The Fallen (On Hiatus)

Chapter 28

Arsaix was defeated and after I re-awakened I had closed the portal to the underworld. The remaining Angels came before me with Gabriel and Michael in the first line. My friends nowhere to be found. Only David who was stubbornly by my side and I was thankful for that.

"As you can clearly see, Sarah is alive. If you just give her time to recover, I am sure she–" "She may have survived her awakening but that doesn't change the fact she killed many people just because she opened the gate for the underworld releasing many monsters and demons. Even more, let's not forget that she is the one who let Arsaix escape from his prison. She needs to take responsibility." "But–"

This time I was the one to stop David from talking any further. "It's okay. They are right, I do need to pay for my crimes." I said placing a hand over his shoulder as I walked further ahead of him and kneeled to the ground afterwards. "After all... That was our deal from the start." Saying those words a while light surrounded both me and David and teleported us right in front of the Angel God.

In a matter of seconds I was kneeled in front a very large marble Angel, as he was sitting in an also very big marble throne. "Sarah. Not only you have awaken your powers but you also caused the death of many humans and freed Arsaix. The punishment is death." Hearing those words from his unmoving mouth and the multiple agreements of the angels, I lowered my head and nodded mumbling a small "Okay...". But to my surprise an angel got protectively in front of me. He had black wavy hair and gray eyes. My eyes widened as I glanced at the angel.

"My Lord. Sarah didn't killed anyone on purpose. Yes her powers awakened unintentionally Arsaix but let's not forget who destroyed him. As for the gate, she closed it once she regained her conscience. In addition, she, not only never killed a human before but she was killing demons and monsters instead in order to protect the humans. Please, do reconsider your decision my Lord."

"Pectus. Don't let your emotions get in the way of justice. She may be your niece but I am afraid you can't do anything about it. In order to save the three worlds we need to change the fate by killing them both." That man... My uncle? I have an uncle? He is... My mother's brother so..... Is this really the truth?

"Give her at least a chance! If she proves that she can control her powers and if she takes an oath in following your orders then please do spare her!" He kept on pleading the Angel God as David kept on staring at me from my right with worry in his eyes.

Silence followed as the Angel God was analysing the situation. "If she is truly willing to have an oath then–" "I refuse." I spoke in a loud and clear voice making everyone look at me with widened eyes. David was in panic. I know he wanted me to accept but my pride just wouldn't let me.

"I refuse to follow anyone's orders like a dog. I am nobody's puppet. If you want me dead just kill me already. At least I would die without regrets knowing that my whole life was spent protecting the people I love and care about." I looked at David and offered him a sad smile as I watched his pained expression and teary eyes.

"There's no denial. You truly are the daughter of Santophe and Elysian." Exclaimed the Angel God. I didn't said anything. I was rather waiting patiently for their next move as I was already prepared for the worse. "Take both of them to separate rooms and chain them up for now." My eyes widened. What is he truly planning?

"Thank you my Lord!" Said my so called uncle with a very happy and relieved look. "You won't regret this choice!" With that said, I was forced to walk somewhere with the two angels who grabbed both of my hands. I looked behind me to see that David was also being dragged somewhere and it pained me to see him struggle to escape towards me.

The angels had chained me from my hands to the wall opposite of the room's door. The room was completely white with absolutely nothing else beside myself and the chains. Looking around here and there with the purity and nothingness of the room it was starting already to make me crazy. If it wasn't for the door to burst open, I would definitely had gone insane. Seems like my demon nature doesn't like this shit at all. I looked at the person who entered to see that it was my uncle.
