regular dialogue
Telepathy
Demons and angels are rivals. Everyone in the realm of shadows knew this. They say that angels and demons just naturally hate each other. That if we look at each other for even a second, a feeling of disgust and anger will immediately flow.
It's always been this way. For almost 5000 years the angels and the demons could never live in peace. There is legend that says before the rivalry started that angels and demons used to be in an alliance but people say it was just a folk tale.
But a small group, only a small few believe that angels and demons all can be friends. They may be young, only in their teens but they know that things can change if they try.
Jaden Yuki, Syrus Truesdale, Alexis Rhodes, and Aster Phoenix, are all teenage angels that are against the idea of hating the demons.
Jesse Anderson, Chazz Princeton, Zane Truesdale, and Blair Flannigan, are all teenage demons that are against the idea of hating angels.
They are all friends, close friends that go through everything together; the thick and thin, the good and the bad!
It was Jaden's idea to create the alliance. He wants everyone to be able to hang out with who they want. He also wants the angels to stop talking down demons and vice versa. He was sick of being scowled by others for his friendship with demons. Some people even call the young brunette a "demon lover" who should be killed because he isn't accepted anywhere.
Jaden's friends have stayed by his side, encouraging him to not to take it seriously. The one who seems to be there the most was Jesse, he was always there to comfort the brunette whenever he was down.
Right now the group was sitting in their secret hideout where they could all meet in secrecy. It was a little cabin located near the border of both the realm of shadows and the realm of the gods. The cabin was only about a few yards away from the border of both realms so it was easily accessible.
All eight of them were currently present at the moment. Jaden, Jesse, Syrus and Aster sat at the large wooden table in the middle of the room. Alexis and Zane sat on one of the small, two seated couches. Jesse stood beside Jaden on his right. Chazz stood off to the side, his arms crossed over his chest and a bored look on his face.
Jesse decided to speak first; he had a lot to say. He put his hands on the table and looked around.
"This is getting bad guys. My brother is getting suspicious of my whereabouts lately. If he finds out I'm sneaking off he'll certainly punish me and come after all of you."
The room stayed silent. Everyone in the room has said a similar story except Syrus and Zane since they were the only family they had left. Syrus and Zane are special since Syrus is a full angel while Zane is a full demon. They keep themselves secluded from the world so that no one finds out. Everyone has family that does not know they run away to this location every so often to discuss with beings of the opposite nature.
"Everyone is getting suspicious but we just have to ignore it. If we lay low for a while then they'll forget and move on." Chazz said.
"But we're so close to figuring out about the past. We need to figure out why the demons and the angels split up and became enemies." Jaden argued.
Chazz "tsk'ed" before looking back at Jaden, a glare set in his eyes. "They became rivals because someone said something stupid, it's obvious!"
"Chazz, just because you're in a mood, doesn't mean you have to drag all of us into it." Alexis complained.
Chazz sighed before looking at Alexis, "I'm sorry Lexi."
Zane rolled his eyes and stood up. "Anyways, as Chazz stated it is quite possible but in a more rational way." Everyone looked at him as he walked over to the chalkboard and began to draw a diagram. After a few minutes, he placed the chalk down and showed us his art. To say, it was quite impressive with detail. He had decided to use Chazz and Aster as an example. "Let's say Aster opened his big mouth and said something stupid to Chazz. Saying that the demons were much less of a lower class than his angels in the realm of the gods, with Chazz' ego and love for his demon brethren he would immediately stand up for them, not taking the crap that Aster was telling him. A fight breaks out and the two sides are broken up and are officially rivals."
Chazz and Aster stared at Zane as if he was crazy. Aster spoke first with a raised eyebrow. "So, are you saying that's the angel's fault that we're at war, Truesdale?"
"No, I'm just pointing it out. It could have been vise versa or not all." Zane replied, trying to keep as calm about that matter as possible.
"And why did Aster have to break if off. Why couldn't i?" Chazz complained.
Zane looked over at Chazz with a glare. "Why are you implying this as a relationship break up Princeton? It doesn't matter who broke it off. All that matters is the problem it caused."
Chazz just stayed silent after that. Arguing with Zane is as if your asking for your death early. Personally Chazz would like to live for now. He has things he wants to accomplish.
Zane took the silence as a forfeit and continued. "As I was saying, Chazz' pervious statement of "possible agreement terms" can be a possibility. Since no one in either realm refuses to tell us what exactly happened and every history book from both realms of having anything to do with it have been destroyed we are at a blank. We need to figure out what exactly happened and we need to do it soon."
