THE WACKY ANGEL ADVENTURES:
The 10th Plague
Brick sat next to Butch, watching the judgement being passed on some humans. He loved to watch this, especially watch the people who had suffered God's wrath through him go straight down. It was the reward of being a great angel of death, at least he thought so. He saw as one man was passed to judge. He remembered as one of the Egyptian slave tamers, it seemed he had been killed by one of his recent plauges. All of which he was very, VERY proud of.
Brick got up from his place beside Butch and the tall podium and started walking up to the slave tamer.
"What are you doing?" Butch asked.
"That crazy old man doesn't know how to pass judgement on these..." His voice deepened. "Things...."
"So?"
"I'm going to show him how it's done."
"Bro, please, don't do that."
"And why the hell not?"
"You'll just cause a ruckus, she'll cast us down for a few months."
"Well I'm going down for a night or two to help free the Jews from the Egyptians anyway, so what? May as well enjoy the vacation"
"Well, I'm not."
"What's it going to matter?" He rolled his eyes. "You're going down later to be a flaming tree after that anyway.."
"Bush..."
"Whatever." He started over to the man on his judgement day again.
The man was terrified. Every single thing he had ever done wrong was shooting through his mind as he looked up at this old man at the podium...was he God? A Saint? He shuddered as the man repeated everything he had ever done wrong. Why couldn't he go faster? Why couldn't he be judged so he wouldn't have to worry where he was going. Hell had to be better than this anticipation...he saw a little boy. He looked like a deformed child, was this a sign? He watched as the little boy interupted the old man at the podium and walked up to him.
"Are you...are you an angel?"
"Kinda." Brick smiled.
"Oh, please! Tell our heavenly father to forgive me!" He got on his knees and prayed. "I mean not what I did, I swear it!"
Brick shook his head. "Hmm...no."
"No!"
"Burn." Brick's eyes lit up as the man ignited in flames.
"Noo!" The man screamed. "Please, father! Forgive me! I am forever your deciple!" The flame dissapeared.
He chuckled, walked back over to Butch and sat down
Butch sighed annoyingly. "Why did you do that?"
"Because." Brick grinned.
"You cast a soul into hell without a reason? Oh, you're in for it."
"I got a reason!" Brick grunted. "He broke one of the commandments."
"I haven't even given those to the Humans yet, how would they know?!"
"It's common sense that it's wrong to kill somebody! I watch those Egyptians, it just so happens that that guy happened to kill three slaves while he was down there."
"Ohh.."
"Well it wasn't your place to judge them anyway." Bubbles floated up to both of them. "She's going to be angry, Brick."
"Oooh." Brick sneered. "It's miss 'I look like God, so I get to be all goody good.'"
"This is Heaven, Brick." Bubbles glared. "If you don't start acting towards her like I do you'll be the one cast into Hell."
"Better than on earth. Those idiotic creatures don't know what they have."
"She wants to see you." Bubbles said.
"About what?"
"The last plaugue to free the Jewish."
"Damnit! That idiot can't do anything for himself!? Let him kill someone, I'm too tired."
"Moses is simply man." Bubbles sighed. "He's not God himself, Brick. That's why he needs us."
"And that's EXACTLY why those things are USELESS down there!"
"Calm down and go." Bubbles said softly. "Please?"
Brick sighed annoyingly. "Fine, I'll go." He walked quickly passed Bubbles.
"He's been seeing Boomer again."
Butch hovered up beside her. "Yeah, I know."
"It'd be better if he were just banned from here. We don't need him, he's the only watcher that gets to stay all the way up here."
"Because he is one of us, Bubbles." Butch yawned and but his hands on the back of his head. "But even so, if it was up to me, I wouldn't just ban him from here, I'd ban him from Heaven period."
"Don't be so cruel, Butch."
"I'm not being cruel, I'm keeping things in line like I'm supposed to and Boomer isn't making it any easier just laying around here while all the watchers are in paradise, if he wants to stay here with us he has to start working."
"I'll talk to him." Bubbles hovered up to take off.
"Fine." Butch sighed. "I gotta go..work on my ten commandments speech to the Jews' savior. The faster he gets them, the better. Brick won't have an excuse to kill as many people." He smirked.
Bubbles giggled. "Okay. I'll see you in a bit." She flew off.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________
Brick stomped from cloud to cloud to God's ballroom. Stupid Bubbles. She always had to be the one to tell on him or threaten to tell on him.
"Because, she IS the image of God." A voice said.
"Who's there?" Brick looked around.
A rock hit the back of his head and he looked up to see Boomer resting on a cloud. "Right here, bro."
"Oh, what?"
