Ayelet's POV

„Wake up, it's just a bad dream!" someone tried to awakening me. From the softness of the touch I could tell it's a female's hand caressing my face. The voice was utterly familiar, calming, relaxing." Hey, sister, it's alright. Shhh!"

Soon my shaking body relaxed, my tensed muscles went back to normal.

"What happened is happened, you were fighting with your own darkness." I am glad it has stopped, although more than half was truth from my visions. I am not needed in Heaven. Earth is where I felt I belong to. "I'm here, I've been sent to you, to help find peace with yourself."

Raguel! She is still alive? Well, who dares to attack Harmony herself? Born to death idea, if someone would ask my opinion. She doesn't look like that strong, but believe me, you don't want to challenge her. That's why Chaos could never win over her, and she can't overrule Chaos too, it's an infinite battle between them.

"The Chosen One closed the amphorae of Darkness. He is strong, and he might bring Father back. The war soon will come to end." she told me what was going on outside. I moved my thumb, to sign I'm hearing what she has to say. "Michael is out there, fighting with Gabriel. Two idiots, I can't calm them, since Gabriel is full of Darkness."

What? My pulse went intense, and the machine beeped crazily. My eyes opened as if thunder would hit me. "Welcome back, Ayelet."

I couldn't talk, I was so weak yet, and the appearance of Raguel most mean the war is truly at its end. Finally, I've had enough of my brothers' stupid temper tantrums. I greeted my beloved sister with a weak smile.

"Hey, glad you're here again. Oh, Michael will be so happy to see you, if he survives crashing down buildings" she cringed over the fact how much damage we caused during the twenty-five years on Earth.

I stared at her in question.

"They are like usual, you know, fighting over daddy's attention like kindergarten-children. How pathetic!"She shook her head.

I squeezed her hand again, to sign this is not what I meant to ask.

"Ok, what do you want? Can't you write it down or something?" I tried to message with my mimics a firm no. Eh. Poor little mermaid, now I completely feel what it felt for this little girl to lost her voice. Communicating without it consumes a lot of energy and you must be creative to give the correct message.

She than called the nurses, well, the leftovers after Darkness' little affray were in wonder, that I was able to open my eyes. They don't know I am an angel, not as powerful as my brothers and sisters, but I am not easy to kill. Azrael has to go in the line if she wants to meet me.

Michael is alive I can't believe it, even though Harmony never lies. Michael made that stupid deal with obviously not Father. But who would have the gut to claim he is God himself? Does that idiot know what will the true one have for him, if he comes back? Father knows everything; he is everywhere... well, in normal circumstances.

There is one disadvantage of not being in Heaven: I can't communicate properly with my celestial family.

But listening to Raguel's hypnotic voice eased my heart. A stream of relief hardened my eyelids; I slowly closed my eyes and just let myself deepen into her words. It's so good for my overused nerves.

"Is it better now, sister? You know... I'm here for you; you could just call me in need, that's what siblings do for each other." I showed a thumb up, or better to say I tried. I love Raguel's companionship. With her we can relax, our mind is shifting into a kind of meditative state, where everything is peaceful, nothing negative can slip inside this protective bubble.

"She's sleeping now. Believe me, this is better than regular human stimulations, but it needs some time to work properly. Letting fears go is not an easy task, we angels hardly change, and old habits cannot be replaced with new ones overnight, human. After dozing off the half of the day I woke up to my sister's voice. She was talking with Shawn. I was glad he could be here, and they didn't realize I am wide awakened now.

"I see. I don't care if it takes time, I want what is best for her. Even if I have to step back and let you to take her home. Just saying I totally reject the idea but if this is the price I have to pay for her life, I do it." I sighed weakly. He is attached to me to a level where it is hard to let him go. I don't want to, but what kind of future could we have? None. He should find a decent human, mortal lady whom he can get old with and have children, and be happy. Happier than with me.

"What you feel is not against the rules, don't be afraid. You two haven't committed sin in this and thank you for that. Our family has huge loss in this war, and this second apocalypse isn't good for my sister. I have faith in her, soon Father will return too."

I wish I had as much faith as Raguel had in our Father's return. I missed dad, all of us did, and this is the only I have no doubt about. We need Father.

"Hey! She's awakened! How much have you heard?" I smiled, as Shawn sat next to me on the edge of the hospital bed, and gave a gentle kiss on my forehead. Gosh, these cords are nerve wrecking after a while. They don't let me move that much, and sitting up is also a big no-no with them. I've heard plenty of the conversation, but I had no more worries in me. With Raguel in the room, her presence filled the area, and it affected us greatly.

I'd love to be in this peace for all eternity.

"Darling, Consul Thorn could leave the intensive, she'll be healing well, thanks to you." this also was a good new after all, I am glad my best friend is alive, and it seems, my bastard brothers too. But where's Uriel? And Raphael? And the other darling angels? Aaaahgr... I want to talk normally!

"Where's my Little Star?!"The sound of Gabriel breaking through the door made my smile. Laughing would be too harsh yet. How the hospital workers will rejoice over his damage. Poor door... goodbye. I blinked a bit, in greeting him."Why are you so silent?"

"She's not able to talk yet. She's poor conditions won't allow her, it would consume too much energy." explained Raguel in my defense.

"Oh, my poor little blondie." I rolled my eyes, this nickname is sooo embarrassing. When will he learn how I hate this? "I'll kick this idiot Michael in the ass for you, sister."

Better not to.

"Haven't you got enough under the Darkness-possession? Be thankful Luc and I didn't slice you in half."

"I'd watch that show. I almost killed you."

"Ehhem. Be aware, guys, she hears everything." caught Raguel their attention.

"My silly twin, nice to meet you after a huge hide and seek." Samael! His voice gave the urge of sitting up, but I hated this cords which tied me to these life saving machines. After I can leave the hospital I'll make sure I don't have to return here ever in my existence."I brought something for you, as I promised, but next time, ask before acting, or I'll teach you a lesson, Blondie." I'm sure he calls me like this because he knows how much I hated this particular nickname of mine."Now, second deal, and no, no option to skip this. Accept the light, get your ass back to home, recover fully, and get in peace you little bastards. Deal?"

I blinked, to sign yes.

Half an hour later...

"Fuck off, Samael! Can't I decide about what I want to do?"

"Nope, sister. You're welcome." he bowed a little, and the whole room burst into laughing.

"Nah, I love you too, I'm glad you alive. Where's Uriel?"

"Uhm... ehm... eghrr..." Oh no. Something bad must happen to her, if Gabriel has hard time to answer... and so Michael.

"Up to three?"

"Three. Yeah." and they counted, then at three they disappeared so fast through the window.

"Uriel is dead." answered Samael instead of them. What? I'll finish these two, just let me get up...
