A brilliant pair of gilded wrought iron gates glinted in the sun's rays. The gates rose out of a pile of white, blue, orange, and pink colored clouds. The doors had curves and a white cloud arch design on the double doors. The doors opened to reveal a blue-gray crystalline structure hovering in the shape of a sun in the center, which may have been an angel of the throne. An office building was designed as a large golden harp next to a cobblestone path. A series of buildings stood atop multiple clouds, glass and windows within curved cloud-like roofs of blue and orange. A nearby sign, framed by clouds, read "Cherub Towne", Beyond another golden door was a silver city of buildings in the distance surrounded by teal halos: Silver City. Cherub Towne lay on the outskirts of heaven,.
The C.H.E.R.U.B. the headquarters consisted of a tall office building with a gilded harp design on it. The "ropes" were positioned above the windows. Below, the trees were shaped like various swirling candies. Inside the office building there was a sign on a door that said "C.H.E.R.U.B. Headquarters." Cletus, the boss, paced back and forth as his colleagues sat at a round white table decorated with a dark purple Christian cross on it. They sat on shiny white wooden chairs in the immaculate room. On the walls were portrayed the cherubs in the sky with angelic choirs in the background. Written on the chalkboard in front of them were the words "God loves you", "Praise Jesus", "Love saves life" and There were also various bar and pie charts on the chalkboard.
Cletus looked like a little boy who wore a reddish jumpsuit and a yellow shirt with a white collar. He had a pale, chubby baby face with clownish redness on the sides. His eyes were large and purple and his short hair was a light ginger pink in a fluffy style. His elegant wings were white feathers with purple feathers towards the bases. A white halo hung over his head.
"Greetings to all!" he said, waving one of his small limp arms. "I know business is on the decline a bit, but I know we all have what it takes to get back up. I'm not saying it's anyone's fault ... Keenie "
Cletus glanced at one of his colleagues, Keenie, who makes an irritated face. Keenie It was a yellow anthropomorphic sheep with yellow woolly hair and a yellow face. She wore a ruffled yellow floral dress with red trim and a large red bow. Her butterfly-shaped wings were yellow and her eyes had purple pupils with red irises. She also had a yellow halo over her head.
"Anyone have any bright ideas on how we can get our business back on its feet?" Cleto asked.
Collin raised his hoof. Collin resembled an anthropomorphic sheep with white woolly hair and a periwinkle face. His eyes were purple and his hooves were thick and lavender. She wore a light blue shirt and a white jumpsuit with a white bow tie around her neck. She had white, feathered wings with a curved light purple base, plus she had a halo. Collin was the most sensitive and kind of the three,
"How about a car wash?" she asked.
"The cars are already clean here," Cletus said. "Hmm, maybe a billboard."
"I already have one," Keenie said, pointing to a large sign outside.
The billboard showed the three cherubs in a happy embrace. In bold white on the left, it read "CHERUB (Certified Heaven's Employees' Reliable Uplifting Business) We're Here to Spread Life and Love at No Cost! Call us today at 1-800-CHERUB or go online at 7thHeavenEvangellicAnimals. com. "
Cletus sighed happily. "One of our biggest hits so far."
Collin looked at a piece of paper with comments. "It seems our progress has been well received by many. But there have been some complaints. Like this: "You spend all your time saving random people, but where were you when Kobe Bryant died? Or does Brianna Taylor ring some bells? And how dare you not save our beloved Ariana Margarita Rodriguez Hernandez ?! If you guys you were not a non-profit, I would sue you ... but I think I will do it anyway! '"
Collin looked dejected. "Those people are now here in heaven. Unfortunately, we cannot save everyone. And does anyone know who that Ariana What A Mouthful Name is? "
Everyone shrugged and gave her a moment of respectful silence briefly. Then Keenie cut him off.
"Can't we just stick to what we did before?" Keenie asked with a yawn, adjusting her dress. "Why not prove those people wrong?"
"So helpful, Keenie, so glad you're in the room right now," Cletus spoke quickly, rolling his eyes. "Guys, have you forgotten what service we provide?"
