A few weeks later, Daryl had called in everyone in his team together for a meeting, one that would change their lives.
"Days ago, I received news that Pallbearer has gotten their hands on Project Angel." Daryl remorsefully reported to everyone sitting around a table. "I propose we invade Pallbearer and take back Project Angel."
"Invasion? Daryl! You want an invasion now?" Tsugumi exclaimed, pounding her shaken fists onto the table. What was he thinking? After barely making out of their last battle, how could he expect them to suddenly launch an attack of their own?
"Major General Yan, in all respects, this is most unwise." Yahiro also agreed.
"Think about it, the enemy already has an advantage point over us. If we invade before they figure out how to use it, we might stand a chance." Daryl argued.
"Do you forget that we have an advantage of our own?" Yahiro argued back. "We have Shu's Void Emulator and Inori Yuzuriha. Their abilities have proven to be much more useful in the past."
"It doesn't matter if they have eleven of the same thing with similar abilities!"
Ayase and Jessica merely looked at each other. In a scenario, such as this one, they were the undecided middle that usually sided with the majority. However, both sides already made so much sense, they were stuck in the middle. If they don't invade, then they were all sitting ducks waiting for an attack to pummel them. If they attack, it may cost the team dearly.
"How about when Shu gets here, we vote for it?" Ayase suggested.
"Okay, I vote against." Yahiro stated.
Tsugumi was quiet at first, but she spoke after a fleeting moment. "I'm also against. Daryl, with your condition, you can't keep fighting like this."
"Well I vote for!" Ayase declared, surprising everyone at the table, even Yahiro and Daryl. "We can't keep fighting like this as well! We don't even know what Pallbearers goal is. Are we just going to sit around and let them waltz in like they've been doing?"
Suddenly, silence settled into the team. It was two-on-two, with Tsugumi and Yahiro against Ayase and Daryl. All of them stared back at the only person who didn't take a side and was the tiebreaker. The youngest started to sweat and cracked a nervous smile. "Um...Can I call neutrality?"
"Guys...what are we doing?" Shu asked when he came in. As always, Inori followed close behind and she blankly surveyed the area as if she was recording the spatial information.
Jessica replied, "We're taking a vote on whether to invade on Pallbearer before they do to us. If we do, we have an advantage against them since you got your jig back. The disadvantage is that Pallbearer has eleven organisms with similar abilities as you... if they figure out how to make the Angels work. What do you choose?"
Shu looked at each person gazing up to him. Tsugumi was worried. Yahiro was concerned. Both Ayase and Daryl were eager to hear his answer. All of them had a good reason why he was to be a tiebreaker. He knew more about this stuff than anyone else. Why was he always the center of attention? But even so, they all recognize him as the most influential and most important person in this room. His vote counted for more than anything.
"I choose for." Shu finally decided, making both Tsugumi and Yahiro slump back into their seats. "But we can't just blindly rush into them. We have to go with precaution in mind. I don't want anyone to lose their lives over a mission like this." Shu warned. "And when I do my part, I want to go as a foot soldier. I think my Void Emulator would serve a greater purpose like that."
"And in that case, I vote for as well." Jessica declared.
"It's four against two." Daryl said. "It's settled. In two days' time, we'll commence the invasion without fail."
"Yes sir!" All of them chanted back, others more reluctant than the most, but in unison, they were to agree.

"Daryl! Daryl! Daryl Yan! Sprout!" Frustrated, the young woman tackled the tall officer as he was about to enter his room.
Daryl, surprisingly, was shocked that this little woman had such strength as he fell into the ground. She was angry; he could clearly see that. Her metal ears lit up and her hair flew wildly everywhere, like a cat arching in defense. Daryl quickly grabbed onto her arms as she fell onto him, mostly to cushion her from the impact and to have a safety if she started shredding him.
Tsugumi hissed, "Stupid Sprout! What has gotten into you? Are you insane? You won't survive even for a second out there with that heart!"
Daryl scoffed, "I'm a military man. I've trained myself to overcome weaknesses like this. I can handle this battle."
"Arrogant bastard," Tsugumi grumbled and retorted back, "You can't train a weakened heart to become strong again. It doesn't work that way! What if you get a heart attack in the middle of a battle? What will you do then?"
"Runt, I've fought in battle with the last stage of the Apocalypse Virus spreading all over me." Daryl haughtily boasted. "A heart attack is nothing. So can you stop worrying?"
