"Rhain! Hey, Rhain!" Running to catch up to her, "Hey? Didn't you hear me calling you?" She looks at him and nods. "I could hear you perfectly well actually." He opens his mouth to speak when Nathaniel reaches them, "Arguing again? Forget it, let's go." They start walking and Nathaniel looks to both his sides. "Actually quiet for once. Oh, Lillie went home early to sleep, she's been looking so intensely, that she's forgetting that even if she is immortal, her powers are gone so she needs her rest." Once he finishes speaking it goes back to the silence, "While we're together I want to mention that we haven't found anything perfect about her situations, it's just theories on theories." They reach the gate of their house and Nathaniel walks in ahead, following behind was Rhain, "Why are you ignoring me exactly?" He walks in and she stops, "Because as the Devil's son you're not obliged to tell me the truth." He walks towards her and watches her hair blow in the wind, "Angels are so uneducated about the underworld." Stunned by his words, her head lifts from the ground. "Exactly that, do you think you know about the skies?" His smile becomes unstable, "Perfect obviously." She spins around to look him in the face, "Okay, so let me educate you as you've done for me. Heaven is full of beauty, amazingly tall libraries and towns. The young go to school and angels get assigned jobs depending on their abilities, some are given freedom down on earth others aren't." He shrugs, "Thought as much, you haven't been through the hardship, you've been protected. Really, you should be learning from the humans." He walks past her and she grabs his blazer, "Excuse me if it was so perfect tell me why there are fallen angels? Why do they leave when they can have it all." His eyes dull up, "I don't know. I'm just the Devil's son." He pulls away from her grasp and she walks far behind him.

Hearing the door suddenly open at 7 am. Rhain appears at the door, "Nathaniel. Where are you going?" He looks to her exhausted, "Library, I need to find something that could help me with Lillie." Disappointment strikes in her eyes, "I don't know how you can help her, she's not- she doesn't seem pure of heart." shocked he takes a step towards her. "Do you know something?" She shakes her head motionless, "No. I don't." He closes his eyes and nods making a quiet "Hmph" Noise, then he walks out the door and her eyes soften to release her sadness. "Why don't you trust her?" She looks up at him, "I just don't have any good feelings towards her, I- I can't explain it." He nods, "I had a very nice conversation with her yesterday, I like her." She walks to her bedroom and places her hand on the handle, "Yes. I can see that you and Nathaniel are both fond of her!" Surprised, he leans on the bannister, "Did you happen to see me talking with her yesterday?" She keeps her head facing the door, "No- I didn't." The tone of her voice was all over the place, "I see, then can I ask what caused the fight Tuesday?" She twisted her hand to open the door, "It wasn't a fight. As the Devil's son I'm not surprised you get so worked up over such a small thing, you create arguments." Opening the door, he laughs as she steps in.

Later that day Tristan walks onto the balcony and Rhain is standing still watching the sky, "You came to see me?" She turns to face him. "Yeah. I wanted to talk about what happened in the bedroom." He smiles cheekily and then walks towards her to put his right hand on her face, "Before we discuss that I have a favour I've been meaning to ask since Tuesday." She pushes his hand away and instantly becomes upset, "I told you! I never saw you and Lillie together." shaken up by her words he then picks her head up to look him in the eyes, "I know. You already told me, when we were coming home I had something to ask you." Staring deep into his red eyes, "I need to trust you with some information, but I also need you to keep this away from Nathaniel as it's in his best interest." an overwhelming look passes her face, "Okay." He takes her hand and pulls her to the furthest corner of the balcony. "I know how to get everyone's memories back, but I don't know if once I get them back for everyone that Nathaniel is going to turn out to be a good guy. Not just for the Heavens but Hell too."
