Matthew landed gently on the ground, the feathers were falling out of his once snow white wings. His wavy blond hair was losing its shine as his violet eyes lost their life. He closed his eyes, his mind instantly connecting with his true loves. He couldn't see what he looked like, but he sent an image of his final resting place and the words to create the locket….
"I will be with you until this locket opens"
Gilbert glanced down at the locket; it had angels wings folded over, hiding the inside from sight. He frowned; he had just woken up from a dream. He had a feeling he was supposed to find this angel, but he didn't know where to start. The Prussian put the locket around his neck and tucked it into his shirt before he left his house.
"Bonjour, Mon Ami"
Gilbert looked over just as Francis' arms wrapped his shoulders "Get off me, Franny" he said earning a fake pout from the Frenchman
"You wound me, Mon Ami" Francis said before seeing the chain "You got a new cross?" he reached forward and pulled the pendent out, but only to see the locket "What is this?"
Gilbert grabbed it and tucked it back into his shirt "I don't know" he admitted "But I remember hearing someone speaking in my dreams"
"What did they say?"
" 'I will be with you until this locket opens' "Gilbert said biting his lip gently
"We'll have to ask Arthur, he will know what it means"
"You're asking me about something?" Arthur said crossing his arms across his chest
"oui, you'd be the only person who would know"
"Give it here then"
Gilbert unhooked the locket and handed it to the brit
Arthur looked at it before jumping back, not even touching it "Has anyone else touched that?" he said instantly
"Francis did, why?"
"That's called an Angels Locket; it only appears when an angel is dying. But is meant for the angels true love, anyone who else touches it would only cause the angel more pain. Once the locket opens, it means the Angels dead" Arthur explained looking at Gilbert "only by finding the angel and returning its love can you save it"
"Where would she be?"
"only the holder of the angels locket would know" Arthur explained "It should have appeared in your dreams"
"All I remember is a large grassy plain and the words 'I will be with you until this locket opens' " Gilbert said before freezing
"Whatever you do, don't force the locket open" Arthur said sternly "That will only kill the angel"
"but I don't know where any grassy plains are" Gilbert said
"Mon Ami! We used to play at one when we were young" Francis said looking at Gilbert "The one in the old forest!"
Gilbert's eyes widened "but that's hours away!" he said "The angel might have minutes!"
"I doubt that" Arthur said "If the locket only appeared today, the angels normally take anywhere from twelve to twenty-four hours till they pass. If you leave now, you might make it"
Gilbert nodded and closed his fist around the locket before running out of the building.
Gilbert frantically ran through the trees, he needed to get to the clearing. He had heard a click, so he knew the locket had unlocked. "Just a little longer angel" he said as he saw the clearing, just as he burst out into the sun, he tripped and fell. He swore before looking up, there, laying on the bright green grass was a figure. His white wings were slowly losing their feathers, he didn't look like what the Prussian imagined an angel to look like. He jumped to his feet and ran over to the figure "Hey, Angel" he said pulling the limp figure into his lamp. He watched as the pale eyelids slowly opened to reveal lifeless violet eyes as they looked up at him. Gilbert watched the Angels mouth open, he had to lean down to hear his whisper
"My locket has opened" The Angel breathed with difficulty "Read it, and let me die in peace"
"I won't let you die, Angel!" Gilbert snapped looking down at the Angel
"Matthew"
"What?"
"My name" The Angel said weakly "My name is Matthew"
"Gilbert" The Prussian said as he watched the violet eyes open
"Please, read the locket" Matthew said letting his head fall back "I'm too far gone to be saved, you'd be doing me a favor"
Gilbert swallowed before unclipping the locket, it was clearly open. The left wing was out a little farther "There's no way I can save you?" he asked
"No, not anymore" Matthew said as he remained limp
Gilbert sighed before opening both wings "'until you spread your wings, you will have no idea how far you can fly' "he read, earning a soft smile from Matthew
"Thank you" Matthew said as his body slowly turned translucent
Gilbert felt tears fill his eyes as he watched the Angel slowly disappear, he was too late…
