Amiera stayed on her throne, sensing the dark energy. She refused to surrender her palace to anyone.
Remonee ran through the towers and hall, freezing everything she touched. She made her way to the throne room slowly. A fallen grabbed her and she screamed, no sound escaping her. Her thoughts ran with fear as she felt the necklace ripped from her neck. She was mute once again and the Fallen would kill her if she didn't get help.
Mikal sighed. "I will use the magic I have left. I have my Fae, though we are weak against them." He said softly. "Don't try to heal me. It won't help. I will heal on my own." He said with a soft growl.

She shrugged. "Fine. Try healing yourself in a weakened state." A wave of annoyance went through her.
Torra sighed. "Ok, do you want our help or not? Because you're acting like you don't. We can go help the others if you would prefer." Though she knew he was in pain and busy running plans through his head she couldn't help but irritated with how much he acted like he wanted to be alone. "I have little patience for liars who say they want you around and then change their minds."

Mikal shot them both a look. His face was caked in blood now, from tears and pain. His aura was swirling around him, making him look darker. "If you don't want to help then dont." He said angrily. "I would appreciate the help but I can always end up like that!" He pointed to the bloody head of a woman on a pike at the gates of the palace. Her wings were hung below her head, and the headless body was hanging from a tower window. "That is what they do to us! That is my mother! My throne is bathed in her blood! And the worst part about it is that she was still alive when I got here! I had to watch them murder my mother!" He had fresh tears of blood and he hit his knees. "I can't do this alone. I can't..."

"Then quit acting like you have to. If you want help accept it when it's offered." Torra said angrily the spun around knocking three arrows and sent three more fallen to the ground. "We don't have time to be fighting with each other. Now I'm going to head down there alone or you can come with me. But standing here isn't going to get us anywhere." She looked at her sister and back to Mikal.
Standing for a minute concentrating on shadows. Her body became darker as she cloaked herself in shadows, crouching down she began walking down the hill completely shrouded. She knew these fallen could tell the difference between actual shadows and living things. But as long as she didn't move too quickly she would be fine. Coming around a corner she came up on three fallen who were talking. She moved in closer for better hearing.
A few more hours, maybe a few days at the most, we will have both the Dark and Water castles completely under our control.
I can't believe it was so easy to get control of both so quickly. Mother really knows what she is doing.
Soon we will have the Summer kingdom as well. Our troops should be there momentarily.
When the one finished speaking she noticed another fallen come into view. We have made it to the Summer kingdom. There is an odd presence with the Queen. We aren't sure what to do about it. I've only come across this energy once maybe twice during my life as an angel. I believe it is a dream fae, and if that is the case we might have a problem.
No!
No!
No!
The three said in unison. Torra couldn't help but get excited at this news about Rem. But extremely worried about Amiera. She had no doubts her friend could handle herself, but not against thousands. Backing away slowly she made her way back to her sister and Mikal to tell them what she had over heard.

Toma smashed through the wall. He looked at the Fallen that grabbed Remonne. "Worthless incest." He rushed toward them with blinding speed as he transformed back in to his mortal body and ripped off the Fallen's head. "Are you alright Remonee?" He said as he turned around and through the Fallen's head to the ground.

Remonee was shaking as she hugged him. She was grateful he had saved her and she nodded to answer his question. The necklace that was taken from her lay in two pieces on the floor. With a sigh she picked it up and fused it with ice before putting it on. *Thank you Toma.*
Mikal was on his feet when she returned. He had gotten a message from Amiera and had worry in his eyes. "The Summer Throne is under attack, We will have to fight our way back into the Palace. First thing, lets clear out my home. It seems we have help arriving." He said as Golden Wolves formed behind him. "The Archangel Gabriel sent us his hounds."

Terra moved a few steps away from the wolves. She may be half human but angelic creatures still made her skin crawl. But she grinned none the less. "Oh I am so ready. Are we sneaking still or are we going in full throttle?" She pressed a button on the bottom of her sword, and it split in to two swords.
Torra looked at the wolves when she got back and cringed. "I'm happy for the extra help but I'll stay over here." One of the wolves growled at her but didn't move or seem to be mad, just uncomfortable as the two demon girls clearly were. "I'm sure you've gotten a message by now, but the Summer Kingdom is their next target and they've arrived. But Rem seems to be keeping them from attacking full force. Until he is gone I don't think they are going to do much more than trash the place and attack her fae." She glanced around remembering she hadn't told them where the information had come from. "Oh, I uh heard some fallen talking on my way down. Three of them were talking about 'Mother'" she air quoted "knowing what she is doing. That wouldn't be Amieras fallen mother would it? Stupid question I know."
After a moment, "So what's the plan?"

