Avalyn's Pov
My white dress flows with the breeze going through the halls of the Archangels castle, or whatever they call this place. My hair spirals down my back in waves with only two pins in keeping it out of my face. As if that could help me see things clearly as if that could open my eyes to the wicked things going on in this paradise.
My eyes search for doors that look important as if it would be labeled with secrets. Something is not quite what it seems.
I am not what I seem. The Archangels were hiding things from me. Raphael, though I could tell he had no choice, was hiding things from me. I know I am a Goddess, though I don't know what type, and I have not let the archangels or anyone realize I knew. Though they are very aware of what I am. I could tell by how they treated me or the looks they would give each other. I didn't know what would happen if they found out of my knowledge, even if it's a little. I only was sure of one thing.
Michael is not on mine or my sister's side.
I hadn't told Thana everything, of us being Goddesses and sister ones at that. I could tell she was hanging on by a thread.
I remember the dangers of when that thread breaks.
So I needed to find more answers before presenting her with everything.
My head snaps to a door at the sound of muffled voices. The tone of voices piqued my interest, and I quickly but quietly made my way to the door and pressed my ear against it.
"Michael, she hit me! You made her Queen has given her too much confidence!" I hear Don accuse, and Michael chuckles at his words.
"Well, did you provoke her?" My heart flutters at Raphael's calm voice as he tries to get more of the story.
"Of course not, I want her!" Don defends, but even I hear the lie.
"You don't have to lie to us. I don't care about that bitch. This opened doors I was hoping for." Michael boasts proudly. I can imagine him beaming as his ego rises.
"Michael," Raphael drawls out in a warning tone. "Mind your tongue when talking of her," He adds, causing Michael to scoff.
"She is not sane enough to fulfill her duties. The Goddess herself made a mistake in having her."
"Michael, you are speaking in a tone of the Moon Goddess that God would not tolerate." Raphael scolds, causing Michael to retaliate quickly.
"God is not here. I am in charge, little brother, so mind your tongue before I make plans for your Goddess as well." Michael taunts, and I hear his heavy feet move across the floor.
"Michael, leave Thana alone, you and I both know what she is capable of. You will bring destruction to us all if you mess with her," Raphael warns though an egotistical scoff from Michael follows it.
"I know what I am doing, So stay out of it like a good brother." My eyes widen at the threatening tone in Michael's voice as he teased the unknown plan.
"I turned away at the game you played with sending Thana to Lucifer, but you can not threaten the lives of us," Raphael warns, and I can't hear if Michael responds.
"Well, what are we going to do about the fact she attacked me!" Don yells abruptly, causing myself to roll my eyes.
"I will take care of it," Micahel promises. I slowly start to back away, knowing I needed to find out more information, quickly. Before Michael carries out whatever he just promised.

Thana's Pov
My black dress hugs loosely around my body; my hair moves with the light breeze moving from in front of my face. I take a deep breath as my feet take me back to the cottages on our island. The walk to clear my head as Morana advised helped a little. I didn't feel as though anything was more apparent, more like still blurry. My feelings for Lucifer haunted me, and the ones for Don enraged me.
The darkness deep within me begged to kill him, to rip his head off and throw it to the gates of heaven. I ignored her, like always, as much as I wanted just to give in, I knew I couldn't lose my sanity again. If I did, I would kill more than just Don.
My lips pull up in disgust as I sneer at the other man I would kill.
Michael lands gracefully on the island, his eyes scanning the reapers before they land on me. Don lands to his right, following his lead as Michael starts striding to me. I walk calmly closer as the reapers watch in surprise; As well as fear.
Why would Michael be here? He deemed himself too worthy to ever deal with us. We were peasants to him.
"Thana," Michael calls already accusing me by saying my name.
"Michael," I say in a more relaxed tone.
"You attacked Don for no reason," Michael fumes, and I tilt my head in confusion. Michael was no actor; even I could tell he didn't care that I attacked Don.
"Is that the best excuse you could find to come down here and stir whatever shitty dish you have cooking," I spit and I notice a few reapers gasp at my words. All of the reapers go on guard, nervous at what war my words would cause.
Michael narrows his eyes at my words, confirming my suspicions. "Thana, it would be wise for you to tread carefully." My expression is emotionless at his warning tone. "You attacked an angel. You should be on your knees, begging me for forgiveness!" Michael's voice is loud and violent. I don't flinch as I keep my neutral expression.
"Shouldn't you hear my side of the story?" I ask politely, and Michael smirks at what he believes to be respect coming from me.
"Yes, only because your manners have improved."
I look to Don, who is smirking at me. "He called me an evil bitch, and I went like this," I said as I raise my hand, quickly letting darkness shoot from my hand hitting Don and sending him flying back like the last time. Michael's eyes widen as his jaw drops at my actions.
"Thana, you will be punished, you better start begging on your knees or-" I cut Michael off as I lift my hand and darkness leaves, catching him by surprise and knocking him back.
