Two years since Joesph and Azrael were brought into the world. Sadly, a life became lost, it turned out to be Alex. Satan brutally stabbed her multiple times, leaving everyone else devastated. But now...

Clayre's Point of View

There she was laying.

In the damn blood pool.

Alex was dead!

I couldn't stop crying. That monster just killed her! And right in front of our kids too! They were crying, it was too much to bear. I couldn't stand the sight of seeing Alex dead. "M-Mom! Pl-Please! Come back!" Jenny cried, Connor giving her a hug.

A few moments of silent went by before the cell door opened again. "It's open! We have to go!" I heard Bon yell.  We had an escape plan...This wasn't part of it. I looked to see Rin had busted it down.

"What about Alex?!" Korey yelled, I knew her voice sounded devastated. "We can't just leave her here!"

"Korey! I'm sorry! She's dead, we can't help her now!" Laura yelled back.

"I-I can't!" I began crying, hugging onto Alex's bloody body. Alex just come back! Please! I'm begging you!

I felt a hand on my shoulder, I looked up to find Yukio standing there, a sad expression. "Clayre...We have to go."

"Alex wouldn't want you to stay here and suffer." Jin said.

"Clayre..." Caira stepped forward, I looked at her as tears fell down my eyes. "They're right, think about the kids. Alex wouldn't want you and them here. Not even you Korey." She said.

I looked back at Alex, Korey only slammed her fists on the ground, John hugging her close as she sobbed. My face scrunched up, my lip quivered, and the next thing I did was kiss Alex's forehead. I sniffled, as I got up, carrying Joesph. "I love you Alex..." I said.

The sound of footsteps came to our ears, Leon immediately waved his hand. "Guys, we gotta move." He said, we hurriedly rushed out the cells, leaving Alex's body there. Korey and I didn't want to do this, we really didn't but we had no choice. I had to, for the kids.

We kept going, subtlety sneaking past the guards and the growling demons. "This way!" Desmond whisper shouted, leading toward a spot. Just then, we saw what seemed to be a portal.

"There it is! Our way home! Come on!" Logan said, running into the portal along with the others. I looked back at the dark palace, tears fell from my eyes again as I remembered my wife.

"I'm so sorry Alex..." I said, stepping forward with the kids who kept their heads down, they were silent. Understandably, they just witnessed their own mother die. I shakily sighed, going through the portal. Goodbye, Alex.

"I'll miss you..."

Korey's Point of View

We all landed on soft, green ground. The smell of fresh air hitting us, I glanced up to see the sun out. Almost three years in that hellhole and here we are. We escaped.

But without Alex.

I dropped to my knees, the feeling of guilt and anger eating at me. The only thing that kept me calm was John, Jen, and Seth, all three stood by me. My husband hugged me. "Sh-She was like our daughter, John..."

"I know Kor...I'm going to miss her..." John said.

I looked to find Clayre crying, hugging her kids close. My eyes burned as the waterworks came again. How could we have just left Alex there? I felt so angry. It rose when that blonde bastard went up to us, scratching the back of his head. "Hey uh..."
