A few days later all of the former generals that had fallen: Jacob,Christoff, Paul, Taliah, Irine, Leah, Erica, and I were all standing in the same crossroad I was when I spoke to Leah.

"I've asked you all here because Josiah, Jade, and Alexandria-the main players on this- are plotting something. You all know it's not a crime to save your soul mate from death if it isn't their time to die. I had found mine, he had tried to commite suicide, I saved him. One place I messed up was giving him my blood and showing him my ethereal body.
    They had put me on trial, and then cast me into Damnation. Well a few days ago I was tortured by the Archangels, even though I had already gotten rid of my wings. My theory is this:they want to get rid of all the good Angels and corrupt heaven, it's the Angelic War all over again.''

Their expressions went from curiosity to anger in the matter of my story.

"It's impossible for heaven to become corrupt." Jacob tells me, it's been so long since he became a fallen, he can't remember what it's like.

"It's possible, why do you think that all the angels went from pure white wings to other shades of grey,black and red? It's been happening for centuries."

"What do you plan on doing? Only Erica can go back to heaven. All of us have lost our Angel and our grace. None of us have the wings only scars." One said as they all nodded.

"My wings are a very pale pink, almost white. I'm not corrupted, but when I first became and Angel I had pure-" Erica gets cut off by a roaring in our ears and a blinding light shooting through the sky. Another Angel has been cast out of heaven, without looking at the others I took off towards where the light had landed.

Once I arrived, I saw a male figure climbing out of the crater, his dark grey wings singed all the way across his back.

"Did you fall facing the portal or facing the council?" I ask and he turns around quickly.

"Rain." James sighs and bows his head." I fell with my back facing Earth. My wings are burnt, it hurts, so does my heart." He says as the others run up beside me.

"Come with us, you'll be safe to rest and get rid of your wings." I say as I walk over to him and he puts and arm around my shoulders to lean against me as we walk back towards the tent I had been staying in.

We got James settled and resting, then got back to the previous conversation.

"Now, still only she can get into heaven, three of us are lowly demons, ones a greater demon, and ones nephillium. What are we gonna be able to do?"

I sigh and rub my temples.

"We can still fordge angelic weapons. Did you forget about the Chorus Demonium
that is all around us? We can make our own blades and arrows and everything. Then we can figure out where the power source to the portal is. It leads both ways, the portal is somewhere with a lot of untamed power."

They all nod in agreement and dissapear, all except Leah and Erica.

"Why do you care what happens to heaven now? You were cast out." Erica asked me as she sat beside me on the ground.

"I know I was cast out, I know that I met my soul mate and he helped me. I know I left him, but I'm doing this for all of us. Erica, your wings are practically white, all those are going to be thrown out. If we fix this then all of those who were cast out,that had white wings and no real reason to have been cast out, could be given another chance."

"Your doing it to save your own race of angels."

"No. I'm saving all angels from the corruption." I explained heatedly and she rolls her eyes before dissapearing.
