Last Chapter...

Lucifel's mood change for worst as he still hasn't seen his twin and now he had to deal with her. "Do you want me to prepare your bath?" The girl ventured with her hopes high. "No, I am alright." The dark haired prince cut in before she started asking more questions. He was tired of her, but maybe she could tell him where his beloved twin was. "Baal... Where is Michael?" The dark haired angel asked the blond girl casually, but the apprehension was evident in his eyes.

Chapter 10: Contact

He took a large amount of air into his lungs again bringing the familiar feeling of being the first breath in a long time. But this time, the task wasn't that painful as his body was slowly healing the broken ribs.

His mind was groggy, but this time he half an idea of what had happened to him. He died again and probably was revived by Saraiel as she was the only healer in the team. Besides, he was sure the rest of the team wouldn't mind if he left the world of the living forever.

"Michael!" He heard his name being said by a far and familiar female voice. "Michael, wake up now!" The same female voice said more strongly as something soft hit slightly his left check. "Michael! Wake up!"

He opened his eyes to see everything blurry and had to blink several times to clear his view. Just as he thought, Saraiel was all over him trying to wake him up while the rest was nowhere to be seen. "You are awake!" The platinum haired girl exclaimed with a relieved smile on her face. "Are you alright? Do you have any pain?"

"I am fine, I think." Michael answered in a raspy voice and as soon as those words left his lips the girl in front of him transformed. The transition from worried sick to furious was instantaneously as she remembered all the hours she spent reviving the red haired teen.

"Could you tell me why are you taking the hobby of dying every single morning?" The platinum haired angel exclaimed angrily as she didn't need to be worried about the fiery teen anymore. He looked very alive and he himself said that he felt fine. "I have been working on reviving you for three hours nonstop. Why are you doing this to me?" The platinum haired girl continued rambling on as Michael looked at Crocell confused, but Crocell just shrugged off.

"Now do me a favor and stop dying, you are going to kill me from stress." Saraiel finished reprimanding him in a better mood as she spent all her frustrations.

Michael looked at her curiously and surprisingly, he didn't explode. It was refreshing and completely new for him to see someone else, beside Lucifel and Baal of course, get worried about him. He felt touched and in good spirits as this situation never had happened before. Maybe he wasn't destined to be hated, mistreated and completely alone after all.

"Now that you are finally awake, it's time for you to eat." Saraiel said in a happy tone as she brought him some food. "Crocell go and take a bath. I still need to bandage you two and it takes time. We have a meeting with the rest of the team in two hours and we can't delay it any longer. "

The taller angel took his time to rise from his bed, take his new clothes and disappear in the bathroom. Michael was finishing his food as Saraiel put on his bed new fresh clothes. "When he gets out is your turn." The platinum haired girl said pleasantly as she left the room without another word.

Half an hour later, Crocell entered the room fully dressed signaling that it was Michael's turn to use the bathroom. The process was similar and half an hour later Michael was again in the room but without his shirt as he had a thick and wet bandage carefully surrounding his ribs.

Minutes later, the platinum haired girl entered the room again. Both boys noted that she took a shower too as her hair was still wet and wore new fresh clothes. "Let's change those bandages." The platinum girl said as she approached the fiery teen with her medicine bag.

It took her an hour to finally finish changing the wet bandages to fresh ones of both angels. She was happy to see that both boys had healed fast enough to be able to walk with slight discomfort. She wasn't expecting this to happen that sooner but it was a pleasant surprise anyway.

The team used one of the empty bedrooms as the meeting room since Saraiel didn't want the wounded boys to check yet if they could resist walking down the stairs. Everyone was already seated in a chair when the three angels entered inside the designated meeting room.

The room was very alike the rest of the bedrooms in sizes, distribution, decoration and color. The only difference was that it had only one bed as the second one was in Saraiel, Crocell and Michael's room. The other four team members added several chairs in the room be more comfortable as they needed to discuss several things that could require time. The chairs were distributed around the bed as it was intended to be used as an improvised meeting table.

