone's head off too." (the CIA agent is going to look like Spencer Reid from Criminal Minds)

Blake smiled, "Yes sir." He headed to the bunks. Finding everyone in bed either asleep or still talking to each other. He got undressed until he wore only his boxers. Climbing under the covers and sitting there before saying, "So none of you guys want to challenge me or kill me?" He found it odd that he wasn't meant with hostility when he first met them. --- Xenos rolled his eyes. He sent out his words into their heads. Letting them know the CIA was taking care of everything. That Dick was placed in federal prison too. There was nothing to worry about anymore. They could go on with their usual lives. --- Gabriel gave a thumbs up to Raguel before following Uriel. Once inside the office, he took a deep breath. "Let me guess. You want me to tell you everything otherwise I'll be tortured?" --- Conrad said, "Actually that sounds like fun. I'd love to help and spend some time with your sister, Raven." Raven held his hand. He took some of the flowers from Lily so she wouldn't hold so many. The trio headed out of the forest and to the market. Raven said, "I can't wait to show you everything!" Conrad replied, "I only have twenty fours to spend time here so let's make this count. I wish to see everything!" --- Death tapped against his armrest, "Should I be supervising their visit? They are young after all." --- Ash replied, "Well well! Sounds like the all powerful ancient being knows a few things about being a considerate person. Maybe there's hope for you yet." He walked over and pat his shoulder, "Don't quit on the idea of having a friend now." He snapped his fingers, "Cause just like that! You've got me as a potential friend." He walked away, "And I know what you are so don't worry about us getting to know each other. You can try to hide all you want but I sensed it the moment you appeared. I must say I am impressed." He tipped his hat, "Call on me when you require my blood again. Free of charge from now on." He disappeared.

Charles wrapped an arm around her, "And we have our friends to be there for us too. This time, we won't be alone in this journey." He kissed her cheek. --- Blake nodded, "Of course ma'am. Thank you." He disappeared. Appearing in front of Kris's now rebuilt door as he knocked. With the door open, he handed the note. "Audrey said this is what the last person who wore it wrote down. Apparently, the person who puts it on someone's wrist can be the only one to take it off." --- Dick's eyes widened, "No!" He lifted his gun and tried to shoot but faltered. Falling over like everyone else. Xenos appeared in front of the black vans and smirked. He manipulated the vans and transformed them into nothing but metal balls. Expecting gun fire, he appeared behind one thug and ripped his head off. He zoomed past the others and sliced them up like sushi. After killing them, he appeared at the main control room where he shut the gas off and the siren. He pulled out his phone and called for his agents. --- The whole police force would find themselves laying in their own precinct. Once everyone began to wake up, Xenos would be standing. He sighed, "You should have called us you know." --- Raven grabbed Conrad's hand and practically dragged him over. "I nearly forgot to introduce her!" Conrad smiled at the joy he saw in his boyfriend. He nodded at her, "It's nice to meet you. Did you get here like us? You don't seem like you have the same presence as everyone else. Pardon me if that sounds rude." --- Death nodded, "I'll let you know." The duo disappeared. Gabriel jumped at the sight of Uriel appearing before he had a chance to pick out a game. He nervously chuckled, "Hey buddy old pal! So, I don't know about telling you....stuff? It's sort of complicated." --- Death took a deep breath before sitting on his throne. "Quite the day ahead of us, wouldn't you say?" --- Ash chuckled. He pulled out a razor before poking his finger, "Come and take your fill. Preferably without the sensual part of the business. I'm taken."

So I tried to find a picture I could show but didn't any pngs. Just letting you know that Ash's new appearance is basically Jasper from Cruella.

