THE BEAUTY WITHIN
Prologue
Heaven has held the world in awe. Is there such a thing? Or is it all an elaborate story to make death seem more approachable, knowing that there is a sanctuary waiting for us. Scholars and scientists wish us to believe, that no there is no heaven. Our religion on the other hand makes us think otherwise. For those of us who like to believe in the imagination, who love to know that the unimaginable is possible, beg to differ. Is heaven real? The question is. are you a believer. or a questioner?
In this time and place, heaven is a most grand and elaborate place. A magnificent sight to behold. That is if you were ever granted entrance into heaven. For as we all know if there is a heaven then there is surely to be a hell. If you ever found yourself standing out side the golden structure of the gates to heaven, they themselves would leave you in awe. The Golden Gates Of Heaven. A beautiful sight in their own right. The gates a forever closed save for when someone is granted entrance. If one should look upon them, you would think you would be able to see the beauty of the heavenly buildings beyond. But alas, it is not to be. For the gates have a spell on them. When one looks upon them all they can see is the fluffy white clouds of the sky, almost like the gates are the only structure that has graced the sky. For protection. For if a soul, bound for hell should surface at the gates, he would not be able to look upon the splendour that resides behind the enormous structure. He would be turned away, his sinful eyes never to ruin the beauty of the world beyond.
As the gates are opened and you are led through, you are greeted with a beautiful courtyard, like none the world has seen. It could put the courtyards of the kings and queens of earth to shame. The very pathway to the doorways of the massive building in front of you, are edged and lined with golden like stones. As you walk up the path, to every side are beautiful bushes of flowers and trees. It is almost like every species of flowers graces this beautiful sanctuary. As you walk up the steps of the building, the shear size of the place makes you quiver in your boots. The whole building looks to be made out the clouds itself, and if you were to blow on it, the clouds would surely blow away. Yet as you place your hand against the wall it is as hard as any stone of earth. The majestic building shines in the sun, a golden colour radiating and almost royalty like status.
Many angels can be seen walking around the beautiful place. At the gates were the welcomers to heaven, or as they were officially named, the Wing- bearers. Many minor lords of heaven walked around conversing, mainly on events they had seen taken place below on earth as they watched their charges. And then there were just the everyday angels. But as every place holds a leader, so does heaven. Five to be exact.
Ares, lord of death and rebirth amongst the angels. Deciding whom of the angels should be reborn. Also bringing war amongst mortals of earth. He was mainly to balance out good and evil on earth. His attributes were from the planet of Mars. So accompanying his war like nature, he was also the one with the worst temperament of the lords.
Aphrodite, Lady of beauty and love. Within the lords of heaven she held love and compassion. Her attributes were form the planet Venus, thus she was named the Angel Of Love. Or sometimes, as mortals would believe, Cupid. She would often be found soothing Ares' temper, having a soothing aurora around her very being.
Zeus, Lord of the sky and the weather. He was responsible for the sometimes unpredictable forecasts. But within the lords of heaven he was responsible for justice and freedom. His attributes were born form the planet Jupiter. Hence the reason he can control the sky and weather. This lord word often keep to himself, never dealing in any affairs unless asked to do so.
Hermes, lord of knowledge and legends. His attributes were from the planet of mercury. He was often seen as the messenger within the lords. Always willing to run errands and accompanying the newest angels to their quarters. A friendly lord, and well liked by all that resided in heaven.
Selene, Lady of friendship ties, family bonds and the cleanser of souls. Many also believed that she too held the power of love. Her whole aurora calling to those around her, radiating love and friendship to those ever graced by her presence. Her attributes were from the moon. She was the only beauty to ever surpass that of Aphrodite, many believing that the two were sisters. And so a unanimous vote saw Selene become the leader of the lords.
Heaven was a happy place to live. No worrying about wars, of course unless Ares became angry. Which was a rare sight for Aphrodite was always by his side.
But a legend was soon to rise. And the angels would need help from five unlikely sources on earth. Each lord took a charge and waited fro the day when they would have to ultimately bring them to heaven in the only way they knew how. The legend had to be stopped at all costs.
(AN I know that they are gods, but for the sake of my story they are angels ok.)
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
In Heaven, in the not so distant future.....
Four beautiful girls sat in a room conversing about almost anything. They were beautiful because they were of heavenly nature. They were angels. Even so they were beautiful long before they became angels.
