“We need to find Micheal now!” Gabriel hissed as he tried to maneuver around her,

“You need to rest.”

“I’ll rest after he’s caught!”

Gabriel hissed as he tried to take another step towards the door,

“Gabriel you are no help to anyone if you injure yourself even more!” Catalina yelled,

Gabriel stared back at her, his eyes slightly widening,

“What are you staring at?”

“Your eyes.” He hissed again as he hunched over, clutching the wound in his chest.

“What about them?”

Catalina glanced at me. A mixture of worry and curiosity shone brightly.

“Why are your eyes still orange?” I asked her.

Before I could answer a familiar voice from across the room answered.

“That is because the Lock is open, and she can fully access her gift.”

We all turned around to see a tall pale woman with dark silver hair that reached to her waist which was identical to her large silver eyes standing in the middle of the room.

Lilith.

Without even thinking I rushed over and pulled her close and hugged her as tight as I could as she hugged me back.

I could feel her smile against my chest,

“It’s good to see you too, Lucifer.”

I pulled back,

“How are- how are you here?” I asked, still not believing that she was here, standing in front of me after so many years.

Lilith smiled as she dropped her hands down from my back,

“The Lock was opened, not only are we now able to walk freely, but we were able to find and contact you.”

With the lock in place, very few of my people could walk freely in the world but no one would be able to track me or find me or even contact me. We were cut off from each other. Until now.

They’re free.

“But how did-”

Lilith’s eyes glanced behind me, nodding towards my brother leaning up against the island.

Gabriel.

He hadn’t wanted us to heal him until he bled out.

“To open the lock and let you be able to go home, you had to find someone that loved you and you loved them. Pure love, Not coerced, Not forced. Pure love.”
