Lex turned as he looked to Faida and just burst in to laughter. " Ok enough with trying to humor our perps already Faida. I'm with Jesse this is really creepy. Faida come on be serious. You and Radiance are beautiful and both very sweet but don't give into their dilution. " He said as something caught his eye in the corner of the room. He walked over as he mashed a button and the table top pulled back revealing a arsenal of guns. " What on earth? Who do we have James bond and Assassin's creed after you? I know that beautiful women are always trouble this his is a looked to Jesse. " On a less creepy note. For christmas this what I'd love to add to the house. I like the style prepared. I just don't like knowing it's against us. " He said as he looked around trying to see any clues of Radiance. " I don't see any clues to help us where Radiance is now. At lest we know she isn't dead at least yet." He said as he looked to Jesse and Faida. " Lets go to the mountain where the Shrine is. My gut says they have her there. "

Faida went silent and nodded at what Lex said. She knew he wouldn't believe her but it was worth a try. Her eyes widened when guns were revealed. "Oh my goodness..." she whispered and counted the guns. "There are over twenty firearms here.." she noted and looked back at Lex and at Jesse. "We must hurry before Radiance gets hurt." she said and looked back at all the photos and the photo of the female with the writing on it before returning her attention to the men.

"Really? You want something like this?" he asked and shrugged. "Well yes I guess it would be pretty cool to own one so that you could show off your weapons when you wanted to." Jesse admitted. "Well then we should get going, every second that passes could be too late you know." he said to Lex.

Lex nodded as he looked to Jesse. " Well of course wouldn't you want something like this? You wouldn't have to worry if anyone broke in you would have the upper hand. And if we train Radiance your house will be well protected. I mean after we go save her of course." He said as he lead the way outside. " It looks like we have to go through the woods unless we all have wings and no one told me about it." He said as he started the journey through the woods for the mountain.

Jesse shrugged. "I'm not really sure I'd feel comfortable having so many weapons in my house." he answered and followed Lex through the woods, his eyes looking around in case he found something that could be important. "Actually...I don't know what I would want for Christmas." he confessed and sighed. "I guess a cup of coffee would be fine. I never ask for anything." he admitted and chuckled. "I probably should though."

Faida rolled her eyes at the last comment that Lex said but didn't say anything. Instead, Faida just walked towards the mountain where the the shrine would be. She just hoped that they got there before it was too late, poor Jesse would be heart broken if they were too late and she didn't want that.

" I was being smart honestly I was trying to keep our mind off things." Lex said being honest as he sighed and kept walking. " I'm not even sure what I would want for christmas. Other than a nice relaxing day with no drama and no citizens going crazy." He said meaning it as he saw the base of the mountain. He looked around as he saw a strange rock formation. He walked over to it as he knocked on the rocks and looked puzzled as he heard one large one that sounded hollow. He touched it as it suddenly moved backwards into the side of the mountain and then to the left revealing a secret stair case. He was speechless as he headed up the stairs. He kept his eyes pealed not seeing anyone or hearing anyone. He moved quickly leaping bast sections of steps thanks to his training the climb not really bothering him. He was surprised as they soon appeared in front of a large beautiful lake. It looked like opal with all the colors in it. He felt a since of peace here as he saw the beautiful wildlife growing around the lake. He then saw several figures tied up in front of it. He looked around not seeing the men as he moved forward heading over to the figures. He froze instantly as he stared at the being beside the Sheriff. "What on earth?" He said as he looked the being over. He was speechless and didn't know what to make of it.

"A relaxing day off of work sounds lovely. I'm sure that will be a given though. I don't think that people work on Christmas do they?" Jesse asked and looked at both Lex and Faida. Faida only shrugged. "I am not sure but I do not think it is illegal to work on that day." she answered. The two followed him up the stairs, their weapons drawn in case something jumped out. It was clear though. "Show off." Jesse muttered and chuckled softly as he and Faida continued to follow him in silence. When they reached a lake, Jesse stared in awe and approached it slowly. "Wow, this is beautiful." he whispered. Faida smiled and nodded. "Indeed it is." she agreed and looked over at Lex. "Jesse we need to move." she said to him and walked with Jesse over to where Lex stood to notice the Sheriff and Radiance there. "Sheriff! W-what are you doing here?" she asked. "Woah...that's pretty cool." Jesse said when he saw the creature with the Sheriff.

