"Well. You see… We were thinking that... maybe you would like to let the twins in the shadow realm, to live with Uriel, since you won't be able to look after them and concentrate on the war at the same time. I mean, we know that you care about them, but you will only put yourself in danger if you'll take them with you to Hell. Better said, you'll only end up putting them in danger, since you know how to take care of yourself."
"It's alright Emily, it has already crossed my mind to let them live with either Uriel or Azrael. Though, letting them live with Uriel, might be a better idea since the circles respect him a bit more than Azrael."
"Yup, but I wonder why?"
"Because, Azraels wings are black. He is still an angel, but he is the Angel of Death. His wings are proof of the sins of the humans who died."
"Really?"
"You didn't know? Neither of you?"
"No. No one is willing to talk about the one in charge of the human souls."
"That might be because, the Circles are hoping that no one will take his place...
"But you will, won't you?"
"Who knows. All I know is the fact that I'm slightly hungry."
"You are actually-"
"Hungry?
"Wow. Miracles actually can happen!"
"You stole my words Emm."
"Sorry, not so sorry!"
"Why you-"
"Ok ok. Enough! Let's go eat before I change my mind."
"Ok!"
"Sure!
A FEW HOURS LATER
"But it's not fair! We want to go too!"
"I'm sorry dear, but Rosemary has to go and scout that place and let us know about what is going on down there on Earth. While you two will head of to Hell with the army and make sure everything goes smoothly until Rose joins you."
"It's alright. You know that I'll be fine!"
"Fine? Fine? You actually dare to say such a thing? After coming back home with serious injuries after a "simple scouting mission"???"
"Well, that was my fault, but I had a good reason for coming back in such a state. I managed to kill one of their generals, so I didn't have a good for nothing reason for coming back so heavily injured."
"I swear! You are going to be the death of us!"
"No I won't!"
"Let's hope not, then."
"Ouch! You just hurt my heart?"
"What heart? The one made out of ice? Or better said, made of stone?"
"Enough with the chit-chatting, it's time to leave Rosemary!"
"Yes, Michael!"
"But-"
"She'll be fine! She's not a child anymore! You two should also head of as well."
"Ok."
"Fine. I guess!"
"Don't worry! I'll be back before you know it! Take care of yourselves, ok?"
"Ok!"
"But you'll have to take care of yourself to!"
"I will Emily. I will."
A FEW DAYS LATER
They are soooooo going to kill me! I so death for. I wonder just how worried and pissed of they might be.
I mean, I know that I'm late. Screw that. I'm royally late, but what can I do? At the very least, I bring good news. I managed to decimate the nephilim trups in half, almost.
They will give me a chance to explain, right?
But knowing those two, I might as well watch my back non-stop, or else I might as well start praying. No kidding, since I will get my ass kicked off.
Poor me. I wonder if I can just head for the Shadow realm and visit the twins. And let Michael send the report. And all I'll have to do, will be to wait for Emm and Emily to calm down. But if I'll do it, then I'll just be digging my grave deeper than it already is.
It's so hard being their sister. Is it too late to ask for other sisters. Even younger ones, I won't even complain when they'll ask me 100 questions per minute.
Well then. Let's just hope that everything goes well, and they'll leave me in one peace and that I won't end up without a head, thank you very much.
KNOCK KNOCK
"Enter!"
"Well, I am bringing news from Earth!"
"You must be the Commander of the Heavenly trups, right?"
"That's me! In flash and bones!"
"Rosemary Cipriano! How dare you make us worry like this??"
"Uh-oh! I'm dead!"
"Let me guess. You didn't give them any sign for the past few days and let the worry?"
"... Yes?"
"Sorry kiddo, but you digged your own grave."
"I know that already, you don't have to make it even more obvious."
"How about hiding until they calm down?"
"Asmodeus!"
"What? Come on Belphegor, what could possibly go wrong?"
"Everything?"
"We won't know unless she gives it a try! Just saying."
"He's right! You aren't helping!"
"Not you too Luce!"
"It's alright. I'm used to it!"
"Still... What will they do to you?"
"I'd rather not think about it..."
"Poor you! How about I send them away?"
"Neah! It's okay! They are worried sick and probably haven't been sleeping well for the past few days. Just let them be!"
"If you say so!"
"Yup! It's okay. Really! They just need to make sure that I'm not actually dead. Or on the deathbed..."
"What nice friends..."
"Sisters actually!"
"What?"
"They are my sisters, even though we aren't related by blood. This isn't stopping us from being sisters."
"How nice?"
"It is. Especially since-"
CRASH
"..."
"Well... can someone tell me how to get to my room? 'Cause I could really need some sleep."
"... As you wish."
"Thank you!"
"But before that, why are you so injured?
"Because I decimated half of the nephilims army."
"Good job?"
"Asmodeus!"
"What Belphegor?"
"Stop it. We'll have a healer come and tend to your wounds before you go and rest. Also, we will talk tomorrow about the peace treaty. Right Luce?"
"Yes."
"Very well then. Though, I don't really need someone to tend to my injuries since they'll heal soon enough."
