There's A Fallen Angel On My Roof...But Why Does He Have Fangs?

Part 24

*hey guys, sorry if you find this chapter boring :/ I just felt like adding a bit to Owen and Ada's relationship, and a bit of a hint into Ada's past. Also if you guys could comment on improvements and what you like and don't like and whatnot that would be great!

After hours of tossing and turning, trying to sleep I finally managed some dreamless shut eye. It didn't last long as I was awoken by a loud rapid knocking. I stayed in bed not wanting to get up; I hoped that If I left it long enough whoever it was would leave.

I was wrong. They kept knocking.

With a roll of my eyes I got up and opened it, Rosemary stood at the door with a medium sized box under her left arm. Her pastel pink hair loosely waved,

"Finally!" She sighed "this came for you"

"From who?" I asked confused. She shrugged

"Nice underwear" she said handing me the box. I looked up at her confused, then realised I was still in my underwear. I used the box to try and shield my half naked body, "relax. It's not like I don't know what the human body looks like" she waved her hand walking in. I quickly put on a pair of shorts and a tank top.

Examining the box I could see no signs of postage stamps or anything that would give away where it came from, the only thing on it was my name. I tugged at the tape and gently opened the box. I gasped slightly as Rose looked over my shoulder and did the exact same thing. Inside the box were weapons...gleaming silver weapons. I picked up a small dagger and removed the cover, both handle and tip were silver but the rest of the blade was made of ruby, filed sharply at the edges and tip, there were several other blades but none like this ruby one, underneath the silver handle there seemed to be a raised bit, I pressed on it and suddenly the blade shot up

"Woah. Shit. Why, that is damn cool" I said swinging the sword around gracefully. I don't know how, but I feel comfortable with this sword, like I have held it before...a sudden image of fire burned behind my closed eyelids, and a silhouette of a girl with the sword in tow, the ruby of the blade looking almost invisible amongst the blazing red and orange of the fire. The only thing distinguishing it was the silver tip of the blade, but it too was reflecting the vivid colours of the fire, half illuminating it and half camouflaging it. The figure seemed to be playing with fire as she lifted the sword and swung it to the ground...

"Hey there's a letter here" Rosemary's voice snapped me out of my trance, a memory I felt. I looked at her "you seem awfully dazed today"

"Sorry, I haven't slept much" I winced, my back was hurting. I walked over and took the letter in Rose's hand "thanks"

'My dearest Angel,

You have here a box of weapons that I think you may be in need of very soon. They have been cleaned and returned to you in excellent condition. Just how you always kept them. Things are about to change. And you my dear sweet angel are at fault, I hope you can bare the consequences and right what you have done wrong.

All my love'

They didn't sign with a name or initial, and it was all typed. This person didn't want to be caught doing his humble deed I guess, I folded it and placed it on my bed sword still in hand. I pressed the button under the handle and the blade retracted back into its original small dagger form. These all used to belong to me? Thats interesting. I placed it back in the box, I would look at the rest later

"Ada, what's that on your back?" Rose asked reaching over, she stroked at something that was poking out of my skin, "are those feathers?"

I got up and stood in front of my bathroom mirror, and turned so my back was visible, i took off my tank top and surely enough there was three more feathers poking out and a rough feeling texture going all the way down my back in two deep Vs stretching from my shoulder blades to the small of my back, Rose came in and gasped
