ANGELS AND DEVILS
Chapter 1
Tris POV
The alarm went off. I yawned and smiled up at the ceiling. I threw the blanket off of me and spread my wings. I started swirling around the room. Life has always been like this for me. My halo is a blue colour, but soon, I'm going to have a gold one. And how am I going to do that? I will have to go to school on Earth, and leave heaven for a while. Every angels my age leave home for a better halo.
I've packed my things a few days ago, I've never been so excited about anything before. "Breakfast's ready, honey!" My mother called. "Coming!" I shouted as I dragged my bag with me downstairs. Caleb, my brother was already downstairs, and his halo is a gleaming silver. "Good morning, Beatrice," my father and Caleb both said as they took a sip of their coffee. Mom's golden halo let off a gold light, a shiny one. "Morning sunshine," mom said, gliding to the table.
"How do you think your first day of school will be?" Caleb asked curiously. "I don't know, fun?" I said and sat down at the table. "Good luck, you two. And don't get into trouble. I'm sure you'll get through the year fine, and you'll earn your halos," mom said encouragingly. "Whatever you do, always know that we'll support you," she took my hand and Caleb's. "Okay," I smiled at her.
We finished eating breakfast, and it's time to go to the gate. Where others are also going. The first thing I wanted to do was see what the devils look like. I've heard a lot about them, but never actually saw one. We're mortal enemies and nothing's ever going to change that.
My wings flutter nervously as mom and dad accompanied us to the door. "Be good. Be brave," mom said, putting her hand on my shoulder. Dad gave the same gesture to Caleb. I hugged mom tightly and I thought I saw a scar at her neck. Angels don't have imperfection. We're flawless! I dismissed the thought and hugged my dad. "Behave," my dad whispered and we took off.
"Tris!" I hear someone shout. I spun around and saw Christina. Her halo a bright pink. "Chris!" I shouted back, hugging her tightly. We chit chat a bit until we reached the door. "What's this for?" I asked the guardian angel. "No questions. Just step through it," he said, monotone.
I bit back a remark. Besides, my parents are always telling us to behave. Caleb stepped through the door first. The minute he stepped into the door, he was gone. I hesitated but reluctantly step in. I was engulfed in a bright light. And then I was falling. I landed with a thud on concrete.
As I stand up, I saw a big-metal-moving car coming fast at me. Without thinking, I covered my face and it went right through me. I almost threw up. It was weird, I stumbled to the sidewalk. "Hello there," a deep voice greeted me. I looked up.
He has this, two red horns on his head. A sign that he's a devil, I'm sure. The same way the halo has been a sign for angels. He offered me his hand. I almost took it when he withdrew it. "You don't know anything about this do you?" he chuckled. I was dumbfounded. "They'll explain it in class. I bet I can take on any of you quickly," he said before flying off. What a rude person! He must've scored in his class, whatever their score is. He's good at being a devil, but he's such an idiot. I stretched my wings a bit, and flew in the direction of the school.
Four POV
The beeping of the alarm clock is fucking annoying. I smashed the snooze button. Going back to sleep is the most proper thing to do but my dad is one hell of a devil. He's an asshole and I'd really appreciate it if he didn't lash me today. Or ever. The bad thing is, I'm going to school. I'm really excited to be rid of him.
I finished packing my bag last night, and it is now lying near the door. "TOBIAS!" my dad roared from downstairs. I groaned. 16 years of life with him, he never spoke to me nicely. I guess that's what devils do, I don't even know why I thought of that. That is in our nature, and it's in me to disobey him. And that's what earned me hideous scars, mostly on my back.
I sluggishly dragged myself of the bed, ignoring the use of my sings. One day, my horn is going to be hot and big, I'm really counting to that. My friends are always commenting on my behaviour and that's bad, in a good way. I stomped downstairs and grabbed a toast. I hurriedly exited the house before my dad said anything. I was grateful he doesn't follow me out, or I'll be spending the day full of bruises and pain.
I got to the gate and went through it without listening to what the devil said. The last thing I saw from my world was him giving a slight nod. I am falling through darkness, my horns are the only fiery thing I see. I landed with a thud on the pavement. I've been here before, with my mom, before she got herself killed. I got up and brushed the dirt off me.
Just as I was stretching my wings, I heard a scream. I grinned, angels. Them and their chiming bells of a voice. An angel landed in the middle of the road. How smart of the guardian angel. I watched her. She covered her face before a large truck hit her. I guffawed and hid in the shadows. She stumbled to the pavement. Reluctantly, I went over to her. I bet this will be fun. "Hello, there," I greeted her. She stared at me. 'Didn't they tell you it's rude to stare?' I wondered. I held out a hand. She's completely oblivious to anything that has to do with devils. She was about to take it when I pulled back.
"You don't know anything about this do you?" I chuckled. "They'll explain it in class. I bet I can take on any of you quickly," I said. I turned around and flew to the school. I'm gonna have fun this year, I thought as I flew. But that girl, she's different from others I've seen. She and her blonde hair, her blue halo, and her grey-blue eyes. I can tell she's different. But she's pretty a voice echoed in my head. Shut up! I said to myself. But all angels are pretty, she's not any different, I assured myself. I have to make a bad impression on the teacher. I have to be the worse. I have to.
And with that, I flew around and found my room, which I will be staying for 3 years.
Angels and Devils. This is weird, I know .But it would mean the world if you reviewed, please? Anyways, I had to make Tobias the same age, sorry for that change.
