I stared deeply into the perfect white doors in front of me tears welling in my eyes blurring my vision I knew what would happen to me once I stepped through those doors,

A cold firm hand gripped my shoulder tightly shoving me through the two doors and into the head priest's office the force of the push threw my body to the ground, I shivered at the weight of a cold stare boring into the back of my head.

I didn't dare look up to meet the stare instead I kept my gaze low "get up!" the nun behind me spat grabbing by the back of my dress and lifting me up, I yelped as the low collar pressed painfully into my white wings.

The priest stared at me from his desk the nun that dragged me here walked forward dropping multiple books and a large binder onto his desk, the old man raised a brow scanning over the book titles his eyes furrowing as he read the titles.

My heart dropped as he picked up my new white binder opened it and flipped through the pages shoved messily inside, he finally shut the binder shoving it to the side his cold blue eyes meeting mine "please escort her out of my church," he demanded cruelly his eyes narrowed as he looked at me.

I didn't have time to cry or plea with the man as I had already been in the nun's firm grip being shoved out into the clean white hallways, quickly paced footsteps caught up with me in the nun the old lady digging her pristine nails into my shoulder.

"wait! stop!" a young girl squeaked I turned to look at the younger angle her little white wings barely larger than a chicken "please! don't throw her out" she begged "you don't have a say in this" the older lady snapped shoving her away.

"Rue, please just go back to your room" I plead with her, tears welling in Rue's beautiful green eyes "I won't let them take you away!" she argued tears rolling down her caramel cheeks  "leave now girl! Or I will punish you later" the woman growled.

Rue looked at me fearfully her messy curls hanging in front of the girl's face "Rue please, just go" I ordered shamefully scaredly looking away from her to the two white doors that led out of the church.

Rue whimpered racing back down the hallway and turning the corner leaving just me and the nun and my impending doom "leave and never come back!" the old woman shouted shoving me towards the doors.

I stumbled slightly looking back at her and noticing Rue peeking out from behind the entrance of the long corridor, I gave a small nod exiting the church for good.

The night was cold a freezing gush of wind blowing harshly in my face and drying it of any tears, my teeth chattered as I walked tiredly in the cold damp forest "damn" I cursed aloud wrapping my white wings around my body.

I stiffened when I saw the state of my wings the tips of my feathers turning into a raven black erasing any white that was once there, I reached out to touch the feathers running my hands over them.

I let out a sigh continuing onward trying to avoid tripping on any fallen logs or odd stumps that would pop out of nowhere as I hiked into the lush forest, I was terrified of what would happen to me angles outside of their church are basically sitting ducks, especially one's whose wings have not completely turned black.

I've heard tales of angles who were kicked out of the church- about how all of them were mauled by ghouls our natural enemies and predators, course I've never met a ghoul or have ever spoken to one but it was worth not risking going outside church boundries.

But here I am.

My eyes wouldn't stop scanning the trees, I was antsy, it was like I was about to be attacked like I would be a new tale for the church to tell I mean I could see it now "rouge guardian kicked out of the church, and mauled by vicious ghouls".

Naturally, I scanned the tree line again pausing when a dark silhouette caught my eye, my heart flew into my stomach as my breaths quickened all I could see of the figure was its mask and its devilish yellow eyes pupils blown into slits.

I stepped backward my miscolored wings tensing behind me ready to fly away, I gasped as I heard the creature let out a low growl watching as it crept closer, then the oddest thing happened.

The creature I was so scared of getting caught on an uprooted tree root tumbling to the ground with multi curses "fuck!" it shouted as it hit the dirt with a thud "shit, fuck, I'm stuck!" it groaned trying not to laugh as I watched whatever it was struggling.

This would be a good time to fly off- or, I could ask what it was and tell it to leave me alone.

"That's what you deserve!" I shouted stomping up to the humanoid on the ground and staring down at it angrily "what do you want? why were you stalking me? what are you?!" I interrogated placing my hands on my hips.

"you sure are brave for someone who almost pissed their pants cause of how scared they were a few minutes ago," the creature said snarkily "you sure are snide for someone who got themselves stuck on a tree root" I scoffed earning a snicker out of the thing on the ground.

"Listen I'll answer your questions if you help untangle me" it sighed waving its hand around "fine" I squatted to where his foot was helping him push it through the hole of the root setting him free.

Whilst rescuing him I noticed a long tail with a point at the end of it, I knew exactly what he was "your a ghoul aren't you" I inquired slowly standing back up as I locked eyes with the ghoul who only nodded.

"Don't run off I won't hurt you, not that I was planning to anyway" he shrugged dusting his flowly black sleeves off "you weren't going to hurt me?" I said softly tilting my head slightly "no I was going to scare you off, you're on church property and well we don't know you" he informed now adjusting his silver demon-like mask that hid everything but his mouth and eyes.

"I'm on church grounds!?" I yelled, "does this mean my wings are still white!?" I exclaimed whipping around to look at my wings which were in fact not white but instead seemed to have all of their colors sucked from them blending in with the black sky above us.

"Were you just kicked out of a church?" the ghoul asked stepping closer to see my wings for himself "yes, I left 3 hours ago, they kicked me out for writing and playing 'devilish music' and 'supporting satan'" I grumbled angrily crossing my arms.

"well do you?" he asked "what?" "well do you support satan?" he said repeating his question "I guess so, I've never had any sort of connection with god- despite being a guardian" I mumbled not so sure if I should be sharing about my religious status with a literal ghoul.

"I think you should come with me" the ghoul spoke looking at me with those bright yellow eyes that were almost unearthly "I don't even know your name" I replied my voice now softer than before "you can call me Swiss" he Informed his fangs showing as he smiled.

"Y/n pleasure to meet you" "pleasure is all mine," Swiss said taking my hand in his before kissing the top of it leading to pink dusting my cheeks "now come on, I think you'll like where I'll be taking you" the ghoul explained with a smile his hand tightening around mine as he began to walk further down the small dirt trail leading into the unknown.