"Am I the only one here who is just wondering what that is." He said pointing to Radiance. However he jumped as he heard someone laughing behind him.

"Ah bravo you brought the Angel Faida to us. And that is the one you call Radiance. She was much prettier with that enchanted necklace on. And her true angel form is beautiful. So what do you think of your lying friend? You know we beat her and tried everything to get her to lure the other angel to us but you stupidly did it yourself. She swore that you wouldn't come and the other angel hated her. However we had a hunch we just needed to wait. " Rayth said as he appeared. He laughed again walked pushing Lex back further to where the Sheriff was. Rayth walked to where Radiance was as he smiled at her. "Poor girl it looks like you lose again. Fate isn't with you. This lake you made from your tears but why wont it work for our loved ones? " He asked as he bent down yanking her head up by her hair as he glared at her. " You have wasted my time there is no cure is there. " He said as he paused for a moment and saw her eyes wonder to Jesse as he smiled and laughed.

"Ahh this one." He said pointing at Jessie." This is your weakness. Does he know your secret? I guess he does now. Here why don't you let him see you as you truly are angel." He said as he threw her forward. He laughed as he Matt appeared from behind Jesse and smacked him in the back of the head with the base of his gun hard."

"NO!!! Radiance screamed as she open her large wings suddenly and rushed to protect Jesse. However Rayth pulled out a dagger and threw it sending it through her wing pinning her to the ground as she cried out in pain. " Your not going to save anyone except the ones we love. " He said as he walked over to her and saw her look at Jesse afraid for him as a tear fell from her eye. Rayth caught it with the blade of his sword as he stared at it and then walked over to a little girl letting the drop drip from his blade as a white light came from the drop and suddenly the girl open her eyes fully healed. Rayth looked to Matt in awe. " She can heal the sickness that the other angel put on loved ones. We just need more of her tears. If we can't get them from hurting her go for the man. I have a feeling she'll corporate for us. " He said as he turned and looked at Faida. " No suddenly moves or you I shoot your human." He said pointing a gun at Lex head.

Faida frowned and turned to look at the male who had spoken up. She stood tall and narrowed her eyes at him, "I do not hate her! We had a disagreement is all, nothing serious." she answered seriously and watched him carefully as he started talking to her friend. "Leave her alone! If you need our help, hurting us is not the way to ask for it." Faida explained and frowned as she held her gun tightly in her hand.

Jesse looked at the creature who was supposed to be Radiance, she looked nothing like the Radiance he knew. "Hey! Leave her alone!" he yelled and fell to the ground, feeling something hard hit the back of his head. His hand reached behind his head to check for blood but he didn't feel any to his relief. Looking back at Radiance, he frowned and crawled over to her quietly. He noticed the dagger that had gone through her wing and tried to calm her down. "Hey..." he whispered and smiled sadly, the hit on his head left him feeling dizzy. "You'll be okay." he whispered and rubbed the back of his head as he tried to carefully remove the dagger from her wing.

Faida's eyes widened as she saw the male put a gun to Lex's head. "No...p-please leave him alone! If you want my help, I'll help but don't shoot anyone." she begged in fear. She didn't want to lose Lex, her job was to protect and that was what she was going to do. Her gun remained in her hand however and she lifted the other to her scarf. "I'm just going to remove my scarf if I may." she said honestly. It would make fighting a lot easier and she would have her weapon of choice with her then.

Rayth paused as he and Matt looked at one another. For a moment they looked regretful for what they had been doing. " We didn't ask for this job. We had no choice in this honestly. Neither one of us could live without the people we love that fell suddenly sick. You see my wife fell sick suddenly under a mysterious sickness that no doctor alive can cure. " He said as he looked to Matt who hung his head and let Lex go as he walked over to Radiance and removed the Knife from her wing as he looked apologetic to her. "You see we thought all angels where like the monster who made our loved ones sick. Matt's little sister fell ill the same mysterious sickness. We treated you the way we did because we thought you where like the others." He said as he looked to Radiance he knelt down to her level.

