"So, this certifies me to be a real Angel now?"
Immediately they leave the gates of acceptance by the Creator, Raven bombards Kancial with questions that he, himself doesn't believe he can answer.
"Yeah. It does"
"Does this mean I can play with a parrot whenever I want to?"
Kancial almost laughed.
Why is she so obsessed with this parrot thing anyway? That's the look that appeared on the face of Kancial.
You don't need to know. If you leave in hell where I stay and all I see are vultures and crows, you won't question me on my silly acts! Raven thought.
Their thoughts aligned, and it's not like both of them knew what the other person's thinking about. They just thought about it the way they did.
As they walk out of the gates, Raven looks around widely and sighed.
Kancial notices this and turns to her. Her face is bowed and she staring at the ground.
"What's wrong?" Kancial asks and Raven looks up.
"Nothing-"
"Don't tell me that. If you don't want me to read your thoughts"
Raven stares at Kancial in dismay that he can read thoughts now and still in the same thoughts, she starts panicking.
Has he been hearing my thoughts all along?
If he heard, why did he keep it?
Why did he barge into my thoughts without my consent?!
Kancial heard that one and raised a brow at her. Without her consent? What consent does she have that he must ask for before doing the things that he wants?
He chuckled and Raven narrows her eyes.
You heard me! Didn't you now?!
Kancial says nothing but stares at Raven, expecting the real reason why she is a bit moody... And unhappy.
"I'm just afraid that I might be the reason for war between the heavens and hell. If Lucifer hears about my disappearance, he can wage war against earth and the heavens. And I don't want to go back, neither do I want war"
Kancial smiles. She has a very soft heart if you ask him.
"Don't be afraid of the hell and heavens wars. The Creator always wins. No Angel has died ever since the beginning, nor have we been defeated"
Raven and Kancial are facing each other now, close and the way Kancial is staring down at her is... WHAT?!
Men, is he tall or what?
"We can't be defeated. When we handle a sword, it doesn't bend"
Raven's eyes glimmer with hope and interest in the sword part.
It doesn't bend? Physically? Or in the heavenly realms?
"We just need you to be very careful. Because they can capture you if you are careless"
Raven's heart stopped beating... Her head went down and she can't stop thinking about the future... Capture?
This is Heaven! Who will let them through the gates of heaven in the first place?!
"They don't necessarily need to be in heaven before they capture you. Know that"
Raven felt her heart and cheeks flush in pink liquid. The way he did the "Know that" is charming and flattering to the soul.
Raven stares at the arm rising and placing itself on her jaw. Kancial slowly raised the head of Raven so that she will be able to stare directly into his eyes and nowhere else.
Staring into his eyes made Raven catch a five seconds fever because he looks do determined and aggressive towards something.
But his eyes withhold brightness and love. A certain type of love that Raven can't really get.
"So what am I going to do now?" Raven asks.
"Stay in your room. If you need anything, send the Angels. Kidan, Kenny, and I are here for you"
Raven nods and placed her hand on that of Kancial.
"But what if I don't know where you are?" she asks and Kancial's frowny face immediately started polishing a small and thin smile across his lips.
"I am always here. And, with your consent... "
Raven bit her lip. Does he have to say all these in a whisper and slowly?
"May I read your thoughts? It's the only way I have to get to you"
Raven smiles also. That pretty well placed actually.
"Yes. You have my permission"
Everyone knows that Prince Kancial doesn't take no for an answer, nor does he asks for permission or people's consent!
But this is quite different. What touched his heart today?
Kancial bows to Raven, taking her right hand and kissing her index finger.
"Do you know the way to your room?" he asks and Raven nods.
"I will see you later then. If you need anything, let the maids know" Raven nods and with one more look at themselves, she smiles and flaps her wings.
The speed skyrocketed her into her room without taking a breath and as she entered her room through the little window, she flaps her wings twice but softly and landed comfortably on her feet and on the ground.
The three female Angels still in her room stares at her with smiles and with raised eyebrows.
Tryna' ask:- "So? How'd it go?"
Even if Raven has never experienced this type of sign given to her by the female Angels, she smiles and answers with a very high IQ.
"I have been accepted by the Creator"
The three Angels can't help to ask themselves how they can express their joy.
This means that Raven is now an Angel! This is outrageous!
"I can't believe it too"
They all envelope he din a warm hug and Raven asks herself why Demons are more isolated and...
Not like a family...
Meanwhile, Kancial watches as she sped to her room on air before he turned to the other side, being the left side just to see Kidan and Kenny rushing to him.
They both had an abrupt stop in front of him, causing a great wind to blow against him but Kancial doesn't move.
Whenever Kidan and Kenny are in a hurry like this, it's either to tease, or something is wrong.
"What is it?" Kancial asks.
Without taking a breath, the two Angels start to talk.
"The Demons... " Kidan tries to talk
"Raven... " Kenny says as they both gasp for air.
Without saying anything further, Kancial got what they were trying to say and stared up at the sky.
Raven needs to be protected.
