Nothing wrong with picking out a diner, right? Dover has at least one of them. A waitress was quick to come to our booth and ask for our orders. She looked at Raquel who pulled an immediate Cas - she froze up because she was very confused and didn't know what to say. "She'll have a water," I spoke for her. "She's not feeling very well right now. As for me I'll have a Coke and a large order of french fries."

Tei orders a root beer and a burger. Even seeing him get excited about food still weirds me out. I have never seen him eat until we started living together. "So Raquel," I began while we waited for our orders. "How did you know who I was?"

"Your Grace," the long white haired angel replied honestly. "It's very different because it has some demonic influence. Therefore it could only belong to Lynn, the Hybrid."

"Wait, I have a title?" I gaped at her. That is so cool! Lynn, the Hybrid! Hybrid usually means one of a kind right?

Raquel let out a chuckle. "Well actually, us angels haven't gone by our titles since the days of old when we were at war all the time. Angels cast away their titles as a way to forget all the fighting we've done."

"Do you remember your title?" I asked her blatantly, not even bothering to consider she didn't want to remember any of it herself. However she just nodded at me.

"I'm the Angel of Lamb," she announced in a low voice. Our waitress returned with our beverages. "Now about Sachiel, can you tell me what he was doing when you saw him?"

"Is that the evil angel's name?" I assumed. "Sachiel?"

"The Angel of Water," Tei acknowledged, and Raquel nodded in confirmation.

While I wanted to know how Tei knew this Sachiel, I answered Raquel in a very low voice. "He's been drowning children."

She looked briefly taken aback. "That's an unusual..." she found herself stopping and thinking to herself. "Many angels have turned their backs on looking over the humans, but Sachiel was not one of those angels."

"So you know him?" I rightly assumed.

Raquel nodded as she took the first sip of her water. "He is difficult to get along with."

"What are you going to do about him?" I asked next, reaching for my soda.

"My orders from Heaven are unfortunately clear," Raquel admitted. "He has to be killed."

"Even if we could convince him to stop?" I wondered.

"He is a powerful angel and it would probably kill us all if we tried to bring him back to Heaven alive." Raquel told us in horror.

Tei smirked. "I will take care of him. I only need to encounter him again." He offered so calmly yet seriously, just before he broke face and began to gulp his root beer.

Raquel watched Tei curiously. "Are you sure?"

"Absolutely." I've never heard such confidence from him before. Was he going to unleash more wild powers like that unbreakable dome shield from Valentine's Day?

"How do we encounter him again? Do we just have to wait for him to go after another child?" I wondered in horror.

"I know exactly how to lure him out," Tei admitted, looking directly at Raquel. "Is he still in charge of his Tablet?"

His what?

Raquel now looked alarmed - maybe shocked that he had mentioned this Tablet thing. "I believe so." Awesome! More secrets! I want to hurt Tei badly. Under our booth table I gently place my hand over his leg to share with him my angry feelings. What does he do? Ignore me like always.

Our food arrives and I eat in angry peace. Raquel could sense my uneasiness but wasn't sure why. She doesn't want to know about these problems. After Tei and I finish eating the three of us exit the diner. "So I assume you know where to go?" I hastily asked Tei.

"If it's in the same place as before then we're going to Niagara Falls." Tei answered. His orange eyes glow slightly as he zaps the three of us immediately there. Even though it was dark now, I could sense we were on Luna Island.

"Raquel, what are we looking for?" I asked her instead. Maybe she'd give the answers Tei refused to give up.

"The Water Elemental Tablet," she said simply, like I was already supposed to know.

"Those kinds of things are real?" I was definitely stunned because that was really neat. Tei started walking around little Luna Island. Raquel decided to head for the bridge that crosses over Bridal Veil Falls. I followed her to possibly annoy Tei, but I think he was more focused on-

"Where do you think you're going?" Tei suddenly took hold of my left wrist to stop me in my place. I guess it worked after all. I didn't have time to scold him for how he grabbed me because we both got blasted by a giant... ball of water? The pressure was outstanding; we went all the way over the bridge Raquel was near and into the water of Bridal Veil Falls.

Raquel narrowed her brown eyes as she saw Sachiel appear near one of the trees. She pulled out a silver colored blade and walked a few steps towards him. There was a certain sparkle to her blade that caught Sachiel's eye. "That's..." He thought he recognized. "I didn't think they'd send one of the Hev after me. They must not really want me dead?"

