unknown angel

Goodbye

Last night I fell asleep last night face timing max. What can I say it was the first night of summer so after hanging out with them him and lizzy -we even dragged chase out of amber- I talked to him for hours and hours. It must have been 3am before I fell asleep. Its finally summer. And my god I am excited to not go to school.

I eat breakfast in my galaxy dress. It's the only dresses I can wear to school and too amber. I throw on my jean jacket over to disguise my wings. My dad was planning on going to amber with me. I was going to walk around by myself for a while.

All of the sudden someone rings the doorbell like three times then pounds on the door. I look at my dad for a moment then without saying anything I walk into the bathroom and lock the door. I hear my dad open the door.

"Hey Max...alright then" my dad says as I hear footsteps then my dad closing the front door. I open the bathroom door to see max.

"Angel we got to go." Max says holding my shoulder. Suddenly we are in Amber and Max is exhausted sitting on the curb of the street. The building across the street bursts into flames. Then one down the street did. Lizzy comes running down the street.

"Angel! You have to stop this." Liz says stopping a few feet infront of me.

"What?"

"That." she points to the sky just as a dragon flys over.

"You try and put out these fires I will hand the dragon." Max says getting up.

"No Max. This is my destiny. Its what I was born to do." I say. "You put out the fires and meet me at chases in two hours." without waiting for a response I kiss him and leap into the air, feeling the wind between my feathers. It takes me back to when I did this for the first time all that time ago. Before meeting Chase, before meeting Max, before everything changed. Quickly I am pulled back to the present when my wing nearly catches on fire.

"Hey!" I yell to get the dragon's attention. "Yea you. Why don't you pick on someone your own size." with that the dragon stopped aiming at the houses and the schools. Now he was focused on killing me. I know what I have to do. I have read mom's journal enough to know that this is where it ends for me. Mom knew she was the last of her kind. She knew that if
she had kids with who she wanted to (my dad) then her kid (me) would either a) be a normal mortal or b) a angel who would be the exception and protect the land from disaster. The thing is I would also die in the process. so I know what I have to do. I pulled a feather from my wing last night, put it in a glass jar and enchanted it. The next person to touch it will have children with angel wings when I die. There's a note to Lizzy, Max, Chase, and my Dad sitting on my shelf with it. Lizzy is to carry on my story (this one) and then her kids will continue it for me. the thing is. I never knew how hard it would be to do this. Using all the energy I have I shoot water at the dragon. I notice a line of green powers and then blue then orange. I look down the three of them are helping. I then see pink and black, yellow, red, purple, tens than hundreds of powers streaks are aimed at the dragon. I smile as the light from my streak flickers. I look to lizzy and chase. They are holding hands then look to max who is staring at me as my streak stops and i black out.

Max P.O.V

I know what she is thinking. I look at her as her streak flickers then stops. She has a smile on her face as she falls. I sprint to catch her. Her wings hit the ground as I catch her. She looks as if she is asleep. Her eyes closed blond hair falling over her eyes. Her arms and legs hanging. the feathers of her wings lying on the ground as I yell for help. Lizzys the first to my side. Before I know it the dragons down, she is lying on a gurney being shocked with electricity from the paramedics fingers.

She in the trauma room at amber's hospital. I sit in the waiting room. I feel as if I have been here before. Sitting in a hospital waiting room, waiting. Last time I was comforting Angel, this time Lizzy is comforting me and Chase is comforting her. Her dad comes running in with her aunt on her heels. They see Lizzy and I sitting there and automatically her aunt crumples starting to cry. Her dad wipes away a tear he has been holding back when he sits next to me. For what feels like hours we sit in silence, Lizzy braiding her green streak and dark hair back into a ponytail. Finally someone comes out.

"Family of Angel" a girl in deep purple scrubs says. Her dad gets up first. Her aunt Sara still holding his hand. I watch as Sara again breaks into tears. the look on the doctors faces i know, Angels gone. She sits down as her father follows a nurse, Lizzy, Chase and I get up and follow him. Angels gone. The woman says her speal about doing everything they could. Angels gone. I sit next to her. Her hand cold in mine. Angels gone. Her dad bends down to kiss his daughter on the forehead, Lizzy can't even go past the doorway. She sits out in the hall on the floor crying. Angels gone. We stay like that for a while. Her dad taking in her smell so he doesn't forget it, me holding her hand, chases hand on lizzys shoulder as she cries in the hallway. Finally Lizzy stops and finds her way to the chair beside me. She rests her head on angel's forehead moving her lips but not saying words her way of saying goodbye. I close my eyes as hold her hand taking in every detail I can feel. Her laugh, her voice, her smile, everything about her runs through my head. I stand up and walk out of the room.

"Angel?" Lizzy says quietly. "I thought we agreed we were staying her together."

"We are." I here her say. Running into the room I feel a huge smile spread across my face, I don't care her dad is right there. I kiss her anyway. She laughs as I kiss her lips, then her cheek, her forehead, her nose.