The first one was a brunette of pure strength. She was by far the strongest of the girls in this group. She had long brown hair that was held up in a neat ponytail held by an emerald hair band, her most treasured possession. Her eyes were of a brown that was flecked with specks of gold, making them seem to sparkle, as if electricity running along a wire. The attire she wore was identical to that of the other girls. It was a white clothe like dress, that seem to be the same design of that which was worn by Romans in times of long ago. And her wings graced her back. Pure white wings that seemed to change to an almost light green when she moved in the light. Her feet were in cased in gold satin shoes similar to those worn by ballerinas. They tied up around mid calf. Adorning her wrists were bands much the same as the ties of her shoes.
She had become an angel after she had been killed saving a young child from being hit by a truck. The welcomers of heaven, also known as Wing-Bearers believed that it was not yet her time to go, but they had plans in store for this Amazon like girl. And so she had stayed on helping out in the kitchens, as she was also an expert cook.
Her name was Lita.
The second of the girls also happened to be the shyest but also the smartest. She had short blue hair that matched her beautiful blue eyes. When someone should look into her blue depths, she gave you a feeling of relaxing in the ocean, as if being calmed by the rippling effects of water. In her ears were the most beautiful sapphire earrings imaginable. She was a gentle girl, and also one who looked after any injuries, should any arise. She was dressed in the same way Lita was, with her pure white wings giving off a blue hew in the same way Lita's appeared green.
She had become an angel when she had stepped in front of her mother, to take the blow of a bullet. They had been in the hospital where her mother had been working, when a deranged patient began shotting a gun around. He had lastly aimed it at the girl's mother and she quickly threw her mother aside, and had taken the bullet for her. The Wing-Bearers also believed that she had been taken before her time, and soon realised that a pattern was emerging. So they too kept this young girl on and she helped out in the fields of tutoring and medical attention.
Her name was Ami.
The third girl was a priestess in training to one of the highest lords of the heavenly community. She had a special ability in being able to read people's auroras, and also that of the sacred fire of her temple. But she was also one no one dared to cross. She was a nice and friendly girl but when the need arose she could change her moods with out warning. She had long black hair that flowed down her back. In the light it sometimes shone a deep violet colour. Her eyes were also a deep violet colour, but they always seemed to be burning with a desire to explore her talents. If you looked closely enough sometimes you would think there was a fire burning in her mysterious depths. As the girls before her she wore the same white dress, with her wings spanning out across her back. Her wings also shone a reddish colour in the light like those of the other girls.
She had become an angel after a freak storm hit her temple where she lived with her grandfather. She had used her body to shelter her aged guardian, and had taken every blow that would have been aimed for her grandfather. She had died in his arms that day, his last living relative. As the girls before, the Wing-Bearers also believed that she had been taken before time, and had kept her on, where she became a priestess in training to one of the highest lords.
Her name was Raye.
The last girl was the most happiest of the four. She could make the dimmest of situations happier. But she was sometimes the most serious and focused of them as well. She had long golden hair that reached down her back to about mid thigh. It was half of it was held in place by a red ribbon, her most treasured possession. Even though the bow was well worn down, the girl refused to give it up. She had baby blue eyes, and they shone with a certain amount of mischief although they often held a serious side and an unmistakable amount of love. She also wore the white dress and her wings spread across her back. They sometimes shone a golden yellow colour in the light.
She had become an angel after she had saved a young girl from drowning in the ocean, and consequently had lost her own life in the process. She had been playing beach volleyball, a game she loved, when she had heard the stressed call of the girl. She ignored the calls of her friend telling her to come back, and swam out to meet the girl. She had held her above the water but by the time the lifeguards had arrived it was to late for her. When she had appeared at the gates of heavens the Wing-Bearers knew that she too had been taken to early. But they had let her stay feeling that she would soon become very useful. She had stayed and helped out with the making of the heavenly dresses that they wore.
Her name was mina.
The four girls had arrived on the same day, all within a few minutes of each other. When the Wing-bearers had realised that they had all been taken before time they had begun to consult the five highest of all lords. They requested that a council be held. But the lords had been to busy to consult them straight away so it was a few months before they were able to express their concerns about the four girls.
