They all jumped on Damien's back, flying out.
"Lay your weary head to rest

As they flew out, Crowley looked forward, his mouth dropping open and then glaring at D. "You stupid fuck."
The Capitol was crawling with angels, walking around and about, standing on pillars and churches and homes. They also saw Sanchez's army facing a massive army of angels, a vicious battle ongoing.
More forward, they saw the other army also fighting the robotic angel crowd. Crowley's attention was drawn to EH1 Lewis smashing shit. He nodded in appreciation.
"Alright." he said quietly. "It may be helpful for some of you to get off here."
The angels very much noticed this dragon coming toward them. In fact, blue magical missiles fired directly at Damien, requiring some creative aerial action to avoid.

He glanced at his sides, seeing that any blasts being fired were targeted at Caspian, DH Lewis or Peter. None at Damien or Crowley. He glanced at the trio. "I'm afraid that your place isn't here, it appears." He snapped his fingers, and the three appeared next to a now confused EH1 Lewis.
Now, Crowley gripped Damien's scales. "I'll guide you to the Falls." he said. A sort of yellow line appeared in front of Damien, gesturing where he should go forward and how so. The angels around them allowed them to pass safely, raising Crowley's suspicions.
He spoke again to Damien. "So. How was Egypt? And I imagine you need an update on the world as it is now?"

Egypt was... strange. James killed me. Then I was a warrior, fighting the Fae. Merlin revived me. I fought in Jerusalem. I saw Oberon.
Damien flew through the skies like a jet - fast and graceful, the wind at his mercy. The skies were the bitch of Damien Seward. He felt like a god. A familiar feeling, much like being on multiple drugs or holding an ancient sword.
I suppose I should know what the world has become. How long has it been? A few years if Lewis' son is involved in how the school runs.

Zarkenis Ultima wrote:Frederick heard the metallic voice speaking inside his head. It was not such an unfamiliar sensation to him, however. During his life, many voices had crawled their way into his head one way or another, always bothering him with their speeches and fancy special effects, always trying to scare him away, or to get him to abandon all expectations of both survival and victory, two things that were often not quite the same and sometimes even mutually exclusive.
The scale he carried with him at all times was a proof of exactly how many times this had ever worked. It was not a very big number, or indeed, one that even indicated existence.
"You're scared." The Dragonslayer said as he paced around the battlefield, even as the battle had begun. The blasts, he dodged. The cherubs, he avoided. But he did not fight back, not yet.
"You want us to surrender, but it is evident that we are not willing to do such a thing. We don't agree with your ideals, something we have made evident, yet you extend this invitation to us nonetheless. You are quite an intelligent man, however, and thus, it makes no sense. It is redundant. The answer is the same as always. So, then, why?" Frederick continued, walking near a molten puddle that was once a fearsome angel.
"You are not a merciful man. Or, perhaps you are, in your mind. Yes, that's more likely. In your twisted mind, what you do to your people and ours is mercy, salvation. And yet, why would you extend your mercy towards us, when we come to your home and slaughter your kinsmen? It makes no sense, either. You are a smart man, you should know better than that. And so, why would it be? The only reason I can think of..." He said, easily plucking the cherubim's massive sword from the ground with one hand.
"...Is that you're scared." He stated, and paused for several moments, before shrugging.
"Or maybe not. But I can't exactly drop my weapons and I felt like giving a mostly pointless speech." The dragonslayer concluded.
"You've recovered quite quickly haven't you?" Ciel remarked before turning her attention back to the battle at hand.
"I suppose." Came Frederick's reply. And then, holding the blade in front of him, he began breathing fire. Usually, he did not bring out very large flames. They were, at most, the size of his head. But this time, this one time, they were massive, indicative of the man's resolve to battle these things that wanted to destroy the world, a world he'd been through a lot of shit to protect. And so the flames quickly heated the blade, massively so. Before long, the metal was red-hot, all of it.
Frederick then placed his other hand on the hild and charged with his giant burning blade, ready to cleave his way through the armies of heaven.

