It's You

Twenty-Nine

Camila kissed her way closer to his ear so she could whisper. "Come with me."

Shawn held her tightly and closed his eyes.

She moaned softly and held onto him. "Not here, Baby."

Shawn slid his hands so they were on her head and held her face looking deeply into her eyes.

Camila studied his face and could sense worry and fear. "Shawn? What is it?"

Shawn closed his eyes and pressed his forehead against hers.

"Shawn, you're scaring me?"

"I need more time." He said barely above a whisper.

"Baby?"

"Raphie." He whispered. "Raphie!" He shouted.

Camila panicked thinking he was having another spell. "I will get him."

"No need. I am here." He said standing behind them.

Shawn turned to face him. "I can't do this."

Raphie walked past him towards Camila and waved his hand. Her eyes slowly closed and he held her as she fainted.

Shawn looked horrified. "What did you do to her?!"

"Relax my boy. She is simply resting." He said then carefully placed her in one of the accent chairs.

Shawn ran over and knelt before her.

"I've already extended your time together."

Shawn started caressing her face. "Can you please extend it more? Please?"

Raphie felt for him. "It isn't up to me."

Shawn looked at him with pleading eyes. "Who is it up to then?"

"Michael."

"I want to talk to him."

Raphie couldn't help but chuckle. "I love your spirit, kid. I'm afraid there is no choice."

Shawn stood up. "I had a choice once. Why can't I have one again?"

"You made your choice."

Shawn knelt back beside her. "What happens if I don't want to do this anymore?"

Raphie's eyes widened in shock. "Don't joke about a thing like that."

"What happens to us if we change our minds?"

Raphie's eyes looked past Shawn and Camila causing Shawn to turn.

"Austin."

"You are not wanted here." Raphael said sternly.

Shawn had never heard him speak that way to anyone.

"You dare to speak to me?" Austin said.

Raphael stepped towards him. "I dare and I shall. You have no power here."

"Power?" Shawn asked.

Just then a shadowy figure walked into the room. Shawn felt a chill run through his body.

"Oh Raphael, when will you learn?" The figure said then stepped into the light. He was dressed in all black, had dark eyes, and a sinister smile. "Now Shawn, I can guarantee that you and Camila live happily ever after."

"What? How?"

"Don't listen to him Shawn." Raphael begged.

"I can even make Austin disappear."

Austin's eyes widened in fear.

With the wave of a hand he was gone. "See. All gone."

Shawn was horrified. "What did you do to him?"

The figure chuckled darkly. He served his purpose."

"Shawn, please listen to me." Raphie begged.

Shawn glanced at Raphie then back at the figure. "Are you...Satan?"

The figure leaped towards him and hissed in his face. Raphie put up a shield keeping him at bay.

"No, I AM NOT."

"His name is Azazel, leader of the fallen angels." Michael said as he entered the room.

Azazel hissed at him and looked upon him with contempt and hatred. "We already have the child."

Michael smiled. "So do we."

Azazel hissed again. "You are a fool."

Michael turned to Shawn. "Now what is this about you changing your mind?"
