He might not have been large but he was fast. Letting go of Gabriel, he skirted Uriel and ran to where Michael was on his knees.
"Michael!" He cried. "Why Michael why... you shouldn't have tried to stop him, I told you to forget me... I'm sorry Michael, you shouldn't have even been here..."
He stopped just short of the being and fell to his knees himself and stretched out a hand towards him.
