A Little Thing called Heaven

This is a little unusual; I don't know how I should introduce myself. You see my life is quiet hard to pin down especially when your not human. I and a few others in my class sing this song that is sweet and gentle dreaming about our wings and how to fly with out guidance.

Our Father, all of Heaven roars your name Sing louder, let this place erupt with praise

Can you hear it, the sound of Heaven touching Earth?

The sound of Heaven touching Earth

King Jesus you're the name we're lifting high

Your glory shaking up the earth and skies

Revival we want to see your kingdom here

We want to see your kingdom here

The kingdom in the sky is where I live, it floats on a pure white cloud that sits fairly still in the blue sky. The kingdom itself is pure and holy with white and grey marble on the floor and six pillars standing on each side of the room supporting and holding up the triangle shaped roof with a pool of water in a diamond shape by the lakes that is made by my famous relative Poseidon the lord of the sea. And near the pillars are two green bushes that bare Logan berries that are vibrant red and are juicy once they are ripe and ready to be eaten.

Poseidon is my uncle but I'm not as talented as him or any of my family, to be honest I hardly even knew my family all I have is a picture and no memories. But I am completely okay plus I am currently studying a protective system and wanting to become a mortal protector basically their guardian.

Today is my last chance at this exam I don't know what to expect because it always different from the last one you did; if you pass you go on your first mission and I can't wait to achieve my wings and the job I've always dreamt of since I was little. Finally my chance has come and I am one step closer to achieving my goal.

Have I given you a clue on what I am now?

My name is Seraphina I'm an archangel in training. My hair is blue as the sky and is often compared as the river and ocean grace that is long and thin and curls at the end like a little wave and a silver amour for melee practise. Skin an olive complexion with smooth pale cheeks, silver blue eyes and little pinkish red lips that I kept biting the bottom lip, more out of habit.

Anxiously awaiting my turn for the examination feeling the pressure as I am the last to take my exam unfortunately I'm not allowed to go out or walk around the building I have to stay put and wait like a good little angel.

As I waited and watched as each angel went in but I had not seen them walk back through the door they came for the exam. While waiting a little yellow glow came from my shoulders, this glow is my pal Malone he is my resourceful guide, he was given to me when I first arrived on heaven.

He had wriggled himself against the faintest part of my cheek, to support me and just telling me not to worry. Finally it was my turn I was summoned on the voice box "Seraphina proceed into the examination room"

It was Archangel Gabrielle voice, my mentor in training.

I am scared but I did as I was told by Gabrielle and went into the room nothing was in here it was dark and the door firmly closed behind me. It made me jump and a path was in front of me. I trusted in that path and walked along heading towards another open door and I went into that door.

I peaked round the corner to see if any one was inside and then I continued although not sure what is going on or where I'm going and the sound of my heart thudding in my chest bounding loudly in my head and ears making it difficult for me to hear anything.

In the corner in my eye I thought I saw something move in the darkness. I summoned my weapon from Malone he transformed into a sword and I grabbed it in mid air and armed myself ready for any unexpected attacks and one attack occurred as I fell on my back onto the ground a demon monster that is cloaked in darkness all I could see were two blazing fire where its eye were meant to be and I could feel the weight of this creature on me. Making it very difficult for me to move instead I kicked it in the centre of its body and it backed off and now we were both standing.

My eye caught a glimmer on the demon creature hand. It had a Norwegian black knife and he came towards me. I was not prepared on its speed or what style it would use against me. It had cut my hair only the long part of my hair that changed into a fringe. So now I knew it has the intent to kill me and to show its prey no mercy and then I waited, I closed my eyes and raised Malone my sword and the demon creature came running down towards me and once it was close I opened my eyes and did a horizontal slash cutting its face downwards and it perished and I then walked along again there was another door a riddle to be solved.

"Come now see us in the sky, where are voices sound loud, we do not live in the ground

We may tweet a happy tune, just flap your wings and send a tune"

I understood the riddle it was a bird they were on about and for the door to open I had to play a little music. Malone changed into a silver flute and I played a little tune to the door from one of his psalms his disciple made called songs of Solomon over the mountain and over the sea. The door slowly opened and Malone turned into a white glow with tiny wings and started talking to me

"Phew that was close wasn't it?"

"Tell me about it Malone; I thought that creature was going to kill me"

I then was greeted by a bright light as I entered the room it was so bright I had to shield my eyes from the grace of this beauty. I heard voices.

"Well done my student you have achieved your angels wings and your now officially Archangel Seraphina we entrust you with your first task and mission as an archangel"

The wings slowly growing out of me with little pain huge white soft feathered wings. I nodded my head and began to listen carefully and the ground that I stood on vanish before me, I was falling and then I spread my white wings that is quiet heavy to balance out and ended up gliding and the angel Gabrielle voice is in my mind echoing.

"We are sending you to earth, to protect the key to both heaven and hell and take care, my precious child"

Even though I'm gliding in the wind, the gale had gotten stronger with each wind cycle I am blown back by it force and I couldn't fly in this kind of wind instead I crashed with style. I managed to hit the ground but not gentle but rough and nasty right in front of a local park behind green bush that hid me very well. I saw the blue calm sky's past me by with white cot and candy clouds traveling across the sky.

I laid there still letting the pain rage on, while waiting for it to leave so I'd be able to get up and walk and start my hunt to find the key. It is about a race against time, I waited till it is night fall so no one could see me.

