Gallus is in a cell, behind bars, in a special room where there’s only one cell. As he is, Gregory, Kelsey, Mai, Saige and King Jesse are there as well. “Alright, tell us what you know.”, says Gregory. “About what?”, asks Galus. “The whereabouts of Azrael.”, says Gregory. “A-Azrael!? Why would you wanna know where he’s located?”, asks Gallus. Gregory explains, “To make sure to put an end to this all. We want to know where your head honcho is.”. “Well I’ll never tell you.”, says Gallus. “Well we have ways to extract information.”, says Gregory.

  Suddenly, the lights go out and it becomes dark. The only things illuminating the room are a few barred windows. “That’s odd.”, says Gregory. King Jesse then gets a ring on his cell phone. He reaches into his pocket and takes the call and says, “Hello?”. “Your majesty, we have an intruder in here at the jailing site. They look like a part-bird part-man, and they’ve already taken out seve- GAH!”, says the guard on the line, right before getting cut off.

  “Hello! Guard!”, says King Jesse, but he hears nothing back. “Looks like something dealt with him. Let’s get ready for this thing.”, says Gregory. Gregory transforms his hand into a cannon, Kelsey, Mai and Saige take out their guns. “Oh you’re in trouble now. Looks like they’ve come to rescue me.”, says Gallus. “Or kill you.”, says Saige. “They’d never. A demon general of my caliber?”, states Gallus. “That’s how your brother died.”, says Mai. “You lie!”, Gallus responds. Mai explains, “That’s what you say and I know what Saige said before, but what really happened is that we had him tied to a tree, then a part bird part man showed up and killed him.”. “W-What!?”, says Gallus.

  “Here they come now. How about this, tell us where Azrael is hiding and we’ll protect you.”, says Gregory. “Huh!?”, responds Gallus. “You lie! How can I trust you!? He’s probably here to save me.”, says Gallus. A feather, at quick speed, goes flying in between the bars and almost hits Gallus, but pins the wall instead. Gallus witnesses and slowly turns his head to the feather in the wall. “Guh. GAAAAAAH!!”, Gallus screams.

  “Looks like I missed.”, says the birdman demon. “Why are you trying to kill me, I haven’t said Azrael’s coordinates!!”, shouts Gallus. “But there’s a chance you could. Also, Azrael doesn’t like when his demon generals lose. So this will be it for you.”, says the birdman. Gallus backs up to the wall with fear.

  “So how about it, you believe us now?”, asks Gregory. “Alright alright, I’ll tell you if you protect me!”, says Gallus. “Tsk. Traitor.”, says the birdman. “Traitor!? You tried to kill me!”, says Gallus. The birdman responds, “And whose to say that wasn’t a test that you failed just now. Now I’m definitely going to kill you. And I won't miss this time.”. “I’ll see about that!”, says Gregory.

  Gregory shoots cannon shots at the birdman, multiple times, but the bird man dodges the shots. Then Kelsey, Mai and Saige join in shooting him with their handguns. The birdman hides behind a pillar, then launches out feathers from a one winged swipe. The group get stabbed by some of the feathers, but still manage to stand.

  The group then slightly split up to cover more ground. The birdman then runs out from behind the pillar and wing swipes out feathers again, specifically toward Gregory, but Gregory disintegrates them with a blast and then he keeps blasting as the birdman jumps around the room. Gregory then goes in to punch the birdman in the face, and he gets blocked with one hand. The birdman then launches feathers from his chest into Gregory’s chest.

  “Hnn!”, says Gregory, wincing in pain. “Gregory!”, says Mai. Gregory then tries headbutting the birdman and it works and makes them both stumble back. Suddenly the birdman runs up and holds Gregory up by the neck.

  “No!”, says Kelsey, Mai and Saige. Saige then grows horns and a tail, and runs up then kicks the birdman back. The birdman feels the kick, but then goes into a fighting stance, where his hands are open toward his viewing direction.

  The birdman then speaks, “I’m curious, Saige. You have demon blood in your veins, I wonder how well you know how to use it.”. “I’m not a demon!”, says Saige. “Ha ha, not a demon? Then what are you? Demon horns, demon tail and even demon wings earlier and yet you still deny it.”, says the birdman.

  “Demon wings? Wait, have you been following us!?”, asks Saige. “Oh, perhaps I’ve said too much.”, says the birdman. “Who sent you?”, says Saige. “Well Azrael himself, of course. You’ve been causing too much trouble and so I had to monitor over your actions.”, says the birdman. “In that case, let’s capture you! And see what you know!”, says Saige. “Let’s see you try.”, says the birdman.

  Saige runs up to attack, then the birdman gets a few solid punches into Saige’s chest, causing Saige to drop on his knees. Saige then gets up to attack again, but gets kicked down. Saige then gets up again and tries running around the Birdman, and pouncing at him from behind, but the birdman just kicks Saige up in the air, punches him in the face coming down, then grabs him by the collar and slams him into a wall and holds him up there.

  “Gnn! How?”, asks Saige. “I’m just a superior fighter. Now then...”, says the birdman as he aims his arm at Gallus. “No.”, says Saige, in a weakened state. The birdman shoots multiple feathers through the bars and Gallus falls over. “NOOO!”, shouts Saige. “And that should be all. Now then...”, says the birdman, right before punching Saige in the gut, then running out.

  Saige crawls over to Gallus’ cell. Gallus coughs, while bleeding out from the neck and chest. “You’re.. still alive.”, says Saige. King Jesse comes out from behind a pillar. “Everyone’s still fine, that’s goo-”, says King Jesse, right before getting cut off by Saige. “Shhh shutup. Gallus, tell me where Azrael is hiding.”, says Saige. “He.. killed my brother and now.. he killed me. I’m not going to make it.”, says Gallus. “Hey if you want revenge, then I’ll do it for ya. Just tell me where he’s hiding.”, says Saige. “Fine. It’s at.. D-... Diamante.. Kingdom.”, says Gallus. “Thank you.”, says Saige. “Just get revenge.. for me.. and him.”, says Gallus. Gallus then dies right there.
