Wings

Ch. 04: Two Can Play That Game

Efah tried to keep her cool even though there was a light angel two rows in front of her. All her life she has done nothing but hide from them hoping and praying that she would never encounter one, but here she is with one in the same room.

But one thing did catch her eye. Jasper and him knew each other somehow some way. Efah was lost in thought and wasn't really paying attention to the teacher until, "Who here can tell me about Fallen and Dark Angels?" Those words caught her attention real quick.

A girl raised her hand and the teacher called on her. "Fallen angels are angels that fell from heaven and dark angels are Lucifer's angels."

"Correct Ms. Brick. Fallen angels were angels that fell from heaven for different reasons, and dark angels are Lucifer's angels. They are evil and go against God's will." Efah rolled her eyes. This lesson is so wrong in many different levels. Efah is a dark angel and she never went against God's will, and she couldn't help her parents were idiots and fell from heaven. But people think Light Angels are these beautiful and forgiving people with white wings and halos when they're monsters.

They killed an innocent girl who's never hurt anyone in her eight years of living. Efah flinched her fist. If she made an outburst she would give up her true identity, and that's the last thing she needed. She sneakily placed headphones in and played Fallen Angel by Three Days Grace.

After an hour and thirty minutes, the class finally ended and Efah rushed out. She went walked around the hallway until she spotted Jasper and the light angel talking. Efah decided to stand around the corner and listened in. "We can't just present her to the council without knowing what she is Castiel."

"She is an angel Jasper. That's enough." Castiel snapped at her.

"But she doesn't have the same aura as you. She's different."

"Okay so she's not a light angel but she is still an angel and that's what we need to present to the council."

"But what if they ask us what type of angel she is. If we don't have the answer they will refuse to see her."

"Well have you tried to talk to her?"

"Yes. But she doesn't talk much. She isn't a people person." Cas groaned and pulled his hair.

"We have to bring her to the council."

"I'm not."

"What?"

"I refuse to bring her to the council until I know more about her."

"We don't have time for this Jasper."

"I won't do it Castiel. I refuse."

Castiel muttered something to Jasper and walked off. Efah saw a tear roll off Jasper's cheek. Efah bit her lip and walked away. She had millions of questions running through her mind. The main is: 'What is the council?'

Efah walked into the cafeteria and grabbed a hamburger with fries. She saw Jasper was surrounded by people, laughing it up. 'Huh she must be those popular rich girls.

Efah sat outside under a tree. She ate her food in peace. She watched her surroundings. "How come your outside?" Jasper asked sitting next to her.

"Peaceful."

"But why alone?"

"Why the hell do you want to know so damn bad about me? So you can run off and tell your council?"

"How do you know about that?"

"Don't think I didn't feel your presence following me, or I followed you and heard you and Castiel talking about forcing me to see people.  Stop acting like you care because you don't, and stay out of my life because who or what I am is no ones business got it."

Jasper stepped back in shock. Efah threw her food away and looked at Jasper over her shoulder. "That was your first and last warning. Don't test me." With that Efah walked away.

She walked out of school and got on her bike to drive home. Once she walked in there she found a note saying her "parents" were out of town again.  She threw the paper away and sat at the table putting her face in her hands.

She was lost in thought when someone grabbed her shoulder. She turned around and punched the person in the face. She moved back to see Castiel holding his jaw. "Damn. For a girl you pack a punch." he said smirking at her.

"Why are you here?"

"I have a few questions."

"Oh yeah well go screw yourself." She turned to walk away,  until Cas grabbed her waist, spun her around and pushed her against the wall. Before she could escape he pressed his body against her's.

Efah tried to get out but he was way to powerful for her. "Now give up and I'll let you go. Your choice."

"Aw and miss kicking your butt? I'll pass." She managed to get a hand free and tried to punch him but he caught her fist. He smiled and turned her around to where her back was pressed against his chest. "I like this passion. It means I'm in control. So you still want to fight?"

"Yup." She kept trying to move but he pressed himself harder against her. She stiffened when he put his face in her neck. "You smell good." he whispered in her ear. He then chewed on her earlobe. Efah felt disgusted but she was well aware of what he was doing. He was trying to seduce her, thinking he'll get the answers he needs.

Well two can play at that game. Efah managed to turn herself around and grabbed Castiel's belt loop pulling him towards her. They're lips were inches apart when she smirked and said, "Men are so easy."

Before he could react she slammed her knee into his crown jewels. He fell on the ground in pain. She got on top of him and held an angel blade against his throat.

"You're a tricky little angel, aren't you?" Efah slammed the bottom of her angel blade against his head, which knocked him out.

She put the necklace off which revealed her raven colored wings. She grabbed him and flew to a spot nearby, where she dropped him. Literally dropped him. The impact didn't kill him, because angels can only die by angel blades.

Efah flew back home and hid her wings. She went to the bathroom to see her markings were showing through her makeup. She mentally cursed herself. If Cas saw those markings then she was in trouble. The only thing she can do is hope and pray he didn't see them. Guess she'll find out tomorrow.