"Ouch, Malone... Are you here?" I was greeted with silence no little light flew in front or next to me that use to bring me comfort.

When I was finally able to get up and walk out of the local park, I heard birds singing above in the oak tree balancing its nest on one of the branches and concrete floor was mild as the gently cold wind past through my hair and the rides in the park were rusty and vandalized on like the swings the chairs you sit on are wrecked completely all that was left on the chair is it practically still around even with big chunks of foam off due to animal contacts of teeth.

The slide itself had really rude words on the slide the problem is when I'm here it's kind of strange the exam I had before hand has prepared me for this day on the planet earth. As I left the local park I saw a church in front me its called Saint Peters church.

I walked up to Saint Peters church and no one was in, the church it self is abandoned no one lived here. No man or woman because this church is in bad shape. The paint on the church walls is pealing off.

Dust and cobwebs are every where.

There are broken patterned windows of the frame now lay on the floor of the wooden alter. I then began to tidy up the house of god; it's really hard to believe that it has been mistreated in that way and how could this be like this it is not right, as I was tidying up the church and picking up the stone figures onto their pillars and in my time of tidying the church.

I've learned that the people don't understand it's different in heaven than here. Its more complicated and complex instead of being easy as pie when I sat my exams and trying to figure out the human mind and know all their earthly possessions like phones and electronic devices such as TV and radio and many more.

I went to sleep in the chamber that I tidied up that day. Still so many questions stayed in my mind and finally I was able to sleep but one question remained with me while sleeping what is the key?

Is it an object an item or something more, perhaps beyond comprehension or is this another test? Sleeping so tenderly and lost in my dreams only to be interrupted I was awoken I began to yawn and raised my hands to my face and I rubbed my eyes gently sweeping away any sigh of sleep, I then sat up on the bed waiting patiently for someone to speak and as soon as I heard Gabrielle's voice.

I was awake I then went all sharp and professional ready and waiting for the message to be said or interpreted "Proceed I am listening" He was talking to me about a dream that he had envisioned and held information about the school near here probably which is more than likely a mile walk and the key is hidden in there.

Where the key is, surely this can't be true. If so I have wasted my time in my mind thinking all this time searching for the key thinking it's an object but then it being a human child. I began to feel a little disappointed with me, how stupid I could have been but now I'm on the right course.

That night I had prayed for my companion to be with me and a way to shield and hide my wings from mortal children so they do not react or cause a fuse around me. It looks like I'm going to have to get to the school before the minions of the underworld get to the child before me.

But how I don't even know what the child even looks like or where the school is because I must have flown past two schools and millions of children while about to crash land, well slightly before crash landing in the local park that then lead me to the front of Saints Peters church.

I had hunch someone was close by in the same area as me so I peaked my head round the corner and saw an amazing blue dress I was eyeing at back in heaven the one I've always wanted nice gentle silk like different shades of blue unique and pretty.

It looked like a light blue fabric that shined like the ocean that is the same colour of my hair but a tad darker and a lighter blue that is see through like a scarf that I wore around my arms.

Once I put it on a note fell down from the dress and it's started floating in mid air. I looked at it curiously and I held it and began to open it and inside of the envelope is Malone. As he peaked out of the envelope and place himself on my shoulder and made my wings disappear so that they are invisible to mortal eyes so that they won't be able to see or know my secret or my true identity.

I couldn't believe it; I then began to read the note inside the envelope that is in there along with Malone. The letter said in ink writing that is eligible joint up.

Hello Seraphina

I heard your little pray last night

So I sent little Malone with the talent and gift of hiding your wings unfortunately once he comes off your wings, to change into anything you need, your wings will be visible to all mortal eyes who see you.

From Gabrielle

Early hours this morning I had left the church in a good well manner. While I set off looking into school buildings with Malone still hiding my angel wings for me which proved to be useful. I searched high and low but I didn't feel anything around these children apart from potential and intelligent, bright young generation and now off to the other school to find this key.

I left to go to the other school when I approached the school, the building was really tall round about ten foot tall from the ground that had white walls and creamed bricked and an automatic see through door and in the reception are blue chairs and sitting in them are two strange looking school wardens that didn't look or sense right to me.

They're probably the demons minion sent to collect the child because they were both in blue overall and snap caps and a pen inside the pocket and I walked through looking for the child passing each boy and girl sensing potential and greatness in each child but none really stood out.

Until I stopped searching and sat down when I saw a pair of a size six black shoes stood in my direction, I looked up and before me stood a young boy with ash blonde hair that is spiked up by some kind of gel that shined in the school lights and he dressed nicely and has hazel eyes like grey as marble table.

He wore the school uniform that is just a white blouse and black tie that isn't done at the top but hangs there loose around his neck and top button undone making the collar look untidy and black pants.

He lends out his hand and spoke kind words to me.

"Hi are you lost stranger?"

By just looking at him I could sense a strong determined and clever mind but there was more greatness more than I can describe this feeling was very powerful and strong and best of all his heart is pure and is kind.

I thought, that is what Gabrielle meant by the key and I've found the key.

"What is your name child?"

He was quiet slow to respond at first but by just looking at him. I could tell he felt like he shouldn't tell a stranger his name and he doesn't know who I am. This is completely understandable I am a stranger to him and I'm not part of his world. Or ever will be for I am not his or their kind slowly the boy made a sound and moved back and forth leaning against the wall.

