Hannibal: A Heart That Bleeds Gold

A Fool Or A Snake

Bells

Chanting

The smell of incense filling the air.

Leopold stood in the large praying room. His hands were together as a rosary was wrapped around them. Leopold bowed his head to the paintings of God.

This place was a nightmare for any beast that came from hell

“ What a touching scene you did outside~~ your wings out and everything. Once showing you were one with God but now not anymore. If only you didn't allow temptation to fill your soul….maybe you would be with us still “ Leopolds voice echoed through the room and slowly he turns around watching as Hannibal walked into the church. “ Who knew you could handle a church so well~ have you been practicing? My dear fallen comrade”

“ Enough Leopold…. Or should I say Raguel. Heaven must be so bored if they sent their most sorry excuse of an angel to face me” Hannibal knew how to poke Raguel. He always knew Raguel had something with Archangel Michael. Everyone wanted to be like that man yet no one could

“ Sorry excuse? My duty as an archangel is to cast away those of the fallen…which you are~ God has sent me down to earth to make sure everything is in check… including you” Raguel gave a very small smile as his eyes lay upon Hannibal. Slowly Raguel form changed and his true form showed.

He large beautiful white wings that seem to glow softly. His hair was much longer and very white like the moon. His eyes was that of the colors of the Aurora borealis. On his forehead was a closed eye that eye was never to be open until judgment day it is said that all evils of the world lay in that eye.

“ Are you trying to seduce me with your beauty?” Hannibal didn't keep his eyes away from Raguel. This was an archangel after all and they were one hell of a thing to fight. Hannibal was thankful he wasn't facing Archangel Michael in his true form because that was the one angel he knew he stood no chance against “ you may be the angel to cast the fallen away but you're also the angel of vengeance~”

“ And don't you forget harmony either!” Raguel laughs and turns his back to Hannibal as he walked towards the painting of  the ‘last Supper’ “ tell me my friend~ what is it that you want so badly?

“ That's none of your business nor is it any of your concern “ Hannibal growled out softly. He was on high alert now. His large black wings popped out and large black horns appeared on his head. His eyes turned of that of a serpent like eyes. He watched the archangel but he couldn't help but look at the painting. Jesus sat in the middle in all his glory and hope in the world with all his friends around him. While everyone was filled with joy and happiness to be with their friend… there was one man… in the painting there was Judas. He didn't show any joy nor happiness. He was mankind's greatest flaw… this was a man of greed. This was a man about to backstab their savior….. as if he was another lamb to be sold at a market place for a few damn coins

“ You trust to easily~ “ Raguel hums and touched at the painting. His hand gently touching at Jesus face

“ You think you know me angel? You know nothing of me. I trust who I need to and then throw them away after “ Hannibal backs up towards the door “ maybe it's you who trust easily “

“ Oh but I know enough to know that there is always a snake in each little group of trusted people~ just like there was one with our dear savior “ Raguels hand gently moved towards where Judas was“ there is always someone wanting to take more from you…. Or earn something “ his nails dug into the painting of Judas face “ someone that wishes to have the world or even a part of it for what?  a mere 30 pieces of silver!?

“ Judas was a fool…. I don't have fools in my groups “ Hannibal glanced at Judas now scratched face. The anger radiating from Raguel was bad.

“ There are always fools in a group you poor fallen “ Raguel moved his hand away from the painting and felt tear drops sliding down his face “ God has all but turned his back to thee~ oh how horrible life will be with no Lord to save you” Raguel turns around slowly as all the candles in the church started to flicker “ oh how horrible things will be when fools are all around you~ fools are the very foundations of human kind starting with our beloved Eve who didn't know how to stay away from temptation~ because of her… all the female population has a punishment. I wonder what your punishment will be when the fool starts to turn into a snake like Judas and sell you out for 30 pieces of silver. I can't wait…. To see”