Charles replied, "I checked on him earlier. He's doing just fine. Lights out for him I guess. He's sleepy at the moment. Looking at him there in his crib, I cannot imagine him becoming the King of Hell someday. Yet, I won't deny him of that when he's old enough." --- Blake nodded, "Thank you ma'am. I'll be sure to let him know." He accepted the note. Hesitantly, he asked, "When do you think I could see your granddaughter again?" --- Dick jumped from criminal to criminal as he shot them before grabbing Henderson and knocking him out. Dragging him around the corner. Luis's wings sprouted as he grinned. While the shots were flying, he began punching his way through every enemy. Destroying instantly with his strength. Leaving nothing but a mash of meat behind. Will glared. He found himself surrounded his own aura. His black feathery wings sprouted. A purple glow showered everyone. Freezing the enemies in place. He growled, "Luis! Stay with Malone while I take Lang with me. Now!" Luis glared back but headed to Malone's side. Will smirked at the scared enemies, "Didn't think I wasn't going to bring any magic tricks?" --- Raven practically held a bouquet of flowers, "I think we've got plenty. Let's go." He turned to leave when he froze. Conrad stood across from him. The flowers fell from his hand. Raven was shaking as his heart raced, "Conrad? My prince? Is that you?" Conrad had tears running down his cheeks, "It is. Death helped me reach you." He began walking towards him when Raven suddenly ran over. Both boys were soon in each other's arms. Kissing deeply as it felt like they would never see each other again. --- Conrad nodded, "I'll discuss this with him. Thank you. You had no obligation too but I am glad you helped anyways." Death replied, "He is my son now. His worries are now mine." Conrad smiled at his words. He soon took a deep breath and closed his eyes. His body glowed along with the pass. Suddenly, he wasn't there anymore. Death nodded at Uriel, "Thank you for your help. Could we possibly be of assistance? Or is that all?" --- Gabriel crossed his arms and sighed, "Ok. I...I won't tell. But if I won't then maybe you'll have a chance to talk to him someday. At least think about it, ok?" He leaned against the bars, "Anyways I guess we could play charades while waiting for this whole trial business. Or are you into poker?" --- Ash transformed into another appearance. A man in his thirties with a small afro, brown casual suit, black fedora, and light skin. He took off the hat and smirked, "Sounds like a tempting offer. I don't suppose you know any good books on how to raise a baby? Or perhaps a present for my wife?" He spun the hat in his hand. "It's a long story but I have a lot to make up for as a father and a husband. I rather do it right." He suddenly frowned, "And I can't decide on what a father should look like for her."

Carter loomed over Sebastian as he rubbed himself against him. Knowing that he would make his moment memorable. (private time) --- Life snapped his fingers and a book popped out, "You might want to read this before going." He handed her the book which read, 'Ways To Socialize.' "Nothing against you. Just figured you'd might need it." --- Charles was sitting on the couch with the TV on. He smiled, "Ah Amelia! I take it everything went well?" --- Salem smiled, "Of course Grandma." Blake immediately shook himself out of his silence, "Uh yes ma'am. Salem handed it to him in person." He awkwardly picked at his sleeve. "Excuse me ma'am for that kiss she gave me. I didn't make her do it." --- Will gave the signal. Everyone went in. Firing at anyone who wasn't a police officer or a victim in all of this chaos. Despite probable injuries or deaths, the police wouldn't stop until this organization was done. Luis had a chance to grab a guard's head and smashed it into a wall. Smirking as the brain matter exploded out in the open. --- Raven said, "I could always eliminate anything living here if that helps." --- Conrad clenched his fists but listened. He looked up at them, "When....When could I visit him?" "Right now I imagine. If you'd like." ,said Death. Conrad nodded, "Please." Death handed him the five passes. Conrad put them all away in his pocket except for one. "So, how are we traveling?" --- Gabriel summoned a glass of water and took a swig of it before spitting it out with a shocked expression. He whispered, "You're kidding me! Holy shit! Don't you get it? I have to tell him! Once Nate knows about it, he'll help you get a less terrible punishment." --- Ash turned around. To the naked eye, he was a young handsome gentleman. However, his power said it all. He might not have had the same feared appearance but his power still held in greatness. He laughed, "It's good to know I can still scare anyone. I had to stop by and check on things." He raised his hand and brought the blood from the floor to his own mouth. Absorbing it so that his deer-like appearance came back. "Now, what is it that you desire?"

