Cyberpunk intrigue and military action come together in this dystopian thriller! A theocracy must be toppled... 

New Megiddo has been born out of the ashes of America, an America that has sacrificed liberty for security. Ravaged by environmental disaster and shuttered off from the rest of the world by border fortress walls, and the strict dogma of spiritual leader, The Reverend Wilhelm Wainwright, the people take small comfort from the sermons the Reverend delivers straight to the people's minds via the [Virtue-Net]. However, the President John W. Schrubb Administration has been losing its grip on power. Murmurs and rumors of a resistance group of Apostates emanate from "Database" dens in the slums, financed by a mysterious source, are said to be scheming to free the people. Will the Apostates strike in time before the Born Again Gathering ushers in a state-induced Armageddon?

Nichael is an angel. And that's all you really need to know about him- he follows the rules. He loves Michael, his leader. He fights demons when he is called on, and otherwise tills the earth of Heaven. But then he is sent to Hell to spy on Michael's behalf, and there he meets a mysterious demon who seems intent to make him remember something he knows he shouldn't. He also gets pulled under the metaphorical wing of the egomaniacal Stacy Baruth, a possible criminal and certain mastermind, who guides Nichael to demons who don't fear angels- they worship them. Caught between who he is expected to be and who he used to be, Nichael is confused, trusted with too much power, and overall, a threat to his loved ones. As cults grow, friends grow distant, and he falls in love, nothing is clearer than one simple fact: Nichael is an angel. Nothing more, nothing less. -∆- Now featuring character art by me for most of the main cast! more coming, too! FANTASTIC cover done by @summergirl21! -∆- About identity, names, gender, family, and belief. What a mixed bag of fun! Technically a sequel, stands alone. I'd say the suggested age is 14+ (why does wattpad only have mature/not mature?!?). There is some violence and language as the story goes along, as well as sexual references. Also, way more light hearted than the description suggests! There is humor. (and, because this is the world's longest bio, no, Radicle is not a hip misspelling of Radical.... google it guys!)

*COMPLETE* Description: Andy, Jinxx, Ashley, CC and Jake were disfavored angels in Heaven for thousands of years. They didn't have the gentle grace and calm demenor that angels do; they were defiant, ruthless, and far to eager for battle. After the Angels had a scuffle with the fire Lords, whose realm was not as calm as Heaven, Andy and the other four damanded that they fight and "show those candle sticks an angel's true power!" They were promptly cast down to earth. The Elder's conferred with the Lord, and all came to the agreement that they no longer had the purity of heart to belong in Heaven any longer. Stripping them of their powers and practical immortality, the Lord cast them out the gates and struck them to earth, where they could see the horrors of war they so desired. Their wings turned black as they fell and became earth bound, unable to fly again. They crashed in an open field, far outside the city, creating large craters from the impact of speed. As they lay, unconscious and bleeding, the last bit of God-like resistance and healing genes faded from them, leaving them good as human, except for the large black wings that they could bring out at will. You live far off in the country, and are a lover of nature and quiet. This warm spring morning, your usual walk in the fields behind your house takes you to the discovery you thought quite impossible to make. After all, who expects to find Fallen Angels in their backyard? A/N: This story is inspired by the lyrics "we are the in between, cast down as sons of war; struck to the earth like lightening". Guy's I'm making the boys keep their wings because I want to, but they can make their wings come out at will to unstead of just having to have them out all time. WARNING: cursing. Kissing? Maybe some violence? Nothing to horrible, I think.

I have forgotten what it feels like to be free. To have a voice. I can't say anything, or else they might catch me. My parents would never forgive me. I'll be arrested. Maybe even killed. Probably killed. We didn't open our eyes in time to see the train come barreling down the tracks. It crushed our freedom, burned our self-worth, and now we have to pay the price. All because we didn't see it coming. The American Constitution doesn't apply to us. All of the activists were silenced. And now it's all coming back to bite us. We'll just have to bite back harder. ( *This story is Dystopian, not Action. Wattpad doesn't have that Genre as an option. Thanks, Wattpad.* )
