"What happened to Y/N?!" A voice said in panic from behind them as she began to drift off into sleep. Turning quickly, they all faced the door, where Felix was standing. Bang Chan quickly rushed over to him, grabbing him by the shoulders and turning him from side to side as he frantically asked,

"Felix! Are you okay? Are you hurt? What did they do to you?" He grabbed his jaw, turning his head to the side, examining for cuts, when Felix pushed him off, rubbing his arms as if he'd been contaminated or something.

"I-I'm fine." He said. "It's fine." Chan still looked concerned, raising an eyebrow.

"What happened? Did they take you? Did you run?"

"They, uh," he swallowed nervously. "They got me while I was trying to bind them up and dragged me through a gate. I managed to escape, though, and I came back here, because I figured it was safest." He shrugged.

"How did you beat them? It was two to one?" Changbin asked.

"And how did they open a gate themselves? They should have been weak from the fight." Minho added on.

"Maybe he was able to beat them both because they were weak from opening the gate too." Bang Chan supplied, looking to him. "Not to mention he's a warrior angel."

"Y-yeah, that's it." Felix said with a nod. That was a close call... Good thing Chan was too adept at solving problems for his own good. "But I'm a guardian angel now."

"Actually, we have good news!" Chan continued, gesturing to Hyunjin and Y/N's bodies on the bed. "We separated their souls, and healed them, although Hyunjin was a little bit harder. With any luck they'll both be good as new after a peaceful night! We can get back to normal!" Felix's nose scrunched up against his own will, but thankfully nobody saw it.

"Well, not quite." He cut in. He had to upkeep his end of the deal with Seungmin and Jeongin, not to mention get his place back as Y/N's guardian angel. "We still have to find the fallen angels."

"Do we, though?" Changbin asked thoughtfully. "As long as we keep them from getting a hold on another angel, they're none of our business. They'll die off on their own down here." Shit... he had to find a way to convince them that they needed to find the men, and in three days exactly, no less.

"If they were able to nab an angel once, they'll be able to do it again." He pointed out. "And now that they have more experience and intelligence, it'll take them less time to do what they're planning. As long as they leave us alone, we may not realize anything's happened until it's too late."

"He has a point." Minho agreed, relieving him slightly. "We need to make sure this doesn't happen again."

"First Y/N needs to rest, though." Felix said adamantly.

"And Hyunjin." Bang Chan added on.

"Yeah, right..." He said coughing. "Anyway, I'll work on trying to find them, since I was with them last. We'll get ready to go in a few days." He said. Chan looked over at him again in surprise. He wasn't generally one to make the plans, he was more of a follower. Still, there was nothing inherently wrong with it. If Felix wanted to go out of his comfort zone a little bit, who were they to stop him?

Y/N was obviously the first to wake up the next morning, surrounded by muttering angels. Surprisingly, Jisung hadn't left, although his work was technically done. She just barely recalled the whole process, as well as him confirming that the process of splitting their should had worked. Looking to her side, she also saw Hyunjin, her real guardian angel. She had never really talked to him. What was he like? Was he okay? Had they managed to heal him?

"Oh, Y/N, you're up." Chan said, walking over to the bed, sitting on the very edge as he tried not to disturb her position. She sat fully up to make sure he had enough room, causing him to give her a quick glance of gratitude. "How are you?"

"I'm fine." She said. "You still have some explaining to do." His gaze fell. He knew that he couldn't expect her to forget forever, but he'd at least wondered if the injuries wouldn't stall her. It wasn't something he liked to remember. In fact, it would take all of his effort to even both recounting it. A light touch on his shoulder snapped him out of his quickly whirlpooling thoughts.

"Are you... alright?" She asked, eyebrows furrowing as she watched him panic. Looking at the warmth of her gaze, she slight shaking of her body occasionally as she shifted in bed- he sighed in defeat. He wouldn't be able to writhe his way out of this.

"Hyunjin. You weren't his first project as a guardian angel." He laughed a little. "I mean, I'm sure that's obvious, you've seen how a first-time guardian angel acts sometimes."

"Okay... what does that have to do with Seungmin and Jeongin?"

"Well, some angels watch more than one person, although it's difficult. Regardless, the only time when an angel gets a replacement human counterpart is when their previous one, well..."

"Dies?"

"Yes." He nodded. "Before he was assigned to you, Hyunjin's counterpart died."

"I'm... sorry to hear that." She said, wanting to be respectful, but also not exactly sure where he was going with this little tangent.

"No one knows exactly how they died, but it was clear that it was a... supernatural event."

"They were murdered by an angel." Minho said from behind them, clearly listening in. Changbin put a hand on his shoulder, as if to warn him to keep quiet and stay out of the conversation. Bang Chan winced at the comment.

"I'm not familiar with the actual case, but Seungmin was convicted of the act. Jeongin was friends with him at the time, and insisted that he was innocent. He demanded to be thrown out of heaven as well, as was Seungmin's punishment. Still, to this day, he stays by his side religiously."

"So... did he do it?" She asked. Bang Chan looked up.

"Huh?"

"Did Seungmin kill that person? And if he did, why?" Chan looked to the side, stuttering.

"I- well, I- um-"

"It's unknown." Changbin answered for him. "We're sorry."

"Oh..." She said, a bit disappointed. It was always a struggle for her to figure out who to trust. Even now, she felt as if they were hiding something from her. "Um, where's Felix?" she asked, just noticing that he wasn't in the room with the rest of the angels.

"He's handling the tracking of Seungmin and Jeongin." Bang Chan said. "They're dangerous."

"I thought you just said you didn't know if they were dangerous?"

"They kidnapped Hyunjin, you saw what they did to him." Minho argued. "That's dangerous enough."

"We move out as soon as we find them." Bang Chan said with an air of finality. "Then this nonsense will finally be done."
