Ezekiel stopped. "Celestials used to be honorable beings.......then Michael....and then.....the newer generation......they must cleansed before they can truly see the light.....and truest darkness............." He placed a hand on his blade, and before anyone could react, all that which Eros owned shattered and disintigrated into dust, for that was the power of death, full decontruction.

Occidio sat down, "Each Arch Angel has a different sort of matter altering ability.........Inferno's is heat..........Michael's.........creation........Ezekiel.....deconstruction...........Lucifer......reassortment.........everyone has something differnt among them..........."

"That PATHETIC SCUMBAG-"
Mawthrough's face seemed to twist in rage - then his eyes met hers and the rage ceased, to be replaced by a different kind of anger.
"You forget him, you hear me? You forget him, you forget everything he said, you forget everything he did, I order you to, I don't want to see that look on your face a minute longer..."
He kissed her, stroked her, nuzzled her, did every trick he knew to get her inner fires burning for him, just for him, his woman, never his pet, his slave, but never anything as demeaning as THAT...

"What did he show you... to make you think I was dead?" he asked quietly, not sure he wanted to hear the answer...

"THAT...THAT SNAKE..."
He moved his hand to her face, moving hers away, stroking where she'd been hit, his hand trembling with anger.
"I should have hurt him more. I shouldn't have gone, I should have stayed, this is all my fault, I'm sorry..."
He kissed it better, again and again, then her lips again, then held her to his chest, almost crying with sorrow.

"I'm so sorry he hurt you... did he hurt you anywhere, anywhere else, so I can kiss it better, please tell me, oh please oh please oh please..." he begged as he wept...

At that moment, Occidio seemed to be forcefully grabbed by an unknown force, was pulled into the human realm, forced out of the heavens by the force of the life blade.

Minerva tried to chase after him, but another source of force gripped her as an extremely powerful aura moved within the heavens.

Ezekiel turns, "Something bad is about to happen in the human realm, and Michael is going to be here soon, you wouldn't want to fight him......."

He kissed her back fiercely, his tears flowing down his cheeks, his emotions stripped raw by his joy and anger coursing through him.
When he heard Ezekiel's statement, he just decided to let the world burn and dived into Lust through a portal, landing on a purple velvet couch on top of Chastity, kissing her passionately, never wanting to stop...

He clicked his fingers, and the couch became a throne. He was seated in it, and Chastity was reclined seductively across his knees as he stroked her, resting himself.
"This is my circle, now. I have complete authority over it. Now tell me, my queen, what do you want to do to forget all about that nightmare... tell me in detail...and call me your king so I know you're mine," he whispered as he nuzzled her...

Nijuu looked at Livia. "Oh goodness, I wasn't referring to you...I was talking about-"
"She was talking about me." Tynan interrupted Nijuu, as he walked towards Nijuu. "And I assure that is not my intent."
"But it is your intent to protect me." Nijuu pointed out, as she folded her arms. "I allowed you to be my protector....I do not want you to hold me back."
"Hold you back?" Tynan raised his brow. "How am I holding you back?" He demanded.
Nijuu sighed softly. "I'm sorry. I did not mean to say that." She said. "What I meant to say, is: I want you to be my protector, when it's needed....but you are also a very dear friend."
Tynan sighed quietly. "I think I understand." He said, as he bowed his head slightly. "I apologize if I over-stepped my bounds."

Another click, and the pair of them were naked in a huge bath tub, which, as Mawthrough promised, was full of chocolate ice cream with marshmallows and whipped cream piled in mountains.
"Now what do you want me to do with you, my lady... my love, my queen, my -"
He kissed her, loving her too much to resist.
"Tell me in detail... I love it when you're explicit..."

Grey had spent the entire day with Serenity, and while he trained, she watched, for he trained against a system designed to beat him, and he somehow was able to fend it off, all the while missing the signs of the slayer within himself, the signs of his inheritence from being the grandson of Occidio.

sh smiled watching her husband train
"it seems you are getting much better my love"

Grey smiled, "You think so.....that thing still kicked my ass for the most part, hehehe......." He pushed his shoulder back into the socket.

"it might have done so but you get stronger and stronger each time"
she smiled
"is your shoulder ok, do you need me to get you anything?"

Grey walked over and sat down next to her. "I'm a bit out of it.......my shoulder's fine, I can still regenerate you know.........but I love how caring you always are........."

serenity watched him as he sat next to her
"of course im caring why wouldnt i be?..you are my husband after all, the love of my life"

Grey chuckles, "I don't know, maybe sometimes you'd like to tease me to think otherwise....hmmm....."

she crossed her arms and pouted
"why would you think i would tease you about such a thing, i would never do that, not to you or anyone else"

Grey leans in and gently kisses her ear. "I know.....I know my dear..........."

she looked up at him
"whats would you like to do now my love?"

Grey looked up at the ceiling, "I don't know, maybe go for a swim somewhere......"
