Ezekiel and the Earl crossed through the portal into Azrael's office on the Cathedral. Danny Ketch and a strange girl in a fur bikini were already sitting in a pair of chairs in front of the desk.
Azrael takes his seat and lets silence fill the room for a few moments before rising up again. "Can someone tell me what you did wrong today?"

Ezekiel frowned and glanced at the girl. "Um ... wh- who is she?" He asked, half out of curiosity and half to put off Azrael shouting at him.

"Amazon, Fa" The girl starts to say but then stops and pauses as she tries to remeber the word.
"Jane of the Jungle is called Amazon. She's our Famine." Danny snaps abruptly cutting the girl off.
Azrael glares at the group. "Watch your tone Daniel you are not off the hook either. Jack Frost is still alive and he knows too much to be allowed to live."

"W-wait, do we mean Jack Frost CEO of Smart Brain?" Ezekiel asked "What did he do?"

"Orpenach Jack Rider. Lied about forest. Wanted to destroy." Amazon says darkly her tiny hands curling into fists.
"He's a Kamen Rider, one that Amazon and Danny were supposed to kill." Azrael explains idly.
"I would have got him if I didn't have to baby sit Tarzan. You're all just slowing me down." Danny snaps.
Azrael raises his hand to silence Danny who reluctantly complies. "We will discuss your failures soon enough. For now Ezekiel, why did you cure the Yellow Ranger?"

"She was fourteen," Ezekiel said, maybe making a joke would help "I- I mean she's having to deal with puberty so she's go-got p-periods and boys and girl stuff on her mind, the last thing she needs is a super-lethal diseassssse," He trailed off and looked down at his feet. Maybe a joke wasn't the best idea ...

"She also has a demon riding copilot in her soul." Azrael says.
"A demon that she put there herself willingly. A demon who..." Azrael starts to rant but stops himself mid sentence.
"Look have you ever read any H.P. Lovecraft?"

"... I read half of call of Cthulu," Ezekiel said leaving out the fact that he hadn't read it all because it was too scary.

"You should read more. They are mostly accurate. Hastur is an entity greater than Cthulu, it makes the dreamer look like poodle and it is inside that little girl's head. Killing her would have been a mercy." Azrael explains as he goes to his bookshelf and tosses Ezekiel a copy of Lovecraft's best known short stories.

"Um ... thanks," Ezekiel said "B-but ... why do we have to poison all of Toronto's water supply ... if w-we're only fighting the demons?"

"Toronto's water cleansing system is actually quite redundant. None of your plauge would have made it to the population's drinking water but it would draw out he demon possed children who fancy themselves heroes." Azrael lied, in fact the Plauge would have killed millions before it could be contained.
"Even if it would have who are you to question the will of God. Even I am but his servent in these dark days. If he wills the population of a major Canadian city to die from an excrutiating disease then we make the population of a major city cry us a river of blood."

"But ... but it isn't Gods will," Ezekiel said, his voice very quiet "It's yours, isn't it? I mean we haven't met God ... how do we know this is what he wants? Maybe you're just like those pricks in W-Westboro ... or Islamic fundamentalists ... just using religion as a weapon?"

"You are mortals. You are unable to meet your creator until Death and only if you are judged worthy. Anything else would drive you beyond madness. I am as close that you will ever see while breathe still sits in your lungs." Azrael explains. "As for religion, neither I nor the Trinity could care less what you mortals decide to worship. In the end all good men go to Heaven and everyone else goes to Hell. Regardless of what beliefs lead them to that particular path."

"B-but what's good and what's bad?" Asked Ezekiel "I- I mean there's the bible, the Torah, the Qoran ... how do we know what's good and bad when you give us all these contradicting options?"

"You gave yourselves all of those. Ultimately it just came down to not making the world a worse place to live. Unfortunately enough of you have screwed that simple task up and now we got to tip it over the edge to hit the reset button." Azrael explains again.