" We are sorry for the pain but we need help. The monster said that if we didn't kill the fallen angles she would kill the ones we love. For everyone we kill she gives us enough medicine to keep our loved ones alive. If you can truly help then we wont have to do anymore this. Can your tears really cure it forever? I know it just cured this girl but is the sickness going to come back? The angel said that she was the only one that could cure it. But if what we saw was true then there is another way and that's you." He said looking at her.

Matt hung his head not wishing to look at Radiance. He had hurt her he knew. He had played the roll of a doctor to get close to her and find out about her. He knew she would be hurt by his betrayal more than Rayths. Matt looked to Jesse as handed him a cloth and dipped it into the healing water and handed it out to him. He looked to Radiance not able to speak. So he looked to the ground. " I'm sorry, if we had known there was another way we would have never agreed to this. We don't like killing people. You aren't like the other angels. You both care about people. However if she comes then you are in trouble. She hates you two for some reason above all others. I don't understand her issue with you. You are all angels so I'm not sure why she hates you. You should be careful. If she finds out she'll find others to finish what we didn't. " He said softly.

Faida was confused and frowned. "A mysterious illness?" she repeated. "A monster made them sick?" Faida repeated. "Two people are sick with the same illness that no one can cure..." she started and looked over at Radiance before looking back at the male who was speaking. "Radiance's tears are powerful in the healing aspect. Her tears will completely wipe out the illness, won't they Radiance?" she asked Radiance. Surely they could heal these poor loved ones. Her kisses of healing could help but they weren't as powerful as Radiance's tears of healing.

Jesse took the cloth in silence and gently pressed it to Radiance's wound. At least the men were sorry, and knowing Radiance, she would forgive them in a heartbeat because she was forgiving like that. She forgave him for acting like a stupid child so he knew she would forgive these two men for hurting her. "You'll be just fine Radiance.." he said quietly. His head was killing him but he didn't care, he would be okay and Radiance was more important to him.

"Yes, they are in a lot of trouble." Kiasha said as she appeared with a cold look on her face. "Why couldn't you just kill them?" she asked both Rayth and Matt. "Have you become weak now? Have you forgotten that I have the cure that will heal your loved ones?" she asked as she pulled out the vials and threw them to the ground, breaking them. "Now then, why should I find others when I can do this myself?" she asked and looked over at Jesse, Lex, and Faida and smirked. "Well now, what a lovely little group we have here." she said with her large spear in her hand.

Radiance reached out as she wrapped her arms around Jesse holding him close. She softly kissed his forehead as she wrapped her wings around him protectively as Kiasha made her appearance. " Leave them alone! This is not what angels do! You aren't allowed to harm a human directly you know that! How could you be so evil and even kill your own kind?" She asked not liking Kiasha on bit. Something was off about her she was not abiding by the angel code and Radiance felt a evil to her. It made Radiance shutter as she held onto Jesse tighter. She looked at Rayth and Matt sensing that they where endanger as well as everyone there. Radiance narrowed her eyes as she locked eyes with Kiasha. " I may not be able to harm a human but your a different matter. I have no qualms abut fighting you. I may not have all my power nor my sword or my beautiful armor but I wont let you harm anyone here. Faida lets do this together and stand up for the ones we love." Radiance said as she turned letting go of Jesse and walking in front of him, Rayth, and Matt. She held out her hand to Faida. " You are my sister and together lets stop this. I want you happy and everyone else here."


