Author's Notes: I'm altering the events in the game since I feel like it. :p ;)

************************************

Gabriel woke to a bright sun glaring over the forest. He blinked several times, then rubbed his eyes. He looked at the smoldering remains of the fire, then at the woman sleeping next to him. He frowned as he recalled the previous night. //Damn. I had a chance and I had to go and fall asleep on her.// He shook his head and started to get up.

Rena opened her eyes and looked up at him. "Morning, Gabriel." She smiled as she sat up. "I'll help pack up." She stood up and began to fold the unused blankets that would have served as Gabriel's pallet. She stuffed them in a bag and did the same to her own pallet.

Gabriel was making certain that the fire was indeed out and kicked dirt on it. He turned to look at Rena. "I'm sorry." He looked away as he picked up his travel pack and the bag that held the blankets.

Rena frowned slightly as she retrieved her travel pack. "For what?"

"Falling asleep like that." Gabriel started toward Salva when he heard Rena laugh.

"Oh! That. You were tired. You needed to sleep. There will be other times." Rena passed by a stunned Gabriel. She intentionally swayed her hips as she walked in front of her companion.

Gabriel shook his head with a smile as he started to follow after her.

They had been watched again, but remained unaware of it.

"I told you, he's dangerous. Thanks to Lucifer, he knows the pendant is important."

"He doesn't know how important it is though. Lucifer should have paid more attention to what was going on around him rather than his own thoughts."

"He'll never intentionally harm Gabriel. We'll have to do that ourselves."

"Get a grip, Berle. I'm not going to hurt Gabriel either. He needs to remember who he is."

"Zadkiel, Gabriel nearly had sex with that woman! He's not who he used to be! He's dangerous! The more time he spends like this, the less chance we may have to make him remember!" The voice was a near shout.

"I know that, you idiot. Do you think you could be a bit louder? I don't think they quite heard you." Angry, but soft, the voice was berating.

"Oh, be quiet both of you. We've got real problems and we all know it. Lucifer said that no harm was to come to Gabriel. You hurt him and you'll have to deal with Lucifer."

"We know, Michael!" The first two voices growled out simultaneously.
