Havana, Cuba (June 1966)
"Ronnie! Stop it!" Alice shouted, pushing Veronica away from LJ a millisecond after materializing between the two. Haneul appeared beside her, shooting a murderous glare at Veronica before dashing towards LJ's dazed form.
"Oh, come on!" Veronica whined, straightening herself up. "Latte and I were just having fun." She blew on her bangs, clearly bummed at the interruption.
"I specifically told you not to mess with them." Alice glared at Veronica. She kissed LJ's forehead, and the latter closed his eyes, his turbulent soul calming down from the contact. Haneul and Veronica watched in wonder at what transpired.
"He'll be fine when he comes to," Alice said softly, realizing what she had just revealed to H

Seoul, South Korea (June 2019) Haneul, LJ, and the Mirrors quietly surveyed the incredibly human scene before them. Families, holding hands as they enter the department store gaily. Couples fawning over one another as they pick out each other's clothes. Salesladies, bored and exhausted, trying so hard to keep awake and alert for their customers. All utterly oblivious to the celestials in their midst. Though a celestial herself, it included Tina, who stood in place by a rack of designer clothes, distracted. "So, that's her? Great sense of style." Veronica remarked, regarding Tina from head to toe with an impressed hum. "And you're right, Al. This Mirror's essence is quite unique. It's no wonder why Monique's trying to kill her. That lunatic must be shitting herself in envy. More than usual."

Seoul, South Korea (June 2019) Tina went to the mall with the full intention of relieving her stress--and that meant shopping until she dropped. Nobody could blame her. She almost got attacked. Again. And sure, a good-looking angel saved her. But she would be the stupidest person to trust a stranger. After he made her promise to stay put as if she were a child, Tina knew she had to get away. It turned out she made the right decision. She wouldn't have bumped into Haneul otherwise. Speaking of, he looked ridiculous. Haneul was maneuvering himself awkwardly, trying to fit his broad frame and the bundle of shopping bags in his arms into the entryway. His shoulder even hit the hotel room door with an audible thud. But he didn't seem to notice. Behind him, some of the hotel staff came

Between the 4th and 5th dimensions (Just Beyond Time) Veronica stared menacingly at the absurd painting in front of her. It had been days since he agreed to help the angels with their little problem, and she got nothing from it. Not Geronimo's whereabouts. Not a room full of clueless men who would offer up their bodies to her with no resistance. Nothing but boredom, a shoddy cottage in the middle of nowhere, and the hideous painting in front of her. She scratched it with all her might, the fragile medium disintegrating between her fingernails. "Hey! That's a Monet masterpiece!" Alice yelled from the other side of the room. She was setting up a game called Monopoly on the table. One that they must have played a thousand times since they parted ways with Haneul and LJ. "It's a

7th dimension/The Third Angelic Sphere (Beyond Time) "How is he?" LJ rose from his seat, fingers twitching in agitation. The battle in Varanasi remained fresh in his mind. The carnage and the glaring thought that the tides of the never-ending war between angels and demons were moving faster than they ever were. From the damages they took, the angels were less than ready for it. "He'll be alright." Keira, the healer angel who had just come out of Javi's room, spoke, "He wasn't hurt from the battle, actually. It was more..." she paused in uncertainty. "More what?" Keira shook her head, her thoughts unable to supply the mystery at hand, "I'm going to need more time to figure out what was wrong with him." "Why? Is it that serious?" Minho asked from beside LJ. "There's...I can't quite explain it. Javi's exhibiting some Nephilim characteristics." Keira reported. Minho and LJ glanced at each other. It made s

Seoul, South Korea (June 2019) Haneul reformed inside Theo's hotel room, and so did the witch-traveler beside him. Theo was still calcified from the effects of the curse put on her. Carefully, Haneul laid her down on the bed, closing her frozen wide eyes. He then waited for Tina to appear in front of him. What was taking her so long? Haneul sat on a couch near the hotel room's door as uneasiness set within him. If anything had happened to Tina, he would never forgive himself. Just then, a sharpshooting sensation went up from his palm to his shoulder. Haneul realized it was coming from Tina's necklace, which he still grasped in his left palm. He studied the object. The energy that came from it was gone now, but the object had a curious glow to it. It pulsed on his hand, enticing him to do something. It was a familiar feeling that he could not place. Haneul's forehead creased in concentration. "Han?" Tina's voice intervened with Ha

Seoul, South Korea (June 2019) Tina woke up with a headache. Glancing around her surroundings, she realized she had fallen asleep on Theo's bed. "Tita?" She asked her guardian as she spotted her on the other side of the room, doing incantations in the middle of a pentagram. Theo paused what she was doing upon hearing Tina's voice. "Hello, darling." she greeted her ward with a tired smile. "What are you doing?" Tina asked in concern. She didn't think Theo should be doing any magic at the moment. Crusts of blood could be seen in the corner of her aunt's eyes and her skin was pale. She looked beyond exhausted. "A cloaking spell. This should keep any being from finding us for the time being." "You should've woken me up when you did." Tina answered, "And are you sure you should be doing that? You were in bad shape just hours ago. How are you feeling?" "I'll be alright, Tina. You don't need to worry about me." Theo said, "How about you? Everything must be a huge shock to you. I'm

Havana, Cuba (April 2130) She pulled up her hood and walked with her head down, making sure the click of her heels could be heard. Twenty-thirty was home to corrupt travelers, creatures that could traverse dimensions despite their completely ordinary human birth. No one was safe in that timeline, especially her vulnerable female form. But as if summoned by her thoughts, heavy footsteps sounded behind her, accompanied by the unmistakable scent of a traveler. "Who's there?" she called out, her heart skipping a beat. Just then, somebody slammed her into the wall and the stink of alcohol dipped into her nostrils, suffocating her. "Hey, little thing." the traveler leered at her, "I was wondering if you could do me a favor." Tongue slipping out of his slim mouth, his hands clutched her breasts and his knee pressed painfully between her legs. "Wh-who are you? Let go of me," she whimpered with a feeble attempt to free herself.

The 7th dimension (The Third Angelic Sphere) "Amara Khatri." Camael nodded at Amara, who still looked a bit pale from her injuries. Javier Santos was noticeably absent, though it was understandable from the amount of damage he had sustained from the battle at Varanasi. Amara prayed for him to recover soon, and also for Minho, Haneul, and Li Jie to show up at the assembly. She did not at all feel confident about making up excuses for them in front of Camael. "Moon Haneul," Camael said, then looking into the two other empty spots beside Haneul's. "Li Jie and Kim Minho are also absent." Amara swallowed. "They might have been held up with matters concerning the Filipino Mirror, Ma'am. I'm sure they'll be here in no time," she said, infusing all politeness in her voice. Camael paused, frowning at Amara, "Funny, I don't remember asking you to speak, Khatri." Amara gaped at her superior in embarrassment. In her periphery, she saw Mikazuki smirk. Of course, the creature would delight
