The Fallen

1 {Iris}

     No. I messed up. He lied. He betrayed me. I was so naïve! I helped a demon kill the person I had to guard. No. God would for sure punish me greatly for messing up this badly. A Guardian Angel helping a demon. I'm so sorry Eli, I had let you down, I didn't do my job. I failed you Eli. I let you die.

    God was loving and caring, has made beautiful things, but of course he was also Just, and will punish if He must. I looked myself in the mirror, the flowing white dress going to my feat. My black hair straightened an inch above my shoulders. My blue eyes filled with tears. I dropped to my knees, bowed my head, folded my hands, and prayed.

    "I'm sorry Father, I have let you down. I have broken the rule of Heaven, and will await my punishment." I spoke, tears streaming down my face. "Forgive me Father for I have sinned, have done something no angel of any rank should do. I'm sorry God. Amen." Soon after that two other Angels, my brothers came to take me for what I have done, and what I deserved.

     Brothers. Sisters. All Angels and Demons were related, Demons were just Fallen Angels, and the Devil, was Big Brother Lucifer. He was the first Corrupted son of God. Lucifer had slowly been dragging us, his siblings, down to Hell with him. To a place of pure torture, agony and pain. He had been dragging us out of Heaven of beauty, relief and happiness. Both places eternal. I just hoped I didn't have to join Big Brother Lucifer, Big Brother Gabriel would be upset, since he was close to Lucifer before his falling... Gabriel was nice, and a high-ranking angel, the Messenger of God.

     I looked at the two taking me to the Lion. Ethan and Rodger. Their features were sharp and bold. Ethan had curly blond hair that swept over his blue eyes. He was muscular and built, he'd for sure stand out in the humans world. Rodger had slicked back amber hair, his blue eyes icy and dazzling, he had the same figure as Ethan. The features of an angel would always stand out in the human world, for their bodies were made for perfection, and a big difference to spot an angel or demon was they they had no navel.

     We walked in silence until we saw the Lion sitting next to the small Lamb. Father and Son. God and Jesus. Ethan and Rodger let me go and walked away. I kneeled, bowed my head, and got up when the Lion nodded.

     "Iris, the guardian angel with much love and spirit. You helped a demon kill the boy you protected for so long." He spoke with a strong, gentle and firm voice. Mesmerizing. I nodded. "You know I cannot let this slide." I nodded again. God stood and walked to me, even as a Lion it was beautiful how he strides.

     "Iris, from now one you are a Fallen Angel. You will be taken to the blessed meadow." He spoke with such greatness.

     The meadow was a beautiful place, God had blessed it, who knows how long ago. There was no time in Heaven, all we know is that we are old but seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, years, they didn't matter in Heaven. They didn't exist here. Only in the human world.

     "You will live a new life. You will not remember your life here. You, Iris, are banned from Heaven, for helping a demon kill the one you needed to protect." He said.

      Wait. I won't remover Heaven? I won't remember my friends of my family? I won't remember my sin? God? No. That couldn't be. It couldn't. It... it... it was my punishment. I nodded and kneeled. I felt a paw on my forehead, and closed my eyes.

     I opened my eyes, looked around at the large trees. "Wow" I said. This was my home, a beautiful meadow with a pond, trees, animals and mother. I had grown up here for about twenty five years. I stood up and headed to the largest tree in the meadow, folding my white wings with a purple tint behind me. I looked at the large tree, "hello mom" I smiled.
