One in the Same (Deceased Characters)

[Deleted]

(ooc: Also god-like characters or those who have connections to more spiritual beings like Dean, if they decide to show up)

Liz had allowed herself to relax these last few days, knowing that Camie would be alright (She hoped) as long as she was around. Of course, it might've been a bit pretentious for the former woman to believe such thought, but it did hold some truth. Liz was currently responsible for keeping an eye out for her sister as well as a the others who shared a similar fate. Whether they were aligned with the Critic or Ask That Guy, that wasn't important-in the long run they were the ones suffering, not Facilier's mooks. They needed that extra reassurance that one day the nightmare would eventually end. Of course, when your guardian angel came in the form of a sarcastic, nerdy, slightly neurotic television writer...surely things had to turn out for the best right? 

She visited Camie everyday whenever she could, when she wasn't out performing or in the presence of the voodoo man's subordinates, she made sure to be there for her. Some days they exchanged silly stories or gave each other advice when needed. Regardless, Liz was beyond joyous to at least interact with Camie. With each growing day, she grew more and more gracious of her gift. Though she felt...strangely odd ever since she first visited Camie in her angelic form. It certainly wasn't a bad feeling, absolutely no. She never felt such way, even with her previous life back in New York, she rarely felt like this. No stress, sadness or fear. Just calmness and joy. Peace. That was what she felt. And for the first time in years, (And perhaps her life) Liz Lemon was at peace.

The only real concern the brunette had was trying to further get a handle of her new powers, she had far much more strength than any normal spirit or human. She was practically a sapient weapon at this point, but of course still a weapon of good instead of evil. As long as she didn't do something reckless, she would be alright.

It was late and prisoners, slaves and mooks alike have already arrived in dream world. Well, except the ones who weren't stationed on night guard duty. Liz had been keeping Camie company until she fell asleep, promising that she would return the next day as she always did. For now, she did what she did every night; wander about the area, checking up on everyone as they slept to the best of their abilities. Sleep no longer had much use to her, unless she wanted it. She rarely did though, and she was alright with that. Certainly not in her living state, but now she didn't mind as much. However, food remained of a huge importance to her, even if hunger was no longer an issue for her...she could literally devour as much food as she wanted without getting sick! Childlike giddy, flooded through her as she found herself in the kitchen, fixing herself to whatever good she could get her grasp on. She had fixed herself a feast of unhealthy food as she sat down and ate in the dark, unfazed by the lack of light, all while oblivious to the stranger watching her.

(ooc: Ew. This just sucks. >>)

[Alucard]

(OCC: Will probably bring in Linkara or IHeart but for now, he's the count himself! lol)

Alucard didn't like this at all. All this power lead to enslavement of all these people. Alucard, ever since the victory, had a gnawing regret. Normally he would never feel regret but his orders were to find the right people and if he didn't, destroy the wrong-doers. He was on the side of the wrong-doers. He had to fix it but as the time went on, he knew that the time to strike could be any moment now. All he needed was a opening and a good plan.

Hustling noise from the kitchen was heard to his supernatural ears and he turned. The human eyes were incredibly deceitful and unless a spirit or demon wanted a human to see them, they were invisible to all. Alucard, however, was no human. He had the eyes of a vampire and he was so much more. He could see any spirit, even devine ones, if he tried.

So he tried and what he saw shocked him. It was one of the heroes. A woman who was murdered by some little boy during the battle, according to facilier. It turned out despite death, hunger was still a thing to the woman. Seeing her eat in the darkness made him curious, and amused, with her. Alucard decided to have a little bit of fun. It was a while since he enjoyed himself here. So he snuck behind her quietly, before baring his fangs out and going over to the woman

"Boo"

[Deleted]

The woman had been indulging on a Cuban sandwich, face stuffed as she took a sip from a can of Sprite. "God...this is so amaziinng," The angel exclaimed through a muffled mouth. Liz then proceeded to clean her thumb with her mouth, all while sensing a strange aura approaching.

"Boo."

