This was originally supposed to be a one-shot, but it started to get too long, so I split it up into three chapters. This is the first one. Not your regular cliche because you guys know me. I'm such a twister. I can go from romance to humor to writing dark twisted stuff to happy to tragedy. You guys know me. Anyways, I know they are grammar mistakes and stuff, but my beta-reader can't beta for me anymore because she's become really busy and I understood and was okay with it. So, I really need a new beta-reader, but until then, I'm on my own.
Enjoy! :)
Good and Pleasure.
Evil and Pain.
They might be Angels and They might be Demons, but They are One in the Same
Once, humans did not exist. Instead, it was two species who lived in separate lands. Depsite their differences, they leaved in peace, staying in their own lands and never bothering the other.
Angels and Demons were not allowed to have any contact. They were also forbidden to fall in love with each other, a sin among Angels and Demons.
This rule had come in to tact after an Angel and Demon had fallen in love with each other years ago, but because of this, the two lands had come to war, killing hundreds of angels and demons.
After war, the Angel and Demon were both beheaded, but their love was still present.
From that moment on, a barrier was put between the Angels and Demons to keep this tragedy from repeating itself again.
...
A beautiful, young woman walked through the flower fields full of different types of roses, sometimes stopping to look at a rose and admire the beauty that radiated from it. Each and everyone had something special about it, even if it was wilted. She smiled to herself, something she rarely did to other angels or even animals, but being by herself was satisfying enough.
She ran a hand through the strands of her long, silky hair, casting a look at the shadow behind the tree in front of her. A slight smirk cast on her lips as she called," Suzaku, I have no idea why you're behind that tree, but please show yourself to me if you wish to see me."
The tall figure with brown hair and emerald eyes came out from behind the tree, sighing in defeat." How long have you known I was stading there?"
"Since I found this ring you hold so dearly," she answered in slight amusement, holding up the object between her fingers.
A light blush spread across the male Angel's face as he walked forward to fetch the ring his friend held in her hand." That fell out my pocket, C.C.," he said as he took the ring from her.
"I don't understand why you just don't wear it on your finger. That way, you won't lose it," she told him.
Suzaku's face darkened a bit as he put the ring back in it's place." You know why I don't wear it. C.C. Ever since Euphie was sent to the Demon World, I don't know if I even have the rights to wear it, so all I can do is keep it with me."
C.C. cast him a small smile, as Suzaku was one of the people that deserved her smile, even more than her father sometimes." Well, what brings you here today? You must need something if you were hiding behind the tree," she stated, looking at the sheepish look on his face.
"You're father wanted me to watch you while you were here. The flower field is too close to the demon world, though, I can't say I don't agree with him," Suzaku explained, running a hand through C.C.'s green locks.
"Huh, I'm nineteen. He knows full well that I can take care of myself," the young woman replied." I don't need his or your protection."
"As strict as your father is, he loves you and he means well, C.C. "
"Yes, I know."
Suzaku stopped brushing his fingers through her hair and laughed a bit." I take it that tone means you want me to leave, don't you?" he said.
"You know me so well, Suzaku. You need a reward," the female Angel smirked, tugging slightly on the necklace around her neck." Of course, that will just have to wait until you are out of my sight."
"What do you want me to tell your father? He won't be happy that I neglected my duty because you asked me to."
The male Angel was not on very good terms with his friend's father, but he trusted him to protect her, and coming back home empty handed would not make their already rocky relationship any better. He'd rather not have to get punished because he let C.C. wander off by herself, even at an adult age.
"You can go somewhere else, and then meet me in front of Angelic Hall when you see my dove in the sky," C.C. explained.
The emerald eyed male sighed, giving the female Angel a smile." Fine, but you will be there when I arrive, promise?"
C.C. raised an eyebrow, crossing her arms under her chest." What do I-" she started, but was cut off by Suzaku.
"Promise?"
"Okay, okay, I promise," C.C. chuckled lighlty, still not being able to understand how Suzaku could see right through her. I guess that's what friends are for, neh, she thought.
Big, beautiful white wings appeared on Suzaku's back as he shot C.C. one more smile." Take care, C.C." with that, the angel flew off, leaving the young woman behind.
"Angel wings... They're quite beautiful unlike the ugly wings us Demons have to use," a deep male voice said in a monotone voice.
The angel froze, not turning around to look at the figure behind her. Us Demons? Damn you, Suzaku.
