Hey everyone, darkironprincess17 here. This is going to be a really short story, which I have managed to write in my spare time, which is so little at the moment. It's a songfic based on the song "Alluring Secret, Black Vow/ Himitsu-kuro no chikai" whatever you know it as. If you don't know it, that's OK. Basically this is Ash's background and why the crazy angel became crazy in the first place. It will only be three or four chapters long. It might happen fast, but it's going along with the lyrics of the song.
Chapter one:
The stray heartbroken angel
Wandered in a town at dusk…
Ouch… That hurt. Angela sat on the ground in the street. Her lovely lavender dress was torn at the knees on which she sat. She was tired. She examined her torn wing with a type of curious interest. She had been flying, trying to make it up further north, but a storm had come and had blown her out of the sky. She glanced around. It was sunset, the sky almost dark.
She looked up, trying to figure out why her father had made her come here. Clouds rolled across the sky. She supposed the sunset was beautiful, but she was required to think that everything made by her father was beautiful. Even his human creations, which most of them she couldn't stand. She tried to pick herself up, but with not much success.
"Excuse me; miss, are you all right?" The high clear voice asked.
Angela raised her head and looked into the startlingly green eyes.
And came across a girl
With beautiful eyes…
The girl smiled at Angela. She wore a fancy dark purple dress, which was good enough for a noblewoman. She had chocolate brown hair, which was tied up fancily at the back of her head. Her eyes were the brightest green Angela had ever seen. That clear green colour shone of purity and beauty of the highest. This girl wasn't very tall, even Angela herself would be slightly taller than her standing. She held out her gloved hand.
"I can't imagine sitting there must be comfortable. Here, let me help you up."
And Angela took her hand.
At the moment their eyes met
The pathetic angel fell for her…
Angela stood. It was a good thing that this girl couldn't see her wings. What was this feeling? It was warm, like butterflies, as she stared into the girl's eyes, lavender into green. Angela was entirely taken by her purity, by her astonishing beauty that-in her opinion- would make any other woman jealous. In reality, this girl was pretty, but very average and plain. Angela saw her on the scale of purity, unlike other humans, who judged on beauty.
"Thank you" She said hesitantly. She had never been forced to thank a human being.
"Don't mention it at all" Even her voice was like a set of pure crystals.
As the forbidden feelings grew inside her
She opened Pandora's Box.
"Clara, hurry up!" A deep voice called from the carriage nearby. A man jumped out of it and walked towards the green eyed girl. She turned with an adoring smile on her face. The man turned to Angela and took his hat off to her.
"Is this a friend of yours, darling?" He asked her. Clara looked quickly at Angela and nodded.
"Yes, yes she is"
"Well, we must get going now, or we'll be late to our engagement party."
Angela noticed for the first time the ring that sat on Clara's finger. She felt a pang of anger, and jealousy. It was a beautiful ring, but she didn't deserve to belong to that man. She'd never felt these feelings of hate before. What in heaven was happening to her? She didn't know, but she knew for sure that she could not let her marry this man.
What she wished for was the forbidden fruit
Hidden behind a smile…
Angela smiled hollowly. This girl… her name was Clara? Clara smiled gently at Angela.
"I'll see you around, then" She said, and let the man take her by the hand and lead her way. She watched as he helped Clara climb inside the carriage with narrowed eyes. And before she knew what she was doing, she was following the carriage, tailing it into the night. She moved ahead of them and grabbed a new dress from a store. She didn't care if she stole anymore. She re-did her hair and made herself look like a wealthy noblewoman. She would be one of the guests at their engagement party. After all, they said that any wedding visited by an angel was sure to be special… but Angela wasn't just any angel. She had a purpose, and would do anything to have that purpose.
To make the forbidden love between-an angel and a human- happen…
All she had to do was destroy everything.
Angela followed the carriage to the ball and slipped inside with the crowd. Pretty soon, the couple appeared at the top of the balcony, smiling and waving happily. Angela was yet again entranced by the girl's smile. They were both holding two glasses of champagne.
"Thank you all for coming" The man spoke. "As you know, this wonderful moment has been coming for a while now. There will be no happier moment in our lives until a week from now when I finally take this wonderful woman to be my wife. Clara is everything I've ever wanted in a woman, and I was thrilled when she felt the same way."
"Shall we all propose a toast?" Clara asked the man.
"Yes." He raised his glass. "To love in all its glory"
"To love in all its glory" The guests echoed.
I'll abandon my pure heart
If I'm allowed to live and love you…
Angela left the party quietly, before anyone even knew she was there. She had to think of something. She couldn't stay the way she was now, as a woman. She had to find a way to turn herself into a man… somehow, anyway, anything she could do to break up their marriage. Clara couldn't fall in love with this guy. Either way, turning herself into a man wouldn't guarantee anything, but it was worth a shot. She had to do something.
It was an odd thing when an angel fell in love. It was even odder when it was with a human, because all the new emotions were different. She did have something of what humans would call a boyfriend, who was waiting for her up in heaven, but upon seeing Clara, he didn't matter anymore. She would give him up. She would give anything up for her.
I won't hesitate to cut off these wings
Let me surrender myself to the Devil.
