Chap. 2

My wings were begging to be let loose. I flew over the town, and decided to

visit the hospital and look for any healing I could do. I was eager for anything

to tie me to my heavenly home. I landed in the trees behind the building and

buttoned up my shirt enough to be decent. The flight to have done nothing what

so ever to rejuvenate my morals, but I was willing to try something else. As I

walked in there was an ambulance unloading. I looked around and saw a woman and

a man both being carried from the automobile to the building in a great hurry.

Then a car came skidding into the lot, and a girl in white heels, a jean skirt

and a red, strawberry colored top came running over in a rush of blond. It was

Eve. I looked up to the heavens, realizing the depth of the situation. My powers

could revive them, 'them', obviously being her parents. They looked almost

exactly like her - all except the blood. I jogged to the doors and went in, my

wings disappearing.

"Eve?" I acted confused. "What're you doing here?" she turned and faced me.

"She is stable. Broken arm, but other than that only bruised and cut. She will

be perfectly fine. But you Dad, it appears, tried to pull the plug. Meaning to

speaking. So they were arguing, and your father shot himself in the shoulder.

Your Mother ran for help, falling down two flights of stairs." I looked at Eve.

"Will my Dad be alright?" she asked, clearing her raspy throat.

"As of now, we are doing everything in our power to keep him alive. There is a

good chance he will be okay, but recovery will take time. He's lost an extreme

amount of blood."

"Okay." she whispered. Eve sighed and the nurse led us to a more private waiting

room, saying we needed to wait a bit longer until speaking with her Mom. It was

kind of obvious that Eve wasn't one hundred percent happy, but she didn't seem

too upset either.

"Your with me?" she asked. I saw her smile, and was relieved to see a bit of
