I forgot to mention this but all Angels and Devils were reborn. Avril still remembers about the Rebirther.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

~Avril~

I don't know if you could say that me and Claire were friends, but we were definitely getting along. We were talking about random things after Hunter had left. She was grateful that I had helped her.

"I wish they would let us take a shower, or at least let us wear a change of clothes!" I groaned. I had been wearing the same blood stained clothes since yesterday and I feel very dirty.

"I know!" Claire agreed. "We probably smell really bad right now." She sniffed her arm. "I smell ok, what about you?"

I sniffed myself and scrunched my nose playfully. We both laughed. I never knew I could get along with an Angel so well.

"I'm sorry," I said. She looked at me confused.

"Are you apologizing for smelling bad?" She asked playfully.

She saw that I looked serious and knew that I was talking about her brother. She shook her head, a small yet sad smile on her face. The same smile that she had when she told me that she forgave me.

"I told you, it's okay now," she said. Her words were so easy to believe and I believe her. Then I remembered the time that I attacked her.

She had said that the only reason that she fought was so she could find the Devil that killed her brother.

Does that mean she never had an urge to just kill a Devil? I've always had an urge to kill an Angel the moment I know that they are near.

All of the Devils that I knew had the same urge like me. Maybe Angels are different and never wanted a fight in the first place.

"Was it true, the only reason you fought Devils was so that your could avenge your brother?" I questioned. She nodded.

"So, you never had an urge to just kill a Devil?" She shook her head, she looked confused.

"Then why do you Angels kill Devils?" I asked, this was starting to confuse me.

"We never wanted to fight with you Devils. You're the ones who started the attack. They say that one day the Devils attacked the Angels. The Angels thought Devils were a threat and they fought back," Claire replied. Why does she know so much?

"I was always interested in the Angel and Devil history, so I read a lot of books," she said, it felt like she could read my mind. 

"Wait, didn't a Rebirther tell you that you have to kill Devils if you want to live?" I asked her, maybe a Rebirther told her something. She looked at me confused.

"What's a Rebirther?" She questioned. What? She doesn't know what a Rebirther is?

"Weren't you reborn? Like before you were an Angel, you were a human and had a bad life, then a Rebirther gave you another chance to live, but as an Angel," I replied. Claire looked lost. She had a look that said she was extremely confused.

"I have read almost all Angel and Devil books, but I have never heard of a Rebirther," she muttered. She was now deep in thought, like she was trying to remember a book she read that had any information about a Rebirther.

~~~

It was night time and Claire was still thinking. I was boredly laying on the ground. How can she not know about Rebirthers? If she didn't know about them are there other people that don't either? I have to ask some of my friends if they know anything about Rebirthers.

I was starting to get tired. My eyelids started getting heavier. I could tell Claire was still in her own little world, trying to remember anything she read about Rebirthers. I slowly closed my eyes and sleep engulfed me.

I saw a dream forming in front of my eyes. My surroundings became black and white checkered walls. Somehow it felt like I've been here before but it felt like the surroundings had changed.

I saw a figure start to form in front of me. It was a man. He was wearing a white collared shirt with a blood red tie. Pants, cape, and blazer that were both black. He had black hair. At first I didn't know who this person was, I couldn't recognize him. Either he looked a lot different than the last time I had encountered him, or I didn't know him.

But then I remembered when he opened his eyes. I looked in his eyes. His blood red eyes.

Chester.

"Hello there, Avril," he smirked, sending chills down my spine. Why is he here?
