It had been a rather long while since Raziel had been in contact with Zachariah and he wasn't certain what exactly the angel was up to and where he had been or perhaps what had set its claws into him but Raziel had no time to worry upon it. There were pressing matters that needed to occur with or without the presence of Zachariah.
The army of brothers and sisters Raziel had gathered to stand along side him in order to ensure their mission continued as needed was by no means alrge but it was powerful and alrge enough that they would not fail. No while their other brothers and sister went about weeping for society Raziel and his army of brothers and sister would ensure that one day paradise would fill the earth and the seperation between earth and heaven would be no more.
And until that time they would need to break several eggs to ensure their "breakfast" went off without a hitch. SO Raziel had done what he needed to ensure that those on the side of their plan would be in attendance and from that point on their war would begin.
Walking into the empty and run down tent which had not so long ago served as the meeting place for the church of a supposed "healer" Raziel made his way to the front and sat silently in an empty chair. His eyes stared forward taking in teh abondened cross on the make shift alter.
This place would now serve a higher purpose. It would serve as the place where the plans for the end of days began.

The blood spell the demon had worked turned out to be rather powerful as Daniel found himself suspended in oblivion for a while. He knew he would be in trouble for allowing the prophet to escape, in the hands of a demon no less. Who knew what plans for the telepath that bitch had for him. He wouldn't put it past her to pass what he knew on to other angels... assuming they didn't kill her on sight.
But he had managed to free himself, and when he had returned, Harper had fallen off the radar again. He had hoped, that maybe the demon had disposed of the boy herself, but that hope had been dash as very recently Harper had reappeared.
Daniel was not looking forward to having to explain to Raziel that he had failed, and why he had failed, but he knew he had to, it wasn't information that would go unnoticed.
He was glad, though, that he had arrived at the meeting place before anyone else. It would be somewhat less embarassing without witnesses.
"Raziel," the angel said, nodding his head respectfully. "I have some... less than good news."

As Raziel sat in silence for several moments he had begun to wonder if perhaps no-one would appear. That perhaps he had been mistaken in the mind set of the others; perhaps they truley did not comprehend how important this all was and why it had to be done. The presence of another silenced hsi fears though and several moments later he recognized the signature of his brother Daniel.
"Daniel..."
"Raziel, I have some... less than good news."
Raziel frowned slightly his eyes darkening ever so slightly. That was ahrdley the best way to start off a conversation and even less of a positive way to start of their particular meeting. The last time he had seen Daniel he had sent him to dispose of the telepath. The moment the telepath had slipped off the radar Raziel had assumed the job done and had not bothered himself with thoughts of Harper Benedict any longer...what could have possibly been so hard about that?
"And what is your less then desirable news brother?" Raziel asked standing and turning towards his brother.

"And what is your less then desirable news brother?"
Daniel looked his - considerably more powerful - brother in the eye and sighed. "The telepath," he explained. "He escaped. I failed."
The one job he had been given to do, and he had failed. It was not really a good way to show support of the cause. Because he did firmly support it, he would not have been so eager for a task if he didn't. But support wasn't enough, action was what mattered. And in this case, the proper course of action had not been carried out.
"I'm sorry."

Ariella had been away from her brothers and sisters for some time now. She preferred solitude sometimes and it was better for humans when she got the peace she needed. When she was constantly being pestered, she had a tendency to do bad things to the human race. And as entertaining as that was, it could be frowned upon.
But now, Ariella had another problem. She was out of the loop. And that she couldn't possibly have. Her darling Zachariah appeared to be impossible to contact, so she was going to have to get in touch with someone else. She had always been particularly fond of Raziel, so when she honed in on his location, she headed towards him.
His location was the State of Nebraska, which Ariella had never had much use for. But she was not about to question her brother's judgement. The "building" he had stowed away in was nothing more than a filthy tent. Ariella was a bit displeased, but when she realized it had once housed religious fanatics, it perked her up. Stepping through the doorway, Ariella glanced around to observe.
Raziel was not alone, he was accompanied by Daniel, who Ariella had not seen in....years? Decades? Centuries? She'd lost count. And just as she drew near, Daniel was apologizing for something.
"Hello." She purred, strolling down the aisle way towards her brothers. "It's been awhile. Anyone care to fill me in on what I've missed?"

