(Zadkiel)
3 months before present
We're having a meeting as of the moment and since Michael is not here, Gabriel will lead us.
"Satan is making a move. He's giving his best to brainwash every human and giving his best to turn them into a non-believer." Gabriel explained since Michael is not yet here. I grasp my fist. How did his jealousy come this far? To overpower our Father? I cannot believe him! He used to be my brother!
"What can we do?" Uriel asked Gabriel.
"For now, guard the humans and heaven. We can't make a move yet, We'll wait for the command of Michael."
Archangels vanished one by one when the meeting was ended.
I immediately go to Dominions after the meeting and converse with them.
"I have a favor, dominions." Lumapit silang lahat saakin ng nakangiti. Dominions love it whenever I have a favor to them. "Protect her." Tumango silang lahat, making myself calm. Alam nila kung sino ang tinutukoy ko, "I have a mission with my fellow Archangels and I can't protect her as of now. I'm giving you this. Dominions. Tell me when she's in danger."
Mapapanatag na ako na gawin itong misyon dahil alam ko na may po-protekta sa kanya. Maiintindihan ko kung hindi palagi but i know how obedient they are.
"One of the reasons why He easily possesses humans is because of faith. Satan targets most of the people who don't have faith anymore or have a little faith. We need Guardian Angels for this." Jophiel says.
We can't change people's mind, God let this all happen because he created humans to have their own free-will.
"I have a blur vision last night..." Raphael said to me, made me curious. I was about to speak when Samael suddenly appear.
"Let's go." Samael raised his eyebrows at us. "We have to go, Raphael." He sighed with a worried look on his eyes, Wala na siyang nagawa nang lumipad na kami.
"I will kill them all, Surely, Lucifer is insane as well as his comrades," Samael said. "We're ought to kill." Ngumisi siya sa sinagot ko.
Mabilis ang naging paglipad namin kaya naman mabilis din kaming nakarating sa lupa. Kinuha ko agad ang espada ko nang makatapak kami sa lupa at iwinasiwas.
I saw how lower angels cry because of pain.
"Finally, a worthy opponent." Mephistopheles, a demon of fear. Samael warned me in my mind. We talk through telepathy. "Careful."
"Don't mind me, I don't fear anything."
"Zadkiel, Archangel of mercy but... Merciless. Great? Hmm... It's really nice to see an Archangel again. Tell to your Father to make his Warrior Angels atleast a worthy opponent." His not so large wings are red and his body is covered by black spirits.
"Noted." Ngumisi siya saakin.
"I've been fighting with those weak Angels and I swear! Seeing you here makes me smile!" My jaw clenched. Warrior are under the command of Archangels, we did not ordered them to fight demons who belongs to the highest hierarchy, Meanwhile, Archangels are the ones who fought the highest level of demon hierarchy but we have our own Warrior Angels, in our temple. But since the opponents are above them, we sometimes take over.
"Then it must be an opportunity for you to at least witness my existence." My sword glowed in flames.
You'll regret this.
He easily fought the Warrior Angels because he's using their fears. They fear us, celestial beings who are higher than them. Mephistopheles used that little fear.
"It must be unfortunate for you to encounter an Archangel, you can't even fight, how can you fight someone like me?" Kumunot ang noo niya, true though, he really can't fight, though using his ability is truly a great weapon.
"Archangels are really a proud angel. Unlike a Seraph and Cherub. Those are silent angels in a higher rank." He said in an offensive manner but his eyes are starting to doubt.
Demons are indeed, stupid.
Seraphim aren't made to fight demons. They're made to worship God all the time.
Demons are not aware of that fact because Seraphim are always in the place of God's throne to protect it.
His footsteps are a combination of black and red spirits. While mine is different, my spirits surround Blue, White and Violet.
"Of course, that's why your Lord, Lucifer became a demon. The proudest angel."
Tinutok ko sakanya ang espada kong nagliliyab. "Do you ever experience a fight before? How dare you to kill my comrades?"
"How will I not? I'm the Demon of Fears and they have fears so I use it. Isn't it brilliant? Plus! it's my strength, I can't live without using it, My dearest angel..."
He smirked at me. Trying to conceal his own fears.
"What if I kill you?" I said to him. Hindi ko na kayang patagalin pa na patayin siya rito. This demon deserves to die. My Wings spread widely, agreeing to my thoughts, But the sudden movement of him made me lose my focus. He touched me, in my arm.
Ngumiwi siya at naguguluhan na tinignan ako.
