Salutem Judas.
Well decided to take Forsaken down because I didn't like how it was turning out. Seemed to generic. Now, the title means The Salvation of Judas. Don't jump to conclusions, it's a surprise :3
Summary: She walks slowly, so slowly, up to Monsignor Thatcher, nothing but the thought of his sins on her mind. Every sin, every word he spoke from his hypocritical mouth made her blood burn in anger. The sleek dress she is adorned in hugs her curves. He smiles a crooked smile, eyes wrinkling and she places a kiss on his lips, soft, sweet and she smirks as she pulls back and saunters away. The only thing on his mind is how he would atone for his sins he planned to commit with such a lovely flower.
Chapter 1:
Always Fight Big baby blue eyes look up at a man with the same colored eyes, both pairs sad and forlorn.
"But daddy, you can't go! I don't want to go with the men! Daddy, why can't you stay?" he smiles sadly down at his little girl, all big blue eyes and long honey colored hair. The sun is bright and hot, breads of sweat running down both of their backs.
"I do have to go, and so do you love. These men, they are dear friends of mine, they will protect you. Stay with Monsignor Babel, he'll take care of you. I promise I'll find you later darling." He kisses her forehead as tears gather in her eyes.
"but daddy! I don't want you to go!" tears fall from her beautiful eyes like a river flowing quickly through a dam. Her voice cracks and the sound pulls at the man's gentle heart.
"Little darling I have to go fight the monsters. To make the world safe for you so you can grow me that garden you keep talkin about." He smiles through thick sadness, his little girl's tears breaking his heart. She sniffs and pouts and he is forced to gather her up, little brown dress with black shoes and all, into his arms and hug her tightly, not wanting to let go. His heart shatters at the very thought of leaving her with these men. Though he has no choice. The church wants him, and he can't deny them and save his daughter.
"Salus Mae, when your mother died I was heartbroken and you fixed my heart. Now I have to go fight the scary monsters so we can be happy again. A little unhappiness is worth it in the end, right?" his voice is thick and rich. The accent of the far off sector ten runs deep in his veins.
"Daddy, I love you." She sniffs as he slowly puts her down. Her hair blows in the wind, her dirty face smudged with the flying dust.
"I love you too baby girl. Just remember, always fight for what you believe in. If I find Raul, I promise I'll send him to get you, alright?" and with that he gets into the truck that takes him away from her. The thought of her big brother coming to fetch her raised her heart a little, but before she knows it she's sobbing, and gathered into the arms of a kindly looking man with barely graying hair. Wide blue eyes stare out at the world and she knows then that she would never see her daddy again.
"Salus Mae. Who named you that?" the man's voice is light and questioning. She is surprised he wouldn't know, she thought all churchmen knew Latin.
"My daddy. He always said I was his Salvation after mommy died. Mommy died when I was six." She mumbles quietly through tears.
"What's your real name?" he asks as they climb into a covered car. She wipes her tears, not watching her daddy go. Her bright blue eyes and honey color hair are dirty, and her face is covered in tears mixed with dirt.
"Marigold."
Salus Mae- My Salvation. Her father is what could be called Scottish. Yes, I'm aware I do so love men from that area of the world. :3