"My name is Kallob, what is your name?"

"My name is Seraphina"

But before I could tell him what I am and what I'm going to do those school wardens came running up to us. I grabbed hold of Kallob by his wrist and told him to run. While running he said to me.

"Why are we running its just Steve and Brady the school warden?"

"They are not Steve or whatever his name is. not anymore the real them would have been killed and are replaced by monsters that are here to take your life and use your ultimate power of kindness to dwell further into there scheme and make a century of armies to come and kill all living things"

Kallob all of a sudden stopped and huffed he was out of breath his back slanted against the walls trying to catch his breath. His thin arms stretched and also hands on knees taking steady breaths but there is one problem by the time he caught his breath. They would have had us. So it didn't leave me with any choice I had to get Malone changed into a weapon revealing my angel wings.

In front of a mortal child the greatest taboo of all. The school wardens changed before Kallob eyes into dark machineries cloak with the night it self and blazing white fire where their eyes were meant to be and the scent of rotting human flesh that decayed and smelled of burning coal.

Still their foul scent is getting closer and closer.

I know exactly what I have to do but I must hast and Malone changed into the sword in front of Kallob and he saw what he believed was impossible white feathered wings that are big and saw me fighting for his life and he kept watching and decided to act he ran up with a wooden post in his right arm about to swing, as I slashed, dodge and weave past them and their attack unfortunately.

I didn't dodge one attack due to carelessness of the human boy. Soon after I killed one of the minions he had perished into dark smoke and all that is left is a pile of ash to be swept away

"Stop foolish boy, you don't stand a chance, you will die, if you intervene".

While the other was fast and precision was accurate than I thought I began to wonder a lot, how he dodge my split wind attack. As I was stabbed with its demon fingers stretch out that is in my arm and I went flying across the other room because of the minion attack that I failed to predict left me with the consequence of leaving the boy unprotected.

I got up and saw the demon lava change into something more powerful and beyond my experience it had changed from being small and weak to huge muscular arms and yellow glowing eyes and it was smiling revealing his white sharp pointy teeth.

Although the scent of rotting decay slowly had gotten to me, as he was breathing I couldn't help but notice blue veins popping out of his dark skin and realized that he has emerged to kill the boy so I immediately pushed through trying my very best forgetting about the pain I had and just in time and like a flash of light I Inclined stopping the fully adult size minion's claws from hitting the boy.

The boy looked up behind his covered face by his arms to see if the monster had killed or caused any damage to him, instead he saw me holding the creatures dominate arm to protect the boy, seeing me kneeling on the ground with my sword blocking his fatal attack to the boy.

The boy is the important key to both heaven and hell with Malone my trusty friend and sword. I'm now struggling substantially this strength is truly impressive and his nails through and through penetrating the ach and pain through out my body but it's only filled with hatred and anger. I could feel the dark energy source coming from the minion claws and travelling through out its body. But I have a little problem I could sense fear, was it the boy that I could sense that is afraid or was it my own fear?

I guess I will never know for sure besides I must win and get the key out of here as quick as I can. I must it's the only way to keep us both safe from the demon and his minions that are fallen humans that are now slaves to the underworld and seek approval and acceptance.

I finally moved this minions claw by lifting my sword up sending him flying and he did land on his feet, its reaction was too slow as I came running towards him with my sword above my head and I had slashed him in half and made him perish too and the boy watched as my sword disappeared and a little light flown from the sword that had vanished back onto the wings that also vanished before his eyes. He blinked unbelievably at what he was seeing.

He had a basic Idea on who and what I am now. I turned to face him and said

"Come Kallob we are going to Saint Peters church" Kallob didn't know wither to trust me or not but as I walked on leaving the entrance of the hall. He then ran to catch up to me. Once he did he started to look directly at me and had questioned me. "Just what in the world were those things you saved me from Seraphina?"

I looked at the boy thinking how can he be the key?, Because he is completely unaware of what is around him but then again humans are so coddled by god he does everything he can to make sure that evil does not co-exists in his world but it also failing because theirs lots of him to go round because of sin.

"They are minions, the one that you saw me turn to ash is a lava minion they process and change into their adult selves and they are sent from the demon himself, apart from the massive creature, he is what you call a mordicant they are adult size demon of the underworld and are more like dogs"

"So their minions from the devil, the way you fight is unique, not any style I have seen before, a flawless look and talent and the way you move and attack that is hard to see and I'm useless"

A sudden outburst emerged from out of me

"Don't ever say that again Kallob; understand that the name itself is power all who fears or speak his name will help him rise from the underworld. Where god has kept him since, the minions all desire to be told you've done a good job or single act of love and cherish but not one of them gets that approval or acceptance. Therefore they walk aimlessly wondering around isolated in their own world and path they have chosen walking further and further away from their true potential because nothing is too late. And Kallob as long as you try your very best and it may not be enough for others but to people like me we see the truth and the good intentions in your heart as well as your hidden talent but you must find that out all by yourself."

I said as I touched him on the shoulder to make sure that my word of wisdom has sunk into the young boys mind.

I took him to Saint Peters church but it wasn't properly tidy, it was clean but not yet had all the stuff that is needed for a human I thought happy thoughts instead of thinking down hearted and worried for I have grown attached to the humans for some reason I had the passion to protect them now I see why god loves his creation because they are wonderful beings and I can learn so much from them verbally in the way they speak or by the way they act with body language and facial expression and how they interact with one another its so educational and fascinating. I let him take my bed that he was able sleep after all that running I guess he must have been tired.