" Of course, I've heard that they are all different. I'm curious to what yours look like. Maybe they're just as beautiful. Or," he smirked, walking forward," Maybe your wings are just as beautiful as you."
C.C. decided to turn around, glaring at the Demon before her. Her glare soften, though, when she got a good look at the Demon before her. He was dressed in an all black outfit and his eyes were a pretty amethyst. His handsome features complimented his eyes, but that smirk did not, which left C.C. cautious of him... A Demon.
"What are you doing here?" she asked firmly, looking at him in the eyes." You are a demon. You know you shouldn't be here."
"But, I was curious to what the angel world looked like since my mother use to be an angel herself because she commited what is considered a sin in the Angel World," he mused, the smirk on his face still visible as he took a step closer towards the woman.
"There are only three things that are considered a sin in the Angel World," C.C. started to explain." Killing, tresspassing into the demon world, and falling in love with a demon. That is, unless you get caught or found out doing any one of these. Most of us Angels are not lucky in keeping things a secret."
The Demon gave a slight darkened chuckle." Really? My mother did far worst than that, though. She killed, trespassed, and fell in love with one. Therefore, she was exiled to the demon world and became one of us. We have different definitions of sin, though."
"I don't care about what demons consider sin. Leave before I call the council, demon," C.C. ground out through her teeth.
"Now, now, I might be a Demon, but I do have a name. Nice to meet you, Angel," he greeted, putting out a hand for her to shake." I am Lelouch vi Britannia, Prince of the Demon World. Pleased to make you're accquaintance."
C.C. ignored the hand he put out in front of her and raised an eyebrow." Prince of the Demon World?" she repeated." Do you know how hard it is for me to believe that. In fact, I didn't even know the demon world had a royal family..."
"Well," Lelouch started," Now you know. It's normal for someone that's not from the demon world to not know that. Only any Angels that were exiled there would know that, but unfortunately, they become Demons themselves."
"Why are you even here? Demons are not aloud here," C.C. fixed her eyes on his face, clicking her tongue." I suggest you go back to where you came from before I deal with it."
The smirk on his face faded as he leaned against a tree." No. I think I'll be staying here for a bit. Befriending Angels are quite nice."
"So, then, Mr. Prince over here likes Angel women? How nice," she smirked, crossing her arms over her chest." That's a story to tell one day."
"Tch, as if. I would never fall in love with an angel, even if my life depended on it," Lelouch said, running a hand through his raven hair." And I never said I liked Angels, they just amuse me quite a bit."
"Us Angels are amusing, neh? That's a new one," C.C. replied in amusement." Then, I guess you Demons are just as amusing. I mean, who enjoys watching others in pain?"
"You've never seen it. Watching people in pain is not of any pure enjoyment. My fathers finds enjoyment in watching others suffer, but my mother does not, as my mother was once an angel."
The Angel tilted her head, watching the demon in slight curiosity. She had never actually met a demon, so she wouldn't know what they were like, but this demon was different from what she was taught.
As she was taught, Demons were vicious, anti-social, and monsters who didn't care about others, even their own kind. So, since a young age, she always made sure she never went near the barrier that separated both worlds. Now taht she had a Demon right in front of her, it didn't seen as if he was what she thought of them to be. He would've have already caused a ruckus by now, wouldn't he?
Wait, no going soft on him. Demons are the enemy, the green haired angel thought, playing with a strand of her hair." Well, I don't care if your mother does not enjoy pain, but most Demons do, so go back to where you belong," she told him, narrowing her golden eyes.
"You've told me that three times already, but I guess I should be taking my leave now," he mumbled, no longer leaning on the tree like he previously had been doing. He cast the Angel a glance, saying," You might want to look away, Angel."
The green haired Angel rose an eyebrow in confusion." Why do I need to-"
"My wings are something you cannot see. So please, look away and you will know that I am far enough for you to look again when I drop an object directly in your hands," Lelouch explained to C.C., hoping she would listen to him.
C.C. sighed, turning her back to him. She knew how dangerous it was to turn her back on a Demon, but she had a feeling he was of no harm." Le... Lelouch," she grumbled," I have a name, you know. It's C.C."
Lelouch's black wings appeared on his back, a small smirk also on his face." C.C.? That's an interesting name." that was the last thing he said before he flew off and an object dropped in her bare hands.
A rose? Who knew Demons liked roses, she thought in clear amusement.
Was that amusing enough for you guys? I hope so. I can't talk much right now, so yeah.
