SailorStar9: After getting Chapter 12 out, this is Chapter 13 of this fic. (Sighs) Guys and girls, is it too hard for you to leave a review, instead of just putting this fic up on your favorited list and story alerts?

Disclaimers: I own nothing, except for the plot bunny and the main pairing.

Chapter 13: Unleashed Despair


"My, what a handsome man." Angel mused, Gray's group having met up with her.

"The new Oracion Seis." Gray growled.

"You're the one they call Angel?" Freed inquired.

"Angel, you're my angel." Dan declared.

"Why do we always run into the weird ones?" Ami muttered, the swordsman going into love-stuck mode.

"Who's that?" Freed wondered. "He's Oracion Seis, too?"

"No!" Gray snapped.

"I'm the advent lanceman of the Legion Corps, Dan Straight." Dan introduced himself. "I've switched from being all Lucy, to being all Angel."

"Let me get it clear that I'm all for Laxus." Freed added.

"What are you trying to compete about here?" Gray wondered.

"Off-topic!" Ami shouted.

"Hey, you." Gray glared at Angel. "Why did you stash the 'Infinity Clock'?"

"A query that lacks intelligence." Angel shrugged. "Cost, 40. Come forth from the light. Heed my name, and be embraced by its power."

"That's Angel Magic." Freed noted.

"How deep, how divine." Dan gushed. "But that shadow in her eyes is a cause for concern."

"Angel of Sunlight, Shamsiel, be summoned!" Angel called forth the stone angel.

"Hey, are you feeling fine?" the stone angel greeted.

"What is this thing?" Gray gaped.

"It's all chubby and cute." Dan added.

"I don't know whether to be impressed or freaked out." Ami admitted. "Eternal Mercury Power! Well, at least they aren't bubble-shaped shoulder pads." the Eternal-level Senshi muttered.

"You may play with them." Angel told her summon.

"Roger." Shamsiel droned. "Let's play."

"I'll play with you!" Dan jumped in for a hug, only to be punched off.

"Idiot." Eternal Mercury muttered.

"What the hell did you come here for?" Gray exclaimed.

"Endless Winter!" Eternal Mercury let loose her updraft of icy water, turning Shamsiel into an ice block. "Too bad the 'Endless' bit isn't true. Get him before he breaks free; if it's even a he."

"Dark Écriture: Pain." Freed cast his spell.

"Ice Make: Saucer!" Gray released his ice disc.

"It tingles…" Shamsiel taunted, shattering his ice prison.

"Okay, I am officially creeped out." Eternal Mercury muttered.

"Sunlight of an angel is blinding." Shamsiel grinned, releasing his light beam.

"Good job." Angel praised, Shamsiel bringing her the Celestial Spirit mage who was hiding out in the cathedral.

"I found him." The stone angel headed the mage over. "I captured the Celestial Spirit mage."

"The Anti-Link amplitude limiter." Angel stroked the ruby dagger, the barely awake Gray gritting his teeth as he watched, Shamsiel's attack had knocked the other two mages out cold. "I'm going to activate it. Beautiful."

"Even if you sever my biological link, there are more of us…" the mage reminded.

"According to the information he got out of Father Fabrizio," Angel stated, taking out the mage with no remorse. "There are two left. And you," she had Shamsiel bring the Eternal Senshi over. "Will be our key. At last, our prayers will be answered."
