Chapter 50
Meanwhile across town with the Crew.
Since the previous night, the Crew and Gemini engaged in constant battle with the end result always Gemini fleeing for their life. Frustration and exhaustion slowly took it's hold over the Crew. The relentless battles all night and all day. The Crew didn't stop the hunt for the General. No matter how bloodied and dirty they became.
Soon their struggles were paid off, after so long they finally had pinned the General down. Victory for the Crew will soon be theirs, but during their fight the Angelic, kept smiling.
It was a sickening sight, deranged and stretched from ear to ear. It was a struggle enough to wound this powerful Angelic, but that smile sent the Crew on edge. As they each fought the Angelic, they forced their minds to focus on the task at hand. Focusing on the Angelic's fast movements and kill any spy creature it leached from their fur. Michelle's advise
played in their head like a broken record. "aim for their heads"
Ava skidded under one swing of the Angelic's hand and dove forward while their back was turn. This was her chance, all she had to do was cut off one of those
deadily arms or legs and the Old Gods curse should take hold. Ava looked up and took in the sight of Angelic's back. She stopped and stared at the smooth flat back with terror. “what?" she cursed lowly.
Ava didn't see the leg before it struck her hard and sent her crashing to the ground. She grunted, clutching her chest and cursed "motherfucker"
"Ava!" Beatrice called out. Beatrice sliced off the offending leg and sprinted to her wife. The Angelic howled behind her, wobbling from her missing leg before quickly gaining control and continued the fight. The rest of the Crew held off the General as Beatrice rushed to Ava's aid. She collapsed on her knees and helped
her wife sit upright. "Are you okay?"
"Fine, just got the wind kicked out of me" Ava answered. She turned back to the General and blinked, hoping what she saw was wrong. Unfortunately it wasn't and
she growled, her eyes shifting to white. "that sneaky prick" both Avas' cursed.
Beatrice followed her lover's gaze confused, turning back to her. "what's wrong?"
"Gemini has two heads, that's what my mother said"
"Yes?" Beatrice answered confused.
"They had it on our first encounter and now they have one”
Beatrice's eyes widen as she turned back to Gemini, to their single head and her eyes flashed white with anger. "how did I not see it!" she cursed, frustrated with herself.
“Doesn’t matter, lets find out where their other half went” Ava stated. She pulled herself and Beatrice to their feet. “Take the legs I’ll deal with the head”
Together they ran at the Angelic General as it lunged for Camila and Serita. They sliced off the Generals back legs, then Beatrice kicked the General sideways in the ribs. Missing the couple by a mile. The General, winded and bleeding, darted to their feet. The others caught on and each sliced off a limb. The general darted around the Crew. Avoiding one to only be injured by another.
Soon the General collapsed to the ground. Ava sprinted forward and slammed her sword in their chest. Pinning the General to the earth.
Severely wounded, the General looked up at the Crew and roared with laughter. “Is that it?” They spat. “Such tiny creatures, your power doesn’t compare to the hell I faced” purple smoke emitter from their wounded limbs and began taking the form of new legs. “You see!” Gemini boasted. “My Powers are beyond your understanding”
“Sure” Ava answered sarcastically. “Now tell me where did your other half go?”
“Far from here, but close at hand”
“Where?” Ava questioner again. The Angelic mocked her. She gripped the handle of her sword and forced it sliding to the left. The Angelic howled in agony. Ava leaned close and demanded again “WHERE!”
The General paused for their sadistic smile. “They are hunting”
“Who?”
“Your daughter’s”
The Crew tried to hide their fear, but the emotion blazed on their faces before their masks were set. Ava grabbed Beatrice’s hands to keep them focused in the present and more importantly, support for this new discovery. The General laughed wickedly.
“Your daughters will be devoured before the sun sets, I vow this and my will shall be done”
“Not this time” Ava states coldly. With her free hand she removed the Halo and raised it to the Angelic. It’s been a while since she had to remove the Halo from her being. Since then, the metal had grown in the centre reaching one side to the other in perfect straight line. She cupped the line as a handle.
Angelic still smiled till they released what was in Ava’s hand. The Halo sparked to life and its scream made the Angelic’s face drop to a look of terror. It started crawling at the ground for freedom, however it could get nowhere with Ava’s foot pinning the beast down. “No!” Angelic shouted. “You can’t do this to me, I am the Goddess Reya’s General. You shall not do this to me”
“I shall”
The Halo howled and the General screamed as their soul and body alike were pulled into the vortex. Consumed, dust of gold spilled out of the Halo and floated into nothing. The Halo closed its vortex jaw and hummed satisfied in Ava’s hand.