"The telepath, he escaped. I failed."
Raziel eyes glared back at Daniel for what could have very well been a century. He had sensed the telepath blink from teh radar though...but since that point in time he had not bothered to search for him again. After all what good was it to hunt for the dead? Closing his eyes for a moment Raziel reached out and there slightly shadowed away was the essence of the telepath...very much not dead.
"I'm sorry."
"I do not care if you are purple. You failed. And once this meeting is completed you will fix it," Raziel replied his vocie low and alced with anger.
There was no time for slip ups and there was even less time for a human who could very well spill everything they had been planning to anyone who would listen.
"Do I make myself clear?"

Daniel half expected to spontaneously combust under his brother's gaze. He had clearly been right in thinking that Raziel would not be pleased with the turn of events. He just hoped he would have a chance to fix it.
"I do not care if you are purple. You failed. And once this meeting is completed you will fix it,"
The angel immediately began trying to sense the telepath's location. There was everychance it could disappear again during the course of the meeting... if he hoped to find Harper and destroy him once and for all, then he would at least need the last place he had been seen.
"Do I make myself clear?"
"Yes, brother," Daniel said, his head bowed low in shame and respect. He was still alive... for now at least and he would make sure he stayed that way.
"Hello. It's been awhile. Anyone care to fill me in on what I've missed?"
Daniel turned to his sister, and forced a smile, as if nothing was wrong. "Ariella," he greeted. "I didn't know you were... sympathetic to the cause."

Ariella shook her head. The look on Raziel's face was far less than pleased. She didn't blame him. Anything that involved another being apologizing was most likely something to be angry about, or at least amused. And amused was apparently not at the top of Raziel's list for the moment.
When she reached the two, she found she enjoyed the look on Daniel's face just as much. The act of trying to be pleasant when there were no pleasantries to be exchanged was always a good time. Now it was Ariella's turn to be amused.
"I didn't know you were... sympathetic to the cause."
"Oh, Daniel, really, you underestimate me. Would you have honestly had any doubt?"
Ariella wandered about the alter for a second. Picking up a flower pot containing a dead plant, she turned it over in her hands before looking at the other two.
"Raziel, please tell me you wouldn't have had the same assumption. I've been away for.......awhile which most unfortunately has put me behind in the details. But I assure you, there is very little I am more passionate about than this."
Ariella picked a few dead flower petals from the plant and rubbed them between her fingers until they became dust. She felt as though she had been unproductive for too long. It was time to play.

"Yes, brother."
Raziel still glowered at Daniel wishing nothing more then to cut his brother down in that very moment. But he knew better; he knew that currently they needed as many on their side as they could gather but should Daniel fail again not even their need for numbers would save him.
"Hello. It's been awhile. Anyone care to fill me in on what I've missed?"
Raziel's entire stance changed as Ariella joined them. His brothers and sisters were answering the call and that was a very good sign indeed. Their own numbers were extremley important in this fight as it was imperative that the end of times was started. It was needed to ensure that paradise was brought to earth. There was a means to the end and those who failed to see it were not the salt they had been formed from.
"Raziel, please tell me you wouldn't have had the same assumption. I've been away for.......awhile which most unfortunately has put me behind in the details. But I assure you, there is very little I am more passionate about than this."
"I wouldn't dream of such thoughts Ariella," Raziel replied glaring at Daniel once more before turning towards his sister.
"Besides you have picked the perfect time to return as this is when youa re needed to stand amongst your brothers and sisters the most."

"Oh, Daniel, really, you underestimate me. Would you have honestly had any doubt?"
Thinking for a moment, Daniel shook his head. "Of course not." She was the angel of wisdom after all, and as such, she would see the wisdom of what they were doing.
Daniel lowered his gaze away from Raziel as he recieved another glare. He had one more chance... and he would make good on it. It was clear what the consequences were if he should fail again. As Raziel and Ariella began to talk, Daniel took a step back, allowing them to talk without constantly being glared at... hopefully.

