The weeks following Sydney and Jackson's death gabriel and Michael searched every corner of heaven for them. They were hoping Jackson was sent to hell for how he treated his wife and kid, if not they would send him there themselves. No matter how much they searched they couldn't find either of them. Gabriel being the stubborn person he is, didnt give up searching. Night and day, rain and sun, he kept searching. He asked around to see if people had seen her, but it was like she didnt exist. Nobody knew her or where she was. Gabriel had officially lost all hope. The love of his life was no where to be found. The most he could do was watch over drax. He may not be able to intervene but he can at least watch from a distance. He found drax with his aunt. She was deathly ill and didnt have much time left. She died a month after Sydney and jackson. Drax was forced onto the streets. Gabriel knew what was in drax's future but couldnt alter it. For the next 12 years gabriel watched drax struggle for survival onnthe streets of London. Watching hurtx he wished he could help. Then. In march 17th 1765 drax shot himself in the head with a stolen hand gun. As he lay dying Gabriel picked him up amd held him. He only cried after drax took his final breath. At least this time he knew where drax would be. If he couldnt find sydney at least he could protect her son. He buried drax's body under the oak tree where gabriel drax and Sydney would have picnics, tell stories, and play games. Gabriel missed those days with all of his heart. He knew it would never be the same, but at least the memories will remain untouched. After Drax was buried Gabriel made his way to the reaper realm. He found the clinic then entered the arrival wing. He found drax laying in a bad, his head bandaged. He sat next to his bed and waited. And waited. And waited. When drax finally awoke it was almost dawn, but gabriel was still there waiting. As soon as drax sat up gabriel hugged him. Drax slowly hugged back.

"Gadreel? What are you doing here? Where am I?" He asked. Gabriel pulled away and smiled

"The reaper realm, and my Name isnt actually Gadreel. Its Gabriel"

"Gabriel? Reaper realm? Reaper as in the grim reaper?" Drax asked. Gabriel nodded.

"You are a grim reaper. Souls who went before their scheduled time are put into limbo. You are between life and death."

"Odd... Why did you lie about your name?"

Gabriel gently bit his lip as he thought of a way to explain.

"So you wouldnt figure out who i really am" he said. Drax tilted his head a bit. Gabriel did his best to explain what he is. Drax pretended to understand.


"Is mother safe? Is she here?" He asked. Gabriel's smile faded. He looked down

"I dont know where she is. I've been looking nonstop for years, but there's no sign of her"

"Did you check basements? Father locked her in the basement when he didnt want her to be seen." He said. Gabriel nodded

"I checked everwhere. I'm sorry drax. I cant find your mother"

Drax looked down. Gabriel hugged him once again and showed him around. As months turn into years Gabriel never stopped searching. He lost hope a long time ago, but still looked. A century passes, its August 25th 1965, gabriel was helping a lost child find her mother when a woman tapped him. When he turned to look at her he froze. There before him stood a beautiful woman with long anow white hair. After all these years, he didnt find Sydney, Sydney found him.
