《Let go of the mortal world?!》Nesta yelled when the angel told her about the meeting with Hades.
《He is right.》Azrael sat on the grass and started playing with a pink flower.
《No, he's not.》The queen stopped and looked at him: 《there has to be a way to save Selmor.》
Azrael felt that again. 𝐸𝑚𝑝𝑎𝑡ℎ𝑦.
All of a sudden, he was too, a dead queen who was desperate to save her reign.
Nesta sat next to him and rested her head on her knees.
《I'm sorry, Azrael. I shouldn't complain with you. You took me here, but it's my fault I died.》
He didn't answer, he closed his eyes and laid down on the soft grass.
Humans' feelings were a lot stronger than Angels', it was hard for him to process the emotions the queen caused.
𝐸𝑚𝑝𝑎𝑡ℎ𝑦: He knew her feelings, even if hers were human and he had never had a reign.
𝐴𝑛𝑔𝑒𝑟: He was mad at those who killed her. He was mad because of the whole war-situation.
𝑆𝑎𝑑𝑛𝑒𝑠𝑠: He felt sad if he thought about her reign about to be destroyed.
𝐷𝑒𝑣𝑜𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛: He would have done anything to help the young queen.
𝑇𝑟𝑢𝑠𝑡: She was a good person. Azrael trusted her with all his soul.
𝐻𝑎𝑝𝑝𝑖𝑛𝑒𝑠𝑠: He was happier than ever. He felt a human happiness, not an angel one.
《I want to help you.》 He sighed, stretching his skinny arms into the air.
《I wish there was a way.》Nesta pat the boy's head, making him freeze for a second: 《Thank you for being my friend, angel》
《Friend.》He repeated. 𝐹𝑟𝑖𝑒𝑛𝑑 was a human thing.
They sat without speaking for a while. Azrael could hear the queen's breath slowing down, as she released her rage.
《Nesta, do humans constantly feel like this?》He asked.
《Like what?》
《Confused. Full of emotions.》
《They do.》She started playing with his hair: 《Angles don't?》
Azrael shook is head: 《No, but I do.》
She looked down at him, he couldn't read her expression, but she looked prettier than the Sun shining behind her.
《You have a beautiful energy, Azrael, and so does this place.》 She said smiling: 《It's a lot different from the one I used to experience in my castle.》
《I... thank you.》He smiled, looking at the clouds above their heads.
As the Sun disappeared behind Hades' obsidian castle, Azrael's feelings grew stronger.
《I'm going to sleep.》 Nesta stood up: 《Good night, Azrael. Thank you for listening.》
《Good night...》He murmured, turning his head to meet the queen's eyes.
His head felt too heavy to stand up, the angel stayed awake, counting the stars, hoping for an idea to come to his mind.
𝑊ℎ𝑎𝑡 𝑤𝑜𝑢𝑙𝑑 𝐼 𝑑𝑜 𝑖𝑓 𝐼 𝑤𝑎𝑠 ℎ𝑒𝑟? he asked himself.
He focused as hard as he could, his thoughts running faster than a train.
His mind flew away, far from the tiny floating house, far from Nesta, far from the Dead world.
He imagined himself in the young queen's body, his hands shaking as a knife cut his chest open.
His vision going blurry as the blood left his veins.
He imagined his kingdom in ruins, people killing each other and fires being set all over the once quiet and lovely towns. Just because he couldn't marry a stupid prince.
He would have never understood mortals.
When he opened his eyes again, he felt weird.
He stood up and looked down at his body.
《What the...》
His pale skin was now covered in freckles, his black dress was tight on his now chubby legs.
He had never managed to shape-shift before.
《FUCK I DID IT!!》he whispered to himself.
He wiggled his new body to get comfortable.
His hair felt so soft to the touch, his skin was flawless and his eyes were bright as stars.
He covered his mouth to silence a scream.
𝐼 𝑡ℎ𝑖𝑛𝑘 𝐼 𝑘𝑛𝑜𝑤 ℎ𝑜𝑤 𝑡𝑜 ℎ𝑒𝑙𝑝 𝑚𝑦 𝑓𝑟𝑖𝑒𝑛𝑑. He thought, and laid back down on the cold grass. 𝐵𝑢𝑡 𝐼'𝑙𝑙 𝑙𝑒𝑡 ℎ𝑒𝑟 𝑟𝑒𝑠𝑡 𝑛𝑜𝑤, 𝑠ℎ𝑒 𝑑𝑒𝑠𝑒𝑟𝑣𝑒𝑠 𝑎 𝑓𝑒𝑤 ℎ𝑜𝑢𝑟𝑠 𝑜𝑓 𝑝𝑒𝑎𝑐𝑒.
