Angels vs Demons

Chapter 9 - It's Close...

~Christopher's POV~

After i saw Rachel and Moises leave to go do some stuff i went and tried to play with some friends

"Hey! Christopher! Why does it looks like you're not so into this?" A random friend asked while we were running

"... Maybe i'll sit this one out... I'm not in the mood today for some reason..." I said

"Okay... Well... See you tomorrow i guess, bye!" She replied as he went and ran away

"Maybe i'll check those two for the time being... I think it's a bad idea leaving Moises and Rachel alone..." I thought to myself as i ran towards the room of Moises

I reached Moises' room in about 5 minutes and as i tried to open the door... I heard crying... It kinda sounds like Moises...

"Wh-why's he crying?!" I said to myself as i leaned closer and tried to listen to what was happening inside

I heard Rachel say "you do regret what you just did huh?"

"Regret?" I asked myself

"Yes!!! ..... Even though i know i shouldn't cry about something stupid like this!!!" I heard Moises' voice

(The dots are the ones that Christoph can't hear)

"There, there, just let it all out" i heard Rachel say to Moises and as she said that Moises' crying began to sound louder

"What are they talking about? What's going to happen tomorrow?" I thought

"I'll probably be doomed when they find out i'm eavesdropping on them though..." I though to myself

~Moises POV~

"You want to go back and play with Christopher?" Rachel said

"I-i can't..." I said

"Why?" Rachel asked

"Like you said... My weakness is not being able to express my emotions..." I said while calming down

"Why don't you try to be more "emotional"?" Rachel said

"Because... I think emotions are stupid... They mostly interrupt in many things... Like being able to let go of a person... In battles... And in changes happening in life..." I said not crying anymore

"So you just keep your emotions inside? You know that's not going to work. One day you'll end up... Need i say more?" Rachel replied

"... Still... I'm a coward... What can i do? All i can do is deal with what's happening... Not like i can do anything... I can't do magic nor fight..." I replied

"Well... Maybe you really CAN do something... But... Only time will tell..." She said to me while smirking and going to the door

"What? H-hey! What did you mean by that?!" I said as she open the door and leaves

"..." I went silent at what she just said and what she meant from that...

~Rachel's POV~

"Haha, i know you were eavesdropping on us" i said after i left Moises' room and closed the door

"Uk... I-i wasn't eavesdropping... I just got bored without you guys and went here then i heard Moises crying and..." He defended himself

"That's eavesdropping..." I said

"Uk..." Was all he could say

"What part did you hear" i asked him

"The part where he started crying..." He replied

"Hmm... Get inside and try to talk to him" i said to him

"Wh-what? Why?" He asked

"He needs you to be at his side in this time..." I said

"Are... You fine with it?" He asked

"He seems down... Try and cheer him up... He seems to open up to you and shows his emotions when you're around him..." I said to him

"..." He was silent as he opened the door

*sigh* "wonder how this'll all turn out..." I said as i went to Christopher's father's room

~Moises POV~

I was thinking at what sis meant over what she said... Maybe she didn't really mean anything at what she said... But will i really get to be useful one day?... "Only time will tell" i smirked at the last line and saw my door open and saw Christopher

"Christopher? What are you doing here? Weren't you playing with your friends?" I asked him

"Well... It was boring without you there" he said with a smile and came closer

"I-idiot! Stop fooling around and go be a kid, you'll end up regretting this one day when you turn into a king..." I said

"But i want you to be there, it's no fun when you're not around" he said as he sat in my bed and got close to me

"Well you gotta get used to it. Not like i'll be with you my whole life" i said as i made distance

"Well.. Since your still here i want you to be around" he said to my while putting on a smile

"Well... I do want to be with him... But... Arg! "Emotions" i really hate them! But i gotta make a decision quick..." I thought to myself

"Come on lets be kids!" He said as he grabbed my hands and dragged me to who knows where

*sigh* "he's still being pushy..." I though to myself

~Rachel's POV~

I finally got to Christopher's dad's room and knocked at the door and opened it. I saw Christopher's dad reading the book we saw in the library yesterday. Huh. He guess he did kept it.

"Master?" I called to him

He looked back and said "oh, Rachel, what brings you here?"

I replied to him "about tomorrow... Is it really going to happen?..." I asked him in a sad tone

"I'm afraid so..." He said with a sad face

"Can't we at least try to stop it?!" I raised my voice at my master

"Just because we know something's gonna happen doesn't mean we can stop it... Something's are just meant to be..." He replied to me

"..." I was speechless at what he said... What he had said was true... That means we really cannot do anything about tomorrow's conquering...

"Master... Will you die tomorrow?..." I asked

"Yes... That's why i ordered you to protect the two kids remember?" He replied

"I have another order for you... Wake up early tomorrow and i'll give this book to you. Protect it and give it to someone who can handle the truth no matter how horrible things will go..." He said to me

Moises immediately came into my head

"Yes sir. I promise you..." I said to him kneeling

"Thank you... You still have some free time huh? Seems like a long day. Am i right? Haha, you may do as you please now" he said

"Haha... Yeah..." i checked the time and saw 5:05 "- it is..."
