Fallen Angels (1)

After being caught in the artificial rain, Valentina fell ill that night and with a fever. Her body was chilled and shaking, her head was heavy, and she was unable to eat a lot of food. While she was contemplating how to kill the system that gave her a weak body, her phone rang.

"Is this Miss Valentina Salazar?"

"This is she." Valentina responded with a slight cough.

"We got some information from Director Cranston than said that you had accepted a role for Director Sarah Lee. We've gotten the paperwork and are forwarding it to you as well. Please sign and email it back as soon as possible since filming begins tomorrow."

"Tomorrow?" Valentina asked. That was so quick!

"Yes. Please sign and email it back as soon as possible. Thank you."

Click.

The line cut off. Valentina shook her tired body as she checked her email for the appropriate documents.

Groggily reading through, she wished that she was famous enough or worked for a company that would assign her a proper manager to help her with these things.

Still, that was a long way off so for now she had no choice but to do it herself. She made herself some hot tea and started reading through the contract and documents sent.

She didn't see anything particularly wrong with it, so she signed and quickly sent it back.

After taking some medicine, Valentina quickly fell asleep. She hoped that she felt better in the morning.

Next day

Valentina got dressed simply and called a taxi to take her to the J-Studio where the music video of 'Bring me to life' was being shot.

After checking in and arriving on set, she met the manager for the video Sarah Lee.

Sarah Lee was a tall, slim woman with light brown hair pulled into a tight bun. She wore a black skirt suit and black pumps which caused here to exude an impressive, professional air.

When she saw Valentina, she quickly approached her and introduced herself.

"Hello Miss Salazar, I am Sarah Lee, this productions director." She held out a hand and shook Valentina's hand firmly.

"Hello Miss Lee, it's a pleasure to meet you. I'm actually not sure where I am supposed to go." Valentina replied.

"Come with me," Sarah Lee said, then she led Valentina into one of the meeting rooms. The room was full of people she hadn't met.

Sarah cleared her throat to get everyone's attention.

"Everyone, this is Miss Valentina Salazar. She will be playing Angel number 2."

"Miss Salazar, from left to right is Miss Yuri, and Shawn from the Fallen angels. Rio will be joining us very soon."

"Hello everyone, I'm Valentina. It's a pleasure to meet you." Valentina said calmly as she looked around.

Yuri was a shorter cute girl with long dark hair and curtain bangs which framed her face. With her large round eyes and cute smile, she was someone who would attract a lot of attention. She was dressed in a strawberry print skirt and cute white top that had lots for lace and ribbons. She briefly glanced Valentina before turning to smile at Shawn sitting next to her.

Shawn on the other hand was dressed as a typical punk rocker. He had a black leather vest on with lots of safety pins which showed off his toned body, black leather pants, and a bored scowl on his face. His hair was black with red tips and was draped artfully around his face giving him a bad boy persona. He quickly gave her a glance before looking away.

"Now that introductions are out of the way, let's all have a seat and talk about what we're actually going to be recording for the music video. Valentina and Yuri We know that your respective contracts are only for one song, however we have decided to film the music videos for both 'Kill Your Love' and 'Bring Me To Life'. We plan on making it a connected short film story as an entry to the Gr*mmy awards this year."

Valentina sat wide eyed at the news. Out of nowhere, a possibly Grammy nominated music video had fallen on her lap! The system was really great!

Sarah Lee continued, "Naturally, since the filming amount has doubled, we will be paying double as well, and the filming time might be extended from two days to around a week. If that's okay with the both of you we'll send the appropriate documents to your agencies and continue."

Valentina and Yuri both nodded with no complaints.

"Good, now the premise of 'Kill Your Love" is that a pair of angels and a pair of demons are friends. Angel 1 is cute and friendly while Angel 2 is beautiful and reserved. Demon 1 and Demon 2 both love Angel 1 and are attracted to her bright character and her innocence but (Angel 1) falls in love with Demon 1. Demon 2 is comforted by Angel 2 but is still hurt and leaves the group.

Since their love is forbidden, Angel 1 and Demon 1 have to sneak around and hide it even more carefully than they did their friendship. The angel's best friend (Angel 2) cautions her to investigate more about Demon 1, but she doesn't listen.

Angel 1 thinks that Angel 2 is prejudiced against demons, but Angel 2 just doesn't want her friend to be hurt. Eventually things escalate and Angel 2 finds out that the Demon 1 has been plotting and plan on using her friend to gain access to heaven.

Furious she confronts her friend's demon lover, and he confesses to never loving her friend and his plan to use her to gain demonic merits for himself. Angel 2 says she will go reveal the truth to Angel 1 but Demon 1 attacks her and gravely injures her. They battle and she kills him but as he dies, her friend rushes to his side and says she hates Angel 2 for killing her lover and that she'll never forgive her. Angel 1 decides to fall and become a demon so she can fulfil her lovers wishes.

Shocked, Angel 2 is broken hearted that her friend refuses to hear her side of the story. Before she leaves, Angel 2 finds Demon 2 and makes him promise to take care of her friend. He asks what happened and she tells him that Angel 1 is now a demon, and she will be leaving.

After securing his promise, she ends up going mad and wanders around slaughtering every demon she finds except for her best friend Angel 1."

As Sarah lee finished telling the premise of the first music video, Valentina was shocked at how detailed it was. She had though that there wouldn't be much acting, but this was a whole short film! She could see why they were entering it as a short film nomination.

As she looked through the script she had been given, Valentina felt more and more excited. This role was perfect! She had minimal lines and a lot of action scenes.

Although she was a bit worried about how her body would hold up, this was the best type of script for her.

"While you are looking through the script, let me tell you your roles. Shawn will be Demon 1. Yuri will be playing Angel 1. Since you have a cute innocent image, I think you're perfectly suited for the role. Valentina, you will be Angel 2. You're quite beautiful and Director Cranston told us that you're able to convey your emotions through your acting almost perfectly which is very important."
