The trio flashed into Azazel's cavern.

"Man, I hate that throne thing," Angel said glancing over at Azazel's hideous chair. "Oh, hey where's Dustyn and Carter?"

"We can't find them," Azazel said, stepping from the shadows. "I spoke with Arakiel and he said his slaves saw a demon with long hair wandering around the neighborhood where Dustyn's parents lived."

"That would make sense since Angel and I both transported to our families' homes," Danny said.

"This sound like our Father's work," Michael interjected.

"Well, I never told you guys, but you know that ambulance back at the hospital?" Danny asked.

"Yes," Azazel said. "What about it?"

"I didn't crank it or drive it. It did it by itself. I couldn't get it started."

Michael tilted his head. "That is interesting."

"So, what happened to Dustyn?" Angel asked.

"No one knows for sure," Azazel responded. "But, I have an idea. As far as Carter is concerned, I don't know and this is worrisome."

"What is your name...ummm, ma'am?"

The Watcher sighed. "My name is Bezaliel."

"You can work with us, Bezaliel, like Azazel and...um, occasionally, Gadreel," Dustyn said, attempting to sway the creature. "We can work together and take down Holok and then you can get your wings back," he said nervously, watching the grotesque female lift his shirt, expose his muscular torso, and rub her hand over the mark on his solar plexus.

"The Myriads do not work with Heaven, we want to take it down! Your master, Azazel is a traitor to the Watchers and will have to die, just like you...eventually."

"The Myriads?"

"The true followers of Samael..."
