No Use Crying Over Spilt Blood

You stared at the green angel with unbelieving eyes. How could he be alive? You heard him getting killed.

"You must be surprised to see your old friend Y/N." Ashton said with a smirk. "He's been very helpful to me."

Skylar grinned evily and twirled a silver dagger in his hand. "Sorry Y/N. Guess the light side didn't appeal to me as much as the darkness. I hope you don't think too ill of me." He sneered. Michael growled beside you and took a step forward before you stopped him."Michael. Don't. He's only trying to get to you." He looked into your eyes and they cooled down to his green color.

"See that's all nice and romantic, but I'm trying to make a point." Ashton snapped, making you jump. His huge wings unfurled and spread as far as they could. His eyes glowed red and his jaw clenched. "This all ends now. No more warnings. No more teasing. This is the real thing." Luna dragged one of her sharp nails down the length of her arm, blood beading from the cut. It smelled wrong and was almost a black color. She started chanting in Enochian and the ground started to shake.

"Michael!" You cried out and his arms held you close. "I'm not letting you go. Hold on aziazor."

Luna continued her chant and her eyes rolled back into her head, the ground trembling, threatening to break.

Skylar smirked, playing with the long dagger in his hands. Ashton on the other hand was spinning some sort of icky blackness inbetween his fingers.

"Scared Y/N? You must be. I never wanted to put you in this situation, but Ashton's terms seemed to good to pass up on. I really hope you make it." Skylar shouted over the sound of the earthquake. Just then, angels flew down from the heavens, standing behind Ashton. His army was growing by the second and didn't show any signs of stopping. Luna's earthquake ceased and the angels kept joining their ranks.

"Thank you baby for summoning the others." Ashton said huskily, brushing his lips over her ear. She shuddered under his touch and he seemed to know it. "Now Michael. I'm giving you one last chance. You can join me and rise to being a ruler alongside me. Or you can stay with your tolteregi and have your blood spilled. It's your decision." Ashton offered. Michael stared him down and clenched his jaw, holding you tight. "Go to hell Ashton." Ashton's laughter boomed throughout the night sky and he motioned for his army to unsheathe their weapons. "We're already in hell brother."

Michael swiftly spun you around and pushed you towards Luke and Kyanna before he was struck by a bright red beam. He was flung into the air and smacked into a tree at full force. Ashton cackled and blew on his hands. "I'm so glad I got the first hit. Now the battle can begin."

You rushed over to Michael's side and helped him up to his feet. "Michael! Are you Ok?" He cracked his knuckles and stretched his wings."Y/N stay out of the way. I don't want you getting hurt." He seethed, taking off into the air."Y/N! Over here!" You turned back around to see Kyanna motioning you over. You quickly ran over and looked from her to Luke."Is there a plan?" You asked. Luke pulled out his chakram and spun it in his hands."Take Ashton down." Kyanna shrugged and nocked an arrow. "Seems pretty straightforward to me."

Ashton's side was the first to attack. An angel named Genisis slashed through one of Michael's angels. The blade she used was definitely laced with palladium because the angel burned from the inside out. Luke snarled and jumped into the air, spinning to gain momentum. He landed in front of one of Ashton's henchmen, swinging the chakram. He sliced clear through the angel's neck and you watched the head fall to the ground. "Damn. So glad he's on our side." Kyanna mumbled.

Ashton was taking angels down one by one. He was cutting through them all so quickly. You barely knew what was going on because so much was happening."Y/N! Duck!" Kyanna screamed. You did as you were told and ducked down to the ground, hearing the arrow whistle past your head. You heard the sound of the arrow piercing through the angels' chest, an awful wet sound which was followed by a thump.Kyanna had killed one of Ashton's secondhand men. It was a perfect hit and took him down right away. "Bullseye." She grinned.

Michael was at the front of the ranks, using his sword and his malpirg ability to bring down the enemy. He came face to face with Luna and tried to slash at her, but she was too quick. She zipped around him and clawed at his cheek, leaving long cuts. Michael hissed in pain and swung his sword at the ghost-like angel. She laughed and continued to play him like a game.

Skylar was almost as strong as Ashton with his daggers and his razor sharp wings. Apparently when he changed, his wings had developed thorn like pricks on the edges. Now he was using them to slash through your friends. You were infuriated. Betrayed. You reached for the dagger at your waist and flung it through the air towards him. It sunk right through his left bicep and left him howling in pain.

"Nice aim." Luke breathed, snapping a traitor's neck. You nodded and watched him struggle to hold the chakram. "Luke is there any Avdcal left?" He shook his head and smiled weakly."I'll be alright aziazor. I'm not dying anytime soon." You really wanted to believe him. An angel came up right behind him and before you could scream, Michael had shot down from the sky and stabbed him in the back. "Thanks esiasch." Luke thanked and took off again.It was so hard keeping track of your friends. One would be fine one second, then in peril the next.

Kyanna shot arrows off every second, hitting all of her targets with extreme accuracy. It was insane. But she kept a smile on her face.

"On your left!" You heard and you moved out of the way. Alessa came flying through and barreled right into one of the enemies. She had a palladium infused taser that would send the victim into quite a shock. Fantastic.

Every once in a while, you'd have to use your spare dagger for self defense and injure the angel. It seemed to work because then Luke or Michael would finish them off.

You scanned the battlefield and saw that Michael, Luke, Alessa, Kyanna, Ashton, Luna, and Skylar were still alive. Some of the angels you had come to know were laying crumpled to the ground with blood flowing from their broken bodies. Your heart squeezed when you saw one of Luke's friends with a giant hole where his stomach should be. It was terrible.

"Luke! To your right!" Michael barked and Luke slammed the chakram into the angels' chest, making her fly into a crowd of enemies. Michael was back to back with Luke, fighting off more angels with fire and blades. They were Ok for now.

Suddenly, arms grabbed you from behind and took you with them, flying up into the night. You shrieked and kicked, trying to get out of their grip. "Will you shut up for once Y/N? Your whining and complaining is getting on my last nerve!" His voice gave you goosebumps. He lowered down to Ashton's side and kept you close. "Ashton! I got her."

Ashton turned and a smile spread across his lips. "I knew you'd be useful to me somehow, Calum."