"Zane's right guys, if we don't find out what happened then there is huge chance we're going to be forced to become soldier's and fight each other." Alexis put a hand over her lips and closed her eyes. "I-I just can't fight you guys. I don't want to kill any of my friends."
Chazz sprung up from his spot against the wall and patted her head affectionately, "It's alright Lexi-chan, we're not going to let that happen."
Alexis smiled before looking up at Chazz. "Thanks but I'm fine now."
Chazz smiled before standing back up and standing beside her.
"Right…so, what else can we do? We've already searched libraries, asked people, even tried spying and yet we can't find any answers at all." Syrus asked.
"That little brother is a good question. We're running low on options." Zane responded.
Jaden sighed before putting hands on top of his head. "I just don't see why they can't tell us. If it really is a big deal then we can learn to accept it. But I don't want to keep sitting around and waiting for some hint to just suddenly come flying from the sky."
Jaden was right after all. They did have a right to know the past. Some of the citizens have been around for almost millennia and yet they refuse to tell them. Even their own families refuse to tell them. It was frustrating that the latest generation of angels and demons are being neglected of such information that could change their lives.
"They probably won't tell us because they think we won't understand. Either that or this generation just isn't ready to hear of the past." Aster pointed out. He huffed as he crossed his left leg over his right. "I, however, find that ridiculous. I am one of the strongest demons of this generation."
"We know Aster; you brag every chance you get." Syrus muttered.
"What was that shrimp?"
"That's enough!" Jesse shouted. He clenched his fists and pointed a finger at Aster. "This isn't a time to brag about strength. Say it too much and the higher ups will test that strength and make you fight." He pointed a finger at Syrus who ducked back. "Syrus, this is no time for complaining. Suck it up and listen." He stopped with a sigh before looking back at Zane. "Any ideas Zane, anything at all?"
Zane just shook his head. He may be the captain of the group because of his age and wisdom as well as the power to come up with a decent plan, but sometimes he doesn't always have an idea and this was one of those rare times.
"Unfortunately no, I haven't got a clue." Zane replied in a defeated tone.
Blair kicked the wall behind her and cursed loudly to herself. "What are we gonna do guys? This isn't good."
"We don't know. We need a new idea and we need one fast." Jaden said.
No responded to Jaden, instead they all stopped what they were doing and began to think. The group of eight needed a plan and they needed one fast. Both of their realms will soon fall, and or suffer at the hands of the other. None of them wanted that so it was up to them to come up with a plan to figure out how the realm of shadows and the realm of the gods were brought to such a horrific standoff.
However, as the teens thought and thought, nothing came to mind. Jaden groaned and slammed his head against the table until his forehead was red.
"This is pathetic. We need to stop them but none of us can think of anything."
That's when Chazz said something that no one expected. "Perhaps were going after this the wrong way."
Everyone looked over at the raven with curiosity. "What do you mean, Princeton?" Aster asked.
"Well Phoenix, I was thinking that since the people of the realms won't tell us, we somehow need to get to the top and ask the big men themselves." Chazz replied.
Everyone gasped; they couldn't believe what Chazz was saying. Speaking to them was suicide. The leaders of the realm(s) would most likely not speak with us anyways. Would it even be worth going there?
"C-Chazz, are you sure about that? The demon king of the realm of shadows isn't a very nice man. We could get punished." Zane said.
"Stop being chicken, this may be the last chance we get for answers and those kings have been around just as long as it has been going on." Chazz shouted. "The Chazz doesn't hide and he sure as hell isn't going to hide from the demon king."
"Chazz is right." Jesse said. Everyone then looked over at Jesse, except Chazz who was looking in the opposite direction with a smirk. "If we are serious about this, then we need to go to the very top and take the chance of getting rejected."
"I agree with Jesse." Jaden stood up beside his friend. "He makes a great point. The people of both realms will get suspicious soon enough and makes us fight in the army eventually. The sooner we get this over with and see the kings the sooner we can get answers."
"That's easy for you to say. The king in the realm of the gods will most likely listen to you but our king might not give a shit about us."
Chazz growled in Jaden's face but Jaden was unfazed. "If you truly feel that way then you don't have to face your king." Jaden's eyes sharpened and a fist was formed tightly by his side. "But I'm going to see mine. We deserve answers and I'm going to get them."
"I'm going too. I'm not letting you go alone Jaden." Jesse said to his best friend.
Jaden eyes widened as he looked back at the bluenette. "But Jesse, you're not an angel. You could get executed."
