Preface

SPOV/IPOV

I always knew that my being sent here would change me forever. I didn't think it would come down to this; to become similar to the humans, to interact, to live, that I was prepared for. The fighting, the lack of rest, the lies and secrets, those I was prepared for as well. However, nothing had prepared me for the love and attachment I would have for these beings… especially not him. I remember looking down on Earth and thinking it would be easy; I realize now that it is not.

I am Saphira, an angel of God, sent to destroy the damage the fallen angel Lucifer and his minions have caused amongst the human race…. the question is….

Can I do it?

Chapter 1

SPOV/IPOV

I flared my wings, their beautiful sapphire-blue coloring seeming almost silver in the moonlight. Below me, a demon had convinced a man to stalk and kill a young woman. I waited for him to pass beneath me in the alley, prepared to swoop down on the demon walking behind him. The sooner I took this demon out, the sooner I could return to Forks, Washington, and my current residence. They passed below, the demon whispering things into the man's ear as he tracked the woman through the alley. As soon as the demon was directly below me, I dove, tackling the demon and trying to kill it with my dagger. I pierced through its heart and it froze, its eyes widening in horror. I gave it one last grim smile of triumph before twisting the knife and sending it back to hell where it belonged. The man jerked suddenly, and realized what he was doing. He quickly turned and ran from the woman, back towards his home. I huffed a sigh of relief and flew back towards my home, having killed at least 17 demons tonight. I soon landed on a tree branch outside my window, folded my wings, and then climbed into my bedroom.

I looked around, hoping that I hadn't woken the man who was supposed to be my dad while I was here on Earth. To my dismay, I heard him shuffling towards my room. I quickly shifted from my angel form, with long black hair and silver eyes and blue wings, into my human form, 17-years-old with brown hair and brown eyes. I made my wings disappear just as Charlie walked in the door, a sleepy look on his face.

"You okay in here Bells?" he asked, looking around. I noticed he had a bat in his left hand. "I thought I heard a thud." He explained.

"Yeah, I'm fine Char- dad," I said, almost forgetting my cover. "I just thought it was too warn and tried to open the window, and I stumbled." Charlie seemed to think I was an extremely clumsy person, so I went along with it, trying to keep my cover. He just nodded, mumbled something that kind of sounded like "…more careful…" and headed back towards his room, probably half-asleep before he even reached his bed. Soon I heard his soft snores, and heaved a sigh of relief. I walked over to my bed, grabbed my laptop, and spent the rest of my night surfing the web and learning human ways in preparation for school tomorrow.

A/N: So, what did you think? Please review, I wanna know how it is…
