Twilight Feathers

Act 7

On media: All-knowing Spirit

[Gabriel and Lucas were hiding behind the bush, watching Greed and Damian dragging a Spirit.]

Lucas: Tell me again why I'm helping you, little angel. I never imagined I, the right hand of Lucifer, would ever hide from my fellow demons.

Gabriel: You're under my kiss.

Lucas: You mean that archangel's kiss?

Gabriel: Fancy title, isn't it? [She giggles]

Lucas: You forgot to explain what that is, you know.

Gabriel: My kiss would put you under my orders, Lucas. Even if you want to kill me, you cannot. I told you before to help me. To care for me and protect me. And you will be doing exactly that.

Lucas: Damn kiss.

[They are silenced once the spirit yelled.]

Spirit: Let go! Let go of me!

Greed: She's such a bother. Why do we need her again?

Damian: She can tell us where Lucas is. Damn devil going missing for days.

Spirit: [She forcedly took her wrists away from their hold.] I will not tell you.

Greed: You will, spirit. Trust me. We get what we want.

Spirit: Like that archangel?

Greed: How- How does she know? I thought that was classified information?

Damian: She keeps watch of everything. That's her curse.

Greed: Curse?

[The Spirit is only silent, looking down.]

Damian: She made a deal with Lucifer. She wanted to know everything and she did. The exchange was her voice. She cannot speak of what she knows and the silence drove her to craziness until to her death.

Greed: Is she a devil? An angel?

Spirit: I'm a spirit. I cannot take sides with what I know.

Damian: You will speak. Where is he?

Spirit: Lucas?

Gabriel: Do you think she'll tell?

Damian: She's dead either way.

Spirit: [She laughs.] I'm dead either I tell or not. He's so close... [Gabriel gasps.] Yet so far.

[Greed and Damian looks around.]

Damian: Did you hear someone?

Greed: No. Maybe you're just imagining things?

Damian: Just to make sure, let's look around.

[Spirit discreetly walks towards where Gabriel and Lucas are hiding and pulls the both of them towards a different direction, leaving Damian and Greed on the set.]

Greed: Damian! The spirit is gone!

Damian: We've been tricked.

[The scene darkens and Greed and Damian exits the stage.]