"Oh! I sense something different from you! Archangel Zadkiel! Something... You'll afraid of. No no no! Someone... Special to you." The only one who appears in my mind is a young lady, smiling.
"It's a strong connection... I can't even utter a word... Who is it?"
Lumapit ako sakanya at sinakal siya. "I will kill you."
"Taste your fear, Zadkiel..." Tumawa siya ng malakas habang unti-unti siyang nawawala.
I whispered her name. "Calamity..." Nanigas ang buong katawan ko ng makita ko ang kalagayan niya. Hindi ako makagalaw at mahigpit ko lang na hinahawakan ang espada ko, the violet flames of my sword are getting darker due to my negative emotion.
But I still have a mission right now.
With all speed, I sway my sword to every demon that I encounter to end this quickly, it will be dangerous for me to feel this. To every Archangel, we surely look intimidating but deep down, it's just normal. Our anger is beyond our strength. I kill them while my thoughts are wandering somewhere else, I don't know how I kill them in just a minute but I just did.
I'm torn between serving mankind and caring for her. Lumingon ako kay Samael na nakikipaglaban at napatingin siya saakin. He mouthed 'Go' at saka ako nag teleport sa kung nasaan man siya. I rarely use my teleportation because what's the use of it? If I have my massive, Lavender wings.
Nang makita ko ang kalagayan niya, I don't know but I don't care anymore. Kung may makakita man, I can do something about it.
Am I really gonna do this? I hide for too long. Is this a sin?
Binuhat ko siya, the girl she's with is looking at me like a saint. "Oh my gosh..." Lumingon ako sa kaibigan ni Calamity at tinitigan siya ng matagal. "I'll take her to the hospital," I waited for her response but she's just staring at me.
"Oh my god..."
"Oh, my g-" I stopped her using my palm. What's with her? "Oh my god! Saan mo siya dadalhin? Ano sasakyan mo? Maglalakad ka?"
"Who are you?" The boy spoke. Lumingon ako sa pinanggalingan ng boses habang karga karga si Calamity. Umiling ako at hindi na siya pinansin, hinawakan ko siya ng mabuti at dinala sa ospital. Yes, I heal but I can't do it here. Not in front of everyone.
Raphael will start a war if ever shit happened so no way that I will let them remember this.
Calamity's spirit is neutral, with the balance amount of goodness and evil. Kahit pa na lumalamang ang kabutihan, I can't tell if it will last. It will depend on her. "Rest, Young lady."
Calamity is not evil. It just happened that Lucifer is targeting every young woman and Calamity is one of them. I know his type too well... young and virgin. And not just those, he wants these kinds of young women who also have a gift. A gift from above.
My heartbeat went fast. My temper boils up. I won't let him.
Kahit na hindi naman na kailangan, dinala ko parin siya sa ospital.
Kaya kong pagalingin siya pero magtataka lang siya kung paggising niya ayos na siya. I don't want her to know about those demons targeting her, a warning is enough, I don't want to take away her memories again or to change it. She will be confused more and I don't like it.
Besides, I'm choosing the best for her own good.
"Farewell young lady. Please rest..." I said to her body, I kissed her forehead. She's unconscious. Staring at her for a minute made me calm and at the same time, safe. I feel safe whenever I know she is.
I left her with hesitation.
"Glad you make it for less than 20 minutes."
Samael smiled at me. While my face is straight to show any emotion. If Lucifer is making a move, Calamity is probably one of his prey. Hindi lang mga masasama, Luce? I know you like young flesh. Virgin young women.
I need to talk to Michael, I'm sure there's a way. Hindi pwedeng wala.
"I had to," I said. "You also like Young girls, huh?" I raised my eyebrow at him but he just smiled at me. What?
"On the 1st day of May, Gabriel." Hinilot ko ang sentido ko. This is insane. We will forever have this kind of dilemma. It's either Mankind or Evil.
"Get ready, Archangels." My jaw clenched.
Michael is not available as of the moment, and that will last until Father ordered him to come back. Currently, Michael is the one who sits on the throne. While Father is gone.
We're talking about what day will Father come back, according to Gabriel, the messenger, It will be on the first day of May. It's March and... We have to wait for 2 months. This is fine, at least it's not a Year, right?
"Can we make a move? These can't wait!" I said while my breathing is not normal anymore, it's getting intense and I hate it. "We will, Sachiel. Calm down. We just have to wait for the signal of Michael."
I didn't mind the way Raphael calls me, I'm serious and mad. Just mad.
