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

Uriel was the one that reacted the most. Ash didn't really know Erica too well, and Gabe was a little distracted. But Uriel looked over towards her with a bit of shock and surprise in his tone.

"I..." he stammered.

"Yes." he then said.

"We need to put an end to this." he agreed.

"Michael's trying to usurp Emelie completely." Ash then told them. "He stole Framea Solis, and wishes to destroy the sun with it." he added.

"...terrific." Uriel growled angrily. "Does Sariel know of this?" he asked.

"I have not told her yet, no." Ash admitted, causing Uriel to take his phone out and send a text to Sariel to come there."[/b]

great big one on me.

Erica didn't say anything, didn't know what the hell it was that she was supposed to say here. What she did know, was that this was just not good, at all. They weren't waiting too long, only a couple minutes, before there was another mana beam arrival.

"Gabriel?" She asked as she saw her brother.

"What the hell is going on?" She asked, knowing that there was likely far more than she could see,

Ash and Uriel looked at each other, before they sighed.

"For starters, Gabriel and Erica were attacked by Fallen, and one got to his halo as he was attempting to escape with Erica." Uriel told her. "And he estimates he has 24 hours." he said further.

"Also, Emelie has been found." Ash then interjected. "She has been stripped of her Godly mana, as well as any and all elf mana, and had a halo affixed to her head, which scrambled her brains." he continued. "It was removed, her injuries were healed, but she's now quite paranoid and in a very sorry state, probably only trusting Gregory right now." he went on.

"Oh, and in addition to Ascalon, Michael has Framea Solis, which he intends to obliterate the sun with." he informed Sariel further.

"...and Emelie said Michael is legit attempting to usurp her." he finished.

The newest arrival was silent for a moment before letting out a string of curses in a language that only her brothers could understand.

"Well, that ain't good." She then said after a moment or two.

"Where the fuck IS the asshole though?" She then asked.

"Because, seriously. We need to find him if we're doing anything to stop him. Emelie didn't know anything about that, did she?" She asked Ash, her voice curious.

Ash just shrugged.

"Pretty sure she was doing good to remember who I was." he said.

"...she's given up, Sariel." he then said quietly. "She... she said we may as well spend our last moments being with those we love, because it's all over." he said further.

"I can't do that. I need to fight to try and make sure these AREN'T our last moments." he added.

"...but Michael's broken her spirit." Uriel mumbled. "Stripped her of her position, all her mana, left her for dead with one of those cursed halos on her head..." he listed off growing angrier with each syllable.

"We may be on our own, here."

Sariel just crossed her arms.

"Seems we need to figure out a game plan ourselves." She stated simply, plainly, and honestly.

"But I'm not the strategist." She added.

"Can someone give me a lift back to the Unit? I need to see if I can find any information at all." Erica then said, as she got to her feet.

"I cannot stay here and be useless. If nothing else, I want to get you angels the information that might be beneficial."

"Are you certain?" Uriel asked.

"Would you feel safe there?" he asked her. "From what was said, it sounded like they were targeting YOU in specific." he said further.

"Hm." Ash mumbled.

"Well, -I- can get you back to the Unit." Ash offered.

"Just... tell me when and come on over for the teleport."

Erica was silent.

"Wouldn't I be safer with everyone else, at the Unit?" She asked.

"And even then... I can get in and see if there is anything interesting or useful there easier than you lot can." She added as she made her way over to Ash.

"Just... call Sharp if you need me. I don't have my phone on me. I think I dropped it at home when we were attacked."

"Very well." Uriel responded.

"Want to briefly stop by your place to get the phone?" Ash asked her. "I promise I can fend off Fallen pretty damn well." he told her.

"E... Erica..." Gabriel then stammered.

"Be... be safe." he told her, holding back another urge.

"I... love you."

Erica was silent as she looked to Gabe.

"You two.... be the angels you are, try and help him. Please."[b] She said, pain in her voice.

