Notes:
Holy shit I haven't updated this in forever. Sorry about that guys. Anyways I finally have a new chapter for you guys after much delay. Enjoy. Please review, but no hate. This chapter is written in John's point of view by the way.
Angels and Demons: Part 2
I look at my assignment slot, seeing that it seems to have something in it today. It's not every day that I have an assignment, although a lot of days I do. It's pretty good work, especially if it means I get to live in the actual definition of paradise. Living in heaven sure does have its perks, even working as an angel of the big man upstairs.
Oh, I forgot to mention that, didn't I? Well anyways, yes, I am an angel, and yes I do live in heaven. It's not that bad of a lifestyle, even if I do have to work while the human souls here get to goof off and just bask in the joy of living in heaven. I get anything I need and most of what I want is provided as well.
Now where was I? Oh yes the assignment. There's one thing you should know about angels before I continue with that. There are actually many different types and they all have different jobs. There's the guardian angels, which watch over the people and make sure they take care. There are the messenger angels, who deliver messages to others in visions and dreams. And then there's the soul bringing angels, in which I am one myself. There's many more, but those are the main ones.
Anyways, as I was saying, I'm a soul bringing angel (stupid name right? But that's what they named it so who am I to judge?). And as a soul bringing angel, I bring good souls up to heaven to enjoy the place. And apparently I had a new assignment.
As I pull it out, I notice it looks a bit different from my other ones. All it contains is a name and the words: "still alive" printed on it. Still alive? I thought only messengers and guardians got the alive ones. Maybe it's not in the right box. I turn it over and there it says "Assigned to: John Egbert". Well then. That is my name on the back so I guess it is my assignment. But why would he give me something that isn't even a part of my job?
I continue to ponder this while I float back to my home in heaven to retrieve stuff for my assignment. As I float along, lost in thought, I accidently bump into one of my good angel friends. Her name is Jade Harley. She's really kind and sweet. She's also a messenger angel. I decide to ask her about this assignment to see if she knows anything.
"Hey Jade!" I say cheerily, actually quite happy to see her.
"Oh, hi John! I see you've got a new assignment. What is it about?" she asks, giggling a bit and smiling at me with that bubbly smile of hers.
"Well that's actually what I wanted to talk to you about. For some reason, I got somebody who was still alive here."
"Well maybe the boss man has something important planned for you and this person here. Usually everything he does has some kind of plan."
"Yeah I guess you're right. Thanks for the advice."
"It's no trouble! Well I should probably let you get started on that. It looks cool and I'd hate to make you wait longer than you have to to get started. So, bye John!"
"Bye Jade! Talk to you later," I say as I wave goodbye.
She smiles before turning and flying off, towards her own home. I continue towards my place, finally getting to it and entering.
As I enter, I stop to look around. It's not much. Really it's just a bedroom with a place to store my tools and other things I use. Heaven has an assortment of other amazing places, so there really is no reason to have an entire house or anything.
I quickly grab some things I may need before leaving to actually carry out the assignment. I head towards the file room to figure out where to find my assignment. Really the file room is a giant computer room with like a billion screens. On those screens you can search a name and it tells you exactly where that person is at. The room is the main database center basically. Yeah seems pretty high tech for heaven, but tech is what's in these days.
I get to the file room and head to an open terminal, typing in the name on my sheet. It takes a while to pop up, longer than normal. When it does, the coordinates are rather vague. Usually it gives me a precise location, but this time it is just a general area. At least it gives me a picture, although a rather fuzzy one. I can't really make out the details very well, but at least I have a general idea of what I'm looking for.
I leave the file room and head towards the entrance to earth. I'm not sure what this mission is or what it means, but I'm going to retrieve this guy one way or another. I will find Dave Strider.
More Notes:
Yeah I was gonna continue this but I felt this was the perfect place to end this chapter. Hopefully I can get the next one out sooner so you don't have to wait as long. Anyways I hope you enjoyed. Please review!
