Chapter 5
The screams stopped. The attacker took his final breaths, and died a few moments after Danny stabbed him. He jumped off the man and ran over to his sister.
"Scarlet?" He whispered, flipping her on her back. There was no blood, but she was decorated with different colored bruises. She was was passed out, which made him even more angry at the man who hit her. The angel pulled his red headed sister into his lap, and held her. All was quite, for now at least.
After an hour or two, the streets grew quite. There was not a sound. Except for the thunder that roared across town. It was followed by a voice, the same one that spoke to Danny when he first died. "Daniel Darkshire, you have broken your vow!" It roared, and Danny's heart stopped. He had killed a man, he committed a sin. "I had to protect my sister!!" He shouted to no one in particular. Everything in the room seemed to grow darker, and Danny felt his body change.
"Your punishment is to be thrown to hell! Cast away from the heavens! Satan shall watch over you now!" The voice shouted, then he went through the change. His once white wings turned to a deep shade of black, and his eyes faded to a blood red. The boys muscles doubled their size, and his perfect teeth sharpened to fangs, and his fingernails became claws.
"Scarlet can't see my like this..." He gasped, looking down at his once white appearance. He picked up his sisters nearly lifeless body, and Carried her back to her apartment. Well at least that's what his instincts told him. He placed her down on her bed, and kissed her forehead. "I'm sorry I failed.." He whispered, and disappeared into a cloud of smoke.