Lex didn't know what to do as he watched Kiasha appeared out of thin air. He looked to Faida as it hit him her question she had asked him. He felt like a dog as he looked to her gently reaching out and grabbing her hand. He looked at her as he gave her a warm smile. " My Queen go I promise not to run and to be waiting when your done. I know you and I know you will win." Lex said to Faida as he leaned over and kissed her cheek before steeping back. He glared at the other angle as he looked at the other people there. " What are you suppose to be? It looks like someone ruffled your feathers. I don't know much about angels but I'm pretty sure hunting your own kind and killing them doesn't make you a good angel. I'm almost pretty sure it doesn't make you an angel at all. " Lex said not really liking the situation. He had a feeling his gun wouldn't be effective at this point against her. " I thought you where suppose to help humans and promote goodness. That is all Faida does. Faida is more of an angel then you'll ever be! " He snapped at the women wishing he could defeat her himself. He honestly feared for Faida and even Radiance. The two might have hide their identity but he could understand why. If anything he didn't want to lose the angels that had fallen into his life. The two had saved him they had saved many of the other people here. He felt powerless but that didn't mean he was going to mope about it. It was trying to buy Faida time to make a move on the angle my antagonizing her. He trusted Radiance and he knew she would protect him and the others from any attacks. He knew that Faida was the only one with a weapon at this point that might come close to at lest harming the crazed women.

Jesse frowned and wrapped his arms around her. He didn't want her to fight this evil looking angel, he didn't want her getting hurt again. "Please be careful." he whispered and kissed her cheek before letting her go. He was having a hard time focusing, maybe the hit on the head was harder than he thought. Looking over at Lex, he smiled. He could tell that Lex was stalling, trying to buy the angels some time.

Kiasha laughed, "Now now, hush Radiance. I haven't done anything." she replied and narrowed her eyes. "Now you just be quiet!" she hissed angrily. "I can do whatever I please! You two have fallen here for disobeying the rules of grace, and then you lie to the very people you cared for! You do not lie! Lies are sins! It is no wonder you two ae stuck down here, you will never return to grace, and I will make sure of it!" Kiasha yelled. When Radiance mentioned fighting her, Kiasha couldn't help but widen her eyes in surprise. "You are willing to fight me?" she asked and laughed. "Well now, how flattering. I gladly accept your little challenge." she said and pointed her spear at Radiance.

Faida was about to speak but closed her mouth and looked down at Lex. Smiling softly, she blushed brightly at the kiss and kissed his forehead gently. She thought it was really sweet of him to talk so nicely about her in front of the enemy. Happily, she removed the enchanted scarf, revealing her beautiful golden armor, her wings and her sword which was now in her hand. "We will stop this Radiance, we have to. It is our job to protect the innocent people and punish the guilty." she said seriously as she raised her sword and prepared to fight Kiasha. She wasn't sure how this would turn out, but she was going to try her best to get rid of this demon who called herself an angel.

Radiance narrowed her eyes as she stared at Kiasha. " You speak as if you know us but you know nothing of us. You are no match for us even fallen child. We are older than you and even fallen we have great knowledge and strength. Because we love these people here we will win we have something to fight for you do not. " Radiance said as she threw out her hand out summoning the power of earth as large stone spikes burst from the earth impaling Kiasha. Lave appeared scorching her wings as Radiance narrowed her eyes. She leaped in the air opening her massive wings as a aura appeared around her suddenly more pillars shot up surrounding Jesse and the others to protect them. "Judgment is not ours to give it is the maker. You have forgotten what grace is and the rules of heaven. You have sinned against your own kind and even our maker. You are arrogant in believing that his punishment for the fallen isn't sufficient. To harm innocent is sin Kiasha. We aren't the only fallen you are as well. Your punishment will be swift and vengeful. The maker will not be kind to you for this." Radiance said as she summoned fire around her hands. " To kill you is not my goal. The maker will choose your punishment. But to subdue you is my goal." She said knowing that killing Kiasha would sentence her and Faida to a even worse punishment.

Lex moved to where Jesse was tearing off a piece of his shirt dipping it into the water and placing it on the back of Jesse head. He was surprised as he watched Faida take off her scarf and saw her. She was beautiful as he watched her. He held onto Jesse as the ground shook watching Radiance. He watched the power she commanded and felt fear for the first time around her and Faida. He could see that Radiance wasn't playing she hand no intent of losing this battle. He looked to Faida as the pillars of rock formed around them making a protective barrier. He wondered if Faida was just as powerful. Radiance said they where. He thought about what was being said as he looked to Jesse. " Why would they be punished? Faida and Radiance would never hurt anyone I don't understand." He said as he looked seeing the Sheriff standing up near them.

