Road To Ragnarok - Chapter 13
The Tenshi Race
-----------------------------------------------------
"Ano... 007..." Rachel said.
"Hm?" came the reply. 007 stopped walking and Kazel did the same.
"Are we lost?" asked Rachel.
"How do you say it..." said 007. He looked around. "Apparently so." The three were still in Sograt Desert, even after the three hours of walking non-stop. All that could be seen was dry sand. There were no sign of any life form around.
"IYAAAAA!!!!" Rachel screamed as she ran around in circles. "After all of that walking, we're still here!! I'm so tired!" she flomped herself onto the hot and dry sand. "I waaaaant some waaaaateeeeeer..."
007 took out a map and glanced thorugh it. "We're screwed. Even with this map, I can't find where we are. Even though this is the map of the world, it doesn't really tell much details. It's only a rough draft on how the world looks like. Argh! Why did I buy this kind of maps!!??"
Suddenly, a gust of wind blew, and the map flew out of 007's hands. Rachel's map also flew out of her hand. The wind whooshed, the trees swayed fiercely, and dust flew everywhere. From the sky above, a figure appeared. He had long, blonde hair with bright and sparkling golden eyes. He also had white feathery wings while they flew around him. A shining light shoned on him. Rachel first impression on him that he looked like an Angel. With blonde hair and golden eyes that is just like the sun, he must be an Angel; that's what Rachel thought.
The guy slowly landed on the ground. The wind stopped, and the trees were no longer swaying. The guy opened his eyes and looked at Rachel, 007, and Kazel. Rachel went up to him and said: "Are you an Angel?" she whispered. She looked very excited when she first saw him.
"Yes, young lady," he replied. "I am indeed an Angel. Unfortunately, I do not come from the heavens. I come from the Tenshi race." He smiled while Rachel gave a confused look. "We may be humans, but the Tenshi race are blessed with God's powers too. Our job is to let the dead rest in peace before they interefere with human life."
"If you are blessed with God's powers..." Rachel said. "Can you please help me? I am looking for a friend. She is my best friend. We did have an arguement and I realized that I was wrong. Can you please help me find her?"
The Angel patted her on her shoulder. "Don't worry," he smiled. "I'm sure she'll forgive you. She must be a really good friend. May you be forever blessed, young Acolyte." Rachel was shocked. How did he know that she was an Acolyte? "Would you like to see the power of God?" He asked. Rachel nodded.
"Very well. I shall complete my duty..." he turned and faced 007 and Kazel. "Tell me, young Archer, how does it feel that you no longer be able to grow, no longer eat, never tired... no longer human?"
Rachel was shocked. They're... they're not human?? Aren't 007 and Kazel humans?
"You..." Kazel slowly backed away. 007 already prepared to fight.
"No matter how strong you are, young Kazel, we Tenshis are able to see spirits no matter how powerful they are," said the Angel. He now had a very serious look at Kazel. "You have been in thie world long enough." He snapped his fingers and five more Angels appeared and surrounded Kazel. "This will not happen like the last time when you got away with it." The Angels started chanting a spell. Kazel realised that he couldn't move, and he was feeling cold like ice. Suddenly, an arrow came flying and hit on the Angel's shoulders. 007 shot more arrows towards the Angels. The Angels backed away and 007 went in front of Kazel and prepared to fire at the Angels.
"I won't let you come any closer!!" 007 said. "If any of you take a step, I'll shoot!!" The Angels didn't move at all.
"How foolish..." the Angel with the blonde hair that appeared previously. "Ghosts are spirits who will only bring evil to this impure world. They are a threat to all living things. Now, move away from that spirit." 007 didn't budge at all.
"Other Ghosts may be a threat to your race, but not Kazel!!" 007 shouted. "He is my best friend, my childhood friend: He is just like my brother!! I will not let anyone harm him!!" 007 started to tremble and sweated. "You heard me!!? Get away from here!!"
None of the Angels showed fear, nor anger. In fact, all of them were very calm. "This is the life of the Tenshi," said one of the Angels. "The world is collapsing. Humans hate each other. Demons kill the innocent for the pride of their race. Why do you think the Demons are getting stronger?? Ghosts!! They are responsible for killing countless innocent people for revenge. That's why we Tenshis exist: to send the dead... the spirits in peace before they create more havoc!!"
"You talk a lot... that's from the Tenshi race," 007 smirked. "You're not God, you're humans!! You guys don't have the right to control this world, it's our own free will!!" One of the Angels threw a feather at 007 and made a small cut on his face.
"Watch your language... you don't have the right to tell us off..." said the Angel with blonde hair. "Whatever the case, we will complete our mission... and we will soon..." 007 turned around. Kazel was sweating furiously but he was as cold as ice.
"Kazel!! Say something!! What the..."
"You see... he was a tricky spirit to deal with. He is more powerful that the counsel expected. So unlike other spirit that could be dealt alone... I have decided to bring more companions and seal him... and shaking hm up won't help, young Archer... you see, this is a very holy seal, even Dark Tenshis couldn't even take it. It's useless... your friend will soon be gone..."
The Angels chanted the spell. Strong wind began to blew and surrounded Kazel. 007 was blown away towards the corner. "Let there be peace and eternity to human kind. Rest in peace, young Kazel..." A bright flash emitted around Kazel.
"Kazel!!!" screamed 007.He ran to him but the wind was too strong and blown off. 007 could not get any closer to Kazel. He then took our his bow and arrow and was about to fire when one of the Angels grabbed his bow and punch him on the waist. 007 groaned and feel to the ground. "There's nothing you can do to help him..." said the Angel. "Sit there and watch..."
It was starting to get much brighter. 007 could barely see anything except for the light. "NOO!! Don't do this!!" He sobbed. "STOOOOOOOP!!!!!" Everywhere flashed and 007 knew no more...
"Kazel..." whispered 007. A tear had formed. He was gone...