Raquel shook her head. "You're going to die Sachiel. I need something else from you."

Sachiel grit his teeth angrily. "The exact location of the Water Tablet. You'll never get it out of me."

"We'll see about that, for I am Raquel." She gripped her special blade tighter and now held it out in front of her.

Sachiel widened his eyes, recognizing her name instantly. "You're one of the worst of the Hev! The Unforgivable Lamb!"

Meanwhile, through rushing water I manage to get myself top side as I was getting pulled to the waterfall that was Bridal Veil Falls. I made it to under the bridge from before when Tei managed to get a hold of me in the water, and he zapped us onto the bridge. I fell to my hands and knees completely soaked. My perfect braid is ruined! "Are you alright angel bug?" Tei asked in a very low and cold voice.

"Yeah, I think," I answered, squeezing the water out of my hair as I got up, looking over the way back where we were before, and I saw Sachiel and Raquel fighting each other with blade-type weapons. The angel killing blades Bobby warned me about?

"My love," Tei said next and it caught me by a huge surprise. "Please stay right here." He sounded so low and threatening I nearly gulped. He called me his love. He... he really does love me.

"Okay Tei," I promised. "Please be careful."

I don't think he expected that response from me. His face loosened up for just a moment before he turned completely to me, his orange eyes glowing and he held his hand up. "Omnibus protegat." He called out.

Crap, not this again! In seconds I'm surrounded by that angelic dome from the diner we fought Famine in. I groaned aloud as Tei went off to take on Sachiel alone. I grew alarmed for Raquel - would Tei just kill her too for being in the way? All I can do is watch. I know I can't escape this.

Tei is now just steps away from them. I can see Sachiel start yelling, but because of all the giant waterfalls around us I can't hear anything. Tei whisks his right hand in a sway, and Raquel was sent flying away from Sachiel. I sighed; better that than to kill her right then and there.

"So you're alive, huh?" Sachiel hissed at Teivel. "You survived that back then?"

"You're an idiot for leaving your Tablet in this area and so easily coming here." Teivel laughed at him.

"I suppose so," Sachiel winced. "I had believed you were dead. Even today you're still not going to get that tablet."

"I'm no longer interested in the Tablets," Teivel admitted. "She has deemed you a problem so I will eliminate you."

Sachiel wanted to know who the hell he was talking about. Was it the Lamb or the Hybrid girl on the bridge maybe? He held his angel blade out and leaned forward. If this really was the same guy as back then he knew he would stand no chance, but he was going to fight anyway. "You know, you're the idiot. I'm the Angel of Water, and you're challenging me here of all places?" He confidently remarked. Teivel closed his eyes and began to laugh. Sachiel took advantage of that and channeled another wave of water at him, but it turned out to fail. Why? Teivel dropped down to all fours and began to lunge towards Sachiel.

I watched Tei run like a four legged creature. I was confused and it happened so fast. Right as he neared Sachiel he unleashed a similar angelic shockwave that he used on Anna, onto Sachiel. This time Tei was at full power so this ought to really hurt right? Sachiel was blasted all the way into the waters of American Falls. Tei didn't stop for a second to go after him. For ungodly reasons Tei was able to stay above the water as he ran. Sachiel was manipulating the water around him to stay up as well. This was absolutely crazy!

Sachiel was very injured I could tell; he stumbled a lot. Actually, that blast hurt him even more than he thought because Tei grabbed him and Sachiel couldn't fight back. "You may be the Angel of Water, but waterfalls are my specialty." Teivel uttered to him before he smited him right then and there. Just like that. As Sachiel died he plunged into the water, heading straight for the falls. I gulped as Tei made his way back to recover me.

These powers are too much to be simply angelic. What is going on?


Raquel appeared deeply upset after she came to and was told Sachiel was dead. "Isn't that what you wanted?" Tei reminded her.

"It was but I needed some information from him." Raquel admitted.

"The Water Tablet location?" Tei assumed. "Hold out your hand."

Raquel looked at him confusingly but complied. Tei took her hand and set it on his left palm then putting his right hand over hers. This bothered me for more than one reason and I knew he did it on purpose. He had never shared a memory with anyone other than me at least that I know of, so I feel sort of betrayed and... jealous? These silly human emotions I've never experienced until now. I wonder why.

