her.
    “It’s ok. I remember. Let him go.”
     
     
    Later that night, Sarah, Shadow, Gabriel, and Remiel sat around a fire. A crow flew towards them and landed on Shadow’s shoulder. It looked like it was speaking to Shadow before it took off again. Remiel looked confused.
    “Is it normal for birds to speak to demons on Earth?”
    “That wasn’t a bird. That was a demon that has a vested interest in pretending to be dead right now. He was checking in and letting me know where Bumalin is. I may need to use Bumalin’s power again at some point.”
    Sarah scooted next to Shadow.
    “So are you going to tell us what was in your memories?”
    “It’s pretty lame, actually. All of my memories of my father were fake. I never knew the guy. He came up from the lowest circle for a day because Persephone pleaded with the Dragon. He impregnated my mother. My uncle fed me lies and then trained me to be a weapon, hell-bent on freeing my father. Cain never expected me to find any of this out and he definitely didn’t expect me to live after I freed my father.”
    Sarah intertwined her fingers with Shadow’s and rested her head on his shoulder.
    “I’m sorry, Shadow.”
    “I think I may have something that’s helpful though. I now have a memory of sneaking into my uncle’s armory. There were two swords on the wall. One of them was Michael’s short blade.”
    Shadow reached into his cloak and produced the sword.
    “I have that one. Cain gave it to me. The other was a short blade that was as dark as this one is light. I remember asking Cain about the two swords. He told me it was the Dragon’s short blade. Apparently Abaddon had both at some point and Cain took them when Abaddon was dragged down to the lowest circle. All of those memories were pulled from me by Bumalin. Now that I have my memories back, I know that the Dragon’s short blade is no longer in Cain’s armory because I’ve been there since his death. It would make sense that Abaddon has it again.”
    Gabriel thought a moment and then asked a question.
    “Can I see that sword?”
    Shadow was taken aback by the request but Sarah nodded at him that it was alright. He handed it over to Gabriel. Gabriel looked it over with interest.
    “I haven’t seen this weapon in a long time. It is Michael’s and I had heard it was given to Abaddon.”
    Gabriel tossed it back to Shadow.
    “I know it will be safe in your hands. Thank you for letting me see it.”
    “No problem. Any comment on the memories?”
    “Well it makes sense that Abaddon would have Satan’s short blade. He would have access to lots of weapons with Azazel at his side, but that would be the most powerful. Abaddon likely reclaimed it shortly after he was freed. There’s not much alive that could have stopped him or even slowed him down. I think he may eventually come after you to reclaim his other short blade. I imagine if he plans to kill Michael, he’ll want to do it with one of Michael’s swords.”
    “Where the hell is Michael, by the way? Does he not feel responsible for any of this mess? Abaddon is his son… or does he still not believe that?”
    “It’s… complicated, Shadow. I think he believes Abaddon to be his son but seeing him is too painful. It reminds him of the night he lost Persephone.”
    “He needs to get the fuck over it. I don’t want to be cleaning up this mess any more than he does. I don’t want to be up here hunting my own father.”
    “It’s not that…”
    “It’s that simple. And you know what? If Abaddon picks a fight with Michael, I will not intervene. Abaddon can kill Michael for all I care. One less Archangel to worry about.”
    Shadow stood and started walking down the mountain. Gabriel sighed and shook his head.

CHAPTER 6
     
    Jess threw a bottle of beer at Murmur’s head. He narrowly avoided it and it shattered on the wall behind him.
    “How could you kill Muan? He never did anything to you! Of all the stupid shit I’ve seen you pull…”
    “Calm
