"Don't you dare" Case hissed as the other two council members began to move towards Abigail to follow the head's orders. They stopped after hearing Case' demand, unsure of what to do. "They don't take orders from you when I'm here. Convert her" the boss repeated. The other two looked at one another in confusion, then continued moving towards the girl. "I told you, if you touch her you're dead" Case repeated, making them stop once again. His father seemed to be irritated, or he would have been if that were possible, and turned to face Castiel. "What do you plan on doing, letting her die?" the older god questioned and Castiel let out a loud sigh. "I want you to pardon her". The man stared back at his son with an odd look. "I don't need to remind you that you already did that once, illegally might I add. It can't be done again". Castiel rolled his eyes and took a step closer to the man. "It can and it will".
Aidan listened as Cordelia explained that Abigail had gotten sick again and she was being taken to Eden. Eden. What was that again? He remembered seeing and hearing the name somewhere, but where? His mind was becoming more cloudy by the second. Eden… was an island. He could remember that much. An island for curing? He assumed that’s what it was, f Abigail was being taken there. He remained silent for a moment as everything slowly came back to him. That island was only for those infected with the angel’s disease. Aidan’s eyes widened and he looked at Cordelia, just as she announced that he had to be taken as well. He and Abigail both had it. When had this happened? ”A-Abby-“ Aidan was more concerned about his sister but he couldn’t speak, r even think. His vision was beginning to blur. The last thing he saw was Cordelia coming to him and kicking him up and then everything went completely dark.
Leon kept his gaze glued to the floor in silence, until finally, roman turned around. "Why are you hurting me?". So his words were having an impact after all. He got what he wanted, but it didn’t make Leon feel any less awful about hurting him. ”Why?” he repeated quietly as he turned to face the other. He knew what Roman was asking. He didn’t ask Leon why he was being insulted, nor did he tell him to shut up. He asked why it hurt, and Leon had to tell him the truth. ”Who do you think they caught me sleeping with?” he asked, knowing Roman was smart enough to fit the pieces together. ”Why do you think it is that you can’t remember anything other than waking up and being told to capture me.?”. His eyes locked with Roman’s and his chest felt tight, but he had to continue. Roman needed to know that this wasn’t his place. ”Why do you think, out of all the angels on Eden, they chose you to lock me up?”. His eyes were beginning to swell with tears. This turned out to be harder than he thought. If Roman didn’t believe him, Leon didn’t know what he’d do. ”They knew this would hurt me… they knew-“. He stopped talking and looked at the ground. He couldn’t break down in tears, not here and mot now. Not until Roman remembered.