lol glad you're enjoying this story, i'm having fun too 😄

Carter licked his lips and sank his fangs into his neck. Giving him some venom so that the moment could be doubled in pleasure. He found himself moaning and digging a hand under Sebastian's jeans. --- Life nonchalantly waved as he smiled, "Don't worry about it. Go ahead and have fun. Things are different now, Ellie. Frankly, I ought get more of you guys into vacation time. You can't exactly work well without rest." --- Blake nodded, "Yes sir." At the kitchen, Salem accepted a glass of orange juice. The boys would be able to watch them from afar if they were curious. Salem put the empty glass on the counter before blushing again, "Um thanks for the drink." "You're welcome. Do you still have that travel potion?" She shook her head. He bit his lip, "I'll take you back home." With their hands held, they appeared in Audrey's shop. Salem smiled, "Hello grandma! I gave Kris the bracelet as you asked. He's happy with it." She turned to Blake, "Thank you for bringing me back." Before he had the chance to say anything, she kissed him on the cheek. Leaving him stunned silence as she headed into the back of the store. He uttered, "I...I...." --- With everyone geared up and ready to go, the police would soon arrive at the company that was put as a ruse. Disguising the real operation inside. Dick quickly shot the camera from the back of the building. He pick locked the door. "Use force always fellas. These bastards don't take prisoners unless they need ya for a plan." --- Raven said, "Really? I actually like it here. It seems peaceful." He began picking up some flowers. --- Conrad opened the door. He wore a similar dark robe like Raven's. Only he appeared more lively and cheery in comparison to his lover. He nodded, "Your Grace." Death raised a brow, "You know who I am?" Conrad replied, "I have had plenty of time to study since my death." "I am glad to hear. I wish to tell you of your lover, Raven." Conrad's eyes lit up, "How is he? Is he alright?" Death bent down a bit and gently put his hands on his shoulders, "When you two came through the portal, he lost his way after you perished. He wished to destroy our world until I came along and talked to him. He has hurt some people. Even killed one of my men. However, I have taken him in as my own son. He has powers like mine and I would not want him lost. Therefore, I ask of you to consider meeting him. There are passes for this occasion." Conrad yanked himself out of Death's hold. Tears dripped down his cheeks, "That damn bastard! Raven could be reckless sometimes but this?!" He clutched his head. "How could he?" Death replied, "You must understand. He-" "No! He knew the limits that I had when it came to fighting! We don't have to kill!" --- Gabriel's eyes widened, "You have a kid? And you didn't even tell me?! I'm an uncle!" He pointed at the cell over. "By the way, mind if I try this whole relationship counseling business? Between you and me, I think I rather get you guys back to communicating. I could care less about the hot sex you guys had." He motioned his lips as if he were zipping them up. "Secret's safe with me. And you've gotta tell me who my nephew is. I can't wait to teach all sorts of jokes!" --- James was taken aback at first. It was the first time he ever heard someone say that. A smile soon formed on his lips as he said, "I love you too." He brought her close. Holding her in a gentle grip. Their bodies pressed against each others as he kissed her again.

