He shouldn't have done it; he knew the heavens wouldn't be happy.  It wasn't as if the demons were actually harassing her; they were just hanging out in her building.  They were territory demons; the heavens would allow them to have some areas of influence and angels had to know their place.  They had to know that although good was the ultimate and highest goal for all creatures, all creatures had to abide by their free will.  Strong humans could avoid temptation because they were not allured by the tricks of the demons; weak humans, though they might give in to baser desires, could actually become stronger even through failed encounters with the evil beings.<br/><br/>But some demons were really out for themselves; their own lusts.  They were really terrors, night frights, more than just devils.  They sought the death of people.  They saw that some people had gifts, treasures, innate abilities that could be evil's downfall.<br/><br/>Goddess spoke about a day coming in which all humans and heavenly angelic beings would live together in harmony in a world full of paradise.  In this world, the men that hurt Luna would not exist.  In this world, men, women, boys, girls would all have great friendships with each other and boundaries of right and wrong would always be respected.  Hugs, kisses, singing, dancing, joy, relaxation, innovation, love - all of these things would flourish.  The place would not contain that horrible, demonic thing that threatened the life of the one person Gabriel had been assigned to.<br/><br/>It was for that reason that Gabriel hacked his way through many demons; he eyed the apartment complex carefully; any demon or presence that he thought might have been the threat he slashed with his mighty sword.  Unfortunately, the uneasy feeling he had in his gut didn't go away.<br/><br/>He checked in on Luna from time to time; sometimes, he stared at her.  He looked at her unique features; he could not think of any female angels in heaven as pretty as her. She exuded delight, but he was dismayed that her smiles were few and infrequent.  In fact, the cat had picked up on something wrong.  Gabriel was beginning to believe that the "monster", for he knew not else what to call it, was the thing that upset Simon.  He wondered if Simon saw the ugly thing before; it was then that Gabriel panicked.  What if ... what if Simon WAS the monster.  Nah, the creature didn't exhibit signs of being possessed.<br/><br/>Oh, she was calling.  Gabriel went right to work.  "Hi, this is Gabe's landscaping, how can I help you?"  Thankfully, this was an excellent cover.  In the time Luna was in the hospital, Gabe was able to secure an apartment at her complex and a job with the place mowing the lawn.<br/><br/>Gabe waited patiently, still feeling uneasy with the way everything now lay.  But, he was determined to save Luna and free her from all her past.
