Five days left until Extermination...

EXTERMINATION DAY!

Two weeks have gone by. Angel's "death" has hit everyone in the hotel hard. Angel's father and brother had left the hotel, blaming everyone for Angel's death and there is such thing as redemption. Charlie felt like she had failed Angel thinking that she could have done something. Vaggie hated seeing her girlfriend like this. Anything she tried to say to her, made the princess feel even worse. Niffty was sadden by Angel's death to the point she was constantly crying uncontrollably almost flooding the lobby at one point. It took only Baxter to calm her down. Husk has gone back to his drinking and was even angrier and refused to talk to anyone. The former redeemer was slowly turning back to his old cat demon form little by little.

Husk had lashed out at Michael, almost attacking him hadn't Anna stepped in, and stopped him at the last second. Then the Husk turned his attention towards her.

A couple of hours later, Alastor was walking in the hallway and stopped by Anna's room. She hasn't come out since the incident. He knocked on the door, inviting himself in when he didn't hear anything. "Anna?" He saw a blob sitting in the corner of the room on the bed as Anna had a blanket over her, crying. Anna heard footsteps come closer, knowing that it was Alastor as he sat down on the bed beside her, feeling the weight shift.

"Will you come out from there?" Alastor asked.

"Go away, Alastor." Anna sniffed.

"I can't do that." She heard Alastor said. "Angel's death has hit everyone hard and I know that he was closer to you. But this won't help anything." He pulled the blanket slowly off of Anna's head and two ear tufts popped out, bending slightly downwards. He reached out and pinched Anna's lips, spreading them to a force a smile. "Can I see that beautiful smile of yours again?" Anna pushed his hands away from her face.

"Al...-!" Her eyes widen when she felt bile at the back of her throat. She quickly pushed Alastor away from her, kneeling down at a waste bin beside the bed, throwing up. Alastor cringed but fought back his disgust and held back Anna's hair so it wouldn't get in the way until she finished. Anna groaned as she wiped her lips.

"I don't know how much more I can take. I want to go home. If only we had a way-But I'll miss the others, especially Charlie after everything she's done for me. I can't leave her."

"One thing at a time, my dear." Alastor smiled, holding her hand and pulled Anna up to her feet. "We'll figure something out." Anna made a small smile and Alastor's grin went wider, seeing it. Finally, it had been forever since he had last seen it. The two held each others hands for awhile, enjoying each others company, silently. Then Anna blinked when she heard something coming from outside.

"Did you hear something?" she asked Alastor and walked over to the window.

"Only us?" Alastor blinked but followed her over to the widow to look as well. Alastor and Anna's eyes widen in shock, seeing Gabriel, along with several angels outside.

"Lucifer!" Gabriel shouted. "Get out here! Now!"

Alastor turned only to see that Anna was already gone and quickly rushed after her. As he chased after Anna and ran out of the hotel, Alastor saw that Lucifer, Charlie, her mom, along with the others, and Michael were already outside the hotel. Alastor quickly walked over to Anna pushing her behind him.

"What do you want, Gabriel? Extermination day isn't but 5 days away." Lucifer demanded, narrowing his eyes at at the angel. "You are violating our terms." Gabriel ignored him as he turned to his angel army, gesturing towards the group.

"This is the army that I have warned you about! Don't let their forms deceive you! We must strike now!" He told them. Ariel noticed Michael and her eyes widen in shock before they saddened then turned angry.

"Michael, how can you stand with these sinners! How can you turn your back on your family like this!" Michael stepped up about to walk over to them when Lucifer stopped him with his cane. "You stabbed him first." He growled at Ariel. "We did no such thing!" Ariel shouted at him. But Michael pushed past Lucifer, keeping his eyes on his brothers and sisters.

"Gabriel is leading you lie! It was he who had turned on me! What army are you talking about!? These sinners have found redemption for themselves." Charlie stepped up, standing beside him.

"My hotel is to give the chance for sinners to redeem themselves if they choose to, to stop the extermination from happening." She told them. The angels stood silent, quietly taking in everyone's forms, while Gabriel glared at Charlie.

"You don't have a say in this! In fact, you're an abomination in front of our eyes! You shouldn't even exist!" He shouted at her. Lucifer growled and his eyes turned red before Lilith stopped him, calming him down.