Kiasha cried out in pain as she was attacked, that didn't stop her though. Chanting to herself, she summoned darkness and had some shadow serpents wrap themselves around Radiance. Closing her free hand in a tight fist caused the snakes to tighten their hold on Radiance while she used her spear to pierce through Radiance's wing. "You don't want to kill me Radiance? Why does that not surprise me?" she asked and laughed. "If I killed all of your loved ones you would still refrain from killing me, what a shame." she said and smirked. She didn't care if she died, she was already dead really but she just wanted to hurt the angels as much as she could before she left. Kiasha gasped and widened her eyes as she felt something pierce through her. Looking down, she noticed that Faida had stabbed her on her waist.

"Silence! Let Radiance go!" Faida ordered. "Or what? You'll kill me Faida?" Kiasha teased and laughed. "Go ahead!" she hissed and squeezed Radiance harder before throwing her across the room and turned her attention to Faida. Faida narrowed her eyes and pulled her now bloody sword out of Kiasha's waist and frowned. She didn't want to kill her, Faida never wanted to kill anyone. "See? I knew you couldn't do it! You two have become soft ever since you met these poor and troubled souls." she said, motioning over to Lex and Jesse. "One was responsible for the death of his friend, and the other can never make his family proud of him, how pathetic. They are the ones you are defending, two humans who can't even protect themselves." Kiasha hissed.

Jesse sighed softly, exhausted but kept his attention on what was happening. "Angels cannot kill an angel, that's murder. That would be like me killing my sister, it's a crime and the punishment is a lot more serious if they kill her. Angels cannot kill anyone really, they are only allowed to protect. The only one allowed to say who dies is the all mighty father up there." Jesse explained and pointed up to the sky. "Maybe they didn't hurt anyone but there is a reason why they are fallen angels Lex. They broke the rules somehow, and this is the way they were punished. They were banished from heaven and if they kill this angel, they might never be able to return." Jesse added and widened his eyes. "Radiant!" he called out when she was thrown across the room.

Radiance let out a scream of surprised as her eyes glowed. She then was silenced as she felt the wicked creators tighten around her. She wanted to scream from pain as she felt the pain in her wing she felt the wicked things growing tighter around her. Radiance hit the floor as she summoned the power of fire and destroyed the wicked creators around her. Radiance looked to her wing as she pulled the spear out she looked at Kiasha and slowly stood. She walked over to where Keisha was as she looked down at the spear in her hand. She held it out to Kiasha. " If you wish to kill me so bad then do so. I will not fight you. But you will make a vow to not harm one hair on any of the people's here head. You will make that vow to the maker." Radiance said as she stared up at the women looking to Jesse for a moment before looking back to Kisha. " Human's need hope. They have dreams and talents that we don't understand. I wanted to understand what it was like to be human to know why our maker loved them so much. But I'm ready to leave the earth. I would happily die for these people. You don't know anything about them Kisha and that's the sad part. You just see failure but not their victories. Jesse is more than some guy who can't please his family. Your wrong I've seen his family he pleases them but they don't know how to show it. How Jesse see's himself isn't how his family or others do. Nancy is very proud of him and so is his sister. They aggravate him because they want their idea of happiness for him. That doesn't make them bad nor does it make him a failure. So go ahead and Kill me if you wish. If that will make you happy and stop this senseless bloodshed."


Lex looked at Jesse as he heard what he said. He then looked to Kiasha as he heard her rant. " What on earth is wrong with her? I don't believe that Faida nor Radiance did anything wrong if this witch is any indication of what angels are. " He said as he looked up to the sky. " Hey if your watching this isn't funny your going to let innocents die?" He yelled in anger up at the sky.

