The three of them were silent as she left, and then looked at each other.

"I have people to tell." Zeke said.

"Go." Uriel told him. Zeke didn't need to be told twice, he was gone in that instant. Uriel then looked towards Aimee, before placing his hands on her shoulders... and then pulling her into a hug.

"I promise I'll keep you safe." he said quietly.

Meanwhile, as Sariel appeared in the tiny pocket dimension that contained the bar for wandering spirits, she looked around before stepping through the doors. When she stepped inside, it seemed like everyone in there had their eyes on her, and immediately hushed in fear.

Except for one. The one sitting at the bar, slumped over a drink.

The one she was looking for.

"He may already know." Uriel responded.

"As you said, he has the strongest connection with her, chances are he's aware that she's missing." he said. "However, we don't know for certain, or what he's thinking about it." he sighed.

"But we'll need to get into contact with the reapers. ALL of them." he said further.

"And everyone else." he added.

"Everyone?" Zeke asked.

"EVERYONE." Uriel stressed. "Aimee said this is an 'all hands on deck' situation, and she's right." he told him. "All three realms will need to band together on this." he commented grimly.

"...seems rather doom and gloom..." Zeke mumbled.

"Yet it's accurate." Yuri said.

"If Michael has managed to get the Fallen to work together, then they are a very real threat to everything." he told him. "Normally the Fallen don't work with anyone. They act alone. And while they are dangerous, the Harmony can deal with them." he explained.

"If they work together, they become FAR more dangerous." he lamented.

"...great." Zeke muttered.

"Nowhere will be permanently safe." Uriel said.

"We need to have the utmost of caution from now on." he reasoned.

"Got it." Zeke replied.

Uriel then sighed and looked at his 'sister'.

"Thank you for telling us about this." he said to her.

"I don't think any of us archangels are truly safe right now."

"A valid point." Uriel said.

"Regardless, we cannot just sit here and do nothing." he then commented.

"Right, I need to get to warning people." Zeke agreed.

"Kelly first, then Angela." he said further.

"She's working right now, and I like to think she's relatively safe at the Unit." he reasoned.

"For now, should be." Uriel agreed.

Uriel nodded.

"Of course." he replied.

He then looked at Aimee.

"I promise I'll protect you." he said.

"I won't let ANYTHING happen to you." he told her further.

Zeke just looked uneasy, but it was understandable. Some serious stuff was happening right now.

"Excalibur IS a miracle sword, though." Uriel then said. "Her chances of defending herself aren't as slim as they may seem." he reasoned. "However, I share the general sentiment." he added.

Zeke just sighed.

"I need to tell Angela about this." he said.

"And warn Kelly as well." he went on.

"Damn it, why is this happening!?" he then exclaimed frustratedly.

"...because Fallen are chaos." Uriel responded. "...and chaos listens to no-one. Not even Ana."

Zeke immediately planted his palm onto his face.

"Ah." he stammered.

"Well, seems that knowledge has been spread a little more." Uriel commented.

"I'm going to ask you 'forget this'." he told Sariel. "But she discovered it in an underwater cavern in a lake somewhere." he said.

"I've been training her in wielding it." Zeke said further.

"...and yes, I'll need to warn her of this." he added.

Uriel narrowed his eyes a little when he heard that.

"He shan't have it." he said.

"If ANYONE goes for Excalibur, then they SHALL perish." he stated.

"...Emelie's missing..." Zeke said quietly.

"Without Emelie... does that mean the world will end?" he asked.

"Yes, eventually." Uriel replied. "Without Emelie's presence, the world will undergo a new Dark Ages, and it that is allowed to continue for too long, then it WILL be the end of all things."

"Damn it!" Uriel growled loudly.

"That bastard's actually doing it!" he exclaimed.

"What!? Doing what!?" Zeke asked.

"It sounds like he's trying to orchestrate a coup of Heaven." Uriel told him in response.

"A Fallen should have NEVER had Ascalon." he snarled further.

"...what happened to the Harmony member, as well as Ascalon?" he then asked Sariel.

As soon as they heard that, Uriel and Zeke's eyes hardened.

"Not if -I- have anything to say about it." Uriel said.

"I'll DIE before I let anything happen to Angela or Liv." Zeke told her.

However, before anyone could say anything more, Uriel spoke.

"You mentioned one of our brothers." he said.

"Which one?"

Uriel's expression became more concerned suddenly.

"They do." he said.

"Huh?" Zeke muttered. "Is that bad?" he asked.

"It's concerning." Uriel replied.

"It means that something is wrong up THERE." he told him, gesturing skyward.

Uriel didn't say anything at first, and then just sighed.

"Right." he said.

"Must be bad if you're seeking me out like this." he said further.

"Should Aimee hear this or no?" he asked her.

"And Ezekiel?" he asked further.

"She said I specifically should hear this, too." Zeke told him.

Gabe watched her go, and was silent for a moment, looking back into the home.

"...Erica..." he mumbled.

"...no. I refuse to lose you. I won't lose another loved one." he stated to himself.

Meanwhile, the door that Sariel knocked on was answered... but not by one of the two she was most expecting.

"...Aunt Sari?" Zeke said in a bit of a surprised tone when he saw her.

"Are you looking for Dad?" he asked.

"If so, he and Mom are out in the backyard." he told her.
