Prologue

"Hey, do you promise?"

"Promise what?"

The girl smiled, "We'll meet again right?"

"Yeah."

Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock. Her vision was all blurred, the only sound she heard was tick tock, her body ached, blood was flowing uncontrollably. She wondered what was happening. Her eyes felt heavy, she felt herself slipping away. And yet she only thought of... him; the one person who would remember her. As the seconds drifted by she felt her memories slip away. She began to count down. 3, "Hey, do you promise?" 2, "Promise what?" 1, "We'll meet again right?" 0.

He stood there watching as the mere child bled, he watched as the blood flowed from her body, deciding what he should do. He was no angel, he did not save every human being who he came across dying. However, as he watched the girl slip away he noticed the smile on her face. How can a child so close to death be smiling?

He approached her, crouching down to her level and placed a hand to her heart. He felt it slowing down. He counted the beats; 1, 2...

As if she felt his presence, her eyes slowly opened to look at him. Suddenly, tears formed on her eyes, yet she still had a smile on her face.

"Are... you..." she whispered,"Angel?" Her eyes closed.

What a silly little girl. Angels didn't exist and if they did, it certainly wasn't him. He gave the young girl a hard stare and he finally asked,"Do you want to live?"

As if the words had no meaning to her, she cracked open her eyes again.

"Live?" she managed.

"I can help you," he said while observing the flowing blood.

She let out a little laugh,"No." Her eyes shut again and he watched her for a little bit, waiting to see if she'd open her eyes again. She didn't. At that moment, he decided. He would save her. He pushed his hand forward and said,"Room."

He clenched his fists together, cutting open his skin and making his hands bleed. His eyes narrowed as he glared hard at his comrade. Parts of his body started to turn into flames as his anger started to increase and as the information sank in.

"Is it really true?"

"Yeah, one of our men saw it with their own eyes."

"It was the marines?"

His comrade nodded.

"Damnit to hell, damn the marines. Damn all of them. How dare they?"

"Aye, you need to-"

"DAMNNNNNNNN!" he screamed as an explosion of flames shot up into the sky, attracting the attention of everyone in the vicinity.

The doctor watched curiously as her breathing stabilized. In and out, in and out. This child had somehow compelled him to help her. Maybe it was just one of his whims but he felt like his choice was good and bad. He had saved her life, if he hadn't then at the second, she would be dead right now.

It's been a week since he saved her, her body is taking a long time to recuperate, it seemed normal since she was just a child. As he stood against the wall with his arms crossed, the monitor started beeping, indicating something was wrong. He looked and noticed that her heart beats are going out of control. He didn't move and simply watched as the beads of sweat rolled down her face. After minutes of the constant beeping, it stopped and her heart beats stabilized again. This wasn't any different from any other time it happened, except this time, her eyes flew open. Big, purple eyes.. purple eyes.. a sign of Alexandria Genesis. What a peculiar little girl.

Her eyes shot frantically around the room, taking in her surroundings. Meanwhile, he continued to observe her. Her eyes finally rested upon him and the first word she said was,"Angel." Her little voice enveloped the entire room, bringing a kind of serenity into the air.

He raised an eyebrow, wondering why she kept saying that to him. They both stared at each other for awhile longer and she broke the silence,"Spade." With that final word, she shut her eyes once again.-
