Later that morning, at Azenith’s house, Dylan is at the dining room table with his notes and his Grimoire. He yawns as he writes his notes down on his notepad. Azenith and Jason walk downstairs, yawning. Azenith looks at Dylan.

“I thought you went to bed hours ago?!” Azenith said.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgtcVHeEyu7
“Huh?” Dylan looked up, breaking his focus. “Oh yeah, I did. I couldn’t sleep until I found out Michele’s weakness.”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA8IAATPU2n
“It’s impossible to find his weakness, Dylan. That woman is too powerful to have a weakness.” Jason said.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0lDLzM9t4X
“Negative thinking, Jason. There is! I have a theory that her weakness is electricity and water but that doesn’t make any sense. Lust demons that are sexual demons are prone to electric powers. But water, they can withstand water. Even Holy water from an angel.”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ11vl2g1D67
“What about Fire?” Azenith suggested.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLLvPDHiJWu
“Depends on the levels of fire color but she’s a fire user and Sin demons are prone to fire. ALL FIRES.”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfUJsXgvyPh
“I don’t think so. Carolyn is a wrath demon and she got burned from the explosion from the warehouse.” Jason said.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvM3fvozMWh
“What are you talking about? She didn’t get burned. She was bleeding and scratched up. Probably a couple of broken bones.”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEUFXxErXbD
“I thought she was.”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBGd170hfcT
“ANYWAYS! Dylan, aren’t you an angel yourself?” Azenith asks.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkKo8q6arv9
“Techno Angel. I don’t use my powers that often. I just use my glow discs.” Dylan said.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMC83o7aRDa
“Are there such powers as ‘Angelic powers’?”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa05gSq4Ybz
“Oh yeah, it’s a thing. In fact, when someone is an angel user, Their powers are basically ‘angelical’ depending on the tier of angel they are. Same goes for demon users.”
“I just came up with an idea, have you thought about angelic electricity? Can a lust demon take that kind of power?” Azenith asks. Dylan thinks for a second. His eyes widened as he got an idea came into mind.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmG1ramRk9r
“I haven’t thought about that! AZENITH YOU’RE A GENIUS!” Dylan said. He gets up from his chair and hugs Azenith. Azenith hugs back, chuckling.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmgP3WlsA22
“Did we figure it out?!”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQg58QImfyo
“YES, YES WE DID! OH MY GOD!” Dylan breaks the hug and writes in his notebook.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡerR3rCi22v
“Angelic Electrical powers.” Dylan said, writing it down. “Finally, I found her weakness! Thanks Azenith!”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPwX9Eoughc
“You’re welcome Dylan!”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0NrTzrFQYZ
“Now, I need to tell the rest of the group.”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRf1LLGWnyv
“Does this work for others that aren’t angels?” Jason asks.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡazSo0xl3vi
“It does…Kind of… It takes a lot of power though. Are you guys ready for that kind of power?”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmpDrR0efkG
“If you put it that way, I'm out.” Jason said. Azenith’s tail smacks him.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7fcMZGko3l
“Ow.” Jason moaned. Azenith grabs his hand confidently.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡghoI4GxfHn
“We’re ready” She said, raising her and Jason’s hands high in the air. Jason blushes.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4p5NVW3uHV
“Don’t even think about it.” she demanded. Jason lets go of her hand, sweating nervously. Dylan looks at him, nodding in shame.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbXgztaZmUJ
“Grown ass man.” He said. Dylan grabs his Grimoire and heads towards the staircase up to his room.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJTkMYQFFXN
“Anyways. Should I call Cassandra, Alyssa, and Monica so we can practice this?”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLQd9PH1APC
“Call them please! We need to practice now, Las Vegas is at steak!” Dylan said, walking upstairs to his room.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHUh2zfwm0p
“Okay!” Azenith said. Jason watches Dylan walking upstairs. He looks at Azenith.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVfJOvQ8DEX
“Sooo… What does your hand do other than holding on to mine?” Jason asks. Azenith grabs her phone.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0m0rK2BSmp
“Grabbing my phone and calling Cassandra and Monica. Which you should be doing too, calling Alyssa.” She said, walking away.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ65J5y34gCA
“Right uh..”
