CH1:Follow Thy orders Faithfully

The light from the morning sun shined brightly into the meadow. Many kinds of flowers were in full bloom, creating a beautifully colorful scene. In the middle if this meadow was a woman, her magnificent wings out and fluttering gently behind her. In her hands was a small flute, the morning sunshine reflecting off the silver instrument.

The woman then slowly raised the instrument to her pale pink lips and began to play. The unearthly magical music filled the air; the soft alluring sound brought forth many different kinds of animals. They gathered around the form of the angel and listened to her music.

Once the song was done, she gently brought her flute down and put it away in its small black case.

There was a gush of wind to her right, before a familiar male voice spoke.

"Why must I always find you lounging about in the middle realm when there is work to be done?"

"Why must you always ask questions that you know the answer to?" She said turning her head to look at him.

The man chuckled before holding his hand out to her in a gentlemanly gesture.

She put her pale dainty hand in his bigger one and he helped her stand.

He pressed his lips to her hand, as she stared at him.

His perfectly sculpted face was the canvas for his godlike features, full, tempting lips, and stunning, hazel eyes.

He pulled back staring into her eyes trying to relay all his emotions into one look. She couldn't decipher all of them, but the most prominent was… worry.

"What seems to have brought you to me Michael?"

"Our father wishes to speak with you…"He said slowly.

She raised an eyebrow. "Oh?"

"Yes, he wishes to speak to you and you alone…" He trailed off.

She nodded. Now she understood what had him worrisome. Father was singling her out. Although singling her out wasn't a new thing not informing Michael himself of why, was. Michael was his right handed man and he usually told Michael everything.

"Curious isn't it...be that as it may we mustn't keep father waiting." She spoke softly with a smile unbothered smile.

Michael stared at her a moment longer before nodding his head. His golden wings sprouted before he took to the sky.

She watched him disappear then gave a gentle smile to the wild life that had gathered and said in a soft, musical voice "It was a pleasure to play for you all, but I must be going. It seems our father wishes to see me."

Her golden wings spread as she too took to the sky.

~Saint and Sinner~

"I see, very well." She said from her kneeling position before standing with a bow before leaving the great father's room.

Her father's request was very clear... there wasn't a inch of room for failure either. So what was an angel to do? The only thing she could do. Follow the order faithfully and without question. she would need to be strong and steadfast, going on this journey would surly test her tenacity in all things...where she was going was a dangerous and tainted place.

But first goodbyes were in order, after all she would be away for a while, she would miss comrades.

She walked into the reaper's administration's office only to stop when all eyes turned to look at her.

Her eyes grazed over them before she continued to walk towards the desk.

There was a young red haired reaper leaning against the desk and an equally young raven haired reaper standing up straight.

"My lady-" both men sitting behind them said before standing and bowing.

She nodded to them before looking at the new requites.

"My my, what dashing new requites you have." She said with a smile. "What are your names?"

The red hair male was quick to speak. "My name is Grell. Grell Sutcliff."

She walked over to him, gazing into his eyes. She nodded after a moment seemingly liking what she saw. She ran her fingers through his hair and his nose began to bleed.

She pulled his face closer to hers, so close their lips were practically touching.

"I do so love the color red. Your flaming red hair and porcelain skin… simply beautiful."

Grell's face went as red as his hair, his nose bleed became worse before he ultimately fainted from blood lose.

She snickered and shook her head in amusement before looking at the other young reaper. "What do they call you?"

"My name is William T. Spears." He said stiffly his voice void of emotion.

Curious she stood and walked over to him. She stared into his dark eyes for a moment before frowning.

"Huh…" She said thoughtfully as she continued to gaze at the young reaper.

William frowned the angel was really making him uncomfortable. He had heard many things about her but mostly about her ways of judgement. She found there was something she didn't like she destroyed it without a second thought wiping any and all traces of it off the universe…or at least that was what he had herd. The longer her eyes bore into his the more fear seemed to leak from his pores…she wanted to ask her so badly what she had thought of him…why she seemed so concentrated on him…why her eyes seemed to pierce his very soul…or at least what was left of it anyway but William was scared and ended up not saying anything.

"What is it my lady?" One of the men asked now too looking at William in curiosity. The elders were now wondering if they should be allowing the young reaper to do the exam. Did she see something in him that wasn't right or ready?

"I was just looking for-" She snapped her fingers as a thought came to her. Without warning she placed her head on his chest.

After a moment she pulled back and this time nodding her satisfaction.

She looked up at the young reaper. Before moving her hands to his cheek and pullig them into a smile. you have such a nice smile…you should show it more often kay?

"y-yes my lady…" Williams said to her but she had already walked away from him not noticing the faint blush on his stoic face.

"These two shall be perfect partners for the exam I am certain, now as for why I am here, have either of you heard from Adrian?"

"No my lady."

She pouted, but nodded understandingly. "I see, well it seems I haven't a choice. I shall be taking my leave then."

She walked over Grell's still unconscious body and threw a smile over her shoulder at William.

"Good luck on your exams, I hope to see both of you in the near future when you are both full-fledged reapers."

With that she disappeared from the reaper facility…

That was the last time anyone had seen the beautiful angel.