The anguish howls of Gemini’s other half echoed to the Crews ears and they faced the direction armed for battle.
“We need to find that fucker before they find our kids” Ava states. Glaring off into the distances.
Beatrice frowned at the anger spread along her lovers face. She closed the gap and took Ava’s hand into her own. “We will” she vowed. Ava’s head tilted to her and met her eyes. “The General is wounded. We’ll find them, but we have to stay focused”
Ava smiled. She nodded. “I’m sorry”
“It’s okay, we got this” Beatrice assures. She leaned over and placed a kissed her lover’s temple. She helped guide Ava’s hand to her spine, pushing the Halo in its safe cradle under the skin.
“We should probably talk to the others on why the Halo has a handle right?” Ava asked.
“Most definitely, but we shall do it later”
“Alright you two, lets move it!” Lilith ordered. “We got a General to kill”
Back with the teenagers
When the storm cleared an hour.
Persephone decided enough time was wasted hanging around in her tent. She laced up her boots, hid her gun under her shirt, swung a backpack on and began the search for her missing girlfriend. The others woke to the sounds of her movements and since two already disappeared, they joined her. Leaving their campsite behind. The trio set off into the forest.
It didn’t take long for the girls to form a group. Persephone set the pace, hell bent on finding Hanna and leading the way. Kit, an experience hiker in this forest, directed the group. Addams observer, her eyes focused on the details before them and around.
“We should wait till morning” Kit advised.
“Morning is too long away” Persephone grunted. The tension rising in her tone and she tried not to take out on her friends, but her frustration was leaking through her control.
“Only a few hours”
Persephone grunted.
Kit rolled her eyes, a low sigh exhaled and she asked “I get it, but you need to sleep cause sleepy Persephone is a bitch to be around”
“I’m fine!”
“You’re not”
“I am-“
“Persephone listen to her!” Addams ordered, interrupting their argument. The others focused on her as she narrowed her gaze down at Persephone. “We’re all worried for them, but tramping around in the dark won’t find us anything”
Persephone huffed, focusing ahead. She was well aware her friends were right, but her frame of mind was too stubborn to agree. “Lets just find them” she huffed, then picked up the pace.
The distance between the three grew by the second. Persephone kept her gaze dead ahead. Taking no notice of the sounds of wet mug under her feet. She didn’t realise something dark was lying in her path until she hit it.
“Watch it!” Kit shouted but it was all too late.
Persephone hit the object with a hard thump, she toppled forward and the dark mass rolled with her. She faced palmed the group, face into a puddle of dark substance. She groaned, pulling herself upright as the others rushed to her aid. Pulling her to her feet. “The hell?” She croaked confuses.
“You okay?” Addams asked concerned.
“Yeah” Persephone answered. “Just a bit muddy”
“What did you hit?” Kit asked as she shined the touch behind them. Her eyes widen at the sight. “Oh shit”
Addams hummed, lifting her torch to Persephones face. She pulled out a sleeve and helped brush off the brown-red substances. “I don’t think this is mud”
“Girls!” Kit said.
“Yes sweetie?” Addams answered. She turned to her girlfriend and frowned at the terror look. “Sweetie?” She asked again. She followed her girlfriend’s sight and frowned at the clump on the ground
“We should get out of here”
“Agreed”
“What are you all looking at?...” Persephone asked as she turned around. She looked down to the ground and let out a terrified scream. Addams quickly wrapped her hand around Persephone’s mouth, holding the woman close as Kit started looking around.
The object in their path was no rock or fallen branch. Not an animal, but the remains of a person. A Sister Warrior, without the head and both arms torn off. Polling blood off the ground and forming a puddle where Persephone fell. Around them they shined their torches and discovered more bodies scattered around.
A massacre had laid siege under their noses and not too far from their camp. The haunting buzzing of flies picked up in their ears and they shudder with terror.
There was only one thing that they believed who could have done this disaster. Unfortunately, the trio weren’t aware of the Angelic haunting the woods.
