Chapter 14

Fury slowly blinked open her eyes. She saw Strife the Crow father and another man she had never seen before. She tried to sit up but the man gently forced her back down. She looked to Strife with a confused look.

Strife gave her a sad look and looked over to the Crow father.

"Where are-"Fury stopped to cough and covered her mouth with her hand. When it was gone she returned to talking.

"Where are we?" Fury asked.

"You're in one of the many cities of heaven, my dear." The Crow father said. Fury looked around the room a little more and noticed all of the angelic adornments.

"Where is Death and War? Why are we here? Strife?" Fury asked. Strife hesitated to tell her what the Crow father had told them earlier. He met the angel not long ago. His name was Oleg and he had come at the Crow father's request.

"I can feel the darkness inside her, but something else is blocking it. No wonder you weren't able to discover it at first. We need to contain her before it takes over completely." The angel said. Strife glared at him.

"You are not locking my sister up!" Strife growled.

"What? Why are you going to lock me up?" Fury asked, sounding very alarmed.

"Get the-"He didn't finish his sentence when someone kicked him in the head. The angel fell over and Death was standing there. Fury sat up and held onto Strife.

"We're getting out of here. I'll explain everything to you later Fury. Tell anyone and I will kill you old man." Death said. Crow father sighed and nodded. Death ushered the siblings outside and saw War mounted on a horse with three other horses with him.

Bells suddenly sounded and echoed down the streets.

"Get on one!" Death instructed, climbing up onto one. Its mane lit up to a mint color and it roared to life as its skin fell as ashes. Strife immediately mounted one. Its mane lit up to pure white and its coat blazed as bright as the sun at dawn.

"Whoa." Strife whispered. Fury stumbled and climbed onto a horse and ignored it as it changed and galloped after Death, War and Strife.

"Run through the portal!" Death commanded as they rode at full speed down the roads. Fury risked a look over her shoulder and gaped as a huge squad of angels chased after them.

"By the creator…" Fury whispered.
