CHAPTER 3 PEOPLE! Hope you love it!
I do not own Hetalia, the characters, HetaOni, or Ao Oni!
I am considered an angel because once I get all of my magic I become an angel. I am also considered a fallen angel because I am here as a person and because I am an impure angel and that's why I'm here on Earth. Now any heir of Satan can come to Earth as well but I have never known or heard of any heir and now he was right in front of me. The pressure made my heart stop and my chest started to hurt from it. He was in his most powerful form and for some reason I could not get into mine. I was close to believing that this is how I would die, killed by the spawn of Satan….. No joke.
He laughed. "Do I really bring such a strong atmosphere that it makes you shake?"
I noticed that I was shaking and I instantly tried to calm down. There was a very slim chance that I could even land a hit on this person let alone defeat him. Before I could think anymore, the others surrounded me.
"You will not lay a hand on him." It was Italy. "I don't care who you are, we're getting out from your grip here, now and forever."
He laughed again. "Don't care? Well you better if it makes your strongest person here shake in his boots. He's the only one that can save you and he's frozen in place."
I shook my head, I needed to pull myself together. "Leave them alone. This fight is just between you and me. Let them go."
"I'm afraid I can't do that. Sure they have nothing to do with this fight, but they need you. That's the rules."
Now I was getting irritated. "Then I'll end this fight and get them out. Your life will not be spared."
He snickered. "Hang on now. If you get angry, you won't be able to transform. You'll turn into a devil, just like me."
Of course I knew that but it's not like if I did turn into a devil, that I'd stay that way. I can't even stay in my angel form. Just for grins I calmed down and went through the crowd of other countries surrounding me.
"England! What are you…?"
I turned to America who had just spoken. "I've got this. Stay back and I'll do what I can."
The devil nodded. "Good, you're facing me like a man."
I faced him. "Let's just get this over with."
He smirked and unfolded his wings. "Oh it will be over, in a manner of minutes. Just stand there so I can make this easy."
He attacked but just a few seconds before he did, I started focusing my magic and I finally got into my angel form. My bright white wings unfolded and I jumped before impact. Since this was a battle, my form chose to change my green military uniform into white. Now the only bad thing about this is that in this mansion I was still a mortal person and if I got hit, the blood would show through. Surprised at the sudden movement, the Devil turned around and faced me.
"Nice little trick there, coward."
"Protecting my friends is not being a coward, in fact it's the exact opposite."
"Whatever. Soon you'll all be dead. But I'll kill you first angel, so you don't have to watch."
Now in this form I no longer needed my wand. It was because I was too strong for it anymore so I could conduct magic without a wand. He attacked again and I counterattacked with a blast of magic and knocked him into the wall behind him. All was looking well so far but I don't know how long the order would work in my favor. I kept the attack going but soon, using my magic wore me down and I'm sure that the Devil had more energy than I did. Then that's when the tables turned. I was the one being thrown around and being attacked. It was a hopeless effort to try and keep avoiding the attacks, he was just too fast right now. I shielded attacks the best I could but it didn't do much. After a few more throws, he threw me one more time and stood on top of my chest so I couldn't get up.
"You're pathetic. I could do this all day but it's all very boring. How about I just end it now?"
I was too short of breath to answer or give off a nasty comment. The Devil smirked. "I'll take that as a yes." He summoned a sword and I knew I had to move but I still hadn't caught my breath and he was still on me so I would have to be extremely strong and fast about it. The Devil raised his sword and brought it down and I moved just in time.
The Devil gritted his teeth. "You squirmy thing. I'll cut off your wings so you can't move that quickly anymore."
I got off the ground, and made a good distance between my enemy and me. This was proving to be more difficult than expected but that's what I get for underestimating. My back hurt from being thrown against walls but otherwise okay. I thought that now since I was up and could actually move, things would get better….. How wrong I was. My enemy found it fit to keep his sword out so I had to be extra careful not to get cut by it. He attacked and I dodged, but then I was stuck in a rapid-fire, close-combat, battle and it was difficult dodging all of the strikes. I accidently didn't dodge quickly enough so the sword grazed my side and began to bleed immediately. The blood was noticeable through the white clothing and the Devil noticed it right away.
"Finally, I got you. Prepare yourself for death, angel."
The pain was worse than I thought and the continuous throb made matters worse. I placed a hand over the wound in hopes that some pressure would stop the bleeding. I still hadn't used the full extent of my powers but I didn't think I would need to go that far. But now that seemed like something I would need to do.
