It was silent. It had been silent for hours upon hours as everyone worked to find any peice of evidence in regards to where Louis could possibly be.

Liam and Zayn worked together in one corner of the room, examining the note that was written to Louis, and the picture of Louis they had recieved.

Niall sat with Celeste and a few other angels he had met, working on trying to find where they could possibly be.

What felt like weeks to Harry, was a mere few hours, and he felt like he was going crazy.

"Has anyone found, anything, yet?!" Lucifer yelled out, many grumbles sounded, all saying the same answer.

No.

"Fuck, this is useless, he's in pain!" Harry grunted, pointing to the no longer bright necklace, burning his skin.

Niall quickly ran over, holding a book.

"Harry! The necklace will glow brighter the closer you get to him, but you have to be able to channel the energy to do so" he gasped out, pointing to a certain page.

"You couldn't have told us this sooner? You made the necklace!" Lucifer pointed to Asherah.

"Get your finger out of my wife's face" God grunted, and Lucifer glared at him, everyone obviously stressed.

"Of course I knew, but it's nearly impossible to channel the energy needed with him this far away... I've used many times, when he was just a young boy and always running off, but it would glow immediately....he's too far." she murmured, tears still in her eyes, from her little boy being missing.

Harry shook his head, "I can do it. Tell me what to do."

The woman shook her head, "You have to make a sacrifice in order to be able to harness the power... I didn't mean to ever make it that way... It just happened. That necklace is full of magic and basically has a mind of its own."

"A sacrifice?" Zayn asked.

She nodded, "You need many things to get the necklace to work," she looked down, deep in thought, "-the tears of a human, to show pain. The blood of an Angel, to show death, and then the blood of a Demon, to incorporate remorse."

"We can get that easily!' Niall spoke up, the woman yet again shaking her head.

"No, it's almost impossible to get a human tear, you all know that. It would burn as soon as it touched one of us."

"We can try! Fuck its worth a shot and nobody else has any better ideas" Harry grumbled, and God nodded.

"Very well... good luck boys" he sighed.

Harry nodded, signaling for Niall and Zayn to follow.  All three of them stood straight up, shutting their eyes as each pair of pitch black wings came out. The Angels watched in awe.

"Wait! Let me go. I can help." Liam's white wings came out. Harry nodded, and the four walked out of the palace.
