keeping the conversation he had with Gabriel to him self made Ash have bad dreams terribel dreams, there is a clearing and in the middle of the clearing is a dark circel with Rhemiel standing in the middle wearing a dark red dress its torn at the bottom, her hair is out and she chatches on fire burning eveything in her path, humans turn to ash and black dust trees burn, the grass eveything burns she then screams as the flams stop and she falls down, Ash runs over and she is dead her body is grey and cold to touch, as he touches her as he touches her face it breaks, cracks along her cheek, then her body cracks all over she sits up reaches out to him then she shatters Ash wakes up, in a cold sweat, he sits up then looks over at a sleeping Rhemiel she rolls over on to her side so she is now facing him, he laid back down and reaches out and touches her face with his fingers a strain of red hair falls in front of her face he moves it away, then kissess her on her forehead, she steers and wakes up covering her face then yawns, "good morning" " morning"  she sits up "Ash whats wrong?  I know you and i know that when something has a hold of you, you shut down and lock your self away, its been four days please tell me"  she reaches out to touch his shoulder but he moves " i cant" " Ash please" "no  we should and get ready the days wasting" he got up and left the room, she hugged her knees to her chest and laid her head down on them, then got up she dressed and left with out being seen. 

"your very sneaky, I forgot how sneaky you are what do I owe this visit?" Raphael said as he walked over to her she was surrounded by 13 enemies that were once her family, her friends, her unit, "look just tell me what you have done too Ash, four days he went for a walk and now he's different so which one of you talked with him? ill Waite but I will only ask once"   she had her Angel blade, Gabriel stepped forward "it was me " "and what exactly did you say every word leave nothing out" "I just told him the truth" "and what is that?" "what will happen to you when you finally die for good and where you'll go and what your true death means for this world" " right so he knows, then go ahead do it, go on try oh Waite you needed the stone first" "we have it,   it was a gift" "then use it" not yet in time you should go war's coming and I for one cant wait" Rhemiel left putting her blade back and left she sat alone by a river it was still raining she smiled to her self, " that tracking device, man its good" "its called connection my love  " "really" " I'm sorry" "you should have said something and would have told you that  I all ready knew, ive know since I became an Archangel, Ash its not your place to decided what information I know when I know everything already, its hard enoth knowing  how it ends but having you keep something from me like this, that's some how worse" " why didn't you say something first" she stood up dusted off and faced him, "because what good would it have done to know, to burden you with that" " Gabriel burdened me with it and for four nights now iv had the same bad dream, you die shatter like glass right there in front of me" " why didn't tell me" " I didn't want too say it out loud but I cant live with out you and dreaming about you dying it's killing me"  "its just a dream let it go, I not going any where and I wont give up with out a fight but I need you to stand with me, fight by my side and trust me, I cant do this with out you and I don't want too"  " okay I know ive said it before but ill say it again id follow you any where, I'm standing right here where I always have been, here with you only you" "we should go" "yep" she held out her hand he looked down at her hand and took it they headed home.
