"Raven?"
Raven's eyes flutters open. Her red hair is spread across her face and arms. Her white face is now all pink, seeing the face of Kancial who is seated beside her.
"Hmm?" Raven hummed out her reply as she struggled to sit upright, on the soft pillow laid beneath her head.
"You slept deeply and for a few hours. You okay?"
Raven smiles a little as she nods. "I am"
Kancial says nothing but just stare at her. There is this formal tension between him and Raven.
"I'm sorry to have you wake up, but I need to talk to you"
Raven's eyes widen. His voice tune is not good. Something is wrong.
"What is it? The Creator has changed his mind about me?"
Kancial stares at her with wide eyes. Raven's heart skips the moment she see those eyes, but her fear breaks down when Kancial opens his mouth and laughter passes through it.
Raven stares at him as he laughs confused.
What is it with her that amuses him so?
"What is so funny?" Raven asks pouting.
She is so cute when she pouts!
"Nothing... Nothing is funny. Don't mind me" The laughter dies down and Kancial says those words to her and she rolls her eyes.
Why does she have to be such an amuser?
"Nothing is funny. Like seriously, I just...*clears throat* The Creator never changes his mind when it comes to accepting someone back to him. You're his daughter now... And that's permanent"
Raven lets out a sigh of relief when she hears this. Excitement grew to the brim of her stomach, as her expectations of having to hear good news also grows in her.
"Your Father wishes that you went home, Raven"
That word. Home...
She never thought about Hell the moment she entered Heaven. She never even thought they'd remember her there.
And her Father? Xuvicer?!!!
Smoke... Invisible Smoke filled the room as it rushed out of the nostrils and ears of Raven.
Her FATHER?!!!
Why is he making a fool out of himself by coming...
Or wait...
Asking her to come back?!
Is he joking?!
And what does the Creator has to say about this? What is he saying... Personally, about this?! What?!
Raven chuckles lightly. Her forever wicked chuckle, still remains the same... Even in Heaven.
"Why does he wants me back? He never had time for me. I always made sure I had time for him... To go to him, even at his stupid pleasure work. Yet, he never knew he had a hundred and something years old daughter. Now, that I have come to a better place, he wants me back? Can he get me... Back?"
"Does the Creator know anything about this?"
"He knows everything"
"Is he ordering you to take me back?"
"He... Hasn't said anything about it, yet"
Raven kept quiet.
Anger is seriously not an emotion in Heaven, but she doesn't... Care!!!
She is mad right now!
How will some stupid Demon that is a pain in her ass and a disgrace to her life, that is also called her Father, ask her to go back to some Pleasure state, when he knows that he doesn't have time for her? What type of nonsense is that?!
But then, she keeps her thoughts cool and turns to Kancial slowly.
"But do you think, I should go back?"
Kancial eyes widen.
Did she just ask him that? Does she wants to go back?
"I don't want you to. But if you w-"
"I don't want to. I'm fine here"
Kancial keeps quiet at her response but doesn't look at her, nor at anywhere in particular.
"The Heaven's Armies are matching to war with Hell in due time. You have to be here, in the Castle so that they won't reach you"
Raven gasps lightly.
"Bu-But they will release the Witches and the witches are-"
"No one knows better than the Creator, right?"
Raven nods like an innocent little girl.
"So I believe no one can defeat their Creator"
Raven nods with a little smile breaking upon her face.
"Get some rest. When it is time, I will come for you"
"Wait!"
Kancial stops in his tracks, his blood is boiling due to the touch of Raven and seeing her holding fastly but loosely to his wrist.
"What if they come from an opening that you don't know about?"
Kancial stares at the teary eyes of Raven and immediately feel a pang of pity hit him because of her.
"I-I am scared, Kancial" she whispers.
Kancial fixed his gaze on the pink lips of Raven as she spoke. Her voice is shaky... And it's because of fear... He knows that one for sure.
Kancial doesn't know what to say. It's been a pretty long time he heard Angels say their scared.
Kancial doesn't reply Raven but casts the sleeping spell on her from within. His mouth didn't move, nor did his eyes or throat.
He just fix his gaze on Raven and the cute female Angel closes her eyes in peace and silence...
She then fell asleep.
Kancial stares at her for a very long time before withdrawing his hand from her hold and her hand fell on the comfy bed in which she is laid on.
"Don't be" he whispers softly.
Slowly, he adjusts the hand of hers that fell on the bed, and quickly turned away to walk out.
But he stops, at the hearing of a voice.
A voice... Very Familiar.
The witches roamed round the surface of the earth in the night as their invisibility caused much more Chaos.
They entered people and the people will scream their way to death, because the Witches caused them pain one way or the other.
"Honey! I'm home"
The man in a black suit and with a black briefcase enters the beautiful room of him and his wife, but he can't find her.
"Honey? Are you here?"
No one answers and his eyebrows begins to knit in confusion and he begins to question himself out loud, whether or not did his wife tell him she'd be going out with their little daughter.
"Did she say she'd go shopping, today?"
But it's already late. Or did she go to dinner with Melissa?
No answer came into the head of the Man in suit.
But as he turns to go back to the car and drive to their favorite restaurant that he thinks his wife and daughter might be in, he hears a soft and childish voice call unto him.
"Hi Dad. How was your day?"
The man turns to see the little girl who is looking totally fine and not harmful.
"Oh hey, Melissa. What about your mum?"
"What about her?"
The man immediately perceives the dark message and aura this girl is sending. Something's not right.
"She went shopping since noon in Texas. She'll be back any moment from now"
The man nods in relief and release a breath of relief. But... Something's still troubling him.
But why Texas? That's about 10 to 15 miles away. Did she use the flight?
"Here you go. Daddy got you something"
The little girl's father stretches his hand to Melissa with a chocolate bar in it.
Hoping the bar will send her to sleep so that he got look for his wife.
Melissa eyes the chocolate and then also stretch her hand and held unto the hand of her Father, instead of taking the chocolate.
The Father stares at his daughter and just as he opens his mouth to talk...
"I don't like chocolate"
The Father narrows his eyes at his daughter and before you know it.
"Aaaaaaaah!!!"