When Tei finished he stepped back and Raquel was definitely in shock. "Impressive." She nodded. "Thank you."

"What do you have to do now?" I asked her, coming closer.

"I will return to Heaven to report of Sachiel's death and wait for my next assignment." Raquel announced, double checking her weapon was safely put away.

"Assignment?" I repeated. "This was some sort of a job for you?"

Raquel nodded. "I have a special type of job in Heaven. If we encounter each other again, I'll tell you about it."

"Wait Raquel, before you go," I started, waving my hand to stop her from zapping away.

"Yes Lynn?" The white haired angel shreds a smile at me.

"I have a favor to ask of you," I admitted.

"After what you just helped me accomplish, of course. What do you need?"

I gulped lightly. "I'd like to go to Heaven. I want to find the girl my body belongs to."

"I... see," Raquel definitely wasn't expecting this kind of request. "If you could, please wait right here." She immediately disappeared.

I sighed and looked for Tei. He didn't stray too far and he stood with his arms crossed over his chest. I simply stare at him as the night gets darker and darker. My own eyes could be playing tricks but I swear his are still glowing. He's... he's damn near perfect to me. I think I can look past all the secrets; I don't know what kind of life Tei lived before he was put to sleep. I don't know how long he slept. I don't know why he was put to sleep, or who did it. What I DO know is that there's nothing he won't do to protect me, and somehow he fell in love with me along the way. To top it off, I think I may be ready to admit that I-

Raquel appears literally in front of me and it scared me pretty badly. I yelped and stumbled back. Tei narrowed his eyes and smirked at me. "Thank you for waiting," Raquel started. "Lynn you have permission to enter Heaven, however..." she turned to look back at Tei. "You must remain down here or you will both be met with the full force of Heaven."

I can't believe she low key threatened us like that. Tei rolls his eyes even though I was expecting him to say no. "We understand," I spoke for him. "How exactly do I enter Heaven?"

"I have been asked to direct you to The Powers and I will help you summon them." Raquel explained.

"The Powers?" I'm getting hit with all kinds of new things today.

"They have a special job too but not like me. You could call them the demon hunters." Raquel lets out a low chuckle as if she was making fun of them. "But there's one member in particular who can help you find who you're looking for."

"I understand," I tell her quickly. "Can we go somewhere else to summon the demon hunters?"

Raquel was very amused. "Of course." She snapped her fingers and we're now at a children's playground. Supposed to be empty at night anyways so this makes sense. "I am going to contact them now." Raquel announced, closing her eyes and putting two fingers over her right temple. I knew what this was - Dean and Sam called it angel radio. We stand still and wait for Raquel.

She eventually opens her eyes and turns around just as three people appeared before us. I heard the flap of their wings ahead of time so I knew they were angels. They must be the demon hunters. It was two male vessels and one female vessel. She stood in the back with one of the guys, and the other guy stood in front of them both - he must be their leader. He sure looked like one, he appeared so angry he could rival Tei. His hair was the color of a fireball and he bore green eyes as bright as mine. The other guy kept a straight face and appeared calm. He had floppy blonde hair with blue eyes and his vessel appeared to be a young man, definitely younger than Fireball here. The lady angel reminded me of Raquel in regards to hair - Raquel's was white and this lady's was silver. She too was possessing a younger person so the hair colors blew my mind. She also had blue eyes like the blonde haired angel.

"Which one of you called us here?" Fireball asked us.

"That would be me at the request of Lynn here." Raquel admitted.

Now Fireball was glaring at me. "What do you want?"

I was nervous now so I gulped. Tei is standing next to me at this point, ready to look intimidating if he has to. Fireball gave him a quick glance before focusing back on me. His stare creeped me out so much I goofed this up. "Okay listen I'm a half-demon if you guys didn't know, but I think you do because Raquel said I'm the Hybrid. I'm a good person or I try to be, please don't hunt me... demon hunters."

I was met with dead silence before Fireball spat at Raquel. "Demon hunters? We The Powers are more than that, you know?"

Raquel actually shrugged at him. She was acting like a completely different person now, nothing like the timid angel from earlier. Maybe it was all an act? "She needs the Counselor." She let out finally.

The lady angel immediately looked to her left at the other male angel, prompting me to believe he's the one who can help me find Angela. "Me?" He spoke in a clear but low voice. "I've never been called that before."

Fireball grunted. "The Hev always have some kind of nickname for everyone. They think they're better than the rest of us."