"How can I not worry when you act so reckless?" Tsugumi angrily spat. "And a heart attack is not just nothing! You can die! Idiot! Idiot! Idiot!" She said in tears and pounded her weightless fists into his chest. Soon, all became tiresome to her, and she was reduced to sobbing into his chest with her fists gripping tightly on his jacket. "You're such an idiot."
"Tsugumi..." Not even thinking, he wrapped his arms around her small body and pulled her into a tight embrace. He rested his chin onto her soft head with her violet locks tickling his skin, and breathing in a scent similar to apples, he spoke, "Tsugumi...I'm sorry. But I have to do this. I can't afford to lose any more soldiers or any of you guys." His mind flashed back to the times that Jessica and Tsugumi were attacked. He let them get hurt once. He won't allow it again.
Tsugumi bit her lips and she removed herself to gaze into his violet eyes. "I don't want to lose you again." She whimpered.
"I know..." Daryl stared deeply back, entranced by her eyes. "And I don't want to be lost again...from you." He gently caressed her wet cheeks, removing a developing tear of her eyes with his thumb. She was soft. She was warm. She wanted him to come closer. And he did.
His lips touched hers softly, enveloping them into a light kiss. She felt her body pull close together and she wrapped her arms around his neck. Soon, it became deeper. Tsugumi lightly moaned into him, feeling that her head was going to explode. His lips soon left her lips and he began to lightly suck on her neck. She felt his hands travel around her back, feeling every inch, just as she buried her palms into his sweaty blonde hair.
Who knows what brought him to do this? He didn't care. This time was a rare night. No distractions. No work. It was only him and her, together in privacy, and getting lost in each other's caress.

Shu arrived back into his dark room where his first love, or her empty shell, Inori Yuzuriha sat idly looking out the door. She was clothed in a rosy red dress, which dipped in the middle to bear a bit of her stomach, with black tights and black shoes. Her pink hair was in its usual low pigtails, which she fashioned off with red ties. She seemed to have been staring out the same place for quite some time.
"Inori? What's wrong?"
Inori pointed out the door. "I saw them…"
"Who?"
"The blonde man and the violet haired woman." Inori responded. "They were…" She paused, and lightly touched her fingertips together.
Shu sheepishly chuckled. "Oh…don't worry about that. It's normal for them."
She tilted her head in question. "Why?"
Shu blushed and readjusted his hot collar. "Umm…It's normal…because…they like each other?"
"I like you. I like Ayase. I like Jessica. I like your friends and mine. So why don't we do that?"
Shu sighed and sat down beside her. "It's complicated…but I guess, at this point, you can call them lovers."
Inori was emotionless as usual. But, softly, she leaned against Shu's arm and closed her eyes. "Was I once that? A lover? The emotions between them, I feel them as well."
Shu gazed at her with his mouth trembling. He wanted to tell her everything. He wanted to tell her the story of the day she met him in a factory up to the point she sacrificed herself for him. He wanted to tell her of their trials and tribulations and how they stood by each other through it all. But still…his mouth remained shut and he closed his eyes and wrapped his arm around her.
"I don't know…maybe…"
Inori paused as well, feeling his grip tighten on her shoulder. She lightly touched his hand for comfort. "I wish my memories came back."
"So do I…" Shu lightly stroked her soft hair, and noticed a missing piece. He dug into his pocket and pulled out a small red clip. "Here, I got you a present."
Inori smiled and reached out for it. "Thank you. Shu." When the metal red clip touched her hair for the first time, she felt somewhat complete.

Alone were two of the original GHQ officers as they stood side by side in an elevator. The younger one wore her uniform, albeit a shorter version of her trench coat since that one proved to be a disadvantage in fighting. The other wore his signature white and red plugsuit and was already eager for the operation. Daryl was smiling to himself, not in a creepy way, but more like he was living through a happy memory. Jessica was quick to notice a sudden lift in her commander's spirits as he greeted her on the way. She was a little out. Intuition would tell her that this probably had to do with Tsugumi.
"Good morning," Jessica simply greeted once they met. "Did you have a good beauty sleep or something? You're awfully chipper."
"Yeah...something like that." Daryl anxiously reached for his collar for a while to pull it up.
