Chapter 7: Angel's Secret (part 2)

Here is the next!

Zeta's POV

As Lass suggested, I went to Mari's lab. Then I noticed that her lab was the only laboratory in this mansion. Then I remembered to knock first. I waited for a moment, but no response from the inside. So I took a good look at the door. There was a notice said that Mari was at Training Room 3. No time to waste, I got myself into the mentioned place. There I found Mari.

"Mari, do you have a moment?" I asked.

"Oh, Zeta. Good timing, I am going to test these new machines." she answered me, smiled.

Selena's POV

I felt so tired and I slammed my room's door then I jumped to my bed. I fell asleep as soon as I buried my head on my pillow.

On my dream, but I didn't realize it.

I heard someone calling my name, "Selena!" he said. I thought it was Zeta, not because I missed him, but it really sounded like him. I got a little shock as I faced him.
"I knew you would be here." the one called my name, a male angel said.

I looked around and found myself on Heaven's Garden on near my favorite tree. I didn't realize it before. After some times to think, I answered him, "Don't be so friendly. You know me. Or maybe you want me to give you some troubles." I smirked.

"Hahaha, just like you, Selena." he said.

"Oh, well. You still come near me even after got into trouble I make." I said.

"You said that! I like your way to give me troubles."

"Heh, you're so weird, Zeck."

Let me explained about him. He was one of male angels on the heaven. His appearance just like as usual angels, a pair of white wings, an angel halo, short hair that colored like my hair, can't help it every one here have that hair color, and he has ocean-blue eyes. I wanted that eye color, but we can't change it. Oh, yeah, one more, he is my best friend. If you misread it as 'boyfriend', I'll hunt you and stake you with my Holy Spears.

"Any others angels get angry at me each time they got trouble." I continued.

"That's for them, not for me right? Oh, yeah, almost forgot. You're being called by the council." Zeck said.

'The council? I think I remember something.' I thought. Ah, yeah, council is an organization on Heaven that maintains peace. Council consisted of high-level angels, such as Gabriel and the others.

"I just hope you won't be disciplined by them." Zeck said.

"Hahaha. I hope so." I replied with a pale face. Being disciplined by older angel is still better than by the council.

And so I went to the council. There I could see all high-level angels. I gulped; I was scared if they really wanted to discipline me. But my fear had proven wrong. They smiled as I enter the court like room on the council.

"Selena Soldes." one of them called me.

"Yes." I replied and froze.

"We has examined for this month, the human world got some kind of disturbance. We has discussed this matter and concluded that we must send down one of the angels." the other one said.

"Human world? Sent down? What do this matter connected with me?" I asked.

"We know that you like to create some troubles." one another said. I felt like some arrows hit my heart.

"But we reconsider it if you accept this mission, going to Human World and examine the source." that high-level angel said.

"I don't know if I can." I said; I stared at the floor.

"We also know that you've the most powerful mana here. And you can use our forbidden spell." the first one talking said.

"Forbidden spell? You mean-" I realized but got my line got cut.

"Right. But you must promise us not to use it. It has a devastating side effect. Its power itself also too powerful" the others said.

"I swear I won't use it." I made my promise; this promise became oath when facing the council.

As soon as I went out of the council, I realized that this was the time before I went to human world. I also realized that this was only a dream of my last time on heaven. Before I tried to wake up, I heard someone talking.

"Being disciplined, eh?" one of the female angels said.

"Sorry to disappoint you. I got an important mission." I told her back. She made a mad expression on her face.

"Selena! You must go to human world?" Zeck asked me.

"What? Why did you know this?" I asked.

"I was called to the council before. They asked me whether I know some high powered angels." he said.

"So you included my name?" I asked back.

"Sorry, I don't know if they want some name as candidate to be sent to human world." he said.

"Don't worry. I just got bored recently. Maybe I could refresh my mind on human world" I said.

"Really? Not mad at me?"

"Just the opposite, I want to say thank you."

"Hey Zeck, what have you done to her? You seem so close with her." one of his friends whispered.

"Hey I could hear that! Get ready to taste my Holy Lance!" I screamed him. He ran away before I could cast my spell.

"Hahaha. When will you go?" Zeck asked.

"ASAP. I'm bored here." I said as I walked to Heaven Portal.

"Be careful." he said.

"Okay, until we meet again." I bid my farewell.

I woke up and I looked at the clock and it said it was the time for dinner. I didn't know if I became a sleepy head these days. I went to Dining Room to have dinner.

Zeta's POV, while Selena still sleeping

I unsheathed my sword to try Mari's new gadget. But I felt killing intend from my back. I quickly turned myself and block the upcoming slash. I examined the attacker, it was Zero and he attacked me with his Grandark.

