Changing Destiny Angel's Wings (Episode 1)

 Episode 1: The Beginning 2

Darkness…it surrounded everything. A flash of light appeared through the darkness the flutter of angel wings echoed throughout the abyss. Seven angels with different weapons hovered in the darkness shining their light. A huge demon stood before them, standing in midair. Its skin was pitch black without showing any detail of itself. The demon had six arms, three on each side. Three heads waved in the airless space one like a lion, another a snake, and the third an evil dragon, roaring a festival of moans of anger and despair. Its eyes burned red with the fires of rage and anger. This demon was no ordinary demon. It bore the mark of Akushisken, Eternal Evil upon its torso. One of the angels pointed his samurai sword with angelic writing upon it toward the demon. The heads of the demon laughed harshly at the angel for showing such foolish bravery. A dark feeling began to swell up inside the demon. He wanted to slowly torture and torment the angels for eternity for their foolishness. The demon stared at a female demon, with long black hair and shiny black eyes, her voluptuous figure, her beauty that shined through her face entranced the demon. He wanted to crush her slender body and have her flogged by demons. Or any other form of punishment used by demons. His eyes then moved to the lead angel, the demon knew that this angel was the leader angel due to the fact that he was in front of all of the other five angels. This is the angel that infuriated him the most, for their many encounters together. Legendary battles that would never go down in history plates. Battles that have left scars on both sides. Since angels are so holy they cannot die by mere means of weaponry, they have to be severed from their “souls” in order to “die”. Unfortunately for the angels the devils have discovered magic such as that. However the angels have created ways to counter it, thus the two sides remain at a stalemate. 3

“Beelzoba your reign of terror upon the worlds ends now!” he called to the demon. Beelzoba laughed his demonic voice echoing through the darkness. 4

“You really think that seven of you can defeat me!? Beelzoba the prince of demons!” shouted Beelzoba, his dragon heads roaring a salvo of anger and rage. 5

The angel looked toward his friends. The slender and voluptuous angel hugged him closely, her long black hair effortlessly falling onto her back, her shiny black eyes somehow giving comfort to the leader angel. 6

“We can’t lose. Its for the sake of the worlds and our son.” her mysterious black eyes met with his glowing sea-blue eyes. The leader angel smiled, returning the favor of a smile back to her, he then nodded. 7

“Right. As long as we have faith in the Celestial Beings nothing can stop us.” he turned to the demon still holding on to his lover softly . “When we defeat you all souls will be free and peace will flourish throughout the heavens!” 8

“Ha! Brave words from such weak beings! Have at you! I’ll show you what death is really like!” Beelzoba gathered a green energy in all three of his lion-like head the energy was released as long beams swirling in a fanciful dance as they were heading toward the angels. All seven of the angels dodged the beams, flying around the demon. The female angel with long black hair thrusts her whip and ties the demon’s three heads together. However the demon didn’t stay bound for long, Beelzoba wrangled his heads in all possible directions. The whip gave way, and was broken into pieces, the female angel became worried at that moment. Another female angel flew furiously through the darkness, the wind blowing in her soft brown hair. She wielded the famous elfin weapon, the hadfang only this hadfang was made of ashika a common material of the angels. Staring into the black mass of Beelzoba’s chest, she focused her eyes upon the left peck. The sound of blade against flesh resonated through the limitless space. The angel saw the damage she had inflicted upon the demon, and smiled. Gurgling sounds could be heard as Beelzoba’s flesh began to move and twist, long tentacles emerged from the open wound, they latched and entwined into each other, slowly they pulled each other together soon closing the wound. Beelzoba gave a twisted and wicked laugh, from his beastial heads. The leader angel began to think it was hopeless. He waved his hand to signal the other angels not to attack, for Beelzoba would regenerate himself after their attacks. Come on think! What could we do to beat the demon king?! Is all lost? Has faith lost in the face of despair? Faith… This word rang in the leader angel’s mind, for what seemed like eternity. Suddenly a name came to his mind “Hailos”. The name was a legend among angels and devils alike. Hailos was the most beautiful and powerful angel in existence, but since this being’s confinement Ryoshi the celestial angel, is now the most powerful angel. That was his solution to invoke the legendary angel into this pace. Though he became aware of the consequences, “The angels who invoke him also have to dispel him.” Those words quickly came to his mind. An invoking of such power would take a great deal of aura, but that was one risk the angels had to take. The leader angel held up his and his two first fingers in the air. His fellow angels’ expressions became shocked, however they new what they had to accomplish. The angels flew around the darkness, and gathered in a circle. All of them focused their aura into the middle. Simultaneously they invoked the rite. A circular ray of orange light began to spin in the middle, angelic writing began to be written as if by some invisible hand. More and more the angels forced their aura into the circle. Slowly a the tip of angel wings arose from the circle, though these wings are different they are made of pure aura. It is said that Hailos was so faithful to the Celestial Beings that his wings had become pure aura, more efficient than the original feather wings. A face suddenly appeared, a face so beautiful it was hard to consider the gender of the being, the being’s golden eyes seemed shiny like a females, yet the mouth and jaw are like a man’s, the beings expression was that of emptiness a blank expression. Mortals male or female who even stare into Hailos’ eyes will feel their hearts lift and rise over such beauty. Hailos’ hair was long and straight, shining pure white hair. Then the torso appeared an elegant golden breastplate over a red silk shirt with intricate angelic writing. Next was the lower body the same red color as the shirt, it spread out very wide and when the angle was right you could tell that Hailos was floating in mid air is barefoot. There Hailos floated, body very still, a living statue. The circle disappeared as Hailos hovered in darkness angel wings seemingly illuminating the darkness into a bright space. Beelzoba became frightened at that moment. His darkness was shining, which was entirely impossible since he ruled over all darkness and could easily consume the brightest flicker of light. Hailos’ expression was blank, Hailos’ was known for showing emotion, but since his solitary confinement his heart has changed. Referring Hailos as a he or she is a common mistake, but Hailos really doesn’t mind, since calling this being either male or female, is appropriate. Which also leads to constant confusion, so in a desperate solution everyone decided to refer to Hailos as either a he or a she. Though her expression was blank, the angels could feel a certain softness from her. A guardian in the face of death. Hailos gave a hard justified stare at Beelzoba, who then cringed in fear. 9

