Tiel is safe from that place but if he ever loses this, it will take him back too,” Michael said and took hold of the crystal connected to Tiel's necklace, into his hand. “Make sure he is told of this when he awakens,” Michael said then left.

It was about a day later. Tiel just woke up. He still had enough regenerative power left from the chaotic universe that the residue left in his body began to regenerate his cells. He sat up. He pulled the airway tube that was still lodged down his throat. He just looked at it now and at the IVs hanging close by. One still was giving him blood.

Tiel was confused. He then took out his IVs and unhooked the heart monitor tabs still taped to his chest. What had happened? Where was he? “Sam?” he called. Who was that? He couldn't recall. He then got up. He made his way to the closet and found his clothes, so he put them on and then he left the hospital.

Nurses rushed by him on their way to his room because of the sudden flat line they got. They didn't recognize it was him who had walked past them. When they entered the room, the patient wasn't there.

Tiel walked for what seemed like days. He was in a daze. Who was he? If only he could remember...

“Tiel is gone,” Yoha informed Cyrus.

“What do you mean by that? He's in intensive care still, in a coma,” Cyrus blared. So Yoha took him there. Sure enough, Tiel was missing and so were his clothes.

'How can this be. He was in a coma, on life support,” Cyrus honked. But then he had a theory. “You don't suppose he regenerated, do you? The residue from that other dimension. From what I read from their tests, Tiel and Cetera had the ability to heal and they almost had their full-fledged powers back of Heaven that they once had, and it all is connected to that universe. I'd sure like to go there and study it. If I ever found a safe way to get there and take samples I would,” Cyrus spoke...

Tiel walked till he could not any longer and fatigue overtook him. He staggered to the side of the road where some green grass and hills lay and just killed over there. He was fast asleep. He still wasn't quite recovered. No, not by a long shot.

 

When Tiel awoke that next day, hunger took him back to the road. He was still very weakened and he needed food and water. On he walked...

 

 

My name is AAyaelees Amistis Star. I live at the Seaside Hotel. I am in my 20s and that's all you need to know about me. I was walking around the outside of the beautiful hotel picking some roses when I saw a man walking up the road. He looked pale. I went over to him to see if I could be of assistance. “Sir, are you alright?” I asked him.

 

“Miss?” he addressed me. I was very pretty he noticed. I had very unusual strawberry blond hair. It was long and wavy. I looked like an angel. Then it hit him. Wasn't he an Angel of some sort?

 

“I'm Amistis Star. You can call me AAyael, short for my first name which is AAyaelees,” I said and smiled. But it all went over his head. He felt so light headed and he was sure he had a fever. I noticed how handsome he was. He just looked at me. Then his eyes rolled back and he began to slump so I went forward to catch him. “Some help here!” I hollered. But hardly anyone was around.

 

“Oh sir? Are you OK? Sir?” I barked trying to hold him up.

 

“I-I haven't eaten in q-quite some time...T-too weak,” he told me. I wrapped my arms around his waist trying my hardest to keep him up. He began to breathe fast. Maybe he was having a blood sugar attack. I knew how that was. I had low blood sugar myself and I could sure sympathize. “HeLP! HELP!” I cried. Two gardeners then rushed over to me and helped get him inside.

 

I decided to put him in one of the rooms. We were never that busy this time of year and I was sure Ycantohgs (Pronounced CHAN-TOEGS) wouldn't mind me helping someone in need.

 

Tiel was laid on the bed. I took his shoes off. He appeared to be sound asleep. I placed a blanket over him and a cold cloth over his fevered forehead and just left him alone.

 

Later when I thought maybe he'd appreciate some food, after about 2 hours, I brought up a tray. He was still out cold on the bed. I undid the lid. It was chicken and wild rice. “Sir, some food,” I said and gently shook him. His eyes popped open and he sat up. He just looked at me. Man, did he ever have piercing, dark blue eyes.

 

“Sir, some food and water,” I spoke. He looked at me puzzled. “Oh, thank you, “he finally spoke, then he went right away to eating. He wanted to just scarf it all down but I was still there watching him.

 

“I'm sorry Miss. What did you say your name was again?” he asked me and piled more into his mouth. He then took a sip of water. I smiled. “I'm AAyaelees, so just call me that,” I said not wanting to go into the long drag about my name again. It was a loo-loo.

 

He leaned over to me and whispered, “are you like me? Undecided?”

 

I just looked at him. He was sure I had to be, with my looks and all. It just made sense. I looked the type.

 

“Undecided? Undecided about what?” I asked.

 

“Are you an undecided angel?” he asked quietly. He added, “I just remember that I am too.” He then gave me a wink. I didn't know how to respond. I really did not have any idea what he meant by that. I smiled. He saw I had no idea what he had said. He cleared his throat. “Pardon me, my mistake,” he said and finished up his meal.

