Prologue
Another crack echoed through the air, echoing in the room, sending her down to the floor again, her face stuck, it felt like a bull whip had been cracked across her face, the tingling sensation in her face, the reddening and the heat causing her face to swell only a little, she looked up at the larger man, his muscular frame towered over her, he was intimidating when she was standing, but when he stood over her at this angle, she was even more afraid. "You have angered him for the last time Child, it is time to suffer your consequence."
"What have I done? I have done nothing against the father, I wouldn't." she tried to stand again however the weight was pushed back down.
"You know what you have done, you have conspired against the heavens, you have spoke to the demons of hell, you have talked to Lucifer."
"I have done no such thing! " She screamed back "I love my father, and I love you my brothers, I would never conspire against heaven."
"And now you lie to me! Why do you lie to me!"
"Gabriel I couldn't lie to you!" I tried to reason but he didn't listen to me. Instead he turned his back on me, the General of His army standing right behind Gabriel, he didn't say anything, I didn't know if he believed me or not. "Gabriel I was framed…I don't know what was said but I wouldn't do this…not to you." I turned "And you? Do you believe what was said against me as well?"
The General looked down…he believed what was said causing anger and disbelief to leave my face. "You will not help me?"
"It is too late…You are to serve your punishment on Earth, I am forced to take your wings."
I stood in front of them with pain "You both are truly fools…"
With no warning a deep pain was sliced into my shoulders, the nerves and tendents severing, and the bones against my shoulders cracking, and sudden weight leaving my shoulders, the pain sunk through and I let out a loud cry. The thin and delicate halo around my neck shattered. I was lifted up and thrown off of the ledge and I slowly fell to earth with one face in my mind.
Present Day December 23
"You have got to be kidding me!" I yelled slamming my forehead against the steering wheel again "I am lost? There is no possible way that I could be lost! I was on this road! Or was it this one? Shit!" I pulled over and sighed looking at the map again "No way!" the map said I was way off course, and I was starting to run out of gas…and I was getting hungry, "Man! I am in the middle of only Father knows where, and I am lost, hungry, and running out of Gas!"
My head went down and I took a deep breath "Couldn't possibly know how this day could get any worse." I murmured.
Across the road was a sign "Paradise falls" I looked at it for a moment "Well, I guess it might be better than nothing, at least I can get some food. It is in the middle of nowhere."
I put my car back on the road and drove down the road, in front of me down the road was a weird looking cloud, it looked like dust clouds almost, but from the look of it, it was nothing like that. "I must be seeing shit."
I finally saw the image of Paradise falls, and it looked like it was far from Paradise, "Wow this place, could use some paint, or some oil and matches…"
I got out of the car, I moved my brown hair out of my face and pulled it up into a ponytail, I checked my shirt and my jeans before I stepped inside, to the side of the building there was a pregnant woman smoking a cigarette and a black guy standing next to her, he had a map like I did, he was just as lost as I was. They both turned and looked at me "You lost too?" I asked
The black man nodded "Yeah."
"Funny how the world turns huh?" I asked walking inside, there was a woman and man sitting and one of the booths they both dressed elite, as if they were a rich couple, behind them there was a girl, no older than sixteen in a black mini skirt and a black top, in the corner there was a man on the chair beating a television, "C'mon baby!" he yelled banging on the T.V.
The rich couple and there daughter looked at me and the older black man with only one arm and a crook for another looked at me as well "Take your seat miss." He said
I walked over and sat at the counter "Can I get one of your specials and a large glass of tea please?"
"Comin up young lady."
Behind me I heard the woman say "Howard, she looks like she just came off of the street, she may have stolen that car."
I looked at my outfit, I wore some flair jeans that were worn, they didn't look bad though, and I wore a black t-shirt with a tank top underneath it, and a flannel button up shirt tied around my waist, I may not have looked like I stepped off the runway, but I didn't look homeless.