"Tell it to me now, I'll tell him now!" Gabriel stares at me, frustrated. I'm more frustrated! "Calm down, trust us on this, alright? We won't let Satan near your girl just calm down and don't do anything wrong. We just have to wait, Michael will set a plan for this."
I take a deep breath and sighed. Then I must do something.
"Your attachment is a nuisance, Sachiel." Kumunot ang noo ko. Hindi ko naramdaman ang biglang pagdating ni Azrael. "Where were you?" I ask him.
"Earth? You're busy eh?"
"Whatever for you two, Heaven is no longer your favorite place, huh?" Nagkatinginan kami ni Azrael sa sinabi ni Raphael. "What do you mean?" I raised my eyebrows.
"Farewell, Short-tempered Sachiel." I was about to react but he vanished so I didn't have a chance. "Did he just say I'm Short-tempered?" I asked Azrael.
"I was about to agree." Azrael.
We both vanished after he said that. Surprisingly, sabay kaming nakatapak sa mundo. "I thought you're going to your favorite spot?" Azrael asked me. "I thought you are?" I said back.
We're both confused so I just use my wings para lumayo sakanya. Did he have a mission, too?
I use my wings to go to the Hospital where I sent her, I think she's still there. While I was walking through her door, I can see how evil won against evil people. The bad spirits surround their body and soul but my light was enough for them to leave the human's body temporarily. Light is their weakness. Especially to me because I'm an Archangel and have the name Angel of mercy.
My instinct says something bad will happen so I immediately run to her door. I open her door and... There's nothing to be scared about.
She's still unconscious and weak. Her friends are still here and the girl is talking to someone over the phone.
Her friends stopped a bit after they saw me.
"Can you leave?" Hindi pa man sila tapos sa state of shock, the boy drag the young girl out.
"You can't fool me, Leviathan." Sinakal ko siya palabas ng katawan ni Calamity, "What're you doing here? Demon of Envy? Feeling envious?" He laughed.
"Yes! I want to taste her soul and differentiate it from others. Lord told me that she's different!" I strangled his neck to ashes. You won't say that in front of me.
These demons are immortal. They're immortal because they're once an angel.
Lumingon ako kay Calamity at tinitigan siya. She opened her eyes but close it after because of weakness. That demon is a big thing, after all.
I put the Flowers, Lavenders, specifically in her table. It will help her to breathe well. Slowly, I touched her face. "Not now, baby." I sighed.
Now that Satan is making a move, I must make a move. Something he will be surprised of. He's making me mad and I don't like it when I'm mad.
But something is holding me back...
I closed the door.
"Uhmm, W-who are you?" I was about to leave but I suddenly remember them. I'm using this "human form" to disguise myself as a human. What I meant by disguise, wingless, white shirt, military pants, and military boots.
"Call me Zadkiel, tell her to rest and eat well. Okay?" Nanginginig na tumango ang isang babae habang nakatitig lamang ang isang lalaki. "What-" I face that arrogant boy, "Can you just do what I just said? Do it now. She's awake."
"May kaibigan pala siyang sundalo? My God! Nakakatakot pero ang gwapo!"
"What a dick."
Napailing nalang ako sa mga narinig ko.
Using my wings, I fly back to heaven.
"Raziel... Can you help me?" This is the first time that I will say this to him, I hope he will say yes to this.
His smile makes me furious, it's annoying. "Can you quit smiling like that?"
If I have the shortest temper, then he gotta be the most annoying Archangel.
"You're a one Hot-tempered Angel! You're the one who's asking a favor." He smiled again. "Your smile is really annoying."
"Fine! What is it Angel of Mercy? and please forgive me." He grinned after.
I actually want to kick him out of heaven, he is really provoking. But I need him! He's the only Angel who's not busy as of the moment, and why he's not busy again?
"Gabriel gave me another mission, this is something that relates to Lucifer. I'll be gone for awhile, can you protect her instead while I'm away?" Oh, Father! This isn't supposed to happen. I promise I'll be her protector once I'm done with my plan. I can't be with her for now.
"Do something that will make me say yes."
Raziel is not hard to please. He's making it hard because he knows I'm desperate.
"Please...?" He smirked.
"This is recorded! Alright fine, I'll do it. Brother." I sighed after that. At first, it's the dominions that I think first but they're busy and it's not their duty to protect someone even if it's their chief's order.
Not to mention the higher evils that might attack her.
"I'll be gone, I don't know yet when I'll be back. You know what to do, right?"
"What's up with Archangels... Azrael asked me about protecting someone, too... and Raphael." I shrugged and left.
All good then, I'm good to go.