And so we now find them seated in the largest of all rooms on heaven. The Wing-bearers had arrived first and had now been seated in accordance to their ranking. They rose from their seats as the five highest lords entered the room. They bowed slightly to them, waiting till they took their seats before they them selves were seated again.
They sat on the other side of the round table.
First was Zeus Lord of the sky and the weather. He was responsible for the sometimes unpredictable forecasts. But within the lords of heaven he was responsible for justice and freedom. His attributes were born form the planet Jupiter. Hence the reason he can control the sky and weather. This lord word often keep to himself, never dealing in any affairs unless asked to do so. He was the first to address the curious and uncertain Wing- bearers.
" What is it of such importance that you have requested a council with us?" he asked in a deep commanding, yet friendly voice.
" I'm sorry to have disturbed you my lords, but I and the other Wing- bearers have a concern with four new angels. They arrived here about 4 months ago, the same day and within a few minutes of each other. We all felt that they were not yet ready to part from earth, but as a rule we had to consult you. Unfortunately you were too busy at the time and so we had to keep them on. We still feel that they should not be here," the Leader said.
The lords ladies looked at each other.
" You say four, were they young ladies?" a soft female voice asked.
She was Aphrodite, Lady of beauty and love. Within the lords of heaven she held love and compassion. Her attributes were form the planet Venus, thus she was named the Angel Of Love. Or sometimes, as mortals would believe, Cupid. She would often be found soothing Ares' temper, having a soothing aurora around her very being.
The wing-bearers turned towards her and nodded their heads in unison.
" Yes, they were my lords. Four young girls."
Once again the lords and ladies looked at each other, some with surprised expressions, others excited.
" We will ask you to bring these angels before us," another deep voice asked. This in turn belonged to the lord Ares, lord of death and rebirth amongst the angels. Deciding whom of the angels should be reborn. Also bringing war amongst mortals of earth. He was mainly to balance out good and evil on earth. His attributes were from the planet of Mars. So accompanying his war like nature, he was also the one with the worst temperament of the lords.
The Wing-bearers nodded, bowed slightly and hurried from the room.
" Do you really think they could be the ones we have been waiting for?" a soft male voice asked. He was Hermes lord of knowledge and legends. His attributes were from the planet of mercury. He was often seen as the messenger within the lords. Always willing to run errands and accompanying the newest angels to their quarters. A friendly lord, and well liked by all that resided in heaven.
" Yes Hermes, they very well could be. Quickly go and find the legend, we must know soon if they are the ones we have been waiting for," a sweet female voice softly said. This belonged to Selene, lady of friendship ties, family bonds and the cleanser of souls. Many also believed that she too held the power of love. Her whole aurora calling to those around her, radiating love and friendship to those ever graced by her presence. Her attributes were from the moon. She was the only beauty to ever surpass that of Aphrodite, many believing that the two were sisters. And so a unanimous vote saw Selene become the leader of the lords.
Hermes quickly made his way from the room to the very expansive library wings. They held the knowledge of all events in the world, from past to present. He knew where every book was held, where every legend was placed and had no trouble finding the book he was after. He quickly made his way back to the room. Out of breath he handed the book to Selene.
" Here it is. It is on page 215," he said as he began taking deep breaths to slow down his rapidly beating heart. Selene quickly skimmed through the pages until she reached the page she needed. Soon the Wing-bearers returned followed by the four angels. The girls looked timid, yet each lord could see the determination in their eyes. The Wing-bearers bowed slightly.
" My lords, these are the four young angels."
" Thank you, you are all excused," Selene said softly smiling at them as they again bowed slightly and left the room.
Once again the room was filled with silence, as the four angels looked at the five lords. The lords faces held smiles, while the angels remained emotionless.
" So we finally meet the prophesised girls," Ares said as he stood from his seat and made his way to Raye. The other lords followed suit. Hermes heading for Ami, Aphrodite for Mina and Zeus for Lita.
" There is just one problem, there is one missing," Selene said sadly. The lords looked at her then back towards the girls in front of them.
" That you are right. But we must train these girls while we wait Selene, your charge will arrive soon," Aphrodite said sympathetically. Selene smiled sadly at her.
" Of course you are right. All right everyone, you have your charges, you know what you must do so begin the training now," she commanded.
" Excuse me, if you don't mind me asking but what is this all about?" Raye asked. Selene turned to her and smiled.
" Your lord will tell you in time."
