The Angels: The Dawn of an Angel

Chapter FOUR

I was staring at the mirror with many questions in my head. Who am I? Why these creatures are trying to kill me? I took a big sigh and opened the shower. As the water drops on the floor, a picture visited my head. A beautiful young woman, blond colored hair, pale skin, and black eyes. When the woman smiled, I went back to my mind full of question. What was that? Who is she? Moreover, what is happening to me? I cleaned myself. After cleaning myself, I checked my wounded arm to know how deep the damage is. I was astonished when I checked the wound because it was already been healed. No remains left in my arm, no wound or anything that reminds me the battle I went in.

I went my dressing room and picked something. I just picked the normal t-shirt, pants, sneakers, and hoodie. As I fixed myself, someone knocked on my door. It was more on the sound of elegant woman waiting for me to answer. "Who is it?" I went to my bed space to fix my room. "Lauren, father wants us to have a family meeting downstairs for interrogation. You have five minutes to finish whatever you doing there." She sound more like tense. I knew she left my door because of her heels ticking in the hallway. I try to convince myself that nothing is wrong.

Nevertheless, the fear remains. Each creature I killed, their eyes were begging to me to let them go or free them. Okay, I admit I never kill anyone before today, no one. I knew that someone will be coming back to my door and telling me my five minutes is over. I realized I was just standing on the middle of my room, frozen and let everything sink in. I was too shocked on what happened today. Knowing people with powers, swords, creatures, or characters in a storybooks do exist. Not just who are they is the big question, another question is who are they exactly? I started to walk towards my door carrying inside my mind the question laying on my head.

I walk down from the stairs, with a little groggy because of what happened. "Cosset!" Cindy excitedly approached me. "Where's the other's?" She took my elbow and started to walk. "They already there, you're the only left." She giggles. She was like an irritating bell that rang too loud. Because of that, my head ache harder than before. "Okay" I try to be polite. We were walking on the other side of the house it was filled with vintage-gothic colors. "Sorry about the colors." Cindy murmur. "What?" she give me a grin. "This hallway, are prohibited when our ancient cousins are here. They like the colors, they remind of their era." Ancient cousins, wow, how old are they. I thought. "How old are they? The ancient cousins you were telling about."

She pointed the portrait of a woman dressing in an 1800's, "This is Lady Camila, and she built this house. Actually this is already been improved because of time. She died at the age of five hundred." Another portrait of a man wearing civil war uniform. When I read the label, his name is "Martin Lopez" he was the second generation of a clan. "He is 300 years old." Cindy murmured. Then "Albert Andrews and Odette Andrews." They were fifth generation of a new clan. "They are your grandparents." Cindy whispered. "Who are you exactly?" I asked. "We are angles, we fight against demons. In your case you're a half human and half angel which is unknown possibilities for the Court Circle that you are safe for our kind." She sound a little sad when she said that. "On the labels why only one and five are here. Where are the others?" I crossed my arms in my chest while walking. "They all are falling angels. Fallen angels are forbidden to remember. You know what the fourth generation are the best angels even they were only five. Even the Court Circle is afraid of them and their abilities. Five of them have abilities." She sounds a little playful. "Fallen angels?" I asked curiously. "They are the ones who revolt against the Court Circle. If an angel found out to be rebellious, they will be a mortal."

"So three generation was held revolution by this clan." She nod. I felt curious on why would they do that. "We are here." Before I asked another question, she interrupts me by pulling something in the wall. A gold handle was on the wall that she pulled. "Just stick with me I don't want you to get harm." The wall started to creek slowly. When it started to wide-open Cindy went inside. The room was full of weapons. 'This is where we train. Especially when we need." It was little blurry when you looked inside the room. "Sorry I forgot. Lights!" the lights started to on automatically. "So what do you do?"