"So you're headed to see big mamma again?"
"Don't call her that."
"Chill, chill. What does she want you for?"
"That's none of your concern."
"Hey! I'm supposed to help keep heaven in line just like all of you!"
"And yet, you don't."
Boomer glared down at him. "You take that back."
"No, I won't because it's true." He started away.
Boomer sighed and called after him. "It's okay, bro! She'll see just how useless they are! Sooner or later! You watch!"
Brick continued walking, not stopping to respond to Boomer's words...even know he ompletely agreed with him. Humans were usless, they were the ones in Heaven doing all the work, Earth and all other life pissed him off the most. It was almost idiotic to keep them alive, but he figured God knew what she was doing..
He walked into a gigantic ballroom where God awaited him right in the middle of it, leering at him with a glance he didn't like very much, almost a glare. He gulped and approached her cautiously.
"How can I be of service?"
She looked down at him. "You judged a human today."
"Yes, I did." He said, looking straight up at her.
"Are you trying to make me angry, child?" Her voice roared throughout the crystal white room.
"No, Lord, the human broke a commandment."
"That he did, but it's the elderly saint's job to judge the humans and you know that."
"That may be but..."
"SILENCE!" She roared once again, making Brick cringe with fear and whimper. "Now..." She pulled him closer to embrace him. "Brick, child, I love you, yet you seem to not be thankful of that."
"I...I am, Lord."
"Then thy shall go down to Earth again to let a plague out on Egypt once more."
"Why..." Brick started to ask with a hard voice, but he softened his tone and started again. "If you don't mind me asking, Lord, why? I thought Moses was already out of Egypt."
"Had you been paying attention, you would know that Moses and the Jewish people are about to be sabbataged by the Pharoh once more, he lied about letting them go."
"What's your bidding through me?"
"Go to Earth, kill every first born in Egypt."
"Every single one?"
"Those who follow Moses will have blood of lamb on their door, spare them, but those who do not have the blood, their first born shall be taken."
"How will they know?"
"Butch had already told the Jews the message." She held him closer and embraced him tighter. "Go."
Brick nodded and slowly walked to the exit of the room.'
Brick uncased his wings as soon as he got outside the door and headed to the gates to go to Earth, he felt like he had betrayed his creator doing what he did. He had to go down and fullfill her wish the way it should have been.
"Don't tell me you're going." He heard Boomer's voice behind him.
"Yeah, I'm going." He said, not looking back.
"Why?"
"Boomer, you used to be so intent on keeping heaven on track and fullfilling the scriptures, I really wish you'd start again."
"Hey, hey! I'm all for keeping heaven in order, I just don't want to bother with Earth, but that seems to be HER main priority!"
"You're going to be cast down soon if you don't start helping out again, brother."
"What!?" Boomer ran up to him. "Did you hear anything! Oh, man! I can't go to hell!"
"No, I was just..."
"You can't be messing with me, Brick! Are you serious?"
"Dead serious, at least that's what she makes it seems."
"I swear to God if you're lying...Brick.."
"LISTEN TO ME! I'm going down to earth as is her bidding. I'm no longer going to even bother with you."
"Brick...let me go with you."
"No." Brick turned away, and vanished out of sight.
"Brick, please!" Boomer called out, his voice echoing through the eternity he was in. "You can't let her do this to me."
"You did it to yourself." Boomer turned around to see Bubbles. "You just gripe and gripe about the human race."
"What do you want?"
"I just wanted to have some quality time with my counterpart." Bubbles smirked.
"Fuck you." Boomer's chest grew red as he clutched it painfully. "Bubbles!"
Bubbles crossed her arms and just looked down at him.
"Help me, please!" Boomer got to his knees.
"Oh, Boomer..." Bubbles knelt beside him. "She's not going to let you do this anymore...you know as well as I do it's inappropriate for you to talk like that."
"MAKE IT STOP!" He started to cry.
"I can't do that.."
"YOU'RE DOING THIS? YOU LITTLE WENCH!...AAAAHHHHH!" The pain was unbearable now, he couldn't even hear his own screams, nor feel his body, all he felt was unbearable pain. Like a spike through his chest every second.
Bubbles took a deep breath and exhaled, as she did, Boomer's pain stopped and he lay there, breathing heavily.
"Boomer, what's happened to you?" She put a hand on his cheek. "I used to lo--"
Boomer grabbed her arm and forced her hand off. "Don't."
"Why don't you just love the humans like the rest of us do?"
"Because she doesn't force me to!"
"Because she loves you."
"Oh, shut up! Nobody loves me, nobody ever has, YOU never have. This is Heaven. There is no love, just God and eternal paradise. What's the difference between this and Earth?"
