So I know I just fell off the earth back in May and I'm REALLY sorry for that, and I'm not gonna start making up excuses for it either. I really got inspired by The Fallen series by Lauren Kate to write this one. I really hope you enjoy it and RR. I know I abruptly stopped in the middle of Everyone's Against Us so the next chapter should be up shortly. Once again I'm really sorry for the huge delay! Please RR!
Disclaimer: I don't own the characters in this storyline AT ALL. Or part of the storyline for that matter.
Chapter 1
As the wind whipped through her hair Gabriella felt tears come to her eyes. As she fell toward the unending punishments that lay ahead of her she began to ask herself why. What had she done, and why had she done it? Disowning her own kind and basically throwing off the choice to live in peace forever in Heaven. The Throne and Lucifer had scorned her and declared she live in ultimate pain forever because she had not been clear on her intentions on how to solve either sides problems. She had said to either side that choosing love would've solved their problems instead. She had asked the Throne why He had not thought of that conception of the situation before. How had she been so stupid? Questioning His intentions? That was unforgivable. As she dropped farther and faster toward the unseen ground she began to cry uncontrollably.
The memories of the hours before the drop replayed in her mind repeatedly. Then Gabriella realized the reason for her decline of the offers to join with Heaven or Hell. Him. Troy. Her one true love. He had been her choice. If she had chosen either side, she would've lost him forever. Would never have seen him again. So she had chosen the selfish way around the situation. But it did not work. Both the Throne and Lucifer had seen through her reasoning and had cast all the angels who had picked the dark side and the ones who were undecided through the clouds and straight toward the land of man.
As Gabriella fell through the dark clouds the thoughts and feelings of terror and emptiness that would have filled her if she had picked one of the sides presented before her only a short time ago rushed through her and she could only try to block them out. The pain she would have felt for the rest of her eternal life would have crushed her in a weeks time.
Troy was her savior. Her one true love.
As she fell through the darkened clouds she filled every second with thoughts of his sweet face. Dropping thousands of feet through the sky toward her and Troy's everlasting love and pain filled eternity.

Troy walked across the lawn of the new high school he was attending for the rest of his high school experience. East High School. His mom had told him all he could know about the school. They had a wonderful basketball program and had excellent classes as well.
As he walked through the front doors he was immediately greeted by a huge statue of the schools mascot. A wildcat. Painted red, white, and gold. It's sharp teeth were bared and the cat looked as if it might pounce at any second. Right next to the cat was a huge 'E'. Painted red with a hint of gold.
Students rushed around the foyer toward who knows where, only stopping for mere seconds to either greet friends or to stare at Troy and quickly run along. As Troy took in his surrounding he felt a weird sensation pass through his stomach. This school was different. He could sense it. He quickly recovered and went in search for the office area.
As he walked he could see students whispering around him as they looked in his direction and quickly retorted their eyes in another direction once Troy noticed their staring. Troy walked further and further through the school until he finally found the right room.
He walked in and sat down until he was called over to the front desk and was able to be helped. The lady behind the counter was wearing thick gray glasses and a navy blue blouse with a turquoise skirt.
As she looked up she stared right at Troy and asked, "Yes?".
Troy quickly showed her his papers and she sighed. "Right over here young man." She gestured for Troy to sit across the room in front of another desk that was situated along the farthest wall. Troy moved to sit in the chair in front of the desk and waited. After what seemed like 3 seconds a woman walked into the front office and walked straight over to where Troy was situated. She immediately offered Troy her hand and Troy shook it. She sat and greeted him.
"Why hello Mr. Bolton. I've been expecting you." She leaned back in her chair and stared intently at Troy for what seemed to Troy 5 excruciatingly long minutes.
Once Troy realized she wasn't going to say anything else he spoke up, "I bet you have." As Troy was about to say something else to cut through the tension in the room he noticed the office grow quieter and a little darker.
As he turned to see what had caused this disruption in the force, his eyes landed on the most beautiful girl he had ever seen. She had dark brown hair that was almost black and a curvy body that would about make anybody sink to their knees. She had on a black leather jacket with a plain black t-shirt underneath. With black skinny jeans to go with her black combat boots. Troy was immediately taken with her as she walked over to the front desk.
"Uh-mm." Troy quickly turned back around and stared intently at the lady across the desk. Only for a second he had forgotten she was there. Come to think of it, he had forgotten everyone else in the room wasn't there. Had he been staring at the girl for longer than he had thought? He quickly shredded all thought while the lady started speaking again.
"Back to business Mr. Bolton", she spoke with a strange fire in her voice that Troy couldn't comprehend why or how it had come to be there. "I hope that you have a wonderful school year and have a wonderful first day." She handed Troy his schedule and other papers he would need for the rest of the day. They shook hands and Troy turned to leave. But as he turned he could feel a presence closes behind him.
"Ahh Miss Montez. I've been expecting you." The principle as Troy guessed said from an office just to Troy's right. He looked stern and tense as the girl Troy had seen minutes before walked toward his office. Troy noticed her boots had chains strapped to them. They jangled as she walked. She also looked tense as she stared hard at anything other than the principle.
Troy certainly didn't want to get into that situation so he moved across the office toward the front door. But as his hand grasped the door handle he could feel a gaze on him. He turned just in time to see that the girl named Miss Montez star looking his way with quite a frightened stare. Both teens stared at the the other as Troy made his way out of the office and toward his home room.