Carter chuckled, "Challenge accepted." He lifted off the bed and pinned him to the wall as he kissed him. --- Life nodded with a smile, "Sure thing." He cupped his hand over his mouth, "Hey Ellie! Someone's inviting you to a little get together!" --- Blake nearly spoke when the witch replied to Kris, "Oh! Well, if you put it on her then her powers become weaker. It'll be easier to control her." She turned back to Blake. "A drink? I don't know if I should stay too long. I wouldn't want to impose." Blake blurted out, "What?! No, it's fine! I mean....!" He sighed. "Look, it's no problem. I'll see what we have in the kitchen. You can follow me. What's your name by the way?" She walked over, "Thank you. I'm Salem. It's cliche I know but it's a beautiful name." She held his hand. Blake blushed even harder. Not expecting this physical touch, "Um no....I think it's alright." He quickly led Salem to the kitchen. Not wanting Kris to see him melt like a mess in front of a girl. --- Luis nodded, "Alright." As everyone else was getting ready, Dick put a hand on Henderson's shoulder and looked him in the eye. "Whatever it is, we'll deal with it. Right now, we've got a job to do." --- Raven frowned but replied, "I think the forest should be safe but I'm going to keep my eyes out just in case." He headed to the sign pointed at the Forest. "Should we have brought baskets? I guess we could put these items in our pockets." --- Death raised a hand in front of Andi, "Calm yourself. He is not like Raguel. Uriel is correct in this occasion." He turned his attention back to Uriel. "Where is the boy's home?" Conrad would be living in a crooked grey house where he surrounded himself with lots of books and animals related to melancholy emotions. Finding comfort and joy in it all. --- Gabriel let out a frustrated sigh, "It's all about me me me! Do you ever stop trying to save your own ass?! If it wasn't Lucifer then who was it? You?" --- James was taken aback by May's forwardness. He took off his own jeans. After feeling her touch, he reached out and cupped her cheek before kissing deeply. His other hand touched her hip.

Carter slipped his hand under his shirt. Lifting his shirt up before kissing his chest. His fangs lightly touched his skin. Leaving a sensual touch. --- Life appeared, "Amelia?!" He flustered, "Don't suppose you can forgive an old man for being childish? I'm really sorry about our first meeting." --- Ortiz grit his teeth but nodded, "Yes boss." He left. Blake headed into the bunks. He faked a stern look and nodded at everyone. A teenage witch wearing a cliche pointy black hat and a pink dress appeared behind Kris, "Oh dear! Is this the right place? My grandma told me so!" She blushed when she saw Kris, "Ah! I'm sorry! Granny Audrey nearly forgot about this bracelet and wanted me to give it to you. I used my traveling potion to help me get here. I hope that's alright!" Blake heard the noise from Kris's room and ran past the teens who may or may not have talked to him. He busted down the door and stepped in, "Get away from him bitch!" The teenage witch jumped, "Oh! I'm sorry! I didn't mean to cause a ruckus. I can fix that door. I know just the right spell." Blake suddenly found himself dumbfounded as he saw her rosy cheeks, blue eyes, and dyed purple hair. He was blushing without realizing it. Immediately, he cleared his throat. He stormed over, "You shouldn't even be here. Who are you?" "Uh...I'm Granny Audrey's granddaughter. I overheard you and Ortiz talking to her. Then she forgot about the bracelet so she told me to come here and give it to Kris. Only I didn't know he was in his bedroom. I know that's supposed to be private." Blake crossed his arms and gave an annoyed look, "Well you did your mission. Now, you can leave." She shyly left the bracelet on the bar before rubbing her eyes, "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to upset anyone." Blake's eyes widened, "What?! Wait a minute! Don't cry! It's just..." He always knew how to handle danger but never knew how to talk to a girl. --- Luis sighed, "Fine. If you really think I can somehow charm him despite everything." Dick frowned. He stood from the bench and clenched his fists, "It's my fault. I'm sorry. You're only feeling that way cause I brought all this on you. After this operation, I have to go! I'll do my time. I don't want you near me if it means putting your life at risk like that. I know you coppers risk your lives all the time but this seems different. I rather not give you better chances on that." --- Raven blissfully smiled, "We could teleport to a store and take some stuff." Though over the idea of ending the whole world, he didn't really think stealing was such a bad idea. --- Death nodded as he accepted the passes, "Thank you. My only concern is if Conrad will forgive Raven after all that he has done." He bit his lip, "Would it be too much to ask that you inform Conrad of Raven's actions? I imagine he is ignorant to what has occurred recently." --- Gabriel rolled his eyes and leaned against the bars, "Well for starters. He's actually helping Death with the whole getting those two kids back together business. And he's not trying to kill anyone unlike you!" He scoffed, "Honestly Raguel, do you really think I'm going to talk to you like you're Dr. Phil and spill the beans about everything? As far as I'm concerned, Lucifer was a great match for Lilith. Those two were really peas in a pod. Not that Adam was a good egg. He sure has a mouth on him." --- James blushed at the sight of her shirtless. He pulled his shirt off and tossed it. "Do I look alright...to you?" Despite his shyness, he couldn't seem to understand that his muscular chest would get any eyes on him.

