Set up

"I am going to ask you guys for the last time now, where are you hiding my Josh?" Luciana asked with a loud voice. All the worshippers present where frightened to the bone when they saw her fallen angel's face. She opened the bag that she was holding and brought out the demon knives and the chains that was in it, scaring the worshippers more, expecially the newbies.

"What is this? And who is this Josh that you are talking about?"  The Leader of the worshippers asked. Trying to act bold, but deep down he was scared to the bones and wished that Michael could just come down and deliver all of them.

The question that the leader had asked pissed Luciana off, was he trying to make her look like a fool or something?. "Now listen, any more of this foolish questions, I am going to do something that you are going to remember painfully for the rest of your life." She thundered, then she brought out the letter that was  written to her and gave it to the leader, "now I am going to ask this once, and don't mess with me. WHO WROTE THAT LETTER?!!." 

The leader of the worshipers froze as he recognized the letter that she had given to him.. he remembered vividly that Michael had told him where he would find a heavenly ink, in one of the houses along the outskirts, when he got to the house, he had suspected it to be where an angel had once lived because he found particles if  feathers from wings that seemed to be really gigantic. But then he did not bother to investigate further as Michael did not ask any of that, he only picked up the feathers that he could find, got the ink, and left the place. Because nothing else mattered to him except for what his master had asked him to do.

"I wrote the letter." The leader of the worshippers said, causing all the new convert to shout in shock. "But I only did it because Michael asked me to, and nothing more.".

Luciana sighed, as finally she felt like she had already started to find  out things about her missing boyfriend. "How can I be sure that you are saying the truth?"  She asked.

"Our Leader never lies, he always says the truth, wether you believe it or not." The chief whip replied hurriedly. "He has told you already. I can not lie, that's my secret oath as the priest of michael, I never tell lies." The leader added. "You can search the whole place if you wish,  I live here too, I would not jeopardize my safety for nothing."

Luciana sighed deeply as she saw that he was saying the truth, something was definitely wrong some where and she needed to figure it out, and she needed to figure it out immediately. She was lucky that none of them present there saw her face before she changed to her real nature, and no one knew the Josh that she was referring to except the Leader. Or so she thought... She ran out of there and back to her house to think things straight.

The next day, Lucifer was to meet with the witches, he wanted to inform them about the latest happenings and what he now has in mind. Selina had come to his room earlier to inform him that Divina and the other witches where ready to meet with him, and that they where waiting for him at the hotel's conference room, which was at the top floor of the hotel. He had struggled up from bed and had gone to the bathroom to wash himself up, and now he was ready to meet with them. He walked up to where Sia Layed and kissed her left cheek, asking her if she was going to go with him to meet the witches. "I'm too tired gun, I still need to catch some zeeez" she muttered. 

Lucifer giggled. "Catch some zeeez?" He thought to himself. Humans where really funny with words wheren't they?. He left her there and walk out of the room, straight to the conference room. When he entered the conference room all the witches present stood up to welcome him. He smiled as he nodded and they all took back their sits. "I know you might be wondering why I called this meeting." He said as he cleared his throat, "well there are a lot of things we need to talk about, but first and foremost, I need you all to know that yesterday I had a visit from the messenger of Time."

"Ghoul?" Divina asked, as she was the only one in the room about from Lucifer that knew about him. The other witches raised there eye brows while looking around I confusion.

"Yes ghaul." Lucifer answered before facing the other witches. "I know that you guys might be confused, but don't worry, Divina would tell you more about him later on, but for now, I just want you to know that he is a very important messenger and what ever he says, usually happens." He paused a bit and took a deep breath. "He told me something about the war, and that is why I want us to restrategise."

Luciana paced  up and down around her house, still thinking about the case, she had not gotten any sleep through out the night, she could not help but wonder who could have taken him, she knew that the person had to be aware of the letter and also about Josh. And since it was not the priest, then who else could no about it. "The chief whip?"  She wondered, he could be the one, he had acted suspiciously the night before, but she did not bother to ask about him, because she was too busy with the priest. Maybe she needed to question him too, she thought. 

She rushed to the bathroom and took a swift bath, before running back to the Church of Michael. When she got in, she saw the priest on the floor, holding his belly, as his blood poured freely on the floor. She rushed towards him and held him up. "It's my chief whip, he is the one who took your fiancee" the priest struggled to say amidst the pain he felt......

Just then she heard a sound from behind her. "freeze, it's the Police, whatever you do or say would be used against you in the court of law."...
