3rd Person POV

Everyone at the Hotel sets up as much as they can for the attack. They create a plan to diverge a whole onslaught on them so they can have a chance to fight back.

Overall, the plan is for Alastor to create a barrier to keep Adam out. Angel Dust, Sir Pentious, Alastor, Husk, Vaggie, some egg bois, Octavia, Arackniss, Cherri, Niffty, and finally Charlie gather around a table to discuss their strategy.

They all contribute ideas and select the ones that work best for their needs.

Husk attempted to contact Vox and Velvette to see if they were joining, but neither picked up their phones. He found this odd but didn't worry too much about it; they were likely preparing for the attack themselves.

Angel, still feeling worried, approaches Charlie. "Are you sure this will work? I have a bad feeling about this."

Charlie smiles encouragingly. "We all feel uneasy, but we're as prepared as we can be. We have to be ready for anything." Angel frowns, and Charlie places a hand on his shoulder. "It's alright."

Charlie pulls Angel into a hug, and Angel lets out a sigh.

"Hey, everyone! They're coming!" Vaggie shouted from outside.

Angel and Charlie exchanged one last squeeze before Charlie grabbed her shield and headed out, with Angel following closely behind.

They stepped outside just in time to see the exorcists descending from above.

"Hell yeah!"

"Let's kill these assholes!" Octavia screams.

As soon as they get close to the ground, Cherri Bomb throws a bomb in the air at an exorcist, fully starting the attack vs. defending.

Angel, Arackniss, Octavia, and Cherri fall back into a group, working together like old times. Angel and Arackniss boost Cherri up into the air to throw bombs at Angels while the other two shoot and kill foes surrounding them, "Eat shrapnel, fuckers!"

Octavia softens Cherri's fall and uses her tentacles to throw out bombs at lightning speed.

Angel pulls out guns, shooting everyone in his path.

Husk worries about Alastor going to fight Adam himself but lets it go... even though he wants the final blow on him.

He grabs a fleeing angel and smashes it into another exorcist. Using his wings, he flies up and away and uses his umbrella to fend off more exorcists.

"These fucking angels won't stop coming!" He growls in annoyance.

He hears Angel laugh behind him.

"Haha!"

He looks back to see the demon shaking his ass before rolling his eyes. "Okay, I walked into that one."

"Hold that thought," Angel says and Husk turns around to see him jump after an angel and defend an egg boi from an angel.

Suddenly, Sir Pentious screeches an army cry and Husk plasters his ears against his head, back-arming an angel.

"Yelling while fighting does not help." He grunts as the angel hits his stomach with an elbow, knocking the air out of him.

All of the demons then hear a crack from above and they all look up to see Alastor's shield breaking.

"Shit." Husk mumbles, slicing through another exorcist with guilt and disgust as he realizes he's killing his own kind... technically.
