Raziel turned around slowly, wings vanishing. "Amriel." he greeted simply. "How did you find me? I thought I covered my tracks decently enough."
"Okay." said Riverstar quickly. "I believe you. Um...why don't you come with me? There's someone back at camp who can help you."

"Yeah, the spell work was pretty high quality." Amriel answered, her light tone somewhat spoiled by the frozen lacing. "But you were a little too paranoid. Turns out you messed up one of those nasty complicated ones." She took a step forward staying out of reach but close enough to catch him if he ran. "So. I'm guessing you haven't been home yet."
"You think I'm crazy." Olivekit's tail dropped, and he sat down, both exhausted and defeated. "It's okay. I am crazy."

"Let's get you back." repeated Riverstar, deciding to leave the matter of whether or not he was crazy for another time. "We can help."
"I'm not stupid." said Raziel. "I was obeying orders from heaven, but I will be the scapegoat if I return. The convenient one to blame for all the scandal, as usual."

Amriel's eyes flashed, and a look of disgust appeared on her white face. "Oh, you are not the victim here." She growled, teeth flashing. "I'm here to kill you Raziel."
Olivekit hesitated, his black ears were still flicking here and there towards some unheard sounds. "Okay." He agreed at last, his tone doubtful.

Raziel shook his head and gave a noncommittal shrug. "I don't want to hurt you."

Amriel snorted, it might have been a laugh if hadn't been so cold. "Well, I do want hurt you. Do you know, I actually thought that maybe between you, Belial and Suriel, maybe not all angels had to be filthy traitors? Man, am I stupid."

Raziel's wings lit up slightly and there was an ominous rumble of thunder overhead. "Might I remind you that I am one of the Archangels? You won't win this fight, Amriel. Leave it alone."

Amriel laughed sharply, giving her already dangerous face an unhinged light. "Right. Play the power card, the pity one's getting you no where." She stared at him, shaking her head as she continued. "Well, what have I got to lose? Go ahead. Kill me like you did Suriel."

Raziel shook his head, sitting down. "I'm not going to kill you, Amriel. There's been enough bloodshed."

The angel's eyes flashed. "Not even in self-defense? Come on, you have to be annoyed by me by now, so drop the pretense and fight me." Thunder crashed, and her eyes lit up as her angelic voice could be heard, though it was nothing in comparison to her opponent's power she was obviously attacking.

Raziel lowered his gaze, glaring straight into her eyes. "No." he said darkly. "I won't fight you. If you wish to kill me, you'll have to do it while I'm fully defenseless."

Amriel gave a powerful snarl, turning at the last second and demolishing the four trees nearest her in an explosion of power. "FIGHT ME." She screamed at him, turning back to him, white eyes shining with rage as well as light.

Raziel stared around at the demolished trees, wind ruffling his fur. He shook his head. "No...you cannot intimidate me into fighting you." he said slowly. "If you want to kill me, you'll have to find your own ways to ease your conscience."

Amriel turned, striking at everything in reach except for the small bit of space Raziel stood in, letting out cry after cry of rage until they sounded less like rage and more like broken cries, begging for something no one could give her. When she finally stopped, gasping and utterly exhausted, the only patch of ground that wasn't dented and smoldering was the foot long patch the other angel's paws were touching.

Raziel stared at her pityingly for a moment, then vanished.
Riverstar arrived back at camp, Olivekit in tow. "Hey, medicine cats. Come take a look?" he called.

Falconstep pricked his ears, approaching Riverstar. "What is-who's that?" He cut himself off, frowning.
Olivekit shied away, pressing his ribs against Riverstar's back leg despite the fact that he'd known the leader for about as little time.
Amriel squeezed her eyes tightly shut, making a strangled noise in the back of her throat as she tried to shut herself off, even if it was just for a moment. Just one moment of blissful separation from her own thoughts and feelings.
In another moment she was back outside camp, head hanging in defeat.
(I feel like I'm being far too dramatic here, xD. )