'That's a hickey.' Jessica rolled her eyes. Pulling up the collar was only going to make it much more obvious. At least, he finally got into a goodstage with Tsugumi.
The young girl adjusted her glasses again when she saw that the light stopped upon the third floor and a loud ring echoed against the empty glass elevator. "Why are we going to the third floor, Daryl Yan?" Jessica asked.
The person on the other side was already her answer.
"Major General Yan, you seem to be in high spirits." Ayase chuckled and muffled her teasing laughs in her gloved hands. She sat in her wheelchair, which was already glowing from the many gadgets Daryl decked it out with, and her right crimson red suit gleamed against her soft nature. She was quite the vibrant woman.
Daryl groaned and muttered something under his breath before approaching her. "Ayase Shinomiya." Daryl acknowledge as he knelt down beside her. "I came to request that you switch Endlaves with me in this invasion."
"Switch Endlaves?" Ayase's eyebrows perched up in suspicion. "What made you come up with such an idea? I remember you saying that you'll never give up your precious custom-made Steiner."
"I think that the success of this invasion is much more important than personal issues." Daryl shot back. "As much as I hate to admit it, you did steal my Steiner a long time ago and made good use of it in battle. Between you and I, you only slightlybest me in Endlave piloting." He cringed a little on that part. "And I need all the advantages I can get."
Ayase was speechless, simply speechless. Did this guy, the most pompous bastard ever known to man, just compliment her? The man, whom she had trouble accepting that her Tsugumi was falling in love, was actually sucking up his pride for the better good? Who was this person? Was he the same vicious Daryl from many years ago?
"Um...I don't know what to say..." Ayase dragged on.
Daryl sighed, "Are you taking the Steiner or not?"
"Okay! Okay! I'll take it!" Ayase excitedly replied. Even though she had her suspicions, she couldn't resist a new toy!
Daryl nodded, but soon glared back. "No scratches below the second exoskeleton! Got it!"
"I'll take good care of it! Don't you worry!" Ayase laughed. He was an overprotective guy to boot. At least, she knew Tsugumi had a personal bodyguard who would always protect her... Lucky girl!
Ayase glanced back into her pod, which was a whole feet above her chair and it was going to be quite a difficult task. Tsugumi and Shu were busy suiting up anyways. Ayase bit her lips in sheer awkwardness. But it should be alright, he's practically a brother-in-law these days whenever she spent time with him and Tsugumi. "Hey, Major General Yan...could you give me a hand?" She motioned towards her pod.
Daryl blankly stared back. Was he supposed to lift her up? Was touching Ayase okay? Was she contaminated? But then again, he was fine touching Tsugumi and she spent every waking hour with Ayase. She was fine. But was it appropriate? Daryl had every right mind to push the task back to Jessica, but instead, he bent down and lifted the frail woman up bridal style. He softly placed Ayase into the comfortable chair and slowly began to back out.
"Thanks." Ayase softly smiled at him. "You know, now that I look closely, you actually have really kind eyes." She chuckled. "How strange! For me to be saying it to you out of all people... But then again, it's already strange enough Tsugumi chose to like you out of all people."
Daryl froze there for a minute. What did she mean? How should he respond?
Instead, he briskly went back into the elevator and he punched in the number for the top floors; his personal station. Only he and a few others had access to this station. It was nice and private. Perfect...for handling his dilemma now...
Jessica noticed that the railing was slightly quivering. Was he gripping too hard? She leaned over and took a small peek for confirmation. For sure, Daryl was squeezing the railing like a stress ball. What was he so worried about? And also, that strange request he made earlier...that was not the product of Daryl being nice or Daryl using his head. Jessica knew he would never give away his precious Steiner 2.0.
Jessica cleared her throat and spoke, "Daryl... Your Endlave is the only Endlave separate from the GHQ army. You realize you're the easiest to spot outside of our team, and you're one of the most formidable. Their main target is going to be you."
Daryl merely stared back at her in blanks. He had no expression whatsoever. "I had to make precautions."
"You're a monster."
"Sacrifices have to be made."
Jessica stared on as he exited the elevator. For a long time, she did not step out. She merely stayed in such a tiny place and thought to herself: Was he serious?
"Jessica! Come here! Set up main communications." Daryl called out. He frowned when the young one was unresponsive. "Jessica! I order you to come here!"
