I turned to face him,
“I’m fine Lucifer. I just want to try.”
Lucifer looked at Gabriel and I could tell he wanted to say something but was holding back.
“Well I’m gonna try, you two are more than welcome to join me,” I said as I gently pulled from Lucifer’s grip and made my way further onto the field.
I heard Lucifer sigh and a few seconds later I heard Gabriel and Lucifer’s footsteps behind me. I couldn’t help the slight smirk that came on my face.
Knew it.

Lucifer’s POV
“Gabriel, stand right there.” Catalina pointed to the spot in the middle of the field. Gabriel and I followed her of course. If she wanted to train, we’d be here to help her.
“What are you thinking?”
I asked her as Gabriel walked to the spot and she backed up towards me.
“I’m thinking what better way to practice shaping the flames than by practicing making the cage that will contain Micheal.”
She is brilliant.
“Be careful and let me know if it becomes too much.”
While her idea to practice making the cage to have her gift take shape was a brilliant idea I didn’t want her burning herself out. Using her gift usually didn’t take a lot out of her but creating a cage and possibly holding it for hours? Who knew what that would do to her?
“If you could also try not to singe my hair and clothes by the way, that would be great,” Gabriel yelled from where he stood, Catalina laughed and I watched as she closed her eyes and extended her hand, and within a few seconds, a flame started to circle Gabriel.
She’s getting faster.
Gabriel was now encased in a circle of fire. A perfect circle.
Ever so slowly she lifted her other hand causing eight pillars of flames to appear. I watched as the pillars got higher and higher until they were practically the same height as Gabriel connecting at the top and enclosing him in. The familiar warmth reminded me of home.
I looked over and saw Catalina, eyes open, that stunning shade of green shining through, with a smile on her face.
Beautiful.
“How long do you think you could keep that up for?” I asked.
She shook her head,
“I’m not sure but I can try and see-”
“Maybe another day, You’ve done enough today, we can try again tomorrow after you’ve rested.”
Catalina nodded
“Very well.”
She lowered her hands and slowly the flames started to rescind, revealing Gabriel, fully clothed, and not a single hair burnt off. Gabriel approached us, excitement in his eyes as he hugged Catalina.
“Well, I say this was a successful training day, you two go and get cleaned up, I’ll visit Micheal.”
Catalina nodded her head and began to walk back to the house.