“Abyss” Persephone gasped as Addams hand dropped from her mouth. “She’s here”
“How? Why?” Kit spoke confused. “I thought we were cool”
“Never trust a Demon” Persephone pulled out her gun and primed the weapon. Her friends jumped at the sight.
“Woah what the fuck!” Kit cursed.
“Where by the dark Goddess blessing did you get that!” Addams states worriedly.
“Always had it” Persephone huffed, taming the weapon with both hands. She turned to her friends and stated coldly “Just in case”.
“In case of what?” Addams asked concerned. “When did you get this? Since meeting Abyss”
“Don’t say her name!” Persephone growled warningly. “You’ll draw her in” she whispered. Then she pulled back suddenly and declared “No hang on that’s good”. She turned to the sky and shouted “ABYSS!”
“SH!” The couple hissed.
“Have you fucking lost it!” Kit hissed.
“ABYSS!”
“I knew I should have decked you and left you to sleep until morning” Kit huffed irritated.
“COME OUT AND FACE ME!”
“Will you SHUT UP!” Addams roared and Persephone turned to her surprised.
“What?” Persephone asked.
“Don’t What me!” Addams snapped. “If Abyss was behind this, then leading her straight to us like that will kills us all!”
“Hey my girlfriend is in danger and that Demon is running around someplace! We need to kill it!”
“We don’t know if it’s her or not”
“We do” Persephone insisted. “Fine, we need more firepower is that it?”
“What no?”
“We do, that will convince you” Persephone forced her gun into Addams hands. Then shrugged off her back pack and pulled out another gun with one hand and another for Kit. She dropped the bag and the bag rattled with metal. Persephone turned to Kit, saw her terrified eyes widen at the sight and ignored it. “Here!” She grunted, offering the gun to Kit. “Take it”
Kit looked up at her friend and whispered shocked “are you serious?”. She must be hearing her friend wrong, after all she’s been through. Her friend knows well enough she will never pick up a gun again. Yet Hope was foolish and the sneer and sleepless frustration on her friends face told Kit she was far then just serious.
“Take it!” Persephone ordered, a low growl in her tone.
Kit took a step back, shaking her head. “I can’t! You know I can’t!”
“Don’t be a fucking coward take it!” Persephone cursed and dove forward driving the gun towards Kit.
“HEY!” Addams screamed, ripping the gun from Persephone’s hand and taking a stand between them. Shielding her girlfriend. Glaring murderous intent at their friend. “SHE FUCKING SAID NO!”
Persephone scoffed irritated. “WE NEED-“
“WE DON’T NEED GUNS!” Addams snapped. “What the fuck are you playing at, you know fully well my girlfriend has a vow against using guns and you think it’s fine to force it into her hands”
Persephone’s anger dropped, into shame of her action. “I didn’t mean...”
“You bloody well did” Addams growled.
Kit looked back and forth between the two then took off running.
Addams turned back to her girlfriend, followed her retreating form and groaned. “Sweetie wait” she called. She turned back to Persephone and sneered “Apologies to her, you can keep your guns but we are not having any of it!” She forced the guns into Persephone hands and marched away. Weather Persephone followed her or not, she did not care to wait.
Persephone turned to the sky and howled frustrated. “fuck me dead” she groaned. Persephone turned her attention back to her friends and chased after. Shoving her weapons into her backpack as she went.
Addams caught up with her girlfriend in seconds. “Sweetie hold up!” She called. She tackled her girlfriend from behind, wrapping her arms around her lover’s waist.
Kit groaned, dropping back against her girlfriend. “I’m sorry” she sniffed. Forcing the tears away. “I’m sorry I can’t”
“You don’t stop being a badass because you can cry” Addams whispered in her lover’s ear. Then placed a gentle kiss on her earlobe for good measure.
Kit chuckled sadly.
“I’m sorry she tried that with you” Addams apologised.
“Don’t be, thank you for sticking up for me”
“Anytime sweetie”
Soon Persephone caught up to them. Her heavy footsteps ended their peaceful moment. Addams groaned into her lover’s hair. Kit laughed and whispered playfully “be nice”. Kit pulled away from Addams first. Walking around her lover as she fixed Persephone a disappointed look. Her girlfriend’s hands held tight in her own. To keep her from marching into darkness. “You seriously tried to pull that with me, I don’t take guns Persephone!”
