Awakened

Ch 14

***

I awoke to the bars of my jail cell creaking open. I shot up and saw a man with jet black hair and a sickly thin body staring at me. I could tell he was a guard immediately based on his clothing. "Follow me," he muttered and I did as he said as we walked out the cell, through a few hallways and into a iron wrought room with two chairs and a bench with a needle, knife and a glass full of swirling, thick blue liquid. "Azrael has ordered you die a most painful death, but Gabriel says you will start off with a bit of safe torture... the blue flames.. Now sit." He instructed and I shakily sat in the chair farthest from the door. He took the needle from the bench and went to plunge it into my skin, but I moved back and asked, "what is that!" "A needle to double your pain, now stay still!" The tip of the needle pierced into my arm and I yelped as my skin vibrated with waves of pain. He then reached for the knife and applied tiny cuts into my skin, letting my blood seep. Then he took the glass of the thick liquid and poured bit by bit into my cuts. Suddenly it felt as if my insides were on fire. He smirked and closed my cuts with a few muttering words. However it still felt as if my insides were on fire and my skin glowed a blinding blue. "I'm gonna lead you back to your cell, you will feel all of this for a whole week before it dies down and goes away," but before he could even stand up, I fainted from pain, whispering for freedom. *

"State your business......" The guard didn't get to finish. He looked at me with, with confusion and a flicker of recognition. Then He gasped and his face was now full of only recognition. "Your majesty!", he exclaimed. "OPEN THE GATES!" He called to the other guards and the gates slowly creaked open. The guard moved to the side and gave a nod. I bowed my head in response. Is that what I meant to do? But his expression remained the same so I guess? I walked in and gasped at all the wonders in the garden. Then I turned around to find the guard and Tyler fighting. I ran back. "He's with me" I said and the guard looked at me realising Tyler while he closed the gate behind us*

I was chucked back into the cell and grunted as I landed on the hard stone. My skin still glowed a bright blue and the fire bit and gnawed at me. I glanced at the lock on the gate and looked around to see no one around. I fiddled and picked at it but nothing worked. I screamed in annoyance and suddenly heard it go through the wall behind me easily. I examined it closely and found it was as thin as paper. I bashed at it and it cracked under my force until it shattered, revealing the depths of below like an open window. I saw the grounds of the castle, the sky the grass. I spread my black wings and flew into the open air.

***

The castle walls were beautiful, amazing. Even Tyler was gobsmacked. There was only a few people walking around. The cook, maids, cleaners and guards. We kept walking until I came across a room that looked oddly familiar. On the white door there was a black sign saying Agatha. "I guess this is your room" said Tyler. I nodded and opened the door. It was beautiful. It was a massive white room, with and a bed with white bed sheets. A white desk with all the accessories I need. A massive Black walk in wardrobe which was filled with all the types of heels, dresses, coats, sport gear, sunglasses and jewelry. Outside there was also a huge bookshelf with a black sofa. Of course there was a big ensuite. Finally there was a cupboard. It was surprisingly, not white not black. But bage. It had draws all locked up. On top was a key necklace. It was a reaction I couldn't process. I ran to the cupboard and grabbed the key necklace putting it on my neck. Whatever opened to this key was important to me. *

I laughed in enjoyment as my wings glided through the breeze. A piece of my heart reconnected whenever I was gliding through the sky. I didn't want to be locked up in a jail cell or even live in a house. I wanted to feel freedom, and whatever this place was... felt like home. I zoomed through the air as the breeze slapped me in the face. "OVER THERE!" A low voice shouted behind me. Down in the courtyard were two guards and Azrael glaring up at me. "I THOUGHT THE CELL WAS PROTECTED!" He shouted. Without thinking twice I spread my wings and soared over the fields. I heard their wings behind me but kept moving. Suddenly I flew upon an enormous castle and flew down towards it, but a black lightning bolt flew just pass my head, making me fall front shock as I banged onto the roof of the castle, hearing a feminine gasp inside the castle walls who I instantly recognized... *

***

I heard a loud thump on the roof and I gasped as I was admiring my room. I ran to the window and sat on the sill looking as far up on the roof as I can. I gasped. There on the roof was a pair of huge black wings. Georgia's black wings. I opened the window and screamed her name. "GEORGIA!" Georgia looked down and screamed my name. She said something else but I didn't hear. 2 other angels swooped down and everything went black. *

***

One of the guards wings scraped at my cheek. I screeched and bashed as the two took hold of me with Azrael nowhere in sight. They held my forearms and were about to fly me up, but I wasn't losing Afriel when I had just found her. I knew one of the guys in the stomach and he lets go coughing and spluttering. I manage to pull away from the other ones grip and nose dive into the window of the castle. I knock my head into a vase as it shatters and I start to feel dizzy. I stand up shakily but fall back down in pain, fainting. *

***

I'm in blackness, looking around for an escape but it's no use, it's too dark, i'm in blackness. I was giving up and suddenly a bright light swallows up the dark, I squinted in pain. As the light fades everything was still black except for a small area with a blinding white light in a shape of a person. I squinted, trying to figure out who that person is. I tried to move closer but I realized that I was growing tired. I couldn't move. "Wake up" It was a girls voice. "Wake up" She said again. Another blinding light surrounded me and I opened my eyes to the real world.*

***

I awoke to Clary's worried green eyes as she looked at every inch of me. As my eyes adjusted to the light I realized I was still lying in the castle next to the broken vase. Clary was in a beautiful white dressing gown, but most impressively ahe had faint golden wings that took up the entire room. "What are you?" I ask shakily, straining my head to move up .

***

My eyes opened but it was no use, everything was foggy and my head is spinning. I could only make out 2 figures looking at me. "Where am I? What happened?" I asked my voice all croaky and barely recognizable. Someone was responding but I couldn't work out what they were saying. I closed my eyes. My mind was spinning. Why can't I remember anything from the past hour. No matter how hard I try to remember it's just a blank space. Like my memories were removed. I opened my eyes and was surprised to find my vision cleared. Standing at the foot of my bed was a guard, aka Tyler, and Gabriel. I groaned and tried to sit up but I couldn't move. "What Happened to me?"*

***

"No need to worry about that now.." She exclaimed helping me up. "But Afriel needs you know... you need to take her and get her to her wardrobe... there is a room she needs to see..." she stared me in the eyes. "She will hopefully have a key to it but this room will show you're destiny together and your role to play. The foginnes in my mind cleared and I stretched my wings. She opened the window and we flew out and I realized tiny droplets of magma fell from her wings. I will take you there now but you must be quiet. I stared at her in awe. She was something more than just an angel...
