Fallen Angel

Angels are happy
Joy is innocent
But joy never comes to angels
And angels never come to Joy
Thus Angels are happy
Joy is innocent
But Angels aren't enthusiastic
And Joy never is pure1

A fallen angel is supposed to be elegant. Complex. Beautiful. But Taira was too innocent, too naive, to be a fallen angel. Taira was not complex or elegant- or beautiful- in any way, and she was just purely cute and adorable. And saying, "please take care of me" is a sin like no other if you are a fallen angel, it must be a sin. So why had Taira just appear out of no where, tell Sofia to take care of her, and fall asleep?4

Just before she told Sofia, "My name is Taira. I'm a fallen angel".5

No, Taira couldn't be a fallen angel. She, as mentioned earlier, looked so... Innocent.6

Tark8


"Damn it, where's Tiara?!" Thump. An elegant wall of a house was now not-so-elegant. Tark seemed to be worried, more worried than Tikki even.9

And Tark then saw Rausheil. Rausheil was of a higher rank than he was, she MUST know what happened to Tiara. 10

"Rau, you know what... Oom... Tiara?" muttered Tark.11

"Oh- I thought you knew..." and the next five words would change Tark's life forever. She is a banished angel. Tark couldn't believe it. No way, Tiara was of a really high rank. She was one of the "rare" few. No way Tiara would commit a sin, not even by accident. Tark wondered, which type banished angel was Tiara? The one who went into nothingness? Or the one who is reincarnated as human? Or... the one who is reborn in heaven? Or... well, there were hundreds of other possibilities, and the only two that would make Tark feel worse if... Tiara was going to nothingness, or if Tiara was 'that'. A fallen angel. And then Tikki drew near him with tears in her eyes.12

"Have you heard about Tiara yet?" Tikki sobbed.13

"Yeah, she is... banished from heaven." whispered Tark, trying hard to keep his face composed.14

Tikki shook her head with much effort, but only managed to tilt it a little,15

"No. It's worse," Tikki whispered, "Tiara is a fallen angel." 16

Tark felt like everything he believed in had turned out to be a lie. Not his sister, not his friend, not his... Not his cousin. 17

"No, not Tiara," Tark laughed anyway, with disbelief. And yet Tikki looked so sober.18

"No, really, Tiara is... A fallen angel."19

Tikki21


She had heard the news from one of the three sacred arc angels. Deira seemed less sad than she was, but then again, Deira and Tiara never did get along too well. Not in any of their 5 lives before becoming an angel. Not in their life as an angel. Not ever. See, Tikki was shocked that Deira seemed sad at all. Tikki would have expected Deira to be smug.22

She began crying and she had to go to Tark, he would definitely want to know. In their 5 past lives Tikki, Tark, and Tiara had always been related somehow. 4 of the time they were blood related. The last time, Tikki and Tark were twins but... Tiara had been just a friend. A best friend, but a friend still the same. 23

Was that what had tore them apart in the end? They hadn't been blood related till the end? Oh God, why?24

"Here's the coconut meat, Taera," Sofia said as she scurried along to Taira. "I can call you Taera, right? It sounds much better."27

Taira shook her head while eating up the meat, and drinking the juice. 28

"You have exotic foods. I would have guessed you didn't, since you live in Urium. The country." sighed Taira. "It's sad, I wanted to visit earth. But earth, it's hard to know if its the Devil's world or God's world... Or Buddha's world or... Its best to know that the place your in contains only God, the Devil, Genevieve, and Derum. That way you don't have to worry as much...29

"I guess I should tell you about myself more. I am a fallen angel you see, but I became a banished angel before that. I was banished because I was too innocent. My enemy Deira told me to become less innocent. That God was planning on recycling me because I was too dense, too innocent, too piece of crap-y. I didn't believe her at first, but she kept repeating about it. She was conniving. Convincing. Finally I believed her and did what she told me to do.30

"I took my anger out on someone. Killed someone. I then got banished.31

"And God told me I have never suffered, that I shall suffer. Fortunately I didn't have to go to nothingness. Fortunately I wasn't discomposed of either. I was about to be reincarnated. 32

"But I was sick of life I guess. I craved for something more. I had found the new me, and I loved her. So I pledged my soul to the Devil."33

Tiara35


So Sofia actually thought her name was Taira. Taira was a pathetic name, actually. But if she just went by Tiara, the others would be able to find her faster. No way that was going to happen to her. No way she would get annihilated. Or something.36

She had just told that Sofia about how she came to be. Now that she thought of it, she had been an idiot for believing Deira in the first place. But still, Deira had lied too... Well... 37

Deira should have been banished too, Tiara thought. That innocent looking, that overly deceiving Deira. She looks so damn elegant. Damn ME for being so naive, short... Cute... Or something.38

This was sad.39

She just felt like she was missing something from her life. But what? She had been feeling this way for quite a while now, and nothing helped. What the crap did she need now?40

She just hoped 'someone' didn't suddenly decide she was needed. That someone being two people; Tikki and T... What was that other person's name, the boy's name? She was forgetting... Tank? Tamk? Tark? Takk? At least, she knew one of them were right. So it was either Tank, Tamk, Tark, or Takk. Awesome.41

She was forgetting. She was beginning to forget everything of her angelic life. Because Satan was taking a liking to her. Satan was her friend from her last life as a human, after all. And Satan had told her something that changed her life forever.42

"I'm Satan. And I want you to join me. I have never had a person who actually LIKED me before knowing... Stuff... So, I really like you~!" Satan had said.43

Satan... You're erasing my memories so slowly. Why do you do that, just erase all of it already. Are you THAT weak? Idiot.44

Tiara was probably one of the very few that could insult Satan. Confidently. 45

"Tiara, I'm no idiot, you're the idiot." Satan replied to her. Sofia couldn't hear, it was a voice that could only be heard by fallen angels. Precisely, her.46

Satan... You suck.47

"I know, like, totally."48
