Resume: Mizuki: a business man who'll make anything to win in life. Yuuta: the guardian angel sent to watch over and judge his last three months of life and decide if he's Heaven material or goes straight to Hell.
But what happens when the laws of angels are broken? When the human is able to see the angel and interact with him?
This is an AU that it is not an AU… why? Read to find out.
Chapter one - Yuuta's mission.
"Yuuta kun, so… do you feel refreshed after your rest?" said the archangel, with his honey voice behind Yuuta. The young angel jumped from his cloud, turning and bowing to the oldest angel.
"I am terribly sorry, your highness." He asked, with his face red "I was right about to meet you sir… I just fell asleep for a moment."
He bowed again.
"It won't happen again sir!!!" he shouted in a panic voice.
"Oh, Yuuta… there is no need for such ruckus." The angel smiled with kindness. Yuuta knew very well the archangel, has it had been him who had given him his wings and took care of Yuuta while he was still a newbie angel. He up looked the archangel and had the biggest respect on him that anyone else. Although he wasn't the only one to respect his highness, many angels admired the archangel because of his perfection, his kindness was only compare by his looks, the archangel was the expression of beauty itself. His brown, silk, by his shoulders hair moved in the wind, showing his white smooth skin and his gorgeous sky colour eyes, he was a male angel, but he was more beautiful that any girl.
Yuuta had grey, big and vivid eyes, his hair was brown and short, his white skin made a match with his white robes of a small position angel. But still Yuuta lived a happy life as guardian angel, he hopped to become someday as respectful and rightful as the archangel, living with his goal in mind. Unfortunately he sometimes felt asleep on his job brakes.
"Well, since you finished your job, I received another one that might be perfect for you." The archangel smiled.
"If your highness says so…" Yuuta said with respect.
"This one will be a test of you, and might high up your status. Although it's "those type" of jobs that you hate… But I don't think that you will have any trouble with him."
Yuuta looked at the serious face of the archangel, and understood right away what was the job.
"I don't think that I have the matureness to deal with judgements… It would be better if his highness found someone…"
"I already told them that you had accepted." The oldest angel said, calmly, leaving Yuuta with his mouth open in shock.
"What? How could you…"
"I don't know why I did it… But when I looked at the target I felt a wave that it has to be you." The archangel looked to Yuuta in the eyes, as an archangel, he had a sensitivity in the ways of the fate that the normal angels didn't had. But this was the first time that Yuuta had heard a premonition regarding an angel.
Many angels believed in Fate and in the Destiny, but Yuuta was not one of them, He felt that the angels shouldn't interfere the way they did with the mortal world, his opinions made him after 50 years still be in the same position that he assumed once he became a guardian angel, the lowest ranking in heaven, aside of the "resting souls" that were the new souls that were resting of the life after their deaths.
But Yuuta liked his job as a guardian angel, he had the job to protect the lives and watch over the mortal world when he had a target. But because of his beliefs he had more than once only gave his supporting presence to the target, not influencing at all in the actions of the human. Which made him be considered a "bad guardian angel" in heaven.
The job that the archangel had given to him, a "judgement work", was a job that made an angel study a human that was about to die, to see if his heart was worth of being save or not. Normally was when it was a person that did mean things but had a complicated soul, so the "World Watcher" needed more information of it, and requested a second opinion from an angel.
But it was a stressing job, because the target was scheduled to die.
"You know that I hate these kind of jobs." Yuuta said, while walking to the double door that lead to the mortal world, the "Gate".
"I know… but…" the archangel said, but Yuuta finished his sentence.
"you felt that it had to be me… right." Yuuta concluded with a bored face "as much as I respect you, your highness, I am not able of believing in such a thing as "fateful encounters". No angel as the right to toy with a human life."
They walked in silence until the "Gate", the arch angel opened the big wooden door.
"But anyway, I have to do it right?" Yuuta smiled to his superior "Just to know… How many years thus he has left?"
"He has three months." The archangel started to close the door.
