Later on, Cain found out that he couldn't 'die'. To be more correct, he would die and then come back. He became more and more spiteful of everything. That was until he saw Abel during one of his reincarnation. He felt life spring up inside of him once more. The world didn't seemed to be so dark and dreary.

Trying to get close to Abel, he noticed something along side him. An angel. Seeing what it was, Cain didn't feel bothered. He tried to approach Abel but was received with a terrified look and rejection. It hurt him. After spending centuries alone and now finally finding his lover once again, Cain felt as if Abel plunged a knife deep into his heart.

Abel ran and Cain would chase. This was how they lived for a very long time. As he spent his time chasing, Cain gained a companion along the way, Asher Lemmlein. He was the only other person that Cain would ever trust to watch his back. The more time he spent chasing Abel, the more he discovered and the further his hatred of the 'holy' beings became. Not wanting to restrain himself any longer, he decided to slaughter these beings. One after one they fell, bursting into golden flames and returning back to the earth. Cain spared no one.

Asher and him had got acquainted with rivals of the Heavenly realm and were supplied with countless ways of desecrating those creations. He was finally able to vent out his frustrations against this hypocritical world and the system in which it functions. But the more he chased, the more Abel struggled and decided to run.

Now seeing this angel... No. Cherubim in front of him, he realized that not all of were corrupted inside. But this did not lessen the bitter displeasure that had developed in his very soul. It built a structure inside of him. He opened his mouth, "I will agree, but you must hold your end of the bargain, Uriel."

The corner his lips faintly curved upwards, "My words will be upheld, do not worry Son of Adam."

After Uriel disappeared from the space, Cain turned to look at the mutilated corpse of Asher. Never did he think in a million years that Asher was a double agent. He laughed at his own ridiculous and carelessness, they higher beings above really love to play with other's hearts and feelings. He stumbled over and kick the corpse, "Freaken bastard..."

After leaving the portal, Uriel had to revert back to his expressionless face and monotonous voice. Only inside of that space was it that he would be able to break the OOC. He had spent the last of his points to purchase, a temporary use of the 'Evil Eye of Secrecy'. It's whole cost was 1 million points. Uriel couldn't get the full version and only purchased a year worth of its time. For what he paid, it would be worth it in the end. It was a dimensional plane that is separated from all realms and could only be accessed by it's owner. Inside, the owner would become like a God. Everything bending to the owner's will.

Even if it was a separated dimensional plane, there was still a downside to it. It could not overrule the 'rules' of the world. If one tried to, the 'rules' would penalize the the disruptor.

He made his way back to his dorm room. The room was still as quiet as when he had first left it. Looking at the three figures laying on the bed in different positions, Uriel walked over and lifted Abel into his arms. He cast a light spell over the two, who were still out cold and left the room once more.

Back in the Evil Eye, Uriel had returned and laid Abel onto the ground. Cain's eyes followed Abel's body intensely. His body had just fully healed but he could help but tremor as he reached out to touch the person that he so longed for. He could feel the warmth underneath his fingers and he gave a small laugh. Warm droplets of tears rolled down his cheeks. It was real. Everything was real, he wasn't dreaming. Abel was finally within his reach.

He lifted Abel gently into his arms and cradled him. The last time he could recall touching Abel was back in their first life. His aroma wafted through the air into his lungs. He took a deep breath of it, so nostalgic. It reminded him of when he embraced Abel in his arms and they were still able to look at each other with smiles on their lips. After a few moments, Uriel spoke up, "He's awakening. I suggest you let go of him, Son of Adam."

Cain understood what Uriel was inferring to, he gently set Abel back down onto the ground. He took small strides and stood about four feet from Uriel and his lover. He knew that there was going to be a big reaction from Abel once he woke up, that was how it has been. Seconds trickles by, as they look at the slowly stirring Abel.

His eyelashes trembled and they slowly opened. He looked around confused to how he ended up here. They had just been sitting on the bed in Uriel's room. Seeing Uriel in his angelic form, Abel rubbed his eye sleepy totally unaware of the gaze from the third person inside of the space. Abel murmured, "Uriel?"

As if acting instinctively after so many years of avoiding Cain, Abel turned his head and spotted his figure, "..."

His face paled and he scrambled backwards towards Uriel. How can this be? Why am I here? Why is he here? How did he get here? His mind was in a state of panic and his eyes were filled with fear and angst. Clearly visible pain and hurt was written across Cain's face.

Abel's lips trembled, "I-I can't be here. I'm not supposed to be here..."

Uriel's eyes glowed as he read Abel's thoughts, but he needed Abel to voice it out loud for Cain to hear. Uriel, "Why?"

Abel shook his head, "I can't say it. You know that I can't...."

Uriel raised his hand and placed it to the middle of Abel's forehead, "Xekleidoma¹."

Abel closed his eyes and groaned in pain. He doubles over onto the ground and clutched his head. Cain's expression changed to that of worry and concern. He wanted to step forward and comfort Abel, but he held himself back multiple times. He didn't want his Abel to afraid of him and push him away.

Abel suddenly looks up at Cain, his eyes were as clear and calm as spring water. The look of aversion and repulsion was gone from those round eyes. He reached his hand out, "Cain."
