A/N: It is a little rough and there is some language and sexual reference so if that dont float ya boat look away now.

The gateway opened the three women hurried in crying with their special little bundles in their arms. They moved over the clouds and set the babys down in woven baskets at the edge of the gate. The gate keeper only watched them with sadness. He knew of woman who had dealing with horny angels but he'd never seen them come on his watch.
It was law that if an angelic child was conceived then it was to be handed over to heaven immediately so they could go to Angel Academy. The women looked so tearful and they clung to each other as they turned and went back to the portal they'd created.
They were from the 1600s and they were raised in the stream of magicks. They were upset that they would never see their little daughters again.

***

Elizabeth, Maria and Isabel daughters to Angel Jefferey ran along the beach. They were in first year, they had just started at the Academy and they were having a lesson where they found their Angel Name. It would be a code name for when they would go out on missions when they were older.
"Stand by the water children you can ever go in it if you want" called the teacher. She was a peacock and the most beautifullest they'd ever seen.
Fourteen year old Maria ran into the water and began splashing round. Something called out to her and she knew that that was her name.
"I got my name I got my name!" she chorused as she ran up the beach to Ms Glase
"What is it Maria?"
"My name is Chica. That's my angel name" her older sisters were still in the water and Isabel was splashing around while Liz just stood there staring out into the sunset.
"Elizabeth what's wrong?"
"I can't see my name. I cant get it, it wont come to me" she almost burst out crying.
"Dont worry it'll come" assured Ms Glase but as Isabel then all the other kids got their names Liz was still in the water waiting for hers. Ms Glase was worried, Liz was a passionate person and she'd expected her to get her name first.
"Elizabeth I think you should go and see Simon. I'm sure he'll find out why you havent got it" she nodded and walked out the water. Her sisters took her hands as they al walked over to the main building where the Angels went out everyday. They were like agents and they made sure people were protected against evil.
"I'm sure there's a good reason, Elizabeth"
"I know Isabel but I feel so empty up here in heaven. I'm missing something and I want to know what it is" they walked through the buildings doors and passed the security when the beeping went off.
"Hang on right there girls" said Ralphy, he was the kind man who worked as a guard.
"Girls you've been selected to go out on a very important mission"
"What? Already? I thought we werent allowed to leave Heaven until we'd graduated from the Academy?"
"Seems Simon authorised it. Here" he handed them a little portable television and smiled "Go to the gates and there should be a portal waitinf for you"
"Portal? Why arent we going by train?"
"Because this is a very special mission girls, good luck"
"Thank you Bye Ralphy!" they called as they headed off for their very first mission.

The three girls stepped through the portal and saw three women looking back at them. They were shocked that someone had passed through the heaven portal.
Maria looked round and saw the room was full of doors and there was a bowl of water on a ceromonial stand in the centre.
"Who are you?"
"We are the wise women who guard the portals. This is a in between place, where is it that you want to go?" Isabel and Maria looked to Liz and she looked at the small TV in her hands. She switched it on and a date appeared and then it super sped through a boy's life so far. He was only fifteen and he was signed up in an army agaisnt his will.
"We need to go to April 2003, England" the three wise women nodded and one of them dipped her fingers in the water and flung it at a door. It turned into a portal and she pointed to it.
"Be safe and travel quick. Dont let go of each others hands or you shall be lost in time" Liz put the tele inside her coat and she took her sisters hands and they all jumped through the portal.
The pull was so great that Maria was pulled off one direction, Isabel to the other and Liz went straight ahead.

***
Maria woke up because a sheep was licking her face, she looked round and saw she was in Medieval England and some dirty looking boy was staring at her with fear.
"Oh black" she cursed as she got up and stumbled to the dirt road. She couldnt see her sisters anywhere.
"Liz!" she called "Isabel!"
"Shoo devil woman!" hissed a lady who came running out of a little cottage.
"I'm no devil woman"
"Yous fell from the sky and I dont see no wings now leave this place before I get my broom!"
"Please I've lost my sisters I'm not a devil please can you help me?"
"Noo!" she woman shook her head fiercely "You come into my home and tempt my children I'll have non of that!" the lady grabbed the boy and pulled him inside.
Maria was left out in the cold and she shivered, she hadnt dressed right for this cold and now she was alone on a moor in the middle of England somewhere.
She stood out there by the side of the road for half an hour before the cottage door opened and the boy came running out. He put a jacket round Maria's shoulders.
"I can take you to town if ya want?" there was a North Yorkshire drawl to his kind voice and Maria just smiled and nodded
"Hope ya dont mind walkin" he said as they set off down the bare road hand in hand.
"Wont your mom be worried?"
"Nah mama's out for the night and we should reach town by dawn. I dont like walkin da lonely roads a night but I can see that you aint no devil. Just the opposite" he smiled and they continued walking.

