They headed down to the house after the sun had gone up, no demons had been seen nor any other monsters. It was such a nice day, the birds in the distance flew to tree to tree while squirrels scurried around.
The house was caked in dust, there was chandelier when you walked in and a stair case that led up stairs. They walked down the hallway where there was a door that lead into a bathroom, then a couch with chairs then there was a rusted push door. The floor boards creaked under the pressure and the girl said, "It's been abandoned, before the fire started…"
The girl grabbed Leo's hand and swung him to the ground as Leo heard a gunshot. He looked up to see a couple demons coming at them. They haven't even saw the entire house. She pulled me farther away as Leo threw a chair at them to back them off, the ran out the back door before the entire thing caught on blaze, they jumped over the stone fence into the garden smashing some flowers.
Leo saw some demons fly out of the windows, wolves onto of the roof, growling and biting demons who were on top. Leo forgot about the demons, and how they caught the building on ablaze.
"I forgot, Leo. I forgot this, this chaos." The girl said apologizing.
Leo set a hand on her shoulder, "We should go."
She nodded as they heard more screams of the demons, and the cries of the creatures. The fire crackling, smoke going up to the sky making the clouds darker.
"It was late fall when it burnt down," she said in pain, "I saw it in the distance where our car drove off, I remember nothing but the clouds darkening. The sky snowing, helping the fire calm down."
She leaned against Leo in pain and wrapped her arms in coldness. Leo didn't know what to say or do, he just followed the girls footsteps. He wish he had something to say, something to make her fell less guilty.
"How much longer till Breena found you?" asked Leo after a long walk in silence, the trees thickening.
"Less than three weeks, I lived in Oakville, West Virginia." She said, "The thing about time is we can direct ourselves through it now. We can travel through it."
It all rushed at them as they walked, then they were in a different place. Different time. A small cottage with a small pond stood in front of them, "Welcome to my second home."
Two people stood on the bridge, Leo squinted to try to see them. The girl pushed them behind a tree, just as one of them looked up.
"Hey! What was that for?" Leo said in annoyance.
"Look, if we get seen by the past then that could change the entire universe. We have to be careful," she whispered quietly, looking around the tree.
Leo nodded and did the same, there was a tiny girl who held a fishing rod and a small tackle box. Was she about to fish? And the other looked like she just woke up. What was going on?
"Can you hear them?" asked Leo quietly, he said it almost like a whisper.
"The really small one is me, the other one is Breena when she was young." She said.
"The little ones hair is just blonde though, how can your hair be blonde when it has navy and sky blue?" whispered Leo, he had more questions pilling up.
"That's why Breena went back to fix it, my hair wouldn't be this color nor would I be a…" she couldn't finish her sentence.
"Wait, you're a demon?" Leo looked away and at the girl.
"No, not even close." Answered the girl. "We'll have to wait out three days."
"Three days?" Leo said, "Can't we just travel through time again."
"No, then we can't get home. There's a limit to everything." She said climbing up the tree.
…
Three slow days passed as they stayed in the trees, watching, waiting and talking.
"What do you think Alex and Isabelle are doing?" asked Leo eating some crackers, leaning on the trunk of the tree.
She shrugged as she balanced on the branch, "Probably finding a way to get us back, maybe a fight a few demons. Find that coward Blake."
"Oh that guy! I remember him, what's so wrong with him?" Leo stuffed a cracker into his mouth and put his coat over his shoulders.
"He's a murderer, loves to travel through time. Usually messes it up, making the world the worst place ever. Only idiots follow him, hunters try to kill him all the time but he's very tricky. He's trying to open a door to both paranormal worlds and the human world." She said picking a leaf off the branch next to her and inspecting it.
"What will happen if he does?" asked Leo zipping the bag back up and setting it into his backpack that hung on the branch next to him.
"Chaos. Complete chaos. Humanity will see these demons, they will scatter, run. Most will get killed, then when the demons take over than humanity will vanish. No more humans, no more hunters. Only blood. It will be the age of bloodshed, and not even hunters and huntresses can stop it." She concluded, "Well at least that's what I think will happen."
"Interesting, very." Leo said in complete memorization. He scratched his chin and thought to himself. The girl looked over as the day had vanished into day, Leo looked through the leaves and saw the smaller girl hanging her feet off the dock.
"How deep is that pond?" Leo whispered moving some leaves so he could see better.
"Drowning deep." The girl whispered back, she began to climb down slowly trying not to attack any attention.
Leo followed and looked behind the trunk, the younger Breena girl appeared from the trees and walked out onto the dock. Leo heard rustling come from his right, a figure appeared and had yet not noticed them.
Leo poked the girl and put his finger to his lip, then pointed in the direction of the rustling where the figure was. The girl nodded and they both slowly moved towards the figure, it stopped and looked around. They hit the ground and began to army crawl towards the figure. The figure moved forward and Leo caught its foot, and it fell to the ground. The girl grabbed the other foot and began to drag it closer into the trees.
The girl jumped on top of the figure, and Leo heard it growl. Leo did the same and pinned it down, the figure fought and tried to get away.
"Stop it!" it yelled, the girl put her hand over its mouth.
"Breena! Shut up!" the girl harshly whispered, to the person.
"I need to fix it, Ra-" Breena started.
"No." the girl's name start with an R. one step closer.
Leo looked up and saw a man walk down the bridge. He held something shinning, then a gunshot was heard. This time, it wasn't the girl. Leo saw the little girl fall into the water, the young version of Breena thrust towards the man. Screaming, yelling, crying. The man disappeared and appeared on the other side of young Breena.
The Breena under us surged forward trying desperately, to fix this. She roared and threw the girl at the tree, knocking her out. She ran down the hill and Leo knew what he had to do, he bolted to his feet and ran at the girl and grabbed just in time. None of the people on the dock seeing them.
"Let go!" she whispered, "I swear-"
"Stop Breena-" Leo began.
A small feather fell down, it was as white as snow. It showed greatly then it disappeared into the pond, Breena underneath Leo crying. He felt the small tears soaking into his shirt.
The pond lit up and a small outline formed on the dock, the man was gone. The girl ran to the small outline, and kneeled down. A glistening tear ran down young Breena's cheek.
There was small, white angel wings on the outline, her hair was blonde with sky blue going into navy. She was an angel.
"She's an angel?" Leo said under his breath, he was in aww. Complete.
"Angelus lapsus," Breena underneath Leo said, "A fallen angel. The only one ever to exist."
Leo was left in a cliff hanger.
