Darkness Rises

Chapter 1

    3 years ago
    Alex and Dameon were hiding in his room, all they could hear was their mom and dad fighting downstairs, like always it was about Alex and the confusion around her and her abilities, being the daughter of a reaper and an angel who is a royal brought up a lot of problems. Most of the people who knew about her only found out by chance, her brother somehow managed to be a purebred reaper while she was a half breed. Her mother’s side of the family had yet to find out about Alex but her father's side knew about her, they were scared of her because she was so unknown in both of the worlds.

    While she listened to her mother explain to her father that everything was fine and that id learn to control my abilities. That’s when there was a knock on the door and everyone fell silent, it was odd because I sensed other angels but that couldn’t be right because my mother’s family didn’t know where we lived and they would never go to the human world from what I've heard, I looked over at my brother and he seemed on edge.

     I was confused and opened his door and peaked at the front door, when I did I saw some well-dressed women and men, my father looked over and saw me looking out and he shook his head no but like always I didn’t listen and kept watching as my mother was talking to them, soon my brother came up behind me and watched as well, one of the men saw us and asked my mother.

     “Are those kids yours Elizabeth?”
   
    my mother turned to us and looked panicked but motioned us to come over to her. My brother and I looked at one another and hesitantly walked over to them once we got closer my brother told me through our mind link that they all were angels but one was badly hurt, once I got beside my mother, I saw the hurt angel and tilted my head at her curiously and asked.

    “What happened to her, she is on the verge of death and that isn't normal for an angel.”
   
The man who had asked my mother if Dameon and I were her kids looked at me then glared at my mother when the realization hit him that I was the only reaper angel hybrid that is alive at this moment, most people only get one trait from one parent like Dameon, for instance, got the reaper not angel, but for some reason.

     I ended up getting both traits and no one knew why we had gone down into the only layers of hell I can withstand being a hybrid and asked everyone we could even the current death, no one knew anything about previous angel reaper hybrids alive. As they watched the male angel who looked visibly upset her father came up behind her and gently laid his hand on her shoulder.

    Almost as if to say that it's okay and to let them see what I could do.
I still looked up at my mother for permission and she nodded slightly. my bother tensed beside me because he knew what I was going to do. I looked up at the male angel and told him

    “I can help her but you have to bring her in and let me assess the damage done.”

     He looked hesitant and glanced at his the other by his side, they came for my mother's help, not mine but I knew my mother couldn't heal from someone at death's door like I could. one of the many questions surrounding me because I could also end them as soon as I heal them.

    Many elders from my father's family have studied me when I heal someone and still have yet to figure out how I'm able to do it as smoothly as I can without it hurting me like it does the others. As the angels brought the woman in, I quickly scanned over her, she had a skull fracture, brain bleed, multiple broken bones, and her wings needed to be set and healed due to burns on them.

    I glanced at the other angels and scanned them as well one of the men had a couple broken ribs as well I looked up at my mother and sighed, the main angel watched me as I held one of my hands over the woman’s broken leg and sighed

    “her leg and arm need set along with the wings, I cannot heal the wings but I can everything else I'm going to start with her head and work my way down.”

     I walked over to her head and sighed healing her skull fracture as the other angels watched in shock and confusion the main male whose name, I figured out was Michaël, set her arm, leg and had help setting her wings. I healed her leg and arm, but her wings were a different story because I had never been able to fully heal wings even if they had been set by someone else. As I healed them as much as they could but I knew that her wings would never work properly again.

     As I told the other angels this they just sighed and nodded they knew what happened when an angel broke her or his wings. After a while, I went to the kitchen and one of the younger angels followed me to help me grab drinks. I sighed softly and got into the fridge and grabbed out a few drinks I handed him some of them to carry, he then turned to me and made the comment....

“You're lucky... You don’t have to deal with the responsibilities of being an angel and you’re a royal on top of that...”

I looked at him curiously and asked. “what do you mean by I'm a royal?” after she said that his eyes got wide and his hand shot up to his mouth realizing what he said.