"You made a mistake when you crowned me Queen, I am. Not. Your. Bitch anymore." With each word, I take a step towards him as a dark crown forms on my head, and darkness floats around my hands. "This time you will beg me," My tone is low as Michael looks up at me from his place on the ground, he quickly shoots up into the air.
"I am an archangel; you are powerless compared to me." Gold power surrounds his hands as he aims it at me. "Because of your treason, your reapers will pay," My eyes widen as he moves his hands, letting golden power escape.
I quickly throw my hands up, letting the darkness form a forcefield around us.
"What are we going to do?" Morana finally finds her voice as it shakes in fear.
"I say we fight!" Zagan exclaims as he rushes up beside me, fireballs engulf around his hands.
The other reapers shout agreements letting their powers show, except for Kasedeya, who shakes her head at us. "They will kill you all."
"I'm tired of being underneath them. I say we riot!" Dearil yells and the others cry out in agreement, they then look at me in anticipation. I nod slightly before allowing the dark forcefield to lower. A golden beam crashes through, but I quickly dodge it; the other reapers fire at Michael, causing a surprised look to take over his face at their rebellion. He dodges their attempts effortlessly.
He looks at me with fire in his eyes. "You have started a war. You will all perish!" Michael exclaims as he sends more golden beams before quickly flying away.
"He left?" Morana asks out loud curiously; she looks at me in wonder, and I nod.
"Of course, how would it look if an Archangel killed all the reapers?" I pause for a moment. "Like abuse of power, Michael is all about his appearance," I answer, and the reapers nod in understanding.
"This will not end well," Bora states sadly, and I nod at her words.
"It will end in death," I promise as I look up towards the heavens. I was done being treated like shit on the bottom of their shoe. They made me Queen, and this time I intend to protect my people, even if I have to burn everything around us.
"Could Lucifer help?" Morana asks, and I quickly shake my head no.
"I won't drag him into this," I state without looking her way. This is not his fight. It would be wrong of me to drag him into it though I do know a group of people that would love to help. "I have to go. I'll be back."
My wings break from my back, and I quickly fly to earth.
I land in a pasture, cows graze around me, and I start to wonder if they would even acknowledge. I don't waste a second before closing my eyes and willing them to feel me call out.
"Did you decide to take me on my offer," I open my eyes and see Lust standing in front of me.
"What the hell do you want you weak reaper bitch," Wrath growls as he walks up beside Lust.
"I see Lucifer let you out again," I say, making sure to put a warning tone with my words. His glare gets more potent, but he doesn't say anything else.
I look at the rest of the sins as they walk up. Pride makes sure to port herself upfront. Letting me know she is the one in charge.
"What do you want? Just because you have a crown, you think you can control us we do-"
"How much do you hate the angels?" I ask, cutting her off, and her eyes widen in shock.
"What?" Obviously thrown off by my question.
"What kind of question is that, of course, we hate angels." Lust answers, and I nod.
"Perfect as do I." I start, and every sin looks weary at me, not sure where this is going. "I'm tired of Michaels bullshit. Though there aren't enough reapers to really take him on." Pride opens her mouth, but I again cut her off. "I'm not asking you to fight. I'm asking you to throw off balance on earth and cause more chaos, keep him and his angels busy."
"Sounds like a lot of work," Sloth grumbles as he crosses his arms, before yawning.
"I think it sounds fun," Greed giggles excitedly as she looks to pride, hoping she agrees.
"I think it is high time for a shitty year. We can make it so bad they think the world is ending again!" Lust states excitedly as she grabs prides arms.
"I wish I was as excited as you guys." I hear Envy whisper.
"Fine, we will cause more havoc on earth, I hope you have a plan, Michael will surely destroy you for messing with the natural order of things." Pride advises me. I nod as the other sins start to fade away, going back to their duties.
"He will be to busy trying to put oot back together, trust me, I have plans for him," I say with a smirk and Pride returns it as she fades away.
I close my eyes and feel for Morana, wanting her to come to me for the next step.
Thankfully she only takes a few minutes to land beside me. She gives me a worried look. "You got that look on your face, I don't like it, " I smirk lightly at her remark. "I'm not going to like what you have planned am I?"
I shake my head at her causing her face to pale.
"We are going to kidnap all the fertility fairies."
Morana gasps as she grabs my arm. "What! We can't no one can get pregnant without the fertility fairies, we can't disrupt that!"
"It's not forever Morana, I will release them after," I conclude and she rolls her eyes.
"Thana this war could last years!"
"Then I guess the people won't be repopulating any," I state as I look around the pasture, the earth could probably benefit from fewer humans. "I'm going with or without you so might as well help me," I say nonchalantly. Morana holds my gaze for a moment before sighing in defeat.
"Fine, but I don't like it."
I smirk and quickly let my wings take me away from the ground Morana following close behind.