***
"Miss? Miss are you alright?" Isabel opened her eyes to see a man in a pin strip suit looking at her. He wasnt really a man but a young man dressed up to fit in.
"Help me up" she put out her hand and she felt other hands lift her up as well.
"Are you okay? You had a pretty bad fall, what we you doing on the roof?" he asked. He had an Italian accent to match his suit. He was a gangster.
"Roof? I lost my sisters, can you help me find them?"
"Sure what are their names?"
"Well Elizabeth and Maria" she replied with a cosmic smile that could melt any heart
"And what's your pretty name?"
"Isabel" she blushed as he took her hand and kissed the back of it
"I'm Alexander White it's a pleasure to meet you"
"Should we look in the police station to try and find them?"
"Oh err ah um. Yeah sure" he seemed to back away from the idea and then suddenly Isabel's watch was ringing. She flipped the clock face out the way and saw Liz fuzzily looking back at her.
"Liz where in blacks name are you?"
"I'm in 2003 where are you?" Isabel looked up at Alexander
"What year is this?"
"1954 America"
"Okay Liz somehow I've ended up in 50s America. Where's Maria?"
"I dont know I havent been able to contact her. You dont think that the other side got her do you..."
"Now Liz no! Maria may be ditzy but she wouldnt get captured!"
"I hope you're right. I'm going to help our charge so many if it's done we can go home back upstairs" she nodded and flipped the clock face back.
Time began to run again, Isabel stopped time when she moved the clock face out the way. It returned when she put it back.
"So what do you do for fun around here?" she asked as she linked arms with him and they walked off down the street.

Liz sat on the hill in the park, she could see pretty much everything from it. It was early morning April 18th 2003 and it was sunny.
She could have hold of the situation easily but she'd never been on earth before nor had she been alone with out her sisters before. She'd contacted Isabel who seemed fine and safe but she hadnt been able to get through to Maria. Maybe she was in a further back time period than Isabel was?
She heard a bugle and looked across the road from the park, the army barracks were right there and the men were coming out for their morning execise. She stood up and walked down the hill carefully, they were going to be coming through this path in a few minutes. All she had to do was wait for the one called Max and she would pause time and get him away from his unit to talk to him. He was illegally signed to the army for a crime he didnt commit, basically the government wanted a good soul dead. He was destined for something but when Liz had reached the end of the little show of his life so far on the Tele it didnt say what it was.
"Hey little girl!" she heard someone call and then a ball knocked the wind out of her with a hefty thwack. She fell over and coughed loudly
"Stupid girl! You got in the way of our ball!" she saw shooes and she looked up. A mean looking group of boys were standing there, the leader had the ball under his arm.
"Girls have cooties. You infected our ball we're going to have to teach you a lesson!" sneered the rotten boys. She was frightened and it wasnt something that happened easily.
She fell back and scraped her palms against the gravel and all dirt got into the cuts. They advanced on her but she could her the monotonous drum of boots coming closer.
How was this important person going to talk to her like this? She hoped he wasnt as stuck up as those boys had been. Her hair was a mess and she could feel real pain for the first time in her life and she knew she didnt like it one bit.
Liz didnt move when the soldiers came trotting up along the path, they wouldnt stop for her or let her get out the way. She sat there crying because there was so much blood on her palms.
"Look out!" some one shouted and the next thing she knew she was at the side of the path in someone's arms on the grass.
"Are you okay?" asked the older lady "You almost got trampled by the unit, how did you hurt your hands?"
"Some bullies pushed me and it hurst so much!" she sobbed. She'd missed her meeting with Max Guerin.

***
So this was the village thought Maria as she looked round. It was a muddy dirt road surrounded by more little cottages and some stalls barely held together by thin string.
"Thank you so much for bringing me here. Maybe I can find a way home from here or find my sisters"
"I never really did learn ya name" he said
"Oh it's Maria. Maria Evans"
"My!" gasped the boy, she didnt know his name either
"What?"
"Are ya the Lords Daughter? Lord Evans owns this land and he tells us what we can and cannot do are ya his daughter?" he asked with mixed emotions.
"No I'm not the Lords Daughter, Jesus is the Lords only child, God doesnt have any daughters"
"No I meant the Lord who lives in the castle over there" he pointed and she turned round and saw a large Medieval castle complete with moat
"Oh" she gasped it certainly was Big!

