The first Fallen Angel to walk in had the appearance of a middle-aged, gruff-looking man, with short black hair, matching beard, and a muscular body.
He wore a dark-green robe, with what appeared to be high-tech body-armour underneath. This was Baraqiel, a high-ranking Cadre in the Grigori.
He was a ten-winged Fallen Angel though his wings were hidden right now.
The second person was a woman that appeared to be in her late-twenties. Her hair was jet-black, and her eyes were green. She wore a shrine maiden's outfit.
This was Shuri Himejima, Baraqiel's wife and Fallen Saints Queen the Fallen Saints had been developed as a result of the alliance treaty, signed by representatives of both Grigori and Heaven, as a counterpart to the Brave Saints, Heaven's system of creating new Angels in the absence of the possibility of Palutena being able to create Angels, like her Father had done, and the mother of Akeno Himejima.
Tobio looked up from the bar after serving Lavinia some fruit-juice.
"Oh, hey Baraqiel, Shuri." Tobio greeted his aunt and uncle. "Shuri, before you ask, Rex isn't here. He just left about a minute ago."
"Damn!" Shuri muttered. "I wanted to talk to Rex about something!"
'Oh, I wonder what about?' Tobio thought, dryly.

Month 3
"Excellent, Mirajane." Valian whispered, just loud enough for Rias' Queen to hear her, as the white-haired wielder of 'Take Over' sat, cross-legged, with her hands folded at her lap, eyes closed, in deep meditation, while Valian sat opposite to her. "Deep breath..."
Mirajane did as instructed, heaving a slow, deep sigh, feeling a new wave of relaxation overtake her.
"Very good." Valian whispered. "You're a natural at this."
Quiet dominated the air around them, settling down on the two Sacred Gear wielders, as thick as the snow got during a Russian winter. Minutes passed.
"Aaaaannd..." Valian muttered. "Open your eyes."
On command, Mirajane opened her blue eyes, and took a breath.
"Thanks, Valian." Rias' Queen spoke. I'm surprised that I've never explored the possibility of meditating before."
"Well, given that Rias' peerage seems to rely on power, I'm not surprised that anyone hasn't thought of taking a more supportive option in battle, especially when you all, with the possible exception of Kiba, have the potential to." Valian replied.
"You chief amongst them, since in raw magical power, I can sense you outmatch Rias, who prefers to use her Power of Destruction, and only resorts to magic when the Power of Destruction doesn't work. Or when she needs to subdue you."
"That's right." Mirajane replied. "She learnt sleep-inducement magic for that very reason."
"Yeah, I guessed as much." Valian remarked. "Anyway, meditation is a much better, and far more healthy option, for controlling a Sacred Gear, especially one like yours, that has such a high potential for its wielder to go out of control."
"Indeed." Mirajane replied. "Since I have a Stray Devil, a Demonic Dragon and a Demonic Elf sealed inside this gear."
Valian nodded, and stood up.
"Yeah." The silver-haired descendent of Lucifer replied. "Now. How about a quick spar?"
"Sure." Mirajane replied, and before Valian's eyes, a dark light seemed to come over her, and over time, it slowly began to become more intense.
Once it cleared, in a large, dark explosion, a different-looking Mirajane stood before Valian, who spread her eight Devil wings.
Mirajane's eyes had become darker, and her eyelashes had grown larger, with a dark, thin marking in a light zigzag-style vertically crossing her right eye.
Similar markings were present above her right breast, and on both of her bare thighs. Her hair had become wilder, jutting upwards while getting curlier, with her front ponytail growing longer.
Her ears had enlarged, extending backwards and getting pointed edges. She also gained sharp, canine teeth, and her lips seemed to have become covered in dark lipstick.
Her forearms and hands had received noticeable changes, becoming covered in scales and each sprouting a fin-like protrusion on its outer side. She also grew a large, stocky tail that seemed to be made of metal plates or scales, getting smaller and smaller near its end.
Mira's clothing had also changed, with her school uniform being replaced by a dark, skimpy one-piece suit, which revealed her arms and legs, and was open on the front and back, exposing most of her belly and large cleavage.
Her clothing had golden-coloured edges taking on spiky shapes, and her similarly spiky collar was tied around the neck by a cravat tie.
Her shoulders were tied in thin belts protruding from her one-piece suit, and her feet were covered by matching, high-heeled thigh-high boots, which were decorated by lighter motifs on their upper parts, taking on the shapes of jagged blades pointing downwards on the front of her thighs. She also donned a pair of gauntlets covering the back parts of her transformed arms.
Mirajane, after spreading her six Devil wings, flew at Valian and attempted to wrap her tail around her, but Valian flew out of the way, and snapped her fingers.
A magic-circle opened in front of her, and a large shard of ice flew from it, and it was bang on course to hit Mirajane, if she hadn't countered with a wave of boiling water, which melted the ice-shard on contact.
Mirajane flew at Valian, and attempted to claw at her face, but Valian teleported backwards a few yards, and flung a blast of lightning at Rias' white-haired Queen.
Even when Mirajane extended both her hands and sent a large ball of lightning of her own at Valian to counter the attack, Valian's attack was still powerful enough to hit and damage her, as it was used in combination with the Primordial Power of Darkness, the power that Valian had inherited from her father, Lucian Lucifer who inherited it from HIS father, Rizevim Livan Lucifer, who inherited it from HIS father, Valian's great-grandfather, and Rex' grandfather, Lucifer himself.
