Axel noticed her flinching and flinched himself. Maybe that wasn’t the best idea but if she knew how to handle the people in front of her, it would make her life a lot easier. Her statement about them not needing lessons made his head drop, he didn’t like lying to people and he poked the toe of his boot against the ground in embarrassment and sadness. The last thing he wanted was to cause pain, worry or discomfort to people. Especially those who don’t deserve it like her.

“I thought Axel would have put that into his summery.” Alexander said with a tone of disappointment as he turned his attention to the curly haired boy who continued to look down at his feet. “From what we know Miss, we can use our powers if we are in contact with you. Meaning we can continue our duties that the king of the heavens wishes for us to do.”

“Outside of paperwork…” Cal grumbled from her spot as she crossed her arms under her chest only to receive a disapproving look from Alexander. 

“Paperwork is important and so is the actual job. If you wish to be on paperwork duty for the rest of your life I’m sure that can be arranged.”

“Director Stick in the Mud, she is my responsibility not yours.” Leon corrected in a harsh tone before turning back to Lee. “Besides, she’d much rather work with the Department of Wishes then Punishments…”

“I highly doubt that, you don’t understand morals if you work with the Department of Wishes.” Alexander smarted back at him and it wasn’t long before both of them began bickering shots at each other. 

At this point Axel stepped forward. “Um… guys…” he said timidly. “Guys… Guys…”

“DIRECTORS SHUT UP!” Cal’s voice rang through the yard as she finally got them silenced.

“Thanks Cal…” Axel said innocently to his nodding friend before turning his attention back to the directors. It took a lot for him to speak up to his bosses but here he went. Taking in a deep breath he began, “I know we all want to get back to the heavens but right now we need her help. 

“You’re right.” Alexander stated rather simply putting behind the pity arguing with Leon for the time being. Stepping forward towards the girl he spoke. “We can work around your schedule and our jobs can be done in public and here at the manor. We can pick you up and return you home by a couple options including: flying, teleportation and through our front door at magically connects to anywhere. You can get here by placing your hand on any door and wish to come to the manor. The door with vibrate softly and once it’s done you can open it and you will be here. The easiest for us is to have you physically here as we can take care of a lot in a small amount of time.”

“But! If you’re not comfortable we can come to you. Plus we get to work in the field and that would be super cool. I want to see more of the human world! Eat some of their food… oh and ride on a train and---“

Axel nearly continued his rant of what he wanted to do in the human world until Cal slapped her hand over his mouth. “That’s all depending on if Lee agrees to help us.” Everyone’s gaze instantly turned to her and the question on all their minds was finally asked by the girl “Will you help us do our work until we figure out how to get back into the heavens?”