***
Isabel sat at the little table and smiled at him politely, since her call from Liz she felt better but she was still worried about their youngest sister Maria who hadnt called at all.
"You have such a pretty name Isabel. Why are you in this bad part of town?" asked Alexander as he finally took his hat off and put it on the seat.
"I was on a job and I got seperated from my sisters"
"A job? Which family do you work for?"
"I dont have any family except my sisters and my papa, I have to find them or he'll be so mad!"
"What does your papa do?" he asked
"He's a type of teacher"
"So you're a rich kid then? Why would you need to go on a job when you have money?"
"Huh?"
"You're not a thief are you?" he asked and her eyes went wide
"Blackness no!" she said in shock "I could never steal its a sin!"
"Yeah so I've heard" he mumbled as he looked away
"So you sleep around then? Is that the job you go on?"
"Sleep? I dont need a lot of sleep. Unless I've had a run in with a baddun but this is my first time out"
"Oh" he grinned "How far does two hundred get me sweetie?" he cosied up to her.
"I dont know. Why were are you planning on going?"
"Nirvana" he replied
"Isnt that down south?"
"Could be for both of us" he grinned
"I'm getting confused" she closed her eyes and shook her head. He took the chance and kissed her quickly. She pulled back surprised partly because she'd enjoyed it.
"Why did you do that?" she whispered like it was really wrong
"Felt like it" he replied and then he heard the wailing sound of a police cruiser.
"Hell! It's the Rozzers!" he put his hat on grabbed her hand and pulled her out the backway.
They ran through the alleyway and Isabel never felt freer in her entire life. Alexander may have been bad but she sure enjoyed it!
She had no idea that an agent for Satan was watching her run through the back streets.
His name was Elsevan and he'd been the one who had made Alexander steal and Max commit the crime. He had one more target to work on, Michael it was differcult because there was so much trust and protection in the Angel that was with them. He laughed at how young they were and realised that Heaven must be getting really desperate.

A/N: It gets a little rough here. Rape is somewhere in this story so just warning you all. If it's not what you want to read look away now.

Maria had trudged through all this mud and she couldnt believe she was here! She had tried to call Liz on the watch but no luck so she was stuck here with a dirty faced boy in the middle ages. She snapped the clock face back on her watch and time continued to flow normally.
"So I should be getting back home. Mama is going to be a worryin where I've got to" he explained
"Wait" she managed to stop him from leaving but she heard her shoe squelch in something and she winced. Thank god she hadnt worn the heels!
"What?"
"Can I know your name?"
"It aint important miss, I'm justa friendly face helpin out a pretty girl"
"Please I would really like to know!"
"It's Michael, Michael Blacksmith"
"Michael Blacksmith" she smiled at him and he just looked confused "I hope we meet again some day" he nodded and he turned and walked away. He glanced back over his shoulder not wanting to leave so soon but he turned back and faced the way he should go.
Maria looked over her shoulder, the boy was fun and kind of cute and sweet and she definitely wanted him around. But he was walking away like he was just helping her. She shook herself out of her stare because only her sisters would be there... if she could ever be reunited with them again.
Michael felt stupid, he had to help this girl he couldnt just leave her alone. This was the only village for miles around and she seemed so fragile, she must have wanted him to help her. He turned round and saw her walking away. I guess I was wrong he thought and he turned and began his long journey home.

***
Liz sat in Serena Guerrin's kitchen with gauze over her hands. Serena had been really kind to her, she had saved her from being trampled and then taken her home and cleaned her wounds.
"Thank you very much Miss Guerrin I owe you a lot. But what were you doing out there that early?"
"I was waiting for my nephew. He was drafted to the army for something he didnt commit"
"Oh did you see him?"
"No I was busy saving you. He was in the unit that was going through the park"
"I'm sorry" Liz apologised
"What ever for?"
"Well you gave up seeing your nephew for me. I feel really guilty about that"
"I couldnt let you get hurt. You shouldnt get hurt, I was annoyed with those boys. I know them, they're from two streets down. Damn Valenti Brothers!" she snapped
"Please do not curse Miss Guerrin. It's wrong and god frowns upon that"
"I'm sure he would if he existed. You are a good girl Elizabeth and you are wrong to put such hopes in god. If god really existed there would be no war" she began wiping down the counter
"No that is not true. God loves his children, all of us man created war not god"
"Yes but god created man" she countered with a grin
"Touché!" she smiled back then Serena put the cloth by the sink and removed the gauze.
"They should be fine. It's just some small grazing and minor cuts, let the air get it and it should heal up fine. Dont pick or scratch because it'll leave scars" she warned and Liz nodded seriously
"Do you miss your nephew?" asked Liz with curiousity, she wanted to know what her charge was like and whether she would get along with him. She hoped he wasnt as rude as those boys were.