Cletus turned on the TV and a series of clips appeared on the screen: Keenie wrapping an angel's wings, Collin helping a man to walk, Kayla, the kangaroo hugging a crying girl, Cletus saving someone using CPR.
Cletus held up a bowl of popcorn for everyone to eat. Kayla grabs a handful of popcorn. Kayla is a light brown anthropomorphic kangaroo with blue eyes and mixed yellowish brown fur patches. Her ears are quite large and each of her has a lighter heart with black tips to a haystack of beautiful wings the same color as her fur and a white halo over her ears. in doses a white tank top is a haystack of blue sports shorts
"Ah, those were the good times," smiled Cletus.
Collin ate a piece of popcorn on the table, lost in his thoughts.
Collin sighed. "Yes, really," he told Cletus.
"No need to remember, Cletus," Keenie grumbled to her boss, "considering she wasted most of our salaries helping a rival toy company with her ad, one that paid extra to make us. hold their hands and sing for three whole weeks on a channel, that no one is watching! "
"Hey, sorry?" Cletus turned, insulted. She got up. "What's so" hateful "about generosity and a super funny song, okay? It's a funny distraction when a commercial spits out lies." She crossed the room.
"People love musicals, Cletus," Collin added with a small smile.
"That's right, Collin," Cletus smiled, "and we're basically doing a musical." Cletus made some jazz hands before turning to Keenie. "Are you going to criticize my dreams of musical theater like my mother did?"
"Cletus ..." Keenie began, but Cletus cut him off.
"Because all I see right now is my mother and her angry eyes of hers staring at me, criticizing my dreams of being who I really am inside of her." She turned her head away.
Collin leaned toward Keenie. "Please don't make him sad, Keenie," she pleaded.
"I'm just stating how things stand," Keenie replied, arms folded.
"Come on don't do that," Collin said, making a face at him. "There's no need to be so hard on him, dear." Keenie rolled her eyes in response.
Cletus turned back to Keenie, tears in her eyes. "I can't believe you, Keenie. And after I made you Employee of the Month." She held up a photo of Keenie with a broad grin.
Keenie held up her hands. "Okay, Cletus! I'm sorry, but a commercial jingle and a bad song can't compare to musical theater. Nobody really likes jingles."
"But ... I liked it!" Collin appeared.
Keenie turned to her, arms crossed. "Don't contradict me in front of him"
Subsequently, the C.H.E.R.U.B. advertising began, which spread to television stations in heaven
The spot began with the golden celestial gates opening above the colorful clouds in the sunlight. The crystal structure in the shape of the sun / angel of the throne appeared in the center. He cut on Cherub Towne in the clouds. The buildings were slightly sloping and covered with cloud-shaped roofs of blue, orange and white. Another pair of gold doors had three gold eyes on top. In the background was the silver city surrounded by a halo.
Cletus appeared on the screen.
"Well, bye! I'm Cletus ! Welcome to Paradise! I guess you did something good to get here, and good people deserve to give their loved ones special blessings! "
The jingle began.
The clip showed a man falling to his death without a parachute. "Owi!" appeared in a bubble above the man.
Collin sang: "Do you feel like crying?"
Keenie added: "When does your loved one have to die?" while another human was hit by a runaway Thomas the Tank Engine red train. "Oh no!" appeared in a censorship thought bubble.
"It hurts you in all respects ..." Cletus sang as a man accidentally shot himself in the face in a "Man's Cave". "Oops!" it was in another bubble on his face.
"When is your face turning blue?" They all sang as a mustachioed man struggled to breathe in an hangman's noose.
"Well, luckily for you!" Collin sang in a pose.
"There is something we can do!" sang Keenie posing.
Cletus smiled against the clouds of dawn.
"We can help keep them alive!" Cleto sang.
They all posed in a side hug and sang:
"So you can see them thrive!"
The three cherubs flew together side by side as their "C.H.E.R.U.B." appeared in bold orange and gold letters on the screen with the registered trademark.
"Why here at C.H.E.R.U.B.!" they all sang.
