Chapter One
Can you seen the dead? Or perhaps the world that is hidden around you. I think not. If you know me than you will know that I am not a normal person. Okay, normal is the wrong word. I am an angel sent from heaven to help keep my friends and family safe. My name is Luna. I am a 1,500 year old girl who is blonde and blue eyed. I have tried to train hard over the years and keep the world in perfect balance. But I can't keep the promise I made to an old friend.
I have kept myself in hiding for three hundred years. Why because I was on a mission. I wish I could tell you but that is an angel secret. I have loved many people over the years. I have made some good friends, they may be gone but they are in my heart and in my memories. But now I must look for a person who has lost a lot in her life. Her name is Lily. She kinda remind me of myself. I have lost my family. I was adopted when I was very young. My sisters Cassandra and Serena are my sisters.
"Luna, where are the books that we borrowed from the library," asked Cassandra. Cassandra was way older than me. She is a tall brunnett with green eyes. In human years Cassandra looks like she is 18 but in angel years she is 1,800 years old. The angel age is so weird but that is how the lord wants it. I can't question it, I only agree with it.
"No, Sorry Cassandra I don't.... Wait I found them." I grab the books off the shelf next to the front door. I read a few pages of the first book in the pile. "Man this book is kinda boring."
Cassandra stands next to the fireplace and is holding a picture frame. We lost our mother many years ago. Serena and I were just born. Serena is my twin sister and Cassandra is our older sister. I am the middle child. Yay for me. Our adopted father is barely around so she has to take care of me and Serena. Serena is kinda mean to me and Cassandra. We try and have a simple conversation and Serena goes through the roof saying "You don't care about what I have to say. You are so mean to me". She goes off her head sometimes. She should go to the looney bin soon.
Time flies when you are in heaven. I have always wanted to be free. I have felt trapped for many years, I feel as though I can't escape from the world I know. I love being in heaven but some days I feel as though I am trapped in a small room and I can't get out.
I sit on the clouds and look at the world down below me. I barely get to leave heaven. I feel trapped, I just wish someone would set me free. If only people in heaven knew what I was going through. Many people look at me as a threat. Why would I want to hurt anyone. I have been told that when I was little my mother destroyed heaven, as if I believe that. People think I am going to become like my mother and destroy heaven again. I feel abused and no one appreciates me. I just wish someone other than my family could see who i really was.
Walking to the library alone gives me a little time to think. Thinking about nothing doesn't help, but thinking of what I want to do when I get my freedom is very enjoyable. I could think of hours on end and not even notice that time has gone by. Time is not on my side by the way.
I get the same book every time I go to the library. Romeo and Juliet is my favorite story, I have been reading it as long as I can remember. I read on the way back to my house. "Hey Luna, long time no see," says a familiar voice.
I turn and see Isacc. He is an old family friend, (I personal don't like him because he flirts with me and Serena, he could drive a person to drink if he annoyed you so much). "Isacc how have you been? I haven't seen in a few month," I try and sounds like I have missed him "I hear you have been able to go to Earth now when ever you want."
"Yay, the Elder Angels let me have my freedom early because I have an arranged marriage."
"Marriage? Who are you getting married to?"
"You," he said as he put his hand on my cheek. "The angels say this will be a marriage to remember."
I shake my head away and I walk away. "I will never marry you Isacc. Want to know why."
"Yes I would like to know why."
There was quite a distance between us by the time he finished his sentence. I would never want to marry Isacc. There are many reasons. 1-He is ignorant to all the girls he goes out with. 2- he never treats a women fairly. And 3-he is a selfish gready bastard who wants money and lots of sex. No one ever gives him both, come to think of it he never gets either of them. Everyone knows that he wants money, yet they give it to him. It really pisses me off when he gets money.
As I walked farther away from Isacc I wondered why I as supposed to be engaged to Isacc. He barely knows me. Now its time for me to stop my story and give you Isacc's story. Isacc was raised as a person who acts as though he is the king. We all know he is not the king.
I grow my angel wings and I fly out the gate. I sit on the clouds and I start thinking about why the angels would want me to marry Isacc. I am so pissed, but who am I pissed at. Am I upset with myself or am I upset with the angels and Isacc? I can't stand being in heaven so I jump off the clouds and fly away. I don't know where I am going, so I just fly around. I couldn't careless if I got in trouble. Nobody really cares about me.
I land under my cherry tree, the soft wind, the russle in the leaves, and the sound of the forest surround me. The harmony that goes on is so relaxing. I let my wings catch the soft wings. I can hear the soft rustle of feathers on my wings, feeling the wind makes me feel light and weightless. Cherry blossom petals fall around me, a few petals fall on my head, nose, and my shoulders. I seem to feel someones presence and I look and see no one. I guess its just my mothers presence.