Peter immediately assumed a defensive stance -- he put his hands up like he'd seen in some bad kung-fu movies. He grunted, screwed his eyes shut, and concentrated.
After a minute of doing that, he gasped and exclaimed, "Shit Shit Shit Shit!"
The process of mind-melding with Caspian in the first place had stripped him of his Sphinx powers -- that's what he had wanted, after all -- and now he was just an ordinary fleshbag with very little experience in fighting. He had, by his count -- assuming the memories were real -- died approximately three times already in his life.
He did not wish to die a fourth, but perhaps that would be inevitable.
At his back was Caspian Lawrence, whose immediate response was to pull out the mock-Excalibur, brandishing it with practiced hands. It had a good weight and balance to it, this sword. He would have to name it... perhaps this would be the battle in which it would earn that, he mused. Looking back over his shoulder, he called, "What're you shitting about?" to Peter.
Eyes wide -- Peter's eyes tended to do that when he was in trouble, you might recall -- Peter shouted, "I can't do the Sphinx thing! Oh, god, I'm going to die."
Suddenly, Peter found a talwar -- Caspian's talwar -- being waved in his face.
"What the hell am I going to do with that? I don't know the first thing about swordfighting, especially not with some Arabian scimitar," shouted Peter.
"It's a talwar, Indian, and fine!" shouted back Caspian. Suddenly, Peter found himself being handed a sci-fi gun: a Smith & Wesson 12836 triple-plasma-action revolver, tagline 'It eats angels for breakfast'. Well, not really, but that's the one Caspian gave it.
Peter grasped it and said, "Okay, maybe this I can use!"
He promptly pointed it at the nearest angel and fired.

"We're all about to die," D said, "Personally, I don't plan on doing that nicely. Let's go make a fucking legend."
D dropped from the dragon's neck, waving to Crowley as he fell.
Ah!
Like a rag-doll he tumbled, limbs akimbo. He missed the mountain completely, it would seem - not that it much mattered where he died. He plummeted down towards the earth of Heaven - from which life, many said, was crafted.
Once I rose above the noise and confusion
Just to get a glimpse beyond this illusion
D's body suddenly went rigid. He held his arms tight against his sides and stretched his palms out. Still he fell.
I was soaring ever higher
His palms glowed a burning white.
But I flew too high
And he exploded upwards through the air, arcing so as to climb up the mountain.
Though my eyes could see I still was a blind man
He hurtled above the battlefield on the mountain, seeing it in its full glory; it was a pity, he thought, that this mountain didn't seem to have a name. What would they call the battle in the history books? "The Day Shit Got Fucked"?
Sanchez's army - though without Sanchez, that was an inaccurate name - fought valiantly. But they were surrounded, trapped at the peak while angels crawled up the sides and dropped down from the air mysteriously. They didn't stand a chance - especially not with reinforcements crawling out of the city.
Though my mind could think I still was a mad man
There was no hope. But that's the amazing thing about people - they can imagine hope whenever they like, conjure it, like magic.
And when people have hope, they get pissed.
D was very pissed.
This was Uriel's work. This was his plan - to slaughter them, to hang them in the streets, to rape their women, to burn their homes, to stomp on the embers of everything they were until they glowed no more. And he had D's sister.
He had Rosalind.
This could not, would not, be allowed. At the very least, she would be freed or he would be dead. Such was the oath sworn three times over.
I hear the voices when I'm dreaming,
D flew down through the battle, aimed at a particularly mean-looking cherub, who loomed over a frightened student, wielding a massive axe.
"Please..." the boy whimpered, his magic flames failing to even touch the angel's skin, "...just die!"
The cherub swung at the boy's neck, a perfect arc - beheading.
The axehead exploded. The cherub felt the handled wrenched away from it.
It looked up to see D staring it down, holding the handle. The boy cast it aside, bent down, and tore a boulder from the earth.
I can hear them say...
He flew high into the sky, as high as he could as fast as he could - then he pointed the stone downward and flew back towards the cherub fast enough to break the sound barrier.
Carry on my wayward son!
There'll be peace when you are done!
The rock, and the angel, turned to liquid. D flew away from the student without comment, towards the Capitol. He smashed fist-first into the cement foundation and flew upwards.
The force-field was a dome, not an orb.
Lay your weary head to rest,
Don't you cry no more!
D exploded out of the other end of the Capitol, uppercutting one of the metal angels.
"For what it's worth," D said, "this is not the song I meant to do this to."
Constaniana wrote:Nightkill the Emperor wrote:"Who here will surrender?" asked that voice again.
"Does he think he's talking to Frenchmen?" William asked, managing to stand up at least in order to properly wave his two fingers at Uriel. "Anton's right. Bugger you to Hell, and then a bit further down, because those poor people have suffered enough without having you show up." He bent down and grabbed some bits of rubble on the ground, squeezing them in his fist for a few moments as he glanced up at the descending angels. He didn't want to start flying up there, since his magic was too dangerous to do that sort of thing, but there was no reason he couldn't send something else flying up for him. The knight began charging his light magic in his fingertips as he squinted and took aim at the oncoming foes, before flinging the rocks up in the air and launching them at luminous speed railgun-style at the angels, assisted by his supersoldier brain stuff.
Nude East Ireland wrote:Nationstatelandsville wrote:"Goddamn you!" Aziraphale spat, leaning over Anton and waving his hand over the wound; a thin layer of ice appeared, stymieing any treasonous blood that might try to escape.
"Say 'yes' if you can breath."
Anton glanced at Aziraphale and nodded. "Let's... fight."
His voice was harsh and raspy; he could probably heal it later. Now he had to fight. He summoned up his strength and blasted himself into the air like Iron Man. High into the sky, he spun like a top, whips of fire extending from his outstretched arms and smacking Angels. He ceased spinning and began to fall. As he did, he whipped at Angels left and right, smacking and thrashing the mechanical abominations.
Before he could touch the ground, he allowed the whips to disappear into the air, which freed him to blast forward and flip. He landed on his feet, yet fell to his knees. His hand rose to his neck, where he felt the wound. Pain spread from his neck to his body and into his head.
I don't need my voice, he thought.
He looked above. Gathering his energy, he used both hands to send a blast of fire into the air at a grouping of Angels.

