Ablackwing

"I didn"t expect you too had fallen from Eden," I asked as we entered the drawing room. I doubted Michael had fallen. If he did, I was sure to see him when I visited that old b.a.s.t.a.r.d. But I didn"t find him there. It was surprising to see him at our house all of a sudden.

"I didn"t fall," Michael replied seriously. "Even after so much time we couldn"t contact anyone who fell on Gaia. It"s like the connection between our worlds was severed. We tried everything we could but to no avail. I was worried. In the end, I gave my work to Gabrielle and Sophiel and came here." He explained to me.

I"ve heard about this guy. He had always been like this. He acts without worrying about the consequences when it comes to his kin. Even after knowing that he may not be able to return, he still came to Gaia to help his people. I don"t think anyone else can behave as rashly as he does. Mother made him a Seraph after he fought with me and lost but I had no qualms about her decision. Even though this man loves to irritate me, his heart was pure and he rightfully deserved to be a seraph.

"I see."

"After coming here I realized that I too can not return. I can not find a way to go back to Eden. Eden had exiled the angels, right? Can you ask lifestream to take back its order and let us come back home?" he asked of me.

"I can not."

It wasn"t like I didn"t try. I tried to communicate with mother once again after that old man told me about this situation. But mother still wouldn"t reply to me.

I was drowned in wrath when some demon had cut off my wing. I went to Gehenna and slaughtered countless demons that day but their blood couldn"t even begin to quench my wrath. I had all the desire to slaughter every last one of the demons. To stop my rampage in h.e.l.l, mother summoned me back. I didn"t obey mother. I negated her summon and continued on with my madness. Mother then forcefully summoned me next time. At that time, I didn"t know how to negate a forced summon.

When I was back at Eden, I regained my senses. But it was just too late...

I couldn"t talk to mother...

I had the ability of creation but the ability to talk to the lifestream vanished. I tried everything and desperately called out to mother as loudly as I could but I couldn"t hear her voice calling out to me anymore. Maybe mother was angry at what I did. But she should have forgiven me by now. Maybe it had something to do with me being a bloodthirsty. Till this date, I do not understand how I lost my ability or why mother stopped talking to me.

It hurt. It pained a lot. I couldn"t converse with the one who raised me up and taught me everything. Mother was there for me when no one was. When my own parents had abandoned me in the embrace of death. It felt so alone in there with no one by my side. I had no place to go, no home to return to. As time pa.s.sed, my heart began to feel lost. On the day I was falling on Gaia, just the thought of being exiled by mother broke me up from inside. I lost all of my desire to live.

It was until I heard my angel calling out for me. Life has become much better over the past few months. But I still can not talk to mother.

"Why? As the angel of creation, it is your responsibility to come to their aid when they need you!" Michael said loudly.

"I"m sorry. I can"t help you." I was too helpless. It was my shame to be unable to talk to lifestream as the angel of creation and I couldn"t bear to tell others about it.

Michael got up and walked forward. "How could you refuse to help your people? They"re being hunted out there and you..." I could see his fists were clenched. He wanted to teach me a lesson for refusing to help but he resisted himself. Perhaps he knew that he could not win me. After all, I had wrecked him up with one hand.

"You should search for other ways little Michael. I can not help you in this regard." I replied and after a while, he sighed. His clenched fists opened up.

"Old Rai was right that I would be wasting my time by visiting you... Forget it, I"ll figure out something myself." Michael shook his head and walked out of the room. He was at the door when he turned his head back again and said, "I heard a lot of demons are coming in this city for you. Take care... Of angelheart... Or something that happened there years ago will happen once more. I don"t wish to see this peaceful world get ravaged in your anger," With that Michael left the room.

Twice! I warned them twice but those sc.u.m wouldn"t listen to me. I understood that those higher devils wouldn"t listen to a small scout. But I warned Asmodeus too. I even spared her life. Yet, those s.h.i.t of demons don"t listen to me. I guess I have to give them a warning once again, much more severely.

I called a restaurant for dinner after our little magic trick. Luna wouldn"t let me go and cook.

"Honey, I need to go and take care of some urgent work after dinner," I whispered in her ears as we were having dinner.

"How long are you gonna go for this time?" Eve asked. She didn"t ask about what urgent work or why I had to go so late at night. She just wanted me to return back to her quickly. And I would always come running back home to my Eve.

"A couple of hours."

"You can increase the time if you want because if you are late this time, there"d be no more kisses for you... For a week!" She threatened me with a smile and my heart raced up. Those people would be shocked to death if they knew that there was someone who could threaten me like that. Her smile was like my life and all I wanted was to protect that smile. No one shall harm that smile.

This time, I really couldn"t dare to be late. Her threat was pretty scary...

"Got it. I"ll be back in a jiffy."

After dinner, I was given the responsibility of dropping my wife"s friends to their home. It turned out that they both had walked from the bus stand. Neither of them wanted to drive here. Anyway, I didn"t mind dropping them off to their home.

Michael jumped in the front seat when I sat in the car. He said he too wanted to come with me and "join in the fun". Perhaps he knew that there might be a fight between me and demons. I didn"t want to bring him along with me though. He"d just be a burden if a fight really began. But I knew this dumba.s.s wouldn"t listen to me if I told him to get off and he might disturb Eve with endless questions about why she had ability despite being a human. Therefore, I let him come with me.

Lilith, however, stayed at our home saying she wanted some rest from work. That old b.a.s.t.a.r.d must have made her work her a.s.s off all this while. Eve didn"t mind having her around.

Amber and Mirajane"s home was like half an hour away from Eve"s home. But that half hour wasn"t easy for me. Eve"s friend constantly asked me about how I did those magic tricks or how they would keep it a secret. I couldn"t explain the "tricks" even if I wanted to because they weren"t "tricks".

When Amber and Mirajane got off the car. I gave both of them a Teddy bear, as small as the size of a palm, as a thanks for being there with my Eve when I wasn"t there. I thought it"d be nice. Their smiling faces told me that they loved the Teddy.

It didn"t get any easier after the two girls left the car. As soon as they left, Michael bombarded me with questions about how I could share my ability with a mortal. He wanted to learn that ability to transfer abilities. That guy was too irritating. I hadn"t given Eve any ability. I made a mental note of kidnapping his little sister Gabrielle and irritating him back later until he cries.
