So, everyone agreed with me that we head out to meet this Balthial Woman. I still enjoyed the Frowny face that Mastema had. It gave me an excuse to keep shooting a smug expression at the Angel and when she had her back turn, being the teenager I am, I made cruel symbols with my hand to make my acquaintances chuckle.
It worked. I loved every second of it.
"Gah! That's it! Nope nope—" she began to walk like a vampire up on a wall,
"What? Hey where are you going?" Said Lorcan.
"I'm not seeing Balthial, you guys wanna go there and get smitten? Be my wonderful guest!" She told us sarcastically,
"But you're not bringing me along like I'm some Filthy pet"
"That's not actually how they see you" Frowned Gabriel.
"Shut up, you go uh —You go uh, tell an Old man that he and his like 90 year old wife is having a child or something"
Everyone Including Jophiel and Gabriel, gave each other awkward looks.
"...What?" Said Raelle. Totally confused and If she was trying to do the math.
"Oh brother," sighed Joel.
"Yeah, go on! Skippy Skippy do-do!" The angel went on.
"I..I Don't think that's how you say it" Mumbled Delilah. I agreed weirdly enough.
About to open my mouth until She says:
"Well whatever!" Mastema's wings came back for a tad moment,
"What can you possibly want from me? What am I, some Demon with one Eye, ready to shake your hand and offer yee A Deal? Do I have to uh—Bow down to some God like Axolotl in the sky, now?" She begins to cackle.
"But..But" Pom was gonna say.
"Or what?!" The angel kept Taunting, "Am I a Princess from another dimension with a Magical wand?— Like from one from your Favorite shows or whatever, that of which probably got trashed on because the Season finale was horrible?! Laugh my ass off!"
Everyone once again awkwardly looked at each other as the angel Wheezed her heart off.
"Okay Okay, I'm done. Sorry not sorry" she sighed, then he eyes when demonic (like those with a bunch,) and her flames came back with a deep threatening voice,
"But don't you dare tell Balithal That we met"
Then she —Popped! Disappeared.
"...Well that was Inconvenient" blurts Lorcan. Aradia nudged him. Honestly, I was sort of disappointed, I wanted to see how interactions with Balithial and Her would have been. I know the entire thing with them Fighting over Belos was a big part of Their seething perceptions of Eachother, But what's really up with that? I don't assume it only had to do with interrealm stuff.
"..Gosh" I kind of groaned, "It's fine. I'm sure we'll find her another time"
"Hunter, you seem exhausted" helpfully pointed out Joel.
"Yep! Oh yeah," I somewhat yawn, "I am"
"Then we should hurry. I don't know how long we have left until that Pillar breaks." Informed Gabriel.
"Right right pillar" I Mumbled,
"Say, Is there more of a reason why Mindy doesn't want to see Balithal or??..."
"Ahh— wait—Mindy?" He asked. The others look at me.
"Yeah, I kind of Got tired of Using "Mastema".
Mindy is a prettier name in my opinion" I shrug. Honestly, though she did have a quite on the edge vicious personality, I actually thought the angel looked pretty anyway. But of course I didn't share that.
"Oookay" expressed Gabriel,
"No. They just hate each other and that's it. —
"Pfft, wow how nuanced" Remarked Lorcan. Again, Aradia Nudged him.
"That should only be it" The messenger angel says like he is getting a little anxious,
"When angels have rivalerives it's very very hard for them to forgive or make amends. It's just how it is. It's better for them to be separate then becoming..Be-Become..."
"Become fallen?" I say. Everyone gasped (like it was such a stretch) and went like,
"Woah woah Hold up!—"
"What?" I say. "It's true isn't it? Once you break faith, it's better for you to fight it out and not speak ever again unless it causes the two of you..To become Devils..Like The demoness?"
"...That was the problem with Khammael..She always tried to fix what was alway broken" sighed Joel sympathetically under her breath. I heard that. It was the empress from my Visions. It made me feel a bit more hestaint than before.
"That..Is correct.." Reluctantly claimed Gabriel.
"Woah Woah! Hunter!! Relax!" Delilah saids, totally unrelaxed.
"That's a big leap into something else entirely! Momi told me once that "The Angel realm hasn't had a fallen angel in centuries if not millennia!" She continued,
"It doesn't always have to be demons, because Like, see? Mastema is already a Dark Angel, the wings? And then there's the Angel of Death.." she sighed tentatively, "..Typhras's abuser..Azrael. He isn't a demon. He's just a dark Angel..But he has white wings" she left on that interesting note in my opinion.
Come to think of it, I realized we have not even discussed the concept of fallen angels up to the point until I brought it up.