Carter couldn't help but laugh, "Never thought I'd be keeping things private again like before. Guess it's not too bad. I get you all to myself." He kissed his neck. Leaving hickeys there. --- Elliot walked over with his homemade burgers. One was in a separate plate since it had to be raw for his new werewolf diet. "Then we'll keep our ears clear. Can't wait to see everyone!" Vincent smiled. He picked his plate, "And the adorable children." --- Ortiz reluctantly let him go. At her question, both men's eyes widened. When they learned it was a joke, Ortiz growled under his breath. Blake nervously chuckled. Blake had a beaming smile, "Thank you ma'am." --- Ortiz and Blake appeared wherever Kris was. Blake handed him the potion, "She said a few drops should do." Ortiz crossed his arms, "Pesky brat." "I wouldn't have had to show up if you didn't break one of her things." Blake threw a candy in his mouth. Chewing it happily. Ortiz wasn't jealous anymore. He was furious. Annoyed at this boy's capabilities. He wrapped his hands around his neck. Blake smirked, "What are you going to do? Kill me? Sir won't like that." "Damn it Kris! Can't you see he's trying to get on your good side?! He's clearly messing with me!" --- Luis sighed, "It ain't just you I'm worried about. It's my friend over at the next precinct down. I've been meaning to ask him out but never had the courage. And now after all this? I don't know if he'll give it a thought. I have to tell him everything. By the end of that, I don't know if he'll even want to talk to me." He gave a nod, "So I'll help. But after this, don't be surprised if I get fired." Dick replied, "Normally I would be but you don't seem like yourself. So, what is it? You can tell an Australian like me!" He winked. --- Raven followed the sign leading to the market. "Let's hope they have something here. Keep an eye out for a shop that has stones." --- Death sat next to Andi. He spoke, "Tell me Andi. Should I have eliminated Raguel despite Azrael's pleas?" --- Gabriel rolled his eyes, "You were muttering in your sleep. Me and Uriel heard you saying sorry to Lilith. We figured you might have had some real fun time with here a long time ago." --- James bit his lip. He wasn't sure how to put but finally said it, "I want to be naked with you. I want to get close to you. Can you take me to that point in love?"

Carter smirked at Sebastian. Once they were both on the couch, he wrapped his arms around him and kissed him deeply. --- Vincent nonchalantly waved, "There's no need to do that. I could take us there myself. Just tell us where the picnic is going to happen." --- Blake's eyes widened at the sight of her snorting those crystals. He quickly cleared his throat, "I came here for a love potion. Kris needs it so he can trick a Succubus to fall in love with him. You see, she's trying to take his soul. And he also needs objects that can protect him from her spell. Whatever it is that makes her hot." Ortiz grabbed his wrist, "You insolent child! Kris doesn't need to bring a brat to help me!" Blake glared as he clenched his fists, "Don't do this in front of Auntie." He wouldn't want to cause a scene but would defend himself if he had to. --- Luis grit his teeth, "And after that? Will any of you look at me the same way?" Bitter tears left him. "After everything?" Dick pushed him back, "Whoa! Something tells me your head's on wrong. How about we stop for a minute and talk?" He gently brought him to the bench where they both sat. "Now, care to explain your thoughts?" --- "It wouldn't hurt to start looking into town. I'm sure we'll find something." Raven stepped out of the throne room and headed through the exit of the castle. Knowing Lily would follow behind. --- Gabriel blushed, "No! I was getting to that!" He disappeared. Death followed Uriel. "I am pleased that you have accepted this idea. I would advise you to tell Raguel of his banishment from my realm once he is sane enough to understand such a notion." --- Gabriel appeared at Raguel's cell. "Alright! Talk! We heard you talking in your sleep about Lilith. Did you do the dirty with her or what?" He winked. "You lucky dog." --- James said, "I'd like to know more about my DNA if you don't mind. The culture that I would have had." His face became completely red when she planted those kisses. He cleared his throat, "I think I'm supposed to do something too?" He caressed her cheek. "Only if I'm allowed to."

