Another mythology buff.
Michael was far from amused at the incredibly contrived scenario. Had the stakes not been so high, he would have walked out and returned home. Instead, his day off was again disrupted by the Atharim. Even when they weren't around they still managed to pervade his life, if only by proxy.
He should have left, but he had already let one man go today - perhaps to his death - he would not leave another two. The thought irked him. It would have been far more prudent to walk away. It seemed that Tony had influenced him more than he had thought.
That did not mean he was going to wait forever though. He had already been distracted long enough.
As the American man finished his lie, Michael seized the power. He held only a small amount, spinning a ward that split into two, snaking it's way around both the American's and the older man's head.
The curiosity on his face was genuine, if not for the reasons they might have thought if they looked in his direction. Now, to see who reacted.

"She saw a flaring halo around his head, radiant in gold and blue. It shouted of glory and power to come"
"No matter how fast light travels, it finds the darkness has always got there first, and is waiting for it."
