Dumah and Ariel landed back on the ground. Both looked at Mukuro with the latter still stunned to see their wings.
"Ikusaba our deal is up," Dumah said as he reached out a hand with his and Ariel's wings vanishing.
"I'll pass on the handshake. I'm happy everything is over," Mukuro said, shaking her head.
"Suit yourself," Dumah said as he folded his arms.
"I remember you saying that Ariel has plans for me after this was over. Can I ask what those plans are and your plans for that matter?"
"Since Togami is now dead," Ariel said. "I aim to become the boss, and I want you to become my right-hand woman. It will be work business. No more Nephilim stuff."
Mukuro put her head down to think.
"As for my plans, I'm going to become a politician and one day become Prime Minister as Ariel raises up the ranks to become Commissioner General of the National Police Agency. Then we will work together to ensure a golden age for children to have happy childhoods and not the ones that Ariel and I have suffered."
Mukuro's head shot up and looked at Dumah. "Wait, this was your grand plan all along?"
"Yes," he nodded. "Don't think you could have avoided this whole thing if you knew the truth. I would have lied to you to ensure you were my mole."
Mukuro shook her head in disgust.
Dumah looked at Byakuya's corpse, and it made him smile.
"Ikusaba," Ariel said. "I will not force you into my plans. If you don't want to be my number two or even if you want to leave and start afresh. I will not stop you."
Mukuro looked up at Ariel. But before she got a chance to reply. She saw three women wearing white dresses appear behind Ariel and Dumah. Then she saw a man wearing a white suit sappear and lastly she saw Lucifer appear.
"Makoto," Sara said softly.
"Kyoko," Nico said softly.
Both Nephilim's eyes widened, and they both turned around to see their respective parents and Kaede.
"Mum?" Both Nephilim said at the same time.
"Hello again, my son," Sara said warmly.
Dumah rushed forward and hugged his mother. "I've missed you so much, mother."
"As have I Makoto," she whispered stroking the back of the head.
Ariel rushed into her mother's welcome arms. "Mother," she said softly.
"Kyoko," Nico said warmly.
Mukuro looked on stunned, she can't believe Ariel had this side to her.
Dumah and Ariel let go of their respective mothers and looked at Kaede.
"It's been a while, hasn't it?" Kaede smiled.
"It has," Dumah said sadly.
"What's wrong, Dumah?" Kaede asked.
"Regret mostly, that we couldn't find a way to cure your Tuberculosis. You deserved a longer life than you did."
Kaede shook her head. "Like I said to you 200 years ago. Death comes to us all. There was no cure to Tuberculosis during my time. So, don't beat yourself over it. Thanks to you and Ariel. I lived a happy life. Now, I'm best friends with your mother and Nico. Also, I get to bully the Devil to become a better father for you."
Dumah started to laugh.
"Ariel," Kaede said softly. "I'm happy to see you again."
"Same here," Ariel said warmly. "So, what is like being best friends with our mums?"
"Sara and Nico are both cool ladies, and we have got one thing in common. Our love for you and Dumah. Both of them were grateful that I went out of my way to look after both of you."
Sara walked forward and stood in front of Mukuro and slowly grabbed the latter's hands and held them.
"Ikusaba," Sara said softly. "I'm sorry that my son dragged you into this and Lucifer scaring you."
"It's fine…" Mukuro said, lost for words. She was touching a dead spirit.
"You say that, but I can tell you are feeling regret."
"I will live with it…" Mukuro sighed.
Sara looked concerned then she turned her head to look at Lucifer. "Use your magic and give Ikusaba 100 million yen."
"Make me!" Lucifer grinned.
Sara lets go of Mukuro's hands, and she turned around and walked towards the Devil. Lucifer gulped and quickly snapped his fingers.
Mukuro let out a gasp of disbelief when she saw a black suitcase floating in front of her.
Sara turned back around to face Mukuro. "I know money doesn't get rid of guilt. But with this money, you can restart your life afresh if you want."
Mukuro grabbed the case, and it felt weird that she became rich. "Thank you," she said with a weak smile.
Sara turned to face Dumah and Ariel. "Makoto, now that the Togami bloodline has ended. I want you to leave all of your anger and hate behind."
"Same here," Nico said. "Ariel, this is a new start for you and Makoto. Look forward and not backwards. I know our deaths have caused you and Makoto pain. But please look forward and be happy."
"Both of your mothers are right," Kaede said. "Today is a new start for both of you. Please enjoy a peaceful and happy life."