***
Isabel and Alex stopped outside an abandoned warehouse after their quick run from the police. Alex was out of breath but Isabel saw it only as good fun.
"I enjoyed that!" she smiled and he grinned. He went over to a small door cut into larger ones for vehicles and knocked three times, then once, then twice. A man opened the door and he pulled her inside.
She had a big grin on her face till she realised she was in the middle of a mob meeting. There were guns on the table and rough looking gansters holding them like babies! She became instantly afriad, only bad people under the force of Satan's agents used them she had learnt this in her very first lesson in Angel Academy, she could even sense a Person Of Darkness around. She scanned the men sat at the table and the man sat at the head of them had an aura of pure blackness around him. It was him, he was the P.O.D, Satan's Agent. He had probably made sweet Alex do something.
"Hello girly girl!" he smirked crudely a fire lighting his normally cold and empty eyes. She mentally cringed at herself for letting temptation conquer her.

***
Maria strolled round confused, there was so much mud and he laughed when he saw her try and get out of a big patch. She wriggled her foot and ended up falling on her ass. He almost laughed out loud as she tried to get up. She managed to get her feet out of the mud but now her hands and knees were covered in it.
He wanted so much to go out and take her by the hand and show her the way but he couldnt. He was shy for the first time in his life and he loved watching her from afar. She must have been special and she wouldnt... didnt want him around to mess up her life.
She kept getting strange looks from the people in the village but she ignored them. It showed him she was headstrong and not a force to be contested with.
She turned a corner and he gasped, she had accidentally walking in a guard of the lord. Those men were cold and unforgiven and because they served the lord they were able to get away with anything they wanted.
Maria was lost, plain and simple, she had a strange feeling that she was being watched but it didnt scare her. Maria turned a corner and came smack bang face to face with three guards. Finally at last some help, she sensed something wrong here. A P.O.D was nearby she looked round and spotted him emanating the black aura.
"Well what have we here" he smirked the other two guards pulled her out of sight from the market and shoved her into their little hut.
"Your such a pretty thing girly girl" he chuckled as one guard dropped his pants and the other held her down. She screamed as he forced his way with her. The door flung open and Michael was there and he attacked the guard who was stuck between her legs. The P.O.D just let him and when the guard was on the floor still as a log he disappeared. He had completed his task. Michael was her target, they had been given seperate targets and she'd just failed hers. She blocked out the guilt and anger and fear of the rape and just cried. It was all she could do because it just hurt too much to put what had happened into words.
Michael gathered her up in his arms and carried her out into the market place. He was going to take this angel home where she would be safe. Safer than here.

Amanda wasnt too happy that her young son had brought that she-devil into her home. She had woken up to find one of her eleven children gone it wasnt the best feeling in the world knowing that some strange girl had been outside and she was gone too.
She was in a panic, she wanted to know if he'd gone catting around with those look a like girls from the village. People suspected them of being witches or heretics. He had a thing for dangerous and possibly evil beings she just hoped her son was okay.
The door opened and in walked Michael in all his messy glory and he was carrying that she-devil.
"Get her out of my cottage now!" she hissed but he sat her down on the small knitted rug near the fire.
"Those guards the guards of the lord forced themselves upon! Please Mama I can see she aint no she-devil I can see she's too good for that" he was right for now. She hurried to get worn towels she had used for nappies when her babes were new.
They managed to clean up the girl and Amanda noticed that Michael seemed to care a great deal for her. She was sat there sobbing and her heart went out to her. She must have just been lost on the moors and the wicked men who served the lord. She would do something about it if she felt it would make a difference.
The lord cared for his land and he governed it properly but he had always missed out. He was alone and had been for most of his life, his parents died and he moved away from the farm he worked with an eager maid, Michelle she was pretty but not what he wanted in a wife. It seemed that he was never going to be married.

***
Liz had a plan. It wasnt very good but it was a plan no less, from what he had learnt about Serena she was definitely going to be meeting Max Guerrin very soon.
She was going to help him best she could. There wasnt anything she could do because she had seen him actually commit the crime but even though it had been an act from the P.O.D he was still guilty of it. He wasnt going to be free to live his life and go to Heaven unless his soul was cleared and she knew just how to help him. She was going to find him a person who was run down and she was going to get him to turn that person's life around. Save a soul, what better way for redemption?
Serena had put a great trust in her and never questioned why she was there. She had no idea that she was being given heavenly help.

