Chapter 3

Settings
As I continued my journey through the strange and dangerous streets. I realized how painful it was for my wings being wrapped so tightly against my back. I grunted in pain as I kept walking. Then I finally saw Charlie, she was walking with a slender, gray-lavender-skinned fallen angel with moth-like features, including gray-white hair with pink stripes, and a slate-gray eyepatch with a glowing red "X" on her left side where her other eye should be. "Charlie! Hi." I exclaimed quickly hurrying over to Charlie. "Oh hey Ace. Do you need something?" She asked. "Yeah uhm could I talk with your father. I need to ask him a question." I reply slowly catching my breath. "Yeah I don't know if he is going to answer a lot of questions especially if they are personal questions." She replied hesitantly. "Charlie who is this?" The slender gray-lavender-skinned girl asked. "Oh right This is Ace. Ace this is my girlfriend Vaggie." Charlie replied with a bright smile. Vaggie waved at me so I waved back with a smile. "Hello Ace." Vaggie greeted Ace. "Hi Vaggie." I greeted her back. "Also would your father know how I died perhaps?" I ask. "I don't know, Leon probably does. But that would mean going back to the gates of heaven and hell." She replied. "How do I get there?" I ask quickly leaning in a little bit waiting anxiously for an answer. "All you gotta do is walk to it. Retrace your steps and I ensure you that you will get there. Even if you have to dodge a bomb just to get there. Just a warning. Prepare yourself for the truth sometimes the truth can be hard trust me." Charlie warned Ace. Ace noded. "Ok.." I spoke distantly trying to remember the way back to the gates. "Do you know when the gates will close?" I ask quickly. "Well It's always closed but when a new demon goes through it Leon has to open it in order for the demon to get through." she started, "So you might have to wait until one comes out of the gates, and sneak past or you can just ask him to open the gates so that you and him could talk." "Also make sure that it is Leon not Saint peter at the gates because if it is Saint peter then he will probably just send you right back into hell. So yeah make sure that it is light blue hair not light yellow hair. Got it?" Vaggie asked Ace as she raised an eyebrow at her to make sure that Ace understood. "Got it." I say quickly as I nod. "Good." She replied. "Ok well good luck finding it." Charlie beamed. "Thank you guys." I reply smiling at them. "No problem." Charlie and Vaggie spoke in unison as they walked away. Charlie waved a goodbye to me, I smiled when I saw it. I straighten up and start heading towards the gates of hell. The weird Lizard guy was gone but there were still people shooting at each other. I make a quick dodge as a broken bottle of beer shoots right past me. I look up to see who had thrown it and I see a large and overweight man smoking a cigar. He had black hair at the sides of his head and a suit that looked like it was going to explode. "Watch where you're throwing things fat ass." I hissed at him. "It's not my fault." He replied as he walked away. Weirdo. I thought to myself. I continued my journey to the gates of hell. As I continued walking I saw even more people shooting each other. It was like demons loved killing each other. There were three or four demons that were trying not to get killed and looked so helpless they couldn't get away though because the other demons ended up killing them anyway. "Help me!" One of the desperate demons cried out to me. I ignored them. When I was part of the mafia I got used to the people asking for help just because of my boss. I was the one who brought the people to him. I hunted them down and so did some of the other guys. Darlwin was never in the mafia in fact he didn't know that I was involved with the mafia at all. I remember this one guy who owed our boss thousands of money. The guy never gave up the money. Then as soon as we found him we found out that he had committed suicide. The guy was quite literally drowning in debt. "No thanks." I say coldly to the demon and just walk away. Less than two minutes later that demon was crying in pain. Then there was no sound coming from him. I mean I didn't care about the guy but it was obvious that he died. I wonder what happens when a demon gets killed. I thought to myself. As I get closer to the gates of hell I notice there was a feather from my angelic looking wings in my hoodie. I quickly brushed it off. Horrified. What if someone or