Carter smiled, "I wouldn't mind taking him in if he was ok with that. I still want him to be comfortable with us." --- Vincent nodded, "I don't see why not." Elliot spoke, "Hell yeah! I can whip something up for the picnic too!" --- Blake nodded, "Ok sir." He took a deep breath and imagining himself in the shop. Ortiz had been gathering the items needed to protect Kris when he had accidentally knocked over a potion. Causing the old shop owner to give him a lecture. Blake appeared in the middle of it and nodded, "Hello ma'am. My boss told me you might like this." He handed the pouch to her. "Sorry about the mess. I'm sure Ortiz didn't mean it." Ortiz glared at the boy. Wishing he had the opportunity to drag him out and beat him. --- Luis stepped out of the stall. He glared, "Are you kidding me? I get killed by that son of a bitch and he's getting a fucking VIP ticket?!" Besides being angry, he seemed upset as his voice showed. "No one cares anymore about each other. At least they don't care for me. All I ever tried to do was the right thing!" He punched a mirror. "It's not right!" Dick followed Henderson. "Hey sexy nerd, everything alright in that head of yours?" --- Gabriel smirked, "You're full of surprises lately. Alright Raguel. I won't let you down." He stepped back from the cell, "I'll try to see what I can do for you, Father." He disappeared. --- Raven thought for a moment, "A medallion. Something to keep him safe or harness his power into one spot so that he can have a better chance at fighting. I don't suppose they have some rocks around here that I could examine? I need to find the right stone and sense it's power." --- Gabriel appeared in the office. "Oh! God damn it Uriel! I wanted to help out!" Death couldn't help but smirk, "I see I am watching children still. Nevertheless, I request that Raven may visit his lover Conrad. It has come to my attention that his beloved is in Heaven. Would a meeting be possible?" --- James parted from the kiss, "Pheromones? I have something that smells? Is it a bad smell?" Not understanding his own ancestry, he was more worried on trying not to smell terrible in front of her.

Carter chuckled, "So long as we're not interrupted." He lifted Stevie off the couch and headed upstairs. Placing him on in the guest bedroom. He pulled the covers over Stevie before instinctively kissing his head like he use to do to his kids. He quietly stepped out of the room and carefully closed the door. "Hope we can help that kid. I don't want to leave him in the dust. I imagine my kids growing up to be his age and wondering what I would have done for them." --- Vincent was crocheting a potential scarf while Elliot was fixing up lunch in the kitchen. The TV was on cartoons for Neva sitting on the floor with her markers and more teen oriented coloring book. Vincent looked up from his work, "Ah Amelia! What can we do for my dear sister?" --- Blake returned the smile. His heart suddenly filled with hope. He raised a fist, "I'll bring her down too!" --- Will nodded, "Just use your head. I know you're eager to take down this operation as much as I am but we still need to be cautious." He turned to Lang, "Talk to Luis for me, will ya? I need someone to calm him down long enough to help us out with this." He nodded at an Angel officer, "Heal him real quick. We're going to get into gear and have him lead us there. Everyone! Get strapped up! We'll be taking the SWAT vehicle!" --- Gabriel raised a brow, "You're really weird sometimes. You never told me that you saw me as anything but a soldier. And for some reason, people think that you see me as your son? Now, you want me appointed? I think whatever made you different has really messed with your head. You probably absorbed someone else's powers." --- Death parted from the group hug. "Now, I must discuss matters in Heaven. I shall do my best. In the meantime, would either one of you please keep Azrael in company every now and then? He needs his spirits to be raised. The unfortunate scene has made him quite melancholy." Raven smiled, "Of course. We could make him a present!" Death chuckled. He placed his hands on their heads, "My wonderful children. I know you'll do well." He walked over to Andi, "Let us leave." --- In Heaven, Death would find himself standing across from Uriel at Raguel's office. "I assume you are temporary or officially taking over? I wish to discuss an important matter if you are not too busy with the chaos in your realm." --- James continued the kisses. Running his hand through her hair so naturally despite not knowing what he was supposed to do in this moment. The touch of her hair was comforting and soft. "It feels like everything is still right now. I want it to be still forever."