"We will save your honey sandwich from violent death!" Collin added.
The next series of clips featured sheep saving people from robbers, natural disasters, and various accidents. Cletus rescued a woman from a herd of animals as Keenie pushed a frightened Collin towards them, while holding a wooden board with a nail.
"Why here at C.H.E.R.U.B.!" they all sang.
"No, we never even ask for a fee!" Keenie added.
The next clip showed a human handing dollar bills to Cletus, who waved a contemptuous hand.
"Because good people spread love!" Collin sang.
The next clip showed Collin and Keenie hugging each other as the yellow hearts spread out in all directions.
"And we're here for everyone above!" Keenie added in the song.
The next clip showed a spinning earth with multiple glowing hearts around in each direction.
"We'll take care of the paperwork for you!" Cleto added.
Collin, exhausted, quickly wrote to his desk surrounded by piles of papers around him.
"And heavy work too!" Collin sang.
Keenie lifted a heavy boulder from a flattened woman. The woman smiled faintly and thumbs up at her.
A man in a car accident with a torn chest and battered skin smiled faintly as sheep cherubs appeared around him. The man was drunk with the Holy Spirit for some reason. A nearby billboard showing the pilot's incompetent doctors read, "Injured? Good!"
"So sit down ..." Cletus sang before everyone harmonized, "And we bless a soul for you!"
Cletus smiled and flew close to the screen. He joined his two companions who raised their heads and sang in harmony. The C.H.E.R.U.B. golden logo appeared above their heads as they held hands.
"Oh we, we are C.H.E.R.U.B.!"
("Certified Heaven's Employees' Reliable Uplifting Business.")
Various clips showed C.H.E.R.U.B. save people: comfort a human crying after a car accident, distribute food to the homeless, give money to a school in Africa, humans and angels dancing in a circle ...
A blond-haired boy was drawing graphites on a wall then acknowledged the police sirens. He ran away and was then hit by a taxi. Doctors took her to the emergency room while the cherubs waited. A doctor entered by the cherubs in the waiting room.
"He's in stable condition, but he'll need rest and. Now what kind of insurance do you monsters have?"
"Angels don't need insurance," Keenie said coldly. Cletus stared at him.
The cherubs and the boy were promptly expelled from the hospital and sent back to heaven.
Back in the office, Keenie spoke, his hands in front of her. "I would like to be registered and say that the accident was Kayla's fault. The shipment should provide the right information about the customer. It's a very simple process."
"I'm sorry, Keenie, I did my best," Kayla said, unmoved.
Furious Keenie. "'Sorry' doesn't cover everything ... do your job!"
"Hey, now let's not blame Kayla she's still new," said Cletus. "She hasn't done anything wrong." he happily walked over and hugged Kayla
"Are you kidding, Cletus? It's awful!"
Kayla thought back to her when she was a receptionist at the desk. The old rotary phone rang, she picked up the phone
"Thank you for calling C.H.E.R.U.B .. How can we bless you?" Kayla asked, smiling.
Collin was on the other side, her concern in her voice. "There is a client who wants to commit suicide ..."
"Tell him suicide won't make things better."
"Throwing us kitchen utensils here is no good!"
Then Keenie added in a harsh voice beside Collin, "He's right. If this freak doesn't calm down we're ..."
"I just got a call on the other line, apologies, warts concern." Kayla chirped, hanging up the phone in panic.
Another memory came back to Kayla, which took place at her office.
"Good first week, Kayla," Cletus said. "I have something for you." He showed her a gift in her hands.
Kayla smiled. "For me really?"
"Yup"
"Wow thank you!" she exclaimed happily, snatching the gift and knocking it to the ground. A flock of white doves flew across the room and landed on her singing.
"You like!" Cletus watched as Kayla cheerfully tapped and played with them, mouth open in a smile. "Are beautiful…"
There was another time when Kayla was watching a video with a famous singer. Collin walked over, holding a piece of paper that read "Life 4 U" in his hand. His brow furrowed in confusion.
"Sorry, did you just fax me an ad for a self-esteem-building course?"