"THREE MONTHS!! HOW THE HELL AM I TO GET TO KNOW HIM IN THREE MONTHS?" Shouted Yuuta, but the gate had been closed and he was being pulled by the gravity of the human world.
"This is unfair!!!" he shouted as he let his soul being carried away.
Yuuta was flying towards a small flashing red light that was positioning his target.
'I can't believe that the archangel did this to me! How can I know if a soul is good or not in three moths?? I cannot judge a soul in such a small time… Damn I can't even judge a soul if I had three years...'
He came to the place were the light was, under it he had an 11 flour building, with every corridor full of workers.
"I can't even find the stupid target!!" he shouted to the red light that was fading in his front "You cannot expect me to find the target in there!!"
"I am sorry…" the red light spoke "but there is something blocking the search wave. I cannot help you anymore."
The light disappeared in the air, leaving Yuuta with a desperate look towards the building.
"What in heaven did I do to deserve this!!" he shouted towards the sky, but no responses came.
He flew to the ceiling of the building, landing on one of his sides, with a view to the street above.
'It belongs to a medium company that it's starting to have some luxuries.' Yuuta was searching the angel's network trying to figure out the various people that were in the building. 'Maybe I can this Mizuki Hajime in the company data…'
But a sudden voice shouted from his behind.
"Don't do it!!" a voice shouted, Yuuta's turned and saw a guy stretching his hand towards his direction. He looked both ways to see if there was someone next to him… But he was the only one in the arm direction.
'That's strange… Who is he talking to?' Yuuta though, looking at the young guy. It looked like a healthy twenty years old businessman, he had curly hair with purple reflexes, dark blue eyes that looked concerned, was wearing a blue suit that matched his grey tie and white shirt.
'Probably just a freaked out guy, no need to concern…' Yuuta turned again to the street to not be distracted by the human that had appeared. But the human shouted again as he did.
"Don't you dare to jump! The last thing that I need now is my company on the news because a stupid brat thinks that his carnival wings can fly."
Yuuta turned in shock.
'He cannot possibly be talking about me… It's… a human cannot see an angel.' His mind thought in panic 'But, he talked about a boy with wings…'
Yuuta looked again in every direction, trying to see another boy with wings.
But he was the only one there.
The guy was getting closer to him. Walking slowly towards Yuuta, that was looking at him with a more palid face than usual.
'It's impossible.'
"Hum… Can you see me?" Yuuta asked, feeling an idiot for even test the possibility of it.
The man blinked, coming even closer.
Yuuta smiled.
'I am really an idiot… has if this human could really see meEE...' Yuuta was grabbed by the businessman, pulling him from the bottom of the roof. His eyes were fully open in panic.
"NOO!! THIS IS NOT POSSIBLE, YOU ARE NOT SUPOSE TO SEE ME!! YOU CANNOT TOUCH MY BODY!! THIS IS IMPOSSIBLE" Yuuta shouted in panic, moving his arms and legs trying to release himself from the arms of the other guy.
"Stop moving!! I am saving your life you fucking little brat!" the human complained, but Yuuta punched him on the face, making him go backwards. He let go the angel that ran a few meters of distance afraid of the retaliations of the human.
But the businessman only massaged his cheek were it had been punched.
Yuuta looked to the human, his breathing was accelerated, he forced himself to take a deep breath.
When he was a little calmer, Yuuta decided that was best to talk to the stranger.
"Can you… really see me?" he asked, to his surprise the unknown guy looked at him as if he had asked the dumbest thing on earth.
"Of course I can see you! What do you think? You are the invisible brat or something." the stranger answered, with an annoyed face.
"Hum… you are not supposed to see me." Yuuta mumbled.
"Oh, ok… I get it…" the human laughed without a drop of amusement in his face "You are a mentally disturbed kid or something?"
"No… I am… an angel…" Yuuta walked to the stranger "Please, sir… I know it's strange, but you are not supposed to see me…"
"Hum… some mental institution runway?" the human touched his hair, playing with it as he though about possible explanations about the boy with wings that was at his front… not even considering what the other had said.