that's ok. I'm just glad everyhing's alright

Carter smiled, "You're right. I guess we could keep watching some TV. Or I could put him in the guest bedroom first so he can get some rest in bed. I can't imagine sitting on a couch is the best way to sleep." --- Kite placed the bib around Baby Carter and held him close as he brought the bottle to his mouth. Still sitting on the floor, he held a beaming smile, "That sounds great. We can make a couple of things for the picnic. It really wouldn't be a problem." --- Ortiz nodded before disappearing. Blake shuddered, "Love? You can't be serious. Are you saying she might start living here?" --- Luis's eyes widened at Henderson's willingness to die for Dick. He grit his teeth and lowered his weapon. Silently, he stormed to the men's restroom and locked himself in a cubicle. His own angry confused thoughts sweltering in his mind as a tear or two left him. Dick forced himself to stand up. He looked at Henderson, "Why? You didn't have to do that. After all the shit that I've done to you? You could have just let me die. I don't doubt any one of you coppers can read my thoughts. You'd be able to find that place on your own." Will replied, "Luis has every right to be angry but he doesn't know how things work now. How people can change. He's a bit of a hardass. I was always proud of him for that. But I guess, I didn't teach him enough about empathy." --- Gabriel sighed before speaking, "Hey there Raguel! Just wanted to ask a couple of questions. First being, what the hell happened back there? I know you can get pissed off sometimes but that looked completely different." --- Death nodded, "It'll be good to have you, Andi." He turned to Lily, "Fear not. He is resting in my chambers as he has been wounded from a battle. He shall stay there until he feels well enough to move about again." Raven glared. His eyes glowed, "He was going to try to kill me, wasn't he? It's true then! I didn't have a choice in my surrender!" He raised his hands and shot his powers at Death. Death simply raised his hand and reduced the blast to ash. He stepped down from his throne, "You are correct. Had you not surrender then many realms would have continued to hunt you down. However, I would have continued to defend your character and stop them from harming you. For I know what it means to be singled out amongst the rest." He lowered himself to Raven's height. "I know what it means to feel the loneliness of decay." He touched his shoulder. "It is why I took both of you in. For I love you as the children that have been brought here despite the situations." Raven's eyes stopped glowing. He couldn't believe for a moment that he was hearing those words. Yet, when Death's warm smile had shown itself, he hugged him tightly with tears in his eyes. --- James couldn't help but chuckle. "May...I want to stay with you because of you. Even if you're going to be busy, there will still be times when you're off duty. I would risk my own life to save yours. I don't want you to be alone. In fact, I don't want to be alone." He caressed her cheek. "I want to love you even when there is pain." ---