Jason grabs his phone, sitting down on the couch. Later on that day, at UMC Hospital, Carolyn walks up to Justine’s room. She knocks on the door. Justine wakes up from the knocking noise. She stretches slowly, trying not to rip the stitches from the wound.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIuEHjuWEGZ
“Come in.” She said, slowly sitting up on the bed, Carolyn opens the door, walking in.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡosg9dwPNmt
“Hey. Justine.”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE1T095bjKv
“Hey..”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVVMDAkQPxQ
“You look tired. Did I come at a bad time?” Carolyn asks.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdlGFTPQheT
“Oh no you didn’t! I took a nap earlier thinking you weren’t going to come. I thought you were busy, you know, being the mayor of this busy twenty-four hour city.”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCWyyc00EZt
“I didn’t really have anything to do but go to meetings and two events in the city. I’m on my lunch break right now. I decided to spend it with you.”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTUo2nM9hnf
“Aww Carolyn, you didn’t have to do that. I don’t want you to neglect eating for a whole hour.” Justine said.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtpcHToSk5f
“It’s alright, don’t worry. I’ll be fine.” Carolyn said, smiling. Justine smiles.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyuRpXxJFAx
“How’s your stomach? Is it healing?” Carolyn continues, sitting down in a chair.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Ys0WlYKFP
“Well…” Justine pushes down the blanket to look at the cuts on her stomach. One of the cuts is already healed and the rest are still healing. “One of them is healing fast and I just got stitches last night.”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3rTnzklq9W
“Must be your Wrath demon powers taking over the healing process.”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuh0Lkn6YVM
“Must be,” Justine pauses. “Wait a minute, how did you know?”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaL8wBOGa0p
Carolyn smiles, “I kind of figured that you are a wrath demon. I can tell by your calm demeanor.”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfg8qnRjJl0
Justine chuckles, “That’s crazy, I didn’t know that I looked calm. Usually, I look so mean to people.”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmuX8G8WEE2
“Not to me, most wrath demons look like that. I even look like that.” Carolyn chuckles. Justine smiles.
“Yeah.” She continues to laugh. “Anyways, I always want to know how my wrath demon powers heal my cuts and wounds. How does that work?”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdeigVz8xQI
“Well, let's put it this way.” Carolyn grabs her dagger, she holds it over her wrist and cuts her wrist. Justine jumped. Blood flows out of the cut, dripping on the floor. She licks her thumb, covers the cut with her saliva and covers the cut with her hand. The cut heals as the heat converts to moisture from the saliva coating the wound. Justine’s eyes widened.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuh45IB5YyT
“Is it just our body heat that is healing the wound?” Justine asks.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLW9HyrJVnN
“Mostly likely it is. It can be something else, air moisture, heat moisture. The summer is crazy when the sun and your sweat heals your cuts and wounds.”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8p06w4DAqm
“Is it just only to wrath demons that can heal themselves or can other demons do that?”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNfxAUfN3GW
“From what I know, It’s only to wrath demons and lust demons. I would look up the Grimoire to find out.”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgvy8o1QWAo
“Ah okay! I can look it up later.” Justine said. Silence roams the room. Justine spoke up. “How’s your day, Carolyn?”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Z4Sl4rKR9
“It went well. I had two meetings, ended up going to my events. I already want to go home. Pretty much had a good day today without Michele and her bullshit.”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJSl0e1R1jF
“That’s good!” Justine said. Carolyn smiles.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV8DWAVktuU
“How are you, Justine? Did your friends come over today?”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUjXxaILZTv
“Cerena did, Raya and Vivian probably will be coming soon after Cerena closes the arcade.”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLlLmZY9Fhf
“Aww… that’s good. How are they anyway?” Carolyn asks.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvb659ZLWXB
“They’re doing alright. Cerena got scared that I died. The same goes for Raya and Vivian. I have to explain what happened.” Justine laughs. Carolyn laughs.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZSSF1TbDI0
“Oh no!” Carolyn continues to laugh. “You have a lot of explaining to do.”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS2eGTW3mOz
“Yeah.” silence roams the room again. Justine looks out the window.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD8nQ0xiXVx
“I don’t like how Michele is treating you Carolyn. Justine spoke up. Carolyn looks up at Justine.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4m7EF0FtDO
“Justine..”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSQYXcXxvVG
“I’m serious. I don’t like how she treats you. She abuses you. not to mention, wants to kill you for absolutely nothing. All for what? Her reign of power over Vegas? She’s willing to take advantage of an elderly lady just to prove what?”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMffmGqmdEt
Carolyn sighs, “Well…I don’t like it either but what can I do? The only thing I can do is sacrifice myself to dismantle her mafia secretly without her knowing.”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZfACwSHJ55
“How can you do that when she’s on your ass 24/7?” Justine asks.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ46A4q8l9ye