"Yes sir..." Jessica stepped out towards her main interface. She placed on her communicator and headset, and began to set up all the initial controls. Soon, accurate videos of each of the team members popped up onto her screen.
Yahiro had decided to step out of the main invasion force and he concentrated most of his efforts on Tokyo, just in case everything failed and Pallbearers decided for a total takeover. If all else failed, they had to depend on Yahiro to protect everyone else.
The main team, Shu, Ayase, and Daryl answered Jessica's call. All were suited up and ready to go. Ayase and Daryl already had their helmets on and were patiently waiting for the beginning to start. Shu was making extra precautions with his new arm and beside him was the beautiful yet emotionless doll named Inori. She was blankly staring at the camera too! Finally, Tsugumi started up all her engines and already began making programs designed to hack in seconds. Jessica cued for all of them. "Is everyone connected?"
"Yeah!" Ayase was the first to answer. "Tsugumi! Let's do this!"
"Aye! Aya-nee!" Tsugumi swept her palm across her wide interface and activated every single thing possible in that Steiner. Daryl had given her absolutely no permission to hack his precious baby; though he did cave in pretty quickly after the first try. It also helped that she pulled out all her cute antics. It was fun watching him blush like crazy!
"Yes. I'm here." Shu confirmed. Jessica easily tracked him to be in his prep room. "I've left Inori in her room so she'll be safe there. Please keep an eye on her Jessica."
"Roger that." Jessica pulled up a surveillance camera of Inori Yuzuriha. She was sitting in a chair, gazing out of her window at the vast world before her.
After confirming Inori was well, Jessica turned her attentions to her Major General. "Ready when you are, sir." Jessica hesitantly confirmed.
Daryl nodded and stepped into the pod.
"Starting up Major General Daryl Yan." Jessica announced and hit the "enabled" button.
"Starting up Aya-nee!" Tsugumi followed suit.
Shu stepped up in front of the two massive Endlaves beside him. He readied his new prosthetic arm, which had green streaks already lighting up vertically and the circular Void Genome Emulator glowed ceremoniously in his palm. He took one step forward onto Funell, a makeshift Segway Tsugumi once made for him. "I'm ready."
Daryl opened his eyes, seeing an old Endlave screen for the first time in so long. It wasn't anything like his upgraded Steiner 2.0, but it was passable…for the moment. He smirked and connected with everyone in the operation. "Alright, here's what we're going to do. Their base is located at these coordinates and stretches for at least a couple hundred feet. Their two critical is in the front and the back. I want Ayase Shinomiya to lead a squadron along with Shu for a frontal attack. I will lead the remaining squadrons from the back. Tsugumi, take down every single bit of security in our way. And Jessica, keep connections up and be prepared to switch pilots with back-up Endlaves."
"Understood." Jessica pulled up more visuals. "Squadrons 1A all the way down to D6 are ready to be deployed at Ayase and Shu's request. Major General Yan, the rest are already stationed in the opposite side of the building. Ready when you are."
"I'll be on my way." Daryl gave a quick good bye and leapt off the traveling platform.
Ayase gazed down at Shu. "What's the status of the frontal entrance? Any blockade?"
Shu nodded and a pair of glasses, Jessica's Void, materialized in front of his eyes. "I see a few guard soldiers patrolling outside, but I think they're going to call for reinforcements soon."
"Well, let's get at them before they have the chance!" Ayase smirked and called out, "Jessica! Send in the squads now! We're going in!"
"Yes sir, sending in squadrons in five seconds. Ayase and Shu, prepare to take off." Jessica pressed a few more keys and landed her finger on one. "Now!"
Ayase launched out of their vehicle and sped towards their army of the day. Shu followed suit as he leaped with Funell off the platform and sped after her. They charged, not knowing what was there to oppose them. But, both know, they can do this. Ayase charged through the first defense and her soldiers cleared out all opponents. They were there to clear a path for Shu. He was their sharpest sword, ready to end anyone's life with his Void of shears.
"We're in, Daryl." Ayase reported as her team sped down the main hallway.
"My team surrounded the whole back area." Daryl also reported. "Tsugumi, do you have any maps?"
"Almost got them!" Tsugumi jumped up, pulled off a back flip, and hit an icon with her shoe. She watched her digital icon explode, bringing forth the general layout of the fortress. It was large, really large! "Jessie! Send these out!"
