Chapter Twelve


With George now knowing about his demonic blood, he knew he had to keep it on the down low. All the other angels thought of him as one of them and the higher ups were certain he had no clue of his past. Once he finally calmed his nerves, he found out he was able to swap between his demon and angel forms anytime, but now his angelic state gave him a small demon form.

"In my dream, John told me Despair could barely survive on his own. But where could they have gotten angel blood?"

"Most likely Azrael, the angel of death. He's able to go to both heaven and hell, and now that George belongs in both places, he'll be able to take us down there no trouble at all." Brian explained. "But we'll need to go quickly before anyone notices we're gone."

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Meanwhile in the pits of hell, Lucifer himself was on his throne, dealing with some sinners. "Now if you repent your past actions you will be sent back up to heaven."

With them lifting up into heaven, the two angels and the crossbreed approached the goatlike devil. "Umm.. Mr. Devil? My name is Brian Epstein.."

"An angel with an actual name, that's certainly a first. What brings you all the way down here?"

He then set us eyes on George, it had been years since he last seen the eighth sin. "You.. You're Despair.. My youngest son..."

Tears filled the eyes of the mighty demon, it was a rare sight for sure. But as a father to seven sins he cared dearly for his little demons, and you can bet he had his mind on his missing sin ever since he was taken. "I wish I found out earlier. I must have caused you so much grief being gone for eighteen years."

"It doesn't matter now, all I care is that you're home! How did you ever discover your true identity?"

"I met with John, Paul and I were assigned to keep an eye on him. Then when I met with him, I felt some sort of connection with him. Then when I dreamt about him, I found myself turning into this."

"Ah, your demon form. It has been a while since you found yourself in this, I take it you were trapped in your angel form most of your life?"

"I was, but even then they hid my tail and antennae."

"It was to keep the others from harming him, I was assigned to raise him alongside Paul. The virtue of Charity." Brian explained. Out of nowhere, six more demons came out of the shadows. "Oh.. The other sins have arrived."

"You!! You're the guy who took him!" The angriest looking sin declared, ready to beat the tar out of the oldest angel.

"No! It was my superiors. They make all the decisions, including there being only seven sins."

"Those guys are so uptight, thinking they can be in charge of what we do around here. Us demons do things our way which is best."

"I take it you're the sin of Pride, and the other is that of Wrath."

"Yep! That's Mr Martin and I'm Cynthia. Our little brother Gluttony is on earth as you know, until the month is over that is. We each take turns coming to earth on each of the seven continents to find sinners and bring them to justice. But I hope he won't mind coming down early for a family reunion."

"I'll contact him about this, hopefully he's doing well up there. I was worried something might have distracted him from his mission."