"You know, Michael does have a point. This is an army?" Ariel pointed out to the other angels. "5 souls?"

"Maybe we should hear them out?" One of the angels murmured.

"Better yet, why don't we have the big man come down here and see for himself?" Lucifer smirked, pulling out a small phone, shaped like a horn. Gabriel's eyes widen before he quickly turned back to the some of the angels.

"You're really going to let him do this? What do you think is going to happen if father founds out that you turned your backs on him?" Some angels went silent while some were unsure. Just before Lucifer could dial the phone one of the angels launched an arrow, knocking the phone out of Lucifer's hand, shattering it.

"What are you doing!?" Ariel demanded, wanting an explanation.

"We can't let him know. Do you want to face his wrath?! What do you think he's going to do to us once he finds out!?" One of the angels shouted, fearfully.

"I'm sure, father, already knows. I'd rather face his wrath than hide from him. He needs to see this." Ariel frowned. She reached into her garments, pulling out her own phone. Several angels lunged at Ariel to grab it from her. Ariel quickly ducked and flew upwards. Several angels chased after her, until one managed to pin Ariel down and knocked her out, carrying her off.

"We got to get that phone!" Charlie shouted.

Lucifer flew at Gabriel and started to fight against him, while Lilith, Charlie and the others started to clash with some of the other angels.

"We need to help them!" Anna quickly told Alastor. Alastor called Husk over and placed Anna on Husk's back and he started to clear a path as he used his microphone to sprout tentacles from the ground, to hold back the angels. "I'll catch up as soon as I can! Husker, you better..." Husk cut him off, rolling his eyes.

"Don't worry, Al, I'll keep the kid safe." And Husk flew off, chasing after the angels, who carried Ariel off to get the phone. While flying above the city, Anna noticed several angels flying behind them, trying to catch up. "Husk!" She cried out. Husk saw the angels and tried to shake them off but they were getting closer. Husk tossed Anna onto a rooftop when an angel darted to them and crashed into Husk. Anna ran along the rooftops, trying to catch up to Husk as he fought against the angel. Anna saw another angel about to pounce at Husk from behind. She jumped off the roof and landed on top of the angel, grabbing it's wings, steering it. The angel fought against her trying to throw Anna off. Anna hang on tighter.

Smack!

The angel had crashed into a large billboard sign and the two fell onto a roof. Anna pushed the angel off of her and stood up. She saw Lucifer and Gabriel fighting near the clock tower and saw Gabriel grab Lucifer by his wing, slamming him against it. Some pieces of glass from the from the clock, fell to the ground and onto to some unfortunate bystanders. "Once I'm through with you, I'm going after your wife then that brat of yours."

"You're not going anywhere near them!" Lucifer roared. Then Gabriel slammed his elbow into Lucifer's wing, causing him cry out in pain. Gabriel tossed Lucifer and him flying and crashing into the ground. Anna saw Gabriel about to swoop down to deliver the final blow when she saw something shining not too far at the edge of the roof. Her eyes once she saw that it was Ariel's phone. She must have dropped it when the angels had carried her off! Anna quickly ran over to it and quickly dialed the phone. She looked over the rooftop to see Gabriel about to drive his sword through Lucifer's neck.

"GABRIEL!" Gabriel growled and quickly turned his head to her. Anna held the phone in front of her, showing it to Gabriel. "I already called. He's coming." Gabriel dropped Lucifer and flew up, heading towards Anna. Anna quickly scrambled away, backing away from him.

"It's over!" She shouted at him. Gabriel still continued advancing towards her, dragging his sword behind him.

"This is far from over. Not until every single person in this place is dead, starting with you" He growled. "I've just had enough of you. You have been a thorn in my side since the beginning and I won't let a filthy sinner like you ruin everything that I have worked hard for!" Anna screamed as Gabriel raised his sword about to bring it down on her. Anna felt herself slowly being pulled away. Her face was pressed against a chest. Her eyes widened, seeing that it was Alastor when he pushed her and himself away from Gabriel, receiving a small gash in his side when Gabriel struck. Alastor quickly ran as he carried Anna in his arms, using his shadow to help maneuver himself to the ground.