The brunette whirled in her seat, to face the vampire monarch, swallowing some food as she felt herself quiver in slight fear that she quickly subdued when she realized that he couldn't hurt her. "Uh...hello?" She greeted the blood eater, instinctively on edge she felt some protective energy radiate from her as a defense mechanism. "Can I help you?"

[Alucard]

He chuckled softly as Liz very quickly noticed him, quivering a tad until she realized that he was a vampire. He wasn't going to hurt her regardless but even if he did want to, he knew he couldn't. And so apparently did she. Divine people were very challenging to vampires. Despite Anderson being easily defeated, angels were much more powerful than a monster from God. She was protected. And they both knew it. Still, Alucard smiled and was shrugging "I just wanted to amuse myself slightly, madame" He chuckled "I was successful"

He walked closer but not too closely as she activated a protective shield. He chuckled "Relax, angel. I have no intention of harming you" He crossed his arms and looked her up and down "You're one of those heroes correct?" He sighed "Hm. I'm actually quite impressed with how noble you've become now. Seeing you in battle made me question it. It appears I underestimated you"

[Deleted]

While still a little skeptic of Alucard's words, Liz did let her guard drop slightly, she did however furrow her brows at the vampire's initial comment, slightly offended. "Hey, I wasn't scared...just a little caught off guard that's all." The angel stated firmly, arms folded across her chest.

She had to admit though, being referred to as an angel was a bit strange, and the brunette couldn't help but feel a pang of anger as Alucard spoke of how surprised he was that she was given angelic status. As if she didn't deserve it. It was downright offensive-she had suffered plenty during the war and now she was being told of how "noble" she became. She didn't need to be constantly reminded of how lucky she was, she already counted her blessings everyday.

With that being said, she suddenly realized that her wings were visible and drooping in annoyance. She still wasn't too strong when it came to containing her own emotions. "Yeah, I'm one of the heroes, and lemme guess you're one of Facilier's losers aren't you?" She spat. "What do you want?"

[Alucard]

"Who said you were scared, angel?" Alucard asked, a tone just as defiant. Yet his tone suggested only amusement and satisfaction. Apparently ruffling this woman's feathers was incredibly easy. Despite toning down on God's power, she still kept her guard. Well, she may have been nervous but she wasn't stupid.

It appeared, however, she was sensitive even in death. As heard with her snapping at him. Calling him one of "Facilier's losers" and demanding what did he want. Whether or not he could've of phrased his words better, he didn't care. He wasn't friends with her in life, there was no need in death. "Nothing. At least not from you. Do you truly think I'm so stupid as to not know what Facilier is doing?" He asked calmly "I am not so blind to the damage he has done. I truly thought you would overpower him. Apparently his cruelty was too hard for even your army"

He chuckled softly, almost sadly "Ever since I came here I was fascinated with the heroes. Despite Facilier claiming they were nothing, they actually were not" He then scoffed "Why am I telling you this? It is not like I should. I'm a monster of the demonic and you are a servant of the devine"

He then saw her wings and quickly Alucard stepped back. Wings equaled full power to the vampire. He may have not cared what he said but perhaps if he apologized it would calm her down a little "Apologies. I seemed to have made you a little annoyed"

(OCC: Lol. Because I'm loving this, Alucard's probably gonna confess his private plans eventually. Not now obviously but eventually)

[Deleted]

"...Overpower him?" She questioned out loud, blinking rich dark eyes now having their full attention on the vampire king. This got her thinking; did she really have the ability to stop all of this? She didn't believe so, she was still considered low-ranking in comparison to some other, angelic born beings while she was a human sent to be a guardian. Yet, she still had yet to explore the depth of her abilities. She had been warned that any over usage would exhaust her, and possibly strip her of her grace-what kept her drive as an angel. She couldn't bare thaconsequence. Even if it meant her soul was finally at peace, she would be useless and unable to visit her friends still stuck on Earth.

She was only vaguely listening to Alucard's words, mind trying to sort out the possibilities as she tried to make sense of them, certainly something to consider. She then snapped back to reality, making her trademark badger face. "Yeah, just why are you telling me this morning exactly? It doesn't even matter anymore, your leader got what he want. Yada Yada. The end." She threw her hands up in the air. "You guys won, what else is there to complain about?"

