Apocalypse End

Chapter 1: And so it begins

Chapter 1: And so it begins...

3 years have passed since my first deployment, and in that time I have gone on roughly 60 missions, all succeses. Those missions have toughen up my body and marked my arms and back with scars, and weeks without hair cuts have dropped my hair slightly above my eyebrows.

-"it's been weeks since my last mission, it's so boring here!"- i said frustrated while yawning and stretching my body. I was laying on my bed shoeless and shirtless while

looking at the room and thinking. My room (or cage) was only four white walls with a bed, a desk, a locker and a door that leads to the bathroom, no wonder i was thinking, and allot.

-"aww, c'mon, is a new mission coming soon!?"- i was'nt really looking foward to angelic or demonic blood being spilled, i just want to get out of here, out of the base. While staring at my black wings streched toward the cieling, i started to think about the things i found out about the humans. Everything started on the year 2013 in the A.D. era, where about 5 percent of the total human population rised to the heavens. 3 months later the sky and the earth opened up, demons rised of the earth and angels decended from the heavens, and some were the same humans that rised in the begining, and the celestial war began. During this time humans hid underground, and the worlds greatest minds came together to study, understand and experiment on their new enemies, they started with their dead, then their wounded, and finally when they could, with their living. On the year 2055 A.D. the humans proclaimed themselves as the third power on this war, and so the new era began there, and humans became equal to angels and demons.

Today the world is divided in three parts: angels residing in asia and europe, their capital on rome, demons on africa, australia and parts of south america, they dont have a capital (they are'nt really organized), and humans on north america, their capital being the state new washington, wich is the combination of new york, pennsylvania and new jersey.

As soon as i finished that though i got up and walked out the room toward the halls of the base. As i wandered i found myself on the lunchroom -might as well eat something- as i waited in line, i decided to view my surroundings, the room was filled with human soldiers, all eating and joking around, almost makes you feel like there is'nt a war going on. On the far end are two of the five FAs on the human side, numbers 063 and 100. The only remaning FAs with the humans are 063, 100, 011, 004 and myself, the twins 055 and 056 and 017 went rogue on the same time of my "awakening", 019 and 046 defected to the angels a year ago and the first, 001 is now the demons second in command.

As i headed out the room with an apple in hand, the base speakers came to life, someone was heading out on a mission... -"mission call, base assault, FA 086, location Aruba, standby"-

-finally, aruba huh? that's in the caribbean, demon territory.- i thought as i rushed to my room, apple still in hand. Once i was in my room i changed to my military suit, grabbed my Feather Duster, and took a bite out of the apple, excited to feel the sun on my face and the breeze on my wings, and finally, the speakers called again -"086, hangar 26, aircraft the atlantic, pilot Davenport, standby"-

-davenport? he's the one from my first mission, sweet- i threw out the apple and rushed to hangar 26, the aircraft was the same one, i can't believe it, i could'nt contain my smile, out of all the pilots he was the only one that talked to me, who viewed me more than a weapon. As i entered, there he was, i felt a sense of nostalgia as he said -"well, if it is'nt the boy, long time my friend"-

-"same goes for you old man"-

-"well are'nt you lively? first time you where in your own world, what changed?"-

-"time and expirience"-

as i finished that sentence, the speakers roared one last time -"atlantic, pilot davenport, launch on your ready"-

-"here we go boy, higher than the sun itself!"- and we started going down the runway

I had a smile for the longest time in my life at the base, and it's all thanks to this man, somehow, i felt free for the first time...
