he was vaguely aware that someone was screaming, but it.. It was so far away.
Right now, the only thing he was aware of was the /heat/ enveloping his heart, and the snug look on Gabriel's face, warping a little at the edges, but smirking down at him none the less.
the air warped in front of him, rippling in heat waves from the ethereal flames pouring off the heavenly blade protruding from his chest.
stabbed in the back. how oddly appropriate.
Crowley is still screaming bloody murder off in the background, as Micheal pushes the blade deeper. it's her long sword - not meant for stabbing, but doing the job none the less. it also means there's more blade to come, and Aziraphale moves quickly. When he feels her bracing to drive it deeper, he grasped the lapel of Gabriel immaculate suit, and uses every bit of his angelic strength to pull the archangel into a gruesome hug.
Micheal can't stop in time, not positioned correctly to try and withdraw the blade, and Gabriel doesn't have a chance to make a noise as her blade is driven though his chest. Aziraphale holds him in place, wrapping arms around his torso, fighting both tears and a smile.
too late for either of them, Micheal frees her blade, the angel steel clattering to the ground as she drops it to try and wrangle Gabriel free of the death hug. the flames had burned the corporation's blood away, leaving only bright gold dust of their true forms to spill into the air. the force of Micheal's efforts into tearing them apart causing Aziraphale to stumble backwards as Gabriel collapses into her arms.
if e could hear, Aziraphale would hear the cursing and smiting being attempted behind him as Uriel and Sandelphon's attempt to control their hold on the demon, but Crowley wins in the end. he may not be fighter, but he's always been as slippery as a snake, and getting away from trouble has been his strong suit- even to his own detriment - since the beginning. he's as Aziraphale's side before the angel can crumple, holding him tight, shaking trembling hands ghosting over the mortal wound that tore his friend in two.
