Chapter 4: Sacrifice for Destiny

The journey to the garden was disastrous. The swings with the memories of yesterday are now broken on the soft ground. The warm tropical air transformed into a dark and cold one, since this once beautiful garden has now turned into the battleground of good versus evil. But in reality it was a battle against time to see who will save our maiden.

"What the fuck is wrong with you, Isael?!" said the enraged demon as he stood from the ground "I was going to save her, let me go towards Elisabeta and let me save her."

"NO; I will not let you turn her into a demon." said the angel as he summoned his sword of silver that had a white glowing mist around it, until it got solid, ignoring the little cracks on its sides.

"You really are that low in the angel hierarchy." the demon coldheartedly commented about the angel's poor knowledge. "Elizabeta won't be a demon, she will be my familiar..." but the angel interrupted.

"YOUR COMPANION! You might as well call her your whore!" the angel screamed with an anger not usually seen in celestial angels. "Elisabeta never wanted to be alone with you, how could she accept that?"

"You never gave her the chance to be alone with me, since you were always there hovering over her like a falcon watching over its prey." Demonio growled as the white in his eyes turned blood red "You were so obsessed with her frail innocent form that you never noticed that only thing she accepted was her wish to live and to not suffer because of the cancer that is killing her." said the outraged demon.

"I have no interest in your opinions, demon." said the angel positioning his sword for battle "Because, with the will of my Father, I will save Elisabeta from the hands of death and of yours."

"How will you do that?" said the demon with a smirk "You are only a Guardian Angel, one of the many celestial guides of humanity."

"I won't be for long, I will transform myself into a Celestial Warrior and I will save Elisabeta before time runs out."

"You think that's going to be enough to put me down? You really as naïve as Elisabeta, but that is expected of one of YHYW latest creations. But tell me, how will you accomplish this exactly?"

"Sending you to the fires of hell; where you belong."

"You truly don't know what you are doing, do you? Hell won't stop me." the golden eyed one said infuriatedly "You are only elongating her suffering and destroy any chance of saving her."

"I'm saving her from a cursed life." Isael screamed, his anger, their anger, fueling him.

"The only cursed life I know of is the one she is living right now."

"What do you, a demon without emotions, know about human life?"

"I, a demon, know the fragile and short life a human has, for I was once like her until I took up the white blade that made me who I am today. But you, a pathetic angel that prefers to fight the only person that can save his supposed friend; you an angel created by a God that permits humanity to corrupt themselves and to walk blindly in a world full of gods and monsters." screamed the demon as he slowly marched toward the lesser being, as the infernal induced chaos into his surroundings "You an angel that knows nothing of how it feels to be a human. You will never have her; she will never accept you as a lover for you're just a lap dog made of dirt and bones."

"Shut up!" said the enraged Isael, the voices echoing his words, as he ran toward the demon with sword in hand ready to battle. But the demon's faster, and he dodged the attack, kicked the angel in the stomach and then punched the angel in the face. Which broke the angels nose, and the white blood oozed to the ground.

"Isael, stop this idiocy, let me save her or I will cut one of your wings and send you to Heaven as a broken toy." Demonio summoned his sword made of the bones of demons that had perished by his doing.

But the angel did not give up and stood from the ground as his cream-colored wigs appeared on his back, to continue the battle screaming as the others did within him. The demon attacked first and ran towards the injured angel with great velocity. When the swords clashed, the collision was so strong it could cut through wind, the angels eyes changing colors every instant.

"So, this is your plan?" the demon smiled at the chaotic celestial "Feast on the souls of human kind to give yourself a boost of power? Were they still alive when you ripped out their souls to feed of their essence?" Demonio then headbutted Isael to the ground and kicked the angel in his stomach and then pulled the winged creature by his hair to look at his eyes. "Are they screaming to be let out?" The golden eyed one then smashed the celestial's face into the ground, who then stayed unmoving. "I will only ask you this once, out of curiosity." said the demon, as he stood from the ground and pointed his sword towards Isael's back, inches from the creatures wings. "What would you do if I saved Elisabeta and she turns into my familiar, what would you do to her?"

"I will use all my power to hunt the both of you down and put an end to your miserable lives." said the angel without mercy.