***
Alex was confused, apparently his new boss and this fancy pants girl knew each other. He hoped he hadnt found this bosses daughter or something. But instead of angry he looked rather amused he took a quick glance at her and found her shaking with anger and fear.
"I should have known someone like you was behind this!"
"Very good Angel Face" he snickered roughly at her reaction
"Shut up!"
"Do you like that? Angel Face? Do you like feeling angry?"
"No!"
"I can sense your anger. You're not even properly trained! They having a crisis upstairs? To send down a rookie like you?"
"I'm not a rookie. I could beat you any day!" he laughed heartlessly and picked up his gun from the table.
"What about the weapons of man?" he inquired
"I do not fear mans weapons because I shall instantly return back to heaven"
"But what about him?" he waggled the point of the gun at Alex. He gave a gasp and moved back but didnt let go of her hand. She hadnt realised, it was her mission to protect him make sure he made it back to Heaven. His soul was being tested whether it was better in Heaven... or in Hell. If he died now he would be doomed for all eternity and it would be all here fault!
"Leave him alone!"
"I dont think so Angel Face!" he stood up finally
"This little thief has so much potential. There have been signs that he will bring greatness for either side. He will be a key player in the fight against good and evil. If he goes to the dark side with me then he will bring down the destruction of Heavens gates... if he goes to Good's side then he'll bring down My Lord..."
"Well I never imagined he would put so much faith in me"
"Who?"
"The man I have so much faith in!" she replied feeling her angel form. She went tranparent, her body was glowing and her wings appeared. Then suddenly the room was filled with so much goodness and it squashed the boss's temporary form. He changed into his true form which was nothing more of a shadow. He shimmered along the floor and she chased after it. A bang rang out but since she was in corporal form the bullet went right through her and into the body behind her.
"ALEX!" she cried her voice echoed off the walls and she saw him fall to the floor. She knelt down and focused her energies on his goodness. She poured the love for her sisters and the love of her life into him and when she moved her hands the wound was still not gone.
She could sense her father... the man she had lived with since she was a baby. He appeared in front her, on the opposite side of Alex's body, and took her hands. He held them an inch above the wound. A light appeared and it swirled round to it met in the centre and disappeared with a pop.
"Well done my baby. You have earned your first pass, you are now in Second Class in the Academy. Now go finish what is unfinished, I shall protect him till you return" she nodded and looked up she became light as a feather as she floated up and out the roof. She looked round and tried to sense the shadow. The coward was hidden somewhere dark in another warehouse. She floated through and down into it, he was terrified after he had actually seen who her father was.
"I'm sorry!" he cried
"I forgive you" she smiled politely as she reached out her arms and bathed him in light. His lost soul only felt peace and the soul moved on to the next plain.

Amanda just sat there holding her bruised cheek and rocked back and forward. Maria knelt in front of her staring at her wishing she would as least say something.
"Amanda?" she whispered softly and she looked up
"You would know wouldnt you! He said you were special! Do you know?" she demanded grabbing hold of Maria's arms tightly "Please he's my son!"
"I dont know. I dont know what they're going to do with them"
"There has to be some way to help him" she pleaded with unshed tears in the corners of her eyes. She was on her knees begging
"I dont know. I'm sorry" she whispered and Amanda slowly moved back with realisation sinking in
"So thats it? They're going to kill him? Oh god" she clapped a hand over her mouth and went dizzy "Michael..." she fell back onto her butt and started crying. Maria began crying too, she had never seen so much pain before in her life and it made it a million times worse knowing she caused it.
She stood there staring at the woman she broke when her watch began to beep. She flipped the face off and saw Isabel staring back at her
"Maria?" she said but the link was fuzzy "What's wrong?"
"I screwed up big time. I need help Izzybizzy" she replied to her watch
"Dont worry. Papa's coming to help you, you're not alone. I love you"
"I love you too Izzybizzy" she snapped the watch face shut and time realigned itself back to normal and continued to run "I'm going to get him out. I dont care what it takes they are not going to kill him!"

***

Isabel snapped her watch shut, Maria never called her Izzybizzy unless something was really wrong. Her father was sat on the table with a keen eye on Alex, who was pacing and niggling out, in the middle of the room.
"Alexander sit down" ordered papa and her did.
"Papa can I talk to Alex?"
"Yes you may. I'll be outside talking to the wise women of the portals. I take it Maria needs my help"
"Yes she does. You have to go to her papa, she's younger than I am and I can get back okay" she nodded and he hugged her then left the warehouse. Isabel turned to Alex who was inches away from booking himself into the looney bin.
"What... what are you?"
"I am an Angel"
"An... an Angel?" he asked incredulously like it was a laughable topic
"I am an Angel. I was born on earth and I have two sisters who are both angels too. There was something wrong so they sent each of down here to make sure it was good. I'm sorry I let you get shot"
"Ahh at least you made it better again. So I'm special then? I do good?"
"Yeah you do" she replied. She thought absent mindedly what it was going to be...

