Wrath
Wrath followed his foolish adversaries path, plucking the bullets from his gun out of the air and disintegrating then as the fire touched them. He set himself to meet Justice's charge, the change in motion catching him by surprise. Wrath recovered easily and stopped the beam of light with his own sword of fire. The two forces clashed and hissed as they met. Wrath was sure he had physical strength over Justice, but speed would be a problem.
"Who cares what they are protecting. They met us here, we'll kill them here. Shoot this son of a b***h." The rage coursing through Wrath started to appear on Saladin's body. A crack here, a scar there as the heat ruptured the molecular build of the human's body.

Ysane Ixil
Ysane followed Justice "into the breach," using him as a proper diversion to get past Envy's gun. She ran through Wrath's hell fire without a thought and took stock of the situation immediately. Justice was busy grappling with Wrath, and Envy was taking a pot shot at his knees. Mistake. Ysane turned to attack Envy, bringing her swords up and then down again, with all her strength onto the girl's gun; it snapped cleanly in two. Figuring her to be neutralized enough, Ysane turned back to Justice and Wrath and moved to assist him, sending her swords into a whirling attack; amazingly, the sin managed to keep up enough to stop himself from being hacked into pieces.
She didn't notice Envy's shriek of rage as she jumped onto Ysane, her hands more then brushing the Virtue. Ysane cried out and twisted out of Envy's reach. She panted, eying the sin. Tricky little leech, isn't she?

Envy
Envy grunted as two of Justice's bullets found their home in her shoulder and lower torso; it would hurt in a minute, she could tell, but for now, there was nothing. The sin brought her rifle up to bear, and squeezed off two rounds. They hit their target with unnatural accuracy: Justice's knees. She knew Justice could keep his body alive, even with mortal wounds (at least for a little while), so it would've been a pointless gesture to shoot his torso, even through the heart. At least this way, the Virtue would be slowed somewhat.
She heard a noise and turned, dropping to a squat just as Ysane jumped through Wrath's protective flames towards her. Envy was forced to use her beloved M16 as a block when Ysane brought the pair of her swords into a strong down swing towards her face; as it was, the rifle was barely enough and she had to throw herself backwards.
"Oh, b***h, you're going to pay for that; that was my favorite gun."
Ysane couldn't care less; she'd already dismissed Envy mentally and was working her weapons against Wrath's defenses. Somehow, he'd managed to call up another flaming sword; it was matching hers, stroke for stroke. Envy lept towards the unobservant Ysane, keeping an eye on the Virtue's quick swords. Envy wouldn't have put it past the Virtue to have eyes in the back of her head; she dashed forward and grabbed at Ysane, eagerly drinking in the virtue's essence. She allowed herself a grin, even as the virtue pulled away; Envy had leveled the playing field a bit.

Lucifer
Lucifer trotted back towards the table, but the house phone rang, and he diverted to the speaker phone in the room. The first words out of the person on the line, President is dead, Vice President missing, Speaker Dead, You are the President as President Pro Tempore of the Senate. Secret services is on the way to your apartment, less than ten minutes. His eyes bugged, his mouth dried out. They could find him here with two nude women, one just twelve years old and his wife.
"I'll be ready." Lucifer snapped his fingers, his new bodyguard walked in.
"Escort the blond off the premises, put her up in a hotel, we'll call for you two later. Vicki get dressed, we have clothing in the closet, your cover is that your my fiance's niece. We'll get some documents written up." Lucifer turned to Lilith.
"Well looks like some of Wrath's followers managed to blow a hole in the white house, the President and the Speaker were having a meeting. The Joint Chief is gone. You heard though. Time to get to work, and looks like you'll get that boning on the desk sooner." He chuckled as he walked into the closet and then walked back out, he was wearing a impeccably clean suit, a red tie on.
"I'll be sworn in on the Chopper and then I have to clean this mess up. We'll take residence in the D.C. apartment and give the former first lady time to leave the White House. How's it feel to be First Lady of the most powerful country on the planet?" Lucifer chuckled, cause that statement was about to be true in more ways than one. He had plans drawn up, technology that would surpass the old, funding in the works to bring the nation out of debt, a million things to put the nation on top and turn it into a sinful cesspool harking back to the golden age of Rome. Lucifer would be crowned Emperor and then the real war would begin. Thank you wrath, you have been useful one last time. He kissed Lilith hungrily and then there came the knock.

Wrath
The noise, fury and power soon drew the attention of the LVPD. The four of them didn't care, but the arrival of semi-decent cops bolstered the power Justice could call. Wrath was driven back despite the fact his opponent was severely wounded, knees gone, one arm hanging on by some sinew. ******** pigs. That's all it took though and a gang war erupted around the cops. A new wave of rage fueled Wrath to new speed and ferocity of attacks, and Justice was on those destroyed knees, barely keeping the two blazing swords of fire from his face.
"The human race doesn't care about Justice any more. They are selfish and sinful. For every one of your followers I can muster hundreds. We will win this war and then We will rule this planet as we should have from the beginning. Now go say high to Micheal, tell He's next." Wrath pulled one blade back and thrust it forward.