"Yes," Kayla replied.
"because ?"
"Come on," Kayla teased. "You know."
Later, Kayla rummaged around, looking for something in the kitchen.
"Who left this pineapple salad in the fridge?"
"It wasn't me," Collin said. "It was there since yesterday."
"Is this yours, Keenie?"
No reply.
"Well, I take it because I have the best feeling right now."
She closed the door and swallowed the food.
"You're very energetic today," Collin asked nearby.
"I have been since this morning, Coli," he chuckled.
"Don't call me that," Collin said. "It embarrasses me."
Keenie entered. "Kayla you went to get my lunch"
"I'm so sorry I'm forgotten!" Kayla said, then she brightened. "You know I'm going to get it now or just want to enjoy a nice walk"
Kayla ran out with a "Wheeee!" crossing the road.
"Cletus!" Kayla called into the office, "Mr. Morningstar is on the phone! He says he's urgent and wants to talk to you. He looks a little annoyed."
"Oh Lord this is serious!" Cletus yelled, splashing himself with water in front of Keenie. "I hope it's not about our access to the world of the living."
"Wait what?" Keenie asked, worried.
"Or asked Michael for permission to use the portal."
"Cletus!" Kayla yelled.
"I've heard you before!" Cletus yelled before walking into his office to play with the bobble heads of himself, Collin and Keenie.
"So ... what can I do you for, Michael?" Cletus asked nervously on the cell phone in his office. Inside his office
Michael one of the generals of heaven along with his sister Uriel.
"There is a politician who is causing a lot of problems on Earth. He wants to convince people that fracking is not dangerous."
"It's not true?" Cletus asked.
"The water catches fire you who think." Michael sighed, his hand on his chin.
"Ok what do you want us to do."
"You and your colleagues must give him religious enlightenment"
"Oh god no ... those take hours," Cletus began, stepping away from the phone
Cletus hung up the phone, with a tired look walked over to Kayla. "Distici all the other customers we would have a long day today"
Returning to the meeting, Cletus continued: "Look, the point is, Kayla is a precious member of our family and we don't get rid of families."
"We're not family, Cletus," Keenie stressed. "You are the boss. We are the employees. You treat her as if she were a child but she is more like an incompetently hyperactive teenager."
Kayla glared at her.
"This is insulting," Cletus said. "Without hyperactive people, I wouldn't have half the joy and laughter I have in this life." Cletus opened the blinds and saw an angel dressed in a golden dress dancing like crazy in the street. Cletus waved cheerfully from the window
Keenie crossed her arms and made aerial quotes with her fingers. "While we're on the subject of 'family', can you stop finding me and Collin out of work?"
"Come on, it's not a big deal," Collin said.
Keenie's eyes widened. "Sorry, what?!"
Keenie remembered cooking at their home.
"Hey Collin, could you get me some oranges?" he called.
"Sure, honey," Collin said, grabbing some oranges and walking over to the table.
Cletus suddenly appeared from the ceiling, landing gracefully in front of the angelic sheep. "When life gives you oranges ..."
He crushed a lemon, dropping the juice into a glass. "... the best helper is friendship."
Collin chuckled,.
"What's so funny, Collin?" Keenie asked the boyfriend about her.
"The pun is awesome," said Cletus, serving the angel's food cake to the table.
"What ... where are you from ?!" Keenie asked Cletus in shock.
In their bedroom in their luxurious sapphire-walled apartment (a sign above said, "Need a cat from heaven?") Keenie was awakened by Cletus praying for luck for her.
"What are you dreaming of?" she asked.
Keenie moaned, "I was dreaming of going back to sleep ... and I'd like it to be fulfilled."
Collin and Keenie remembered the song they sang, while Collin played an angelic guitar in the shape of a swan:
"Of all the cherubs of heaven,
"You are the most angelic,
Oh Keenie. "
They noticed that Cletus was looking to the side and Collin said, "You're filming us!"
"Are you serious?" Keenie roared in anger.
Back in the present, Keenie was seething. "Stop it. Stop it. Do it."
