Michael's POV

Thanks to Lucifer (I only called him in this name in my mind, to respect my sister), Ayelet healed faster, with the given light. And she had sharpened mouth, not to mention, have learnt a few phrases that I'd never assumed she'd ever say.

"Fuck off, Samael, you almost killed Mike!" she scolded him. It was though a bit funny, as she tried to seem serious and put together, from my arms. Yes, after the docs said she only needs to rest herself out, I had the courage to take her in my arm, still wonder, what her dream of me was, I hope of something nice and not a nightmare. "That isn't funny, bro!"

"For me, it worth the price, shame you've missed it out, sister, you wouldn't thought Michael can be that theatrical. Great show, believe me, and nope, I haven't regret it, you can scold me for all eternity, but it won't soften my non-existing soul."

"Says the one who runs here after I say Aye is about to die?" I teased him. His eyes narrowed, and I got a stern crimson glare at my so called joke. I'm still not good at humour. Who cares, when I can be with my sister again, and it seems she doesn't hate me anymore. I hope it will last forever; I do not want another fight between us.

"I am not as sentimental as you. Cry baby number one and two. Are you really my twin, Aye, and not theirs?" he rolled his eyes, while he was sitting on the windowsill, hanging his legs – I should warn him, he'll fall off of the window, but he wouldn't listen, why would the devil do such a thing? "So, why I am called back? What key you have found?"

"The key for opening the Gates of Heaven. I have a theory to test: we go back home, Aye opens the gate and problems solved." I sketched shortly what was swirling in my mind. "We just have to wait till Father comes home too and we don't have to ruin Earth any further."

Ayelet laughed into my shirt, covering her face with the blanket's end which I wrapped her into before I took her in my arms.

"He basically asks me to save their asses from Father if He'll see what a mess they created."

"Hey! You were in that too!"

"Nope... not exactly. I just decorated a whole barrack's gym with wonderful Michael-prints." Lucifer barked a laugh, after hearing Ayelet's brilliant self-saving excuse.

"I don't have any doubt, you're my sister, girl" he showed a thumb up.

"And I decorated the floor with you. Don't mess with me, sister."

"Want a cute curse on yourself again?" Hm, maybe it can be put for later. I've taken enough bloodbaths during history.

"Are you trying to threaten me?"

"Why would she?"

"Samael, don't underestimate me. Fine, I'll test your theory Michael, but... I'm not sure how I will get back there. I can't enter the spiritual realm, remember, I cut my tunnel to the divine eons ago."

"Theory seems debunked, dude."

"Gosh, I forgot your scar..." I face palmed. She is right. I can't bring her home, she cannot enter to the spiritual world, she rejected it herself. "How near we was to the solution."

"Yeah, it could possibly work. You can't enter Heaven but you can open the gates. But there's another issue, again, brother. She'll stay here on Earth. She can be one key, but she can't enter. It's a risky game." brainstormed Lucifer loudly. My sister, Ayelet remained silent, and enjoyed the cuddling moment we had. I really don't want to leave her behind, all alone, exposed to humanity.

"Let me summarize this whole: so it means I open the gates, you all go home, and I stay here, as the keeper." she sees through, not a good idea to try lying to her.

"Yes."

"Michael, as I said before, I'm not made of sugar, you don't have to babysit over me. In fact, I am elder than you and Gabriel and Uriel too. Lucifer is my twin brother, remember. We're strong."

"I just got you back, lost Uriel, no way I'd leave you behind. What kind of brother would do that?"

"The one who has responsibilities. Michael, end this whole together, you all go back home, and I'll help you in it."

"It's too risky." I protested.

"There's no win without risk, we all know it. I might be able to open a gate here on Earth. Call all the angels in Vega, or near to the borders, we have to hold a Council Meeting, before we do anything. I want to hear their opinions." Ayelet was right again. We can't decide over other's lives, I have to leave the opportunity for them to wait for Father's return here if they want, until they can live in peace with humankind.

"L... Samael, will you stay here with her?"

"Sure. I have to watch her over, since your human red witch is in pretty well conditions." answered Lucifer. Oh, he meant Becca... gosh, I haven't solve this accident... I still have a talk with her too, but I don't really want to set apart from Ayelet yet. I just got her back.

How much Gabriel will spoil her after its his turn. With my wings I messaged him, he can come, and be with her.

At first I went to visit Becca...

"Michael, I'm sorry." she sobbed. I didn't care. I lost the trust I felt previously, if there was any true, real emotion in me, what humans can sense. For Ayelet I surely felt the kind of sibling's love.

"You've asked if I am capable of love. In what terms you define this so called words? Have I betrayed you? Have Ayelet done anything to deserve your backstabbing attitude?" I found out she was experimenting on her too, just not as openly as she did with poor Louis. These pictures of the lab still haunted me. The angel begging me to end his sorrow.

"I wanted to cure her. I needed your blood that was left on the blade piece, I... I thought if I do a comparison between her DNA and yours, I might find the cure for her, so she can go home." sounds litigable, but those baby whale tears won't soften me. She broken the bond between us, and I am hardly forgiving type. Again, a common trait I share with Ayelet. It took her eons to forgive me and only with the assistance of Raguel, the angel of Harmony.

Raguel's skills would come handy now, but I can't command her every freaking time I have to face a conflict.

"Shame on you, she trusted you, and you've exposed her to the wicked ones. I don't care of he threatened you with death. If you were a true loyal to us, you'd chose death. We always have a choice."

"I admit I don't deserve the second chance I got." she continued sobbing. "Tell her I apologize."

"No. You will, after you recovered. But I do never want to hear from you again. We're done." And this isn't because of Laurel enchanted my heart. It is because I honestly loved Becca. I was fascinated by hear, I desired her, and to find out she was fake all along... it hurts. Now I understand the pain Father felt when he almost got rid of humanity again, they betrayed him again and again, and there is a point where love and loyalty worth nothing. It is useless to pour so much energy into something that won't have any results.

I felt weight on my chest, tears wanted to stream down my face, after I left the hospital. Breaking up is painful. I had to fly a few rounds around Vega, to clear out my mind before I called all the remaining angels to tell them our newly arranged plan.
