"Don't make me force you out." Robb looked over his shoulder at Levi.

Lauren climbed out of the bed and chuckled. "Teaming up with my prey, are you, Robb?"

Levi looked wide eyed at her.

"Howdy, Aradia." Robb said.

"Levi, let's go!" Alyssa pulled him.

"But Robb.."

"He and I talked about this, we gotta go!"

Levi looked around, feeling lost. Then he exhaled sharply and nodded at Alyssa.

They both made a run for it, past the motionless guards and out of the house.

"I really don't appreciate you ruining my plan. Levi was so close." Lauren clicked her tongue.

Robb shielded the door and sneakily placed his right hand on the outside wall, away from her view.

"Should've thought about that earlier." He replied.

"Never too late, is it?" Aradia smirked as Robb drew a sigil on the wall with a glowing white liquid.

Angel's blood.

"You think I'm stupid enough to come here unarmed?" Robb laughed.

"You mean the sigil that you're drawing and thinking that I don't notice you doing that?" Aradia raised her eyebrow.

Robb inhaled sharply and his hand stopped for a second.

"I don't know what you're talking about."

The witch laughed. "Points for trying, Robb. Really. But you can stop, that won't even hurt me much less keep me locked here."

Robb finished the symbol and pressed his hand firmly on it. "Guess we'll just have to see."

Bright white emitted from the sigil and surrounded the whole room. Robb quickly ran away in the hopes of getting out safely.

Levi and Alyssa were standing under a tree on the other side of the road.

"What are we doing?" Levi asked as he saw the bright light in his room.

"Robb's sending a message to Crystal."

"The Angel?"

Alyssa nodded.

"And Aradia?"

"Other Angels will hold her off all enough for us to break the spell and get out."

"Then why don't we do this to get back on Earth as well?"

Robb came running out of the house.

"Because this one is weaker. The people here aren't even people. All they say is no. Dumb as f*ck." Alyssa said and stepped a little ahead as Robb approached them.

"I opened the portal, Angels are here." He said.

"Crystal?" Alyssa asked.

"Right on time. As promised." Crystal's voice made them all turn behind.

"T-T-The stadium! Now!" Alyssa said frantically.

Crystal closed her eyes and a light shone through her at the three of them.

Alyssa grabbed Levi's hand and Robb grabbed hers.

The light dimmed and they were gone. Crystal looked up to see the room's light go out.
