Zarachiel, Lucifer and Sunset were in Heaven. Amenadiel was there as support should anything go wrong.

They were walking until they came across a field of grass where many of his angelic siblings were spending their free time.

They noticed two siblings in particular, two who had betrayed both Zarachiel and Lucifer eons ago. Both the siblings had cyan eyes but different hair colors. The sibling on the left had blonde locks like their mother whereas the sibling on the right had purple and pink hair.

"Well, well, well. Look who it is. The slutty angel Panty and food obsessed Stocking. What a surprise to see you're still in Heaven. I can't believe Dad would let you two stay here after all you two have done on Earth." Zarachiel stated with confusion, anger and a slight sense of hurt and betrayal. He'd despised the both of them ever since they had betrayed him and Samael during the rebellion. And also because one was obsessed with sex, like Lucifer, and the other obsessed with food.

"We deserve to be here, unlike you, Amenadiel and Lucifer, asshole." Panty growled angrily, trying to seem threatening to her older brother.

"You and Stocking betrayed me and Lucifer during his rebellion. All we wanted was Free Will. Yet you two get to be off the hook for being obsessed with sex and food." Zarachiel answered dangerously, his wings raised over his shoulder blades, ready to attack them.

Panty brought out her own wings. Due to not being archangels like Zarachiel and Lucifer, they had shorter and smaller wings. It made them weaker fliers.

"I'm surprised both Mom and Dad allowed you and Stocking to remain in Heaven." Zarachiel taunted, agitating the angel as she growled and clenched her fists.

"Brother, stop. We don't want to fight." Amenadiel pleaded. He didn't want his family falling apart over what had happened many millenia ago.

"Well if the little cretins can't handle the truth, perhaps we shouldn't even be here to begin with. It would've prevented more family problems." Lucifer argued, cracking his knuckles, ready for a fight.

"Oh it is so on!" Panty yelled. Both Lucifer and Panty started to throw attacks at each other, Lucifer dodging every hit Panty tried to land on him.

"You're worse than Uriel at fighting." Lucifer taunted, dodging another punch from his little sister.

"Brother, stop!" Amenadiel yelled, about to break up the celestial fight when Stocking flew over and landed in front of him to try and intercept him.

"I agree that Panty is a total bitch, but she's still my sister!" Stocking screamed, throwing herself at Amenadiel as the two began to join in on the fight.

Zarachiel sighed and facepalmed, shaking his head as he got up and went to intervene to stop the fight. His plan failed when Panty noticed him from the corner of her eye as she hit him across the cheek, sending him slightly backwards.

"Is that all you've got you little sex-crazed whore?" Zarachiel taunted, recovering immediately from the punch.

Sunset had seen the fight and felt that it had gone too far. Why did her two other aunts hate her dad and uncles Amenadiel and Lucifer? Sure, Lucifer caused a rebellion but all he ever wanted was Free Will. He'd tried going down the peaceful route but he'd lost the option after no one saw his side of things.

Sunset got up and walked to the courtyard to stop the fight. She didn't want her family split even further.

"Dad! Stop! Please! Daddy stop!" Sunset begged, slightly whimpering as tears had begun to trickle down her cheeks. Her wings drooping behind her back. She tried to pull her father off of her aunt when Panty accidentally struck her.

Zarachiel heard Panty's fist connect with a face and turned to the direction of the punch. What he saw broke his heart.

Sunset laid on the ground on her side. Her right cheek had turned red from the punch she had taken from her aunt.

Zarachiel was furious, protective father instincts suddenly strengthening him as he aimed for Panty.

He turned to Sunset and lowered his fist and sighed. He turned and ran over to Sunset as he cradled her in his arms.

"Sunset! My shimmering sun, wake up! Please! I'm sorry, I didn't mean for the fight to escalate so far. Please! Wake up!" Zarachiel begged to Sunset, wanting her to wake up. He knew he needed to apologise to her for getting her caught in the fight.

Sunset stirred, the bruise from her aunt's attack now gone, her celestial healing abilities having repaired the injured flesh.

The bacon-haired girl blinked her eyes and groaned.

Zarachiel let her leave the embrace he had her in, but to his surprise she leaned into his arms and closed her eyes, content to rest in her father's arms.

"Who's the girl? I heard her call you 'dad' and 'daddy' so what was that about?" Panty asked, confused at the girl calling her older brother those words.

"Panty, this is my daughter and both yours and Stocking's niece, Sunset Shimmer." Zarachiel introduced carefully, he didn't want Panty to hurt and attack his little girl again.

"WE'RE AUNTS!?" Both Panty and Stocking screeched at the same time. Their eyes wide in shock as their jaws dropped.

"Yes, Sunset is my daughter." Zarachiel stated, wrapping a wing protectively around Sunset's back.

"Hey, Sunset, right? I'm your auntie Panty. Catchy name and weird one huh?" Panty couldn't believe she had a niece! What was her life becoming now? She felt bad about hitting her niece across the face.

