She hugged her again, her tears endless, "What will they do?" She sobbed, thinking over the verses about what should happen to practitioners of witchcraft

"I think you already know the answer to that, as someone who practiced this faith for years."

She choked, "I... I don't want..." She couldn't even speak it, only sobbed more

"Sometimes we have to accept things that we don't want to, dearest." She sat with her back against the wall. "Come sit with me..."

She continued crying and cuddled into her, trying not to imagine the things that came to mind. Should she pray? That had always been her way to put things out of her thoughts, but... What would she pray to..?

Rachel hugged her tightly and stayed like that until the early morning came, when Bella swung the door open. "Stand up."

Cass stood on weak legs. Her eyes had finally dried, but her eyes were still puffy as she thought about begging, "m-miss..."

Bella held her hand up as Rachel refused to stand, two other cult members coming in with a couple of plain white dresses. "Undress."

Cass only stared with wide eyes, her lip trembling in fear as she stared at the woman

Bella nodded to each of the women, one grabbing Cassandra and the other grabbing Rachel as they forced their clothes off.

Cass began crying again, feeling violated as she struggled against the women, being too weak to do any good. "Auntie!!" She yelled

Rachel glared at Bella as they both forced the white dresses onto their bodies, shoving them forward and out of the room. Bella grinned to the both of them. "We are going to cleanse you."

Cass whimpered at the lady, going limp and praying that whatever was to come, someone would save her. It was a hopeless prayer, in the town where every woman believes so faithfully in what they were about to do. Would she been one of these girls, if it were someone else found to be a witch? She shuddered at the thought, as more tears wet her face. These poor girls, they didn't really know any better. They thought they were doing good...

The two of them were lead into the large worship room of the cathedral, where two stakes had been set up right in the center. Rachel clenched her teeth. "How fitting for me to go out in my own element..."

Cassandra whimpered again, staring at the stakes and shuddering the image her mind painted for her, "p-please..." She pleaded quietly

She was only pushed towards them in reaponse, the two of them being tied to the stakes. Rachel looked to her niece, trying to give a reassuring smile as Bella addressed the rest of the town, which had gathered to watch.
"My loyal, loving women, we gather here today to witness the destruction of evil from within our good and true community! These witches had the audacity to practice their craft on our soil. Now they must pay."
The rest of the women cheered, obviously supportive of the decision Bella had made. The head priestess turned back to face the two girls, the same grin still plastered onto her face. "Do you two have anything to say for yourselves?"
Rachel remained silent.

"A-Angeles wouldn't approve of this..." Cass sobbed, her tears falling off into the kindling below her feet, "This is evil!!"

"No." Bella growled. "You are the evil in our home." She took a torch that had been brought out by another woman, quickly lighting each of the stakes, the flames quickly growing to a large size. Rachel leaned back, closing her eyes.
"If there is an Angeles Diabolicus," she whispered, "Please save us..."

Cassandra continued to cry, prayers coming out of her breath, though at this point she didn't know who she prayed to as the heat grew

Another minute passed before the building began to shake, and the statue of Angeles that was located in the center of the back wall began to glow.

Cassandra was too out of it too realize what was happening, thinking the shaking was herself, and not seeing the glow behind her closed eyes

The statue soon shattered, sending bits and pieces of stone flying everywhere, and several shrieks were heard as Angeles Diabolicus arose in the statue's place. She was beautiful, her skin as white as her hair, her eyes the color of a lavender field. She flew forward with great speed, the flapping of her massive wings putting the fires out. Rachel's eyes widened at the sight of the angelic woman, who turned to look at the two witches. Her face was as straight as an arrow as the building continued to shake and the women of the village got on their knees to worship.

Cassandra was, still, holding her eyes shut and chanting a single sentence prayer, until the fire was out for long enough that she noticed. She then opened her eyes and looked at the woman, confusion and awe on her face. Was she dead..?

She grinned as the building started to slowly fall, going and untying the ropes. She quickly swept them up into her arms. As she flew out of the cathedral, the women followed her in awe, but didn't get too far as the cathedral fell on top of them as soon as Angeles had exited. The angel continued to fly, barely looking back, carrying the two women far away.

She clung to the woman, confusion being trampled by her relief. Even if she was dead, it was a good afterlife, with her God.

Angeles soon landed in a field, setting the two of them down. Rachel's eyes were wide in shock as she stared at the woman, who grinned again to the two of them. "Got into some trouble back there, didn't we?"

Cassandra sank to her knees as soon as she was released, still shaking from the ordeal, before she turned her gaze up to the woman. "An... Angeles Diabolicus...?"

She nodded. "Yes, but you may call me Dia. It's what I go by for short in this form."

She nodded, "I have two forms: Dia the powerful..." Her body began to have a pale glow to it as her wings disappeared and she shrunk slightly, her facial features changing to form that of a man. "...And my normal for, Angeles." He said, obviously shy now.
Rachel's gaze snapped from the angel to Cassandra.
