Collided Fate: Book 1

Chapter 13: Trapped Angel

I got up and placed my hand on my forehead.

"Dang it. I forgot about the headache. It's so annoying," I mumbled.

I looked out the window. The sun was rising. I got out of bed and changed into uniform.

I guess it would be smart to handle it today since no one will be there.

Before I left, my gun glowed faintly then it stopped almost immediately after. I rubbed my eyes.

Am I imaging things?

I decided to deal with it later then walked to the school. Along the way I sensed a familiar presence following me. I still remained cautious. I hopped over the school gates. I felt weak as soon as I touched the ground.

It's stronger now. Glad I decided to do this today, I sighed.

Aegis, Asurmaru, and Skylark were waiting at doors.

"See I told you guys he was coming today." Skylark said running to me.

"Thanks for waiting. Hope you haven't been waiting long." I forced myself up.

We navigated through the school and stopped at the sealed door.

"Aegis over here. Do you think can you break it?"

She walked up to the door and placed her hand in the center.

"Nope. I can only mange what you can do. So our skills in Sealing Arts isn't great. At least not enough for this since we don't have any sealing Arts of our own," Aegis sighed as she stepped back.

"How funny I am the only one who can break the seal of what is beyond this seal." I sighed.

"Only if Keandra were here. This seal would've be long gone by now," Asurmaru said as she kicked the door.

Aegis hit Asurmaru and subtly pointed at me. I looked down at my scarf.

"It's fine, Asurmaru is right. Keandra was much better at seals than I was."

I gave them a smile, but I could still see the look of concern on their face. I looked back at the door while we were thinking of ways to get through, but the sound of a slight humming distraceted me.

"Do you guys hear that sound," I asked out loud.

They stopped talking and shook their heads. The humming grew louder.

"Shout his name!" screamed a voice in my head, "Her Angel shall become yours. Call upon his power that dwell withing you if you intend to break this seal?"

I nodded in response without hesitation.

"Now... shout his name! Call upon him. Command him! Fight beside him!"

My gun began to glow brightly. I looked over at Aegis and Asurmaru but they didn't seem to notice the bizarre light. Skylark seemed to notice the light. He looked at me.

"Take aim to the mind and fire. Call him forth!" Screamed the voice.

My body moved on it's own and I got up, then stood in front of the door.

"What am I doing? Who is this voice? Who am I calling," I mumbled.

"You know his name, now call for him."

I nodded and pointed the gun at my head. Aegis tried to pull my arm away.

"What are you doing?!" You'll kill yourself!" Aegis yelled.

I resisted but it got harder when Asurmaru started pulling as well.

"Skylark a bit of help." begged Aegis.