Mikal had a wicked grin on his blood-streaked face. "The plan is simple. If it is a fallen, kill it. The hounds will do their job. As soon as I have reclaimed my throne we head back to Amiera. She needs us soon." He said, sending the pack of golden wolves in. He loaded a large arrow in his crossbow and fired it at the wall of the palace, slicing the cables holding the gates shut. "I have Fallen to kill. And some of them are going to lose their pretty little wings." He growled.

Once the gates were open Terra chuckled "Time to go!" and bolted down the hill chopping fallen in three before they knew what happened. Adrenalin pumping she was at the doors of the Dark Palace. Keeping guard were two very large fallen. They started toward her and she cut one down but the other slashed her chest open shoulder to shoulder. Gasping in pain she dropped to the ground.
Before he could cut her the rest of the way Torra ran at him full force and sent him sprawling backwards. She shot six arrows at him, it wasn't needed but this was her sister.
Terra looked up, becoming dizzy from lack of blood. Her sister had red eyes with golden centers. Her cheeks had three streaks of blue on each cheek and it looked like her nails and teeth had grown. But she was crying.
"Terra! Why didn't you wait?!" She dropped to her knees hands shaking, she looked shocked and nervous. "You've got to tell me what mom told you to keep me alive."
Terra couldn't speak without slurring her words so she sent the information into Torras head. Moments passed before her pain started to ease. She looked down and saw the wound was closed, but she couldn't move, she lost too much blood. "Torra, I can't be much help at the moment. Follow Mikal and the wolves and I'll follow shortly in twenty minutes or so. I can't move much from lack of blood. But before you leave, move me so the fallen wont find me."
Torra nodded. "We don't have time for goodbyes. So I'll move you and then I'm going. Hopefully there aren't as many inside like the ones out here. I am happy you aren't dead."
Torra pushed the palace doors open, the large entrance hall was void of fallen, but she still kept to the walls. She smelled the air and followed the strongest scent of blood to a set of red wood doors. She placed her ear against the door and heard a female laugh. It sent chills down her spine.

A pretty female dark Summer Fae appeared near Terra and began to heal her. She had the eyes and hair of a dark Fae and smelt like a demon as well. It was silent as the girl worked to fix Terra before she lost too much blood.
Mikal dropped his glory, showing his black leather clothing and huge bone and skin wings. The wolfs fanned out, taking the corridors and rooms, slaughtering the Fallen silently. He touched Torra's shoulder and motioned for her to follow him with the rest of the wolves. He led them up a staircase through a side door, and they found themselves on a dark balcony in a ballroom. At least two thousand Fallen were below them. A woman who looked a lot like Amiera sat on the Dark Fae throne made of bones. Mikal glared, wanting to rip that wings off the woman. "The leader is mine." He whispered to Torra.

Torra looked down at the thousands of fallen. The woman sitting on the throne was beautiful. "That's her mother isn't it?" she whispered. "How do we take them all out? Surely the four of us can't kill all of them by ourselves."

Mikal gave her a soft kiss on the cheek. "Don't worry." He said. The pack of Gabriel's hounds multiplied as they poured into the room from other doors. The fallen went crazy. The wolves started to tear their wings off and turn the Fallen to dust. Mikal vaulted over the railing, landing in front of the throne. He prayed Torra would cover him from her spot above as he approached the Mother.
The Fallen Mother looked at him and stood, pulling out he own black sword. "I shall have fun ripping off your wings Princeling." She growled.
Mikal ducked as she swung at him and moved behind her, grasping her wings tightly and earning a painful scream from the woman. "You shall pay for what you have done to my mother and to every Fae you have harmed."

From her post on the balcony, she began knocking arrows and let them fly. Fallen that the wolves had wounded were hit and didn't move. She fired at fallen trying to stop Mikal from finishing the job of ripping off her wings.
By the hundreds the wolves tore apart the fallen army. Torra was growing tired, she'd never fired so many times in a row. When her attention went back to the Mother and Mikal she noticed a weird group of moving shadows on the wall behind them. She fired an arrow at them and it looked as though she pinned it in place. "Mikal, Love, I understand you want revenge and justice, but if you could hurry up so we could get back that would be wonderful!" She shouted over all the commotion below her.
Terra wondered how long she had been passed out before she woke to a pretty dark fae looking down at her. "He..hello." she looked down at her chest, there was no pain. Her head had cleared as well. "Did you heal me?"

Mikal held tightly to the wings of the Fallen as he kicked her away. Blood coated the room as the rest of the Fallen turned to red ashes. The wings in his hands disintegrated and he fell back, landing on his throne. His wounds healed and his power amplified as the palace cleaned itself and repaired. A new statue was in the corner of the room. It was the last Dark Queen. Her body had been buried with magic. A crown of thorns rested on his head as he sat. The throne next to him was for his queen and it sat untouched as he sighed. "Torra. Lets go get Terra and go." He said as the wolves left.
The girl nodded and stood, helping Terra up. It was now obvious that she was with child. She gave a short nod. "What is your name?" She asked.