Raquel shut him up with, "You don't want to know what your nickname is, Oro."

The silver haired angel let out a laugh but immediately regretted it when Fireball - I mean Oro grit his teeth. "So what if I don't let the Counselor help you?"

I went to say something but Raquel simply said, "Then I temporarily let out the Extractor from the Jail and send him after you."

I swear Oro's hair turned white for a moment. He very quickly turned to face the other two angels. "Exarp, help them with what they need and then report back."

"Very well." The Counselor nodded before Oro and the lady flew away. I want to know who this Extractor is because he sounds terrifying. I also want to know what 'Hev' is, is that what Raquel's special job is? I didn't have time to ask because Exarp looks at me for the first time and he widens his eyes. I knew that look, it was recognition. "You said your name is Lynn?"

I nodded. "Have we met before?"

"I haven't met you, but..." Exarp trailed like he couldn't figure out how to explain it. "I think I recognize your vessel."

Slight excitement surpasses me. "Her name was Angela. Do you know her?" I asked and his nod was the confirmation I needed. "Raquel said you can help me see her."

"If you're really wearing her body as a vessel I don't think that would be a good idea," Exarp suddenly argued. "She wouldn't understand. She's got the mindset of a baby or a very young child even."

"I don't care," I said with an increased attitude. "I want to tell her I'm sorry and I want her to know that I'm going to take care of her body. I'll find her with or without your help."

Tei leaned down into my ear but said loud enough for Exarp to hear. "I think we should take a trip to California."

I don't know what that means but to Exarp that was a very real threat for some reason so he narrowed his eyes. "I will take you to see Angie."

I hit Tei as hard as I could in his side. He looked at me like I was crazy as I told Exarp, "I'm sorry for what he just said to you. We are NOT going to California. We will be going back HOME after this." I pull away and stand near Exarp. His eyes glow and we become surrounded by some kind of celestial energy. Before I could say goodbye to Tei we were gone, now reappearing in a long hallway. Everything was white with doors going up and down all the way along both walls. "What the hell is this?"

"The door to Angie's Heaven," Exarp replied. "I usually skip this step but since you're here I didn't want to startle her." He literally opens one of the doors before us. As I follow him through I read the door. It read Angela only, followed underneath by 1995 - 1995 which makes me gulp. I'm so sorry.

"Wait a minute," I said as we enter what is now an apartment. "I know this place. This was the apartment my family lived in when my siblings and I were born and very young."

"She must remember it from inside the womb somehow," Exarp suggested. He looked around the living room, which was empty. Then we could hear giggling. I grew nervous because it sure sounded like it was me giggling. Young me, I mean. Exarp smiled a little bit before he asks me to stay here and he goes through the living room to the short hallway that led to the two bedrooms and one bathroom the apartment held. Exarp slowly opens one of the bedroom doors and goes, "Hello Angie."

I hear a happy screech, followed by "Arp-arp!" And tears well up in my eyes. She sounded so excited to see him and I felt sick to my stomach that she had to die so I could be here. Why couldn't it have been anyone else?

"How are you feeling?" I hear Exarp ask her.

"Good." She answers him. "Arp-arp feeling?"

"I am good too," Exarp said quietly. "I have to tell you something important, okay?"

"Important, ears open!" Angela exclaimed. Meanwhile the tears keep rolling down my face as Exarp does his very best to explain to her that she's about to meet someone who looks just like her. Eventually Exarp was ready to bring her out. I wiped my eyes as best I could before I finally came face to face with the person my vessel belonged to. It was so deeply strange looking at literally yourself. She was so little. I can't believe I'd been that small.

"Angie say hello." Exarp advised her.

"Hello!" Angie says loudly. She comes right up to me and it nearly startles me. "Are you me?" She askes me, completely shocking Exarp.

"My name is Lynn," I introduced in between trying not to choke. "But this is your body I'm inside of. It happened after you came here."

Exarp appeared worried but Angie might have actually understood. "Down below?" She wondered. I nodded on the chance she meant Earth. She didn't say anything so I took this time to get ready to apologize to my dead vessel. I took a breath and began but Angie quickly interrupted me by jumping up into my arms for an affectionate hug. "Angie and Arp-arp and Lynny!" She proclaimed.

Exarp tried to laugh humorously but I lost it all over again. I cried like a baby that Angie would always be forever.
