Angels and Demons ~MiniCat

Chapter 2

Craig's/MiniLadd's POV
       So, since I'll be visiting here for a while, I'm going to need to find a place to sleep, but how? What do humans do to gain homes? I could always sleep in the meadow I landed in earlier, but how am I going to get food? How do the humans get food? From what I learned I heaven, they have jobs to gain money. Welp, it looks like I'm going to have to find a job!
       I closed my eyes and made my wings disappear. I opened them up again and started my miniature journey to find a job opening. After an hour or so of searching, I found a bar with a sign on the window. "Help wanted. Bartender." I read allowed.
       Bingo! I walked into the small establishment to the sound of glass breaking and blazing music. I sat on a bar stool and got the bartender's attention. "What would you like, sir?" The woman at the register asked. "Um, I saw the sign in the window and I was hoping to get a job here." I explained. She nodded. "Great! Let me go get the manager and he'll interview you right away!" She said happily.
       I patiently waited for her. She eventually came back with a man who looked to be in his late 30's. "Come with me." He stated, motioning me to come to the back with him. I did as I was told and followed him into what looked like an office.
       There was a long desk in the middle of the room. On it was a computer monitor as well as trash, picture frames, a stack of papers, and a small cup with a hand full of pencils in it. On one side of the desk there was a large office chair. On the other side were three smaller office chairs.
       "Take a seat." The man stated. I nodded and sat at the middle chair as he sat in the large chair across from me. "So kid, what's your name?" He askes. "Craig Thompson." I answer. He nods and continues. "What brings you here?" He asks. "Well, I'm looking for a job. I'm running low on money." I reply. He nods again, humming. "How long have you lived in the city?" He questions. "Only for a few hours, sir." I answer politely. "Where did you live before you moved here?" He asks.
       Fuck! What do I tell him?! "F-Far away. Really far away." I stuttered, hoping he'd take it and move on to the next question. "Really far away, huh?" He asks. I nodded. He gives me a suspicious look and moves on.
       "Are you good at anything in particular?" He asks. "Flying." I blurted, going pale when I realized what I had just said. He's going to think I'm insane! Now I'll never get the job! "Amazing! So you're a pilot?! It would be awesome to have an actual pilot in our little team here... You're hired!" He exclaimed happily.
      Well shit... I guess he doesn't think I'm insane. "I'm Brock and I'll be your manager. I'll have your uniform and name tag ready for you in the morning!  I'd go home and get some rest for tomorrow if I were you. It can get pretty hectic in here. I need you here at 1:00 PM to collect your uniform and you'll come here for work 6:00 PM everyday. Since I like you I'm going to give you your first paycheck today. You'll make $50 a week so I'm going to give you your $50 check today and on Friday. How hard you work will determine how much your paid and whether I keep you or not." Brock explained. I nodded and he pulled a check book out of his pocket and filled it out.
       He handed me the check and shooed me out. I quickly left the bar and looked around for a bank, eventually finding one.
Time Skip Past the Whole Bank Thing because it would be Boring as Shit
       I explored the city, looking for mall or a store in general. I managed to make my to a large pinnacle. I walked into an appliance store and searched for an alarm clock so I could wake up in the morning. I found a wireless digital alarm clock worth $8.50. Pretty cheap if you ask me. I bought it and looked for a secluded place to reveal my wings and fly back to the meadow.
       I finally decided to go behind an old apartment building. Once I was there, I closed my eyes and made my wings reappear. I smiled and jumped into the air, taking off. I waited until I was extremely high in the air to fly away. I quickly made my way to the meadow and landed in the middle.
       I set my alarm for 11:30 AM and laid on the ground, staring at the stars which were slightly harder to see because of the time. I sighed, wrapping my wings around my body to keep me warm for the night. My eye lids grew heavy and I quickly fell asleep.
