“Maddie, please, calm down!” James begged, trying to soothe her. “Wayne saved Brittany, and that’s what he was sent down to do. He did it, Maddie, he did it…” Maddie gave a small, hiccupping sob as James held her close. “…he did it…” he repeated softly. “…oh, God, why did he have to die again? He had so much promise…so much life…”

The other angel with them gave the two a small nod. “Madigan, James…would you please go meet him at the front gate?”
