A.N. The second in my series, for this to make sense, first read my fanfic 'The Fallen'
INT-ANGEL INVESTIGATION'S-AFTERNOON
ANGEL sits, feet propped up on his desk, deeply involved in a book. There is a knock on the door and WESLEY enters
Wesley:
How are you?
Angel:
Well let's see. The swelling in my head finally went down... so I'm pretty good.
(he looks up from his book)
You?
Wesley:
I'm fine. I've just been thinking. About Gladial. And I do wonder... what became of her and Aurora?
Angel:
Not sure.
Wesley:
And of Isis?
Angel:
Not sure. But something tells me I won't be seeing Gladial or Aurora any time soon--
Right on cue. There is a giant bright light. From it, emerges AURORA, and GLADIAL. Both gleaming.
Angel:
Gladial.
Gladial:
Champion.
Angel:
What is it?
He stands and Cordillia, oblivious to the others, looks in through the window
Aurora:
We've been talking. And I-- we decided that you deserve to be thanked... for what you did...
Angel:
Almost help you end the world?
Aurora:
That wasn't you. Just as the Corormpida wasn't me. But I decided that you needed to be repaid for what you've done. I think you should... that we should...
Gladial:
We wanted to bestowe upon you a gift. We seek to bind you to your soul... and no longer bannish you from the sunlight.
Angel:
What?
Gladial:
Yes. It is true. You are a Champion, Angel. And you deserve a reward once in a while.
Angel:
I shall... when I get my redemption.
Gladial:
Let's not wait until then. Come here.
She hold out her hand to him. He takes it in his.
Gladial:
Close your eyes.
He does.
White out
INT-BEACH PIER-JUST BEFORE DAWN
ANGEL stands, staring off into the horizion. The sun slowly comes up, he closes his eyes and smiles as the pure bright light embraces him.
Fade to white
The END
