~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Angel couldn't get to sleep as usual. All her life she never had a decent night sleep. Something always woke her from her sleep. She had weird dreams about another land. They were getting stronger. She felt like her dreams held the answer to her past life.

Angel was adopted when she was four years old. She was found wandering around in the forest by native hunters. Angel tried hard to learn how she got there and who her parents were, but she couldn't remember anything.

Angel went to her window and opened it. The breeze felt cool against her damp skin. She looked up into the sky and remembered a dream she had a couple of weeks ago. She saw another planet in the sky. It was behind the moon but she could see it.

Angel was an outcast from society. She never fit in well because she was never attentive. She always felt that she didn't belong there. She even tried running away once to try and find out something about herself. She talked to the native hunters but they could only tell her where they found her. All she had to go on was where she was found and a necklace that she had when they found her. The stone was a beautiful shade of pink. She always wore it where ever she went.

Angel is a 14 year old student at Reeden High. She has medium length brown hair with red highlights. Her eyes were green like a jade stone. She is tall but scrawny for her age. Where do all these characteristics come from? Angel though.

Angel had many dreams about a woman with long black hair and sparkling eyes. She had two dots on her forehead and she wore the same necklace that Angel had now. Sometime she would be flying in the air with wings on her back. Angel couldn't help but think that she was her mother.

She would see the woman playing with two little boys. The younger boy had short black hair and brown eyes. They older one had lighter looking hair with a tear tattoo under his right eye. The woman and the older boy always disappeared leaving the younger boy crying. Angel tried comforting the young boy but she would always go through him. What had happened to the woman and older boy? Angel couldn't help but wonder. What were her dreams trying to tell her?

Every time Angel had a new dream she would write it down in her diary. Everyday she tried to piece them together, but she had no idea if she was making any progress or not. All hope was lost. Angel was beginning to loose hope that she would ever find her family if they were still alive.

Report cards came in the mail today and Angel's marks continued to fall. Her parents were very disappointed in her. They've been bringing her to a psychologist for the past four years. Angel tried talking to him but all he did was ask stupid questions. He put her on pills that made her feel worse. She never took them she would always pretend to take them and behind her parents back she would spit them out in the sink. No one understood her.

Angel came to a decision that she couldn't go on like this. She had to end this or else she would die of loneliness. She wrote a note to her parents and left it on her pillow.

She went out in the middle of the night to a cliff that overlooked the sea. The sun was setting into the sea. It was a beautiful scene to see. Angel looked down and saw the water splashing against the side of the cliff. It was a long way down but Angel wasn't afraid anymore.

Angel closed her eyes as she felt the moist breeze touch her face. "Goodbye world!" Angel said as she fell of the side of the cliff. The wind rushed by her making her close flutter.

Suddenly a pillar of light shone upon Angel. Angel opened her eyes as she noticed she wasn't falling anymore. Was this the light you see after you die? Angel was pulled up and away to somewhere where she would begin her search for the past.

*So what do you think? Is it any good? I always wanted to write a story like this. If you've seen the series you probably know who some of the characters are. Angel is a sad character. I felt bad for her. Her dreams hold the answers to her questions, but she can't put them together? This story is different. I'll admit it, but I kind of like it!!!!!! R&R Tell Angel what you think??
