COVER NOT MINE

Angel Adams might just have to be the unluckiest kid in the block but being a literal angel after death? 

 Adams is rough around the edges who knew he was actually just a diamond in the rough waiting to be chipped out and death was the only way to do it.

I open my eyes and the building's gone, I look ahead at the water body ahead and city lights, hooting, with the wind lifting me, my wings are still on fire and there's lightning coming out of my fists.

 I hear screeching behind me and veer around to see the most disgusting race of demons I've ever seen_on the internet, with these huge bat wings and blades on the edges, their fingers were blades too with fire coming out of their eyes, they were only two of em.

"That one's ripe for the taking"

"I don't want no trouble_Rafe? Raphael? Hey homie, I got trouble out here" 

I laugh when nothing's happened and my wings are gliding on the wind thermal, I can see my reflection on the water clearly, I face them smiling.

"Hey, I'm Angel...Hail Satan"

"You're coming with us" The demon pulls out a huge sword and I pull back.

"Back up" I raise my flaming hand but they don't balk.

"Uhh..the power compels thee?"

They exchange looks like I'm crazy and I feel the heat rising and an extreme amount of fire and lightning comes shooting out of my hand to scorch them. 

I turn to fly away and look at my hand "That worked?"

The demons double up to four, screeching, I curse trying to evade the hail of blades coming at me and wince at the one that stabs my feet, I let myself drop in the water and the fire on my wings is still persistent.

Fire in water, how unbelievable.

I hold my breath and grit my teeth pulling out the daggers, no blood, the demons were floating above water just waiting for me like a swarm of killer bees but what could be worse?

It's been 2 minutes and I'm still underwater, my lungs were gonna give out anytime soon, my brain if I had any would be swelling, air bubbles escape and I'm still breathing.

I see a light from under me and a woman's face appears.

"Come on!"

I stir in the undertows and swim down into the portal, the place kind of turns upside down and I'm going down.

"Oh geez, work!" 

I focus on getting my wings to flap and scream as the force of the wind pushes me down, a fire ignites around me and I'm falling like a comet.

 I'm hyperventilating and my eyes fly around although I see nothing. I stop in the air when something clutches my foot. The fire goes out and I spin in the air and my wings open to glide on the thermal, the first thing I saw was the lady, grinning.

"You are one hot angel number" 

 She has this flowing white hair and a doll face with huge wings and white armor. She smirks at me and I push back when the sky starts turning blood red and her lips tear open showing nasty teeth.


She grips my shoulders with her webbed talons and tries to take a bite out of me. 

"I know you want me but can't you be a little gentle?"

 I push her face away and she screeches as the jolt from my hand plummeting. I look around at what looked like a giant geyser full of burning hot water and more creatures like her were coming at me in swarms.

"Hades called, he wants his uglies back"

 I put my fist out and a cyclone of electricity encompasses them, they screech convulsing and they drop into the water. I float away to a waterfall and I'm outnumbered.

"You belong with us" One pointed a nasty claw at me.

"There's no place like home, there's no place like home" I repeat to myself and I'm still in this hell house.

"Rafe? Anytime now!"

 A hand muffles my voice from behind and pulls me back, I roll into another dimension and look up at Rafe in new clothes, my eyes dart around at the forest with peculiar kinds of leaves and what looked like a prism rose bush.


He helps me up and I pull back adjusting my toga 

"All better"

"What's happening, why's everyone trying to get me?"