As everyone seated in their respective chair, Nelchael began the meeting. "Guys, there are several things that need our attention as we are stuck in a desolate planet with a pending mission and no possible way to contact Heaven or get back."

The blond haired angel stops to look at each member. Everyone had a bored expression on their face, except for Saraiel and Parkael. While, the platinum haired girl was actually paying attention to what he was saying, the pink haired boy was distractedly fixing his hair.

"The only good thing is that we can get food as the planet has water and vegetation. Besides, Germael found in the kitchen some pills that with water and a heating machine can transform into food." Nelchael continued his boring monologue and was rudely interrupted by Iciriel.

"Could you get to the point? You are boring everyone to death." The dark haired girl said eager to cut all the babbling. "Alright, what you all suggest to do then?" Nelchael answered angrily.

"I think that we should continue with mission and find on the way, any possible mean to get back home." Germael said easily, making the blond haired angel angrier as he felt that he was losing the control of the team again. He really hated the tall brown haired angel.

"Everyone agree with the suggestion?" The blond haired angel said as he barely contained his anger. "Sure!" everyone agreed as it was the most rational thing to do.

Michael remembered he had his phone with him, but didn't say anything as he tried earlier to call his twin in a video conference and it didn't work. The phone had the frontal glass broken and the device wasn't functioning correctly since crash accident. He still hoped that at least it could receive his twin's calls.

"Alright, let's check the mission parameters..." The blond haired angel continued with the meeting but was cut by Crocell. "Wait a minute... You are the team leader and you haven't check the mission yet?" questioned the orange haired male harshly.

"Oh, Father! You didn't!" exclaimed Germael perplexed. "What do you expect; he is a stupid blond after all." Iciriel answered heatedly. "Who are you calling stupid, bitch?" Nelchael said to the black haired girl angrily.

"Guys, stop arguing. It won't help us find a solution to our predicament." Saraiel intervened hoping that they would stop fighting and focus on the matter at hand. Sadly, It didn't happen. "No one is talking to you whore..." Nelchael shouted at the platinum haired girl angrily as one more time she tried to take his leading position.

He approached the girl with two intentions in mind. His intentions were to hit the girl and put her in place, but got a surprise as another contender rose from his sitting position and went to aid the platinum haired girl. This contender was very dangerous even if he was alone and could inspired fear in the strongest warriors without putting much effort.

"What the fuck are you trying to do, sissy? What's the matter? Do you have issues with power?" Michael shouted back at Nelchael. This action, not only froze the blond haired angel right in the spot, but also froze the other three angels as well.

The blond haired angel was perplexed as it was the first time a soldier of lower rank had the balls to talk to him with such a commanding power. The other three angels recognized the dangerous change in his mood as they liked to flare his temper whenever they could. This was the time to make a save retread.

"And you three shut the fuck off; I am tired of your stupid rambling." The angered teen continued scolding the other three angels, but they kept their thoughts shut since Michael's temper flared. "Now you four, stop being useless and give me the damn folder. I will not tolerate any misbehaving."

The fiery teen sent a deadly glare in Nelchael's direction as he tried to protest. "And I don't care who the fuck is the fucking leader. I am in charge now and all of you will have to deal with it or be burned! Understand?" The fiery teen stopped the harsh scolding to look at each of them. He noticed how they squirmed under his intensely gaze. "Now, sit and be quiet."

The four angels did as he said and even Nelchael gave him the folder. Michael began to inspect the folder while Parkael was fixing his nails. He continued to act as if nothing had happened at all while Saraiel was seated in her chair looking sadly at the floor.

After several minutes of complete silence, Michael exclaimed angrily. "This fucking shit doesn't have anything useful. I thought those bastards said that everything we needed was here."

"What?" everyone exclaimed in unison. "It only says that we need to get a journal, a black metallic box and a thin silver box." The fiery teen clarified deep in thought. "Is that all it says?" Germael asked the red haired teen with a contemplative glance. "Yes." It was the fiery teen's only reply.

"What do you suggest to do?" The brown haired angel asked again. Everyone moved their sight to look at Michael as he carefully chose their next move. "We will have to check the whole city and see if we find a clue or something that will help us contact Heaven." Michael stopped to looked at everyone in case there was an objection, but surprisingly everyone seemed to agree with him.