Panty could see that Sunset didn't seem to trust her. She couldn't blame her. First time meeting her aunt to be attacked and struck across the jaw.

"Hey, I'm sorry I hit you. I didn't intend to hurt you. I was just mad at your father for what he and Samael-"

"It's Lucifer now. Lu-ci-fer." Zarachiel stated, glaring at Panty coldly.

"As I was saying, I was just mad at your dad for what he and Lucifer did many millenia ago." Panty continued, she felt bad about holding such a grudge against her big brother for so long.

"I forgive you, auntie." Sunset whispered, feeling shy all of the sudden.

"You're such an adorable girl." Panty complimented, noticing the blonde streaks that came from her and Zarachiel's mother, The Goddess Of All Creation.

"T-Thanks." Sunset stuttered, getting up as Zarachiel gently preened her wings, removing any broken, bent or completely damaged feathers.

Once she had finished being preened, she felt much more relaxed as her wings furled into her back.

Stocking had come around after hearing the girl shout to Zarachiel and call him the words of which she thought he'd never get to hear.

"So, you're Sunset's dad? Since when did you become a dad?" Stocking questioned, she dusted herself off and went to introduce herself to her niece. She didn't want this first meeting with both herself and Panty to be why Sunset feared her own angelic family.

"About eighteen years ago, I found myself in a world called Equestria. One of it's princesses, Princess Celestia helped me out and gave my my own room. Around that time I fell head over heels for her and asked her out and she agreed. Soon enough we became a couple and a few years later we got married, making me the prince of Equestria. A few months later me and Celestia decided we wanted to have kids. I told her I wouldn't be able to as all angels were, or are sterile but we still tried."

Panty and Stocking gave their brother a sympathetic look. Before 'The Fall' as humanity had dubbed it, he and Lucifer had desired to find love and to eventually have young of their own. Finding out from their dad that they couldn't had broken their hearts.

"Eventually, my little shimmering sun here is born and I named her after the sunset which was around the time she was born. It was a fitting name. A few days later dad yanks me back here without allowing me to say goodbye to my daughter or my wife. I soon sensed an angelic presence similar to mine but one combined with solar magic."

Panty and Stocking nodded, they could tell where this was headed.

"I followed the presence and found myself in a human version of Equestria and tracked the signature to a school. I found the angelic sense and magic signature in a school gym, which is where I met Sunset. After chatting with her and getting to know her, as well as gazing at her and seeing a few resemblances to myself, I felt a connection to her." Zarachiel smiled softly as he wrapped a wing around Sunset's body, pulling her into his arms.

"After meeting Sunset's principal who reminded me of my wife, Princess Celestia, I saw slight resemblances from Principal Celestia on Sunset and figured out she was my daughter." Zarachiel continued in a soft and gentle voice. He ran his hand through Sunset's hair slowly, relaxing her.

"Wow. I can't believe dad took you from your wife and daughter. What a jackass." Panty said with sudden anger.

"After realizing I had missed out on my daughter's entire childhood and some of her life up to eighteen years old I went into a bad state of mind." Zarachiel recalled the hatred and anger he had at himself for missing out on Sunset's life.

"I lost my wings and my powers to create and heal life. I got them back after doing some deep self-searching and understanding myself. I call the idea Self-Actualization. An angel's experiences changes their views of life and of themselves. They do it to themselves subconsciously and undergo physical, mental and emotional change because of it. I and Amenadiel have been through it. So has Lucifer. Ask them. They'll tell you the same." Zarachiel added, smiling at his little girl with love. So much love.

"I never blamed you, dad. I blame grandpa for what he did and I know he does as well. So does grandma. You wouldn't have willingly left me and mom and decide to leave us for the rest of our long and immortal lives." Sunset squeezed her father's shoulder lovingly, nuzzling his arm.

"You're such a good dad, you know." Stocking said, she gave her brother and niece a soft smile.

"I forgot to introduce myself. I'm your auntie Stocking." Stocking hugged her niece and giggled at how adorable Sunset's smile was.

"You were right, brother. I lost my wings, my powers. I fell again and again. You know? And getting back up, well, that was the most empowering experience of my life." Amenadiel said, smiling at his little sisters as they too smiled at him.

A family fixed by their niece. They owed it to Sunset. She'd fixed their angelic family by merely talking to them all and telling them different sides of the story so that each angel could understand it not only from their own view but also from how everyone else saw it. Including Lucifer, Amenadiel, Zarachiel, Jophiel, Remiel and Uriel.

"I'm proud of you, Sunset." Zarachiel softly spoke, his smile unwavering as he grinned at his daughter.

"You're welcome. And I love you, dad. I love you, mom and my aunts and uncles that I've met so far." Sunset answered happily, hugging her father, uncles and aunts.

Their family would still need to be worked on, but they were all on the road to recovery. Mostly God, Goddess, Lucifer and Zarachiel.