“Do you think you can defeat me again Hailos? Don’t be foolish! You have confined yourself in that limitless space of yours for too long. Your powers have waned and are now weakened! I shall rip you to bits of…” Beelzoba could not finish his sentence in that split second. A bright yellow light covered over Beelzoba’s twisted bestial eyes. He felt something missing from his body, something unusual. He moved to realize that his snake and lion head were missing, only his dragon head remained. Beelzoba was amazed that Hailos still retained her powers and that she attacked without warning. Silence, only the sound of Beelzoba’s flesh regenerating itself could be heard. The sound stopped, Beelzoba’s regeneration process was halted. What?! How can this be?! Beelzoba thought. 10

“Beelzoba. Eons ago, I knew that you would once gain more power, so by my own will I confined myself.” Hailos’ voice was soft, with a mix of a male and female tones. “However, in my confinement, I realized your weakness.” Two yellow orbs of light began to spin around Hailos, these were generated from the natural aura from him. Beelzoba knew that this was his final moment. His nearly eternal reign, was now at an end. The two orbs of light began to move rapidly around Hailos, who then slowly raised his arms, until his palms touched each other. Gracefully the orbs spun faster and faster, Beelzoba tried to move but without his other two heads. “Beelzoba, this is your final judgment! And your verdict…guilty!” Hailos’ orbs lightly touched his fingertips, in one swift motion, he slammed his hands down to his chest, then released his orbs toward Beelzoba. The light, Beelzoba felt the hot, burning sensation of the light. He could feel his right arm being melted away, next came the rest of his body, his dragon head waved and flapped, yet it could not save the devil king from his judgment. The light faded, Beelzoba, the devil king was no more. Hailos sighed, then converged the same circle in which she was summoned from. The circle let out a rush of wind like a black hole. Hailos slowly crept back into her world to disappear again. The other angels began to bid their legendary brethren good-bye. However something went wrong, the gate did not close, but remained open, sucking in anything that would have remained there. The leader angel began to move forward, knowing that if at least the other angels were alive, they could tell their story. 11

“Halt! What are you doing? If you die what will we do without you, friend?” said one of the angels that was a draconian. When mortals die, those with great faith are reborn as angels, no matter what race. So there will be on many occasion elfin angels, draconian angels, and even dwarf angels. However there were certain angels called the Heaven Sent, angels with human qualities but they lived on Earth, in great secrecy to the world. 12

“This is how it must be. I am to sacrifice myself for all of you. Don’t worry. Everything will be fine.” The leader angel gave a smile to his friends. Faster and faster he was being sucked into the gate. In his mind a song came to mind. It was a simple song the angels sing to praise the Celestial Beings. Another draconian angel appeared from the small gathering and tried to pull his friend to safety. The wind was too powerful for him to reach his friend, he was forced back by the powerful gale, he realized that all attempts were useless. Sadness began to swell in the angels as they watched their dear friend be taken away by an unforgiving force. As he began to fade into the gate, his lover the angel with the black long hair heard him whisper “Live for our son. Live for Ky…” he could not finish. The gate had taken him away. 13
