The Fallen

Chapter 17 ~Awakening Arc~

Once I had left, Alexander turned to face David with great hatred, "You!" he exclaimed now approaching David who was merely looking at him uninterested, "It's you fault! Everything's your fault!"

"If my memory does not deceive me, you were the one who actually hurt Sarah," responded David calmly and the other gritted furiously his teeth.

"I did everything to protect her! You in the other hand are nothing more than a creep!" yelled Alexander in an attempt to defend himself. His index finger pointing furiously at David.

"You broke your friendship with her, you broke the relationship with her and you stole the only memento she had from her biological parents. As a matter of fact, I was the one who did everything to protect her."

"Shut up!"

Alexander ran forward and created blue thunder to attack David. His hand reaching in front of him and his eyes filled with rage. David in the other hand, with one single motion of his hand, pushed Alexander away. The thunder barely doing any damage.

"You are not one to talk, when you can't even defend yourself properly. You truly are one of the lowest of the low...," voiced viciously David as he slowly approached Alexander who was laying on the ground and caught harshly his hair, raising his head to face him in the eyes.

"Heh... What about you then? You were not a demon to begin with... And I am the lowest of the low? Don't make me laugh...," spoke Alexander with venom in his voice and David's eyes narrowed.

"...I am a demon. And that won't change."

~ Flashback ~

"I see... So that cursed child is still alive after all..."

A deep and harmonious voice could be heard around the pure white and shining room. A statue of an angel sitting in a marble and glorious throne. It's presence, filling the whole room with gracefulness and authority.

"What should we do, my Lord?"

An angel, member of the great Angel Parish, was listening to his Lord's words and suggestions over a special case of an angel demon. He was just an angel who followed the instructions of the higher ups. The conversation he was forced to listen to, along with the other common angels, was held by the Angel God or also known as the Lord of Righteousness and by a soldier. The soldier, was a guardian angel that protected the humans and pushed off the demons until the warriors would take their place to fight them back.

"...We should wait for now," the Angel God's voice could be heard from every corner of the room and the soldier before him tensed up.

"But my Lord! Wouldn't that be dangerous for the humans? We need to protect them no matter the cost!" he argued and the God before him merely responded in a calm, but filled with authority, manner.

"Do as I said. The time of her death will slowly come," ordered sternly the Angel God making everyone present in the room speak their disagreement.

"That's nonsense!" protested a common angel, "We shouldn't do experiments with the humans and the world! We should get rid of her when she is still weak!"

"Don't forget who's child she is my Lord..." spoke another one calmly, this time a woman messenger angel, "She is Santophe's cursed child."

"And also my sister's," added a warrior angel, one of the higher ups and most importantly, the one who killed the fallen angel, "My Lord...," he spoke once more now kneeling down before his Lord, his head hanging low. "...With all due respect...you made me kill my own sister. Please spare her child," he pleaded, only for the Angel God to reject the angel's pleads and cries.