One angel morphed its arms into machine guns as well, since Fred was much admired by some of Heaven's top brass and they liked to copy his style. These machine guns blasted away at him.Astrolinium wrote:
Peter immediately assumed a defensive stance -- he put his hands up like he'd seen in some bad kung-fu movies. He grunted, screwed his eyes shut, and concentrated.
After a minute of doing that, he gasped and exclaimed, "Shit Shit Shit Shit!"
The process of mind-melding with Caspian in the first place had stripped him of his Sphinx powers -- that's what he had wanted, after all -- and now he was just an ordinary fleshbag with very little experience in fighting. He had, by his count -- assuming the memories were real -- died approximately three times already in his life.
He did not wish to die a fourth, but perhaps that would be inevitable.
At his back was Caspian Lawrence, whose immediate response was to pull out the mock-Excalibur, brandishing it with practiced hands. It had a good weight and balance to it, this sword. He would have to name it... perhaps this would be the battle in which it would earn that, he mused. Looking back over his shoulder, he called, "What're you shitting about?" to Peter.
Eyes wide -- Peter's eyes tended to do that when he was in trouble, you might recall -- Peter shouted, "I can't do the Sphinx thing! Oh, god, I'm going to die."
Suddenly, Peter found a talwar -- Caspian's talwar -- being waved in his face.
"What the hell am I going to do with that? I don't know the first thing about swordfighting, especially not with some Arabian scimitar," shouted Peter.
"It's a talwar, Indian, and fine!" shouted back Caspian. Suddenly, Peter found himself being handed a sci-fi gun: a Smith & Wesson 12836 triple-plasma-action revolver, tagline 'It eats angels for breakfast'. Well, not really, but that's the one Caspian gave it.
Peter grasped it and said, "Okay, maybe this I can use!"
He promptly pointed it at the nearest angel and fired.
This angel happened to be Calliel, who ducked. The blast kept going, hitting the evil angel that Calliel happened to be fighting.
Calliel gave Caspian a reproachful look. "You have good angels on your side too. Robot wings bad, normal wings good." he instructed, his hand then grabbing a nearby angel, freezing it solid, and then throwing it away as it shattered into pieces.

As he flew upward, he rolled so that he was now upright and facing Uriel's dragon. He let out a mighty roar, which became the genesis of a stream of searing flames that flew directly towards his foe. As he breathed the fire outward, he flew at the dragon, his great wings propelling him at an incredible speed. Through the fire and the flames he carried on, ramming head-first into his counterpart and sinking his huge teeth into its chest.
Only a lizard of different scales. he hissed.
He raised his dragon legs, pressing his feet against the enemy, and with a great push he sent both him and his opponent in different directions - he pulled his neck back as well, tearing through his enemy's chest and ripping off chunks. He flew upside-down for a minute, before flipping back over and opening his mouth to let the bits and pieces fall to the ground.
He turned slowly, almost gracefully, to face his opponent once more.
That's all the truth I know. He was mocking his opponent.
Nat: Night's always in some bizarre state somewhere between "intoxicated enough to kill a hair metal lead singer" and "annoying Mormon missionary sober".
Swith: It's because you're so awesome. God himself refreshes the screen before he types just to see if Nightkill has written anything while he was off somewhere else.