"Roger that. Daryl, Ayase, and Shu, I'm sending you a visual. Shu, you better put on my glasses." Jessica pressed send on her screen and got a hologram of the flat layout to show up. The building was a round oval dome essentially and was built in the middle of a desert. Jessica tapped a few more codes and got the graphs to match up in her hologram. "It seems most of the radioactivity is coming from the very center."
Daryl scoffed as he took down another Endlave in his way. "How very typical. Ayase! Shu! Get your asses down here now! I'm closer to the center than you are!"
"No need to be yelling at us." Ayase grumbled.
Shu was first to sprint forward and in one sweep, a whole squad of Endlaves were taken down; all black of course. He stood up from the rubble and placed on Jessica's Void. "I see the radioactivity as well. It seems Pallbearer has gotten the Apocalypse rock as well."
"Really? That's strange..." Jessica pulled up more data from her history files. "The levels of radioactivity are lower here."
"What would that mean?" Ayase mumbled and sped forward.
Tsugumi gasped and she quickly connected herself to the Steiner. "Aya-nee! Steer away! There are two enemies ahead and they're different!"
"Two enemies?" Ayase screeched into a full stop, making rubble and dust spew out from behind her and that effectively covered up her sight.
But when the smoke dispersed, she saw two females in her visual field. One had short blue hair with blue eyes and the other had long blonde hair and dull blue eyes. But both were wearing a strange red suit with billowing sleeves and tight black leather pants. When they turned around, their red outfit was essentially backless and had two tail ends of cloth with a number sewn in above their butt.
"Hehehe! What have we got here?" The blonde one smirked with a cheeky grin.
"Intruders obviously." The blue one emotionlessly responded.
"Who are you?" Shu readied his Void weapon when approaching the two.
"It's the original King I see." The blue one said and she lifted out her arm where a crystal sword instantly shot out. "I'm interested of what you're capable of."
"Come on Angel Three! It's a bit rude to not introduce ourselves!" The blonde one jumped up and hovered over to Ayase where a pair of crystal wings grew from her back. "I'm Angel Six. I'm going to kill you!"
Elsewhere, Daryl backed off cautiously when he was approached by two females wearing red outfits. One had the number four on her back and she had long violet hair tied into a pony tail with grey eyes. The other had dirty blonde hair which was cut straight for her bangs and went down her backside. She had a number seven on her back.
"Who the hell are you?" Daryl readied his gun to fire.
"My, my...what a sexy voice!" The violet one quickly appeared near his main control center. "Let's see how you look from the inside!"
"Ah!" Daryl yelled in his agonizing pain. Electricity shot through his head and stretched down his entire body. Already, he felt his heart drop a little.
Jessica silently watched the screen monitoring Daryl's status go insane. Her finger was poised over the "bail out" button. Should she go for it?
But then, the charts went back to normal and she could hear Daryl breathe normally again. He seemed to be struggling in that pod.
"Wow! He's totally my type!" The violet Angel Four cheered as she leapt back to next to her partner. "Did you see him, Angel Seven? He is blonde, has these amazing purple eyes, and he has a six pack! How many people in Pallbearer have six packs? Huh? Zero!"
"I'll see for myself when we capture him." Angel Seven spread out two of her arms and produced long crystal daggers.
"When we capture him, I call first dibs!" Angel Four smirked and shot some warning crystal bullets. "He'll be my plaything and I'll be his master. We'll be making sweet love forever and ever and ever..."
"Shut up bitch!" Daryl growled and shot as many rapid fire bullets possible to get them. No way is he ever going to be a mere plaything!
But both angels avoided it all, weaving through paths of bullets like two graceful dancers. Angel Seven managed to cut behind him and stab his Endlave in both legs. Daryl screamed out as the pain shot through his legs and up to his abdomen. He felt that both of his limbs were being ripped to shreds and his heart was beating way past its limit.
"You have such a sexy scream." Angel Four said with a dreamy gaze in her eyes. "It'd be such a shame for you to die now. I think I'll hold onto you until executions are in order!" Her smile became devilish as she shot a few crystal bullets into his chest.
Luckily, Daryl managed to shake her off and dodge her attack in the nick of time. Daryl fired a large missile at them and quickly bolted away. This was bad! He was injured and they're on his tail! He never thought Project Angel would end up to be this powerful!
"He's running away from me!" Angel Four pouted. "I hate men who run."
