Awakened

Ch 13

***

The images faded and we appeared back outside the door. I was in complete and utter shock and Afriel looked as pale as snow. She stumbled backwards and I caught her in my arms. Her eyes fluttered closed and I could tell she was overwhelmed. I didn't know what to say or think. My hair fell from its messy bun and a tear dropped from my eyes. I completely forgot about Gabriel and spread my enormous black wings. "ITS YOU!" He screeched. I dropped Afriel and turned around just a lightning bolt erupted from Gabriels hand and hit me square in the face *

***

I was paralyzed, defying and going against an archangel equals death for not only me but Georgia as well. I was helpless, and all I could do was watch Georgia getting hit over and over again. Georgia was about to hit back but I called to her with my mind, 'DON'T, IT WILL ONLY MAKE IT WORSE' I was gobsmacked, How did I do that? I was never able to speak with my mind before. Georgia was just as shocked. She turned her head and looked at me before getting hit again with Gabriel's fury. When Gabriel stopped, I wasn't surprised to find Azrael flying in. He looked between me, Gabriel and Georgia. One thought popped into my mind. OH NO........ we are dead*

***

I fell on the floor with exhaustion and felt Gabriel's lightning pulsing through me. I closed my eyes and mentally grabbed hold of the energy. I could feel it obeying my commands. I stood up to find Azrael and Gabriel silently talking. I could manipulate Gabriels energy and use it against him. I take a step back and roar as his energy flies off me and straight towards the angels. Before I even see their reactions I grab Afriel and duck into the hallways.

***

WE ran down the corridors and ran into a room. Thank God it was empty. "Are you out of you MIND!" I whispered angrily and Georgia. "Going against an Archangel. Your here for a death wish aren't you." I asked more as a statement. Georgia just looked at me and started to look around the room for a way out. "Don't bother Georgia, they are Archangels, they know everything, they see everything. They know we are here right now" Plus I need to figure out what I saw was real. Was I a royal? But I didn't add that part in*

***

I nodded my head slowly and turned away. "Gabriel and Azrael would know... maybe you should ask them..." Afriel seemed in a pretty feisty mood so I didn't want to anger her more. "Where will you go?" She asked. I turned to her, "back with Tyler.. so I can live with him forever and you can continue and live out your destiny... goodbye Afrie-" I was stopped by the door burning to dust as Azrael stood in the hallway with a menacing glare in his eyes. *

***

I gasped in shock, oh no, Georgia. Before I could react, Azarel already put a binding spell on Georgia keeping her in place. In one quick movement Georgia was gone. "GEORGIA!" I screamed but it was useless. Gabriel turned his attention to me. "We are on the same team here Agatha" Said Gabriel. "What about Georgia?" I asked. "She's fine, but please Agatha, follow me" And he left the room. After one more glance around I followed him out and ran to catch up beside him. We walked down the corridor in silence. "Where exactly are we going?" I dared ask. "Your rightful home" Before I could ask him to explain he disappeared in sight*

***

I stumbled from the tiled floors to hard metal. I glanced around. High walls made out of solid metal with bars of iron, a chewed up yellow mattress, a hole in the ground and a tap with water. I ran to the bars and looked outside. A face in the dark distance with flashing eyes. "WHERE AM I!" I shouted. The eyes moved forward to reveal Azrael with a smirk on his face. I jolt back. "Once your little friend is far away from you and won't sense your energy... we will take care of you... for now..." He raised his palm and black smoke arose from his hand, tickling my nose and making my eyes droop, "goodnight..." *

***

"ummmm....... hello? anyone?" I sighed, I turned and as I did I bumped into someone. "Sorry I automatically said. I looked up. It was a boy and he was looking at me with amusement. He looked odd. I focused on one of his features and suddenly his face blurred and he became "TYLER?!" I shouted. "Shhhhhhh" Said Tyler with a grin on his face. I laughed softly. "What are you doing here? How did you get in?" I asked with curiosity mixed with fascination. "I have my ways" Is all he said

***

I awoke on the yellowing mattress and yelped as I jumped up, wiping myself off. There was no way I was sleeping on that thing. I ran to the bars and saw no one. Like the idiot I was I put all my magic into burning the bars which set off a piercing alarm that rang in my ears. I jumped back as guards erupted from all sides and stared me down. I stumbled back in the mattress and closed my eyes as I imagined Afriel. Her warm energy hugged me like a blanket and I new she was still nearby. I turned around and lay on the metal floor, falling asleep as the memories replayed in my head.

***

"But what are you really doing here?" I asked curiously. "I'm here to take you to you rightful home!" He said proudly with a smirk on his face. "Now you sound just like Gabriel!" I said teasingly while softly elbowing him. We both started laughing endlessly, not knowing if this will be the last time we laugh. Tyler came in front of me and did a playful low bow, "Follow me your majesty" He said in an extra low voice. I couldn't help but laughing. We were walking for ages, "Are you sure you know where to go?" I asked while laughing. Tyler was holding a map and staring at it with an aggravated face. "Of Course I do, we just need to turn left and....." I interrupted him. "THE MAP IS UPSIDE DOWN!" I laughed and he started laughing to, it felt good. Then Tyler abruptly stopped short and stared straight ahead with his mouth wide open gaping. I slowly followed his gaze and gaped widely too once I saw it. It was a MASSIVE castle with walls made of pure white and blackest marble. The windows were made of the purest glass with diamond and gold fences and a lot of guards and the biggest stable. Amazing. Tyler started walking towards the castle gates grabbing my arm along the way until the guards stopped us.
