Chapter X The Legacy: The Dawn of the Fallen Angels

John’s mind was still preoccupied of the past events, never yet knowing what was happening in my room. Meanwhile in my room, Joey was still pacifying my  panicky feeling  He saw my small body shook in fear. I had never been acquainted with this remarkably gorgeous figure now wearing denims, white collared shirt and leather sandal. Plus factor, his hair well groomed. Although he was ravishing and had a great taste in dressing,  in my conspicuous eyes, my first impulse was not to trust this compulsive guy drawing near me. For me, he might be a devil disguising before me but his long thick thorns were hiding behind his forehead and sharp claws ready to strangle me. 

When Joey tried to go near me, I almost screamed. Joey was startled that he had to cover my mouth softly with her hand. “Shhhhh, don’t be frightened. I am Joey. You’ll send the whole house in chaos if you shout,” Joey whispered. I was still tensed. “Don’t ever touch me. I don’t know who you are. What planet you came from! Or you are an alien disguising to be a macho man. Just leave before I do something bad to you. Just leave now,” I was pointing the door and spoke in a low manner of voice.   Joey whispered back, “I am not evil as what you think or a bogeyman.  I am a warrior angel not a fallen angel like your grandfather or Khail. I, your grandfather and Khail were once comrades in the celestial kingdom before they waged war against God. I have been watching you since you were a toddler. Your father doesn’t know about this nor Zar nor Khail. They cannot sense me, they cannot see me. My powers are stronger than them and stronger than you. But you are the chosen one. That is your destiny so I am here to protect you too.  This is  the high time that you have to see me in flesh.” My violet eyes usually turned flaming red if I got excited, enthralled or smelled danger. This time my eyes turned flaming red of what I’ve heard. When my eyes turned to flaming red, I could become destructive, which I still could not manage to control!  Once I thought of destructions, one colossal debacle would happen. I was dangerous specie in this side that I must learn to use that bad side to fight against evil forces. I was wangling to control that demons in me. 

“Don’t try anything foolish kid or create any destructible behavior or I’ll gonna make you blind and I mean it indeed. You can never utilize your eyes again, stubborn kid,” warned Joey. I stiffened from his ominous warning. His voice was full blown authority, more powerful than the voice I heard from Zar. Joey’s voice sent pallor of chills down my spine. The more I shuddered. I couldn’t control the fear deep inside me. Joey could see that.  I was frozen and I found it hard to move. I felt my face ashen and the cold sweat dampened my skin. I was staring blankly to Joey. I  could decipher how this ravishing man could scare the hell out of me.  The message was clear to me. It was a kiss of death. I began to inhale, exhale to relax my trembling body. To calm myself,  I began of think that I was walking in the garden of paradise where I can hear the chirping of birds.  I was wearing white silky  gown dress and picking up red roses, daffodils, daisies and violets. Near the marbled fountain I saw my mother, Bethany smiling charmingly. She was too elated to see her lil daughter. She had a golden curly hair like mine. Mystical outline of face, her features defined  more of me.  Out of my illusion, I saw my mother for the first time.  She was running towards me with a bouquet of red roses ….then I heard a voice speaking to me.

“Come child, hold my hands,” commanded Joey. I obeyed him and hold his soft wamth     hands.  “What do you feel?” he asked. “Calmness of the spirit, calmness of the mind,” I replied. Yes, I felt there was essence of peacefulness when I hold his hands. It is beyond my comprehension to explain.  “Great, as long as I am with you and you are with me, you will feel tranquility. You don’t feel troubled, no dystopia in your human mind. This is how life is in the celestial kingdom of our creator. Peace is omnipresent. Not here on earth, not with the fallen angels. There is no forgiveness to their sins but I know God has mellowed down for them who were trying to return to the folds of God. You are the product. God knows your destiny before you were born. I was missioned to watch over you. In short, I am a warrior angel but your guardian angel too.  One warrior angel will be coming soon. We will make a compact with the fallen angels when the right time comes. God has given you the power of the mind to control matters and set things in motion yet you have rational mind, you have a deliberate free will, you have all the liberty to choose – either doing good or either doing bad. I am here to give light to your directions so that you will not go astray.” Those were the words of wisdom from Joey!


I pulled my eyebrows together in quizzical mood. I had encountered many melodramas these days. I was the tour de force in these melodramas.  I was the main actress. Every page of it became so thrilling and exhilarating. I am that force to be reckoned with.  Since I was the main actress in this play, then I have to play my role with great performance. Subterfuge  was the only name of my game at mind.  I expected that more surprises would unfold soon packed with actions and suspense. I had been surrounded with fallen angels protecting me since birth. Now, a warrior angel was right beside me ready to clash the enemies with all his might. His words of wisdom touched the deepest soul my existence. I should now be ready to fight with all my powers the enemies. I chose what was right and the lesser evil.  


The phenomenon that revolves my life were getting too complex. These angels were preparing me to the battle of Armageddon. Are we going to win this war?  The question that befuddled my mind right now. I was only six years old. Why me of all the seeds of the fallen angels? How long more years that we have to prepare for the next Armageddon? Should I be ready then when that time comes?  There were more evils swarming everyday and they were getting uncontrollable. Men liked the ways of evil because that was more easy to gain power and authority. There were numbers of questions playing on my mind. I shuddered to the thought then looked back to Joey. 

Yet, as little kid my emotions could be easily appeased. I walked towards Joey and  hugged him tightly. He reciprocated my hug with warm embraced. He lifted me up in one swift motion. I felt like I was floating. I felt like I could fly. I was amazed. He slowly removed his hands on my small body. Now I was floating like a balloon. I told him, “I can’t fly I have no wings.”  “You can fly Abigail like the fallen angels. You once levitated in this room when you were mad. You made the objects fly. Think that you can fly, what is in your mind is your reality,” he explained.  I followed Joey’s instruction. I contemplated that I was like a balloon floating lightly inside the room. I spread my arms as though my wings.  I filled the spaces in the room. I flew from one corner to another. I felt something unusual. I felt that two small wings were coming out from my ankles. When I somersaulted I saw a small feathery white wings flickering back and forth. I started to giggle and laughed. I lost my concentration; I fell down at the arms of Joey.

“Uncle, I can fly,” I exclaimed exuberantly. “Hahaha, yes you can”, laughed Joey. “One favor Abigail. Don’t call me Uncle.  In heaven, they call me Joseph. Just call me Joey or Joe. I don’t grow old. I did not earn tons of fine lines on my face all these years,” smiled Joey. “Okay, I’ll call you Joe from the now,” I emphasized. There was rapture all over the room.

Haniel heard our laughter. He wanted to pass through the door but he just couldn't go through. There was a barricade. There was a wall preventing him, a wall that he was familiar with thousand years ago. A wall that only the warrior angel of God could ever formed. This wall was impenetrable for the fallen angels. He attempted once to go to Heaven to ask forgiveness but he was blocked by the invisible wall which meant to say that his action was never condone henceforth, he went back to earth. This was the same wall that blocked my room. He shivered of the thought. He wanted to call the attention of Zar, Khail and my father in veranda who was busy lingering on the past events. Haniel instead changed his mind. He listened one more time, he could still hear me giggled. He was anxious of what I was doing. He knocked at the door...
