Little Bit of Heaven

Hide

I was asleep for a couple of days, days that Jam stayed by my side, awake I assumed. I could only assume that as when I woke up, he was passed out. The type of passed out he only got when he overworked himself.

I wanted to reach out to him, to touch him, but I stopped. I remembered why I was sleeping for so long. Why he was so worried.

Quietly, I pulled away and left the bed. Swiftly, I changed into normal human clothes and grabbed some human money that was near by.

I don't know why he had it in the room, but I didn't care. I couldn't stay here. I couldn't stay near him. I loved the World, I loved the life that was there, that surrounded me... I couldn't see it disappear... I would never be able to watch it die and just sit back.

I had to get away from Jam. If this was the way to save the World, then I will do it... Even if it hurts.

I left as quickly as I could, flying to the surface of Hell and running far away. I didn't bother to look back. I just had to get away from any openings to Hell and Heaven. I wasn't going to be dragged anywhere.

Suddenly, I felt a presence on my sides, but they felt familiar. A good familiar. Looking at them, I saw my old friends, but their once beautiful wings were as dark as squid ink. They had Fallen while I was in Hell.

Their faces were hard and serious, yet they were sad. They were following me to help me, they were leaving behind their own Demons to be with me.

I closed my eyes for a moment, feeling them sting with tears. I then reopen them and focused on what was in front of me.

We needed to hide. We needed to hide from so many people and try to stop the end of the World. We could only hope for that... A hope I fear was going to be destroyed.