That's it. No more for now, sorry it's short and Liz is left out but I'm still trying to get her sorted. I'm not sure where I want to take her bit so suggestions would be a godsend! Hah I made a joke!

A/N: I made a banner for the fic. Hope you guys like it, it took a few hours to make. Enjoy! I just realised something I'm typing this listening to Robbie Williams Angels!

He was gripping my hand so tight. He must have been as nervous as I was. Amanda gripped the other hand just as tight. We were stood in the castle court trying to plead for Michael's life he was arrested for attacking the guards because of Maria's rape. They got off with it but he was sentenced to be hung.
"Please Lord Evans spare my son" she begged as the lord appeared and he saw her for the first time. He hid his gasp of surprise that someone so poor could be so beautiful
"What is his crime fair lady?"
"He aided this girl when your guards saw fit to rape her!" she snapped
"I see. I lord of this land hearby pardon..."
"Michael Deluca" she filled in his blank
"I hearby pardon Michael Deluca of any crimes against my guards" he decreed then turned to talk to Amanda but she ran off to find her son Maria just held her fathers hand
"What now papa?"
"I think love is in the air" he whispered holding her close and keeping her safe.
"Lord Evans would you be so gracious to let my daughter and I and her friends dine with you tonight"
"Amanda and Michael?"
"Yes"
"But papa who would look after her other sons and daughters?"
"I shall. You shall go to dinner and make sure that Lord and Lady meet up" he nodded kissed her forehead and walked off.

***

Liz and Serena stood outside the barracks late at night. They were going to sneak in and find Max and tell him of their plan.
Liz climbed in the window first and made sure that no one could see them. Serena climbed in and took Liz's hand and they walked through the shadows towards his bed.
Liz let go as Serena went over to talk to him. She watched him sit up slightly then something just made her want to see him. She crept up silently and looked at him. He had sleep in his eyes and his hair was curling at his fringe and his eyes were the biggest brownest eyes she'd ever seen. Her saw her and gasped
"Max this is Liz, she is going to be the one you're going to help. She wants you to redeem yourself and she will help you off with the charges. This is a law that if you are a teen husband then you cannot go to war because it states that you are in a relantionship but still a child and they wont let children fight"
"Aunt Serena I have to fight it's my punishment for a crime I did"
"You were innocent. Please I cannot let you go to war!" cried Liz. She knew he would be killed if he did, he was far too inexperienced for such a thing.
"Very well. I have leave in two days time. Then we'll do it, but I would like to get to know Liz a bit first" he whispered glancing longingly at her. Maybe this silly marriage would lead to greater things?

Summary: Suppertime

I was sat in the kitchen drinking tea. Highly normal for anyone but I was an angel. An angel who was about to be married to save a soul, I have heard of extreme soul saving but this was a little out of my league.
"Are you okay?" asked Serena and I put my cup down
"I can't believe I'm getting married and so soon"
"It's just a temporary solution for now. Once it's over and he's out of the army you dont have to stay married. I'll take him and we'll leave for America" I nodded simply
"I have to go through with this. I have to" I whispered
"Liz you dont have to do anything you dont want. I'm not pressuring you, there's loads of girls who could marry him. His old high school sweetheart Teresa for example. She loved him so much"
"No I have to do this" I was determined I would get this right
"Very well" she said camly "So do you have any family who you want to come?"
"Oh no not at the moment" she raised an eyebrow at my strange reply
"My father is well last I heard he was stuck in America helping my sister Isabel"
"Oh you have a sister?"
"Yes I have two"
"What's your other sisters name?"
"Maria"
"You have very pretty names all of you. So Maria will she be coming?"
"She would it's just she's stuck in the dark ages" I said non-chalantly "She's on a very important mission, she is helping this boy. He was about to be hung"
"Oh that's terrible"
"Yes it is isnt it" I replied.
"So what does your father do?"
"He works for god"
"Ah a preacher" she smiled "That would explain your knowledge of the bible"
"Yeah it does doesnt it. I guess me and my sisters work for god as well"
"Did you sing in the quire?"
"No. We were very young and god sends us out on missions and we try and do the best we can. This is my very first believe it or not"
"I dont understand"
"I was sent her to help your nephew, Serena. I dont really have a say in the marriage thing because I will fail if I dont and failure is not an option when you see the bigger picture"
"And what is the bigger picture Liz?"
"Max will die if he goes to war. He will die and he'll go to hell for his sins" she whimpered and I knew I had gone a little too far
"Who are you?" she demanded as she stumbled up from the table.
"I'm going to be your niece" I said and she looked down at me. What did she see?

