"An Angel's Worst Mistake"
Everybody thinks Angels protect people who believe but there are some that help humans stay on the right path. She was an angel and he didn't know it.
She knew the rules and she broke the most important one: She lost her sacred holiness as an angel with the boy she had swore to protect.
Ch.1
"Assignment"
Peep...peep…peep
The figure lying in the bed groaned and tried to close her eyes tighter.
Peep…peep…peep…
"Stupid thing"
She opened her eyes lazily, looked at the ceiling and then lowered her gaze to the clock which was on the counter next to her. Green eyes brightened with the sunlight of a beautiful day.
8:40 it read.
"Oh my god!! He's gonna kill me!!!"
She hurried to put her clothes on and ran towards the door. Bending the handle, she quickly opened the door and saw a tall man standing there, his bright hazel eyes staring directly at her as she took one second to blush deep crimson , the shame apparent in her eyes,
"A little late, don't you think?" he said.
Sakura lifted her gaze, fearing the punishment. It wasn't the first time she was late, but for her surprise, he was smiling kindly at her.
"I…I'm sorry Ikaru…I…"
"It's okay Sakura, I was sent to take you to the hall, you-"
"Do I have another assignment?"
Her eyes glooming gorgeously in the heavenly light, her smile full of innocence and happiness. It had been so long since her last job. She just loved her job.
"Yes. You shall wear your best tunic. He will be there"
He smiled back. She couldn't believe it. Him. He was going to give her the assignment in person.
'It must be very important for him' she thought.
"Well, let's not make him wait, dear" Ikaru said.
He turned on his heels and started to walk away. She was watching him. She couldn't believe that such a strict guy could be so kind and handsome. He was tall with tan skin and blonde hair, long enough to touch his shoulders and his eyes…that hazel intense eyes was what the girls loved the most…
'Anyways, you have to get ready!!' her inner-self shouted, breaking her thoughts about Ikaru.
An hour or so after she was walking in a corridor with Ikaru on her right. She looked beautiful. Her long pink hair danced with the fresh breeze, her skinny form was covered in a beautiful and fancy tunic. Her wings spread out gave her the most angelical look. In one word she was gorgeous.
They walked through the castle from room to room until they reached a magnificent hall. The hall was so glorious, that she didn't believe she was right there.
"Your benevolence, here she is" The young men introduced her" She is the one you had chosen"
Sakura glanced up, but all she could see was a very bright light.
"Haruno Sakura" a very deep voice called. Sakura had never heard it before, but it brought calm to her very soul. "I had chosen you especially for this mission. This is very important, this boy can change a lot of faiths, so I know you are careful enough for this, I trust you. I bless you my beloved angel. Go and show this boy what love can do." He spoke calmly.
"Yes, my lord, as you wish" Sakura said solemnly.
A bright light surrounded her and a second after, she was heading to the earth. She saw it through the darkness of the universe. She saw it, it was so beautiful, so blue, so full of life.
She was flying towards the earth at full speed when something, quick as a lightening, passed her, cutting some flesh of her shoulder and upper arm.
"what the…"
She looked around, trying to figure out what had just happened.
"I'm sorry dear, but I can't let you interfere with my glorious faith, I had been constructing it very carefully and with a lot of effort and I really don't think such a thing like you will ruin it"
She was shocked. That voice was as if she was listening to the devil himself. Then she felt a horrible pain in her body. She breathed heavily almost as if it was fire in her lungs instead of oxygen. As she hurried to the ground, she felt her wings grow weak as a sharp pain ran through them. She turned as quickly as she could just in time to see a horrible huge winged snake chewing the symbol of what she was, and most important, the only thing that was stopping her from hitting the ground: her wings.
She was bleeding heavily and stopped in mid air, her vision blurring from the pain.
"Sorry it has to be this way, dear. Your mission ends here."
"I don't think so"
She was serious. She wasn't going to fail just because a huge worm got in her way. She was going to do her job just as outstanding as always. This was nothing for her.
The snake stopped in front of her in mid air too, looking at her with its blood red eyes. She was smiling confidently. The snake swung its huge tail towards her and hit her in the arm she raised.
Hissing furiously, the snake went to bite her instead, obviously frustrated because it aimed at her face, but she blocked it. Yet the snake looked pleased because it's sharp teeth went freely through her flesh. The snake's venom felt as cold as ice as it went through her veins. She started to shake.
"Is that all you can do?" She wore a defiant glare. Suddenly laughter echoed through the sky.
"She got guts. Finish her."
The snake charged forward and swung its tail again but Sakura was quick enough to fly to the right, avoiding the tail and charged herself towards the monster with a blue ball the looked merely like the chidori. She trusted her hand towards the snake, hoping it would touch it. Apparently it did, but the snake was strong enough to keep fighting.
Her wing was bleeding hard and she was starting to move slower.
The venom had started to act. Taking advantage of it, the snake formed a ball in it's mouth like a lightening, it hit Sakura hard. She was bruised and bleeding, but she wasn't going to lose. No. Failure was not allowed for her. She flew forward, almost blinded by the pain of her wing and body, and made the blue powerful ball again, but the snake was prepared this time. It avoided it and swung its tail the hardest and quickest it could and hit Sakura in the back, sending her towards the ground at top speed. She hit the ground hard. She wasn't moving. She wasn't breathing.
"She is dead, come on Kihuki"
Her breathe was so slow and slight that not even her chest raised when she forced her lungs to take air.
She felt weak, the pain was killing her. She raised her head to look towards the sky and smiled warmly at the look of it.
'I know you are not going to leave me'
"Of course not my beloved girl, of course not"
She smiled again, a really warm and true smile. She closed her eyes and passed out
