Luis had stayed in the lab with Michael discussing matters related to Angels, the two had been there for quite a while now as the sun had begun to set.
"You've found out a lot about yourself," Michael said.
"Yeah but I don't think that's all that is left to be found out," Luis said, looking at the locked shelf.
Michael followed his gaze to the shelf and then turned back to the Angel.
"I'll find a way to open it, I promise but for now you'll have to try and find out as much about yourself as possible," Michael said.
"I know you will," Luis said.
"A few years ago I was going crazy trying to find Angels on earth, never did I know an Angel would come to me," Michael said.
"Did you say you were going crazy?" Luis asked.
"Yeah, I got a little obsessed but I was over it even before I found out you were an Angel," Michael said.
There was a long period of silence between the two before Luis decided to break the silence.
"You said you wanted to become an Angel the first time we met," Luis said, looking directly into the CEO's eyes.
"Yeah," Michael said.
"I can turn you into one," Luis said.
"I know Luis," Michael said, touching the Angel's shoulders. "But I don't think now is the right time."
He walked towards the elevator and adjusted the watch on his wrist which was a teleporter.
"Are you leaving?" Luis asked.
"Yeah, it's getting late," Michael said. "Do you want to come with me?"
"No, it's already getting late, I'll just stay here and go home after work," Luis said.
"Ok, see you tomorrow then," Michael said as he pushed the button and vanished.
Now that he was gone Luis was left all alone in the room but he wasn't exactly alone.
'So you're planning on staying here for two hours now before going up there.' Lena said.
"Yeah, what else do I have to do?" The Angel said as he walked to the seat Michael had left by the side of the room and sat there.

'It's going to be a while now before I level up again and it's going to take an eternity for me to reach my next evolution.' The Angel thought.
'Don't speak like that, anytime Lucifer decides to start sending in his troops of demons, you'll have a lot of demons to help you level up.' Lena said.
'That's the problem, Lena, I want to get strong enough before that starts happening not during or after it has happened.'
'Oh.'
Luis' two hours had finally been completed as he went upstairs and went into the library to see that Emilia was the one on duty now.
"Hi, greenie," Emilia called, waving at him.
"Uhhhhh." Luis moaned as he slowly made his way to her counter.
"Hi Emilia." He said.
"How long have you been here?" Emilia asked.
"A couple of hours I guess," Luis said.
"Ok, so how was your day?" She asked.
"Normal." He had given it a thought and thought normal was the best answer to give.
The Angel turned back to see that there weren't a lot of people in the library which meant that he would have to go home early but that also meant he would have to spend his time pretending to listen to Emilia.
He thought Emilia was going to try and engage him in a conversation but he thought wrong as she had told him to go do his job while she tried to sort out some paper works on her counter.
"I guess she has a lot to do," Luis muttered to himself as he carried a bunch of books to the shelf closest to the area meant for reading.
It didn't take up to thirty minutes before the rest of the people in the library had left and Luis had finished arranging the books.
He was done with his own work and was surprised when he turned towards the counter to see that Emilia was still on her counter which had a lot of paper on it now.
"You're not done yet?" Luis asked after walking closer to the counter.
Emilia didn't reply as she tried to finish something first then she raised her head with a smile that was quite feigned given how weak her eyes looked.
"Yeah, a lot of registrations and return slips to fill up," Emilia said, returning her gaze to the paper where she was filling something with her pen.
"Can't you do it tomorrow? You look tired." Luis said.
"I haven't gotten enough sleep since yesterday but I'm okay," Emilia said quickly, returning her gaze to her work.
'I am not okay.'
Luis heard that loud and clear, she was just trying to push herself too hard to finish the work she had for the night.
She raised her head again to see that Luis was still standing there.
"Do you mind getting me some coffee from that coffee machine over there?" Emilia asked, pointing at the coffee machine attached to the wall in the area you would have to enter before getting to Michael's office.
"Ok," Luis said as he walked to the coffee machine, grabbed the mug on the table there, and filled it up with coffee.
"Here's the coffee," Luis said, slowly dropping it on the counter.
"Thanks, greenie," Emilia said as she grabbed the mug and began to sip from it.
"You're still not going to finish this tonight," Luis said, looking at the pile of paperwork on her counter.
"I know," Emilia said, dropping the mug. "But I have to try."
Luis stared at the pile of paperwork for a while before coming up with a decision.
"Maybe I can help you," Luis said.
"Huh?"
"If you show me what to do, I think I can help you," Luis said.
"Ok," Emilia said with a cheerful voice.
She quickly showed Luis how to fill up each and every single one of the papers on the counter.
The Angel quickly got to work and now that he was helping the pile of paperwork was quickly reduced until nothing was left of it.
"That's the last one," Emilia said as she transferred the last paper to the cupboard behind her. "And we actually managed to finish up early." She said looking at the wall clock which was displaying the time to be fifty minutes to ten.
"Yeah, early," Luis said.
Emilia didn't say a word as she got out from the counter and gave him quite an unexpected hug.
"Thanks, greenie, you are a really good friend." She said,
"You're welcome," Luis said.
"You should probably start heading back to your dorm room now." She said,
"Yeah see you tomorrow," Luis said heading towards the door.
'That was really sweet of you.' Lena said.
"I know," Luis said, closing the door behind him. "I had to do it since I didn't have anything else to do."