"Boomer, you don't mean that."
"Oh, I do." Boomer glared. "I swear my eternity that I mean it."
"..You can at least work with us peacefully and keep opinions to yourself."
"It's too late, she won't forgive me."
"You know she will."
"What do I do?" His look softend.
"I'll open the gates for you to go help Brick. If you do, and prove you'll do her bidding, I'm sure she'll reconsider what I'm almost certain is in store for you."
There was a long pause, but soon, Boomer nodded.
Bubbles smiled and spread out her arms to open a passageway of light in front of him. "Go."
Boomer started walking towards it, but turned to face Bubbles. "Hey..Bubbles?"
Bubbles looked at him. "Yes."
Boomer smirked, almost smiled. "Thanks."
_______________________________________________________________________________________________
Brick flew towards the kingdom where Moses and the Egyptians were being kept, they didn't know he was coming. All he was to the humans was a cold wind as he passed them. He wanted to get this over with and rest...just...rest.
But then Boomer appeared next to him.
Brick almost fell to the ground. "Boomer...you can break through the gates?!"
"Bubbles let me through."
"I can't trust her for anything." Brick sighed.
"I've come to help, I swear." Boomer said firmly.
"You swear all the time, you're a lowly Grigori and I should have noticed that long ago."
"I can't screw up, Boomer...this is my enternity we're talking about."
Later that night Brick and Boomer skimmed over the kingdom, looking over the houses as their cold wind swept through the lungs of first borns, most first borns in Egypt, killing them.
Boomer approached one little house...there was a rack of lamb on the door step..the people inside were huddled up in a ball, guarding their first born, probably misinterpeting Moses' information. He was just about to rush inside and kill the first born...after all, those were the orders. But these stupid, idiotic, spineless creatures looked so scared, as we would look at a vonerable ant hill, with us having the power to bring their entire world collapsing down. He felt sorry for them, just a bit and he knew if he told Brick, him being the angel of death would kill them without hesitation. He couldn't drive himself to do it, no matter how much he hated humans. He passed over the house.
"That house has it." Boomer said
"Alright." Brick started to fly away. "That's the final plague. We're done, bro. She'll be very happy."
"I hope.." Boomer said, starting to hover away, but spotting a barrel of rum next to a house they passed over. "Hey..."
"Huh?"
"Whataya say?" Boomer went down to grab the barrel. "Post slaughter drink?"
Brick chucked to himself. "Sure, why not?" He smiled. "You've earned it."
_______________________________________________________________________________________________
Bubbles, Butch, Buttercup, and Blossom all were headed towards God's ballroom. She said she had an important announcement, and Brick and Boomer were nowhere in sight which worried Bubbles deeply.
They walked slowly into the room, where God was sitting in the middle of the floor, her head hanging.
"Lord?" Bubbles whispered.
God spoke..but not in her lineant voice the angels usually heard. "Brick and Boomer have been cast down."
Bubbles but a hand over her mouth and whimpered. "No.."
"What'd the do?" Blossom asked. "I thought Passover was a success."
"That's what I heard." Buttercup chimed in.
"They came back, intoxicated with a human drink, I cannot say what they told me. It hurt deeply." God started to get up. "I've banished them to Earth.."
"For how long?" Butch raised an eyebrow.
"Until the second coming of the Christ."
"But..they'll be back, right?" Bubbles said hopefully, in a shaky voice. "Even if it is for a long time?"
God simply looked at her. "No, child."
Bubbles buried her face in Butch's shoulder and cried.
Butch looked down, and about 50 feet away he saw the flame from the sword. "They did it to themselves, they told you they wanted to leave didn't they?"
She nodded.
Butch comforted Bubbles. "Hey...hey, maybe their souls can be wiped."
"NO." God roared, peices of the ceiling shattering. "I decree that Brick and Boomer of the present soul should never in existance be able to come back through those gates, they have been banished to the west where they shall remain until the Apocolypse, where after, they shall sit outside the gates for all eternity."
Butch sighed as Bubbles cried harder into his shoulder. "You won't know it...but you'll get to see him when we have to go down to earth, some monkey creates us, right?"
God nodded once more.
"See?" Bubbles lifted her head and sniffled, Butch rolled his eyes when he saw the wet spot on his shoulder.
"Thanks Butch." Bubbles sniffled again and hugged him tightly.
"Don't mention it..." Butch looked up at God and mouthed 'you owe me'.
"I also decree that angels shall no longer abide alcohol." God said in a softer, almost cautious tone.
Butch looked up in shock at God, then Buttercup, then Blossom and all at the same time..."WHAT?!"
