The Prophecy 3: The Ascent Page #2

to you now. Come back to us.

We can retake

what's rightfully ours.

We can make it like it was

before the monkeys. Remember ?

Or has this place completely

befouled your senses ?

I like it here.

I even learned to drive.

You know what

your one flaw is, Gabriel ?

You only see what you want to see.

Have you ever looked around ?

Our Creator poured all His grace

into this world, but do you see it ?

- Do you see it anywhere ?

- Not yet.

Destroying Heaven

is not what I was up to, Zophael.

Not even Lucifer,

is that arrogant?

Go on.

Out of my way... monkey.

- I had to know.

Ah. Thank you

for not jamming.

Where did he go, Joseph ?

- What ?

- Where is he ?

No. You don't just stand

there straight-faced

and tell me he walked

right out of here.

- You don't do that.

- I'm sorry.

Sorry ? How am I

supposed to take that, huh ?

Probably the same way I have

for a very long time. Badly.

I just lost the only thing

I cared about...

in this whole

f***ed-up universe.

You haven't seen "badly,"

sir. Not yet.

What's it like

to wake up as dead meat...

with the buzzards circling ?

Do I know you ?

I know you from

before you were born.

Both times.

Huh ?

"Zophael. Spy of God."

"Bridge between rebel and

loyal factions within Heaven.

His true allegiance is unclear

from religious texts."

My kingdom

for a straight answer.

Pyriel. Pyriel.

Who the hell is Pyriel ?

He died in my arms.

T.O.D. was 8:
00 P.M. That

was taken six hours later.

Look. I still don't believe what

you're tryin' to tell me.

I was afraid of that.

All right. Let's go.

Where ?

There are things that ghosts

and civil servants just shouldn't know.

No. You drive.

Embryos and idiots.

I hate this place.

"ln the final hour shall come one born...

with the heart ofan angel

and the soul of a man."

Ever hear

of a nephalim ?

- A what ? - Take your

vitamins, Vincent. Good boy.

Nephalim.

Half angel, half man.

Old Testament's chock-full of 'em.

They're very nasty guys.

And very, very hard

to kill.

Am I right or am I right,

Boris. ?

Are you saying

Danyael's a nephalim ?

Am I ?

I guess I am.

Do you really

believe that ?

Look.

I've had four

gutted hermaphrodites...

burn to black pitch

right under my nose.

I've had one cop,

my best friend,

driven insane by the angels

shrieking in his head...

before somehow

spontaneously combusting...

in a madhouse he had mistaken

for a monastery.

A pretty young woman, now dead

knocked up by a stranger...

who left her three months, pregnant

in only 48 hours.

And just yesterday, a young man,

allegedly her son,

shot up six ways to sun down,,

crawled out of a drawer...

and waltzed out
