"OMEGA! GET YOU ASS OVER HERE!"
Sargent had always been a hard ass, probably even before any of this even started. It was worse during training. I felt bad for him though, old and useless anymore. His vessel was wearing out, anyone with a brain could see that, it used to be a military man. Though I could never place what his ranking used to be, the vessel looked about 50-60, I mean it's hard to tell how people age.

"Yes, sir." I mumbled and marched over to him. "What do you need." He gave me a blank stare, I sighed. "Sir."
"Omega, you know what you have to do, right? You can't mess this up, this is our one chance. If you can get into The Garden of Eden and lower its defense you can lead more of our soldiers in. If we can take Eden we can advance to the next step." He sounded pretty serious, this was a big step for us. Eden was Heaven territory, like in Heaven.

"Are you sure about this, sir?" I wasn't sure about this, that's for damn sure.
"Listen Omega, The big man in the sky wanted the angels to love humanity more then him, right?" A smirk formed on his vessel's face. "Right, but how does that affect the angels or the big man in the sky?" He looked at me like I was an idiot. "What would be a be bigger then win for us then to take over the place where the first two humans first walked." A smirk creeped over my face. "That's genius!" I was surprised to hear about the plan, after all, i was the one who suggested it, but as a joke. I never thought it would put into action.

"Don't act like you don't know who made this plan." He looked at me, expecting me to answer as if I didn't know he knew it was my plan. "Well, I was just going to keep it anonymous, but Veronica must have mentioned my name." I smiled. "Oh, wait, I meant Ronnie."

Sargent smiled , "You've grown, Omega. But I need you to think on this mission, you cant blow your cover. You're the only one who doesn't have a vessel. You have a body, and by Lucifer's name i'll never know how you got out of the Labyrinth, but you have a talent."

I raised my eye brows and smiled, "Oh? And what would that be Sargent."

"You're a natural warrior, Omega." He signed, "Your a sly one, Omega, your smart. Even if you hardly use your brain. You're going to do great things for your people here. You were made to fit the mold, no one else can do what you do. Not as well, at least. I'll see you at 8-0 hundred, Omega. "He chuckled.

He was usually a hard ass, but did have a soft spot for me, most people did. Probably because I didn't look like a demon, like most. I had traveled to the last layer of Hell; The Labyrinth. It's like a giant maze, it's the worst part of Hell. Angels, Demons, Shadow People, anything IT can get it's hands on. IT was said to be Lucifer, others say it's just a Prince of Darkness. Anyway, that's apparently where i was created, the perfect warrior. All that shit, but with one fatal flaw; I was created with horns, bulky wings, and claws. Ya' know the whole nine yards. See I wasn't to fond of that, I liked to visit Earth. And the whole "demon" thing didn't make me look as friendly as i had wanted.

So, naturally I looked for people who could help me. I found Veronica, she knew quite a bit, she told me about the Labyrinth and how if you got past all if it, you'd get to have anything your heart desired. At first I didn't believe it because it was like a prison. On the first level, like I said it's like a maze, so many creatures were down there, more angels then I have ever thought. I went down there, the memories I have from it could make a man go insane, but i'm not a man, I don't think I ever was, and that's what scares people, demons and angels alike.

I left the room, the smell of smoke filled my nose. Everyone was celebrating a great victory, we won a battle with a few dozen angels. "THE WINGED BEASTS HAVE FALLEN! HAHA!" Ronnie jumped on my back, laughing. I grabbed her leg so she wouldn't fall and fist bumped the air, howling.
