I spend the rest of the day in the 'training room' only leaving to get food, others come and go. Some actually train, some offer to train with me and others just sit and watch me in awe. When I come back into the dining room for dinner I immediately make my way to Denzel.

"How far along is my room Denzel?"

"Just finished, it's just a few doors down from Loki's and it has a window just as you requested." I nod and grab some food and then make my way to a small table all the way in the back where I have noticed no one sits. From here I can see everyone who comes in or out which is good because once Loki comes in I am able to turn away from him and focus solely on eating, by the time he has made his way from the food to my table I am ready to leave so as he sits I stand. Unfortunately he has other ideas and grabs onto me so I remove my arm temporarily until I am far enough that he can't grab me then I make it reappear and walk straight out of the door and towards my room.

I lay back on my bed with my feet against the wall as I stare out the window and into the nearby forest as I try to remember how a just few days ago I was free to live without fear and now I have practically every enemy possible. I lay my head on my pillow and go to sleep thanks to the peaceful scenery outside but I am quickly woken up by a loud crashing. I jump out of my bed and look outside to find a car lodged into the wall of the bunker, a tall male stumbles out of the car with a lazy grin.

"Gabriel, you can not keep destroying our bunker." Denzel shouts at the angel as I hide myself behind the door of my room. I shift into a dog and hope to god that Gabriel does not notice me, which is ironic but still my only option. But just my luck god, of course has other ideas and the first thing Gabriel does is zone in on my head poking around the corner.

"You guys got a dog?" He yells as he runs towards me, I back away but that only makes him pick me up. In his arms I can smell the very strong smell of alcohol emanating from him.

"Gabriel have you been drinking again?" Denzel asks.

"Yes." Gabriel says with pride.

"Well maybe you should put the dog down and get some sleep so the alcohol wears off."
"Nah, it'll wear off soon enough and I wanna play with your new dog. What's her name?" Denzel looks at me with a grimace. "Actually I don't care. I am going to the spare room to play with this puppo." My stomach drops as Gabriel teleports to the spare room and puts me on the floor. "I know who you are Eris, don't play these games." He says as he looks at me suddenly very sober. I shift into human with a sigh.
"I thought you were drunk."
"And I thought you were dead, looks like we both learnt something new tonight." Gabriel says bitterly.

"I was going to tell you but then."
"Then my brother found you, I know. Seems like you've caught the eye of a few of my brothers."

"Two is not a few."

"Three is though." I raise an eyebrow at Gabriel.

"Who is the third?" Gabriel laughs.

"Believe it or not, it's Lucifer." My mouth opens in shock.

"So now I have the devil himself, the king of hell, the winchesters, castiel, Balthazar, you and the trickster god all after me?"

"You're a very popular and attractive goddess." I laugh and turn to Gabriel.

"So Gabriella, who are you fetching me for?"

"I'm not fetching you, I'm here to stick around with you."

"Oh great." I say in fake sarcasm. "Now I'm stuck with you and Loki."
"Oh two big scary body guards, whatever will you do?" Gabriel mocks me and I roll my eyes. "But seriously, you're going to need all the protection you can get cause Luci has his vessel and is coming for you with everything he has."