Kiasha glared at Radiance but was surprised at what she was doing. Was she being serious? Surely this was a joke right? Taking the spear, she stared at Radiance and started laughing. "Who are you to tell me what I have to do?" she asked and raised the spear in her hand, pointing it at Radiance. "You really want to die? You don't mean anything to this male here." Kiasha said and flew over to where they were protected. "If you die, he'll move on, I know he will." Kiasha commented and quickly flew to Radiance, stabbing her with the spear to her stomach. "And if you wish to die, then who am I to turn down a request?" she asked and smirked as she slowly pulled out her spear again.

"Radiant! Y-You don't mean that. You don't want to die..." Jesse started and went pale when she was stabbed again. Listening to Lex, he frowned. "I know they would never do anything wrong, and I'm sure this evil demon will get what she deserves in due time. Right now we just have to hope that they don't die." Jesse explained and frowned.

Faida quickly attacked Kiasha who started to fight back. The two of them crashed against each other from time to time, the sound of clashing metal filled the room as Faida left gashes on Kiasha's arms and legs. "You are no angel! I don't know who or what you are, but you are not touching my friends any more, I won't let you!" she yelled and threw Kiasha against the wall, then stabbed her with her sword on the shoulder, pinning her to the wall. "You will remain there until we think of what to do to you." she explained and ran over to where Radiance was. "Oh dear...come, we need to heal that." she whispered.

Justice suddenly appeared with brilliant light as he hovered above the gruesome seen. His eyes narrowed seeing Kiasha pinned as he stared at her. " You never learn child. You punish innocent for your pleasure you are no different than the first who fell and defied our maker. In your lust for blood you never questioned your victims motive." He said in a voice that shook the ground. He looked over his shoulder as a slight smile rose on his lips. " Archangel Radiance arise and show yourself." He said as he moved and watched as the disformed body vanished into lights. The light orbs rose and then reformed into a beautiful figure.

Radiance slowly open her eyes as she felt her power again. She looked down at her body as she smiled her sword appearing in thin air before her. She reached out and took it as her own genial glow brighten. She hovered beside Justice as she smiled warmly at him. She looked to Faida as she smiled warmly at her and looked to Justice who nodded at her. She held up her sword and then pointed it at Faida. " Warrior Angel Faida return to us!" She said as a bright light appeared around Faida transforming her back into her original angle form.

Justice smiled as he looked back to Kiasha. " Some of us have to learn the importance of our jobs hard ways. The angels here where not guilty of crimes that was rumored they where. They where chosen by the maker to come to earth and learn from the humans to make them better angels. He did what he did so they would not try and rule the humans. He was testing each of the angels he sentenced here. You where to foolish to see a pattern in the angels sent here. All angels sent here where those of great power and position. Power can corrupt the most pure. When the first angel defied the maker he wanted to test his other angels. Faida and Radiance passed with flying colors. Faida though spirited was determined to protect the humans she had grown close to will her life. And Radiance was willing to give hers to protect them. Radiance knew by sacrificing herself and by doing nothing wrong it would gain the attention of the maker himself. You have forgotten that the maker knows each of his creations and loves each of them. That being said you have harmed many and your sentence has been issued. You are going to face the maker for your finally sentence. " Justice said as a army of angles appeared around Kiasha. They wrapped her in golden ropes and pulled Faida's sword from her shoulder. A small army gathered around her their weapons drawn as they vanished in the sky taking Kiasha away to be dealt with.

Justice took Faida's sword from one of the angels and turned to face them as the other angels left to join the others for Kiasha's sentence. " I am proud of you both my sisters. Radiance I have missed your singing as have the others. And dear Faida I miss you fighting at my side and your spirit. You have passed your trails. It's time to go home for you two. You have much to catch up on." He said as he paused and looked at the humans below. He held out his hand as the stone pillars vanished and the place looked as good as new even the shrine was back. Justice looked directly at Jesse and Lex. " I am sorry but I must take these two angels home. " His eyes then shifted to Rayth and Matt as he looked sad speaking to them. " What was done was evil and wrong. Your love for your wife and sister was twisted and manipulated. But in the end you chose the right path. Your loved ones will be healed. Go and live your lives and remember what happen here learn from it." He said as he stared at the lake. He held out his hand as the water vanished as well as any statures of Radiance and Faida. " The story of the fallen ends here today. " He said looking at the Sheriff. " To leave such power here would only cause great sorrow to you and your people. Angel tears are precious just like the lives here. Do not come to this play anymore and seek any of the water here. End your lore on the angels it's time to write a new chapter for it. " Justice said as he looked to Faida and Radiance. " Come we must leave now. " He said narrowing his eyes to Faida knowing she would be the one to question. " This is not good bye to them so come you will see them again." He said in a very caring tone.