I wonder if he has family and are they worried. I then went to the alter to pray for Kallob the boy that is the key for protection over him and his family after I prayed I went to sleep on the steps of the altar.

When I was awakened but a growl and thudding I thought it was an earthquake and I went to go check. However it was no earthquake but the mordicant outside the church and I was about to fight in one of his tightly firm hand that is formed to a fist as big as a bolder brick. He didn't manage to say what he wanted to say because I just followed my instincts and examination process to not be deceived by those who intend to harm you and the civilians.

I got my sword out to try and cut off the Mordicant arm that was formed into a brick. The mordicant laughed at me all I did was tickle him no matter how hard I tried to make a clean cut on his arm it didn't seem to work, I began to wonder what am I dealing with here, stop think, think like a monster.

As I thought and put its quality all in one for his skin is surely hard as rock but still even so there is always weak spot. As I tried again this time with a running and a high up and focusing and channelling all my energy aiming for the bit above the elbow with precision. A clean cut completely off using the technique that is unusual to me but yet it felt like I knew it somehow.

The mordicant screamed with anger and agony that his hand was clean off from one swooshes of my sword. He held his shoulder to stop the blue blood from spluttering out and ran off back to the underworld.

I then rushed over to the hand and cut the full arm into pieces so I am able to tell which Mordicant which is which. I had smiled at the corner that is etched on the left side of my face but even so I must shelter this key from harm and also the republic. I went back inside and watch the boy silently sleeping in the room I gave to him I know that it's hardly suitable but that is all I can provide for him for the time being.

I heard a voice in my head and it's strange but my soul was in my conscience bit in my head. When the light faded a figure stood there in the distance as my eyes adjusted I saw Gabrielle standing in front of me.

He told me that the technique I pulled off was from my mother archangel Shekinah and that I embody her a lot in appearance and Gabrielle indicated to me to stand closer to him so I did and he placed one hand on my forehead and showed me that Kallob is an orphaned child and his parents where killed in the fire in attempt to save Kallob's sibling, horrified at the scene and disaster in detail it felt like I was there reliving a past memory.

I understand now and I decided from that day on that I will be his carer and protector until I have to return to the heavens. I felt his pain as if it was my own and in his heart but still his heart was pure and kind even though that memory is still clutching at his heart and I know there is not a waking day that he doesn't stop thinking about his family and how he could have been a better son and brother to them before their untimely death.

I awoke and I picked up a blanket that was around me and looked into the kitchen inside was dark shallow walls but still rather vibrant because of the pictures of still life like 3d shapes of fruit and still figurines on the brown mahogany shelves just above the fire place.

Kallob just sat there and waited for me to speak as I came over and sat on the opposite side so that I can see him and make sure he is listening to my every word and paying attention. I sighed and made him breakfast and I started to talk

"I know it's going to be difficult but you can guess you're no longer an ordinary child anymore as you might have suspected your world is going to change."

"Seraphina with all respects I have to go to school for my education"

"I know but I must insist you stay how else I am going to look out for you, if you're in school without being detected"

I placed the cereal in front of him cornflakes and nice fresh cold milk into a bowl with a silver spoon

"That's easy Seraphina; you can come to school with me"

All of a sudden aware of the anger within

"what, that is observe I cannot go to school with you Kallob, I'm an archangel I am designed to fight and protect my mission not travel to school and repeat high school again"

Unfortunately I don't have a choice in the matter at all, this boy wants to go to school what a bizarre mortal child he is. But I guess his education is important. I understood that I am unable to change Kallob's mind so went to my room and started to sulk in my room I had to repeat high school again not the full year but only partly of the school year until half term. But it's not fair at all.

I've now began to notice a change in me I didn't understand why I was saying no. Why was, I even sent here. Hmm all this does not add up I sighed in accepting that I am what I do now I don't understand at all. I went to sleep quietly trying to get of the human part that grew inside.

The very next day I was already awake waiting for Kallob to wake up and he was already dressed and ready for school. We take the long way round school just in case we had any unexpected encounters with the demons minions but I wouldn't be able to be always by Kallob side it will be too obvious to all who are sent to the key especially when they know who I am which is really bad for cooperate groups.

As I was now officially Kallobs baby sitter it would be a lot difficult than before I have no back up or any enquires of people that can help me now but still I often wondered why Gabrielle had given me this task. I let him do his lesson but still yet I managed to lose him time after time especially dinner time he sits with his mates and chill with them he asked them they believed in angels.

They said yes of course and a bunch of big tall lads who looked at Kallob strangely and his friends warned him about them discreetly "don't look now but it looks like Robert and his crows has found you." and Kallob said "Thank you Lucas" as Kallob slowly got up so did his friends, Lucas has ash blonde hair and blue eyes wearing a white top and jeans with trainers, pippin has ginger curly locks and green eyes with a black top and jeans with black pumps and George he has brown short hair with a rat tail at the back of his neck and a top that is grey and he wore blue jeans and grey trainers and eyes that are brown.

They began to get up not letting the group of boys know that they know that they are after Kallob, His friends also stood up and walked with Kallob out of the dinning room and they all began to run up the stairs.

