Good Omens:

It is the coming of the End Times; the Apocalypse is near, and Final Judgment will soon be cast on the human race. This comes as a bit of bad news to the angel Kurama and the demon Yusuke, the respective representatives of God and Satan on Earth, as they've actually got quite used to living their cozy, comfy lives and, in a perverse way, actually like humanity. As such, since they're both good friends (despite supposedly being polar opposites, representing Good and Evil as they do), they decide to work together to postpone the Apocalypse and preserve humanity (and their current lifestyle) as we know it.

I don't own YYH or Good Omens. They belong to a lot of brilliant people, who all have more money than I do.


It was a bright and sunny day.

Not exactly the right conditions for evil-doers to be lurking about, doing misdeeds or other stereotypical what-have-you, but Yusuke didn't mind so much.

He wasn't exactly a stereotypical demon.

Coming up on the swarthy looking bunch huddled in a dark little alleyway, the designated meeting place, he cracked a grin, waving at his fellow demons in greeting.

"All hail Satan," they announced in somber unison.

"Eh…hey there," he answered back, grin falling slightly at the cliché greeting.

Not a stereotypical demon at all.

-Meanwhile-

Kurama was an angel.

Not someone who was merely innocent or pure, but an actual winged-haloed angel, though he usually kept those things out of sight. (The term 'he' is the one applied here, because even though angels tend to be sexless and typically androgynous, the English language offers very little in the way of non-gender specific personal pronouns…and Kurama prefers men's dress clothes to women's.)

Kurama was an angel, and he was bored.

It wasn't that he had nothing to do; it was more like the things available to do were all boring. As an angel stationed on earth, he had few entertainment options open to him, and by now he'd covered most everything that sounded even remotely interesting…except for one.

That one bit of entertainment left to him wasn't exactly legal by moral standards, but so far nobody had made a fuss about the little meetings he had with Yusuke.

Heaven had to keep a tab on Hell, after all.

Which is why he was here now, waiting on the demon to meet him at this sidewalk café.

He was going to be late again…but it had been that way since Eden.


Mostly just a start...I have some more of the story planned out, but I'm not sure if the premise is good enough to even bother continuing.

Review if you've got any comments/criticism. Getting feedback is the only way I'll get better at this writing thing...

Oh, and if you've not read Good Omens, I seriously reccomend you do so. Its a fabulous read that will keep you entertained for a pretty good long time.
