When I woke the next morning I woke to an empty bed Michael was already up. I made my way downstairs, Michael and ms mead were suited and booted.
"Good morning lena." Mead greets.
"Lena were going to see Mutt and Jeff, I don't want you coming after what they said yesterday understood? And hopefully by the time I'm back we will have our plan." He says scoffing down the last mouthful of pancake.

I stand in silence "go on you two I'll clear up and we will leave in 5 minutes My boy." She says taking his plate.

Michael approaches me taking my by the shoulder guiding me into the corridor.
"Lena, it's likely when I come back the end times will be even nearer A plan will be in place ." His eyes were lit up with his excitement and grin. "I want you to stay here okay, and Lena whatever happens you will always be by my side I want you to know that. I... I really I-"
I was desperate to hear it desperate to here those ducking beautiful words.

"I-I'll be back soon okay." He says pecking my cheek walking back to mead. What a let down... I drag myself up to my room to shower and change.

"Bye lena." They both shout before the door slams shut. Okay this was my chance I have to warn the coven I'm not letting them get hurt. I get changed and washed in a rush before calling up my self a taxi.

When it arrives I run out. "Airport please" the cab driver nods and with that I was on my way.

^^^^

That flight from California to New Orleans will never not be tedious.
My hand was literally trembling as I knock on the door of Robichauxs.
The door opens a little revealing a confused coco.
"Corelena?... um come in?" She says.
I smile thanking her. The coven hadn't changed I had to admit it still felt like home.

"Thanks coco where's Cordelia?"
"Where she always is." She says. Hm okay I guess everyone hates me. Blunt much?

I ran to Cordelias office not even bothering to knock.
As soon as I open the door she shoots up from her chair. "Lena?!"
"Cordelia I don't have much time but Michael is going to destroy the world and hurt the coven I can't stop him delia and I can't bare the thought of harm coming your way."

She paces around her desk. "Didn't seem to stop you from siding with the antichrist don't you think that was painful enough."
"Delia please! Just listen to me."
"I know lena I could feel it coming." She getss closer to me and I stare at her puzzled intrigued by what she was doing.

"I'm sorry lena I have to do this." As soon as she began chanting I was out like a light.

^^^^^^^^

"Michael!" I woke up gasping in the family candle lit room around me but not mine. I was back in the bunker I wipe my eyes sitting up and to the left of me there sat my Michael. His long golden locks falling over his face in his sleep. This time when I awoke all I wanted to do was jump to Michael and wrap my arms around him. He was the one, the one who had only ever cared like that for, the one who would protect me at any time. But what happened after I went to warn Cordelia?!

I got out of bed and the noise of my movement caused Michael to stir and begin to wake. He noticed my small smile and tears as soon as he saw me. I sat off the bed and he stood up from the chair. I jumped wrapping my arms around his neck digging my face in my chest as he held me tightly.

"Is it you lena? Your back?"
"I'm here Michael and like I said before I'm not going anywhere." We break apart and he stares at me with a smile but also a single tear falling from his sparkling eyes.

"Michael what happened after I went to warn Cordelia?!" I ask with worry in my tone.
His smile fades a little sitting back down as I sit on the bed facing him.

"She quite literally killed you off. Rid you of your memory, and put you into a coma a spell that was impossible for me to find to break. She hid you deep in a vacant van in a woods deep in New Orleans. I felt your aura inside me disappearing know something awful had happened it took me three years to get the apocalypse ready and find you altogether. But I did it, there was no carrying on without you my angel."

Wow... "a-and the coven? The witches Cordelia?"
"Dead, but cordelia and her little trio are still lurking around somewhere."

I look down playing with my fingers in my lap.
"I'm sorry about the way I treated you last time you were right. You are the only one." I didn't have to say much I knew  what I meant.

"You are my special person lena. The only one."
"And ms mead! She's alive!" I exclaim.
Michael starts to smile with his eyes lit up
"Indeed she is, you know I wouldn't let her go again. It won't be long til we see her lena."
He gets up from his chair kneeling in front of me his eyes in direct line with mine.

"I have you back and I'm never letting you go." He grabs my cheeks pulling my lips to connect with his. Our lips salty from the tears coming from the both of us. Tears of joy and love. It was short and sweet yet it meant so much I was back.

He tested away still cupping my cheeks.
"Lena I didn't think I was capable of love since I've  been abandoned my whole life, but I know you were the same. And this is why I have this deep love and care for you. Corelena I love you."