As quick as they could and one of Kallob's friend George took Pippin one of his friend with him the opposite direction causing a diversion. While Lucas had took his best friend Kallob by the arm up the other flight of stairs for his safety. Robert couldn't find Kallob at all so he stopped searching for Kallob, Lucas looked from the top balcony looking down for his two crew members Pippin and George instead he saw Robert coming up this way

"Hurry" he indicated to Kallob and they ran down the set of stairs back into the dinning hall with no problem or anyone trying to hunt them and Lucas and Kallob bumped into Pippin and George who were like them out of breath and tired from running, In the corridor far away from any viewers and students in school the demon showed up only voice like to Robert.

He voice was not gentle at all but like a growl "Robert you have let the boy go through your fingers I have no longer purpose of you , you want something done, you got to do it yourself"

On the far right of the balcony I'm standing on a bridge and it feels like I'm waiting in the dark and I thought that the answer would be here by now, but here's nothing but the rain I see and there's no footsteps on the ground and I'm listening out but there's no sound. However just when I thought everything is peaceful, I could sense something was wrong because I could feel a strong aura.

I started to look round the school everything seemed ok and I went into the dinning hall with Malone still covering my wings in the presence of a mortal child until a dark smoke started to spread around the dinner hall and in place was a red broad figure with long black sharp finger nails and yellow glowing eyes and a set of white pointy teeth and two horns on the forehead of this creature that appeared to be human like quality.

He could sense the key, I could tell he could sense the presence though for his eyes were wide searching among these young boys but wasn't able to pick him out from the crowd yet. I ran into the dinner hall and yelled with Malone no longer on my wing but as my sword facing towards the demon that had rudely interrupted this nice quite establishment.

Kallob's friends are shocked and amazed that this girl in school who happens to be travelling with Kallob is an angel. They could see my white feathered wings and Lucas was filled with amazement for he thought that angels were a myth and before him stood a miracle. Pippin freaked out totally freaked out starting on Lucas shirt and saying "didn't I tell you, I told you they existed" and George was just silently he was speechless and just staring in wonder of this beautiful figure with his mouth open.

I didn't care, I have a job to do and that is to protect Kallob from harm and I raised my sword towards the Demon facing directly at his chest.

"Demon, hear me now, you cannot have what you seek"

"Ah Young Seraphina I have wondered when our path will cross, my haven't you grown, let me have the key"

"How do you know that you're not talking to her?"

He laughed at me and said "Seraphina the key is a human boy, now let me have him"

"No I'm here to protect the key from you Demon"

Outraged by my objection "you're not giving me a choice Seraphina"

He swung a mighty hand against me and with the other hand he grabbed the shaken boy. I got up and I was just too late as he yelled for my help. The demon vanished with Kallob. All was not lost as long as I get to where the demon has taken him, at the moment I feel like a bad career for I have failed time after time to ensure Kallob's safety. Its not that difficult to find out where he is it's not like I don't know where he's taken Kallob into the heart of evil itself, and the underworld.

Meanwhile an Archangel Raguel was watching contently over me even though I didn't know about it he then secretly informed Gabrielle and he sent my fellow friends to come and help me because they are all different ranking and can help me through this daunting task that has been assigned to me personally.

I was unaware of the help I'm going to get I made a reckless decision and had made a transportation to travel into the underworld as I went through the transportation I didn't feel so good it messed my insides up a bit and when I got their I saw a dark tunnel and the chill of the coldness that had stroke a chord within that single stroke, it sent loads of little shivers down my spine.

As I travelled further the scene changed there was heat and warmth of a light at the end and soon after I was hit with a nasty smell of damp that is over powering.

The walls were moist from the heat of the flames and the stones on the ground were slippery because of mosque.

As I travelled I found human skeletons in bits it was rare to see one all together in this place. The hell fire dogs were walking by I hid in between the dark walls and fell backwards down a passage way when I rolled and tumbled down and I had hit my head on something and landed with my head resting on something soft and bony I moved up immediately to look at what I resting on.

It was Kallob I grabbed his body that laid still on the ground and I held his body tightly in my embraced arms that had always been opened for him only and I stroked his fringe to one side of his head carefully like a child with little dolly and said while still aware that the danger is all around me and not to let my guard down in this place and maintain a distance that the way the things should be. His small fragile body tortured wreck and weak I could only sense a faint bit of life left in him.

"Kallob it's me Seraphina I've come to help you, please open your eyes"

I pleaded with a simple tear rolling down my pale face onto Kallob's face he then slowly open his eyes only partly and a little smile etch of that reckless body

"Sarah, phina is that you?"

Over whelmed with floods of tears that is now streaming down my pale face, hoping he would come around soon. Kallob reached a filth hand covered with dark coal compressed against my cheek, and I held his cold hand that was on my cheek and closed my eyes thankful that the boy did not die and said to Kallob in a sort of whisper

"Yes it's me I have come to get you out of here"

And I picked him up and once I got him standing I wrapped his arm over my neck and carried his mangled body and I spread my wings and fly up out of here. Something was wrong my wings they were not angel like anymore my feathers were replaced by a thin layer of skin and it was far from normal but dark and black feathered instead of the white purity one I was given and I began to think what is happening feeling fear for once of my appearance and I was beginning to think that was too easy.

Then my mind became troubled and started to doubt myself and think what has Satan got planned. Suddenly I had to act fast for I realized that the walls around the room were closing in on me.