Justice
Justice fought against many foes, daemons spawned by his own rival here, men and women possessed by these same hedonistic fools. He had lost and triumphed and had never doubted the word and law of God, he didn't now. As the sword drew back, a whisper in his ear told him to go left. Justice rolled left and sprang up, his path clear to Envy. Wrath was forgotten as he charged the voluptuous women, still locked in a fight with his counterpart. The single beam of light extended from his hand and he knew at least one of the sins would die tonight.
"To your left." The call was to Strength to get her out of the way.

Lilith
Almost when it was too late, Lilith remembered to glamour herself to look like the normally fabulous woman she was, but without the hassle of actually dressing. She broke of their kiss and turned to face the new comers, a smile already plasterered on her face.
"Good evening, Gentleman, can I help you?"
The secret service soldiers ignored her completely; one moved around the room, carefully examining it for any potential bombs. The other held his .45mm pistol low, but Lilith noted the safety was off.
"Sir, we need to get you out of here now. Anything you will need with be waiting for you on the other side."

Envy
Envy was surprised and turned to follow Ysane when she suddenly dove to the left; she assumed that the Virtue was just trying to feign attack her. Imagine her surprise then, to see Justice's beam of sheer, hot, holy light. Envy cursed and tried to dive out of its path; as it was, it took out a chunk in her side. She didn't even have time to acknowledge the pain as Ysane recovered herself and moved to attack the sin again. Envy rolled to the side of Ysane's swords and then rolled back, using her slight weight to pulled the metal from Ysane's hands. It was a simply matter then to reach up and grab the Virtue, pulling more and more of Ysane's essence into herself.

Ysane Ixil
Ysane did as Justice suggested and vacated the area quickly before turning and moving to attack the fallen Sin. She stabbed down at Envy, but was surprised when Envy was quick enough (despite the massive hole in her side) to doge; her weapons were pulled from her hands and then she had a much worse problem on her hands, when Envy grabbed her. As hard as she tried, Ysane just couldn't pull free. Second by by second, she was growing weaker. She dropped to her knees, unable to stand anylonger.
"Jus...tice..."

Lucifer
Lucifer listened to the security briefing the head of the Service gave. His former boss was also dead, they were ushered out into a massive black limo and were surrounded not by other unmarked vehicles, but Stryker Assault Transports. Ten heavily armed Green berets in each of the four massive trucks.
"They really rattled your cages. So up to the airport, onto the Chopper. I'm guessing six Apaches, and at least ten Cobras." The man who was now his protector didn't laugh. Vicki was wide eyed with excitement, like any twelve year old should be, the story was her parents had died recently and Lilith was her aunt and godmother.
'This is going to get monotonous quickly. Good thing I can sound proof a room with some exertion of power.' Lucifer chuckled as the little communique passed between him and Lilith.

Wrath
Wrath stopped Justice before he could strike at Envy again. Both blades to his throat in a scissor lock.
"That is two out of three Strength. Looks like you two will be-" The twin swords vanished as blood spurted from Saladin's mouth. A single beam of light was pushed through his stomach. <******** you!" Flames burst from every part of Wrath's face straight onto Justice's back. The virtue jumped away from the extreme heat, fire catching to his clothing.
"En..Vy." Wrath dropped to his knees, hands held over the hole in his stomach. Saladin was dying, but Wrath fought to keep the vessel alive. Thousands of souls in the sixth pit of hell burned to ashes as Wrath drew all of his power to the front. The hole sealed, but Saladin would need time to heal.

Justice
Salvador's body was charred heavily in places, but the flames were out, he knocked Envy off of Strength bodily and scooped his comrade up. The Harley was forgotten, and better form of transport erupting from his back.
"This isn't over. The warriors of God never surrender, never forget. You shall be vanquished." Justice hot up and out back towards the blazing Neon of Vegas.
"Are you okay Ysane? We should have killed Wrath, he is just to strong. No don't think about that right now. You have to recover." They were moving faster than a jet fighter, sonic boom following them over the city, finally Justice dropped down on the roof of the MGM.

Ysane Ixil
"I'm...I'm fine..."
Ysane closed her eyes, and rested heavily against Justice. That dammed Envy! She stumbled to her feet when they landed; it took all of her remaining strength just to stand up, let along in one place. Ysane took several calming breathes and took stock of her situation; in just a few moments of contact with the Sin's hand, she'd lost nearly fifteen pounds.
"We need...to set an ambush point. Out and away from the city. Away from the sins."

Envy
Envy caught Wrath as he started to fall; the hole in her side was slowly starting it heal as well. It would take some time, but it would heal. And thanks to the vast majority of Ysane's essence, she wasn't feeling it. Envy picked Wrath back up to his feet and supported him easily.
"How is it? Your form, it'll live?"

Lilith
'Can't wait.' Lilith sat beside Vicki, holding the girl protectively. Mindlessly, she stroke the twelve-year old's hair, thinking on all the horrible, nasty things she'd be doing to her when they got to their apartment that evening. Lilith stirred a few minutes later.
"My clothes, my things. I will be able to get them sent to us, in D.C., right, Agent?"
It wasn't close to being a question. The agent didn't blink.
"Of course, miss. As soon as they are passed through security, we can send them to the White House."
Lilith sat back in the seat, pouting. The things didn't matter much to her, to be honest, but she had an obligation to fulfill.