She then caught wind of his negative reaction when her wings began to show. This gave her an idea, a playful smile appearing on her face as she began to silently flap them. Even with her new status, she still retained her childlike sense of play, and it was appropriate given her status as a child among angel status. "Haha, how do you like that?" She laughed confidently before noticing she was lifting off the ground. "Huh? No, no, no. Come on wings, this is not what I want you guys to do," She then stopped and she landed back her in stool comically with an "oof."

"I meant to do that." She stated in case Alucard decided to comment about it, trying to make herself comfortable in her old spot.

(ooc: Oh Okay! )

[Alucard]

He nodded at her question but didn't care what thought process she was having. He was still trying to solve a way to overpower this man without anyone from the villain's being prepared or ready. As great as it was to have the challenge, it was also a nuisance because it kept him from doing his swore duty to Integra. She wouldn't care how long it took for him, he had to finish the job soon.

"Just because I work with Facilier does not mean I support all his decisions. I only worked with him to get information" He then realized what he was doing and cursed slightly under his breath. It wasn't like Facilier was here or that anyone would see her but him, but it was still out there. He tried to explain himself but Liz mockingly used the wings against him and he must've shown fear of some kind, for that he nearly felt embarrassed. He then saw her lifting herself and he stood firmer assuming she was doing it deliberately. His firmness only turned back to amusement as she seemed to be failing. Resulting in going back to the ground harshly.

"Of course you did" Alucard said. He wasn't going to comment but she brought it on herself. He then turned and saw another spirit and grinned. Hopefully this spirit wasn't a angel too. "Well now. More guests" He sarcastically said. He then rolled his eyes as she went to the angel, much to his chagrin.
XXXXX

IHeart was not entirely used to being dead just yet. Although she was supposed to go to heaven, according to the voices in her head, her soul didn't feel content with leaving this place entirely. She then looked about, tearing up at the sight of the city. It looked like it was controlled by darkness and despair. Yet the worst part was that plenty of heroes she felt were here. It was sort of like a sixth sense. She turned and looked to see Alucard and she immediately tensed up. When he made note of her arrival, she showed herself. She quickly went near liz, but it seemed the vampire wasn't confrontational so much as bantering. She turned to Liz and responded "Liz? Whoa. What's up?"

[Deleted]

"Hmmm..." Liz hummed, resuming her old position as she crossed her arms again, eyeying Alucard with wary orbs. "Uh-huh. Right. Whatever you say man." She retorted flatly. "Then why are you still here? It's not like you have much else to stay for-I mean, what information could there be left?" She continued to muddle and puzzle the information cognitively until it struck her. "Unless you want to take down Facili-"

The divine being was then cut off by the presence of another spirit, a familiar one no less that had once shared the same fate as her; being dead and still trapped on this Godforsaken planet. IHeart. Her energy was familiar, so Liz wasn't fazed when she made herself visible, instead she perked up with an excited smile on her face. "IHeart. Hey long time now see!" She exclaimed, allowing her to come closer in case Alucard tried to do anything. "Not much, just trying to get this goon of my back." She grinned, pointing a mocking thumb at the dark creature she had been conversating with.

[Alucard]

"How I do my work isn't entirely your concern, angel" Alucard responded but unlike previously, he wasn't scoffing. He was just being a little defensive. He was about to confirm her response when the angel and the young girl began chatting. He nodded when the young girl addressed to him "Indeed I am. It's a pleasure to meet your acquaintance, madame. But unfortunately not in the way it should be. Facilier didn't really need to send you to your fate" He shook his head. Facilier's actions were completely and utterly incorrect to the "Right way" to kill according to the vampire.