“I’m gonna play a game called ‘being a sneaky new yorker’ Las Vegas edition. I made it up but basically i'm going to be on the down low being really sneaky for her not to catch me. Grab everyone that quit Michele’s mafia, the heroes, Oscar, and you if you want to play along. And then find a way to dismantle and end her mafia for good.”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBKKp6LKyCe
“Ooohh!” Justine said, “I want to play. Can I play?”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlfGiVxhPIm
“Sure. I pretty much trust you and for the record, you can beat Michele’s ass pretty good. I need the help that I can get.”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEVeNRRIGwW
“Do you want my friends to help?”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYwndJuDSKo
“They can but I recommend not letting them help out a lot because it can get really deadly and I don’t want you or any of your friends getting really hurt.”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCHJXlir281
“That’s fair… Wait a minute. What do you mean, it can get really deadly?” Justine asks.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5vUkOdHSY7
“The fight isn’t over with her and I. It’s never going to be over until she successfully completes her goal of taking over Nevada or sees me dead. She would be very happy if she can accomplish both.”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX442vdl18b
Justine sighs and nods her head. “We can beat her. We just need to find a weakness in her.”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHNBCcb0OGp
“Justine.”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYs7UoHAR7E
“No listen, everyone has a weak point in their powers. I’m sure she has one.”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoQoMEGjuIC
“Michele doesn’t have a weakness…If I'm not mistaken. I can’t even beat her and lust demons have an electrical weakness.”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeMdmHhcA6N
“Don’t Angels have a certain power to defeat demons such as lust demons?” Justine asks.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl2VkXgU3lW
“Oscar is an angel of Powers and he can’t even defeat her,” Carolyn said, bluntly.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoOhFS1eTfP
“But doesn't he have any angelical powers?”
Carolyn pauses as her eyes widen. “Angelical powers?”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzszVZUTr3G
“Yeah. Angelical Powers. Most angels in Vegas do have that kind of power.”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6VCqgJh0yv
“Hm… I don’t think Oscar uses that kind of power. What is it?”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8QfGohE6B1
Justine grabs their Grimoire from the floor. She opens up the page catered to Angels. She turns to the page explaining the angelical powers. Carolyn gets up and hovers over Justine.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdQVVLyCiS8
“So the Grimoire says that, ‘Angelical powers are a type of high energy power that angels use against their opponent. It can be used with any angel tier power depending on their element of power they had originally given or born with.’ but it also says that it can take your energy if used incorrectly.” Justine explains. Carolyn reads the page, silently. Her eyes widened again.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzGGSuJIrn3
“Wait, can this be used on sin demons?” Carolyn asks.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkA4Rezh7Nn
“Oh yeah. See?” Justine points at a keynote point box. “It can be used on Sin demons. It's like their weak point. Pretty much, we can die if they use it directly on us. Some are lucky to survive. You see why nobody that is a demon goes up to Northern Nevada.”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4DaDdhCVG0
Carolyn laughs, “Okay, that right there is hilarious!” She continues to laugh. Justine laughs with her. “But in all seriousness, We can pretty much figure out how to beat Michele. It just takes a lot of energy to do.”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiz6tqz1MsO
“That’s correct.” Justine said.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUSjj7z8xle
“Fair. Time to prepare the game of being a ‘sneak new yorker’ and prepare for the main event. Want to help me prepare for the fight, Justine?” Carolyn asks, softly smiling.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoHCCb9uzYo
“Me? Sure! I will be honored to help you!” Justine said, Carolyn smiles and hugs Justine. “You don’t have to be ‘honored’ to help me. I considered you as my adopted grandchild. I want you to help me out.”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9rDFEmsfqG
“Would you like to bring Oscar and your kids in as well?” Justine asked. Carolyn breaks up the hug.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ14tHvi9rFd
“Oscar can help. I would rather leave my kids out of this just to protect themselves from getting hurt.”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd8UyYOT1B0
“That’s fair.” Justine said. “When are you planning to start preparing for the fight?”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfs7tW8YGst
“Soon. I want you to heal up first before we start preparing for the fight.”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFEBCKPm1iG
“Alrighty!” Justine smiles. Carolyn smiles, she walks towards the chair, grabbing her purse. She walks up to Justine, hugging her and kissing her cheek. Justine hugs Carolyn back.
“I’ll see you later. I’ll text you when I get home. Okay?” Carolyn said.
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgjJzOTpk1u
“Okay!” Justine said, breaking up the hug. “Stay safe out there.”
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQvDlJjDPKR
“I will.” Carolyn walks towards the door, she opens and looks back at Justine. Blowing a kiss towards them. Justine catches the kiss from her and forms a heart shape with her fingers. Carolyn smiles warmly and walks out the door, closing it behind her79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGZz2Sls2FB