anything saw it? I think to myself my eyes widened. "Shit... What am I going to do.." I mumble under my breath. I straightened up again throwing the feather into a nearby trash can that was on fire it reeked of burning plastic and burnt hair. I continued my walk walking a bit quicker now. I was almost there when I felt my feathery wings trying to escape. I made them stay flat against my torso though. I finally got to the gates of hell again. I peek through the gates and I see The light blue hair that I was looking for. "Leon! hey can we talk?" I ask loudly through the gate, He whips his head around I see a smile flash on his face but he covers it up as quickly as it came on. "Ahem. What is it?" He asked rudely. "Rude.. I was just going to ask you if you knew how I died." I spoke carefully. "No I don't.." He stopped talking. I knew he was hiding something but what? "Tell me what you know." I reply leaving no room for argument. "Fine. All I know is that it was a guy who is still alive. That's honestly all that I know and heard of because no one really actually talks about you. Because you aren't that important anyways." He spoke blankly. "yeah I know that i'm not important. Also I have another question for you." I say. "Yeah and what may that question be?" He asks me as he gets closer to the gate of heaven. "Is there any way that I can just see how things are going on earth?" I ask. "Yeah but if you want to do it then you have to stay with me the whole time." He instructed. I nodded and waited for him to open the gates. "Ok there we go." He said as he opened the gates. I walked through the gates. "So are we going to earth? or." I ask. He gives me a sharp look. He raised an eye brow. "No of course not. What are you dumb or something?" He asked rudely. "No I just wanted to know where we were going." I hiss. He rolled his eyes at me. "I am just going to give you a tablet that will let you see what is going on back on earth. "Remember to bring it back to me when it runs out of battery or I will report you for theft." He huffed. "You angels are weird In a bad way." I hissed at him. "Well you demons are a lot worse." He snarled back at me. "Here is the tablet. Its battery will hold strong for about a week. The amount of hours you spend on it a day will make the battery die faster. Any questions?" He held the tablet in his hand. He held it in the air. "Yeah. So uhm how many people can I watch at a time?" I ask, waiting for an answer. "One." He stated. "Can I get the tablet now?" I pointed at the tablet in his hand. "No. Because there are five rules that you need to know before taking it. Rule number one Never eat or drink anything while using the tablet. Rule number two Do not get water on it! Rule number three Do not lose it! Rule number four DON'T EVER LOSE IT! Lastly rule number five, never tell anyone about the tablet. If the angels hear that I gave you the tablet then I will lose my job as a gatekeeper." He instructed . "Got it." I replied reassuring Leon that I understood the task. "Good here take it." He handed me the tablet. "Thanks." I thanked him, dipping my head and straightening up again. "Go on now." He showed me away with a simple flick of his hand. I nod and slip the tablet in my pocket and start walking back to the hotel. "Ok. Lets do this." I huffed. Thirty minutes later I finally made it back to the hotel. I grab my keys for my room in my other pocket and walk back to my room. I spotted Husk behind the bar counter again.Angel Dust had left. I walk to the door of my room. I slowly unlocked the door. As soon as I got inside I closed the door and walked to my bedroom. I let myself fall onto the bed. I took off my shirt and my hoodie. I carefully took off the bandages. I spread my wings and they felt very painful. "Shit." I muttered as I feel the pain in my wings. I put on a bra and found a large sized shirt. I cut holes in the back of the shirt so I could put my wings through it and quickly made it into a nice crop top. I put it on slowly making sure my wings went through the holes. After I successfully put the white shirt on I laid back on my bed. I slipped the tablet out of my pocket. The screen was blank. I tapped it. "Powered off for the day. available tomorrow and after that." A robotic voice spoke out of the tablet. It wasn't loud but it wasn't quiet. I sigh and just put it in the drawer of the bedside table. I yawn and stretch out my limbs and my wings. I slowly curl up in the bed exhausted from the day. "See you soon Darlwin." I muttered.
