Guardian Angel
Chapter 1- Protector's castle
He open his eyes and he felt fear. His lungs were hurting him and he was feeling like he couldn't breath. He tried to sat up but it was impossible. The pain was all over his body. Where was he? What was happening? He turned his head right and left trying to find something that would give him a hint of where was he. The only thing that he could distinguishes was pure white. Emily, Amanda… He forced himself to take deep breaths even though he was feeling like his lungs were going to explode. After a while he finally manage to control his breathing. The pain faded away. Slowly he got up and looked around him. At first he couldn't see anything. After awhile things start becoming clear. Walls white walls, white floor, white tiles. Victoria, the tea, the doctor… «Bitch» He whispered and started walking fast to the exit. He was almost two meters away from the door when a woman walked into the big room. His body tensed and he was ready to attack her when she smiled to him and spoke gently. «Hello Mr. Mathis» Aiden grinded his teeth and stay still ready for a fight. « Tough awakening » The smile never left her lips. «Who the hell are you?» he said. The words were full of hate and anger. That constant smile in the woman face only made him feel even more angry. «What? Let me guess. She didn't had the guts to finish the job» The woman's face changed. She stopped smiling. Her face became softer. There was sympathy now. «I get the confusion Mr. Mathis. Please follow me. I am not your enemy» The woman started walking away in silence and he followed her.
There was something strange with that woman. They were walking in a hallway. Around them there was only white or other shades of white. He kept observing the woman. She seemed to have confidence in herself. She seemed strong. She seemed calm and sure.
When they enter into another room the first thing Aiden saw was a big brown square table. After that he saw people. There were people talking to each other. And there were people staring at him. «Mr. Mathis! Welcome welcome!» Said a man approximately a decade older that him and he started walking toward him. «I guess you have a lot of…» He didn't manage to finish his sentence and he accepted Aiden's fist. Before anyone could stop him Aiden grabbed the older man and wrapped his arms around his neck. «Where the fuck am i?» He shouted toward the woman's direction. Nobody in the room moved, even the man in his grip was calm. He wasn't fighting back. Aiden looked at them in confused. Something was weirdly wrong. And then he was sure that he saw a smile on his prisoner's lips. He looked the helpless man in his deadly grip agitated. After awhile the woman started talking. «Mr. Mathis you want to leave Mr. Doclin.» «Tell me where I am» He shook with even more power Doclin's neck and kept eye contact with the woman. «This…» She said and point to the fighting scene in front of her «is pointless». Aiden shook even harder as he began walking to the exit. «I don't have time for this» he heard her saying.
Aiden felt his body hitting the floor with power. He let a cry escape his lips as he was trying to stand back up. What did just happen? One minute he was holding tight the man in his arms and the next he was flying on the air with final destination the floor. «Mr. Mathis you are going to shut up, stay right there in silence and we will explain you what happened» She didn't speak gently this time. She was angry. He stood up keeping his pain silent. He hated this woman and it was evident. It was clearly written on his face.
«Mr. Mathis this place is called protector's castle. And we are not humans. We are what people like to call us Guardian Angels. Yes you are dead. Yes you've been murdered. Yes Victoria Grayson killed you. Yes, yes, yes. This is not you. I mean obviously you are you, but you are not a human anymore, you are a soul. And the fact that you are here proves that you are a brave, honest, combative and good soul. A little disobedience apparently but we will work with that. Nobody that doesn't deserve to be here comes here. But let me try to explain more. You died. When a human dies his soul passes to the next level. The strongest of all are coming here to become warriors. Others move on to peace land, or fear land. So, what I mean by warriors. We are warriors in the name of humanity. We protect them. From here. We make sure that they are safe. We try to fight the injustice. We try to give them the best they could have. As I have already said humans call us Guardian Angels.»
