I turn around from my sprint and gaze at the other woman.
How did she get through that barrier!? Has my magic really weakened that much? Gabriel thought.
He looks at the stranger and proceeds into another cave with a nod which seems to ask the stranger to follow him.

I see Leirbag's gesture and hurry after him, praying that he will not lead me into a trap. I turn a corner into a cave. Not surprisingly, it's dark. "Where are you?" I call into the never ending void. My call only echoes back to me. 'Great,' I think. 'I've lost him.'

"I'm here..." Gabriel responded and gently tapped the stranger's shoulder. "Who are you... and what do you need from a demon like me?"

"You're a demon? I thought for sure you could help me.... I don't know who I am, or why I'm here. I know I have faith in God, but everything else is a blur." I begin crying and fall to my knees, all the confusion and sadness since I came to the Lake of Fire pouring from my eyes and sizzling on the hot ground.

Gabriel couldn't help seeing the stranger in this condition. He picks up the girl and wipes her eyes.
"No... I am not... but... I wasn't sure I can tell you. Hell... after all... isn't the best place for an angel.
As for help... only the divine knows the reason for why you are here... I'm just following my orders."

I sniff back the tears and force a smile. "I suppose you're right, but how can prayer reach Him from here?"

"...well... as long as you haven't voluntarily distanced yourself away from the divine... it is not hell. The divine will tell you eventually what your purpose is." Gabriel replied.

I look around a notice that I am alone. I start out back to the palace, there I can look for both.

"Quick... take this and bind my hands with it." Gabriel replied as he handed the girl a pair of handcuffs. "Then, take me to the palace and explain that you caught me for the queen.
Perhaps... you will be saved from punishment then..."
He sighs and coaxes the girl to take him to the palace as prisoner - the girl's blade ever close to my neck.

I reach the palace and walk in. A servant comes to me knowing that I am mad. I throw the servant with force against the wall of the hall and continue to walk to the throne room.

Gabriel is there in the throne room kneeling with his hands bound with a pair of handcuffs. The stranger from before holds his own katana to his neck. He looks down to the ground - wondering what's going to happen.

"Bound and threatened by your own wepon. That must make you feel pretty bad. And you Vicious how dare you run away from me! Did you think that you can just leave me and think I will not have second thoughts about what you will do? Only you did bring him, I point to him." I get up and grab the katana and throw it at the wall. "You may go freely Vicious, this time." I look at you with peircing eyes.

Gabriel kneels silently - not looking at the queen. He doesn't move, he doesn't talk. He just waits for what she is going to do.
At least... her life is spared for now... he thought as he waited for the queen's move.

I walk behind you and laugh. Grabing your shoulders. "Stand my pet." I force you up and make you walk to the doorway.

Reluctantly and with some resistance Gabriel walks towards the doorway that the queen leads him towards.
"...Where are you taking me?" He grumbles.