Carter replied, "Tell Charles I know a good spa place around here. He might need to forget and let a professional hit those nerves. I barely started going and the lady there is amazing." Once Amelia was gone, Carter looked at Sebastian. "Should we wake him now?" --- Kite was playing with his babies. Making funny faces and doing a usual peek-a-boo moment. He turned to the scent of Amelia, "Hey there!" He hugged her like the jolly dad he had become. "It's so good to see you. How have things been?" --- Ortiz nodded. He flushed at the question and awkwardly smiled, "Uh not unless you have the resistance of a sad virgin. Apparently, you just have to resist her spell. Though that's never easy for anyone. I'm not sure how anyone can resist her if she's that powerful." --- Luis's wings sprouted. He stormed over to Henderson and jabbed his finger against his chest, "You are an officer! We don't agree with criminals! Did you forget that he killed me?!" He walked over to Dick and grabbed his arm. Twisting and pulling at an odd angle. Dick cried out. Will suddenly appeared and kicked Luis back. Dick felt a sigh of relief as his arm was free. He clutched it close. Will gave a determined look, "Stay down Luis. I know what has happened. However, we need him to give us the location of the place." "And after that?! You were going to give him immunity? He fucking killed me! Don't you even care?!" Luis glared. Will clenched his fists, "As your Chief, I order you to stand down." Luis pulled out his gun, "Make me." --- Gabriel was in disbelief. He hadn't expected to hear something like that. "I guess I could talk to him. But...why the hell did he never tell me this shit?" --- Death bent down and gently kissed him, "It is alright Azrael. Despite what has happened, you did the right thing. Do not change your ways. Now, I shall head to Heaven once more to discuss the possible meeting between Raven and his lover." He stepped outside, "Sleep well." Closing the door behind himself, he appeared in his throne room. He called out, "Will a reaper care to guard me in Heaven while I consulate the Angels? I have business up there." --- James looked around and wasn't sure what to make of this moment. Was he supposed to do something special? But it seemed like the answer was no. So, he sat next to her and found himself holding her close. Feeling happy for once in his immortal life. He ran a hand through her hair. "Your hair is beautiful and smells nice."

Carter listened to Sebastian then frowned, "I'm not sure what he likes. We barely got lucky calming Stevie down." --- Blake raised his shoulders and nodded, "Yes sir." He followed Kris to a room that seem to be a place to make plans. Ortiz had several books on Hell and its creatures. One chapter explained Sex Demons and their capabilities of gaining power by sleeping with mortals in order to steal their souls or energy. Giving them a greater feat at their abilities." Ortiz kept the book at that page and handed it to Kris, "She's a demon alright. A Succubus The only way we have a chance against her is by tricking her into believing that you love her and gain her trust. After that, you unfortunately have to have sex with her but afterwards, you can kill her and she should be gone for good. Or if you want to make her your servant, there are various holy items that can be used as a metaphorical and literal chain. A necklace with a cross or a bracelet blessed by a priest. It would be like a wristband against her abilities. Trapping her as a mortal. The necklace could only cause her harm if you so choose it to so that you can still use her powers for yourself." Blake raised a brow, "Please tell me we don't have to go with Plan Sex? I know I'm not volunteering but it still sounds awkward considering our last interaction with her." --- Dick opened his mouth to speak when an officer suddenly appeared in the backseat. It was Luis Andres. The very same officer that he had killed a few days ago. Luis placed his hands both men's shoulders. Tightening his grip, "How about stopping the car and stepping out? I've got to deal with the fucker. And Henderson? I expected better from you." The car would stop at the startling reveal of Luis. He stepped out of the car and yanked the passenger door opened. Dick's eyes widened. Worried about the angry look on Luis's face. Luis grabbed Dick and shoved him against the wall. Being able to lift a man like that before would have been impossible. Since he became an Angel, he had plenty of powers to use. "Meet me at the precinct, Henderson. I want everyone to see this." Luis suddenly appeared inside the building. He threw Dick at his own desk. Dick cried out and found himself bleeding from his head. Luis glared, "I die and this is what the NYPD becomes? A slave to the crooks that we've been taking down?!" --- Gabriel waved his hand, "Give me a break! We were close once but this guy is clearly off his rocker. I've got no sympathy for that." --- Death was about to leave but stopped at his words. "Not anymore. At first, I was. Yet, if it hadn't been for you, I would have destroyed him." He turned to face him. "As much as I believe he deserves to perish, I would not want to upset you my love." He frowned, "I did lose myself in the moment. I must apologize for that." --- James nodded, "Of course. I can stand guard." He stood up with her. "Unless you can show me another thing that humans do?" Thought it might have sounded like it, there was no hint at anything sensual. Only curiosity on what humans liked to do.
