"So the question falls to you once more: Will it be Heaven, Or Hell?" The Throne stares at the Angel Lucinda. I move closer to get a better view.
"You have learned your lesson and are now four hundred lives the wiser, so we ask you again. Where do you want to spend eternity? If it is to be Heaven, allow me say that we will welcome you home and see that the transition is made easy." She cast her eyes onto Lucifer. All the Angels did.
"If Hell is your choice, I hazard to guess that Lucifer will accept you?" He didn't respond. Lucifer twisted his wings into a knot and awkwardly looked to the side. I look over to an Angel with golden like wings. He doesn't look at me. His hair is dark and he sits on the floor of the meadow waiting. He looks up towards where I'm standing and gives a small wink. His eyes are bright green. Cam. My own wings perk up and almost fly me off the ground.
"Lucinda? It falls to you to tip the scale." Lucinda looks up shocked. Every angel new it. It was an old prophecy, before time. 'In the end, it was going to come down to one powerful Angel choosing a side. When that happens, the scale will finally tip.'
"It falls to me?" The Throne simply nods.
"The last time you refused to choose." The Angel looks stunned.
"No that isn't true! I chose love! You asked me if I know my soul, and I do. I must stay true to who I am and place love highest of all."
I wake up dazed and confused. Okay the Angel definitely looks like my mother, and my father was right behind her. Cam was there too? I need to stop thinking about Angels in my sleep. I walk down the stairs and into the kitchen to get some water. My Mom is asleep on the sofa next to my dad. They must of fallen asleep during a movie. That's some cute shit right there. I turn the TV off and put a rug over them. I kiss their foreheads like they used to do to me.
"Sleep well, little Angels." I whisper.
