The song here is "Arise" by Flyleaf

Arise

Clara walked into the mansion and she could immediately hear some laughter coming from the back rooms. She closed the door and walked throughout the mansion to Keara's room. Outside of her room, Ginger sat up and gave a soft growl as Clara approached. She scratched her head and pushed the door open to see Keara and Gabriel drawing at her small table.

They looked up at her and smiled. Immediately, Keara held up her drawing which wasn't yet finished.

"This is you, Mommy." She said and pointed to a very elegantly dressed stick figure. Well, it had evolved from a stick figure, but it was similar. "This is Daddy." She said and pointed to a shorter and slightly plumper figure dressed in black with red eyes. Clara tried not to smirk. Keara pointed to Nikolai with the First Blade, Nerilla who looked normal, Ginger who looked like a big Great Dane, and then to Gabriel with large wings behind him and a bag of candy. What was adorable was that the background was a park with a rainbow in the sky, as if they were a bunch of happy characters.

"It's beautiful." Clara said and sat down in the chair next to Keara. "I love my dress, thank you." She said and Keara giggled.

"And you, Gabriel?" she asked and he held up his drawing with a grin. It was a caricature of Nikolai pouting and being ignored while Keara was playing with Gabriel, both of them laughing. She looked at Gabriel and his grin broadened.

"Anything to get under his skin." She said and he placed it down to show her another caricature he had done. It was of her and Crowley, only he was short and grumpy while she was like Jessica Rabbit. "Funny." Clara said with a slight smirk as Gabriel pushed his drawings aside to watch Keara.

"She's the real little artist." He said and Clara stared at him with a slight smile. There was no doubt he cared for her and her daughter. His eyes sparkled as he looked at Keara. Maybe that would change once he saw the demon in her, but, judging from her own experience with him, his intentions of protecting Keara would never change. Gabriel could never ignore the human side in a Cambion.

When he met her eyes, it was like looking at a friend; any rage she had felt towards him no longer existed.

"How's it going? He asked her and she knew what he meant. Clara nodded her head with a twitch in the corner of her lips.

"It could be better." She said and hesitated in telling him everything, but decided to blurt it out since he had gained her trust. "I believe this all boils down to your brother." She said and his expression was difficult to read, but he looked down and all mischief vanished.

"Lucifer?" Keara asked and Clara glanced at her and then back at Gabriel. He met her eyes and gave a small grin. "Gabriel told me about him." she added and continued drawing like nothing was out of the ordinary.

"Tell me he can't get out." Clara said and his lips twitched as if he was fighting a grin. Yes, she just let him off the hook for telling her daughter about Lucifer.

"It'll be very difficult, since the seals have already been broken; they can't be replaced. However, his cage probably would be easier to open in Hell." He said, which made her eyes go dull with disappointment. "Whoever wants to open his cage is going to have to be powerful or else it could kill them. You know, that typical story." He added and she glared at him.

It was disturbing and it made Clara wonder if that's why the demons were so determined that she be with Lucifer. It wasn't that they wanted her to remain Queen; they wanted her to release him since she was the most powerful creature in Hell. Sadly, at this point, it's all speculation. She couldn't be sure of it all, but it did make sense.

"Whoa." Gabriel said and when Clara looked at him, she could see that something was wrong. Then, she could hear the howl of her Hellhounds and she began to see through the eyes of one, but the image was blurry. "Anne's in trouble." He added and when she snapped out of the head of the Hellhound, her eyes began to glimmer darkly with anger.

At that moment, Nikolai walked into the room and didn't have the chance to ask what was going on before Clara hooked her arm through his and vanished.

Keara stared at the spot where her mother had been and then glanced at Gabriel.

"She'll be okay." He said and she smiled, but she seemed a little sad.

"Mommy doesn't talk much about Aunty Anne and Uncle Gadreel." She said and Gabriel smiled, finding it adorable how she referred to them. "Are they okay?" she asked and he hesitated. It was probably best that he didn't say too much.

"What do you know about your Aunty Anne?" Gabriel asked and Keara told him how Anne had helped Clara during her pregnancy, then how Clara resurrected Viviane because she knew Anne deserved the mother she would have liked to have had. Then, she knew Gadreel had been a good angel that had given his grace for the greater good.

Gabriel nodded and felt it was better to leave it at that; he didn't want to scare her.

"They're fine." He replied and stared at her smile.
