Well, I guess I now know why my Orb of Anywhere was so powerful. And was able to absorb an Infinity Stone no problem. I also know why Azazel never bothered fusing it to himself…
Oh well, what’s done is done. So I’ve got the eyeball of an Eldritch monstrosity fused to my soul… For a Gamer like myself, that’s just another Tuesday!
[That’s the spirit!]
I left Azazel’s makeshift lab with the assurance that we would have some healing sessions every few days until he was fine again. Kokabiel also came back from his ‘walk’ and I decided to give the two of them some room to talk on their own. Hopefully, Kokabiel hearing about the peace treaty only being temporary when it came to the Devils would bring him and the few hundred Fallen Angels that followed him back into the fold.
I was walking down the Asgardian palace hallways and heading back towards the throne room. I was hoping Hela was finished with her meeting and we could spend some time together. My hopes came true when I turned a corner and saw Hela herself, along with a retinue of her guards coming towards me.
“Layla! There you are. I was just coming to look for you. I was hoping we could catch up.” Hela said. The way she phrased ‘catch up’ along with the glint in her eyes told me that we would be doing more than just talking. “You all are dismissed for now. Layla and I will be heading towards my chambers for the rest of the evening.” Hela dismissed the guards that were following me as she took my hand in her own.
“For the evening?” I asked her mischievously.
Hela smirked down at me. “Yes. A very long evening if I have anything to say about it.
…
–Heaven’s Most Beautiful Angel–
Gabriel walked down the streets of New York city taking in the sights. Even back on Earth DxD, she didn't get to leave Heaven often to visit Earth. Michael always had too much work for her to do. That’s why she enjoyed opportunities like these.
Her wings were obviously hidden away as she toured the streets in some magically created human clothing. She usually preferred to just wear her toga, but the recent human inventions known as jeans and t-shirts were surprisingly comfortable as well.
“Hey there gorgeous! Do you want a hotdog? Half off, just for you!”
Gabriel realized someone was talking to her and she turned to address them as was proper courtesy. It was a local food vendor and the sign on his cart said that he sold Hotdogs. Gabriel had never had one of those before. She had heard that New York was famous for these and would have liked to try one herself–but. “I apologize. I do not have any human money on me currently.” The vendor looked at her strangely for some reason after she said that. “Is something wrong?” she asked him.
The vendor shook his head. “Nothin. Jus’ the way you phrased that is all.” He said with a typical New York accent that Gabriel found fun to listen to. “You look kinda familiar. Have I seen you before?” The vendor asked her.
Gabriel shook her head. “I’m afraid not. I don’t get to come down here that often. Michael has me stuck doing endless paperwork in Heaven all day long!” Gabriel pouted. “I really envy my youngest sister Layla for being able to live among you all and have so much free time. And I know envy is technically a sin and all, but I find it's the lightest of all of them really.” Gabriel continued to babble off.
She missed the expression of dawning realization on the vendor's face when he started to suspect he may not be talking to a human. “Is that so? Everybodies overworked these days, aren't they? Here, why don’t you have this Hotdog on the House.” He said and he handed her the food free of charge. Gabriel graciously accepted his generosity and thanked him.
“Mmm. This is good.” She said as she took a bite.
“Of course it is!” The vendor bragged. “I made it myself after all…um, what was your name miss?”
“Oh! How rude of me. I am Gabriel. It is nice to meet you, Mr. Hotdog Vendor.” Gabriel said enthusiastically.
“Right…Gabriel…right…” The Vendor mumbled quietly.
Gabriel finished eating her Hotdog right there on the spot. She’d heard the people in this city could be rude, but she’d already found a nice person!
Gabriel winced suddenly. She felt a pure soul was in terrible pain nearby. She turned her head and felt that the source of the pain was coming from a nearby large building. She asked the Vendor what the building was and he told her it was the Maria Stark Children’s Hospital. Apparently, a kind man known as Tony Stark had them built all over the country in honor of his mother who passed away.
“I feel that I am needed over there. Thank you for the Hotdog.” Gabriel said. An instant later, her twelve white wings manifested and she flew over the crowds of people and traffic to land in front of the children’s hospital.
“I gotta call my brother Vinny! He’s never going to believe this!” Gabriel heard the vendor exclaim as she took off.
“Oh my god! Another Angel!”
“Someone take a picture!”
Later that night, newscasts all over the world displayed pictures and testimonies of the Archangel Gabriel herself descending to New York and healing every terminally sick child at Maria Starks Children’s hospital. The next day, New York was once again flooded with tourists hoping to get a glimpse of an actual Archangel mentioned in the bible.