The Devil attacked again and I barley dodged. This wound was slowing me down, even if it was small, it was deep. It didn't know if this would be the only wound I got in the next few minutes because I was becoming extremely slow. While I was thinking things through, the Devil slammed me against the wall behind me. He pointed the sword at my face.
"It's all over. Now say good bye, you didn't even put up a good fight."
I gritted my teeth but then noticed something dripping off of his sword. Some of the liquid was red, my blood no doubt, and the other liquid was…. Black. I stared at the liquid.
The Devil must have noticed because he grinned. "You should know what this is. After all, this is what all demons use to eliminate angles."
I froze. I indeed knew what this was, and this concerned me even more. I needed to move and fast if I wanted to live.
"This is poison from the Serpent in the underworld. Once it comes into contact with an open wound, it infects the entire body except if it comes into contact with the enemy. Luckily it doesn't affect me. It's extremely fatal to humans but it takes a little longer to kill an angel with."
I had to move, and fast before I started to feel the first symptoms of the poison. Right now the only thing I could move were my legs so I kneed the Devil in the chest then kicked him a good couple of feet away. In the process, the Devil dropped his sword. I quickly ran over and picked up the sword while he was still gaining back his balance.
Once he noticed that I had his sword he laughed. "Weren't you listening? I said that it didn't affect me!"
I smirked. "I know, but that doesn't mean I can't beat the crap out of you with just the blade."
The Devil growled. "Oh ho, getting violent now are we?"
"If it's to protect my friends, then yes."
"Then bring it. I have a whole immortal life to end this when you're still stuck in my trap of a mortal body. Even in your angel form."
"So you were the one that lead Italy to the rumors of this place!"
"Indeed I was. I was desperately seeking your destruction but the others kept getting in the way and so did that stupid journal so that's why I targeted your precious friend. The others were also in the way so I also got rid of them."
"HOW DARE YOU! Seeking for my demise is one thing but killing my friends to get to me is another!"
"Oh no, I'm so scared. I'd like to see you even take me down, today please."
I scowled. I really hated this guy. But if drastic measures were needed, I would use them. I swung a strike at the Devil with the sword and missed miserably. This thing was a lot heavier than it appeared to be. I picked up the sword and held it correctly. Perfect form and timing like Japan would be the only thing that would get a hit on him.
The Devil laughed. "If you can't swing that sword, then it's useless to you. Why don't you just give it back now?"
I glared and stood in perfect form, waiting for him to come and try to take back his sword. Luckily, it worked. He quickly moved and came towards me with the intentions of a strike. I waited a few seconds then thrust the sword, putting my whole body into the thrust. I turned around after the strike to face my enemy. I still had the sword so obviously something had happened. He also turned around. I had gotten a hit, he had a large gash across his right arm.
Despite this he still laughed. "Barely felt it. After all, I can get into my immortal state."
I started getting ready for the next attack when I felt awfully dizzy…. The poison! I had totally forgotten. This was the first symptom. I lost my balance and had to use a wall to support me standing. The Devil noticed and grinned.
"Finally, now you are in no position to fight."
"ENGLAND!"
I looked over and saw America. The others had been watching, thinking the same thing I did. I thought I had this battle under control, but it was now quite clear that I was losing. He had a worried look on his face and tears in his eyes.
"Don't give up now! Your life is the one at stake so fight for it!"
I knew he was right so I tried to stand up the best I could. This is where this fight got violent so I had to at least try and defend myself. Moving moved the poison around a little bit faster so this was going to be a battle that had to end quickly. But how? I was still shaking when I stood up because now that my strength was being drained, it was hard to do everything. The sword had gained twenty pounds and it barely kept off the ground. I didn't really need the weapon, but using what I had first would save my magic for the time being. If I did this right, it would even out the odds a little.
"You're pathetic. Quit fighting, we're in my domain meaning I have the upper hand. A pure being surrounded by darkness is always soon to fall."
"Yes, that's what I've heard. But it's also said that whoever spills the blood of an angel is cursed for life."
Just then he froze and gritted his teeth. "So you evened out the odds, eh? Use a curse to take away my advantage? Fine I'll still beat you in this mortal state you have put me in."
Yaaay! Anyways, I would really like to hear your opinion of my devil. I would LOVE reviews in general! Thanks~!
