Purgatory [Second book in the Lies Beneath Heaven series]

Chapter 4

~Sky's POV~

I walked into the giant building covered in white and kneeled. Right behind me were my friends Brandice and Reneé.

"You called?" I said lowering my head.

"Yes, as you know we are at war with the Demonics, there is an island in the White Ocean and I want you girls to go scout it out. It is in enemy territory but from what we've gathered they don't go over to the island much, go and see if we can use it as a base or if anyone lives there that might interfere" the queen of Angelics said.

"Yes ma'am, but who is in charge o this mission?" I asked.

"It's obviously me" Reneé said with a smug look.

"Sky will be in charge of this mission" the queen said.

"Thank you" I said standing up and bowing. As I turned to leave Brandice and Reneé got up, bowed an followed me.

"Let's go" I said as I transformed and flew into the sky. Reneé suddenly flew in front of me.

"Everyone follow me" Reneé said with her smirk that never goes away.

"Do you even know where you're going" I asked.

"Y-yes"

"Sure you do" I said rolling my eyes.

"I do! I-it's um...that way" Reneé said pointing in a random direction.

"That's the wrong way" I said.

"And how would you know?" Reneé asked. I grabbed a map out of my pocket and showed it to her.

"Well I was close" Reneé said shrugging her shoulders.

"Not at all" I whispered. As I continued to fly.

~Time Skip~

~Zara's POV~

"Ah!" I screamed as I dodged a ball of light.

"I really need to work on that" I said sighing. I looked up and saw a dark figure falling straight at me very quickly.

"What th-!?"I said as I fell down with the dark figure on top of me.

"Oh?! I'm so so sorry!" The figure said getting off of me and grabbing my hand to help me up.

"It's ok I guess" I said getting up.

"My names Brandice! What's yours? What's your favorite animal? Mines the manatee! Oh! Did you see a flying manatee? I saw one on the way here, I've been looking for him for ages! He always shows up then disappears!" The figure, who I now know is named Brandice said looking around. She had middle length blonde hair and blue eyes and white wings. From the moment I meet her I knew she was very hyper.

"U-um I'm Z-Zara and my favorite animal would be-" I said but then was cut off by someone landing in front off me and glaring at me.

"Who are you? You don't look tough at all" a girl with silver hair, light purple eyes, and white wings said.

"Reneé don't be so mean!" Brandice said. The girl with silver hair, who I assumed was named Reneé, gust glared at me and walked toward Brandice.

"Where's Sky?" Reneé asked Brandice. Brandice just shrugged her shoulders.

"You, have you seen a girl with blueish greenish hair and violet eyes?" Reneé asked in a sneering voice. All I did was shake my head. I heard something behind me and turned around.

"Who is this?" A girl with sky blue hair, silver eyes, and white wings said behind me.

"This is Zara! I fell on her!" Brandice said running up to the girl with sky blue hair and silver eyes.
