A figure moves in the shadows, seemingly blending in if it was a shadow itself.

The figure moves quickly, keeping to the darkness to hide its presence from unwanted attention.

The footfalls are so soft that that even a person with the best of hearing could not of heard the figure coming.

Stopping at the corner of an abandoned building the figure scans the surroundings to see if it has been followed, satisfied that no-one has followed it, it steps into the darkened building.

Once inside the building the figure takes off its black cloak and hat, fumbling in the corner the figure finds what it has been looking for and strikes, the match now alight bathes the corner in a soft glow.

Bending over the figure lights the lantern dispersing the glow throughout the room, revealing the figure itself to be a tall man with dark hair, with long side burns and a moustache.

This man if you take a closer look at him is fitted with the finest clothing you can get.

Black tailored pants, a long cuffed white shirt, a dark grey vest and a suited black jacket adorned him, but the thing that stands out the most is the black tattoo on his neck.

With the room now bathed in light the man walks towards the other end of the room, where he finds an old four-poster bed covered in red cotton sheets, wrapped inside the cotton sheets is a young woman of 24, her blonde hair splayed across the white pillows and her blue/green eyes staring up into the mans face.

The young woman's mouth turned into a smile when she found her love staring down at her, it had been a month since he had last seen her but he promised her he would return and now here he is.

"Azazeal...my love, you have returned" her soft voice spoke out.

She had missed her love and it had been a long and lonely month without him, if he had stayed away any longer she would surely would not of coped.

"yes…my darling I have returned like I promised and will never leave you again" the man Azazeal whispered as he bent down to lay a kiss upon her forehead.

Azazeal though had not been truthful, even though he would of loved to never to leave his darling alone again, he would have to and there was nothing he could do to stop it.

Even now Azazeal was taking a chance by being there with his love, that situation he was in was against all the rules he needed to follow, but Azazeal could not take himself to tear away from his love as he had finally found his one true love and soul mate.

Forgetting the consequences that his actions would cause him Azazeal set down by his love and gathered her against his chest, just wanting to feel her body against his, to feel the warmth and comfort that flowed into his body when he was around her.

Azazeal and his love had been together for almost a year now, hiding their relationship as a secret hoping that it would never get out because if it did things that neither would ever imagined would of happened.

So hiding in shadows and disguising one another they met in secret, confessing their love and promises they would always stay together, as if one would die the other would die too in a way.

The couple seemed as ordinary as any other couple if you just glance at them, but that was far from the truth if you could ever of guessed.

Yes the couple looked ordinary to any eye, but not everything is looks is it?

The truth is that Azazeal's love was a witch, a practitioner the magicks with powers other people wished for, but Azazeal himself was the most extraordinary person you would ever come across if you would call him that.

Azazeal was a ANGEL, Gods messenger, a guardian sent over to watch the mortals below.

But there was a rule to being an Angel and that was never to fall in love with a Mortal, it was forbidden that Angel's were not to fall in love with them and to do anything else with them, their only job was to guard the mortals and not to take part in their lives.

But as we know not all rules are easy to follow as they seem and that rule was the most worst to follow as no-one has control over their heart, as the heart follows it's own path.

And Azazeal was the one that broke that rule as he was sent down to protect a young mortal of 15 with bright blonde hair and blue/green eyes, over the years Azazeal's love for the young mortal grew and when she first came into her powers Azazeal was the first one there for her.

Their friendship grew to love and they proclaimed it by their first act of love on the young woman's 23rd birthday and was when they vowed never to leave each other.

But some vows are broken and their vow was broken was when Azazeal was summoned to the Council.

Azazeal had just left his love when he heard a call form above that they wanted him to come and see them. Azazeal arrived at the Soft, grey marble doors as he waited to seen, the doors opened and Azazeal went in to see what fate had in store for him.

Stepping into the huge marble carved room, glistening with gold and silver carvings Azazeal walked to stand in front the Council who upon the golden thrones looked more menacing the ethereal.

Azazeal knew they had found out about his relationship with the mortal woman and waited for his punishment to be given out but the punishment was not what he was expecting and stood there shocked before he could finally grasp what they had just said.

HE AZAZEAL, GUARDIAN ANGEL HAS BEEN EXILED FROM HEAVEN

And what for?… for just loving a mortal.

Azazeal was seething as he was thrown out of heaven, he had nothing left, not an Angel just a worthless being (or so he thought)…but wait he did have some thing left he had his love waiting for him.

Not caring about keeping to the shadows as his secret was out, Azazeal ran to where his love was, blood pounding in his ears and heart ringing that he was free and could have his relationship with his love out in the open and start a family, be with each other forever.

His promise was finally becoming true.

But he felt some dread deep in his heart like something was going to happen or already had already happened and that set him off as he ran even faster to get to his love.

Arriving at the abandoned building where he last left his love, Azazeal stormed in.

He stopped and his heart broke at the last site that was in front of him, tears running down his face Azazeal stepped forward to his love.

His love was lying on the bed her lifeless eyes staring up at the ceiling, blonde hair matted with blood and her once unblemished face marked with blood. Her features was marked with the one of surprise and her white nightgown drenched with blood from where her throat had been cut.

Azazeal dropped to his knees in front of the bed staring at his dead love, tears coursing down his cheeks and sobs retching from his body,

Azazeal vowed never to fall in love again, the pain with losing his beloved was too much and would never want to take the chance and end up with that again.

But Azazeal made a second vow and that was the get revenge for what had happened to him and to him former love.

He would raise his very own army and teach the people and other Angels a lesson they wont forget.

Getting to his feet Azazeal wiped his face, walked towards the bed and closed the eyes of his love.

"Don't worry my love I will avenge your death, I will never forget you….my Catherine" he whispered and place the last kiss he ever get to bestow her again and walked out of the building and into the night to start on his plans for revenge.