"Hang on Kallob this is going to be a bit rough"

As I fly in and out and around things and someone shot an arrow in my right arm, a close call basically it almost hit Kallob head, but I don't understand why they are targeting Kallob is he not the key and don't they need him alive to open the door of the greatest evil to vial out and curse this earth.

So much wonder and questions but right now I need to focus on flying out of here and ensuring the boys protection and I continued to fly out and go back through the transportation it was getting smaller there is no way that me and Kallob can go back to the human world together.

So I made a decision and I put Kallob in the portal and it closed straight after leaving me to face with my fate against a creature that had no arm it was the mordicant he swore he would avenge his arm and kill me for it, but he was interrupted by more people that are clad in amour and there are five of them at my side making me number six.

My friend archangel Ariel he was beside me at all times he fights like lion and are friends with all creatures in the animal kingdom chain and has shown he loyalty to god before on many occasions he has red hair and blue eyes skin so pale and a metal lion head as his breast plate and a sword at his left side. He is our strength for he encourages us to carry on with his words that are powerful.

Uriel my other friend he is the fire of god he passion and determination he had blond short hair that is combed at the top and on his breast plate is the metal flame and his eyes are hazel grey and also pale skinned and is an archer range and ranked solider. He is also our strength he helps with the attack with Ariel.

Raziel he is main person who can help me and many others increase they limits like speed agility and strength to help us have victory and the upper hand that seems almost impossible, when nothing is impossible at all for Raziel. He has brown short hair and brown eyes and pale skin and on his breast plate he has a metal cup on it representing victory.

Sariel he is the angel of guidance and is one of the seven archangels in the heavens with his name meaning "God's command", he is responsible for the lot of angels that violate God's sacred ordinances. Sariel is considered the prince of presence and an angel of healing. He has the breast plate of a cross showing aid and four points that remind us of our virtues. Which are protect, loyal, humble and opened minded?

And finally my closet friend who sang with me and is the first to start her exam before is Shushienae the angel of purity. Shushienae is responsible for assisting us in achieving purity of body and mind by infusing us with her gentle, cleansing energy of love. She calls to the other angels at dawn to direct the flow to nourish people, plants and animals, keeping them vibrant and protected. Her breast plate has a picture of a metal plant and two swords at her side she is not strongest on the team but a vital aspect of hope for all of us, she has long dark purple hair that is often mistaken as black and she has velvet grey eyes.

My name is Seraphina but I embody the skills of Shekinah, the angel of unity and unconditional Love who always stays close to humankind, inspiring mortals to be just and fair, bringing balance and harmony to the human minds and spiritual being and I am in charged with redeeming mortal humans from evil and leading you back to God so that we may be cleansed in the eternal light of the holy spirit. My position is to defend and help my comrades as much as I can

"Now that your all here I am the mordicant of the awakened being of an archangel I'm sure you have heard of me, I am Douma the angel of silence or if you prefer the angel of the stillness of death."

"Legend tells us in the heaven gate library that under him as well as being the chief of demons in Hell, are all charged with the punishment of the souls of sinners. In folklore or old wives tales, Douma has been described many times with different aspect and most commonly one that is used as his description as a thousand-eyed angel of death, armed with a fiery rod or flaming sword." Raziel had said to us all quietly

The mordicant Douma had started the fight while yelling

"I kill you all and I will get you Seraphina for you and I have a score to settle for cutting off my arm"

We were all fighting and surrounding out objective and that was the mordicant he seems to clever from the last time I met him.

I with drew my sword Malone to my side and used him to block and attack the Douma that now stands before me, I don't know how but he had managed to block my attack and had hit my comrades and cut Ariel arm and left cuts on Raziel face and arms that are fairly deep and I relied on Shushienae to help them, I saw Douma going to strike Shushienae so I went to chop off his other hand and has been unsuccessful instead I got one of his fingers more blood spilled out of his body he had not seen me coming.

But I was a bit too late Ariel had stood in the way of Shushienae her eyes widened with shock Douma long sharp fingers has gone straight through Ariel as I turned I saw where the fingers where in his body.

There is one sharp demon finger in the left shoulder, through the chest and one through the stomach that went through the breastplate of the lion's head.

I had cut another of the mordicant finger and it removed the other two and Ariel fell to the ground and his eyes was closed and is losing blood rapidly where he laid is a pool of blood though I'm unsure weather its Douma blood or Ariel. I grew angry at this attack and I had lost myself completely to the rage that blazes within me now shown out

"I must have more, more speed, if I did I would have been able to spare Ariel's life" Raziel gave me that speed and I cut off Douma's other hand. The mordicant Douma thought while looking at its hand that now lays before him on the ground and thought impressive this one has focused all her energy in trying to kill him, he sighed and said out loud in a dark huskily voice

He was aiming for the stronger archangels and was going to leave the weakest of them all to feel ultimate devastation leaving that one to conceal her crying for her team. He was deluding himself in his imagination that made him feel bliss by the idea but then again this one was not going to cry.

"Ok, little angel you have my underserved attention"

He vanished from my sight I was looking around me and Shushienae yelled to me

"Look out"

I acted on instincts I looked above me and ran quite fast from Douma's rage

"Just because you cut off my arms doesn't mean you can beat me"

I deliberately dodge his attack and quickly came back on myself and we decapitate his whole body together with the help of Raziel who stood behind Douma and Sariel on the left side and Shushienae on his right side.

