The sun casts a bright orange glow over the ruins of the temple of the seven. The archangels and the other angels are gathered around the large, charred remains of the temple, looking around in awe and confusion. Where the temple had once stood, there was now nothing but rubble and debris.
The angels began to pick through the wreckage, searching for any sign of who had set off the explosion or what had caused it. They all work diligently, though their eyes betray a sadness at the destruction of such a sacred building.
As they work, one angel suddenly stops and points to something in the rubble. Everyone quickly gathers around. Lying in the rubble is a small, metallic cylinder, its surface slightly charred from the explosion. An archangel carefully picks it up and shows it to the others, they immediately recognize it as an energy explosive container.
"It looks like we have the 'what', " one of the archangels says, clenching his fists. "This was not an accident."
The others nod in agreement, their faces full of anger and determination. They all know that whoever is responsible has committed a grave crime, and act of treason, and must be found and brought to justice.
The angels continue the search, sifting through the rubble with a single-minded determination. All of them have a feeling that they were getting closer to finding out who had set off the explosion and why.
Suddenly, one of the angels notice a piece of paper crumpled up in a corner. He carefully picks it up and begins to unfold it. As he reads the words written on it, his face goes pale. It is a note from the angels responsible, demanding freedom, and the ability to choose their own paths.
The angel quickly shows the note to the other angels, who all understand the significance. They know that this group of angels have been behind the explosion and that they must be found and stopped before they cause any more destruction or hurt anyone.
The angels begin the search more vigorously, ready to find the angels and make sure that justice is served. They work together, their determination to find the culprits with every passing moment.

Blaine is checking the bulletin board at headquarters, he hopes to not have a job to do right now. With what just happened, he feels he would be too distracted to properly take care of a charge. To his luck, the board looks empty for him. He sighs in relief and walks outside. His mind still filled with the thoughts of the temple exploding. Images of seeing the archangels and angels going inside the temple if he hadn't stopped them. Oh God, they would have been killed! Klein I thought you said no one would be hurt. He thinks.
As Blaine leans against a wall outside of headquarters thinking, he notices Amelia arrive and a smile quickly forms on his face. His head fills with happiness, and love for Amelia. Then changes to dark thoughts as images of Amelia being tortured, and/or killed begin to flood his mind. I can't let anything happen to Amelia.
As Amelia begins to walk towards the entrance, she looks over at Blaine, "Oh hey Blaine!" She says with a very wide smile and a look on her eyes to express how much she loves him. But as she looks at him, she notices fear and worry in his eyes. "What's wrong?" She asks.
"What? Oh nothing, I'm good... Just hanging out relaxing, enjoying my time since I have no job to do for now," He replies.
"I sense there is something bothering you, is it about us?" She asks worried that he has had a change of heart.
Blaine sees the worry on her face and his chest tightens as he feels he is hurting her by making her worry about them. "Is not about us, my feelings for you will never change," he says in a low voice to keep anyone from hearing, "there is just... umm... Do you trust me?"
Amelia gets a confused look on her face but responds, "Of course I trust you, what is it?"
Blaine looks around, he doesn't feel safe talking here. "Let's meet where we learned about each other, I'll tell you then. He says.
Amelia looks inside, "I have to check the board and see if I have a job to do first, but yes I will meet you there." She replies. "Give me a minute to check."
Amelia goes inside to check the board. Blaine continues to lean against the wall thinking about everything that has happened up until now. He sure has gotten in too deep on this and fears the worst. Amelia comes out after a few minutes, "I'm sorry Blaine, I have a job to do, I'll meet you in 3 hours, okay?" She says with a sad look on her face.
"It's okay, I'll meet you there then," He replies.
She says her goodbyes and flies off going through a portal to Earth to care for her current charge. Blaine goes back inside and checks the bulletin board again, still no job for him. Three archangels step into headquarters, Michael, Gabriel, and Raphael. They look right at Blaine and walk over to him. "Blaine, guardian angel class 2, come with us," orders Michael as the three of them gather around him. They usher him upstairs and into a grey room with nothing but a table and a chair in the center. They lock the door and order him to sit. Klein happens to be heading out of headquarters as he sees Blaine walking upstairs with the archangels and quickly heads out with a purpose.