Looking at Delilah, it seemed like her face showed that maybe she should have chosen her words carefully. Like, she knew about my Past with —The man who I'm sick of Naming because I'm pretty sure you all feel the same and know at this point—, and perhaps she felt a little awkward for using the term "abuser" but Honestly, she had every right to. I didn't feel offended one bit.
"Yeah..Yeah I know. I get that" I cleared my throat. "It's fine. We're all fine, so does anyone else have anything to interject before we continue?"
"...Can I have something to eat? I'm hungry, "asked Lorcan. Aradia nudged him one more time and that was it.
We left.
No Literally, we just left. I didn't even teleport. Joel and Gabriel just opened a portal and we just walked through it. As if it wasn't the end of the world. I'm pretty sure it's because we already face multiple ends of the world.
It almost felt nice to be in the Angel realm again. I remember the girls sharing their experiences the first time..Even the last. It made me think about the time when Delilah and her friends saw the conditions that Angel realm residents were in..Poorness.. Homelessness..and basically on the Edge of Destruction. It gave me a chill down my spine.
Sometimes I feel like The demon realm is lucky, have we had multiple Tyrants..Perhaps we would be in the same positions as the poor angels and souls are here.
"Why is it so beautiful then?" I whispered to myself. The Blue Grass, The gorgeous trees, and the warm sun. It didn't even smell like anything would be wrong either. Yet it's because they try and try slowly to make things better. Yet it still messed up..
"I heard you," Mumbled Delilah. I turned to her.
"..I know what you're thinking..I understand that feeling very much as well" she uttered and sniffed.
Once again, I get those damn memories.
I'm in another body and In another person entirely.
I hear myself tremble and breathe like I'm losing oxygen. Through the dark woods of the Boiling Isles, I jump over a giant log, but gasp. I stop as I see a giant Cliff there..
Then something takes my vision to red. I scream out in agony and began to sob,
"Stop Stop!" I felt my heart shatter. He sounded younger than me.
"Stop Stop!" The boy kept Going. "Leave me alone! Leave me alone!"
Then I hear the demoness Cackling very maliciously like a banshee through the forest,
"Oh my Spencer..You belong to me"
"Shut up! Shut up! No! I know Belos Has you as His Puppetmaster!" I (Spencer) continue to wail.
"You get out of my mind! Just Tell me what you want and just leave me alone! Please! Please!" I begged.
Then I felt a stab in my stomach..I looked down to my shirt..To see a Blade there, blood leaked slowly as I tried to breathe..
I look up, and see a Vague Phantom of a Lady in a long wide twisted grin. Her eyes blank, hideous, and horns growing across her face..
"...I want your Spirit and Flesh .." She sinisterly chuckles without even moving her teeth..
I look to The edge of the cliff. Bare with me. Bare with me..
"..." Spencer turns back to the phantom.
"You want my flesh and blood so bad?.." I back Up. But it was too late. The phantom lady screeched and shoved me brutally.
"AHHHHHH!" Is what heard from Spencer..As falls to his demise..
The flashes of The town of Bonesborough passing it off as Spencer taking his life, and a flash of a much older vision came to me. Caleb getting attacked by the flames and coughing. Holding a knife as he looks up to his brother,
"PHILIP! LISTEN TO ME!—" He cried.
Like a Corpse, His face cracks as he looks towards me.
Chuckling in a bastard male and Female sinister voice.
"You're end has come, my dear brother"
Philip takes out his blade and it already happened. He goes for the attack and laughs with the demoness voice as he stabs Caleb, nearly tearing him to shreds.
"GAHH!" I actually felt the pain in my stomach. I gasp out for air and try to calm myself down.
"Woah woah!" Everyone went.
"Hunter what happened?!" Delilah said.
"I—I Had another flashback!" I agonized.
"Ow! OW! But -But this was different. I actually Felt myself being Impaled and I Saw The D-Demonss kill someone!" I cry out for a moment.
"Hunter"
"Hunter it's alright"
Is what they said, but my mind felt like it was slipping back. I felt and saw myself in the Cursed Palace again. Where my Abuser could take advantage of me. My paranoid worsened as I turn behind me, to see that Sinister Wide grin again,
"He was Wonderful to you!...Wasn't he?" She snarled. My mind raced with the idea that Belos wasn't entirely under the influence of the unknown Demoness. Sure, they spoke and had many wicked things in common. But the more Belos was any Inch near her, the more his true colors began to show. Voices and voices whispering, "The Vow of Elburion"
"The Vow of Everyone"
"It's Destroyed"
I couldn't take it anymore. For some reason, something came upon me without thinking..
I grab waffles, she transforms, and I do the most Shocking thing..
I Brutally whack myself on my head..Making myself a concussion and blacking out.