Meal is always important and this one is no exception. I'm sitting here with Michael, Amanda and the lord of the land.
"So Amanda how long have you lived on the moor?"
"Since I was a little girl. That cottage used to be my husbands but his family moved away and he went to live in it. I married him and moved in and had my eleven and then he ran away with a load bearing bar maid from the village"
"I'm sorry"
"Dont be, I still have my cottage and my eleven children. Michael's the oldest and I love him so much" she stroked his hair as she said it and smiled "So Lord Evans have you ever been married?"
"Please Amanda call me James or Jim" he pleaded with a grin "No I havent, nor do I have any children" she smiled politely at him then blushed. He was blushing too. Michael was frowning
"Maria can I talk to you?" I nodded at the others stood up and followed him
"Yes what is it?"
"What's going on with my mother and call-me-Jim?"
"Your mother likes him"
"Well I dont. This morning he had me set for death and now he's looking at my mother!"
"Oh will you give it a rest. How do you think this is for me? I'm sitting here with a man in charge of the men who raped me! You're mom is happy and you're fine. She likes him and yesterday you put me in front of yourself..." he grabbed me and kissed me. I just stopped speaking and froze.
"What on earth did you do that for?" I demanded
"I had to. One you were talking and two it's all I've been able to think about since I first saw you" I blushed. He had wanted to kiss me?
"I... I... dont know what to say"
"That's a first" I shoved him playfully and he came back and kissed me again. I couldnt help kiss back. To hell with the mission.

"So you're going back to heaven then?" he asked over the milkshakes
"I have to. I belong there"
"But... I dont want you to go"
"I dont want to go either. I like hanging around with you but my sisters need me. I'm really worried about them and as much as time here with you is good I can't forget about them"
"Then go Isabel. I'll never forget about you"
"You're letting me go so easily?" I inquired feeling a little hurt
"Who said this was easy?" he countered and I nodded "You have a life and a job and a duty. I can't stand in the way of that. It's your life and I would only be in the way"
"You would make me happy"
"Your life would make you happy. I couldnt offer you anything"
"I dont want anything but to stay here with you"
"I know but then you will and you'll hate me for it when you can't see your sisters and I dont want to take that from you. Have you ever heard the saying if you love something set it free?"
"No I havent. What if that something comes back"
"Then it's broken"
"Then the person who did the freeing should mend it" I smiled and he grinned
"I like you Isabel now go on get out of here!" he shooed me off and I stood up. I turned to walk out of the diner but turned round and kissed him.
"Maybe you could mend me some day?" I asked before leaving.
I stood on the pavement and flipped open my watch. I pressed the button and locked onto Liz's signal. I pressed enter and snapped the watch face shut and I was in England.

Summary: Dum dum da dum!

Isabel wandered along the street with her watch open, the signal from her sister was getting stronger and now she was in a nice row of terraced houses in the middle of London. She came to a door and the signal stopped and beeped three times. Liz was here.
She snapped her watch shut and time began to roll again. She made sure that she was presentable and then she knocked. A young woman opened the door and waited for her to say who she was and what she wanted.
"Um hello. I believe my sister is here"
"Are you Liz's sister?" she asked and she nodded "Come in! Come in! There's so much you can help us with! Now we have another bridesmaid!"
"Bridesmaid? Oh are you getting married?" she asked with a smile
"No not me! Liz"
"What?" she couldnt believe it Liz was getting married? She followed the excited lady into the living room where Liz was standing on a foot stool having a dress made up.
"ELIZABETH!" she cried "HOW ON EARTH CAN YOU BE GETTING MARRIED!"
"Isabel" she whispered in surprise "I thought you were in America"
"I was but I had to come back and help you out. When was the last time you contacted papa? He would go livid if he found out!"
"Dont tell him please! I'm doing this for my charge" she said as she climbed down and squeezed her sisters arm.
"Do all end all is that it?" she snapped and the lady whimpered and disappeared into the next room.
"Isabel she knows"
"Knows what? What we are?" she couldnt believe Liz had told her!
"Yes and she's going to be my aunt. I told her of my own free will because I told her why I was helping her nephew"
"And this charge of yours, our main charge, is he well how old is he?"
"The same age as me and he's really handsome!" she smiled. She had never seen Liz smile like that before.
"You've met him?"
"Once, it was dark but I could see him clearly and he was amazing. I um I think I'm in love"
"Love? You're in love... with a... a... a human?" she sounded grossed out "Liz you know angels and humans cant have a life together"
"Then I will cut my wings. I'm no good as an angel and if I want to be with him then I'll do it!"
"Do you even know what you're saying?"
"Yes I do"
"But you dont even know the guy. What if he doesnt love you back?"
"Then I'll return to Heaven and I'll be a broken hearted angel" she walked away and stood back up on the stool.
"Come hell or high water I am going to marry Max!"