“I know, I’m sorry” she apologised. “I just want my girlfriend back and I think the only way to get her back is to kill that Demon”
“We don’t know if she’s here”
“Then who else could have done this?” Persephone questioned. Throwing her hands in the direction do the massacre site. “Why won’t you pick it up? Are you afraid to be made a threat?”
“No, cause I am the threat” Kit states. “I use a gun and they will die no matter what they are or how many. It’s safer for them to fight with fists or a bat. Least this way I have control over the outcome”
Persephone scrunched her face confused. “Guess you’re right”
“I am, I know my strength better then anyone”
“I’m sorry”
“You said that already, please don’t do that again”
Persephone nodded.
A flash of light and the group jumped. Closing ranks as the light disappeared to reveal Lilith, Mary, Serita and Camila.
“Jesus Christ Mums!” Kit cursed.
“Language!” All four retorted.
“Why are you three out here in the middle of the night?” Lilith asked as they closed ranks around the girls. The others peered into the trees with guns level and ready to fire at a moments notice. “Where’s Hanna and Cira?”
“We don’t know, we’re looking for them” Kit confesses.
Lilith hummed. “Okay, lets get you three safe and we’ll take over the search”
“Is it here?” Addams wondered aloud. “The thing you were chasing”
Lilith nodded. “Have you seen it?”
“No” the trio answered.
“We thought Abyss was behind them” Persephone answered.
“No not her” Lilith answered.
“Who’s them?” Mary questioned.
“There was Sister Warriors here, they died back there”
Mary bit back a frustrated snarl, but not enough control to hide the curse “motherfucker”
Lilith turned to her girlfriend, but didn’t protest. She turned back to the teenagers. “It’s okay we’ll handle this, now all of you grab a hand”
They did and suddenly they were all teleported out of the woods back to the safety of Cats Cradle.
Back in the Cave
Since Cira and Hanna returned to their secret hideaway. The poison took its hold on the Hybrid. She bucked and cried out for release. It ran through her blood stream and boiled her from the inside out. Her Angelic side wanted release from their mortal body, but with Cira Sandra at her side. Desperately trying to help her. She couldn’t do it. So she kept herself in mild control, despite the pain.
“Fuck what do I do?” Cira Sandra cursed. She was a woman of many strengths, medical is not one of them. So she turned to the still sleeping Sister Warrior and threw a shoe to wake her up. “Hey!” She growled as the Sister Warrior started to stir. “Get your ass up and help me!”
“What?” Sister Cara groaned. She opened her eyes and blinked till her vision cleared. She took one sleepy glance at the two and suddenly bolted to her feet. “Oh no what happened?” She asked in a panic. Dropping by Cira’s side.
“She got hit protecting me” Cira spoke. She looked away, chuckled softly as she cursed “bloody idiot”
“Hey now” Sister Cara spoke, grasping Cira’s shoulder. “She’s going to make it”
“I know, but she shouldn’t have done that. She could die right now because of me” Cira Sandra answered. Dropping her head, shaking her head. “Why would she do that?” She whispered confused, turning to the Sister Warrior.
The Sister Warrior smiled sweetly and answered back “to protect you, she likes you”.
Cira blushes, her mouth gasped open for a few moments. She quickly shut her mouth, turned to Hanna and cleared her throat. “You know how to fix her right!” Cira said, more of a statement then a question.
Sister Cara smiled briefly, then turned to Hanna with a grimace. “Not yet” she answered. “I say we start with removing the darts and disinfecting the wound”
And so they did. The girls rolled Hanna onto her side and started plucking the darts out. Each pull made the sick girl jolt with agony.
“Shhh it’s okay stay still” Cira Sandra whispered as she worked.
“You are doing fine Hanna” Sister Cara states. “Just hold on-“
Hanna’s eyes suddenly flashed crimson, her control over the angelic lost. The Angelic took over and lashed out against the women, sending them flying either side of the cave. Sister Cara was knocked out by the collision with the side wall, twisted mid air and fell on her face. Cira Sandra hit the ground on her back with a loud groan.
“fuck” Cira Sandra gasped, rubbing her temple. “What a head rush” she pulled herself up.
Hanna rolled onto her hands and feet. Her stance like a vicious wounded animal. Bent shoulders, teeth bared and snarling madly at the ladies. Legs and arms shaking, desperately trying to keep herself upright. The Angelic took a few deep sniffs, then turned their attention on Sister Cara.
Cira Sandra scoffed offended. “What am I not good enough to eat?” She scoffed.