"Will you listen to me" Yuuta said, beginning to loose patience "I can prove to you that I am the real thing!"
"Yeah, right… sorry kid, I don't like to play the pretending game…"
Yuuta's wings flapped, as he flown towards the stranger. To his surprise, instead of be surprised, he looked at his surroundings.
"Oh, you think that a petty trick can fool me?" The human laughed "This must be a stupid joke of someone with a big imagination… were is the robe?"
Yuuta became completely red, as the human started to touch him, looking for a robe, his shock was too great that he wasn't able to react to it.
The stranger's face became more serious has he wasn't finding anything.
"Where the hell…" his hand went to Yuuta's legs.
That had been too much for the angel. He slapped the businessman in the face.
"ARE YOU AN IDIOT OR SOMETHING!!" he shouted as he gained high, the human fell on his knees, it was impossible that there was a robe at that high, the angel made three mortals and changed directions rapidly. Stopping at the shocked human front.
"Do you believe in me now?" Yuuta asked to the fully opened blue eyes.
"This is… impossible…" the human mumbled.
"Yes it is… you are not supposed to see me." Yuuta added, taking a little joy of the panicked face of the man that he had took so much time to convince.
"You are not… I must be dreaming." Yuuta laughed at the slap that the man gave in his own face.
"It is not a dream… but it's not possible either…" Yuuta made a serious and pondered face "So try to cooperate okay…"
The man looked at the angel and bounced his head in agreement.
"Now… can you take me to someplace where we can talk in private…"
He took the angel down of the roof by the back stairs… Trying to go to his office, on the 11th floor, without meeting anyone.
'I can't believe this is happening!' the human looked to the boy with wings, next to him 'This is insane! But I am sure that I didn't drink…'
He opened the door, there was three employs in the hallway.
'Great, now this is going to spread in my office that I am into kids now.' The human though sadly. He was about to open the door to the angel pass but…
Yuuta went right next to him, passing thru the wall.
The human didn't move a muscle, staring with an idiotic look to the angel, with the door open.
A female employ passed by him, thanking him for opening the door for her, he stared at her.
"Hum… I can explain this" the human started, but the employ looked at him with a funny look.
"What are you talking about, sir?" the female asked, confuse.
"Hum? Can't you see… it?" the human pointed to Yuuta that mumbled "Now he calls me a thing…"
"What is it that I am supposed to see? Is there something on the wall?" The employ asked to his superior.
"I told you, I am not supposed to be seen by humans…" Explained Yuuta "You don't need to concern about others seeing me, this is weird enough for you to see me..."
"Are you ok, Mr. Mizuki san?" the employ asked to Mizuki, receiving a desperate look in his dark blue eyes.
"Oh, nothing… I am just a little tired… I will just rest a little in my office, make sure that nobody disturbs me." He concluded, walking toward his office, the last door of the hallway.
"Okay sir." The employ responded before Mizuki disappeared behind the door.
Yuuta passed once again by the wall. He had a concern look in his young face. He looked to the human.
"What is your full name?"
"Hajime Mizuki." Answered Mizuki.
"Oh no! This is more serious that I thought!" Yuuta scratched his head, nervously "You are my target!"
"Target?" Mizuki looked to Yuuta with suspicion "What do you mean with target?"
"… argg, it slipped…" Yuuta looked to Mizuki nervously "I… am not suppose to tell you about your death…"
"Death!?" Mizuki opened his eyes to the full, approaching Yuuta "Am I gonna die?"
Yuuta was in panic, he had said too much, but now he had to tell everything, Mizuki was looking directly at him.
'Even if I escape I have to stay with him to complete the mission…Well, this is going to be a shock…'
Yuuta cleared his throat.
"I am a guardian angel from heaven, sent to earth to help the "World Watcher" to make concerning if your soul is worth saving or not… You have three months of life starting for today… I know this must be damaging news for you as a human, but…" Yuuta looked to Mizuki, thinking that the businessman would have probably a sorrowful, or panicked face by now.