She was kissing him back and it felt so good. Her mind was slowly becoming mush and she couldnt think of anything else. But she could hear beeping. She pulled away and looked down at her watch
"Are your friends calling?" he asked as he kissed her hair. She looked down at her watch.
"Give me your hand" she held his hand and flipped the watch open. Time stopped for everything except them two. He gasped when things stopped moving and he let go of her hand and walked around
"Are you sure this isnt devil magic? I've never seen such things!"
"Black it isnt!" she snapped then turned her attention to Isabel
"Hello Isabel what is it?"
"Liz is getting married" she couldnt quite believe what she was hearing
"Funny Izzy no seriously!"
"She's getting married to her charge!" Maria shook her head
"She can't do that"
"She is and she says she loves him. She's even talking about cutting her wings"
"Oh my!" she gasped Michael hurried over and wrapped his arms around her.
"What's wrong?"
"My sister. My sister is getting married"
"Oh" he didnt get what was so wrong about that.
"Isabel you've got to stop her! She can't marry that human and she can't cut her wings!"
"I dont know what to do"
"Sabbotage the wedding. Make sure she doesnt marry him, I can't loose her Izzy she's one of my best friends and I'm not loosing her!" she slapped the watch shut and time started over again.
"Would you tell me everything?"
"I'm an angel from heaven. I have two sisters and that was Isabel, she's the oldest. Liz is the middle sister and she can't marry a human"
"Why not? If he loves her" he whispered as he held her in his arms.
"Yes but that's the thing. She's doing it to save his life, she's talking about becoming human and renouncing heaven. That's a sinful crime! Humans and angels are forbidden by god. Any angel born of a human is to be taken straight to heaven on pain of death. I thought she would have realised that when papa told us we were born of humans"
"You have a human mother?"
"Yes I do... did. She was forced to give me up when I was a baby, Isabel and Liz are my half sisters. My dad was a busy angel"
"Oh. Is it okay if we get out of here? I really dont need to see my mom making kissy faces at the Lord" he said and she nodded. She was led away and she looked back hoping Isabel broke up the wedding.

Summary: Dum dum da dum!

I sat on the in the kitchen and tried to figure out a way to break this marriage. There had to be another way to save this charge. I looked up and saw a photo of a young boy kissing the cheek of some blonde girl. I picked it up and looked at it.
"That's Max and his old girlfriend Teresa. They were in love so much"
"What happened?" I asked her and she took the photo from me and put it back on the shelf
"He was conscripted to the army. They just stopped spending time with each other"
"Do you have her address?" I asked with a small smile.

I couldnt focus on anything after Isabel called me. Michael was safe and I had passed my mission here. I was just wasting time by hanging around.
"Michael?"
"Yes?"
"Let your mother and the lord fall in love"
"What why?"
"She'll get the man who will love her for the rest of her life and you'll get a loving father. I know he values you just as much as he does her"
"I dont want him kissing me or anything" he joked
"Please Michael, your mom lost your father and this is her chance to be happy again"
"What makes you think she was happy before?"
"She lived with all those kids. No offence but all those kids would be enough for any woman"
"Why are you telling me this?"
"I have to go Michael. I can't stay here, you know I had to go back sooner or later"
"No Maria I dont want you to go, please dont leave me"
"I have to"
"Let me come with you!"
"I can't let you come with me, there just isnt things you're supposed to see in the time I'm going"
"I dont care. I'll close my eyes if I'm not supposed to see it just let me come with you"
"I..." I stepped back and pressed my fingers over the button "Goodbye Michael" I pressed it and he grabbed me and kissed me just as the flash blinded me. I opened my eyes and he was still there but we were in early twentieth century England.
"Aah black" I cursed when I realised he'd made the time jump with me. So much for sweet goodbyes. Now I was stuck with him until the next time loop.
"Wow"
"Come on I have to get to Liz and Isabel" I grabbed his arm and headed for the wamr feeling I felt when an angel was around.