As well as at the front of him using my mother's technique again, as I called upon its assistance once more to finish the job I started. I ran back to check on Ariel he was dying slowly his white pale light is fading in colour and blood is still flowing out of him. Shushienae has tended to him but still he wounds not heal any faster. We will have to wait till time tells us.

I just hope time speeds up so that he can regain his strength. There is a loud sound grumbling and growling under the ground we stand, shaking and trembling ground making us all unbalance and fall, until it stopped and a red figure stood in front of us. It was Satan another family member.

That has fallen from the sky and became known as a villain of evil and master of death. Even though the boy is safe from the minions and Satan however I am not safe from Satan.

He appeared before me with the same intro of the dark poof of smoke that is vile and cruel normally I'm so cold now I feel heat and warmth on the outside and my heart closing up on me and my mind slowly not aware of things around me.

I touch my arm because I could feel pain in my arm and I began to watch the blood that trialled down my skin. It was not blood red and is turning from the nice pale like olive skin to black and red inscriptions that are whirling patterns and pulled out the arrow and threw it back at Satan and it perished as it touched his skin.

Though my blood is changing, but what is this strange thing tainting my skin, whatever it is its spreading fast across my body. I swallowed deeply and took a breath my throat felt so dry, what do I do?

My team member Shushienae and Raziel tried calling to me, I couldn't hear a thing they were saying. I know that they were saying things because I could see their mouth's moving. I turned away from them so that they can't see me hurting and for once I was feeling fear and anger for the first time taking over me and by these emotions that I'm feeling has made my appearance worse I know that because I looked at my hands it had gotten darker like black coal and red hot fire.

I stumble to the floor hoping and praying for help for some guidance before I become something I am not, when my mentor Gabrielle came into my mind and I could only just remember what he had said to me.

"My precious child remember your exams and last of remember your special talent that alone can save you now but it will not kill him."

A small light came to me that flew in front of me. I nodded my head and spread my wings once again but still it was black feathered my blue eyes were slowly turning red and flew around him observing my attacker and by the looks and the aura I feel he is a worthy opponent and beyond my station of skill.

"I see your trying to fight the true you inside of you my daughter" he had said with a taunting smile on that face that I could not look at before me.

He was playing me, using me to an extent to unleash myself and to let my anger all go making me no better than him. Shushienae said repeating the last word unsteadily "daughter??"

I yelled at him making the anger in me fuel up even more. Turning me even more like one of his ring demons that fly for I have now red swirls on my arm visible and on my face.

"No my parents died, you are not my father"

He laughed and had also a cruel chuckle under that wretched grin of his Shushienae tried shooting with her powers but he just raised one hand and protected his face from Shushienae attack although she is trying to help out but still nothing had happened. He smiled again and ugly looking being, its hard to believe he use to be an archangel and fallen for the bad side and chose as his weapons anger and fear. Which I don't understand instead of having compassion for humans, he desires the feeling of fear from them. Lost deep in my thoughts to try and understand but how can understand a monster?

"Wrong child I fell in love with your mother Demetria she was beautiful and a wonderful woman but only a mere mortal and she became an archangel one day and fashioned herself a new name. Under her name Shekinah and she went away with you secretly conceived then you died in the fire with your mother and your little brother made it safely out because she saved him first like you, you saved him again and you have walked in your mothers foot prints long enough"

Feeling these emotions of anger, disappointment, grief and pain combined into one making my darker side rise even more, changing me completely in size and appearance, even my eyes now glistening vibrant red of a garnet.

"No your lying, stop your lying!" as I shouted a white and black light shot out of me and it has Satan it hurt him I could see the smoke that came off him and a little stain mark. I know I could not possibly defeat him, I know that I have to summon a portal and get out of here otherwise I will die a merciless death so cruel that is unknown to man.

I only can imagine what kind of death that a waits me however whatever it is going to be, it will be like torture and painful. Trying to think, when I saw my friends looking at me shocked and worriedly concerned now that I have become a monster in front of them, I heard my sisters in the heavens voices singing the song of their wings I then sang along with them not afraid even Shushienae, Uriel, Sariel, Raziel and Ariel was singing.

"Our Father, all of Heaven roars your name Sing louder, let this place erupt with praise

Can you hear it, the sound of Heaven touching Earth?

The sound of Heaven touching Earth

Our saviour you're the name we're lifting high

Your glory shaking up the earth and skies

Revival we want to see your kingdom here

We want to see your kingdom here"

Satan didn't like me worshipping my heavenly father and all that is good in the eternal world outraged he swung a mighty hand and it looked like it missed as I was changing back pure instead of black.

Although now I looked half and half my body is reckless, I'm surprised I have lasted this long in the demon presence. The scent of carrion and rotting decaying flesh of man intoxicating my body and senses at the moment I didn't care what I looked like and I made a portal to get back to the human world with my team that followed afterwards and Ariel regained his strength that is enough for him to travel through and I too vanished like a light suffering for deep injuries from my encounter with the demon and master of the underworld.

I then started to forget my injuries and put the boy first as I picked up Kallob the boy before the minions found out he was out and back in the school grounds and took him to the St Peters church, I had an idea but my idea has a slight detailed problem is this how do I take a mortal child to the heavens because no mortal can make it to heaven unless they have died.

