Chapter 1: My Angel
Kyou decided to herself that night that she would build her angel the next day. She piled all her stuff in an empty corner of her room. "Uuugh…so tired!" She said flopping onto her bed.
'I wonder how much all that cost…' Kyou said looking at the receipt. '……th-thiry five dollars.sigh Well now I'm broke.' Kyou tried to sleep but the overwhelming excitement of having her angel so close kept her awake.
'I can't wait till tomorrow to build my angel. Plus school starts tomorrow. Might as well build it now.' Kyou thought impatiently. She got to work on setting everything up, reading the manual every so often when she got stuck. After all the mechanical things were set up she took the angel egg and went to open it in the bathroom like the manual said.
"Okay lets do this." She opened the egg and a clear greenish substance flowed out of the egg.
'Probably for packing reasons.' she thought. Kyou picked up the small doll. It was light and probably only one and a half hand lengths tall. So many possibilities flooded Kyou's mind. Long hair, short hair, light weight, heavy weight. So many options and a very short amount of time. She put the hair on the angel to decide hair length and style.
"Well maybe long hair. Or short." She contemplated hard and decided to make long hair. She took the scissors and made a messy cut just below the angels bum. Then she put the doll in the tiny layer to set the statistics of her angel.
"Speed, stamina, strength, defense, light weight, heavy weight. So many options. But also seems like I have a set amount of things to put on each." (Note: Think Sims when your setting their attitude I guess you could say) For minutes on end she sat there thinking of what to put.
"I've got it! I'll make her a heavy weight defensive angel but very strong and has a high stamina for long fights. But I should also put some speed to make her quick and some light weight so it wont be off balance." She placed the stats and waited for it to load.
"Done." A small window on the computer popped up and asked for the deus to input the name of the angel.
"A name…a name…WHAT SHOULD IT BE!!! Ugh…hmmm." Kyou slowly got agitated with trying to think of a name. She looked through many books. She finally came to a large geography book that was very dusty and old. It was the geography of Armenia. Kyou never knew why her parents had this.
'Maybe mom got it from her trip to Europe.' She flipped through pages, careful to not rip any with a harsh turn. Then, she came to a section of the book that read 'Armenian Rivers And Water Formations'
"Sevan, Hrazdan, Geghama, Vardenis, Zangezur, some of these names are confusing." She flipped through another couple of pages and came to one river that seemed to fit.
"Arax." It was pronounceable and easy to remember. Most names of angels were tough and powerful sounding with a hardy meaning. But this name, this one name, was sweet small yet frighteningly powerful. It was perfect, or at least to Kyou. When the angel was finished the tiny layer disappeared and the angel stood there magnificently. She was small, sweet looking, yet strong and not willing to give up.
