Soul Savior (Book 1 of Destiny Trilogy)

♕ Six ~ Rouges ♕

Heaven woke up a little later than usual. They stayed pretty late the previous night to celebrate their last day of training with the Guardians. She stretched before standing up and releasing her wings to groom them when she bathes.

She arranged the things she'll need for her bath, double-checking the items she'll need to brush her wings. It was quite an adjustment to do all these things by herself, Azure used to help her around back at Mitica. It's a fun and exhilarating experience for her to do this independently.

Being on Earth is proving to be helpful. As independent as they were as rulers, they realized now that there have been a lot of times that they were dependent on trivial things. Being served is one of those. And now that they are alone to figure out all this by themselves, they want to make sure that they learn all the scopes of things before they come back to Mítica.

She finished bathing and cleaning her wings after 30 minutes. She stood up and faced the full-length mirror of her bathroom to examine herself. Her natural pink lips are wet from her bath. Her body was covered with her markings, some were protections from the Gods and Goddesses of Olympus, and the others were from her role as a queen which appeared after she succeeded in the trials per kingdom.

On her right upper arm is the symbol of water, on her left is the symbol of air, the protectors mark wraps around both her wrist down to her middle finger, behind her back straight up her spine is the protection markings and on her lower back neck is the symbol of ice. On her outer ankle, the symbol of fire on her left and earth on the right. All of those are a golden colour.

Her wings are pure white except for the golden swirls on the side, the mark of a queen.

Drying off, she went to her walk-in closet to choose what she wanted to wear for the day. She plans to go out and observe the people in a park somewhere. She chose a simple long-sleeved white button-down dress shirt that flows up to her mid-thigh. She paired it with plain white sneakers that they bought last week at the mall.

After 2 weeks of training with Uriel and Rebecca, they have decided that the leaders of Mítica are finally ready to be left alone to figure out the ways of people through experience.

She went out of her room after she finished getting ready, her hair already dried up after she used her powers to take out the excess water. She saw Acacia in the kitchen dressed in a sweater dress paired with knee-high boots.

"Are you going somewhere today?" she asked Acacia as she started to make her smoothie.

"I plan to go around town until I see a place I like. What about you?"

"Same. Wanna go together?" she asked, using the slang of humans, which she admits sounded a bit better even though foreign to her tongue.

"Sure. We should just eat lunch somewhere. I think I saw a restaurant last time that serves vegetarian meals."

"That's a good idea. I'll just finish drinking this then we can go." She said and Acacia nodded and went back to her room to get her bag that contains her wallet with the portable money, ID, some actual money; and her phone.

The two of them left afterwards. They did not bother bringing any vehicle as they find it hard to maneuver. If only they can use their powers. They walked together and talked about their new life on Earth as normal people.

"You know, even though I am not home, I find this place peaceful. I mean it's a lot different than our world where we're more advanced in terms of magic. I just realized that we've been closer as a family in the two weeks we stayed here compared to the centuries we've been in our world." Acacia said.