"I wouldn't dream of such thoughts Ariella,"
"Good." Ariella smiled as she moved to stand beside Raziel. "Because I'm most assuredly at your service."
"Besides you have picked the perfect time to return as this is when youa re needed to stand amongst your brothers and sisters the most."
"I wouldn't dream of being anywhere else. Besides, I'm been dull and unproductive for too long. Keep me busy, Raz."
Her eyes fell on Daniel as her mouth moved into a faint smirk.
"Of course not."
"I thought not." She glanced over at Raziel. She wanted to know what exactly it was that Daniel had failed on, but it might take awhile to get that information out of her brother.
"What would you like from me, Raziel? Whatever it is, I won't fail you."
She shot another smirk towards Daniel as he seemed to slink away. Ariella didn't really like mistakes-never had. Which is why she didn't make them.

Raziel offered one last glare to Daniel before refocusing his attention on Ariella. Raziel would keep his aptience and allow Daniel one final chance to correct his mistake; after all their father did teach forgiveness. So one final chance...and then Raziel would burn him till there was nothing left but feathers.
"What would you like from me, Raziel? Whatever it is, I won't fail you."
"Good to know that I can at least count on that," Raziel replied as he took a seath at the first pew in the mock sanctuary.
"We have several who are loyal to our cause but we need more; we need powerful allies. Whether they be willing or be a bit forced. Find our cause more angels Ariella; I don't care what you have to threaten or torture with just see to it."
They were playing at a dangerous game but Raziel had gotten word that Raguel was walking on earth now whihc meant this his defenses in regards to ruling over the angels wouldn't be as strong as if he was still in heaven. If they could take him out all together their problems would be a lot less.
But taking on the judge of angels was no small task.

"Good to know that I can at least count on that,"
Ariella could not resist the urge to shot a satisfied smirk in Daniel's direction. Whatever he had done, Raziel was holding him responsible for it and that was what Ariella liked. Her biggest pet peeve was wrongs that went ignore-and uncorrected.
"Name it, Brother." She murmured, as she waited paitently for her brother's orders.
"We have several who are loyal to our cause but we need more; we need powerful allies. Whether they be willing or be a bit forced. Find our cause more angels Ariella; I don't care what you have to threaten or torture with just see to it."
Ariella nodded, not taking her eyes off of Raziel for a second. It might take her all the resources she knew, but she would obey his orders.
"Most assuredly, Raziel. I will do whatever it takes to bring more of our brothers and sisters to our service."
This was not going to be the easiest of jobs. There were too many of her siblings who sympathized with the humans and would want to stop their plan. No matter, Ariella was certain she could sway even the strongest of loyalist.

"Most assuredly, Raziel. I will do whatever it takes to bring more of our brothers and sisters to our service."
"See that you do Ariella," Raziel explained his vocie still laced with anger in regards to the fact that the telepath who could destroy their cause was still running about the earth very much undead.
As if out of the air Raziel produced a long silver thin sword and held it out to his sister.
"A bit of assurance for you in regards to convincing those to join our side. Those that deny you will have to be dealt with as we cannot afford loose ends...do I make myself clear sister?"
It was no small task to take on and kill brothers and sisters but their cause was important; what they were fightin for was important and if others did not see that then they had no place in the new paradise and since their father had long since vanished it was up to them to sort things out now.
The world was theirs and they would do with it as they pleased.

Daniel was beginning to feel very awkward. Actually, awkward was probably an understatement. He felt extremely unwanted and a little bit fearful, knowing full that he was lucky to still be standing.
Between Raziel's glares and Ariella's smug smirks, he concluded that this would be the single worst meeting in creation. For him at least. He would be ignored and silently mocked, and of course not given anything else to do since he already had his task. What then, was even the point of him being there?
Deciding there was absolutely no point to his presence whatsoever, Daniel disappeared from the makeshift Church, focused on finding Harper. There was every chance Raziel would be angry with him for leaving but then again, it wouldn't change anything would it? The only way to fix things was to kill Harper Benedict. So that is what he would do.
