"I'm thinking we just head there - get you out of here for a few, at least - and see what they happen to have. You may be able to get one of your smoothies if you think it may be worthwhile, as well." she commented.

"I know that you don't need as often as your mom did, but I also know that it's not a flat never." She added with a light shrug before getting to her feet. She held a hand out to him.

"So come on, let's go grab something to chow down on. I really do think you need a break."

Cain was silent, and then sighed heavily.

"I want to argue that." he said.

"But... but I can't." he admitted.

"I just can't." he said, shaking his head.

"All right, all right, fine." he went on, stepping away from the journal and making his way towards her.

"Let's go." he said.

"I think I DO need a smoothie." he admitted.

She just laughed.

"Let's go then." She said, and without further delay, they headed off.

She paused as sh elooked over the results, then looked them over again. And again.

"I..." She started, not entirely sure what to say before sighing. This was... good to know, most definitely, but it wasn't good news.

She sighed, again, as she grabbed her phone and dialed a number.

"Hey... I need to talk to you." She started, "About Aedan."

The one on the other side was silent for a moment.

"I can tell by your tone that it's not good news." he said.

"All right." he went on.

"Let's talk." he said, before pausing.

"Wait, odds are this is best done face-to-face." he reasoned.

"Yes." she confirmed.

"Tell me where to meet you, and when." he responded.

"It... really is." She agreed.

"So please, come to the Unit. I'm in my office." She told him.

"As for when, whenever is convenient for you. I don't know how busy you are currently."

"Not too busy that I can't be there in 5 minutes." he replied.

"I'll see you then." he told her.

Sure enough, about 5 minutes later, he was in the med wing, and in her office.

"All right, I'm here." he said.

"Now, what's going on?" he asked.

"Were my concerns confirmed?"

She just sighed lightly.

"Az... she's dying." She told him bluntly and plkainly after he'd taken a seat.

"And I don't know why, I don't know what is the cause. I can't figure out how to fix it, without knowing the cause." She then continued before sighing.

"I'm sorry... I'm so sorry, but... I don't think she'll last a month." Her voice was quiet, sombre. It wasn't hard to tell that she didn't want to say this, but that she knew she had to.

Azazel's hands clenched into fists, and she could tell he was angry. Angry and sad.

".....I figured." he then said quietly.

"I remember that she said something like that. But it's been so long, it's faded from relevance." he went on.

"...damn it all." he then cursed.

"Just... damn it." he repeated.

"I don't want to lose her, Angela."

Angela was silent for a moment before biting the inside of her cheek.

"I'm going to do all I can to stop this from happening, but... I'm only human." She told him.

"I don't know what all I can do... you have my guarantee I will try."

"If... there's anything I can do... just... please let me know, hey? I want to do anything I can."

"....I wish you luck." Azazel said.

"I... I really do." he repeated.

"But... but I don't know if anything CAN be done." he admitted.

"...." he was then silent, and sighed.

"Angela... I..." he stammered.

"I'm... I just..." he said further, before leaning forward, resting his elbows on his knees, and burying his face in his hands.

"I'm sorry." he apologised quietly.

"I feel ready to... just break down."

Angela was silent before getting to her, making her way around her desk and grabbing his wrist. She gently pulled and led him over to a small loveseat she had, where she sat down and just pulled him to sit next to her. It would be more comfortable for both of them, she was sure.

"Hey. I'm a good shoulder to cry on." She said with a soft smile as she just wrapped an arm around him.

"You know I care about you."

"....." Azazel wasn't sure what to say here.

However, Angela saw a few tears trickle down his cheeks.

"....I know." he replied.

"And... and I appreciate it." he said.

He was then silent, before he gently leaned into her.

"I can't bear the thought of losing her, Angela..." he whispered.

Angela just held her friend, and held him close.

"I know, Az." She said quietly.

"I know." She sighed lightly as she just held him, not knowing waht to say. After a few minutes she paused.

". . . I'll see if Zeke can get any sort of information, or do anyting." She then said. "But I can't promise results."

Azazel ended up returning the embrace, and let go when she started to.

"All right." he replied.

"And I know." he said.

"Now, more than ever, we're in a situation where promises are... well... pointless." he went on.

"There ARE no certainties." he lamented.

"...and, again, it's frustrating." he finished, shaking his head slightly.

"I know... and I wish I could properly and fully help." Angela commented.

"But... do you wish to stay here, or would you prefer to head elsewhere?" She asked after a moment.

"Not to say that I'm kicking you out if you're prefer to stay here, but merely so I know."

Azazel just sighed heavily and leaned forward a little, clasping his hands together and letting his arms hang low.

"...I don't know." he said.

"I should probably head elsewhere." he reasoned.

"I'll probably go insane if I hang around here." he went on, before pausing.

"...uh... well... hm." he then mumbled.

"Actually... it might be better for me to just spend as much time with Aedan as I can." he corrected himself.

"...while she's still around..."

Angela was silent for a moment before resting her chin on his shoulder while holding him close.

"I know it's not something you wanted to hear, and I'm sorry, but... " She paused and sighed lightly.

"If you want to stay here for a little longer, feel free." She added before releasing him.

"I... need to go update Hal regarding this." She told him. "If there's anything I do to help you, Az, you or Cain... let me know. I'll also try and help Aedan not die in mass amounts of pain, as I'm sure she did originally."

"......" Azazel was silent, and nodded.

"Yeah." he said.

"Yeah, you do that." he told her.

"I'm... I'm going to... go be with Aedan." he went on.

"I'll... let you know if I think of anything." he added.

He then shook his head once more, and looked at her.

"...thanks for being there for me." he told her with a small smile.

"Anytime, Az." Angela said with a smile. "I'll let you know if I can find anything else out." She added.

After they'd parted ways, she made her way up to the head office, her steps a bit heavier as she didn't want to relay what she needed to.

As she stepped into the entry area for the office, she didn't need to say anything before the boss' receptionist was contacting him to find out if he could talk. She could see the weighted expression on Angela's face. Sure enough, after a few minutes, she was making her way into the office.

She stepped in, closed the door, and met her friends gaze.

". . . Aedan's dying.' She told him bluntly, plainly and straight to the point before he could even say hello.

Hal appeared to be... shocked and stunned to hear it.

Before he suddenly just sighed.

"Great." he said.

"Absolutely terrific." he growled.

"Let me guess... organ failure?" he asked.

"Because if it is, then whatever brought her back, did so JUST as how she was when she was alive." he commented.

"...fatal flaws and all."
