Chapter Nine
Dropping the Mortal's Life
Standing in front of chaos and misery, the world looks like hell in this reality. Naszech must hurry. He needs to find Enelra to give hope to humanity. He then looked up and spread his wings then flew to find his destiny.
Sid: Excuse me. Can you help me find what I am looking for?
Librarian: Yes. What can I do for you?
Sid: I am doing a research about angels and demons. Can you show me the section where I can find books that can give me information about it?
Librarian: I see. Just go straight this way (pointing to her right) and you will find a stair on the right side. Just go up there and you will find a room that is filled with what you are looking for.
Sid: Thank you so much.
Librarian: No worries. It's my pleasure to help people who really love reading books. (Smiling)
Sid smiled back at her then proceeded to the direction she pointed but stopped when he heard the librarian calling him.
Librarian: (A bit confused and startled) Excuse me mister!
Sid: Yes. Is there anything else you want to tell me?
Librarian: I don't know if it is my age and my imagination that is playing tricks on me but I thought I saw you have wings. (Smiling)
Sid: (Laughing) I hope I do have wings but that is what I am telling my cousin, I am an angel that falls from heaven.
Librarian: In that case you might need to check the journal written by someone who's making research about "The War in Heaven" and if I can remember it right, he told me her mom named him Gabriel. Maybe he is a friend of yours from heaven. (She giggled)
Sid: That is funny but maybe he is a friend of mine. (Smiling) What journal is that?
Librarian: He wrote something about some angels here on Earth that waits for salvation. How they arrived and when did they arrived. I checked it once and I think there is a map in that book showing the location where angels have fallen.
Sid: Thank you so much. I think that will really help me a lot.
Librarian: No worries. (Smiling) By the way, the title of the book is "Earth Angels".
Sid smiled at her and proceeded walking. Suddenly the book shelves became alive! Burning souls from the abyss of hell are trying to pull him from side to side. So determined to find Enelra, he pulled his sword and like his last battle in heaven, without fear, he enters the passageway and slashed all the hands that tried to stop him. Then, he saw a glowing a book that stands amongst thousands of books inside that realm. It looks so near but yet so far. It's in the middle of a never ending darkness but the glow it emits brings light in that abyss. Naszech opened his wings, spread it out then flew towards the book to get it but instantly the darkness turned into a blazing hell. The dragon appeared and started to burn all the books.
"You can't get the light and you will never find Enelra." Lucifer said.
Naszech got stunned for a minute, he hesitated but he heard a voice from nowhere.
"Sid drop your mortal life, you are Naszech, a fearless angel, one of the bravest warrior of God. This is your realm. You made this world. Own it! Don't fear the light bringer. Go straight and grab the book to find the answer and to find Enelra." a voice that sounded like Gabriel said.
Sid is now awakened. He now remembered that he is Naszech. He is an immortal angel, a warrior for a good cause. He then drew his sword and flew straight towards the book.
"I am Naszech, an angel of God and I fear no light bringer like you Lucifer." he shouted bravely.
"Then I will burn your human body together with your soul." Lucifer angrily shouted.
"Again I am Naszech, a fearless warrior angel. You don't have dominions or reigns in this realm of mine. I will stop you." Naszech answered bravely.
"Then burn!!!" the dragon said.
He started releasing his fiery breath, burning everything it touches. It is a fire from hell, so hot that it quickly turned anything to ashes instantly. He is in that state of havoc that he didn't realized that Naszech is already flying above him. Then the fearless angel quickly swings his sword hitting the dragon's neck. It is so swift that the light bringer didn't know that he is already decapitated. His head rolled down but still breaths fire. A few more seconds then it stopped, followed by the dragon's body falling down.
Librarian: Hey! What happened here? Thank goodness you are okay.
Sid: I don't know but when I reached the room, it's already on fire. Good thing that there is a good working fire extinguisher near the stair.
Librarian: Thank you so much for helping and for putting that fire out. It burned so many precious books but you managed to save a lot more.
Sid: I am just doing what I can do. It is a good thing that I saved the journal you've mentioned. I got some burns and few scratches but I saved it. (Smiling)
Librarian: The emergency response team has already arrived. Have your cuts and burns check.
Sid: I will just read the book first and then I will go ahead.
Librarian: Let the firemen clear the area now just to make sure. You can take the book if you want and just return it anytime when you are done with your research.
Sid: Really?
Librarian: You saved my library and that's not enough to thank you.
Sid: This is more than enough. Thank you so much.
Librarian: Thank you too. Now, have your wounds and burns attended. Go.
Sid walks slowly towards the ambulance. He now holds a book that will lead him to Enelra. Happy within, he now fears no death cause he already dropped his mortal life.
