This is just a note about angel hierarchy - sorry if you thought it was another chapter. I don't mean to disappoint anyone, but this information just had to be put in, or some stuff would get ever so confusing (and I'm liable to forget this as well, so it's a guide for me too!) Also, I'm ill to the point of puking on this laptop, and the idea of writing anything all that long is making me feel queasy.

Now that that's settled and I've made my excuses, let's actually write what I came on this darned thing to write.

~*~*~*~The hierarchy of angels~*~*~*~

(From highest rank to lowest rank)

God (The omnipotent leaders - not the normal kind of 'God', and don't worry, I'm not going to psyche people out with weird beliefs, or force anything on anyone. God just seemed a convenient name. They're the 'creators' or what have you; a man and woman, no wings, can take on whatever ever form, yada yada.)

Council angels (The law keepers of the angel world in place of God when he and she aren't there.)

Ancient angels (The angels who were first made, first born, however you want to put it, these were the first guys and girls.)

Master angels (Loki is one of these, as was David. Rather like a modern day duke, or duchess.)

High angels (The group of angels who are schooled well, and have jobs that are equivalent to those of a dentist or doctor. Almost always rich, and with a certain sway with their superiors, and taken seriously by most.)

Angels (The all-encompassing name for those without any rank. The basic population of the angel world, pretty much like the population of Britain - free to do whatever they bloody well like, as long as they keep within the law.)

Free warriors (People from all of the above classes, who have chosen to become warriors of their own free will. Are treated with respect, and as heroes by most people, but sometimes family feuds can break out if a rich child decides to break away and join the free warriors.)

Forced warriors (Petty criminals, like thieves or muggers, are forced into service for periods from one, to as much as fifty years to be warriors for the Angel world. They are treated rather like servants if they disobey orders, but can rise to be respected, and some even decide to stay on and become Free warriors after their sentence is up.)

Fallen angels (The bottom of the bottom of the pile. This is where Alexis is. She used to be in one of the most esteemed High angel families of the time. But after the incident with Diabola and David, she has fallen to the lowest of the low. Fallen angels are treated like slaves. Sometimes even worse - like the parasites that live on fleas which live on dogs. They are nothing, of no consequence. No matter what they do, they cannot rise again. Like Alexis, they may gain a good track record, and perhaps gain respect similar to that which is given to Free warriors. Anything above that is unheard of.)

And there is the angel hierarchy. Hopefully now I won't confuse myself so much, and you'll understand what I'm on about a little more.

Sheik: Because that'll happen...

Soda: Shh, don't confuse me, I might be sick in the car!

Sheik: Eww! O.O
