Jasper look at Asri. "Oh, he'll find something" The angel said with a grin.
About 20 minutes later, requiem was in front of Ethos home. No one was around thankfully. The dog ran around to the back entrance and jumped up onto the back door, placing it's paws onto the door handle, and as he slid back down, opened the door. He slithered his way into the house and began to run around, looking through everything and everything.
Requiem ran through the home, trying to locate the office. Thankfully it didn't take to long.
"There we go. Ok. Requiem is in Ethos, office. Cross your fingers that he finds something.
___________________________
Casey was right, he would have to have the contract modified. Easy enough. He turned back to Selice. "I will be back, and when I return you shall no longer be tied to Asri" He said softly before walking away. His destination? Her home.
___________________________
Selice ran at the bars, trying to grab Michael before he could walk off. "Please Michael, don't!" she pleaded, but to no avail.

Asri watched intently, as Requiem rummage through everything. He kept his fingers crossed that the dog could find something, yet... Asri felt pain in his head suddenly... He had a feeling that things could get worse... No... he thought,what's going on...?
"I hope Ethos doesn't show up," said Asri, "is he at work at this time?" He soon recovered, but then stood to his full height, looking around nervously. Decades of adventuring through dangerous dungeons had honed his intuition to the point where he had an idea if something bad was going to happen soon... What? ASri had no clue.
_________________________________________________________________________________________
Casey chuckled happily, looking at Selice with a large grin on her face.
"Trust me, this is for the best. But why are you so accepting of serving him? Why do you care for him so much?! I may not know what Asri does with those souls, but it's a better alternative than getting attached to him and vice versa!"

Selice looked at Casey, her eyes burning with tears. She turned away and sat back on her cot, ignoring the angel across the hallway.
____________________________
Requiem continued to dig through everything till he spotted a box. An ornate box sitting on Ethos' desk. The dog jumped into Etho's chair and flipped open the box with his nose.
_________________________________
"Well there is your evidence" Jasper said, sitting back in his seat. Inside the box Requiem had opened sat a black scroll, bearing the seal of Lucifer himself. "I wish he could open it. but the fact he even has it will be enough to get you a search warrant". Jasper grabbed a blank sheet of paper off of Selice's desk and scribbled down a name. He handed the paper to Asri. "Go see Arvix. He will give you the warrant. Tell him that Jasper sent you and you'll have no problems what so ever. What are you waiting for! Go!" _____________________________
Michael landed outside of Selice's home and quickly walked up to the front door, pounding on it.
____________________________________
Jasper looked at Asri. "Hold on, I've got it". Jasper stood, minimizing the camera screen and ran to the door.
"Michael? what are you doing here I thought you were going to go see Selice?" The angel asked puzzled.

Asri nodded, and ran out of the house by the back door. His aura-sensing range wasn't big, but Michael was powerful. And he was right outside the door. Jasper mentioned to him that Michael cared fort Selice. Alarmed, Asri gathered his papers from the archives ran out of the back door and took off. Knowing Casey, she would likely have informed both of them of his reputation... and Michael... by Luisine's Light, if it came down to a fight, Asri wasn't sure if he could get away from it.
He flew and flew as fast as his wings could carry him. Arvix... that name was strangely familiar. Asri had worked with him a couple of times in the past, but other than that, they didn't know each other that well.
"Thank you Jasper," he muttered, as he flew away, his memory quietly guiding him to Arvix's office.

"Where is Asri. I know he was here, where is he?"Michael demanded of Jasper.
_________________________
"He's not here. Left a while back. Just been me cleaning up around this place" Said something about heading off to the reaper's archives" Jasper said, totally pulling of his lie.
__________________________________
Michael turned and flew off, the archives his next target.
__________________________________
Jasper sighed. "Too damn close" He turned and closed the door. He returned to the office and re-sized the video screen. "Alright Req, come home".
___________________________
Requiem shut the box with his nose and left the room, running for the back door. He made it safely out, closing the door behind him and ran back to Selice's home.
_____________________
Arvix sat in his office, filing through stacks and stacks of papers. "God, this job is never done" he grumbled, filing away a recently closed case.

