Ramshackle's Angel

98

While Sera tried to help Xander calm down, Lorelai, Stone, Lizzy, Zane, and their daughter Coraline. She was asleep in Zane's arms as they all sat on the sofas in the main room. Lorelai kept glancing at the little girl every now and then. She knew she sensed that she was different when she helped babysit her and her friends but...how? Well, she and Stone were about to get the answers.

"It all started when me and Lizzy were still just boyfriend and girlfriend, we had just started the house of the hearts" Zane started.

"It was just me, Zane, Talia, Lilith, Kai, and Hero" Lizzy added.

Lorelai and Stone shared a confused look. They had no idea who Talia, Kai, and Hero were.

"Who's Talia, Kai, and Hero?" Stone asked, wanting to know that before continuing.

"They're also known as Echo, Arachnid, and Wanderer" Zane cleared up.

"Ohhh" the young couple said, allowing that to settle in their minds.

"Anyways, but things changed on that stormy night" Lizzy said.

Then they went on to explain that they found Coraline swattled up in a blanket outside of the door. So they brought her in and had multiple agreements/disagreements on if they should keep her or not. Eventually, they came to the decision to keep her and to raise her as their own. When they finished, Lorelai was crying as Stone patted her back.

"That still doesn't explain how she's a angel" Stone pointed out, still comforting his crying girlfriend and looking at the small child.

"Well, it was when we where attacked when we realized it" Lizzy told him as she looked at the swirling on her angelic dagger.

She then stabbed it into the table to get Lorelai's attention and to make her stop crying.

"Hehe....sorry" she apologized as she wiped away the remaining tears in her eyes.

"Anyways, after I got that miracle, I rushed off to fine my family until Hero yelled something once he spotted me. And well, knowing that he's kinda stupid, I think I can say it was a shocker for all of us."

🖤Night of the attack🖤

It was after Lizzy left the demon and went off to find her family when Wanderer spotted her.

"Mother! It's Coraline! There's something wrong with her! I think she's sick!" He yelled.

This shocked her as she rushed over to them. And that's when she saw it. Coraline glowing a heavenly light as she now had a small halo and wings.

"My baby!!?!?"

And at that moment, Zane fainted.

🖤Present day🖤

T

his made the couple awkwardly silent. They had no idea what to say to that. But after a moment, Stone spoke up.

"That's....weirdly anti-climactic" he said, earning a nod of agreement from his girlfriend.

"We know" both Lizzy and Zane said in unison, annoyed but not in the mood to care at the time.

Nodding, Lorelai brushed back her hair. Well, that cleared a few things up.

"Right. Well, that's somewhat one problem solved. Now we need to deal with the Major and stop-"

Lizzy's eyes widened.

"I'm sorry. Did I just get the fact that you messed with the Major?!" She asked her, going into a state of panic.

"Uhhh yes?...."

Lorelai felt like she did something wrong. And you know what?

Oh fucking yes she did.

"Oh fuck. WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME SOONER!!?!?!" Lizzy yelled.

From how loud she gotten, and the grim tone of her voice, this made Lorelai jump into Stone's arms like she was scooby doo. Zane sighed as he rubbed the temple of his head.

"Well, we're all fucked."