"Please focus on our mission, Angel Four." Angel Seven strictly said. "When we capture him, you can have your way with him as much as you like."
"The thought of it just makes me so excited!" Angel Four squealed.
Tsugumi frowned when she heard these two females from the security camera. This was Daryl they were talking about? She gritted her teeth in pure jealousy and a hot blush formed across her cheeks. No way are they getting him! Never! Tsugumi pulled out all the stops and activated every trap possible in that hallway. No one can survive that! Let's see them try.
"It seems we have a hacker in our territory." Angel Seven said and barreled right through, destroying every laser and every bullet in her way. "Whoever is there, don't even try!"
Shit! Tsugumi connected back to Ayase. "Aya-nee! Be careful! They're more powerful than you think!"
"I know that!" Ayase struggled to say as she battled her own blonde angel.
Shu stood his ground and battled his angel in a combat sword fight. After more than a few swings, he was quickly blown off course with her strike.
"Huh. I expected much more from the King. Pity." Angel Three prepared to stab him while he's down.
"No!" Ayase fired off a rocket and hit one of them squarely in the chest.
"Pay attention!" Angel Six cackled and sliced right down Ayase's Endlave.
"Aya-nee! I'm coming!" Tsugumi controlled one of her taken over Endlaves to rush towards them. She had to join the fight. "Just hold on till I get there!"
"I am! Ha!" Ayase threw one of them off of her just as Shu regained his ground and shot Ryu's Void at one of them.
"Ah!" Shu charged at his fallen angel, pulling out Inori's Void and making quick slashes at her.
Angel Three gasped as each strike hit her body. She tumbled back, breaking her head sharply against the wall. "You bastard!" She growled and fell to the ground.
"One down!" Shu announced in amazement.
"One more to go!" Ayase fired more bullets at Angel Six, of which she merely dodged while flying.
"Angel Three was a fool to challenge you alone." Angel Six said and flew back towards the fallen Three.
Suddenly, behind them, one more angel appeared from opening doors. This time, this angel had red hair tied into two ponytails. "Angel Eight, reporting for duty!" She spoke, raising a flat hand up to her forehead and clicking her heels like a true soldier.
"There's more!" Ayase gasped.
"Withdraw!" Daryl shouted as he sped down a corridor. "They're too much! We can't handle them now!"
"Daryl Yan?" Shu spotted the Endlave that contained him and also two more pesky Angels trailing him. "What should we do? We're surrounded."
"I don't know...surrender while you can?" Angel Six cheekily said as she floated above them.
"It's pointless now." Angel Eight smirked in her reply. "Our other sisters are heading to your headquarters right now. Your little plan failed and you are going to die for it!"
Angel Four raised her weapons and all of her comrades did the same. They all aimed to fire the three lone soldiers trapped in their circle. "Ready! Fire!"
"Ayase!" Shu shouted. Just like his one arm, robotic humanoid legs became his own and he shot up towards the sky. He shot through at least five roofs before making a large hole in the building. Concerned, Shu hovered over Ayase and Daryl for a few seconds, hoping they caught his drift.
Tsugumi sure did. "Bail out!" She cried, smashing her hand against her screen.
Ayase gasped and lifted her head out of the cramped pod. She threw out her helmet and breathed long drags of air. Suddenly, pain shot through her chest and she grabbed the area, throwing herself back over.
Ayase was out! Tsugumi turned back to the trio of Endlaves. But one was still active! And he was screaming in pain as the crystals pierced through his armor. Panicked, Tsugumi called up Jessica. "Jessie! Daryl's hurt! Bail him out! Jessie! Jessie? Are you there?"
No answer.
"Jessie? Jessie!"
Alone, in a dark command center, a lone female stood by her screen. Her finger was on the "bail out" button. Her comrade was yelling in agony beside her. But she showed no remorse as she pulled her hand away.
"You deserve this. Foolish big brother."
And the Angels have arrived! So to differentiate each one: four has a crush on Daryl, three likes a challenge, six is very mischievous, seven follows the rules, and eight actually acts like a soldier. And there's Inori. There are six more to make up randomly, or I probably won't even mention them all if I can't find a way to write them all without confusing myself. However, I can tell you that one of the angels stand out.
Now what's happening between Daryl and Jessica? Does she want to kill him? Why did she call him "big brother"?
Read and review! And happy holidays!