[b]"I don't want to lose him, and I don't think the world should lose him either."
She added before making her way over to him a Nd just wrapping her arms around the downed angel.

"I love you, please come back to me." She said quietly before releasing him after a moment or two, and making her way back toward Ash.

"... stop at my place so I can grab a few things, and then we can get out of there. Thanks."

Gabriel managed to return the hug, and let go when she did, watching her make her way back to Ash. He angrily gritted his teeth, and cursed his circumstances, as Ash nodded at her.

"Hang on, then." he said, as she took his hand and gave him her addressed, and they disappeared in a burst of black flames.

They appeared where she had told him to, and he just sighed.

"5 minutes max." he told her.

"Grab and go."

Erica didn't say anything before heading off to collect what she could, to get what she figured she should have for a potential trip. Especially since she was reasonably certain she wouldn't be coming back there any time soon. It was a location where she knew they could find her again, so she had no intention of staying there, not for now anyway.

Sure enough, in less than five minues, she made her way down to where Ash was, a pack slung over her shoulder.

"All right. I think I got what I can get." She then said.

"Locked the doors and shit too." She added.

"Cool." Ash responded.

She then grabbed his arm, and they disappeared again, reappearing right in the receptionist's area, just off to the side of her deck, surprising her, obviously.

"Sorry about the spook, Arryn." Ash apologised. "But I figured Erica needed to speak to the boss-man here pronto." he explained, before knocking on the door to the office.

"Sorry about triggering the alarms!" he called in.

There was silence for another moment or so, before the door was opened.

"Security has been notified." Hal said in a bit of an annoyed tone, before noticing Erica.

"...Erica? Is something wrong?" he asked her.

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

"Thanks." Erica said to Ash before looking to the door that was opened, and her boss.

"I... You have a few minutes? I need to unload some stuff on you, and I really don't think you're going to like it." She said, her voice having a slight quiver, along with weight, to it.

"And ask a favour." She added, realising he likely would know what that would entail.

"..." Hal was silent, before looking to Ash.

"You have any business here?" he asked.

"Nope." Ash replied. "I was just taxiing Erica here." he told him. "I'll be out of the way now." he finished.

Hal just nodded in response.

"Come in, then." he told Erica, as she entered the room and he shut the door behind her. He then made his way behind his desk, sitting down on it, while Erica sat in one of the chairs in front of it.

"...what's happening, Erica?" Hal asked her, his tone and expression much softer and more concerned now.

Erica was silent for a few seconds before letting out a breath.

"I..." She started, not entirely sure what to say for a moment.

"They want me." She then said. "The Fallen, a group of them, invaded my home, trying to get me... End result is I'm here, and Gabe's halo was forcibly cracked by one."

Hal... did not like what he heard. He narrowed his eyes, before pinching the bridge of his nose.

"Fantastic." he snarled.

"Are YOU all right?" he asked. "Physically, anyway." he clarified.

"I am." she confirmed.

"At least there's THAT." he said.

"But Gabriel is now on the path to becoming a Fallen." he muttered further, shaking his head slightly. "We're in trouble if he actively starts to come for you." he continued.

"But we'll protect you will ALL our power." he vowed to her. "I promise."

...and I'll forgive thy

"Uriel promised to kill him at the 24 hour mark." Erica told him honestly, quietly.

"The thing is... Emelie can save him." She continued.

"So we just need to find her." Hal stated, his voice rather unimpressed, considering as far as he knew, the woman was still missing.

"Oh. No." Erica told him honestly.

"She's with the HAllowGlades."

"Oh!" Hal exclaimed.

"Well then, that's-" he started to say further, before pausing.

"...that's not fantastic, is it?" he asked rhetorically, sighing. Again.

"All right, keep the news coming." he told her.

"I get the feeling what you have to speak with me about is far from done yet."

Eriva just bit her lip for a moment.

"I..." She started before falling silent for a few seconds.

"I... I wish that we knew how ti return Emelie's mana to her." She said after a couple of seconds.
