Shawn gazed upon him in awe. "You are Michael."

Michael nodded. "Now tell me, what has changed?"

"I love her." Shawn said then turned to gaze at her face. "I am in love with her."

"It is forbidden." Michael said sternly.

Azazel chuckled. "You and your rules!"

Michael ignored him and continued to focus on Shawn. "Guardians cannot be revealed. You know this, Elyas."

"I don't need to be revealed. I just want to be with her."

Michael shook his head.

"You and your God Damn Rules!" Azazel shouted.

Raphael and Michael made the sign of the cross in his direction.

Azazel hissed and turned away from them and towards Shawn. "Listen here, kid. You two can be together at the snap of my finger."

Shawn was no fool. He was suspicious. "No rules?"

Azazel smirked. "No restrictions during life."

"What about death?"

Michael glanced at Raphael and smirked.

Azazel waved his hand. "Why worry about something so far away."

"You want my soul, don't you?"

"They have your soul too!" Azazel shouted. "You are slave for their doo gooder bullshit!"

"It is free will." Raphael defended.

"Bullshit!" He shouted. "He wants out and you are trapping the poor thing."

"He can stop being a guardian anytime he wants, but to be alive again...that is not possible." Michael explained.

"What about Austin and Isa?"

"Either you stay on with memory loss or we assign a new guardian to protect Isa's good nature."

"OR...you keep away from HER if you know what's good for you." Azazel said angrily.

"If you want a battle, you will get one." Michael said confidently.

Azazel's eyes squinted and turned a blood red color. "Been waiting for it."

"Really? Hmm?" Michael asked appearing puzzled. "Did you forget what happened last time you stepped out of line?"

Azazel roared in anger and lunged at Michael. "That was no battle! You sold me out!"

"You broke the rules."

Azazel's face began to stiffened up as he felt rage and frustration. Moments later his lips spread into a smirk. "Oh no, I did it again."

Michael appeared worried for the first time. "What did you do?"

Azazel shrugged in innocence. "Not me. Austin."

Shawn glanced at Raphael in fear then back at Azazel. "Don't you touch her!"

Azazel began laughing in an evil manner.

Shawn turned to Michael and Raphael. "Please help her!"

"We cannot interfere." Michael said looking truly heartbroken by this.

"What?! Why not?!"

"Only a guardian can..."

"Take me to her....please?!"

Raphael gave Michael a pleading look.

Michael nodded then waved his hand.