Some time later, Asri landed in front of the building that house Arvix's office. The law enforcement building naturally, a large hulting building that wasn't as tall as the reaper archives, but still pretty big. It had five floors and many departements, windows everywhere and a shining, new feel to it. It appeared to be made out of glass, why brillianty reflected the sunlight. Not only to blind incoming demons, but also to symbolize hope and shining beacon that was god. Apparently Heavenly angels were fans of symbolism.
Asri entered it, weaving his way through the law enforcement officers and office workers of Heaven, apologizing quickly when he bumped into them. The hallways were much like in an office building on Earth, with the main differences being that the workers were all angels and that it was much neater and immaculate than in the typical human office.
Panting heavily from flying and running all this way, and after fifteen minutes of tiresome searching, Asri found Arvix's office. He knocked on the door, waiting for a reply.

Arvix looked p from his files, turning his attention to the door of his office. "Yeah hold on" he said roughly, standing and walking over to the office door. HE ran his hand through his short slicked back black as before he opened the door, making sure he looked presentable.
"Asri? What the blazes are you doing here?" the angel asked, examining the figure that stood in the door way.

Asri looked at JAsper, still panting heavily.
"Jasper sent me here... I need an search warrant," he said, "we've found evidence suggesting that Ethos struck a deal with Lucifer."
_________________________________________________________________________________________
Relazael sighed. He leaned back on his desk, looking at the clock. It was mid-afternoon, now. Selice's trial was getting closer and closer... he wondered how Asri was doing. Unless the case was easy, one day was never enough to get a good story to tell the court. He tapped his fingers on his desk impatiently, waiting for work to finally end. Asri's long talks about Selice and what would happen if he failed were exhausting enough.
It was typical of his old acquaintance, really... to develop feelings for any woman that caught his fancy. Which were a lot.

Arvix jaw dropped. "Your joking?! How?!" He asked, his thoughts racing at a mile a minute. He grabbed Asri's jacket sleeve and dragged the angel into his office, closing the door behind them. "Do you have any idea how serious these accusations are?!" I mean really!" Arvix sighed.

Asri let himself get dragged along, trying not to take notice of the stares of the nearby angels. Ethos was less obscure than he was... he was very well-known in Heaven when it came to dealing with Fallen. And high up in the ranks... a Throne to be more accurate. Luisine save me.
"... Yeah, I do," said Asri, "I think I remember the last fiasco with a Seraphim that tried to invade Heaven with an army of demons. Rather than sending him to Hell, I managed to get the court to lighten his punishment to being in prison indefinitely. It was a huge scandal. And this is pretty much the same thing on a smaller scale."
He then chuckled.
"Then again, Ethos isn't very fond of me; he knows of my true status in Heaven and thinks that I'm not trustworthy because of it. Wouldn't it be nice that he might have to turn to me for help? Yes, it will be a huge scandal, but getting tangled in them for the interest of my clients is my job."

Arvix looked Asri over. "You had better be damn sure about this, otherwise it will mean all of our heads. Yours, mine, and Jaspers" Arvix warned. He walked over to his desk and began to rummage through some papers, looking for a search warrant. He quickly filled it out, then handed it to Asri. "Tell Jasper he owes my big time" He said softly, falling back into his large desk chair with a sigh.

Asri chuckled.
"I know the laws here," said Asri, "I can manage. I'm only worried about you and Jasper."
This was the truth. Few angels had any idea how much Asri got away with. For instance, he was classified as an official angel of Heaven, yet also worked for Hell and Azrael. And Heaven didn't prosecute him for that. Yet. Hopefully never.
He then took the search warrent and smiled, before heading for the door.
"Oh, I'll tell Jasper that he owes you."

"alright. Just be careful, alright?" Arvix said as he ran his fingers through his hair. "Take care of yourself" He added, returning to work.

Asri nodded and carefully hid the search warrent in his bag, before the other angels could see. Without another word, he fled from the building, running past many angels carrying huge stacks of papework and careful not to bymp into them. At the entrance, he quickly spread his wings and fly up into the sky. He knew the way back to Selice's house... the problem there was making his way back without Michael catching him.

Michael burst into Relazael's office. "Where is The Plague Bearer? I was told he would be here, I demand to be told where he is" Michael growled.
___________________________
Jasper sat in the office, working on getting the camera off of Requiem's collar. "You may have saved Selice's life" He smiled, petting the German Shepard. Requiem barked happily, wagging his fluffy tail.
