Etheriel

I have no clue what is going through Trinity's head. The angel side of her should feel the need to stay far away from Dominic... What is she doing kissing him?

Dominic opens a passage disappearing from beside my car. He said he was going to check to make sure she was okay. The image of turning into an aisle at the store and seeing Dominic and Trinity, making out, surfaces and I feel a stab to my heart as I tightly grip the steering wheel, waiting for Dominic to come back. I sense another passage open from within the house and when Dominic doesn't exit near me, I slam my fist against the steering wheel, knowing that he probably took her to Hell. I start my car and quickly drive to Nathan's apartment. When I walk in, Nathan is sitting on the floor surrounded by big old books. After Dominic told us that Mihael was poisoning Trinity, he gave Nathan a list of ingredients and told him to make a list of everything you can do with those ingredients so night and day Nathan's been slowly scanning old books for stuff that may involve those ingredients.

He looks up at me for a brief second before looking back down at a book written in Latin.

"Where's the Demon?" Nathan mumbles and carefully flips a page.

"In Hell, no doubtfully with Trinity." I grumble and look at the blank list beside Nathan. He instantly looks at me.

"Trinity is with him?!" I wonder if I should add what I saw at the store or not. I nod and lay back on the couch, closing my eyes, thinking about how to say it.

"And their intimate..." I whisper and open my eyes to see the gears turning in his head.

"Intimate?" he whispers harshly, probably not believing it. I nod and shut my eyes again, not wanting to see the possibly pity lurking in his eyes.

"Did you find anything?" I change the subject and he is silent for a couple seconds.

"Nope."

"How many books left to go through?" I ask and look at him.

"Uhh..." he looks at the books surrounding him. "About five more then I need to go and find more of them... Do you think Mihael has any?" He stops flipping through pages and looks back at me. "Mihael, one of the angels that fell before any of you, he could have some old books I've never heard of..." Nathan rubs his face and lets out a loud sigh. If he has the only book with whatever he is planning in it, we may not find it so easily. No doubt if he does have it, he has it locked away and hidden so no one can find it. My hair stands on end as I sense a passage opening and Nathan senses it too, standing immediately. Right away, someone starts knocking loudly on the door. Nathan cautiously walks to the door and opens the door a little before sighing and opening the door all the way.

"Come in." he says agitated and Dominic walks in, looking very pale and like he just watched someone die. I stand up and watch him closely. What happened?

"Did you find anything yet?" He asks, looking back at Nathan anxiously.

"No, there are tons of books scattered about from centuries ago. It might be in a book I don't have access to." Dominic nods and starts walking back toward the door.

"Dominic." He stops and looks back at me, waiting. "What happened? Did something happen to Trinity?" I pause as he stares at me. "Where is she?"

"At my place, sleeping. She said she started to hear this loud ringing and then blood started coming from her ears and she suddenly got weak. I have no clue what's happening or if it's life threatening to her."

Trinity

I wake up, once again in Dominic's dark room. I slowly put my bare feet onto the cold ground and stand, instantly having to lean against wall. It takes me a while before I finally reach the door and make it to the dim living room. The place is dead silent and all the lights are out, only candles barely burning. Where did he go?