"We will," Ariel nodded. Then she looked at her father. "It's nice to see you again, father."
"Likewise," Raphael replied. Then Nico elbowed him in the ribs. "I…er…wondering if you wanted to spend time with me. A father and daughter bonding during a meal."
"I would like that very much," Ariel smiled warmly.
"Oh wow, I can't believe our mothers and Kaede bully angels," Dumah said laughing.
Nico shook her head. "Considering these two have not bothered to see their own children in the last 200 years. Sara, Kaede and I felt that needed changing."
"The King of Hell bullied by three women," Ariel said with a small laugh. "Well, I suppose we better tidy up the place and get rid of the bodies."
"I will do that," Lucifer said as snapped his fingers.
Mukuro's eyes widened in horror as she saw a portal appear next to Byakuya's corpse and a skeleton hand appeared through the portal and grabbed Byakuya's body and dragged it into Hell.
'Hopefully, the skeleton hand appearing will scare Ikusaba enough to never considering stabbing my son and Ariel in the back someday,' Lucifer thought. "I will be sending that Asahina woman to hell as well," Lucifer said. "She deserved it for being a loose cannon and spitting Ariel's shoe."
"So, I guess this is goodbye?" Dumah said to his mother.
She nodded. "Yes, it is," she smiled. The pair hugged for the last time. "Keep safe, my son. I will always love you."
"I love you too," Dumah whispered.
Nico and Ariel hugged. "Keep safe, Kyoko. I love you."
"I love you too, mum."
Once the hugging was over. Kaede hugged both of Nephilim at the same time. "Keep safe, you two. Remember to look forward and not back."
Kaede pulled away and waved as did Nico and Sara. Dumah, Ariel and Mukuro watched the three women vanish.
"You're in trouble you know that brother?" Raphael said to Lucifer,
"Ah, who cares, I don't care what our old man says," Lucifer replied. "Dumah I will leave you be for now so you can clean up. But I will see you at some point."
"Of course, father," Dumah nodded.
Lucifer began to rub his hands. "Now if all of you will excuse me, I have a brand new Togami to torture," he grinned.
A portal appeared beside him. He jumped into the portal, and it vanished.
"Father," Ariel said softly. "I will need time, as well. Can we hold off meeting up until we can obliterate Togami and Hina from public life."
"Yes," Raphael nodded. "I will watch and pick a time when its best. Until then keep safe Ariel and to you Dumah."
Raphael vanished, leaving Mukuro stunned.
"Ah, crap!" Dumah groaned.
"What is it?" Ariel asked.
"I forgot to put my ring on Togami's skin! It would have been good to see him suffer so more."
"Shame," Ariel sighed.
"Oh well, come on, let's get out of here," Dumah said to Ariel and Mukuro.
Next day
Police station
Ariel and Mukuro were standing staff room with other members of staff as they watched 'Byakuya' give an announcement.
"Ladies and gentlemen. I'm after much thought, I've decided that I will be leaving my job in the next few weeks. As will be Hina. We both need fresh starts, and we are taking steps to get married and have a family in the future. Working for the police will make us targets."
There was a lot of talk going on among the staff.
"I will be making Kirigiri my successor. I haven't made this decision lightly. Not even my area boss know. That I've made this decision to leave. I will have more news in the next few days until then everybody can go. Apart from Kirigiri and Ikusaba."
Everyone left the staff room.
"That is the first step done," Dumah said. "Now it's onto my plan."
Ariel looked at Mukuro. "Have you given much thought about becoming my number two?"
"I will do it," Mukuro said. "I can leave at any point since I have the money."
"Fair enough."
"Ariel," Dumah said. "I will be going over to Togami's house later and begin to clear out the place."
"I will join you, and we will recover all Nephilim related things."
"What are you going to do with the house?" Mukuro asked. "Keep it as a stronghold or sell it."
"Hmm," Dumah said, folding his arms.
"I'm happy with my flat," Ariel said. "I'll leave Dumah with that decision."
"I'm not sure yet," Dumah said. "Do you want it, Ikusaba?"
"I will need to see it first," she replied.
"Fine, you can come with us and check the place out for yourself."
A week later
Dumah's apartment
Dumah and Chisa were in the former's apartment talking about his plans for the future.
"You're going into politics?" Chisa said stunned.
"Yip," Dumah nodded. "It's something I want to do."
"How come? You are making easy money with your voice acting."
"I want to give children a happy childhood growing up. Sick, rich and poor alike. I lost my mum when I was a child. I don't want any kids to suffer with what I went through."
