She sees a woman with tattered wings nearby, musing over some ancients texts and she stares.

The woman looked inhumanly beautiful, a beauty which couldn't even be compared to the beauty of mere mortals. And she resembled Dash somewhat.

She's even more beautiful than Kyle, shit.

Alessa would think as the woman stops reading and turns to her, a ritual knife in hand.

"Firis, fallen angel and former agent of God."

Firis said, cautiously approaching the table where Alessa was laid out and tied down to. Her voice was soft but chilling, and her face, her face was so clear of imperfections that it frightened her.

"Girl, I have brought you here to my humble abode to sacrifice your purity and blood to gain power. To have more power than God himself," Firis would start, "your purity will bring me a step closer to ultimate power."

Uh... This is some Ancient Greek levelled shit.

Alessa's face was a bright red at the mention of purity. Obviously she wasn't this stupid. She was referring to her virginity and how her virginity and blood would grant her ultimate power.

"Uh... Sorry to dash your hopes but I'm not a virgin."

Alessa found herself saying out loud as Firis turned to her, confused for a moment as she finally began to process what was relayed to her.

"Dash your hopes? ...Dash?"

Firis repeats before reacting rather violently to the mention of her son's name, screeching, hands digging into her hair as she talks in an unknown language, summoning a demon.

Alessa raises a brow when she sees Bob bowing to Firis, watching her with admiration before she fires a energy blast at him and he explodes.

Alessa is sprayed with demon blood and she would squirm so she could look at Firis, eyes wide.

"Yeah, yeah... YOU JUST HAD TO KILL A DEMON STANDING RIGHT NEXT TO ME?!"

She yells, loosing her temper as she managed to loosen the ropes and run, hearing the growls of demons pursuing her.

Alessa, wiping demon blood off her face, turns and placed her arms in an x motion just in time to block a demon's swiping claws.

She cried out when feeling a sudden searing pain shoot across her arms and she bit her lip once seeing deep claw marks.

"Well crap."

Alessa mutters as the sound of Firis yelling for the demons to find and drag her back to her, and she runs, occasionally stopping to wipe at the spilling blood from her arms.

She pants and stops halfway, hearing a familiar voice. Turning, she sees Joshua and Dash fighting off a horde of demons and she sighs in relief, walking over to them after they had finished their job.

"Shit, your arms..."

"I'm fine; it's not like I'm dying or anything..."

Alessa would say as Dash proceeds to heal her arms, and she looks over at Joshua.

"How... How did you guys get here?" She found herself asking out of curiosity as Dash steps back and looks around to see if any demons had followed her.

"We're the only ones who can come and go as we please because of the angel and demon blood in our veins."

Dash would say and Alessa nods understandably, glancing over at Joshua with a small smile across her lips.

Then they hear Firis screaming from corridors away, enraged and annoyed that her plan was already falling into tatters.

"She isn't too happy with me, is she?"

Alessa questions as she overheard Joshua and Dash talk quietly, and she would lift a brow when they mentioned the possibility of her getting fed to a few hungry demons as Firis just found out about of her lack of sexual purity.

"I would rather have my boyfriend eat me than a hungry demon."

"THIS ISN'T THE TIME FOR DIRTY JOKES, ALESSANDRA!"

And Alessa appears to rolled her eyes, much more spunkier and talkative than before. Probably because of the tension and adrenaline running through her veins.

"Josh, a girl's gotta say what's on her mind."

She folds her arms over her chest before energy blasts were fired at them.

"AND THE ONLY THING ON MY MIND APART FROM KYLE IS THE FACT WE SHOULD GET IN THE HELL OUT OF HERE!"

Alessa finds herself yelling as Dash stops dead in his tracks and turns to see Firis flying at them full speed ahead.

Motioning to Joshua, Dash unsheathed his blade as Joshua used his shadow powers to restrict Firis's movements.

She howled and screeched and thrashed around, all attempts of escape eliminated as soon as Alessa appeared from behind and physically held her back—knowing Joshua couldn't keep her restrained for long.

"Dash, now!"

Alessa yelled and Dash walks over to Firis and after a moment of silence and taking Joshua's blade, stabs Firis in the heart and watches as she slumps back, eyes rolling at the back of his head.

"Only his blade can kill angels and fallen angels."

Dash says and hands a wide eyes Joshua his blade back and Alessa glanced between the two, smiling.

"You gave my brother that blade? How romantic."

And she grins once seeing how flustered Joshua was as they stepped through the portal and ended up back at the apartment.

"You... You..."

Joshua would say and he choked, glancing away once Dash looks over and waves, chuckling and Alessa's grin widened.

"Well, at least we got you home safe."

Dash said as Kyle runs over and pulls Alessa into a very tight hug, and Alessa squirms.

"Hey! I get it, you were worried and you missed me. I'm fine, don't worry about it."

"But... But..."

"Kyle. Please don't act as if I died or something."
