"What are you talking about?" Samael asked
"Can you not control your sister? She tried to kill Fiona!"
"She wouldn't have killed her. She's gotten attached"
Azael practically growled at him "Get out, I have to heal her before her brother decides to come looking for her"
"Why do I have to leave?"
"So you can go look for the demon you let go near the school"
Samael left then, and Azael was left alone with an unconscious Fiona. He placed his hand just above her side as it began to glow. Color started coming back to her face. Azael sat her up so that he could try to wake her. Instead Fiona fell forward and onto him. At that exact moment, a million different things went through his mind. Memories.

"We need you to lead the army through the village. You are only to deliver the message of our invasion. A warning is all. leave us to punish those who go against Hinlock."
"I understand Miru"
"Do not get carried away, as you have been known for in your last mission"
"That wasn't my fault-"
"Inna"
She huffed out a sigh as Miru stalked off. The blonde barely ever lietened to her after the massacre. 'It wasn't my fault, They tried to kill me as I slept, The soildiers just wished to protect me'.
"Caim, what are you doing?" She asked as she spotted her hidding in the trees
She jumped down right in front of Inna with admiration in her eyes. She bowed her head in show of respect.
"Awaiting orders, general" she said
"I'm sure you've already heard that discussion. Ready them to go" she paused "and stop calling me that, it's Inna. let the soldiers be formal"
"Inna" Caim said with a smile "I'll do as told"
Some time later they entered the village. Citizens lined the side of the road as they passed through. Some stared at the armed soldiers, The rest stared intently at the one leading them.
"So young, yet has shed much blood. What a shame. Such a waste of a pretty face."
Caim hissed at the old woman who spoke. 'How dare she?!'
"Caim, don't get intimidated easily. It was a mere comment" Inna said as they reached the village head's building
He stood just in front of his house while his son stood just behind him. Inna only gave him a glance before she spoke.
"This is your last warning. Give in to the Hinlock and we will leave in peace. If not then we will have to attack" Inna said "Negotiations are expected. As long as they are reasonable it will be accepted. You must choose a side now"
He hesitated before he nodded "we have to speak inside... Alone"
Caim seemed uneasy. "Do not worry, I will be fine." Inna said as she stepped into his house.

Azael was brought back to earth when Fiona stirred. He froze.
"What..?" She jumped back "Azael? what..how.."
"We can talk about this later. Your brother must be looking for you"
Fiona had forgotten all about Cody's soccer game. She hurried to grab her coat, Azael trailing behind.
