Gabriel
I stood on the edge of the lawn, invisible to humans. I watched her house, Israfel's house. Her mom sat at a table, Israfel's friend, Chloe I think it was, sat next to her. Both of them were in tears and I noticed a detective talking to them. Sighing, I turned and walked along the stone sidewalk.
"Spying, aren't we?" Zachariah's voice chuckled.
"Wouldn't you know," I replied, turning around to face him.
"Come on, Gabriel, we can protect Israfel," Zachariah said, staring at the house.
"From who? Last time I checked, you were the ones after her!"
"Well, I could kill her family. Then what will you do? The girl will try to get away after knowing that."
"You touch them, you die. That is final."
"What happened to that humor, Gabriel?"
"This isn't a joking situation!"
"Why do you care so much, anyway?" Zachariah walked forward, being cautious not to be so close.
"I... I'm on the humans side?" I lied. I was on the humans side... At least now I am. Though, that wasn't what this was about.
"That can't be entirely true, can it?" Zachariah laughed, turning around again to face the house.
"It is. How did you find me, anyway?" I asked, pulling an angel blade from my jacket.
"We were watching the family when you strolled in. Now, you don't need that blade, do you?"
"I don't know, why don't you give me a reason?"
"Well, I guess it is time to end this talk. You hand over the girl soon, or we'll find ways to take her by force," Zachariah growled, disappearing.
Why was he so set on finding her? What was the big gain? I knew there was something different about her and I'm pretty sure Zachariah does too, but why? Well, I need to be more careful, that was a close call. At least he didn't try anything, I mean, I'm an archangel. What is he? A regular angel. I could smoke him whenever I wanted.
