Night of Blue
By Perfect Soldier
Chapter 3:
A bird circled the sky, being careful not to be seen. It's wings were as light as paper and gave no extra strain on it's body. Dark blue eyes darted quickly from one place to another, scrutinising the landscape below. The bird landed on the roof of the Peacecraft mansion. From an angle, the bird was a black figure against the bight shining moon. From here the bird surveyed its surroundings.
A girl in her late teens stood below him with a shocked look on her face. He heard her whisper something.
"Heero? Where are you?"
His eyes widened at the name. The bird analysed her more as he perched above her. The girl's long sandy blonde hair waved silently in the gentle breeze. Her aqua blue eyes were brimming with tears; her lips were trembling with her disappointment. A soft sigh escaped her mouth as her eyes closed, trying to brush away the tears tat plagued at her eyelids. The bird decided to stay for a while, watching the woman down below him.
Suddenly, a loud shriek pierced the night sky. A stray firework shot through the air, aiming straight for the bird. Shouts from the other side of the house could be heard announcing the path of the firework. The bird heard the voices instantly and rose the fly away but it was too slow. The rocket exploded onto the feathery surface of its wing. The explosion caused the bird to fall unconscious. Just as he was closing his eyes, the girl below him shot her eyes up towards him, and he heard a sharp gasp as he fell from the roof and rolled down onto the soft grass of the garden.
Relena suddenly heard a loud blast above her. Naturally she looked up to see what it was. Different colours of light sparkled everywhere and in the middle of the light display was a figure. She recognised that shape, that body, that face. Except there was something wrong with her picture. The figure had wings sprouted from his back. The body tumbled back and fell out of her sight. Something beated hard against the inside of her chest. Her heart was beating twice its normal speed; and her breathing became quick. Her feet carried her down to the garden door without her knowing.
Relena reached the entrance to the garden suddenly wondering how she had managed to get there. The bird like figure lay unconscious on the grass outside, motionless. Relena pulled back the glass door and stepped out onto the damp green plant covering her lawn. The moon engulfed everything with a pale blue colour. However, the bird remained pearl white. As Relena crept closer to the lifeless figure before her, she found that the bird was no bird at all.
The creature had large snowy wings bursting out of his back. They acted as a barrier surrounding the creature completely, preventing Relena seeing the full being. She edged closer daring not to wake the body.
Suddenly the creature stirred and rolled over, spreading its wings out and revealing it's true self. The slow rising and falling of his chest indicated that the animal was still alive. Relena held her breath, and her eyes widened when she saw what the creature was. A strong well-toned chest was exposed to the air, along with a muscular pair of legs clothed in jeans. His feet lay bare on the grass. Relena's eyes travelled up the figure, analysing him.
'Was he an angel? But since when did angels wear jeans?' She thought.
Unruly moss-green hair lay upon his head, and his eyes were closed. The angel figure stirred more. Relena felt frightened, but before she could move, the angel awoke and had stood before her.