"Yes angel. It's true. I am not loyal to him and plan to take him from his throne. I come from my true master who ordered me to search for the enemy and destroy it. Now that I found it, I have every intention to fix this" His voice was lowered in case actually alive people heard him. He made it sure only the two in front of him could hear. He shrugged and responded "Who you tell it to might not matter, unless they can't keep secrets. I expect you to tell only those imprisoned or not on Facilier's side, if I know you to be true, angel"
XXXXXXX

"I'm glad to see you Liz. Wow. You look like a angel!" IHeart then realized how dumb that sounded and blushed. She then turned as Liz pointed to the vampire in front of them. IHeart then snapped her fingers "Wait, this is that alucard guy! He's a really powerful vampire!" She then nodded softly, not as confrontational as Liz, and was trying to be polite even in death. However Alucard's comment made her both flattered and confused. Then he admitted something truly amazing. He was planning to take over or at least set things right. "B-but how? He's very powerful and what if he defeats you? I get it's your order or whatever but still"

[Deleted]

"Rude." The once human turned angel commented on the subject of minding her own business, wings dissappearing like vapor as she spoke. Her attention briefly turned to IHeart, ready to respond before being interrupted by Alucard. Brows knitting with disgust.

"Wait, wait, wait...are you telling me you could've stopped this batshit mess this entire time, and all you did was just sit back and do nothing?" She asked, a sudden jolt in the atmosphere,almost out of complete coincidence-began to turn the sky darker than it was before, traces of stars dissappearing and thunder beginning to rumble from above. She then thought about if this selfish asshole actually did something. Her life...and many others could've been spared, her friends wouldn't have been imprisoned like this, and perhaps just maybe she would've had the chance to truly return home. Now, she realized that reality could never be true thanks to this nonchalant vampire on a mission to appease his superior. "Are you fucking kidding me?" She questioned, her true angelic voice poking through, a beautiful yet ear piercing sound that could shatter windows and if she didn't turn properly control it, a sound most definitely fatal to the mortal ear. Luckilly, IHeart and Alucard would most likely be immune to her cry, but it would certainly hurt or even frighten them if they allowed it.

[Alucard]

(OCC: Bleh. This is the best explanation I could do without making Alucard look like a real piece of shit)

Alucard somewhat expected Liz to take it the wrong way. Integra's orders were technically cut and dry. That's exactly what he was told to do. Stay on a side and not do anything until he got all the answers. His powers literally could not work unless he believed he had everything right. Unfortunately he got the answers too late. He was about to say this when Liz screamed out her divine rage. Alucard's ears, due to his demonic nature, were not injured but they definitely didn't take kindly to such holy noise. The vampire shouted out a little in pain, covering his ears. At least one window cracked and another cracked even more. Alucard didn't care, his ears were somewhat in pain.

"Listen you impatient angel!" Alucard said while covering his ears "My master's orders limit my powers. Unless the time is right and I have more information, which I do now, I cannot activate my powers. I am within a powerful contract. I have been for years! Now stop your incessant screaming!" He just wanted Liz to stop.
XXXXX

IHeart, however, was neither a angel or a demon. So despite being a spirit, the noise was loud. Although it didn't hurt her, it just scared her. Immensely. Holiness to this degree made Liz far more intimidating than should have been allowed. Although IHeart understood and was in fact angry herself in a way, she knew that getting so rageful to this point might cause a ruckus and get them caught. IHeart though, thanks to the loud noise, quickly shivered. "Liz" IHeart timidly responded "I'm angry too but we need to calm down" She didn't want to piss Liz off further so she went over and tried to comfort her physically

[Deleted]

The angel ducked in a breath and released. "Sorry, just got...a litter carried away." She looked down at her shoes, speaking to IHeart before staring up at the windows she unintentionally shattered then up to the night sky as the clouds and whatever trace of an upcoming storm began to fade from existence.

However,Liz's gaze did harden as she faced Alucard again, only this time being cautious in how she channeled her still youthful abilities. "Okay, so now you're off your 'contract' I take it?" She mocked the vampire, using her hands as air quotes. "Facilier's been top dog for a while now, just when are you going to do something about it?" Liz asked, emphasis on the word 'when' as her patience wore thin both physically and mentally.