The Angelic ignored her.
Cira Sandra gaped. “Hey don’t ignore me!”. She scrambled to her feet. She picked up a stone and threw the rock at Hanna yelling “HEY!”
The Hybrid winced, turned and snarled at Cira. She turned around, rolled her shoulders back and out burst her wings from her back. Raised eye and facing Cira.
Cira’s eyes widen shocked. “Oh?”
The wings, with crimson eyes and sharp teeth, snarled angrily.
Cira Sandra sighed, dishearten and she struggled a whispered “Oh”
The Angelic crouched low then suddenly sprinted for Cira. Running sideways up the cave wall and along its axis.
“Oh fuck!” Cira Sandra cursed frantic. Diving forward, rolling under the hybrid’s pounce. Snatching a log from the fire, sliding sideways around the flames. Then twist around to face the Hybrid, who was closing in fast for the kill. Cira gripped her teeth and lashed out, swinging the log left and right. Driving the Angelic back. “Stay back” she ordered. Cautiously placing herself between the Hybrid and the unconscious Sister Warrior.
The Hybrid got the message, staying back. She began to hobble pace back and forth. Looking for an opening.
“Hanna” Cira Sandra called softly. She lowered the flaming log. “You need to snap out of this, take control”
The Hybrid snarled, darting forward only to be driven back by another swing of the burning log.
“Hanna listen to me, take control”
The Hybrid howled, then moved towards Cira again. Only to pause and shake her head with a pained groan. Her eyes shifting back and forth from red to silver.
Cira smiled, Hanna was listening to her, but she needed more help. So Cira did the most stupidest thing she could think of first. She dropped the log back into the fire.
The Hybrid stopped and turned to her with teeth clenched.
Cira Sandra offered her hands out in surrender. “I’m your friend, Cira, come back to me”
The Hybrid growled, she pounce over the flames and tackled her friend. Pinning the woman beneath her, she hated her teeth then prepared to bite.
“Hanna” Cira Sandra called, not afraid of the growling Angelic above her.
The hybrids growls stopped, starring down at her confused.
“It’s okay” she assured with a small smile. “It’s okay, I trust you”
The Hybrid stared at Cira. She didn’t know what to do, the allure to devour the woman was loosing its lust.
Cira Sandra rose her hands and cupped either side of Hanna’s face. “I know it hurts, but I can help, please, let me help you”
The Hybrid nodded with a low whimper. The red eyes melted to Silver and Hanna let out a low gasp once she was back in control. Her eyes widen at Cira and she whimpered “Cira? Oh god..I’m sorry, I’m so sorry I nearly”. Hanna choked as the tears came full force. She collapsed onto Cira and began crying against her chest. “I’m sorry, I’m sorry” she whispered on repeat.
“Shh it’s okay” Cira reassured, caressing Hanna’s unruly hair. “You weren’t going to eat me, which quite frankly is rude. I know for a fact I’m a snack”
Hanna snorted, then she winced from the poison’s sting.
“I know darling, it’s going to be okay” Cira reassured. “Now get off me so I can help you!”
Hanna gulped, she nodded, then slowly pulled herself off Cira. Only to drop sideways beside her. She looked up to Cira and smiled exhausted “thank you for helping me”
“Of course” Cira said. “You saved me first”
Hanna smiled, then dropped off into dreamless sleep.
Cira sniffled, wiping the tears from her eyes before they could spill. She took a deep breath and let it out slower through gritted teeth. “what am I going to do with you” she whispered, too heart broken for her liking. She quickly pushed her new knowledge back into the far reaches of her mind and continued on helping Hanna.
Hoping she was doing the right thing.
It wasn't long before Sister Cara came to and together they worked on curing Hanna.
However, their efforts were soon dashed when Hanna's body suddenly stilled and her heart beats abrutely stopped. In this moment, Sister Cara raced into action, performing CPR on her niece while Cira Sandra sensed the angelic Gemini closing in.
"Come on get up!" Cira ordered through gritted teeth. Forcing her gaze outside, with Hanna's sword held grasp in her hands. "Anything?"
"Nothing"
"work harder"
"Believe me, I am" Sister Cara stated.
