Forgive, O Lord,
my little jokes on thee...

Zeke then realised that there was a good chance he interrupted Casey caring for Ash, and immediately felt a little guilty. However, he pushed that out of his head for now, and looked at Kelly.

"We need to make sure you can defend yourself." he told her.

"And you also need to lay low." he went on.

"The best case scenario is that they ignore you and you fly under their radar." he said. "The worst case is a coordinated attack on you." he said further.

"But we need to maximise your chances of survival."

...and I'll forgive thy
great big one on me.

Kelly nodded.

"Would it be better to stay here with the psychos, or home with the hunters?" She asked.

"... and is my Aunt useful at all? They're just souls, aren't they?" Followed up a second or two later.

"Would her necromancy be anything that could be useful?"

"I don't know as far as your aunt goes." Zeke admitted. "Fallen are... weird." he muttered. "But with Emelie gone, the balance has been thrown into whack. WHo even knows if the rules regarding those things even APPLY anymore?" he asked rhetorically.

"As for where it would be better for you... that is a good question." he then said.

"Hunters are strong, but Fallen... especially if they are banding together... will be something else entirely." he continued. "I don't know exactly how much of a chance they'll stand." he sighed.

"Draydins, on the other hand, are nature spites. And vicious, at that." he reasoned.

"Part of me really wants to say that their unpredictable nature, and their penchant for violence will be more of a deterrent, should any Fallen find out where you are." he concluded.

Kelly nodded.

"I'll talk to Luke, see if he thinks his foliks will let me stay here." She commented.

"We'll see. Anyway, why didn't you just call me?" She asked, her voice curious.

"I'm reasonably certain you didn't actually have to come out here."

"I did have to come out here." Zeke said.

"I tried calling you. Several times." he told her.

"You didn't answer." he said further.

"So I went to your home and pounded on the door until your Aunt answered, and told me you were HERE." he continued. "Then, after warning her about this situation, she directed me here, so I came here." he went on.

"...where I rang the bell and was promptly attacked by a snake, until Lily calmed it down and directed me up here." he then finished.

Kelly looked confused for a moment before grabbing her phone. After a minute, she just sighed.

"Ah. Battery died." She commented.

"I think I just need a new phone. This battery dies way too fucking quickly." She muttered before shaking her head and looking to Zeke.

"Sorry about that."

"At least you're okay." Zeke said.

"That's what I was concerned about." he told her, as Lucas suddenly appeared at the top of the stairs.

"Eh?" he muttered.

"What's going on here? Zeke?" he asked.

"Is something wrong?" he asked further.

Zeke just sighed and looked at Kelly.

"Tell him as much or as little as you feel he needs."

"No sweat. If I'm asking to crash here for the foreseeable future, I'll have to give him SOME infomration at least." Kelly told Zeke before looking to Lucas.

"Yo, babe. Tell me. How's the planet doin'?" She asked simply.

"And if you don't know, it'd be grand if you could check."

"The planet?" Lucas asked, raising an eyebrow.

"I... well..." he started to say, before pausing.

"I haven't checked as of late..." he admitted, before going to the small garden they had on the roof and touching one of the plants... and then recoiling almost immediately.

"HOLY-!" he exclaimed.

"What the HELL is this imbalance!?"

"It's sounding like an archangel is now a fallen angel, Emelie is outright missing, and those involved with angels are very likely in danger. Think I can hide out here for a bit? Considering I'm close ish with Zeke, and I have Exclaibur and all." Kelly commented, or asked, candidly.

"Because there's a theory that while my parents are good, as is my aunt and Evan, the unpredictability of your Mother and sister would be far better in keeping me safe. And you, as well." She added.

"So, care to find out if that's cool?"

Lucas was stunned at the dump of info, before snapping back to reality.

"Ah, got it." he said.

"I'll... I'll go do that now." he told her, before racing down the steps again.

Zeke watched him go, and then looked at Kelly once more.

"That being said, I really hope you've been training on your own." he told her.

"And I mean REALLY keeping up on it."

Kelly nodded.

"I am." She told him honestly.

"taken to sparring with Demi, Rocky and Darrell." She added.

"I mean... hell." She then said with a light smirk before holding her hand out toward where the blade was and snapping her fingers. Moments later, the sword itself undug itself from where it was and spoed over to her, resting in her hand.

"I can call it without a thought."

Zeke raised an eyebrow when he saw that, and let out a low whistle.

"Impressive." he said.

"Yeah, you've got a good handle on it." he told her.

"...let's hope you never have to properly defend yourself with it." he then said further.

"But let me know if you feel like you're in danger." he continued.

"I'll arrive to back you up."

"Reasonably sure I wouldn't need to." Kelly said with a light sigh.

"Unless they can interfere with it, this thing is basically sentient. It knows how close we are, and I think the sword would call for you." She told him honestly.

"Tis my guess, at least." She added."ButI really have no idea."

"I really don't ever want to find out, either."

Zeke just shrugged.

"Not many people know what Excalibur's real potential and capabilities are." he said.

"I can only think of one, and... well... she's missing." he lamented,

"But it makes sense it would call out if you were in real danger." he then reasoned, shaking his head and looking skyward.

"...is it just me, or does the sky look darker?" he asked, causing Kelly to look up as well.

"...no?" she responded. "Looks cloudy, but that's it." she commented.

"Then the archangel in me must be seeing something others aren't. Almost like I can see the coming storm..." Zeke mumbled in response.

"... here's hoping that it isn't as bad as it seems it's cooking up to be." Kelly commented with a sigh before sliding the sword back into its sheath.

"Seriously..." She added, shaking her head lghtly.

"anyway, are you going to be ok?" She asked, concern to her words.

"...dunno." Zeke admitted.

"I'm fine right now. Not sure if I could take on a gang of Fallen if they went after me." he said.

"But I'm fine at the moment." he said further.

"Just... keep your wits about you." he told her.

"We don't know when they'll strike next, or HOW."

"You too." Kelly commented.

"Just... you too, Zeke." She repeated with a bit of a sigh.

"This is a headache, most certainly."

".... do you think we'll survive?"

Zeke didn't answer right away. He walked over to the edge of the roof, and stared into the horison.

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

"I wish I could give you a definite answer. But I can't." he told her.

"But the realms WILL unite against this." he promised.

"This threatens all of existence if it's what we think it is. And NOBODY is just going to let that happen."

"I figured you'd say that." Kelly commented.

"Would have been nice to hear a yes, butI get it. Really, I do." She told him.

"For now, I think I'm just going to go have an existential crisis in regards to the fact that I'm the one who has excalibur, and that THAT puts me in danger, nevermind Dad." She said with a light laugh.

"And I'm sure you've got shit to do anyway."
