Chapter: 2

MAX POV

Flashback continued!

When I wake up I am on the floor of a pure white room. My first thought is 'SCHOOL!' but then I take a look around and I see nothing. No furniture, no lamps, not a single thing. Where is this bright light coming from then? I see movement out of the corner of my eye and I whirl around, ready to fight. I see a humanish figure, except I can't tell whether it is a boy or a girl. I go with it is a boy. He has light blonde hair and bright, yet pale, blue eyes with a hint of grey. He has on a dress like thing with wings like me so I ask, "Are you from the school?"

He smiles warmly and says to me, "No, my dear, I am afraid not. But I will help you. You see, I am an angel. That is why you could not tell if I was a boy or a girl. Which I assure you, I am a boy, or man I prefer."

I cringe, "Sorry about that. So, am I dead?"

He now smiles sadly, "Yes, you are dead, but it is not your time to go. You still have to save the world, remember?"

I narrow my eyes, "Why does everybody keep on saying that?"

He gives a hearty chuckle, "Because it is the truth, sweetheart."

I wonder why he keeps on saying things like 'my dear' and 'sweetheart'? out of the blue, he says, "I say that because I am your Guardian Angel."

I am so shocked that I can't even come up with a witty comeback so I say, "budubuduhbuhbuh buh?"

He translates that into: "Can you read minds?" He says gently, "No, it is just obvious what you are thinking about to me, after all I have watched over you since you were born, keeping you from harm."

I know I shouldn't be, but now I get mad, "WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU HAVE KEPT ME FROM HARM? ALL MY LIFE I HAVE BEEN CONSTANTLY FIGHTING FOR MY LIFE, AND I HAVE ALMOST DIED SEVERAL TIMES! AND NOW YOU HAVE NERVE TO TELL ME YOU HAVE BEEN KEEPING ME FROM HARM?"

He pursed his lips as if he was thinking then spoke, "You may not understand now, but you shall later, when you are ready. And when you do understand, then you will have full access to your abilities. For now, you can use quite a few. You earn your abilities, remember that. Now, you must go back to earth, for Angel is scared. The others do not know, time has not passed. The only reason Angel knows is because she cannot find any activity in your mind whatsoever as of now. I will always watch over you, farewell."

As soon as he said farewell, I was gone, rushing back to my body.
