**Y/N (Eve)** woke up to the smell of breakfast and the sound of birds chirping outside her window. Life in the human world was peaceful, so different from the chaos of her past existence. She had loving parents, a warm home, and no battles to fight. Little did she know, this would be her last taste of peace.

**Heaven and Hell**
Far above, in the realms of Heaven and Hell, a new threat was looming. Although the two worlds had found a fragile peace in the years since **Y/N**'s death, a dark force had begun to stir. Its presence was subtle at first, but now it was wreaking havoc in both realms. Whole cities had been destroyed, angels and demons alike were disappearing, and no one knew the cause.
**Lucifer** and **Sera**, who had once stood as enemies, now found themselves in the same room discussing the mysterious force.
"I don’t like this," Lucifer grumbled, crossing his arms. "It’s like nothing we’ve ever seen before."
Sera frowned, her wings twitching. "Something powerful enough to attack both Heaven and Hell simultaneously is no small threat. We need to find out what it is, before it spreads to the human world."
Lucifer nodded, his usual arrogance replaced with genuine concern. "Agreed. But we can't send a full army without alarming everyone. This has to be handled quietly."
After the meeting, **Sera** turned to **Michael**, the Archangel. "Go down to the human world. Check if they’re affected by this... darkness. But do it in secret. We can’t let the humans panic."
Michael nodded and, without a word, descended to Earth.

**Y/N’s (Eve’s) POV**
It was an ordinary day for **Eve**, or so she thought. She asked her mother if she could go for a walk in the forest to clear her mind. Her dreams had been filled with strange visions lately—glimpses of her past life as **Y/N**, the Commander of the Exorcists. But she didn’t want to think about that. She had a new life now, a life she had grown to love.
As she wandered deeper into the forest, the air around her felt different. Then, from the shadows, a figure appeared. **Michael**, with his radiant wings, stood before her, looking utterly shocked.
"Y/N... you're alive," he whispered, his eyes wide with disbelief.
Eve blinked, taken aback. "I... I’ve been reincarnated," she explained, still confused about how it was even possible. "I don’t know why or how. I just... woke up like this. With a name, with parents. With a life."
Michael shook his head, struggling to comprehend. "But that’s impossible. Only beings higher than angels—gods, goddesses, guardians—can reincarnate. How could you have done this?"
"I don’t know," Eve admitted, her voice trembling. "I’ve read about it before... back when I was in Heaven. It shouldn’t be possible."
Michael stared at her for a moment before his expression softened. "I’ve missed you, Commander. The others... they miss you too."
Eve’s heart ached, but she couldn’t let herself be dragged back into that life. "Michael, why are you here?"
Michael’s face darkened as he explained the mysterious force ravaging both Heaven and Hell. "It’s spreading fast. And we don’t know what it is or how to stop it. I came to check if the human world had been affected."
Eve’s eyes widened in shock. "I haven’t seen anything strange here. But... if something happens, I’ll let you know. Just—" She paused, her voice breaking. "I don’t want to lose this life, Michael. It’s the only life I’ve ever really wanted."
Michael’s expression softened. "I understand. But if you feel anything strange, anything at all, you need to tell me."
With that, Michael disappeared, leaving Eve alone in the forest. She felt a strange chill in the air, but shook it off. She hurried back home, feeling unsettled.

**Back Home**
When Eve arrived home, something felt off. The house was eerily quiet. "Mom?" she called out, her voice trembling as she searched each room. "Mom, where are you?"
There was no answer.
Her heart pounded in her chest as she ran from room to room, her fear growing with every second. Finally, she burst into tears, collapsing to her knees. "Why? Where is my mom? Please, God, this life is the only thing I’ve ever wanted. Why are you taking it away from me?"
Her cries echoed through the empty house. Suddenly, a cold wind blew through the garden, sending chills down her spine. She stood up, wiping her tears, and followed the wind, which seemed to be pulling her toward the garden.
"Who’s there?" she whispered, feeling a strange presence. Then she heard it—soft, ghostly whispers.
The wind swirled around her, and before her eyes, the form of her mother’s spirit appeared. Eve gasped, her hands trembling. "Mom?"
The spirit nodded, her voice a soft echo. "I’m sorry, my dear. I didn’t want to leave you like this."
Tears streamed down Eve’s face. "What happened? Where are you? Why did this happen?"
Her mother’s spirit floated closer, her voice filled with sorrow. "The darkness... it came for me. It took my body and turned it to ashes. I couldn’t fight it."
Eve’s heart shattered. "No... no, this can’t be happening. Why is this happening now? Why you?"
Her mother’s spirit faded slightly, her form growing weaker. "I don’t have much time left, my love. But know this—the darkness is growing stronger. You must find out what it is. Only you can stop it."
Eve shook her head, terrified. "Wait...you knew?" Her mother nodded "yes I already knew that you are special my love. Since the day I gave birth to you.. I already knew.. And I know you are the only one can stop this.. You need to stop this before it spread and hurt other people.. I trust u my love." Eve shook her head again and felt more terrified.
"But I’m not that person anymore. I’m not... I’m not the Commander. I’m just a girl. I just want this life."
Her mother’s spirit smiled sadly. "Sometimes we don’t get to choose. You are destined for more, my love. You always were."
With those final words, her mother’s spirit disappeared into the wind, leaving Eve alone once again.

**Eve’s POV**
I dropped to the ground, my heart breaking. I didn’t want this. I didn’t want any of this. But now, it seemed I had no choice.
Something was coming. Something dark, and I had no idea how to stop it.
All I wanted was a normal life. But it seemed fate had other plans.
