Angels
"NoseDive!" He looked conscious, buried under those bottles. Close to panic, WildWing ran to him. "NoseDive, talk to me! What happened?" NoseDive's eyes were strangely unfocused, and his face was slack. WildWing pulled him to his feet, looked him in his eyes. "NoseDive?"
NoseDive's face contorted into panic. "Get away from me!" He shrieked, shoving WildWing backward. WildWing looked stunned, half by Dive's reaction, and half by the fact NoseDive had actually manage to shove him backward. NoseDive just wasn't naturally that strong. WildWing picked Dive up, and pinned him against the wall.
"NoseDive look at me! Look at me!" Wing slammed him against the wall, a little harder then he meant to as Dive's head hit the wall with a sickening crack. Dive's eyes became suddenly focused, and the terror on his face changed to confusion.
"WildWing? What happened what's going on? Where'd she go? And the bear thing that grabbed me and was holding me like…you are now." NoseDive turned his head, and looked at Wing oddly. WildWing set him on the ground. The four ducks behind him exchanged looks of confusion and worry.
"NoseDive, what happened?"
"Did you see her WildWing?"
"See who?"
"The girl duck! The one with the wings."
"Sit down NoseDive and tell me exactly what happened." NoseDive sat on the edge of one of the tables and took a deep breath.
"She was standing right over there in the corner by the er…" he looked at the bottles now spilled all over the floor and shrugged. "By the medicine cabinet. She was the most beautiful thing WildWing! She had long black hair that fell down to her waist. And brilliant green eyes! The were so green Wing, just like the ocean! She was in this brilliant purple dress and red violet boots. And she had these light blue wings! Just like those pictures of Angel's mom had all over the house when we were little." WildWing's eyes widened.
"Get some sleep NoseDive, you look tired. I'll be back to talk to you in about an hour." With that he ushered the other ducks out. When the door swished shut behind them, WildWing removed the mask. He looked pale, and rather shaken. Like NoseDive had just told him he had cancer or something.
"WildWing? You okay?" Mallory asked.
"No I'm not."
"Well what's the matter?" Duke asked, leading them back to the ready room. When they'd all taken a seat, WildWing shifted uncomfortably.
"It's about what NoseDive said. Actually, a bedtime story my mom used to talk about. The Legend of the Four Angels." The reaction of each duck was distinctly different from the others. Mallory's eyes widened in surprise, and confusion. Grin looked up at WildWing for the first time, understanding etched on all his features. Duke dropped the soda he'd been holding, and it rolled away, splashing Sprite everywhere. Tanya just looked at Wing, and folded her arms.
"Um…the what? I've only heard part of that legend. The part about the names of the Angel's." Mallory said, looking sheepish.
"But WildWing, that's just a, a legend."
"I'm not so sure." Wing said slowly, putting one hand under his chin. "I'll tell you the whole story Mallory. I've got a hunch it'll be important to know in the coming weeks…"
[I]There is a dimension that is linked to all words were the Ducks live. The dimension of the four Angels. These Angels are very unlike the guardian angels that are of common belief among all our people. Their names are Angela, Zoee, Cara, and Jamie. Jamie is the first of these Angels. She has blonde hair and brilliant blue eyes. She's the duck of mischief. She lures sailors and unwary young ducks into danger. She won't actually harm or kill them, just lures them into a situation that makes them more aware of their surroundings. Cara is the duck with black hair and bright green eyes, and is the duck of blame. She creates all the not me's, and I didn't do its. Zoee is the duck of death. She has brown hair and brown eyes. She spreads doom with her, and laughs and destruction. The final duck is Angela. She is the duck of messages. She consoles the mourning families of those her younger sisters play their games with. Of course, their magic will only work if mortal hands touch them. So if you're wary and on your toes, and don't fall into their tempting snare, then you'll be okay[/I]
"So you think those Angels are after NoseDive?"
"Yes I do."
"Well like Tan said, it's just a legend right?"
"I don't know." WildWing ran his hands through his hair and sighed.
"And even if it isn't, there's nothing I can do about it! If he actually touched one of them then…"
"But he hasn't. And maybe he's just seeing things." Mallory blurted out hopefully.
"Again, I don't know. I can only hope. NoseDive means too much to me, I won't let anything take him. Even something I can't see."
