Angel POV
Jack just looked at me for a second before bursting into laughter. I frowned and glared at him.
"Yeah. you're a thief and you save children. Suuure." he laughed. I rolled my eyes angrily, then opened my wings and lifted off. he had the dignity not to follow me. I flew around for a bit, humming one of my favorite songs, when I heard a child cry. i followed the sound to an apartment on the 5th floor of a rag-tag looking building. I peeked in and saw a small child crying in a corner, with an older man, obviously the child's father, holding a hand threateningly above his head. I frowned and reached in, grabbing the man's arm and yanking him backwards. He flew into a wall and looked around, startled. still invisible, I grabbed the child, a little girl, and flew back out of the window. I released my invisibility and smiled down at the child.
"Don't worry, you're safe now. I'll take to to a much better home." She just snuggled deeper into my chest. I carried her bridal style for a few miles, finally stopping down at my camp for the kids I rescued. I knew they wouldn't be missed, which was why I had to rescue them in the first place. they were under my protection. I could turn on and off my invisibility for the kids, because having them believe in my was only half of my existence. I don't really know why I have two totally separate jobs... maybe it has to do with my past... but anyway, these kids needed me. I dropped off the girl and looked at the "Leader" of my little camp, a boy named Mason.
"A new one." He remarked.
"Yeah. her dad was beating her." Mason was the only one I ever let see me, other than when I was actually rescuing the kids. I knew they told stories about me, but I never let them see my face. It was part of being me. "guess who I ran into earlier." I asked dryly.
"Santa?" Mason cocked his head.
"Nope. Jack."
"Fun." Mason replied sarcastically.
"Yup." I couldn't tell Mason about the conversation, as none of the kids actually knew about my other job. Speaking of which, I should probably get going.
A/N Okay, now even I don't know where this story is going... it's just kind of happening at this point. Don't worry, I will follow the storyline. I'm also gonna have some more different POVs later. I realize I write short chapters, it's just how I work. Happy World-Ending Day! :D
