My Highlander, My Love, Part Three:Forbidden Love, The Greatest Love Story Ever Told.

The Light of the World

The evil monster eyed Alana with interest, he already suspected who she was, but he did not fear her. His nostrils flared as he sniffed her scent, and verified that she really was the Light of the World. 

Alana's smile widen and her eyes sparkled with triumph, "You will not get what you want evil one, not tonight, not ever!" 

Fire blasted from his ears and the evil one opened up his mouth and roared thunderously. "I will shred you to pieces and destroy earth, for I am the master of the universe!"

"There is only one master of the universe evil one, and that is GOD and GOD alone, HE has created and rules everything and anything that has ever existed!" Alana told him.

"And you believe that you're master can save you from me?" The evil one asked.

"He created me for that purpose, I am The Light of the World, and i can tell from the way you look at me that you already know this! Tonight you shall die, and all evil will die with you!"

It was the evil ones turn to smile, "Even if I do die tonight, I will come back and you know this to be true!" 

"Yes, but it will be ages before your black soul will be unchained and you gain your powers back and by then, there will be more beings of light that will destroy you again, for it is your fate and destiny to be weaker than us! You are not stronger or smarter than GOD, and you will always lose!" Alana told him, knowing that her words would be the last straw for the monster and she prepared herself.

The evil one opened his mouth wide and roared thunderously, his tail thumped on the ground and the ground shook, striking fear in the hearts among the thousands of Druids and Fays that stood around Time Square in a Warriors stance prepared to fight till their deaths to kill the enemy.

Gabriel prepared himself, he knew that this was it, the monster will strike. The giant archangel breathed over the top of Alana's head and a halo of light glowed around her, just as the evil one lifted his hand and tried to knock Alana off her feet, but the light was like a powerful sheild around the Druidess and the evil one grew even angrier knowing that he could not penetrate through the light. 

Everyone watched as the halo of light that surrounded the Druidess grew even bigger and stronger, blinding the evil one, as he tried to fight against it. The archangel noticed that the evil one was planning to use all his knowledge and strength to break the sheild and Gabriel opened his huge wings and wrapped them around Alana. 

"I love you," Gabriel said hoarsely, knowing that this was the only chance he would have to tell her how he felt in his heart, after Alana defeats the evil one, he will leave earth and go back to the heavens. 

Alana's heart beat wildly against her chest, "Gabriel!" She cried desperately, "don't leave me!" She knew that this was it, he would leave her and she would never see him again. 

"My job is done, I must return to the heavens, but I will only be a breath away Alana." He swallowed a lump in his throat, and his eyes pierced through hers lovingly.

"No Gabriel don't leave me! I love you, I have always loved you!" Wrapping her arms around his waist, she cried a river of tears.

"Stop," His voice sounded tortured, "forget me and live your life to the fullest!"

"Never! I love you and will never love another!" 

Gabriel pulled her away from him, "You will find love again Alana, I promise you, and you will live a happy life." Even as he said those words his heart tore in two.

"No Gabriel please don't leave me!" She pleaded.

"I will never really leave you, when you miss me, all you have to do is look up in the night sky, I will be in the stars above, I will be in the moon and the sun, I will be in the wind, and surround you with peace Alana. When you call my name, I will be in the shooting star making all your dreams come true." And with those words, Gabriel did the one thing that he had never done before, he cried. Tears glided down his handsome face, and he did the one thing he promised he wouldn't do, lowering his head, he kissed her passionately, tasting her sweet lips hungrily, knowing that it would be the last time he would ever do so.
