Chapter 1: Abduction
Silvia's POV
It was supposed to be just a date. The memories of our former bond from many years ago were remade and we were happily walking down the shopping district to spend time together. The fantasy dream between the fallen angel and the human princess was quickly shattered as it became a nightmare within moments. The Shadow Angels were attacking, but they were fixed on only one person. They were desperate to take him back and make him theirs again. So they tried to harm me in order to get to him. I, who was petrified to the floor in the sudden arrival, was pushed away by him and landed on the floor as the event before me resurfaced the memories of my 12,000 years memory.
"Silvia, are you alright?" The man smirked painfully before me, sweating as droplets of blood similar to his flame colored hair. My eyes were blurry as with tears as I saw the same man overlap with the man in my reincarnations memories. I couldn't speak nor make a move when the golden eyes close and the Shadow Angel, Toma, taking him from behind with a prevailing smile and dissipate thru the portal. When the events finally sank in, I realized what had happened.
"Apollo….Apollo….. APOLLO!" I yelled with my returned voice as I tried to chase the last of the Shadow Angels as it went thru their portal. It closed along with my heart griped tightly by invisible hands. The drop towards the ground was unnoticed since the ache in my chest was more overwhelming.
"No… Apollo…. give him back…." more tears were falling as I looked at the area I had last seen him, "GIVE HIM BACK!"
DEAVA Headquarters
"How's Silvia?" Sophia said as her blond hair and lab coat flowed behind her while following the medic staff.
"She's still in shock so it is best not to deploy her any time soon. She isn't eating either." The man said as he stopped in front of the patient's room.
"I see," the man left, leaving her in front of the door. She knocked once but received no answer. Sighing she opened the door revealing the girl in the bed. The serious expression that was usually on her face was empty making everything around her seem gray. "Silvia…?" no reply, "Silvia you can't do this to yourself. It's not your fault."
The girl flinched at that and looked up with fresh tears, "It was my fault. I should have done something. I could have defended myself, but I was frozen in place. And then Apollo took the hit and… and…"
"Blood… his blood was being spilt again. He protected me in the same way as 12,000 years ago. Why… why is it always like that?"
Sophia hugged the girl as the tears continued to flow down her face. She looked out the window to see the sun covered by clouds, as if in hiding.
"Please be alright Apollo,"
Shadow Angel's Lair
"Apollonius," Toma said gently with an angelic smiled as he looked inside the sphere. The short red hair flow around the head of the young man inside and asleep as the wounds healed.
"Toma-sama, they are ready," An angelic woman floated silently beside him.
"Good," he motioned for her towards the sleeping form, "Otoha we will soon have him back with us once more. This time we will be sure to make him stay."
"Yes Toma-sama," she said respectfully as the fairies moved the sphere towards a crystalized pedestal holding the pair of white wings.
The Holy angel smiled as he dispelled the sphere holding the man and awakening him.
Apollo's POV
The cool feeling of floating dissipated around me making me open my eyes. My eyes widened in horror when I saw the familiar face of my former comrade from 12,000 years ago.
"W-Where am I?" I said at the smiling Shadow Angel. Immediately I remembered the date with Silvia and then being surrounded by the Angels. Wanting to punch him I raised my arm with hands clenched tight. However, before I could swing I was thrown back towards column making an indention in its wake.
I was picked up by an invisible force and thrown onto a pedestal. When I looked up I stared at the white wings that looked like it was torn off of a large bird. Without warning, pain radiated from my back making me unable to move from the spot. I glared at the Holy Angel standing beside me.
"Can you feel your wings calling out to you, Apollonius?" He asked moving his fingers to make the invisible force move my body up regardless of the pain.
"You bastard…" I gritted through my teeth with the pain, "What do you intend…. to do….. with me?"
"What do you think I will do?" the grin on his face made my heart drop to the pit of my stomach, understanding his intentions. The grin widened on both the Music Angel and his, "Once they return to their owner you won't be able to return to your world as a human again. And this time I will make you remain here, forever."
Toma motioned for the fairies to bring them and moved towards my back. The pain became unbearable to even move.
"Let's begin, the beginning of your new rebirth, Apollonius," he whispered into my ear as he moved the wings towards the glowing scars on my back. The searing pain left me breathless and paralyzed. When I felt the connection completed my vision began to unfocused and mind growing foggy as the energy in me began to fade.
An image of a crying girl with sand colored hair appeared within my memories. My hand reached out desperately towards the illusion, trying to wipe the tears away and make her smile again. Before my mind gave in to the darkness I called out to her.
"Silvia…"