"What are you doing?" I asked him.

"..." Zero not answering.

"So weird. Suddenly attacked me and spread killing intend like that." I said.

"So my doubt was right. You're one of those weird monsters. More over you're the two souled one back then." Grandark said.

'What did he just said? Weird monsters? Two souled one?' I though, confused.

'Maybe the day you killed your own comrade. Just switch with me. I can use all my power on him.' Razer said to me.

"Better not going out you beast!" Grandark said.

"What!" I screamed, "You could hear Razer?"

"What are you talking about Grand? I didn't remember I had met him." Zero asked. He still readied in his stance to kill me.

"You don't need to remember. We must kill him anyway." Grandark said.

"I don't want to hurt my friend. But, if you want to kill me, I won't give in so easily." I said and readied my full power.

I rushed to him and our swords clashed several time. Those clashes created loud sounds. I saw Mari. She was just watching us, maybe she enjoys our fight.

Sieghart's POV

I was sleeping on the Lounge and then I heard metals clashing with the others. I woke up and search for its origin.

'What the hell! Just who are the one disturbing my sleep.' I thought.

I went into the Training Room which that sounds originated and I saw Zeta and Zero tried to hit each other. I also felt killing intend from Zero. I hurried butt in the fight.

Zeta's POV

'Darn it. Why should my old enemy appear here? I also thought him as my friend already.' I though.

As I and Zero attacked each other, Sieghart came and used both of his rapiers to parry each of our attacks and stopped us from fighting.

"What the hell are you two doing!" he said with angry voice, "Zeta is already our friend, why are you tried to kill him!"

"It's none of your business." Zero said, sheathed Grandark and went away.

"Good thing I came here. Now those noises disappeared, I can continue sleeping." he said.

"You can't. The time for that already came." Mari said.

"Already? Oh well. I'll stay here." he said.

"What? What will happen?" I asked, got no answer.

I only noticed each one of Grand Chase members came into the Training Room. I was confused. Then Mari told me.

"We noticed that the battle with Sieghart can't tell your true power, so we decided to see it with my new gadget." she explained.

I nodded and saw at Zero. Zero was not respond to my action, it looked like nothing has happened.

'If he doesn't want to kill me again, then I'll let that event pass by. I don't have time for my past.' I thought.

"Now I'll use my full power without holding back. I hope I can fulfill your wishes." I said and began attacking counter-attacking-doll gadget made by Mari.

Surely I got hit a little, but I destroyed it before I should go to infamy or some kind of medic room. After I finished, Jin said something that reminded us.

"Hey, Selena isn't here. Where has she been?" Jin asked.

Some chasers got angry expression and threw their faces away.

"Hey, what's the matter?" I asked.

They seemed to be angry about Selena. I thought I know why as I went into some hardship when in Xenia Continent with her.

And so when dinner time came, Selena got tied by Ryan. He, Ronan and Lire came near her, readied to 'eat' her. The situation came to the worst when Selena confessed even about Jin that made Jin readied to 'eat' her also. I only chuckled saw this. Elesis, Arme, and Lass didn't mind when they heard about her dragged out Elesis to Dining Room when Arme and Lass enjoyed Cherry Pie. Maybe they had been accustomed to it even without Selena involved.

Selena's POV

I had only found out that human, no, Grand Chase members are so scary when they mad. They planned to not feeding me for this night. I sighed and held my tears. I was tied. My lip was nearly broken because they pulled it so hard. When in heaven, there is no punishment like this. From now, I must be carefull if I wanted to toy them.

"Am I really not having a meal?" I asked.

"Of course not!" Ryan said; he glared at me followed by Ronan, Lire and also Jin.

Cold run through my spine. I really felt sorry this day.

After they finished dinner, they went back to their rooms except Arme, Amy and Zeta. They released me from the tie and gave me remnant of their meal. I cried in joy and ate them with many thanks for them.

"Oh, heaven. I still can eat meal this night." I murmured.

Then I saw smiles on their faces. I blushed and ran away to my room. Before I exited Dining Room, I said my thanks to them which made me more blushed.

Third Person's POV

"So, she still has some good side." Zeta said.

"Right, I don't think she toys the other without reason." Arme said.

"She's so cute. I want to have a chat with her someday." Amy said cheerfully.

And they went to their bed after bid farewell each other.

note:

Grandark is a magical thing, so I think he could hear Razer's voice if he focused his attention. He also has 'eye' that I think could see the souls (as he is magical thing).

Selena's friend is not Zeta's father, if you had read Zeta's past. It's only I couldn't find any good new name.
