Azazel and Maria were alone amongst the corpses. They had been defenseless against the shadows and all the apes had fallen victim to it. Azazel felt the same pull that Michael had to one of the corpses. Any of their features could become his, if he wanted.

Michael noticed that the boy seemed to be watching him, showing to have known they were there but interested in the woman more than him. He squeezed her gauntlet-ed hand and glared at her, baring his fangs.

It wasn't long at all before Dimitri felt a presence nearby. The presence sent a shiver down the man's back and an inkling of fear. Whatever was by Dimitri did not show itself, basically having him jump at shadows, no matter how fast he looks or how sure he thinks he is about having it.