"I'm guessing you don't need me anymore," Chisa said.
"What makes you say that?" Dumah smiled. "Regardless of me changing jobs. I would like you to still be my PA."
"Really?" Chisa said stunned. "I honestly thought you were ready to get rid of me. Because I dating your father…well rather was."
"Yeah, sorry about that you dating my old man was bad news," Dumah sighed.
"It's alright, I understand now."
"Wait, you do?" Dumah said, shocked.
"Yes," Chisa nodded. "I mulled over your words regarding your father saying to me if I do anything bad then I will find out what he does a for a living. At first, I thought he was a lawyer. But the biggest hint was staring me in the face. His name is Lucifer, and it became clear to me that he is the Devil."
"Yip," Dumah sighed. "My old man is the King of Hell."
"I knew it!" Chisa said, feeling proud of herself. "So, what are you then? Angel or half-angel?"
"The correct term would be Nephilim. Look it up when you have the time."
"Ok, I will," Chisa nodded. "I always thought there was something more to you. Because I like said before. You can perfectly mimic someone else's voice."
"It's a power that I have," Dumah said. "Anyway, since you learn the truth about my father and me. Do you still want to work for me?"
"I need to know something first, do you have any hidden motives that could be evil?"
"No," Dumah said honestly. "I want to live a happy life…I've suffered for a long time. Now, I've finally been able to let go of that suffering. I want to make Japan a safe place to live in. Improve health care for all the children who as sick and are stuck in children's hospitals. I'm repeating myself, aren't I?"
Chisa shook her head. "No, it proves how serious you are in making your dreams a reality."
"So, are you willing to still be my PA?"
"Of course!" Chisa beamed. "Please tell me that you're going to be the Prime Minister one day. Because that would look good on my CV."
Dumah burst out laughing. "Well, funny that you should mention about becoming PM…"
Three years later
The general elections had finished, and Makoto Naegi's party had gained an overwhelming share of the votes. Which meant he became Japan's new Prime Minister.
Dumah rose through the ranks of the party he joined three years ago. Thanks to his charisma and the promises he made and kept. Also, a little bit of blackmail helped matters.
During the past three years, Ariel's skills on the field impressed the former Prime Minister she flew up the ranks. Ariel rose to become Commissioner General of the National Police Agency thanks to a little bit of blackmail.
But now with Dumah as Prime Minister Ariel's role was now secured. Now she and Dumah could walk together, ensuring a golden era of peace for Japan.
Mukuro had moved into Byakuya's former home after seeing the size of it. The guilt still plagued her from time to time. But every time she met up with her sister or watched Junko perform at a fashion show on the telly. Mukuro felt she made the right choice.
Mukuro had also become the boss of the police station and often bypass her area boss to spoke to Ariel directly over funding.
Dumah stood in front of the press just outside the Prime Minister's Official Residence. While Ariel watched on in the background. Dumah was about to make his first speech as Prime Minister. Chisa couldn't make it as she was busy arranging dates for business meetings for the new Prime Minister.
"Thank you, ladies and gentlemen," Dumah smiled. "First of, I want to say to the people who voted for me. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. This means a lot to me become Prime Minister of this great country. I promise you and everyone who didn't vote for me. I will ensure crime is wiped from the streets allowing kids, adults and pensioner are able to feel safe. I will cut global aid down by 60% and spend 30% of it on children's hospitals and the other 30% will go public funding."
Dumah looked over towards Ariel and give her a small nod. Then looked back to the media."
"I look forward to working with Commissioner General of the NPA Kyoko Kirigiri and hopefully together we can work together to ensure a time of peace. Which other countries will take note off, I will do my best to ensure this country is the best country around the world, but of course, steps will need to be taken to ensure this can happen. But my mark my words. It will happen sooner rather than later. Thank you, everyone!"
Dumah looked at Ariel and signalled her to come over which she did. The pair shook hands for the camera. Then they headed inside the building to begin their plan.
Years later
Over the years, Japan enjoyed a golden era of peace and children hospitals were given a boost in funding. Public funding went up as well. Overall people enjoyed having Makoto Naegi as their Prime Minister.
After eight years in charge. Dumah stepped at the general election. While Ariel stepped down from her role. Two reasons, the first reason was the pair weren't ageing, and people would begin to ask questions. Secondly, the pair needed a break. Running a country was hard and demanding.
The two Nephilim vanished out of the public eye never to be seen again.
