The Fallen

Chapter 11

 "Where the hell did she go?" Liam asked while shielding his eyes from the sun who was bright as ever. People were walking around going place to place, while the three of them stood next to a crosswalk looking for any sight of wings. "She couldn't have got to far." Brendon said reassuring himself, not the others. "There!" Taylor yelled pointing in the direction where a pair a wings slip behind a door. They were already running over their getting to the door in record time. Brendon slammed the door open before running in with the rest behind him. Danielle was standing in the middle of the room, wide eyed holding the book to her chest. "What the fuck, Danny?" Brendon screamed waiting for an answer. "I-I was-"

"Don't be so harsh on the girl. She was just curious." Said a smooth deep voice interrupting Danielle. They all turned to the voice, where a man was standing on the stairs. He was wearing something you would see out of some movie where everyone is all snobby and rich. A rose vest and tight fitting black pants with dress shoes. The man had brown hair parted to the left, while the rest was in a quiff on the right side of his head. He had a five o'clock shadow for a beard around his thin lips. He stared at them all with bright blue eyes. "Who are you?" Brendon asked walking closer to the man while pointing at the man. The man looked down at Brendon with amusement. The man started walking down the stairs one foot at a time. When he reached the floor he was five inches taller the Brendon, but that didn't frighten Brendon one bit. "Dallon's the name. And Danielle she's in her area. She was wondering when you were going to come back." He said while sending Danielle a charming smile. Liam and Brendon both glared at Dallon. They were so into killing Dallon with galaring they didn't notice Danielle happily going to the coffin in the back of the room. Taylor caught her before she touched the back of coffin. "Danielle what are you-" But she couldn't finished as Danielle was already gone.

Danielle opened her eyes to the familiar ladies room. She was sitting at her desk in front of the shelf with books. She glanced at them then put her attention back on the old lady. "You made the book be blank." Danielle accused holding up the book in her hand. She walked closer to the desk where the lady was smiling. "Well off course. Wanted to make sure you didn't forget about your end of the deal."

"Then what is it? Money? Some magical book?" The lady made a hand gesture for Danielle to sit in a chair across from her. Danielle sat in the cushioned chair, crossing her legs. "What is it that you need." The old lady raised an eyebrow at Danielle, smirking. "I need something from the depths of hell." A cold chill went through the room as it seems to get darker. "What are you talking about? What is it?" Danielle was trying to sound un-fazed, and it was working as she took deep breaths. "There is this powerful weapon the devil has. Something I need. He has a wand that holds much power. And I can assure you by doing this it's going to help. Because Taylor is something both God and the Devil want. And you'll find what she is and how it works in that book." The lady said pointing at the book in Danielle's lap. Danielle wanted to say something to sound like it was nothing. But the lady was saying she was going to have to steal from the devil himself. "I need it. But you need to watch out. The devil has a staff that holds power to erase someone from existence." Danielle gulped as she held tighter onto the arms of the chair. If she would be hit by this power she wouldn't come back as an angel, she would be gone. "Y-you want me to get you a wand from the depths of hell?" Danielle asked while stuttering. She wanted to make sure she heard right. But the lady nodded and she fell into the back of her chair. What if she got caught? What if she would get "killed" or whatever it should be called. "You have to promise me something lady. No matter what happens to me that book will open and give answers even if I don't make it back with your precious wand." Danielle said to the lady. The lady had a crooked smile on her face. "You got yourself a deal. Now, let's make a plan"