Gemini's pained howls tore through the cave, along with the growing sounds of swords clashing. Cira Sandra frowned, confused who is out there fighting the General. Her questions were soon answered when Ava ran inside the cave's entrance. Her eyes blazing white and covered in angelic blood. "Finally, we're been looking for you three" she stated joyfully, but her excitement died in her throat at the sight of her dying daughter. "what happened?"
"She's been poisoned" Cira Sandra answered. "By Gemini"
Ava gulped, the light dimmed in her eyes only for a moment. Before they returned with twice the fire. "Don't worry, she'll be fine"
As Ava moved to her daughter's aid. Her wife was thrown into the cave, skidding along the floor. Ava only a moment to drag her wife to her feet as Gemini crawled into the room. Ava growled, then charged forward with Beatrice hot on her tail. Together they fought the Angelic as one, driving the General further out of the cave. When she saw her opportunity. Ava dodged a wild swing, slid back and pulled out the Halo. As the power of the Halo started to call forth, Gemini lashed out, knocking Ava body crashing into stone with a skull breaking crack. Her body slumped along the smooth stone, dragging a trial of blood in her wake. The Halo's attention diverted from its prey, to fixing it's owner.
Beatrice let out a war cry, using all her strength to slice the General down. Soon she too, was thrown deeper into the cave. Colliding with the roof first before her body twirled and hit the floor on her back.
Cira Sandra growled, she tossed her sunglasses aside and rushed the General.
Sister Cara soon stopped the CPR, pulling away to only place two fingers on Hanna's neck. She gasped when she couldn't find a pulse. "Oh no please" she prayed. She turned to Ava, finding the woman starting to stir and frantically called out to her leader. "AVA! HELP SHE NEEDS YOU!"
Ava, still half dazed, crawled along the cave floor to the pair. "Hanna? Sister Cara?"
Sister Cara shuddered. "I'm sorry" she cried. "If you can save her?..." she trailed off.
Ava nodded. "I can" she stated determined.
Before Ava could summon her power to heal her daughter. An invisible gold light appeared out of nowhere, pressing a hand against and Lou Lou's voice whispered in Hanna's ear "wake up". Suddenly Hanna's eyes burst open and she let out a high gasp. Her heart thumping in her chest, her body renewed with strength. Gemini's poison burned from her being.
Cira Sandra jolted at the sound of Hanna's gasp. It was enough distraction for her to miss an arm fly across the space and hit Cira square in the chest. Sending the woman backwards, crashing into a wall.
Hanna jolted upright. Her eyes widen at the sight of Cira hitting her back against the wall and slumped forward. She turned to Gemini and growled. "I got this" Hanna declared.
"Hanna wait-" Ava begged, reaching out for her daughter.
Hanna dodged her mother's grasp, standing to her feet. She glared darkly at Gemini, then sprinted forward. She threw herself forward last moment and her skin burst, her angelic side shot forward and tackled Gemini. The pair flew through the air. Crashing through trees, heading for the ground. Gemini landed on her back while Hanna landed on the tip of her feathers. She darted forward, tackling Gemini and forcing them through another tree. Splitting the tree in half and crashing by their side. Hanna tore Gemini apart, throwing the General up and around the forest. Stripping the Gemini down to her torso.
Ava sprinted out of the cave following after her daughter.
Gemini and Hanna's angelic bodies crashed. Their movements blurred as they danced around the forest, Hanna overcoming the General, by her powers and her strength. Soon Hanna noticed her mother rushing to them, with Halo in hand. Hanna rushed forward, then burst into two clouds of feathers. Grasping Gemini's arms and pulled in two directions. Pinning the General in two places.
Ava stopped short of the two angelic beings, surveying the situation before she lifted her Halo and raised it to the General.
The Angelic General turned to her and snarled "Others will follow, you will not get away with this"
"Then they will suffer with you" Ava stated. She activated the Halo's powers and the last of Gemini's soul was devoured. Ava didn't drop the Halo until the last of their screams faded in the air. She turned to her daughter, beaming proudly with scared eyes. "Hanna"
"Mum?" Hanna replied. She floated back together, then dove for her mother. Hugging the woman tight.
Ava grinned in the feathery arms of her Hybrid daughter. "hey sweetpea, are you okay?"
"I'm okay" she answered. The Angelic pulled away. "thank you for resurrecting me"
Ava frowned confused. "that wasn't me"
"oh"
"Let's get you and your friend back to the Cradle" under Ava's guidance, she walked her daughter back to the Cave, to rejoin the others.
