Angel's Wish

Chapter One: Her Wish

"Ahhhhhhh!" I screamed as pain slowly spread through my body.

A luminous light covers my flesh.

I don't think I can make it.

Am I dying, despite of being an angel?

Am I already giving up?

This is just the start.

Am I starting to regret my decision to ever ask God for this?

Or is this already destined to happen?

I want this. I really do, but why does it have to be this hard, so painful.

I hugged my knees closer to my body in order to somehow, ease the pain.

My wings are slowly fading away. I feel my power, losing its strength. My eyes are heavy, from both tears and weariness. I'm slowly getting out of my consciousness. I don't know what to do anymore to bear this pain inside and out of my body.

I heaved a very deep sigh.

This is it. My downfall. I can't take it anymore. My will's resiliency is failing.

And then, flashes of memories and reasons came up to my mind.

Him. And everything he's going through. I want to touch him. I want him to see, not just only feel, that he is not alone. That He has me. I want to help him, through the most difficult battle of his life.

I saw pictures of him, crying, weeping, mourning, grieving, tired, weary and already giving up.

"Noooo!" I screamed, as I saw all of it casting away.

I stretched my arms, trying to prevent them from vanishing.

"I want to be with him." I murmured to myself, closing my eyes as I breathed my last breath...

As an angel.

"Hmm?" I get up from the snow, from where I was lying.

"Ugh," I complaint as I held my head that aches and my body that hurts because of pain.

I looked around, this is not heaven.

A bed of snow embodies the surrounding, with pine trees arranged in an unknown kind of manner.

I walk around embracing my arms together, trying to warm myself up. It's so freezing, and I'm just wearing a white flowing dress, bare footed. My long aqua-color hair, is quite helping but not much. My lips are shivering and I feel like my bones are getting rigid. Even feeling that my body is covered with ice.

I walked around more when finally, I saw a house.

It's familiar.

I quickly run towards it, anxious of the heat inside.

Reaching the door feels like forever, but I did.

I knocked.

"I don't have money to pay!" The man yelled from inside.

"B-but I'm not a debt collector!" I answered, yelling back. Making sure he heard me.

Then foot steps tread towards the door finally, opening it for me.

"I don't have money to give for a beggar like you." He said, coldly looking directly into my eyes. It was hypnotizing.

And then, I snapped out of it.

Flashes of the events earlier filled my mind.

I'm already a human. And my wish is right in front of me. A man with a black hair-parted side ways-, black eyes, red thin lips and a fair complexion is staring back at me.

My eyes are wide and my mouth is slightly open.

And I remembered his name.

"R-raven,"
