Chapter Text

Vaggie flew down to earth

The Seraphim, her commander, got word of some demons going around killing humans and sent a few exorcists to deal with it.

Whenever demons acted up it was exorcists like Vaggie to exterminate them

The angel used her halo to cloak herself as she flew over the city of Los Angeles

The sun was starting to set

As she flew she took in her surroundings

She looked at all the different buildings and vehicles that surrounded her. She read some of the various signs that were everywhere. She was amazed by how flashy everything was.

On the sidewalks were some street performers in all kinds of costumes.

‘I’d probably fit right in with this crowd.’ She thought, putting a hand to her exorcist mask’

Her eyes landed on a man dressed like a pirate, which brought a smile to her face. She wasn’t much of a fan of fantasy and role play but she has always thought pirates were cool.

She took a second to look down at her spear, Plunder, before continuing on

But what had her attention the most were all the people wandering around

Angels rarely interacted with humans

If the world found out about Heaven and Hell order would crumble

But that didn’t stop Vaggie from being fascinated by them

Vaggie slowly came to a stop and hovered over a movie theater just as a family walked out the door

A family of a mother, a father, 4 boys and 1 girl

Vaggie watched as the group talked animatedly on the way to their car

The angel couldn’t help but feel envious of what they had. Because she didn’t have a family

Exorcists weren’t born, they were created. Created to enforce and protect the rules that heaven sees fit. Hence why she was currently demon hunting.

The exorcists are an army not a family

Vaggie was one of the younger exorcist angels. Only being created about 14 years ago. Although age doesn't really matter when you're immortal. Once she’s matured her aging will come to a halt.

Once the family drove off Vaggie shook out of her longing state and continued on

____________________________________________________________________

A couple hours later she found herself in a more rundown part of the city

Just then she heard a gunshot

Flying in the direction of the sound and halted at what she saw

Three Imps standing right by a dead guy, laying on a running motorcycle

In the man’s head was a bullet wound that was still bleeding

“Well that was close.” The imp, who had white scar tissue on half his face, said “Good shooting their Moxx.”

“Thanks sir.” Another imp said, a shotgun in hand

“Can we go now, Blitzø?” Said the third imp, who was female and spoke with a country accent “Moxxie and I have plans tonight.”

“Sure thing, Mill. I’ll give Looney a call.” The imp Blitzø, who seemed to be the boss, said as he pulled out a phone

Realizing they were about to leave she acted

She through Plunder in the direction of the imps and it landed a hit on Blitzø’s phone, causing it to split in half once it hit the ground

The spear became uncloaked when she let go of it, so the imps could see what it was

“That’s an Angel spear, Sir.” Moxxie said, in fear

“We need to get the hell out of here!” Blitzø said

The boss climbed on the dead man’s bike and started it up, his two friends sitting behind. Imps aren’t exactly big creatures so they all fit on their well enough.

And they took off

Picking her spear off the ground she flew in their direction

They were moving from side to side too much for Vaggie to just throw her weapon again so she flapped her wings harder to catch up. Moxxie started blind shooting at her, but their guns can’t do anything to an exorcist.

Getting close enough she slashed at the back tire, causing the bike to spin out of control. Vaggie watched as it sped through a parking lot and crashed through the glass doors of a building.

From here she could hear an alarm go off

Curious, Vaggies eyes searched until she found a sign for this place

“Carmine manufacturing.” She read, under her breath

Flying up to where the bike crashed she peeked inside

It was dark but she could make out what this place was

‘This must be a weapons manufacturing company of some kind.’ She thought

Stepping further inside she saw the biked crashed into a counter

The imps probably opened a portal to hell the second after the crash

‘I should search the building to be sure’. She thought

She ran up to the second floor of the building

While the first floor was more of a store, the second was more of an office space

She opened a few doors revealing some closets and a couple one person offices

Vaggie was about ready to give up on this when something caught her eye

A small pool of crimson, leaking out from under a door she hadn’t checked yet

Getting consumed with worry she removed her mask, turned off invisibility, rushed to the door and pushed it open

Her eyes went wide and her mouth went agape at the sight in front of her

A woman laid on the ground, not moving