Gabriel landed down in front of the two and started to inch closer. Alastor glared at him, holding Anna closer to him as he backed away. Gabriel grinned wickedly as he raised his blade again to strike them down. But before he could strike, there was a low rumble coming from above the clock tower. A loose bolt fell out form the bell and the bell rolled out the shattered glass and fell down, crashing down on top of Gabriel. A loud gong echoed out for a final time. Alastor blinked owlishly when Anna gaped in shocked.

Suddenly, a bright blinding light beamed down from the sky and a tall person slowly began to appear, with pale, beautiful, pristine white skin, but also human, aside from no nose. He was wearing a white top hat and a white suit with golden linings and gloves. Husk flew down landing beside Alastor and Anna. Lilith and Charlie ran over to Lucifer until they saw him as well unable to take their eyes off him. God. His multiple eyes stared down at the group as he took in the damage.

"I see that Gabriel has done and made a mess of things. I will see to it personally that he and the others are dealt with severe punishment."

"Uh, thank you?" Charlie stammered, nervously, still shocked to see how tall the benevolent being was. "I'm Charlie. I'm-"

"I already know who you are." He grinned. Charlie blinked before smiling.

"Oh, that's great! Then you must know about my-"

"Your hotel for redemption?" He cut her off. "I am very aware of it, having have one of your patrons here with me."

"With you?" Charlie questioned before everyone's eyes widen in shock when they saw Angel Dust in God's hand, along with his sister.

"Hey, you losers! Look at me now!" Angel shouted, grinning, waving down at them. Charlie covered her mouth in shock, while Vaggie stared in disbelief, along with Husk who was also relieved to see that Angel was okay. Angel was placed down, along with his sister. Husk ran over, hugging him and Angel hugged him back.

"Angel!" Anna cried out to him, happy to see him. She was about to run over to hug him, but her vision started to fade.

"Anna!" Alastor shouted and caught her before she collapsed. She was drifting in and out. No. He can't lose her! Alastor clenched her hand tightly in his. "Where is that damned book!?"

"We have it back at the hotel." Charlie told him. Alastor's eyes widened before he turned her. "What?"

"We have it back at the hotel. It's been there for a while now." She said.

"You...you had the book this entire time and you could have sent her home!" Alastor shouted, furiously.

"I-I need her to help me with the hotel! I'm sorry!" Charlie insisted. "But there's still time! She still hasn't changed fully! We can still save her!" Charlie told Husk to grab the grimoire in her office. Husk quickly flew back to the hotel to retrieve it and quickly brought it back. Charlie quickly took it from him and read from the book, opening a portal. Alastor picked Anna up. Anna groaned, opening her eyes, shaking her head.

"Anna, you have to." Alastor told her. She reached out to him, making Alastor flinch a little.

"Alastor, I love y-" Before she could tell him, Alastor quickly tossed Anna into the portal, shocking everyone. The portal closed up.

"Alastor! WHAT THE FUCK!?" Angel shouted at him. "You could've given us a chance to say goodbye!" Alastor said nothing. Angel growled and walked over to him and grabbed Alastor by his collar, shaking him roughly and hitting him. "Say something, you prick! Why did you do that!?"

Husk stopped Angel, pulling him back. "Kid, stop."

"Why should I!? He-" Angel blinked and turned back to Alastor to see his smile starting to crack about to break.

"It would have made things harder." Alastor told him. "It's better this way."

The human world...

Area unknown...

Anna groaned when she opened her eyes and slowly sat up. She looked around to see she was in an unfamiliar place but surrounded by trees to found out that she was in a forest. The nighttime stars shined down on her. She saw that she was no longer in her deer form, completely back to normal. A human. Anna felt her heart began to grow heavy as she tried to fight back the tears that were beginning to fall.

She was back home. But at what cost? She was alone...Everyone that she knew was gone. The world began to crash down on her at once. More tears began to fall onto to the ground. She screamed which came off like a wounded animal.

"Damn you, Alastor! Why!?" She cried out, hitting the ground with her fist. "I didn't want to go back! I didn't want to leave you!" She hit the ground again. "You didn't even let me get to say goodbye..."