"I don't see what the problem is," Cletus said. "I love good classic romance, future holy marriage ... and bonus honeymoon scenes. Collin wanted me to, anyway."
Kayla rolled her eyes while
Keenie was furious.
"Cletus, what you say and how you act is totally inappropriate!" Keenie stood up.
"Calm down, Keenie," Collin said, pulling him down. "You'll have another nervous breakdown."
"I'm calm!" Keenie yelled before Collin rubbed his yellow head. "Shh there, there," he said as Keenie whimpered.
Cletus spoke again. "Look, I don't judge what you do outside of business hours, so don't judge me."
Veins came out of Keenie's eyes. "Oh, I judge you, Cletus. A lot, actually."
She crossed her arms as Collin gasped in fear of her.
"Keenie, he's our leader!"
"No, it's fine, Collin," Cletus said. "Your girlfriend is just ... how can I say this without being offensive ... short-tempered."
"Does criticizing me excessively make you feel better about your sad single life?" Keenie asked.
"Not really, but it's still fun," admitted Cletus.
Kayla added to Keenie: "Even though you can be a grouch at times, I still appreciate your company."
"P-Please don't call her a grouch, it only makes things worse!" Collin protested. "You know I don't like it when she gets angry ..."
"Don't criticize my assistant like that," Cletus said. "She is sensitive."
"Not really," Kayla declares.
"You are all damn messed up!"
Everyone turned to look. The pale spirit of a blond-haired teenage boy floated by.
"Oh, uh ... don't help boy," Cletus said.
"Ugh, this company is such a mess," Keenie exclaimed. "All that paperwork is bad enough without you guys bothering me ..."
"Okay, let's talk about our friendship again!" Cletus said out of nowhere.
"Nobody talked about it," Kayla said.
"That's why I'm trying to get the ball rolling, so I think we got off to a great start, right?"
The spirit pointed the finger at Cletus, "I died and ended up here listening to you weirdos if this is heaven please. I want to come back to life!"
"You," he said, pointing to Cletus, "I don't know who you are but you look like a weird Stewie Griffin parody."
Confused Cletus. "Because they all say the same thing."
The spirit added to Keenie: "You are probably the most controversial person I have ever met: 'How the hell do your colleagues tolerate themselves"
"I don't care about your opinion," he said impassively. The spirit looked surprised.
"Hey You're talking to my girlfriend," Collin said nervously.
"Are you serious a thing like her is with you?" the spirit chuckled. "You must be some kind of masochist."
Collin looked at him bewildered in response.
And you. "The spirit pointed to Kayla.
"Yes and me?" Kayla asked.
"You're alright I didn't think kangaroos could be so cute."
Kayla smiled in response.
"Wow, you know you could just be a little nicer," said Cletus.
Keenie rolled her eyes. "I am not surprised by such an attitude from a hooligan who dirties public property."
"I'm an artist not a judgmental sheep thug," said the spirit
Kayla spoke. "Hey guys, I just got a message from our client saying she's the one to bless after all."
"Who?" Cletus asked.
"He."
"Myself?" the spirit asked.
"Yup."
"Did they want us to help him?" Cletus asked.
"This is what they are saying."
Cletus frowned. "Well, Lucifer pierced by a spear."
He pointed a golden rod at her and was carried by the other members of his family to earth.
Cletus spoke about C.H.E.R.U.B. : "You know folks, with this company, I really wanted to show that we can do the same things that anyone else can, like bless people."
Everyone wrapped Cletus in a hug as he rolled his eyes. Then he said, "Even though the boy was rude, he's still a human being ... It's important that we handle this in the future, with respect." Everyone smiled in the embrace.
Back on Earth, Cletus left a sincere message in front of the boy's house for them to read. The boy felt guilty after insulting the cherubs ... so he decided he would try to make up for it by painting a beautiful picture for the cherubs to apologize and promised that he would use his art to make people happy Collin picked up the picture shortly thereafter along with Cletus.
"No grudge!" Cletus waved his hand before the portal closed.
Note:the zoophobia characters are present as angels with kayla being the counter part of loona
