The Angels: The Dawn of an Angel

Chapter NINE

When I looked at Bethany, she was staring in the floor. Her right arm were resting in the counter top of the bar. She was grinning that time. I waited for her to speak but she remained quiet. "Your secret is safe with me." I told her. She looked at me with sly smile. "Well the truth is we are the same. I am a human angel. Half angel and half human. My mother fell in love with a human, which is very dangerous and wrong for the other angels. They think, that us Angels is the highest race."

"Why would they think of that?" I take a sip from the straw after saying that. "Some of the Angels grouped themselves to go against these human angels. That they see as a threat."

"Wait, so there are others?"

"Yeah after the dark ages. For human that time there is sickness. While us the erasing the human angels."

"What happened to the dark ages?" her smile was gone after asking her. She bowed down and did not say anything. She was drinking that time. Instead of vodka, she is now drinking whisky. "I was seven that time staying in a town called Folure a secret city in Europe that only angels can saw. For humans it's just an empty dead town. The city was the city of Human angels. We were rich, bounty, and peaceful. I was the youngest among ten children. The most talented and the most powerful among the siblings. Even though I was the strongest, I have weakness. I could see the glimpse of the future like your sister Cindy. I saw the war beforehand, I tried to warn my family but only few of my sibling believe me. I was stuck and tried to convince them the truth. The response that I got was laughter and despise. My older brother and sister believe in me because they know my capabilities. They believe in me when I predict their future who are they going to be with. The three of us packed our things to get ready. My mother told us to bring as well our twin baby siblings. Even it was hard to see her like that, we need to survive. As my brothers and sisters who did not believe in me left there celebrating and screaming for joy. As my mother, she was mourning like when my father left us.

The war came and the bubonic plaque as well. It was the sign that the war was already happening. We stayed away from the city. We stayed in France as a permanent home. People believe my two older siblings is my parents. I met many angels in France. I also discover the Plaza Angel where all of the angels in France meet and talk like this. There I heard that after the bubonic plaque the white queen decided to build an academy for all angels whether you are human angel or not. I also heard that only children survived and that I am a sure that my mother and other siblings are dead because of my vision. That's what happened among our kind."

"What happened next?"

"I joined the academy, my brothers and sisters too. We are trained to save humanity as the White Queen said. We are no superior nor inferior, we are all equal." She ordered once again for whisky. "What's your story?"

"My story" I chuckled. "I still don't know. I only know my older brother is chasing after me to kill me with his demons." I grabbed my drink and chug it all up. My senses started to tingle. I felt someone is coming. I grab one of my weapons and swing it in my hand. "What's wrong?" Bethany put out her hand to hold my weapon. "No, I can sense something. Someone is coming." I saw images flashing in my head. "Cosset what's wrong?"

"Call Edward." I took a grip in the bars of the table. "Ma'am are you alright." The bartender asked me. "I am fine." I saw Edward running towards me. It was all blurred. "Cosset" he caught me when I fall. "Cosset, tell me what is happening?" I looked at him. "Cosset, looked at me. The venom is attacking once again. I need you to hold me understand." I took a grip on his arm. Minutes later, I heard a huge explosion at his back. "Edward, it's not the time for this." Bethany told him. "Demons." Edward whispered sourly. "Cosset!" I was losing his grip little by little. Until I already drop it. I was numb all the time. I could not feel anything or hear anything. I could see blur images around me. I saw people running, children crying.

The images started to disappear little by little until I did not saw anything. I knew I already faint. I felt tons of energy getting in my bloodstream. The fluid started to flow gradually that lead me to pain. I am not screaming this time.

I suddenly opened my eyes and stood up as if nothing happened. I waved my sword, as I knew how to hold it. I was fast, powerful, and unbeatable. I shove my sword as the demons running towards to me. A child was crying. She was afraid tucking her head between her knees. I need to save her. I dash towards her before a demon hit her. I suddenly flashed something in my hand that leads the demon flying across the room. The girl looked at me with terror. "Don't be afraid, I am here. What's your name?"

"Thalia" I picked her up and ran. I was carrying her as we run towards the possible exit door. When we are almost there, demons blocked us. "Hold on tight." I whispered to her. She put a grip on my neck. She was still crying because of fear.

I flash my sword took a grip on it. As I swing it, I dragged it towards the heart of the demon. "Don't look," I told her. She buried her face on my shoulder as I keep on battling for our escape. The other unknown people helped me. A woman with a tattoo in her right neck helped me to escape. "Wait get her." I gave her Thalia. "I want you to run go to the Andrew residences that's the safest place that I know."

"Yes your majesty." They run away from the scene. I saw a familiar face coming in. He got long grey hair. He got flashy tattoo on his left arms. He was walking towards Charlie. Charlie is not aware that someone is at his back. I run as fast as I can before he killed him. I keep on running and running. I get my boy behind my back and my arrow in my jacket. Run Cosset, Run! I thought. "Father" He whispered. As Charlie turned around, his eyes got big. A demon is going to kill him, so I shoot him in his head that caught his attention. I put another arrow in the bow. Charlie stopped me. I was near him and the boy. "Cosset, lay low." Charlie told me as he put his weapons down. "My sister." He chuckled. "It's so nice to see you. Looked at you, you look so gorgeous. Indeed you got our mom's looks." He was walking towards me.

"Too bad you did not see her." I put my bow once again to make him stop. "Stop right there. I don't want to hurt you." He chuckle. "Come on little sister. I just want to have a little family reunion."

"Stop right there." he stopped. He raised his hand. He was picking up his weapon. I was going to shoot until someone got me. "Too bad you're blind after all." I fell down on my knees. I saw Charlie's face as he rushed towards me. "Cosset don't leave me please." I heard his whisper. "Dad for the last time, trust me." I raise my arms and say the words that just came out from my mouth. After that, I saw him flied across the room with a blood on his face. 

Then, I was done...