He smiled, "My best bud needs help and you're talking about me dying. Jay, I'm backing you up all the way whether you want me too or not."
Jaden smiled, nodding at him in response. Chazz sighed before turning away from the brunette. "Fine then loser; I'm going to see the demon king."
"I'm going too." Blair interjected.
"What? I'm not babysitting you?" Chazz complained.
"Please Chazz. I want to help." Blair begged.
Chazz stared at her for a moment before sighing. "Fine but don't slow me down or you're gonna get it."
She smiled and hugged Chazz from his middle and laughed. "Thank you Chazz."
He growled and tried to push her away. "Get off me."
The others ignored them and continued with the plan. "So, how do you plan on getting to the king anyways?" Alexis asked.
"I'm not sure of that yet." Jaden admitted. "Requesting the presence of the king is difficult now considering the war…"
Everything went silent after that but it didn't last long. Zane felt another presence around the cabin and put a hand over Jaden's mouth as he knew he was about to speak.
"No. One. Speak." Zane hissed.
Everyone stayed silent and stiff, no one else knew what was going on but knew it was bad. No one dared to make a sound nor make a move. Chazz looked over at Zane before put a finger to his forehead.
"Zane, what the hell is going on?" Chazz asked.
"Shut up, he may hear you?"
"Who's he?"
"Hush!"
Chazz just rolled his eyes at Zane's desperate attempt to keep him silent.
They all listened as they could hear the sounds of rapid footsteps closing in around them. Syrus hid behind his brother, his hands clenching around his brothers long black coat. Jaden and Jesse stood side by side, their eyes looking around for anything and everything. Alexis and Blair were holding each other's hands and standing close with fear. Aster just sat at the table, his arms crossed over his chest and his eyes closed as he waited.
Everyone jumped as the door began to shake from a great force. Someone was trying to get in. A few more bangs on the door before a voice spoke.
"Open this door at once, you're coming with me."
"Man, this guy must be really weak if he can't bust down this door."
Zane glared at Chazz, he keeps telling him to be quiet but he keeps talking to him. Chazz didn't seem to understand "quiet" at all.
"Open up."
The door then suddenly exploded into dozens of little pieces, shards of sharp wood flew all around. Jaden growled at him as a small piece grazed over his cheek, a small line of blood running down his cheek.
An older man stepped inside the cabin, his blonde hair pulled in a pony tail and purple lipstick was applied to his lips. He wore a smirk as he stepped inside and looked around at the group. The group knew from his uniform, that he was the border patrol.
"Alright you little brats, you knew better than to be hanging around here. Get out of here right now and if I see you again I'm sending you off to be judged."
Jaden stepped up and glared. "Why should we? We aren't doing anything wrong?"
The man glared at the brunette before looking down at him. "Listen brat, unless you want your life to be judged you better keep quiet."
"Hey don't talk to my friend that way." Jesse interjected.
The man growled before pushing Jesse back. "Stay back, do you want to be judged as well."
"If it's to stand up for my friend then I gladly will."
"Jesse, don't act crazy."
"But Jay…"
Jaden looked over at Jesse; the look in his eyes was enough to silence the brunette.
"Jay what are you planning?"
"Just trust me."
"That's it." The man grabbed Jaden's wrists and pulled him towards him. "We're going to get you judged, brat."
"He did nothing wrong." Zane shouted.
"Quiet."
"But you can't take him to get judged for no reason."
"Oh but I can. He is nothing but a troublemaker back in the realm of the gods. He's scheduled to be judged by the king himself."
Jaden gasped and looked back at his friends. His eyes showed fear, he wasn't ready to be judged.
Jesse saw his distress and jumped to action. "Take me with you."
"Are you nuts? Why do you want to see Jaden be judged?" Chazz asked.
"I'm going to set things straight."
The man tsked before starting out of the cabin, taking Jaden with him. "Whatever, but only you, I can't bring all of you troublemakers with me or will be punished."
Jesse quickly ran after him while the others watched from inside. They watched as Jaden was dragged by the wrists and Jesse following close behind.
"Zane, what are we going to do now?" Alexis asked.
"I don't think we have to worry too much." Zane replied.
Alexis looked at him in shock, "What do you mean?"
Zane smirked, "That guy was doped. Jaden's taking this opportunity to speak to the king."
"How can you be so sure?"
"From the look in his eyes, he's prepared."
Alexis just gulped before looking back at the door. He saw as they vanished in a puff of smoke. She closed her eyes before saying to herself.
"I hope so."
