Moment's ago in the bathroom...

~Adrestia's PoV~

"We need to talk death" the man said. I sighed like I said I had been awaiting this since myself and Crowley's date. I was already lacking before it all so of course our relationship would be enough to push my 'performance' over the metaphorical edge. I turned round to see none other than the angel Gabriel standing, adjusting his cuffs without taking his eyes off me.

"Ah, Gabriel what a" I pause and think of the word, "pleasant surprise! You know I was just thinking abou-" he cuts me off, I was lying anyway, this surprise was anything but pleasant.

"Cut the crap Death we both know why I am here" He spits, despite going by the name Adrestia, he always insisted on calling me death, I hated him for this. I clear my throat and walk over to the bin drying my hands.

"Do we now, please enlighten me oh holy one!" I say, my voice laced with sarcasm as I take a bow to the pompous angel in front of me.

"I'll put this as simply as I can, you've become weak and let's just say we can't have the boss knowing about this, wouldn't stand for it. Sooo in order to keep you in check, I've been sent down to this diseased planet to collect you for instant training" He snarkily states. I glare at him, what the hell I don't need training! I've been doing this job for years nobody can tell me how to do it! I'm the fucking grim reaper, there has only ever been one of them and only ever will be and that's this bitch!

"Training?" I scoff "Please darling, nobody can do my job better than me. I'm the only one who can do it remember? So if you think for a second I'll just stop what I'm doing and pop over to heaven for a short wee while well sir, you are dreadfully mistaken." I snarl, slowly stalking him like an animal would its prey.

"Death, come now. Don't make this harder than it needs to be we can't waste any time or we shall get in the way of the divine plan" he gulps, clearly my presence was unnerving him.

"You're dicing with Death here Gabe. If I were you'd I would go back to heaven while you still can." I stop behind him, whispering into his ear. "Would be a real shame if I had to cut off one of your wings huh? Or worse, send you home in a body bag." I feel him shudder, I doubt he even knows what a body bag is, the ignorant bastard, but I'm sure he can figure it out from the context. "Tell me, if you were to disappear, would you be missed? Or would you simply be replaced by another stuck-up angel with an unbreakable work ethic?" I hiss, he seems lost for words, unsure of his next move. I've got him under my thumb. "You see that's the difference between you and me, I'm irreplaceable, you on the other hand" I smirk, throwing bag to the floor "not so much" an evil laugh escapes me, I can't help it this bastard is insane.

"That's enough!" He yells, snapping his fingers making two other Angels appear, "what the-" I start, but for once I'm too slow and the grab me pulling me into a tight restraint before I could even begin to process the situation. I try to use my dark abilities to become one with the shadows and slink away but they don't seem to work. I begin to struggle harder realising the trouble I was in. "Let me go you arsehole! I haven't done anything wrong!" I shout, thrashing in the angel's arms trying to break free. Gabriel walks over to me, slow clapping in the process, infuriating me even more.

"The ineffable plan shall go ahead Death, remember you'll have to choose a side. If I have to die for Heaven to win then so be it, it would be an honour. I have a side, you need to choose yours, that demon of yours, he's doomed. It would be for the greater good if you left him alone" He smirks, placing a hand on my shoulder. Wait, he knows about Crowley and I? Does he know about our relationship?

"You leave him outta this Angel or you'll be the next soul I reap" I snarl, throwing his hand off my shoulder. "How cute, you actually think he's important! You actually think he would love you! Please look in the mirror dear you're death! You thrive off of killing people, innocent people. You create trouble wherever you go" he continues to list my 'flaws' and I hang my head. "Look at me!" He yells, punching me right in my face. I felt the warm liquid start to rush from my nose. Didn't know ol' Gabe had it in him. I wasn't going to let him get to me that easily. I wasn't going out without a fight. I begin to chuckle, it grows and grows into a full-blown hysterical fit.

"What is this? Why are you doing that you should be ashamed, stop that at once." he yells, gaining shrugs from his companions.

"You clearly don't understand love do you?" I smirk, looking up at him, my face a mess with blood trickling down my face. He punches me again yelling silence.

"See you can punch me all you like, try and break me. Play with my emotions for all I care but it won't matter, I'll just come out stronger" I chuckle, my lip had burst, red oozing out of it but like I said, it didn't matter. As long as Crowley was safe I didn't care. I didn't care.

"STOP LAUGHING!!!" He yells, smacking me every second, "You're *SMACK* wasting *SMACK* my *SMACK* time!" He then drags me over to the sink, throwing my head down onto the cold porcelain surface. My eyes prick with tears but I wasn't letting this dipshit see my cry, I hardly felt the pain anymore. After a while you become numb.

"Take her away" He yells "this isn't a movie you know, can you be less dramatic danke" I splutter, looking down to see a blood stained floor, I bled that much wow. "come now, let us leave this wretched world" He says, and just like that we were gone, all I could see what a bright white light, how clique...

~Crowley's PoV~

Blood, all I could see was a pool of blood in the middle of the bathroom, her blood. I look over to the sinks to find one smashed, it too covered in the red substance, it was her blood. "Good gracious Crowley I'm-" I silence him, its Aziraphale, he gets the message and leaves the room. I'd rather be alone right now. I've lost her. I was too slow and I couldn't protect her. Now somebody has her, somebody has my Adrestia, my Addie, my love and I have no idea where to find her. I promised her I wouldn't leave her, that she'd be safe and we could save the world together and now I stand alone, in a blood covered bathroom, with no-one. The only person I have ever loved is gone. I feel the salty tears run down my face, still able to hear her sarcatic voice "demon's don't cry" it was a joke she said many years ago before we were together but still she was wrong, this demon does...