But Mizuki was hearing, looking just a little surprised.
"Hum… I just said that you are going to die in three months…" Yuuta repeated, but Mizuki had the same expression.
"Okay…" Mizuki responded with the same face "Well, Everyone has to someday…"
Yuuta's face dropped in astonishment.
"Hum?? Aren't you sad or concerned?? Are you too shocked to react?"
"Hum…well, I am rather surprised. I wasn't expecting to die so soon, but everyone dies at some point, at least I will not have to be old and depend on people." Mizuki turned away, sitting on the chair, in front of his wooden varnished desk "At least I will die in healthy surroundings."
Yuuta was too shocked to speak. So Mizuki continued.
"Oh, and you said that your mission was to see if my soul can be saved or not... Well, no need for more trouble, I am definitely not heaven material." He smiled at the blasphemed look that Yuuta had "I am a cold and mean owner of the Mizuki's computers industry, I don't care who I smash to win in business and have no regrets about it. So you can already send the "reproved" letter to your boss of yours and save the trouble.
Yuuta finally started to move his lips, which were trembling from the human's speech.
"I… I can't do that!!" he shouted "I have to watch over you too see that for myself."
"I do not advise you to do it… You see, my business can be cruel sometimes, I fire employ's almost everyday and ruin a family life or two when I do it.
It's not something for a kid to see."
Mizuki turned of his computer, looking at the monitor, ignoring Yuuta's face looking at him in despair.
"I… I am not a kid! I… am a lot older than you!" he shouted, trying to gain Mizuki's attention. But the human continued to look at the monitor, tapping something on the keyboard with one hand, playing with his hair with another.
Yuuta's face became red of fury, he walked towards the computer and pressed the "off" button. Mizuki's face turned to the angel.
"Is there something else you wish to discuss?" his cold voice asked.
"Yes!! First of all: I am the one who will decide if your soul is good or not; second: How can you have such a relaxed face saying all those things about yourself! This is nuts! If you are such a bad guy, why don't you try to redeem yourself?"
"I am proud of being this way." Mizuki smiled evilly, curling even more his hair with his finger "The good guys always end their lives poor with a bunch of kids, trying to kid themselves that they have a happy filled life when the only thing that they have is a empty and sacrificed life for others. I choose to be different! I am a narcissist, I care only for myself and my well being, and I don't want to share the things that gave me such an effort to win with other person."
Yuuta had an even more furious face.
"Well, I don't believe in you!" he declared "There isn't a single soul that's only evil and there isn't a single soul that's completely pure! That's a part of being a human… I am gonna watch over you, I am gonna follow you 24 hours a day, seven days a week until you die… and although I don't know if I will vote for your salvation… I know that you, like any other human, has a good side!"
Yuuta ended the declaration of war to Mizuki, he had an accelerated breathing, and was completely red.
Mizuki laughed, but he had no teasing in it, smiling after it.
His smile was full of sadness making Yuuta believe even more in his own words.
'He cannot possibly be all evil with a smile like that… It's too emotional for his description of himself.'
Mizuki's hand went to Yuuta's pink cheek. With the same smile he asked:
"So… do you have a name Little angel?"
"Yuuta." The angel answered, his chest was getting hotter and his heart beat accelerated.
'What is this that I am feeling?'
"So, my dear Yuuta-kun, do me a favour…"
Yuuta looked to the businessman dark eyes.
"If I have to wear that kind of girly cloths in heaven, please send me to hell." Mizuki started to laugh happily of his own joke. Yuuta was even more red that he had been a few seconds ago.
"Why you!!!!" He shouted angrily.
"Okay, okay… just kidding. You don't have a sense of humour when you are an angel or something?"
"I have a sense of humour… But that wasn't funny!" Yuuta turned his face to Mizuki.
'Second though… he is the incarnation of evil!!' he though in fury 'This is going to be the worst mission of all.'