I was left with only one possible decision but it's not my duty to kill and must I?

Lost confused and hurt, I decided to take the risk, I don't understand or anything about this mortal world. But I must try I made a calling to the heaven to grant me permission to the heavens and white glow went around me with the boy I have in my arm and I smiled with gratitude.

I had whispered and placed my hands together praying for a miracle. In the clouds I saw my friends and also I looked down in my hands and nothing the boy is not there Gabrielle looked at me and clapped his hand at my presence.

Although Gabrielle looked at me at first he was going to attack me I am completely like a demon but he new my heart, spirit and mind are still angel like and he saw my red garnet eyes and could tell that my concerned searching eyes filled with panic and worry for the boy that I had with me. He smiled and reassured me.

"Do not worry child, the boy you seek is safe in the kingdom of god, tell me child" But before he could finish off his saying I slumped down to my knees taking steady breaths. He became worried about my well-being and he could see that I am hurting; he could feel my aura fading being replaced by the evil that wants shine out of my body tarring my spirit up.

Gabrielle wants to look after me and to assure me and Gabrielle came up to me rather quickly and held me close to him and gently like I'm a porcelain doll that is very fragile as he stroke my head gently letting his hands on my head and one around my waist. My form of darkness and light still mixed within me, not knowing what to do Gabrielle was just there beside me, unafraid and is rationally calm not a wrinkle or curve on his smooth face.

I moved in his arms as he gently brought me close to his embrace ready to lift me from the ground. When I asked him an unsteady question

"Gabrielle is it true that boy is my brother and the demon I faced my father and where is my mother Shekinah?" still taking deep breaths and feeling heat like I was set on fire that is burning me inside and out and with the agony pain that won't leave me alone.

The darkness is taking over my purity and righteousness my fellow friends that helped me became scared for my well-being and of me because they would have to turn against one of their own and my heavenly father would have to banish me, but not Gabrielle even though his eyes are beautiful and blue, he had with took the evil and bit by bit he had killed it and I could see my reflection half angel and half demon my eyes are strange for one is red and the other is grey I can feel the pain now pulsing through my neck.

The heat on my skin felt like a temperature now that keeps going on and on never leaving me alone like a fever.

In pain of Gabrielle intervention and a strange person maybe another of my friend holding onto my hand as I cried out to my heavenly father and a river of tears streamed down my face. I thought about giving up on myself lying here helpless with only the smallest bit of hope left within me.

"Father … please, please help me; concur what inside of me please" I didn't have the strength to keep myself awake due to how painful procedure and fighting the feeling, because I felt like I was fading away from life itself I am loosing all sense of awareness and of my senses.

I lay still awaiting to either be me again or to be something I am not a monster. I have awoken the next day in a strange room that was dark so I can't see at all. So unsure what to do and struggling to get up as I fell out of the bed I was in. I am hurting my body felt awful and awkward like it doesn't belong to me, it felt like I was awakened again and Gabrielle rushed over and hugged me and said

"Are you alright?"

"I don't know, I feel strange, I need a mirror"

Everything didn't feel right am I a monster or am I still me in this body, have I changed in anyway and what will happen to me. If I have become one of those demons below here, I know what I must do either face death as calmly as I did before or go to the underworld and serve there for entity.

Tears slowly flowing out of me, Gabrielle told me to calm down and not worry as much because our heavenly father will elevate all your fears and wipe all those tears away. Gabrielle then looked at me carefully and had got a mirror and was hesitant to hand over the mirror to me, I then began to look into the mirror my face was back to normal and nothing wrong, the only thing was my eyes no longer blue but a light grey.

I smiled and hugged Gabrielle and thanked my father for answering my prays for I was not confused or angry or even doubt on my mind, I am back to normal and I went around and hugged my archangel friends for their support and help down in the underworld it was needed for id would have been dead without their assistance and I would of probably become a demon and they would have to fight me, which will be bad and quiet upsetting, they are all in the garden and I thanked them all for their prays and they also praised me with kind and confident words.

That gave me a warm glow inside of me something for me to be happy about and Malone peaked out. My wings no longer needed to be shield for I am in the clouds where I belong and no doubt about it because I am home and I picked some lagans berries for Malone to eat as he's treat and reward. For today the red juicy berries from the last pillar bush that is really tasty.

For then on Gabrielle summoned me and as we walked, he had told me that the boy is safe in the kingdom of god and it was risky of me to have taken that chance but it had worked for Kallob is allowed to be in heaven. He is the long lost child of the heavens gate that have been longing and waiting for his arrival for quiet sometime now and for me, well you could say I'm back to normal for I am singing again until I am required again for god to use me.

Until then I will enjoy my job and my new status of being an archangel in the front line living my remaining life in the clouds with my friends.

I've also finally found out the answers to my questions, it was all true that Kallob is my younger brother and the down side that Satan is also my father but I was reassured that he was an angel before he became a demon. My mother Shekinah is here but on a higher level of expertise eventually I will meet her. I know one day I will just have to make her proud of me and then maybe we will work together.

But until then I will now continue to be my caring self and maintain a substation injury from doing my duty but I don't mind that scar that is now healed will be a reminder to me of my first mission and in the meantime until I'm assigned to another job that needs to be done, I will be spending time with my little brother Kallob and regain the time that we have in place of today to catch up from the one that has been taken away from us on that fatal day for now the battle is over for the key to both heaven and hell.
