A/N, thanks to all of you for the continued support, would love to hear some comments

"So Sister Emma, where have your cohorts taken my sister?" Lucifer had turned to face her, the look in his eyes suggested that she tell him all she knew, the flicker of hell fire had made that point very clear.

"I'm not sure, as I was never for this plan I have been kept out of the loop because of that fact, I do have a few ideas though!" Emma answered honestly and the was confronted by a very angry Ella Lopez,

"What have you done? My friend and sister has been taken by you!" Ella was in the woman's face poking he in the chest, clearly angry and scared and a little ashamed about not being able to protect her young(ish) charge,

"Not me but I, I am complicit in it!" Emma announced and then hung her head in shame, not wanting to meet either of their eyes,

"Well that's a start, bring it in sister!" Emma was surprised that she was enveloped in a hug, it was warm and comforting but Ella whispered in her ear, "If Cassiel is harmed in any way me and you are going to have problems!" The statement left no room for argument so she simply nodded.

"Little one, please take Sister Emma back to Lux, I will be along shortly." Ella wasn't happy with the situation, however agreed and led the Nun back to her car, she knew that Lucifer was beyond furious, so giving him a little space was a wise move, she did, however send a couple of texts to Chloe and Linda, she paused at sending one to Maze but she knew the Demon would likely be as incensed as Lucifer, the Demon and Angel had become friends and Ella knew that once you were one of Maze's friends you were family and Maze fought hard for her family and Maze fought hard period, coz she was a demon ninja or something.

Following her own kidnapping not all that long ago, Maze had taken it upon herself to teach Ella some serious self-defense moves, she may still call her Ellen but she didn't mind, the most bad ass women and babysitter she knew had taken time and some serious patience to teach her and had seemed almost proud when Ella had mastered some moves. To Ella, Maze was like the cool Aunt that swept into town once a year and taught you all the things your parents would abject to. She smiled at that thought and sent a message off to her too, the woman shouldn't be kept in the dark.

The response was almost instant, "NO ONE STEALS MY SKANCTS! Be at Lux within the hour!" Somehow Ella felt better, the world's greatest bounty hunter / Demon / friend / Aunt was on her way to help. Ella smiled and turned the ignition, the car stared and then was slammed into gear and was heading towards Lux.

Ella and Sister Emma walked into Lucifer apartment, it was empty, not unexpected due the speed Ella had drove at.

"So what now?" Sister Emma simply asked,

"Now we wait," Ella paused and looked at the Nun in front of her, "then you tell us all, or so help me god I will hurt you! Not to mention those who are coming for you!" Ella was pissed!

Emma nodded in quiet resignation, "I know I have made some mistakes here and I never wanted any of this and please believe me? I am not a bad a person, I was just following my beliefs and what I thought was right." She was pleading with Ella to believe her,

"I know you are." Ella gave the woman a small smile, "but you couldn't be more wrong in your assumptions!"

"I'm starting to see that too," Emma's voice became small and nervous, she knew in her heart what the 'Group' had done was wrong but she had allowed it to happen, now it was time to atone for her sins against the almighty and more importantly the Devil. The one who was on his way and ready to punish her, a punishment she knew deep down she probably deserved. "What will he do to me?" Emma asked now meeting Ella's eyes, her fate was probably sealed at his stage,

Ella took a breath and continued, "Honestly? I don't know!" Ella's statement didn't ease the situation, "he could go full on Devil on you or he will forgive you, like he has done so many times before, but look, you came to us and are willing to help, that means something, right?" Ella asked hopefully,

"I hope so, I have made many mistakes!" Emma acknowledged and hung her head in shame again,

"Now, Now Sister, there is no time that!" Lucifer announced as he entered the apartment, "what we need are answers, not self-pity!" Lucifer was serious and determined but not harsh or cruel. Sister Emma was surprised by this, she half expected to be smited out of existence by just being here but no, the man in front of her and yes he was a man and not the monster she was led to believe, was just concerned, concerned about the safe retrieval of his sister and she could understand that.

"What can I do to help? Please I want to make this right!"

"Answer our questions the best you can, do not lie to me and get yourself a drink, I am nothing but a good host!" Lucifer almost smiled at the last bit of his statement but given the current situation he couldn't bring himself to.

Sister Emma stood and made her way to the bar, she thought it best to pour three drinks for herself, Lucifer and Ella, on her return the pair accepted them and drank them deep, it was going to be a long night.

The three of them sat in silence, sipping their drinks, not wanting to discuss their current situation until the others arrived and Emma was grateful for the quiet reprieve before she was once again questioned and she knew this time the assembled group wouldn't be taking any prisoners, she was in trouble and had a feeling that she wouldn't survive the night.

As if reading her mind, Lucifer piped up "Sister Emma, you needn't worry about your safety, yes you may be tortured if you withhold any information, so it is best if you don't do that!" Lucifer smirked, "now I do not want you harmed but I will not stop it if I think you are holding anything back, do you understand?" Lucifer was dead serious now as he looked at her,

"I understand and I will tell you everything I know, so please no torture!" Her final plea was almost a whisper but one she hoped the Devil heard. He did and nodded at her.

The silence was broken by the ding of the elevator, then the family poured out ready to help.