Faida joined them and watched as Kiasha was taken away to be punished. Something told her that the sentence wasn't going to be a simple one. Kiasha deserved it though after all the bad she had done. Faida was just glad that no one was killed, she would be devastated if someone had ended up dead because of Kiasha's foolishness. Listening to Justice, Faida frowned. "Leaving? W-why are we leaving?" she asked and looked over at Lex. She didn't want to leave and when would she return anyway? Frowning, Faida said nothing and stood beside Radiance, staring down at the ground.

Jesse couldn't believe what had just happened in front of him. He knew he wasn't dreaming but wow, Radiance was truly a beautiful angel. Well, she was always beautiful in his eyes no matter what. He needed to sleep, and he knew that Lex probably needed to get some sleep. It had been a really long day today and so much had happened that they just needed to take a break and reflect on the day's events.

Radiance frowned as she looked to Jesse. She flew down to him as she leaned in and kissed him gently caressing his face as she smiled happily at him. She turned and looked up at Justice who stared at her. She looked back to Jesse as she let him go and moved to his side. She held out her weapon as it vanished and then appeared before Justice. " Faida and I have found our home. Faida is right our home is here. I don't wish to return and I no longer want my wings. I want to remain here." She said as Justice looked surprised hearing what she said.

"You would give up your wings and all your power to become human? Radiance is that what you truly want? What if your human here dies tomorrow you wont have any powers anymore nor your wings. You couldn't save him even if you wanted to. Are you willing to accept the consequences of your wish? " Justice said as he looked at Jesse. " Tell me human do you wish for this angel to stay with you and become human to be with you? What is your thoughts on this?"


Lex watched everything as he spoke up knowing that the male angel wanted to hear from Jesse. " Excuse me, but I'd like to speak up regarding your other angel. I want her happy because she has made me happy here. I don't want her to leave me and I know that's selfish. But I haven to care for her deeply and if she chose to become human I promise to protect her and try to show her each day how lucky I am to have her. I believe that is how Jesse feels as well." He said as he looked to Jesse and to Radiance. " Things are going to change around here after this. But how we feel for each other never will. If you know either of them you can see how sad they look at the thought of leaving." He said pointing it out to Justice.

Jesse looked over at Radiance and smiled softly, kissing her back softly and sighed softly. "Please don't be sad Radiant. I can wait for you." he whispered honestly. He was surprised when he heard what she had said to the male angel. Hearing the male angel speak, he didn't plan on dying tomorrow. "What can I say?" Jesse started and you could tell he was exhausted. The day's events had taken an emotional toll on him. "Radiant can do as she pleases. I don't want her to go, but she is a big girl and can make her own choices. I love her though. I never thought I'd love anyone the way I love her. I would do anything to make her happy and if she wanted to leave I would let her, if she wanted to stay, I would let her." he said and nodded at what Lex said.

Faida was silent the entire time, she wasn't sure what to do. She couldn't disobey her brother but she didn't want to leave Lex alone either. She cared about him too much to just leave him. Part of her wanted to fight by her brother's side, she missed him but part of her cried out for Lex. Faida didn't move, she just listened, blushing softly at Lex's words. Still, she remained still where she was, unsure of what to do.

Justice smiled as he broke into a chuckle and turned looking to Faida. " Of all the angels I expected you to challenge me. Instead I believe you have rubbed off on Radiance. I'm not sure that's a good thing. Just what I need another you but one who I can't use rank to keep in check." He said as he laughed and looked to Jesse and the others. He looked to Faida once again. " What says you sister. Do you wish to stay as well? I believe how that this discussion would be better with the maker. " He said as he looked to Radiance. " Come with me for now until you can talk with the maker. The humans need rest." He said looking to Radiance.

