  I come out of my room to see Roxanne standing in front of my door smirking.

"Hello there, you're usually not in front of my door," I said uninterested.

"I know what you did last night." She grins even bigger.

"Oh that's nice, you know I had a sleepover?" I'm playing stupid.

"No, you snuck out in the middle of a meeting."

"And how would you know that if I didn't graze even an inch near your room. My room is the nearest to the courtroom." 

   She uncrossed her arms and starts getting a defensive look. 

"Are you suggesting something?" She looks furious.

"I'm not suggesting, just pointing out the obvious. Besides you're accusing me of something first. It's only right to debunk the statement." 

  Then all of a sudden I get smacked across the face and knocked to the ground. The handprint turns golden. I touch my face where she smacked me. 

"I hope you know God doesn't give a shiz about you or your terrible past life! This is why everyone hates you in Heaven. You should've just killed yourself when you had an opportunity. Your husband did the right thing and got rid of you because you were literally the scum of the earth. Just like you're weak and helpless now you'll always be weak and helpless."

   All I can really do is sit there and take the words she's spitting at me. I start tearing up because it feels like everything she's saying right now feels so true. Why am I here right now if they wanted me on earth? Even my own husband didn't want me around? I must've been so terrible. Why does everyone hate me? Then I hear a punch being thrown. 

"Will you just shut the freak up!" I hear Flynt in the background. "No one wants to hear your nails on a chalkboard this early in the morning."

   I feel someone pick me up and I look into Annah's face she's angry right now. I hug her and look at Flynt beating her down with words. There are so many tears rolling down my face. Roxanne starts yelling at Flynt back. 

   Someone starts dragging Roxanne away. Now she's yelling at them. I wipe away my tears. I walk into God's court and get down on my knees while my friends go back to their rooms. 

"Why are you not wearing your Prayer beads? I hand made those beads for you sweetheart."

"It was….irritating my neck a little. I thought I would take it off for tonight." I say hesitantly.

"What are you here to ask my child?"

"If I'll be apart of the harem now?"

"After you started with Roxanne in the hallway. You shouldn't be bothering my beautiful ladies." 

"I'm sorry, I won't do it again"

"And you walked out without makeup to cover up that ugly crying face."

"Sorry I forgot…"

"Now leave and don't come back to me when this is all done."

   I get up sadly then I walk in the long hallway to clear my mind of this terrible day. Then I come across a strange room I've never seen before. With a mysterious sigil and Angel of Death on it. All the years I've been here I never seen this door. I grab onto the door handle and open the room. It's Dark and cold. For some reason, the moon is shining into the room from the open ceiling. I see this huge shrine of Swords, Scythes, and other weapons. There's also a light shining down on a crown with a sharp-pointed black crow made out of black sharpened gemstones. Above the crown is a family. 
     A male angel with lots of scratches on his body bleeding gold. He had 6 wings coming from his back and he had golden eyes and eyes. A female demon had white hair and red eyes. She had hands around a little boy with black outer pupils and piercing white eyes. The angel and demon look at each other lovingly and the son is smiling up at them both. They're all wearing crowns and the female is wearing the crown that is right below the picture. The boy's crown is right next to the other crown. That's just made of black wire. The angel's crown is gone.
    All around the room is covered with pictures of the boy growing up. I look in the corner and there's a journal labeled 'Samuel The Angel of Death'. Then right on top of it is a tiny journal labeled 'Lilith the First Eve'.  They both have Sigils and the above it is their sigils combined together. I've seen this combined sigil in my dream. There's a pedestal with the man's face the above it is a huge painting of a young man that looked exactly as the little boy. But with glowing wings, halos, horns and tail.
    I walk out of the room slowly and shut the door quietly….I feel like there was a reason it was out of everyone's sight. I turn around and i see my friends shocked.