Gabriel is leaning against the wall in front of Blaine with his arms crossed. Raphael is standing in front of the door facing Blaine, arms also crossed. They both have stern looks on their faces. They seem determined to get to the bottom of the situation. Michael is pacing back and forth in front of Blaine, stroking his beard thinking of a way to start his interrogation.
"Blaine, how did you know something was going to happen at the temple?" Michael asks.
Blaine looks at Michael and the others, "I already told you, I just had a bad feeling. I could sense something was off." He replies.
Michael walks over to the table, leans over and holds himself with his fists on the table. "I know there is more to this than you are letting on, nobody has feelings for no reason, tell us what you know," he says in a more direct, stern voice.
"I'm telling you, I don't know anything. I really just felt something was wrong," Blaine says desperately trying to convince him.
Michael walks around the table and leans over next to him and whispers in his ear, "Tell me who is behind this, I will protect you, you have nothing to fear." He sounded genuine, but Blaine cannot take any chances. He is afraid for Amelia and cannot live with himself if something happened to her for talking. He just sits there and does not respond.
Michael slams the table right in front of him, Blaine jumps in his chair startled, his heart now beating faster. "You are hiding something, I know it!"
"What were you doing at the temple of the forgotten?" Gabriel asks, remembering the time he ran into Blaine at the temple of the forgotten. Blaine had said he was just checking the place out.
Blaine looks at Gabriel, he had forgotten that Grabriel had seen him there, "I was paying my respects to a former guardian angel, Louis. We both started as guardians around the same time. He had gone on a mission on Earth to deal with some demons and never returned." He explains.
Gabriel's eyes widened in surprise, "I'm sorry, I didn't know. But why didn't you tell me that the first time? You said you were just checking the place out." He asks.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNfLHUIiJyA

"I... I don't know, I guess I wasn't thinking straight," Blaine responds.
Michael then says, "Okay, Okay, I get you might have had a reason for the temple of the forgotten, but how do you explain this..." He pulls out a portable monitor and plays a recording of Blaine leaving a back room at headquarters and about thirty minutes later, a group of angels, Klein included, leave the same room. "No one ever goes in that room, what were you doing there with those angels?"
Blaine's eyes widen, he had no idea he had been seen in that area. "I had gone there to see what that room was. I had noticed it before and just wanted to know what it was used for." He quickly explains.
"What about the other angels?" Michael asks.
"I didn't see anyone there; I didn't get too far into the room before I decided I shouldn't be there. I didn't know anyone was there." Blaine replies.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ48Av46O0XF

Michael stares at Blaine, trying to figure him out. Raphael steps up and asks, "You were missing for nearly 24 hours after missing on a charge call which could have ended up costing the life of your charge. I saw you leaving the temple of the seven after being missing all that time. And then not too long after, you are saving us from being caught in the explosion?" His voice grows louder as he asks about the events at the temple.
Blaine starts wringing his hands on his lap, heart beating so fast it feels like it's going to pop out of his chest. "I... I see how that all seems... But.... As I said before, I don't remember anything during the time I went missing. I just woke up at the temple and left to go back to headquarters."
Raphael slams his fist on the table, "How convenient! No memories of events that could explain what happened to you and your connection to the event at the temple, you are a disgrace to yourself and your fellow guardian angels." He says in a loud, almost yelling manner.
Michael walks over to Raphael and put his arm in front of him, "It's okay, step back, we'll figure this out." He tells him in a calm voice to get him to relax. Raphael walks back over to the door and stands there staring at Blaine.
"Blaine, guardian angel class 2, we will get to the bottom of this. You are not leaving this room until we have more information and figure out what to do with you." Michael says.
He then turns to Gabriel and Raphael, "Go find the angels in that footage and bring them in for questioning. We need to stop them before they try anything else."
Gabriel and Raphael nod and step out of the room to go locate the others. Michael looks at Blaine once again, "For your sake and your mentor Jonas' sake, I hope we find something to exonerate you of this." He turns around and walks out of the room locking the door behind him.
As Blaine sits in the room by himself, a message comes through into his mind, "Blaine, you better keep you mouth shut." Klein's voice said and images of Amelia laying on the ground in the room he was kept when they took him from the library. Feelings of fear and anger course through Blaine's veins and he loses control of his emotions. He flips the table across the room screaming in anger.