"What am I supposed to do about that? I am not going to tell her to leave."
I didn't take too kindly to people talking about me behind my back, but I didn't say anything yet. The cook set a plate in front of me and a glass of tea "You look out of place miss."
"Yeah, I kind of got lost, I guess that is just my luck." I said "And right before Christmas."
He smiled "My name is Percy, and if it is any consolation, everyone that comes here is lost."
I smiled and shook his hand "Century."
"What an interesting name, your parents must have had quite interesting taste."
My memory shot to angel wings and two men looking at me "You could say that."
The owner smacked the T.V again "I tell ya someday Bob, that thing is gonna hit you back." Percy said
"Are you kidding Percy, her and I go way back."
I rolled my eyes "Does he always do this?" I asked
"Yeah…I am used to It though, this is a normal thing."
"I would have a hard time getting used to it."
Percy smiled "When you're my age you will get more tolerance…So where are you from?"
"Oh here and there, I don't really have a place I call home." I replied taking a bite of my breakfast "I used to, but we had…family problems."
"I am sorry to hear that."
The door swung open and the pregnant waitress and the lost man walked in, the young woman looked at him with interested eyes, and her mother glared at him. He walked over to the counter and The waitress went behind the counter "And where the hell were you, Charlie?" Bob asked "You better not be smoking again, a woman in your condition…"
"Bob, look at where I am at…Could my condition be any worse?" The woman snapped back, handing the man next to me a pack of smokes, he took a seat next to me and sighed. I smirked "Hell of a time to get lost…"
"Your telling me." He said, He looked at Bob "Hey listen, can I use your phone? I don't have any reception and I need to make an important…" He was cut off by the man, Howard, who asked about his car. Bob looked at Howard and said that he would check with his son "Some people." I said laughing looking at the lost man, he looked at me and nodded "Century…" I said extending my hand "I think if we are going to be stuck here we should know each other."
He cocked an eyebrow "Kyle." He said sitting down next to me, he checked his cell phone once more for service and sighed "Shit man, I am gonna be late."
Bob walked outside and I took a look around at the people, the young girl was still staring at Kyle, I smiled at the intensity, remembering the look that I had for someone much older than I, 'She will learn that there is no such thing as love.' Poor thing.'
The couple sitting away from her were still whispering about either me or Kyle, I wasn't sure because the conversation had been shifted back and forth, the woman looked at her daughter "Audrey why don't you come and sit with us?"
"Because I don't want to mother." The girl said
I snickered 'Ah to be young again.'
I looked about twenty three at the most, but my age was so much older, I had ever right to tell people I was older than Jesus' sandles, cause technically... Bob walked through the door again and looked at the couple "He is this close and you guys will be on your way."
The Television kicked out again and the screen turned to snow, he started to glare at it in frustration one more time "Aw Come on!" He banged onto the television, and with one hard smack! The television started to blare a long high pitched noise that irritated my eardrums, the television had a "This is Not a Test" sign across the screen, I winced at the obnoxious squeal for a moment "What the hell is that?" I asked
"Just a test…" Bob murmured
"How can that be just a test when it is so annoying?" I said covering my ears, "Tests don't scream for that long."
Ignorning my comment Bob turned and looked at Percy "Percy turn on that old radio of yours."
Percy did as asked and turned the radio on and moved through the channels, and the same high pictched ringing as the television was turning on the dials of the radio. Figuring that listening to the same thing as watching it he flipped it off "If this is a test wouldn't someone be saying something?" The woman asked.
She had a point, but I didn't say anything "Hey man, can I use your phone?" Kyle asked bob, holding out some money to him "I need to make a phone call."
Bob ripped the money out of his hand and motioned him to the back. I glared up at the television "Wow, this couldn't possibly get any worse."
I had put my foot in my mouth, at the moment I said that…the door opened…
DUN DUN DUNNNNN! I wonder who it could be….Stay tuned lol
