Chapter Thirteen: Angels

Michael

            Hey guys! Sorry for the wait again, but it takes me a while to get these chapters written, but I think that I might start making them a little bit shorter. That is something I need to work on really bad. So I was originally going to have this chapter be from Will’s perspective but I realized that you would need some background info. So this is going to be a relatively short chapter from Michael’s (the archangel) perspective and trying to figure out all of this stuff to do with Victoria and her past. This chapter is going to pick up right after the end of chapter Seven, after Michael sounded the bells of war across all of Heaven. That’s right war is coming, but it may take a little bit longer that you’d expect especially to get everyone united in order to defeat Gaea. Anyways I’m super excited for all of you to finally know about Vic and Will’s past. So go crazy and enjoy the chapter!

Love,

            The bells of war rang fierce throughout all of Heaven summoning every angel to their post and readying them for war. Michael stared across his domain in the sky icily and prepared to do whatever it took to take down the Pagan goddess who dared call herself the Earth Mother. He was ready for war and would put an end to the darkness that plagued this world. He would bring about paradise on Earth after this war was over, and he would fight this war with no care for how many lives were lost. That was the price of war and it would be paid because that was the price that God demanded.

            “You summoned me Michael?” The angel Joshua inquired as he appeared behind Michael.

            “You know I did, so there is no need to ask about it now is there,” Michael replied curtly.

            “As you wish,” the low-ranking angel bowed his head as Michael passed him. Joshua could tell there was something different about Michael, it was in his posture. He was stiff and radiated a form of hostility that Joshua could not place, however Joshua chose not to mention it. Michael was an Archangel after all and could end him with a snap of his fingers. “How may I help you?”

            “I have a few questions that I need answers to, and I figured that you would be the person who would know the answers I seek.” Michael turned to face Joshua and his golden eyes burned brighter than ever. They burned bright with the prospects of war.

            “I will tell all that I can. What is it you wish to know?”

            “This girl who embodies Gaea and was once the true vessel of Ariel, who is she? I’ve seen her face across all of time and history even before the Garden of Eden was created and the fall of Lucifer. I need to know what she is capable of if we are to win this fight against her.”

            “I presume you mean Victoria Carstairs?” Joshua questioned. Michael nodded in response before walking toward a newly erected throne and sitting in it. Joshua stayed a few steps behind Michael and stayed on the ground below Michael’s throne.

            “The story of Victoria is not one that I am too familiar with. The better person to ask would have been Metatron if he was still here, but I know enough.”

            “I don’t need a story I need answers,” he shouted in response.

            “I understand, but what I know of her is just myth and legend. She was first born in the second world, which was after the fall of the first world, Danu Talis, a place where beings with power ruled over humans who were subjugated to their very will. Beings that would start all of myth and legend,” Joshua began.