"You really don't know who she is..." the man chuckled "Then I have no choice but to kill you before you hurt Elisabeta." saying that the demon positioned his sword over the angel heart to put an end to this battle. He stabs the angel's chest, white blood covering the celestial's shirt and wings, but before the demon could pierce Isael's heart a scream stopped him; an agonizing scream coming from Elisabeta's room, Susana's reaction as she saw her daughter in the floor with cuts on her extremities, thanks to the shards of glass from the broken window.

Demonio now worried for Elisabeta's wellbeing, turned around when he heard the scream and when he was going to run toward it; he felt a shooting pain in his chest and back. When he looked down, he noticed Isael took his angelic sword and pierced the demon. The now infuriated Demonio pulled the sword out, looked at the angel and angrily said:

"You will not obtain my death this way." his wounds healed rapidly

"I do not wish you dead," said the angel who profoundly bleed from his chest "I only wish for you to go to hell." saying that, glowing marks appeared on the demon's chest, burning his flesh as it took the form of a cross, in which it was surrounded by Hebrew words that recited: You cursed child of God, without soul, without heart shall be delivered to the kingdom of Hell. Then a chasm appeared in the ground and dark tendrils started swallowing the demon down pulling him under.

"I'm actually impressed, you used the souls as energy to build this seal to send me home. You sacrificed those souls for your own gain." the demon calmly reacts, smiling at the creature in front of him, noticing the cracks in his sword "You will regret this, Isael. Elisabeta deserves a better life than the one she has now, and I can give her that."

"The only life a demon can give a human is one of malevolence and darkness." said Isael as he saw the demon go underground.

"No," the man chuckled, knowing well he'll come back " but if you do this you will never see..." the chasm has closed and message was not delivered.

When the angel noticed the battle was already won, he decided to go see how Elisabeta was doing. When he got there he found Amanda standing beside Susana, Federico and Dr.Winchester as they stood beside the almost dead Elisabeta. Isael walked towards the bed where Elisabeta's body laid, waiting for the end to come. But then, asked a question to Amanda.

"What is happening to her?" Isael calmly spoke, since his chaos is all but gone... for now.

"She's dying," the reaper responded with false worry "she has only seconds of life left."

"There is no need to worry, she will live."

Saying that, the angel put his hand on the head of the poor maiden and kissed her forehead. In an instant her pale face took back its original color, her weak breathing turned to normal and her heart started beating like before she got sick. But more importantly, the cancer that once was killing her is now gone forever. The angel backed away when he saw Elisabeta's eyes open with peace and life.

"You did it." said the now surprised Amanda "You saved her that means you're a Celestial Warrior."

"It appears I am." said the smiling angel, as he looked at his now white wings.

"It appears my work really did the trick, Death will have his fun after hearing about this."

But something strange has occurred, Elisabeta rapidly sat up, stood from her bed and started to search for her friends the cat and the angel; but could not find them.

"Isael, Demonio where are you?" the young girl asked while she looked under the bed, then looked out the window and couldn't find them, she couldn't see them, she couldn't hear them. "Guys this isn't funny, come on." in reality the angel was standing beside her, scared of what he is seeing.

"Elisabeta, I'm right here." said the worried angel as he saw his confused friend "Why don't you see me, why aren't you hearing me?" said the poor angel getting close to his friend, not knowing this is his doing. But Amanda stopped him in his tracks.

"Isael, hear me out." said the now serious Amanda while she hugged the angel and pressed her forehead againts his back. "Your friend could see you, hear you and feel you because of the cancer she once had, but since she doesn't have it anymore...-"

"She can't see me."

"I'm sorry" she faked pity "Isael, this was your sacrifice to save her."

"What will happen to her now?" said the Celestial Warrior as he saw what was happening before him. Federico was holding his crying daughter, Elisabeta, as Susana told her that everything would be fine.

"She will be alright, she will keep on living her life, she will go to school and finally live a normal teenage life." Amanda turned away and started to walk towards the door "Isael it's time to go, her life is of no importance to you now."

"I know, let us leave this place." as Isael walked towards the door, he decided to look back, to look back to the human girl and say "Goodbye old friend, I hope your destiny is better than that of your dear Demonio." he then disappeared as if he was never there.

The end is only but the beginning...
