Okay, you guys were more upset than I thought you'd be, so... uh... sorry again. I'm trying so hard to get this story back on the road, but I'm writing another story (an original story, not fanfiction) right now with like, dragons and stuff. So if any dragons appear in this I apologize deeply. My brain works in strange and mysterious ways. Oh, updates will also be quite sporadic 'cause I go back to school in two days.

Anyway, I thought I'd jump straight to the day before Daniel turns Luce into an angel. How will everyone deal with the stress? Read on to find out.


Daniel's POV:'Tomorrow I will turn Luce into an angel,' Daniel thought happily, humming to himself as he leaned in the doorway of his house. 'His and Luce's house, now,' He reminded himself. Evangeline had kept it for him, she knew how much he loved it. And being the psychic that she was, she probably knew he was coming back. Luce was currently out exploring with Arriane, Gabbe and Shelby, while Miles, Cam, Molly and Roland were cooped up in another house down the street. He wondered how Evangeline had known they would need a separate place to stay. 'She's psychic, remember?' He mentally facepalmed himself, his mind was just so caught up in turning Luce. He was contemplating how Evangeline's powers worked when suddenly the girl herself came skipping round the corner.

"Speak of the devil..." He muttered to himself, smiling at her.

"And the devil shall appear," She finished "But I am far from the devil, if not his polar opposite,"

Daniel smirked, he'd forgotten that the Queen of Angels could hear everything anyone said. He wondered how she coped. Obviously his thoughts had been evident on his face, as Evangeline answered him.

"It's not easy, but I have learned to tune out most of them. At the moment I'm mainly keeping an eye on Cam, Molly, Miles and Roland. The last thing I want is my guests turning mutinous," She laughed, but her eyes flickered to where they were staying. "You know, I think you and I are long overdue for a catch up. Shall we go in?"

"Of course," Daniel said, holding the door open as she passed him, then following her inside.


Luce's POV: She was in Heaven. Literally, in Heaven. And about to become an angel. It was exciting and terrifying and brilliant all at once. She and Shelby were currently being given what Arriane had called the "Grand Tour". Basically that involved Arriane pointing out where she'd fought with various other angels when she fell.

"So why did you fall?" Shelby asked.

"Uh, well, there were a few reasons, basically I dissed the Queen and called our political system corrupt."

Gabbe snorted.

"And that was all?" She asked, a hint of mocking evident in her voice.

"Yeah, why'd you fall then Gabbe?"

"I was corrupted and I assassinated one of the governors."

"That was you?"

"Yeah, I regret it now, but it turns out I killed the wrong guy, and he was the spy for hell. So no big deal really."

Luce just stood there, gaping at the two of them. She found Arriane's story reasonable, but Gabbe being a killer? With her sweet southern drawl and delicate painted nails? She couldn't imagine it. She didn't want to.

"Luce, are you just gonna stand there like a stunned venus fly trap or are you gonna see the rest of the tour?" Arriane asked, as Shelby snorted.

"Right. Sorry. I'm coming."


Okay, sorry if this seems a bit forced, I worked really hard to get my brain to co-operate. I nearly resorted to reading articles on Quantum Physics. They make my brain hurt.