Radiance looked to Jesse as she bowed her head and turned to him kissing his check as she smiled looking at the Sheriff. " I promise to come back." She said and leaped into the air as she flew to where Justice and Faida was. She took her sword back that Justice handed her as she flew up high suddenly and vanished from the sight of mortals.

Justice followed Radiance as he led her back home. He lead the way back to their old home where some of the other angles waited for them happy to see them once again. Radiance had her own group of friends who wrapped their arms around her happy to have her home. Just as Faida had her own waiting for her. He knew both of the girls well and knew that they wouldn't be happy here now. Their hearts where else where. He knew that they would have to talk with the maker on the matter.



Lex stared as the Radiance vanished along with Justice. He looked to Faida as he walked over to Jesse and grabbed one arm as the Sheriff grabbed his other and they started leading Jesse away. The Sheriff helped Lex get Jesse in his truck and they started home. Lex wasn't sure what to say he was still trying to understand everything that happen. And seeing Faida as and angle was amazing she was beautiful. He helped Jesse out of the truck and into the House putting Jesse on the couch making him comfortable as he fixed them some soup and hot tea. He sat down after getting their food and tried to relax as he ate. His mind was running an mile a minent wondering if they would see the girls again. He finally looked over to Jesse as it hit him that Jesse admitted publicly he loved Faida. " You said you loved her." He said shocked as he smiled.

Faida waved at Lex before quickly vanishing with the others, she was actually happy to be back and see all her friends but she wasn't as happy as she thought she would be. She missed Lex and hoped he wasn't mad at her for leaving him there. Faida would return though, she had to. She was too attached to Lex to just walk away and she knew that Radiance was going to go back to be with Jesse. Those two had a bond that a lot of people had trouble finding, it was really sweet.

Jesse was quiet on the way back home. "Thanks." He said to Lex as he got comfortable on the couch. Taking his food and tea, Jesse started to eat in silence, something he should be used to but he wasn't. At least Lex was still here which was nice. Before he could say anything, Lex spoke and caused Jesse to smile and nod. "Yes I did. I...was that a bad thing to do?" He asked him quietly.

Lex laughed softly and he shook his head hearing Jesse. " No it's not bad at all Jesse. I'm just impressed you've grown a lot since I met you." He said as he at on his food and sighed. " This week has been something else. I think we deserve a vacation after this week. I'm thinking some where with ocean and sand and warm sun. " He said as he sat back looking as if he was basking in the sun. He sighed as he open his eyes and looked said. " It wouldn't be the same without the girls. At lest now we know why they didn't quiet fit in around here. I never thought he girl that I felt was an angle was really an angle. " Lex said as he grinned. He looked over at Jesse as he smiled. " Do you want me to help you to bed when your done?"

Jesse smiled and looked at Lex. "Well, I guess love does that to a person." He answered and grinned at the thought of going to the beach. "That sounds so relaxing right now Lex. I could just lay on the warm sand and take a nap." He replied honestly but happily. "It will be off not having the girls there though. You know, Faida told you they were angels a few times. I understand though, I would have never guessed I'd fall for an angel. The heart works in mysterious ways I guess." Jesse replied quietly before going back to eating his food. He wondered what the girls were up to and finished up his food and tea. "Thanks Lex but I think I can get to my room. I'll help you with the dishes first though." Jesse answered.

Lex nodded as he sighed and finished his meal he got up and started washing the dishes so Jesse didn't have to. He went to bed. Lex slept but not near as good as he once did. He woke the next morning as he sat on the edge of his bed thinking on things. He pulled out his cell phone and talked with the sheriff. He started packing his things and walked out to his truck packing things into it. He pulled different things from the house as he waited for Jesse to wake up taking a break fixing some coffee for them.

Radiance looked around happy to be home but her heart wasn't here. She could see that her old friends where worried. Radiance was put back in her old charge however she had been summoned to the maker as he had a talk with her. She told him how she felt and that she didn't want to be away from Jesse. She could see he was in deep thought.
