In the twilight of the setting sun, the city of shanties grew quiet, as the sound of a blast rang through the empty streets. And, as a figure fell from the skies, crashing in the humble gutter of a smoky backalley, the Baron appeared. Tall and slim, in black jeans and an open shirt of flashy red and purple designs, the bushy haired man stalked the now-crawling being with paced steps. As the heat of his presence exhaled into steaming breath, Baron Xango watched his bounty. “Ejazamec. He who purpose is to Watch! Yuh been doin’ much more dan watchin’, eh?”, the deadly hunter read the bounty paper, hanging in one hand, as he steadied the paper with the still sizzling revolver that has barreled two holes through the man’s gut, "reproducing wit mortal gyals, starting bloody revolts inna dis country, inna dat country. Witchcraft wit demons, and enslaving humans. Plottin' di downfall of di Church...A 'crusader of di Lord?'...Well, di Almighty isn't enjoying yuh work. And, Miguel tasked mi with dealing wit ye.".
Lying upon the cold ground, the angel, with a gaping hole digging through his stomach and his right wing, tried to turn over. “Perdoname pa’ tu ala…couldn’t have you flying away. They don’t want you up there, anymore…”, the spirit apologized for scorching off the fallen one’s wing. But, in return, he was met with scorn and passionate anger. “أيها الوغد الدموي”, he spat back in what Xango could only guess was Arabic? Perhaps an insult…judging from the tone and furious expression. Driving the son of the saints to become more frank, “Mi have no clue what tongue yuh speak, Watcher…”, he looked down as the bloody figure, as it gasped for air, staring at the heavens and wondering who would hire a hedonistic pagan to hunt him. “-you murdered my child, you damn pagan reaper!”, Ejazamec gritting his teeth, as blood erupted from his lips. Leaving the spirited hunter to sign at the rightiouesness of angels. Even thouse who fall still hold themselfs to be higher than Xango's kind. “An angel wit a child. That be yuh first problem, papi!”, Xango smirked as he eyed the dying Watcher. “Pero, I’m short on time. Ya tu sabe, con mi trabajo. So, en’l luz de mi dio. El quien es el, Te destierro al inferno. Vaya con dio’. Yo rezo en la nombre de la madre, el nino, mi padre…”, Xango prayed upon the fallen angel, in his native West Indian Spanish, he ignored the fiery spats of Arabic insults, as he rose his revolver to the line of head’s sight. And, with a fiery flash of fire, the bullet combusted into flames. Burning the angel until it was fully incinerated into ashes, and blown away in the smoky wind, Xango slowly stepped out of the shadowy alley.
Looking up into the setting sun, eying the layers of purples and orange, he eyed heaven. “Mi hope yuh pleased, Miguel.”, he muttered, as he fetched his cigar. Snapping his fingers to light it, and savouring the flavored taste, he closed his eyes as he heard his mother’s tongue. “Child, watch yourself…the Nephilim is after you…”, she whispered in his head, leaving him to sulk in his annoyance of dealing with angels. Standing upon the brick paved streets, he looked for a bar to get some peppered rum. Rubbing the black and purple beads of his parents, he thought to them, as he waited for his car to finally catch up to him. And, with a sign, he thought to the remaining children of his target, “…today just isn’t mi day”. And, finally seeing a bar at the end of the block, he finally noticed people. Hit with the thought of how they didn't hear the gunshots and dying angel, he remembered how good the inner-city dwellers are at ignoring the spiritual realm. So, Xango began his pursuit of relaxation, with the hugging of some bolero tune in his head.