Gabriel had considered himself a lucky man, or angel for that matter. It seemed like he was an expert at slipping through tight situations, including the final conflict that took place between good and evil. "The one time I picked a side, and of course the world turns into shitsville," He commented to himself, a sad chuckle escaping him as he inspected the ruin of a city that was once the legendary Chicago. The city was a little windy for his taste, but made up for it in excellent cuisine. Out of all the places the archangel traveled within the country, the only place that rivaled Chicago pallette wise wpuld be the Big Apple itself.

Now only memories of a legacy remained. History and peace damaged as he walked the area. It was a bold mood on Gabriel's part, especially since he was technically a fugitive on the run-a powerful being such as himself needed to be eliminated, or so that's what Facilier's forces believed. Gabriel scoffed at the notion. "Please," He rolled his eyes "Like that loon in a top hat has that much power to stop me."" Either way, just as a measure of precaution, the trickster kept out of eyesight, just in case.

Had he had been his old self, he would've abandoned the Critic's ship long ago, but he had changed with time and did forge relations with a majority of his comrades, even if some were healthier than others. He felt loyalty to his new family, a much less screwed up one than his true family, so he was at least gracious for the actual family feel that the Heroes' side provided. He had to help somehow, but Gabriel knew the time wasn't ripe. Soon though, soon.

Hands in his jacket pockets, he was inspecting the damage of a flipped over car, but not before a cry rang into his ears. The cry of an angel. It wasn't a powerful cry, but it was strong, potent enough he could hear it from where he was. A smug grin traced on his lips as he snapped his fingers and now was present where, the vampire, ghost and angel where. "Whoa, whoa brown eyes. Learn to control that thing would ya?" Grin of confidence still planted on his face as he inspected Liz over, impressed at what she had become. "Looks like Dad took care of you well, not bad." He would've made a pass at the female angel, if it weren't for the fact that they were now related again. Sure, he got away with it from time to time in the past, but now, he only saw her as a neurotic little sister he needed to protect.

He then wheeled about to see IHeart and Alucard. IHeart, he recognized as one of the Heroes' right off the bat, as for the vampire king...it took him a moment to register. "Sup' kid, and..." He falsely squinted his eyes, figuring this as a good time to mess with one of the enemy's mooks. "And let me guess..ah-wait I got it! Played hockey with you in high school." He snapped and pointed at Alucard, a mocking grim on his face, as if he were challenging him.

[Alucard]

Alucard was busy with the confrontational Liz and the passive IHeart when Gabriel came into the scene. Because of previous information and some random encounters, Alucard wa smuch less apprehensive or cautious with Gabriel. If anything Alucard had only tolerence because of Gabriel's divine background, what with his father being GOD after all. The vampire ignored Gabriel's comment, seeing no bother anymore to tease the angel and replied "And you are a fugitive are you not? Where have you been all this time while the rest of your friends have been imprisoned or murdered hmmm?" His tone was not confrontational but it was definitely not friendly. He was in no mood for Gabriel's playfulness. Thanks to Liz nearly breaking his eardrums.
XXXXXX

Not long after Spoony came into the scene. He was killed due to "being too much into the action" that and being disrespectful to Malachite far too often when alive. He was tortured and shown as a example to those other heroes. Spoony's death was a disgrace frankly. Linkara and Critic's were no better but Spoony was judged especially thanks to Facilier's sons and facilier himself not taking too kindly to Spoony's treatment of malachite during the past. Spoony saw IHeart stand up to Alucard but he was protective of her and grabbed her away from the vampire "IHeart. I don't care if you're dead, you don't mock a vampire king" Spoony then turned to Gabriel and responded "Oh hey! I was wondering where you were" His tone was sad but very, very pleased at the same time. Although dead, Spoony was glad to see those he liked live.
XXXXXX

"You're one to talk" IHeart replied annoyedly at Alucard. She replied back "If there's one thing Liz is right about, is that you took way too long to act. Don't get so high-uppy. You don't talk to my friends that way. Vampire or not" Then spoony came and grabbed her away and IHeart remembered he too was a spirit of the dead. A fact that both hurt and pleased her. She hugged him tightly before turning to Gabriel. She smiled happily "I'm glad to see you, Gabe. I was worried before... well.. my incident"
