Chapter one: Heart of Sakura
There was a time when humans and magical creatures lived in peace, when winged horses and dragons stroll free and the world was full of harmony.
But it was not for long.
The humans grew old and left all the magic behind, they forgot about the witches and all the magical flying things, they stopped believing and from that day forward the creatures were only seen in books and dreams, a fairy tale or a story to teach the young, allowing themselves to become blind, deaf and mute to the wonders around them.
But by doing so the chaos had begun.
Stillness filled the Heavens, on crucifixion day.
Some say it rained, I don't know if it's true.
But even so, what is forgotten cannot be erased, they were still there. Hidden from the eyes of humans, but still existing deep within the mortal souls. Their sad eyes watching us, heart broken, those who could cry did, those who could not seemed to hold even more sorrow in their hearts, but they all watched, always from afar, as if there was a thick endless wall dividing, separating them, preventing them from ever returning, hiding away their existence from human eyes. Even after we have forgotten about them they remembered us, and one by one they had slowly lost hope of things ever going back to the way they were.
Well, I can just imagine ten thousand angels cried
That would seem like rain to me and you.
The creatures decided to continue living alongside the humans, accepting the fate of becoming invisible, but alas, not all of them were still good, some of them became so blinded by rage, seeking some sort of reason, some sort of revenge for the humans' betrayal.
The moon guardians were the first to fall, a new and powerful star was born, darkness surrounded it while it fed on the strongest emotions known to man and beast until it was strong enough to place the moon under it's shadow, once their precious moon had lost all it's powers, the black star placed it's shadow over the guardians, searching for the silver guardian, the moon's son who would become the first vampire ever to roam the world, as more and more beings joined the side of the wicked.
The angels all stood ready to take Him from the tree
They waited for the words from His voice.
The unholy beings were driven by revenge, their actions and deeds worse than cruel, turning the human world into one big blood bath, their souls taken away from them, hearts turned to ice, stripping them from all that was good, leaving them with only hate to feed on.
And when he asked the father why has thou forsaken me.
They watched the savior die of his own choice.
But not all of the remaining creatures were bad, spared from the black curse, their hearts and souls far too pure, darkness unable to enter them. Those of the side of light went searching for the fairy queen, hoping her powers were strong enough, yet the fairies were creatures of the earth born from the laughter of children and powered by the humans' belief, they had already grown weak, losing their powers day by day as the unholy beings took away the children's laughter and replaced them with tears, as humans had already lost their belief in their existence.
Yet the fairy queen could not ignore both the creatures and the humans desperate cries for help, yet she already knew that it was hopeless to try and fight against the powers of darkness, their strength growing each day while the side of the light grew weaker, yet she tried her best and the war for good over bad had begun.
I've never seen ten thousand angels cry
But I'm sure they did
As they stood by
And watched the savior die.
Yet no matter how much they tried the evil beings lead by the first vampire, now king of the vampires and ruler of all evil beings overpowered the earths forces of light, and darkness fell on our world for many years, vampires taking their place as rulers of earth, the black star glowing darkly, feeding it's loyal creations with darkness, blocking the sun and preventing it's light from reaching the earth. All hope seemed to die in the hands of the damned.
But the heavenly forces of light, the most powerful beings of all finally rose and with beautiful heavenly voices shouted "Enough!" knowing they had no choice but to break the heavenly rules and interfere, for they could not take anymore of the bloody sight before them as the earth was soaked with blood, and so under the orders of god, an angel chosen by fate was sent to earth, for if more than one heavenly being was to step upon the earth it would burn in white flames, for the others to join, the fated angel must find the jewel of god and restore it's light, the fated angel had come to earth with a mission, to return the souls of the wicked, and to place upon each evil being the curse of weakness, each evil being possessing it's own.
God turned his head away
He couldn't bear the sight
It must have looked like rain
When ten thousand angels cried.
The brave angel went from place to place, bringing light and hope wherever she went, placing her curse on every evil being she encountered on her mission, each new weakness far more terrible than the one that came before it, but the worst one she left for the darkest of all beings, her worst weakness she saved for the vampires, they had to be punished for all the blood they had spilled, all the innocent blood they had on their hands.
The angel wished for the day she could finally face the vampire king, the fated angel was the purest of all the beings of light, stories of her tell of her angelic and enchanting beauty, her kind and caring heart, and eyes like two beautiful jewels of emerald that sparkled with hope.
As the sun slipped away
The skies turned to grey
And when Jesus gave his all
That's when the tears began to fall
I've never seen ten thousand angels cry
But I'm sure they did
As they stood by
And watched the savior die.
She revived the fallen creatures of light and gave them strength to defeat the evil ones and a second war began but this time the good won with the help of the angel and the damned were banished under ground to the world that was hell, the vampire king becoming it's ruler, cursing the god and the sun guardians, the black star transforming it's powers into a black jewel that was placed within the depths of hell where it would be protected from the light while the black star disappeared back into the darkness of space until the day vampires will grow strong once more and it's chilling presence shall return.
The vampire king looking up into the world of the living from his new formed kingdom known as hell, vowing to return once more to finish what he had started, dragging the souls of god and anyone standing in his way down to hell, becoming keeper of sinners and god of the underworld.
He vowed to take revenge against the humans and god's sun guardians, for he may have been trapped but he was immortal.
The earth shook and opened, pulling the damned down into the underworld. Finally the earth had stilled, the cracks mending and disappearing, the air was filled with cries of joy as the darkness was lifted and sunlight was restored to the land. And the fairy queen and all of the creatures thanked the angel but when they came to greet her they only found her body lying lifeless on the grass, a pool of blood growing around her still form, staining her white robes, her white wings damp from the blood, her hands resting beside her on the soft grass and the peaceful expression she wore on her face, her eyes open yet they were lifeless, the green lacking it's beautiful shine, and the sword, the black sword, it's blade stuck into her chest, her heart pierced by it's sharp edge, her life taken by it's dagger.
They all gathered around her with tears in their eyes to share their respect for her, their guardian angel which gave her life to save them, a bright light filled the clearing as hundreds of angels came down from the sky , landing softly on the grass beside the dead angel as each one pulled a feather out of their wings and placed it around the angel's still body, the fairies came forward, each holding a beautiful flower in their hands as one by one they placed it beside the angel, it went on as each creature came forward and placed a part of themselves beside the still angel, the sky becoming cloudy as rain matching itself to the angels' tears fell from the sky, last came a beautiful angel, the rest parting to let her pass and bowing their heads in respect as the beautiful angel kneeled down beside the girl and pulled a long beautiful snow white feather from her wings and placed it on the girls heart, it gave a soft glow and disappeared inside the angel's chest, the older woman's cries seemed to get harder yet a soft smile crossed her face as she leaned to kiss the girl's forehead, and moved her hand closing the girl's eyes as she stood up and stepping back from the body as a bright warm light wrapped itself around the angel as a beautiful voice matching wind-bells filled the air and the light faded, instead of the angel's body now stood a large and beautiful sakura tree, it's branches full of pink petals, the blossoms moving softly against the wind, on the grass surrounding the tree were beautiful flowers of all kinds and colors, yet the amount of Nadeshiko flowers and roses seemed to outnumber them all, and from that day forward peace was restored and it stayed for centuries, and that tree still stands there, It's eternal bloom an enchanting mystery.
But now it's time to begin our story, the story of a forbidden love, the crimes of passion.
God turned his head away
He couldn't bear the sight
It must have looked like rain
When ten thousand angels cried.
