I guess here's an anticipated chapter in the book of Prophesy.
CHAPTER FIVE:
John brushed the dirt off his shirt and trench coat.
" Great." he muttered and looked around at his bronze colored surroundings," Angela? Angela?!"
He looked around but he was only answered by spine chilling howls in the wind.
" Angela?! Chas?! Jaina?!" he yelled.
He didn't care if he got demon's attention. He went on through the hall which led to a staircase and the image of the painting in the Book of Prophesy came to his mind. He drew the crucifix shotgun which was hidden under his coat and held it in front of him ready for it to be fired. A scream echoed.
" Angela." he gasped as he ran down.
At the bottom of the stairwell he was thrown against the wall and he hit something hard.

He didn't know how long he was out but what he did know was that he was going to wake up to a sight he's aleady seen except with no shadow from the staircase. With a groan he opened his eyes. Angela was against a wall in the far side of the room unconscious. Jaina was off to the side with a dark stairwell to her side and on the wall Angela was set up against there was a shadow. The same shadow in that painting. A man with wings.
Constantine turned," Chas? Chas?!"
The young angel hung from the ceiling with chains on his wrists. He didn't appear to be hurt but Constantine doubted that they were going to get out of here alive much less unhurt. Chas groaned as did Jaina who was off to the side. Jaina woke first and she saw Angela.
" Angela! Wake up!" she whispered.
" Don't bother." Constantine said and Jaina turned to see him with the light mostly being on him.
" Constantine, what happened to you. Why are you here?"
" To save you and Chas?"
If there had been some light on her he was sure that he would've seen a confused look on her but when she caught the sight of her guardian angel hanging behind Constantine she gasped.
" Oh, god." she shouted and tried to get up but she cried out.
" What happened?" Constantine asked.
" They tried to sever my wings." she replied.
" Why?"
" They wanted to know where you were." she answered.
Constantine stared when Chas came in.
" John?" he asked.
" Yeah, Chas we're all here." Constantine replied as he turned to the angel.
" Where's Jaina?"
" I'm here." she said.
" You okay?" he asked her.
" I can't withdraw my wings they tried to cut it off and it's healing." she answered.
Angela moaned as she woke and she sat up.
" John? Chas? Jaina?" she asked.
" Here." they all said.
" Good you're all finally awake." came a dark rasped voice.
John tried to move when he felt the cold metal slide on his wrists. It was the first time he had noticed that he had chains against his wrist.
" Damn it." he muttered.
The demon entered the cave from the well lit stairwell to John's side and the cave instantaneously lit up. The torches that had been out lit up with an intense flame nearly blinding the four. The demon was holding John's crucifix shotgun in his hands.
" Interesting choice weapon, Constantine. As well is the choice of your friends, a seer a powerful one at that, a special breed angel, and the youngest archangel halfbreed." the thing said.
" What do my friends matter to you if you just want me?" Constantine asked thinking that maybe he could get Angela, Jaina, and Chas out of harm's way.
" Because." the demon replied.
" Because?" Constantine asked.
" Just because." the demon answered as he took the shotgun.
" Now, where is he? The silver angel here wouldn't say anything but maybe you would archangel." he said turning to Chas.
" Who?" Angela asked coming from behind.
" Jacen." the man replied.
" Jacen, who?" Chas and Constantine asked.
" Don't lie to me Constantine or you archangel."
" Really, who is he?" Constantine asked.
The demon turned to Chas.
" Where is the excorcist?"
" Right here." Constantine replied.
" Shut up." the demon commanded.
" I don't know what you're talking about." Chas lied.
There was a shot from the shotgun.
" Chas!" Constantine yelled.
The angel cried out as the bullet had pierced one of his wings.
" Fuck!" he shouted.
" Hey! Who the hell do you want if it's not us?!" Constantine yelled as his friend moaned in pain.
" Out of all people, John Constantine. You must know who Jacen is. Now, if you're friend won't tell me perhaps you will."
" I'm telling you right now. I don't know who you're talking about."
" Wrong answer." the demon said as he turned the gun to the excorcist.
" No!" Angela shouted when the gun was fired but the bullet never reached it's target as what seemed to be as another gunshot rang.
" Heard you were looking for me." a voice rang through the cave.
Suddenly everyone looked up at the start of a dark stairwell where the silhoutte of a young man was. The person jumped and landed with ease.
" Well you found me! Now leave my parents and friends alone!" the young man ordered his voice ringing throughout the very heart of the Underworld.
Angela and Jaina had a clear view of the young man who had dark raven hair while John and Chas had a view of his back towards them.
" Jacen Constantine." the demon hissed.
" What?" Angela and John asked.
Jacen as the young man was called turned to Constantine," Hi, Dad." he smiled and turned to Angela," Hi, Mom."
Okay, you know the drill review to read more. :) I know I'm really cruel.