 

He thought I must think him a nut by now. It was all starting to come back to him. He wondered then if maybe I had seen his boys. “Have you seen two who look like men, you know, like me, well sort of. One is the same height as me. He goes by the name of Flanagan, or Thomas. The other is tall. Handsome. He goes by the name of Cetera, or he might be going as Samuel,” he asked, then just blared out, ”or Sam.” I kind of jumped.

 

”Have they checked into here by any chance?” Tiel then asked me.

 

“I don't know but I can check for you at the front desk,” I spoke. Tiel smiled. He felt renewed of strength. He got up and took my hand. “Thank you so much for your kindness, Miss ...Ael. Is it Miss or Mrs..?” he now asked. I was probably married.

 

“No. It's just Miss,” I replied. I hoped he wasn't taken.

 

“Well, Miss Ael,” he spoke not quite getting my name right yet.

 

“It's AAyaelees actually,” I corrected.

 

“Such an unusual name. It's quite beautiful. My kind can have such as that too so it is why I thought you might be... Well. I am....” he trailed off and decided not to reveal any more to me. It was apparent I was human. That he could sense now after he took my hand.

 

“I am Grant, I also go as Castiel,” he then introduced using his alias name and not his real one.

 

Man, my heart was skipping, he was so good looking. I had trouble concentrating. “Nice to meet you, Grant,” I spoke and smiled. I had such pretty eyes. A guy could get lost in those pools.

 

“Are you a native to...” he said then paused. “I hate to sound stupid but can you tell me where I am?” he asked me.

 

“Oh, the Seaside Hotel,” I responded.

 

“No, I mean where am I, what planet?” he asked next. I looked at him so puzzled. He swallowed. He knew he had to be careful how he worded this. Maybe he ought to just tell me the truth. He decided not to then.

 

“Grant, are you sure you are feeling alright? You have had a fever when you came to me. Have you been ill?” I asked. He decided that was the perfect excuse.

 

“Yes. As a matter of fact, I came to this dimension from a different one,” he began because he sensed I wasn't even from this universe either.

 

“To get here with Thomas and Samuel, it greatly weakened me. My species I mean have these abilities. It left me in a coma and I have lost my memories, temporarily,” he told me. Now I understood why he acted so weird. He was still kind of out of it still. I felt for him.

 

“You will need to stay here while you are examined by a doctor. Ycantohgs, the owner of this establishment has an M.D. Degree. I'll have him come examine you,” I spoke and got up from the chair.

 

“I'm fine. I assure you, that won't be necessary. If I could just check to see if my two buddies are here and perhaps spend one night and get cleaned up, I could repay by doing odd chores,” he told me. Oh, of course with those blue eyes of his, I'd agree to anything he said but still I knew Ycantohgs probably should be told. But I said instead, “that's fine. Are you up to coming with me to check?” I asked.

 

“Of course, and thank you,” he replied.

 

So, we went to the lobby. Ycantohgs wasn't at the desk. I was glad. He was a mean little guy at times. Ycantohgs wasn't human. He was only about 5 apples tall. He looked like a dream gone terribly wrong but I loved the little guy. Knives and all. He could be kind of scary at times.

 

Yans was on one of the phones. Yans too was small like Ycantohgs. He had purple, long hair, braided in the back. Someone obviously was yelling at him from the other end of the phone. I could tell by the way he was scrunching up his little face.

 

These little guys had genie type powers and could walk in the air by means of a gravitational belt. I guessed it was a dissatisfied customer.

 

“Ouch!” Yans out cried. He was trying to be nice but the man on the other end of the receiver was being far from civil.

 

“Just hang up, Yans,” I said. He pulled the phone away from his ear. I could hear the yelling now as well. Tiel frowned as he too could pick up a screaming voice from the other end.

 

“I can't do that. It would be rude,” Yans whispered to me.

 

“Oh, well I can,” I said and took the phone from Yans.

 

“Oh no,” he said. I then spoke, “call back when you can talk like a normal man and not some ape!” I then hung up.

 

I then took Grant over to the computer and typed in the first name. “” No. No one by that name has registered here,” I said. Grant then told me the second name. So, I typed it in. Nope. Nothing showed up. Grant looked discouraged now.

 

“Why would they just take off and leave me at the hospital?” he said but hadn't realized he'd spoken out loud. Maybe he ought to go back there. “I guess I have to get back to that hospital and see if I can't get some answers,” he told me.

 

“Well, at least stay here for the night and get rested up. I'll check around and see if I can't get someone to drive us,” I said.

 

“Us?” Grant chirped.

 

“I bet you have no idea where you came from if you had no idea where you were,” I told him. That made sense.

 

“Yeah. I'm afraid I just