"Crocell, Parkael and Germael will search for more food supplies, Iciriel and Nelchael will search for a way to transport on earth, and Saraiel and I will search for healing supplies and something that could help us communicate with Heaven." He made a pause in order to give the folder to the platinum haired girl.

"Keep it save in case we could need it later on" Michael spoke directly to her and them continued with the rest of the team. "After that, we will reunite here and from there we will decide where to go." The fiery angel finished giving the instructions and everyone rose from their seats to work on their respective task.

In Heaven, the atmosphere in the house was deadly tense as Baal's cheerful attitude died the moment those three words escape Lucifel's lips. "Where is Michael?" It was like getting splashed with a bucked of cold water.

It wasn't fair, the only time Lucifel acknowledge her was when she was with Michael and it was Michael the one that actually included her in the conversation.

It seems that it didn't matter how far he was, he still manage to stay in the dark beauty's mind. "Baal, where is Michael?" The dark haired angel asked again bringing her back to reality. His tone of voice was still neutral but his eyes told a different story. He was worried and was getting impatient as time passed.

"Maybe if I change the subject he will actually leave it there and pay attention to me." The girl thought trying to convince herself that that could actually happen. "Do you want a pie? I made one a few hours ago." The girl said smiling seductively. She was very beautiful but subconsciously Lucifel still found his fiery twin more gorgeous.

"Baal, you need to focus. Where is Michael?" The dark haired angel said patiently even though he was barely containing the frustration he felt. "What is wrong with her? It's like she doesn't want me to know where my twin is." The dark haired angel thought annoyed as he contemplate the situation. "He is not here..." The blond haired angel said with a defeated voice.

"If things keep this way, he will never be mine." Baal thought gloomily as she recognized how futile it was to think she could win when the other contender was none other than Michael himself. He may not notice but it was difficult to exceed him in anything as he always manages to turn the tables to his advantage in the last minute.

Every single female angel and most of the male angels wanted to have Lucifel's heart but Michael beat them to it and the worst part was that he didn't even tried.

"I can see that." Lucifel stated ironically as his bad mood flared. "It is like she's trying to separate him from me... Maybe she likes Michael..." The dark haired angel thought darkly only to freeze immediately in the spot as he contemplates this new revelation.

Something dangerously dark invade him making his blood to boil, his anger to rise and his murderous thoughts to race. "Now, tell me WHERE IS HE?" He asked now visible mad as he couldn't contain his feelings any longer.

"I don't know..." The girl lied trying to placate his murderous aura while, at the same time, tried to avoid giving him the information he wanted to know. Sadly for her, he didn't take the bait. "Well if you are not going to tell me, I will have to find it myself" Lucifel said with finality as he walked out of the kitchen in the direction of the main doors.

"He went to a mission!" The blond girl exclaimed in desperation as she didn't want him to be mad at her. He could end her friendly relationship with the fiery teen and she still needed Michael to be able to reach the dark haired prince.

"Where was the mission's destination?" The dark haired angel asked eagerly as all his anger and murdering thoughts were left behind.

"He went to a planet name Imperia with a team." The girl finally admitted it. Lucifel didn't waste any time and ran as fast as he could to his room leaving a perplexed Baal behind. "Hey, where are you going? Lucifel wait!" But her pleas weren't heard by the tall angel as his priority was to locate his twin.

When he reached his room, he closed the door and turned the whole room into a mess as he searched for the damn phone. After fifteen minutes of search, he finally found the phone and touched several buttons call his twin in a video conference, but the call ended abruptly.

He was getting angry and desperate. "What am I going to do?" The dark haired angel thought frustrated as he sat in his messed bed. "Let's try a simple phone call." Lucifel decided to see if this option worked and wasn't disappointed as the phone began to ring. The waiting was killing him as he just wished to receive an answer from his beloved twin.

"Hello?" The soft voice of his beloved twin answered the call giving some peace to his overloaded nerves. "Brother" Lucifel said with a relieved tone.
