"Your uncle." The reflection said. "My name was Lucifel. Now, heh...."

"Why are you in the fountain and not in this realm?" Ashleigh asked, curious about why her uncle was in the water fountain.

"You ridiculous father killed me." Lucifel replied. "All you're talking to is my spirit, as my body is long gone."

"Why did he do that?" Ashleigh asked, "you seem nice enough."

"Because I gained more power than him, and he didn't like it. Neither did the rest of the lights." Lucifel replied. "They branded me a 'fallen angel', and I was subjected to their punishment."

"Fallen Angel?" Ashleigh asked confused now for what her uncle told her.

"Yes. A 'fallen angel' is an angel who has taken on the powers of the underworld." Lucifel replied. "It goes for both light and dark angels. Their punishment for doing so is ripping the offender's wings out. And when that happens, an angel doesn't live for very long."

"Power of the....underworld?" Ashleigh asked, tilted her head.

"Yes...you call it the Shadow Realm, I believe." Lucifel replied. "It's not as bad as you think, to be honest."

"Then why did you want to contact me for?" Ashleigh asked, "does this have a point or something?"

"Yes." Lucifel said. "Do not believe anything your father says. He's as much of a liar he says I am."

Then Ashleigh was grabbed by Uriel and hugged her to protect his preicious daughter.
"Papa, what's going on?" Ashleigh asked, now confused about what she was told from her uncle.
I don't know who to believe now. Uncle Lucifel or Papa. Did Uncle Lucifel really grow in power? Or did he really take the power from the Shadow realm? she thought, seeing her father angry at his brother, for even contacting her in the first place.

"I thought I told you not to contact this realm anymore, Lucifel." Uriel said acidly.

Lucifel smiled. "Ah, baby brother. Good to see how you're still immature." He said calmly.

Uriel's frown deepened, threatening to turn into a scowl. "Leave now, brother." He spat. "And return to the Shadow Realm, where you belong." He raised his hand, indigo electricity sparking in his hand. "Or I'll return you there myself."

"WAIT!" Ashleigh cried and slipped out of her father's arms. With one wave of a hand, the image was change to Kaimiri.
"The only way I figured it out was when he said he got powerful. Your brother required the power by accident" she said, pointing to the real spirit of Uriel's brother, "Lucifel's spirit appeared just as Kaimiri spoke about it. That and he wanted me to turn against you." Lucifel nodded and hugged his neice.

Uriel looked to Lucifel. "Is this true?" He asked coldly.

Lucifel released Ashleigh. "Yes." He said. Naive fool...just like her father....

"Then, why are you here?" Ashleigh asked, "Did you get permission to see me?"
"Enough!" Kaimiri yelled, "One of these days, I will be out of here and get my revenge on you. But on a different note, thank you for getting rid of my father. When I leave this cell, I will get my revenge."

Uriel snapped his fingers, and the image of Kaimiri in the fountain dissapeared. He looked back to his brother. "Lucifel, I suggest you leave this realm, permission or no." He said, his voice like ice.

"And miss out congatualting my younger brother for a few minutes?" Lucifel said, "that was the reason why I was here, to say congrats to you, but never thought to see my neice." He bent to Ashleigh's level.
"Take my advice" he told her, "never take the underworld's power. Especially as now you are Queen. One thing Kaimiri said was true though. You will become a fallen angel and stripped of your powers, if you recieved it. I know that for a fact. Come by to visit anytime, but if you do, you must cast a protection spell on yourself so no power will get attached to you. I was foolish not to and I was cast out. And I don't want that to happen to you." He kissed his neice's forehead.
"Sorry I won't be able to see the wedding bro, rules and reglations, including going out once every 5 years. I chose this day to see you." And with that, Lucifel bowed and disappeared.
"How can a nice guy be forced into a predicument like that, costing his own life?" Ashleigh asked Uriel.

"He is not nice." Uriel replied as his brother's spirit left. "I should know...I had to kill him myself, after he slaughtered the arch angels....That is why I am the leader of the arch angels."

"Then how did he recieve the power? Diliberate or by accident?" Ashleigh asked.

"Deliberate." Uriel replied. "I saw him drawing the circle on the floor and begin the ceremony." He clenched his fists. "And I couldn't do anything to stop him!"

"Cerzzzny? You mean cermoney right?" Ashleigh asked, confused with the term.

Uriel's brow furrowed. "Where did you get that?" He asked. He shook his head to dismiss the odd comment.

"Never mind. Please, continue" Ashleigh urged, trying to put the peices together.

Uriel nodded and closed his eyes, reliving that day. "When I came into the room he was performing the ceremony, to gain that power, Lucifel--my brother--was already in the thick of it." He said. "I tried to stop him by breaking the circle, but he'd gained too much power. Using it, he pinned me to the wall, saying he needed blood for the rest of it."
