POV: Cancer

For the past day, Scorpio's been mad and won't talk to me. I honestly can't understand why. We both said that we could tell the other anything, and so I did. I don't know why he's making a big fuss about it. I had liked him, a lot actually, but if he had felt the same he would've told me. 

I was playing Janga with some of the others when Leo came in. After the game, we decided to look in the attic for Gemarya and Capricorn. It's been a day since they went missing, they were probably starved by now. 

We made it up to the attic. It turned out to be really big so we decided to split up. Virgo and Libra are the best of friends so they went together, of course. Aquarius wanted to go by himself and there was no persuading him otherwise, so we let him. Gemyni and Aries just kind of drifted off together, getting distracted by putting on some armor that they found. So that just left Leo and me.

We decided to walk the way nobody else did. We walked around the trapdoor and went into a hallway that didn't look like the others. I tugged on Leo's sleeve, "Why did we choose the different hallway? Cause that bodes so well." He just kept walking further into the hallway. 

The lights flickered and some of them didn't even work! I looked closer to the wall, oh great, bloodstaines, cause this was just going to end fantastic! "Hey, Leo, I found bloodstaines and I decided to touch them and they were still wet. Do you think they could be Gemarya's or Capricorn's?" Leo just shrugged and kept looking through doors. 

"What is wrong with him?", I thought to myself, "He was just fine a couple seconds ago. Maybe he wants to talk about it?" I ran up to him, "You seem down, what's wrong?" He looked over and then down his shoulder at me, "It's nothing." Then he went back to looking straight ahead. "Of course he won't talk about it, his pride is too high for that." I let out an indignant breath, "Well if he won't talk he probably needs to. I'll try again." I walked in front of him, "Hey!" He looked away. 

I was filled with rage, "Look at me!" I shouted loud enough for the other groups to probably hear us. "What is wrong? We will not be going anywhere until you spill. I have literally nothing planned." Leo had an annoyed look on his face, "Why should I tell you?" I narrowed my eyes, "Fine, does it have anything to do with me? If not then I have no business knowing. Is that better?" Leo sat down on the purple carpeted floor, "I guess, and it kind of has something to do with you. Well, more like your best friend." I facepalmed, "What has asshole done this time?" Leo laughed a little, "He is an asshole, isn't he? Well he's just been awful lately. And it's only to me! I've just been thinking about what I could've done to him. I can't come up with anything." 

I was about to answer when the floor rolled up like a wave. The pictures on the walls shook. I face planted on the floor, "Shit!" I cried out in pain. Leo looked down at me, "I would say that's a proper reaction. Roll over I wanna see!" I rolled over, "I broke my nose." Leo took one look at the blood and threw me over his shoulder saying, "Crap, crap, crap. Too much blood! Let's go back and find Virgo and Libra. They are the best at this kind of thing."  

I bounced along as Leo walked at a quick pace. "You better not stain my shirt.", he said sternly. I smiled slyly, he gave me a great idea. I smiled, he gave me a great idea. I grabbed the end of his light blue shirt and blew my nose as hard as I could. "That feels so much better now." Leo brushed my wing out of his face, "What did I just tell you?!" I played innocent, "But it feels so much better now. And I can breath through my nose a bit better now." Leo pulled out one of my feathers and handed it to me, "You can use this to blow your nose, it's big enough."

The feather was about three inches wide and about a foot long. "I never realized how big my feathers are. How big are yours?", I yanked out one of Leo's before he could protest. His was about a foot and a half long and six inches wide. "Dang, this is long." I brought Leo's feather up to my face to blow my nose. When I was done with it I tried to put it back where I had pulled it from. "Gross, don't do that. Just put in on the ground. I don't need any more of your blood on me."

I dropped the feathers and watched as they gracefully twirled to the floor.

POV: Virgo 

Libra and I were looking for a secret door. Perhaps Cap and Gemarya had got trapped in one of something like that. Libra headed back over to me, his phone in hand. "Hey I got a text from Leo asking if we know how to fix a broken nose." I turned around to face Libra, "Well? What are you waiting for? You know that we can! It's simple." Libra looked back at his phone, "Let's meet back at the trapdoor." I nodded. I nodded and we started heading over.

We were almost at the door when I saw two masses curled on the floor, breathing heavily in the opposite hallway. I gasped and ran over in their direction. "Capricorn! Capricorn! Gemarya!" They looked so frail. There were large bags under their closed eyes. Capri has her head rested on Gemarya's chest. His hand was on her shoulder, his thumb lightly caressed a loose strand of her hair.  They didn't move when I shouted their names. I knelt down next to them and whispered, "Capri? Gemy?" They still didn't stir. I tried shaking them. When they still didn't show any sign of life I called Libra over. 

"Libra! LIBRA! I found them!", I was shaking. This was terrifying. I didn't even notice the tears until Libra said, "Hush, no reason to morn yet. Let's get them back to the trapdoor." Libra grabbed Gemarya by his shoulders and started quickly heading to the trapdoor. I followed with Capricorn dragging along behind me.

When we made it to the door we were bombarded with questions from Gemyni. Everyone had made it back before us. "So, Virgo, how do emotions feel?", Aries teased. I lifted Capricorn into Aries's open arms. She fell backwards. "Take her!Take her back! She's too heavy!", Aries shouted. I laughed and took Capricorn back, "Is she too heavy for you? Okay, I'll take her back, smalls." Aries narrowed her eyes. I was laughing with everyone else when I sneezed.

When I sneeze, I sneeze hard. Gemarya and I looked at each other, eyes wide. Gemarya started pushing me through the trap door. "Code rusty pipes! Move it boys!" Aries shoved the guys out of the way. 

We hustled into my room. Taurus knocked on the door, "What's going on?" Aries opened the door and said, "Welcome to shark week." Taurus sat on the corner of my bed, "But?" We nodded. Gemarya said, "It's weird isn't it?" We all agreed.

Angles and Demons don't have reproductive systems. Us females stoped having periods after we died and woke up in Judgment Hall. "That would have to mean that you're not an Angel, you're still alive. You aren't dead. Let's ask Mrs. Angelica what this means.", Gemyni suggested. 

I stopped in the doorway, "If you guys don't have sandwiches....where am I going to get one?!" They all looked at one an other. Taurus scratched the back of her head, "Maybe Mrs. Angelica has one...?" We all started to Mrs. Angelica's room. 

Aries knocked and Mrs. Angelica opened the door. She took one look at me and let us all inside. She ran over to a large white and gold chest at the foot of her queen sized bed. She pulled out a box of something and handed it to me. "Go clean up, dear. You can use my bathroom over there.

I walked over to the door she had pointed to. There were powdery white vines that made up the walls. They ended in a dome. The leaves were gold and were used as shelves. It was strangely peaceful. 

I cleaned up and walked back out. Mrs. Angelica started to explain, "So, Virgo, you aren't dead. Do you have any memories of your past life?" I shook my head and she continued, "You didn't have a past life. You aren't an Angel or a Demon, but you aren't human either. You were born immortal. You are a Hamadryad. You are a spirit of nature. What you see in the mirror is simply an illusion put there by me. When we were choosing who would be a new Savior we knew that we needed to gain back favor with Mother Nature because we knew that we couldn't defeat Abaddon without her help. To do that, we promised to include one of her children. Her children are extremely powerful. She gave us you. You were so eager to join. Since you are one of the Ten Children of Nature we had to keep you safe. We decided to strip you of your memories and creat the illusion that you were a simple Angel. We kept your name of course, which means The Virgin. Each of the Ten Children of Nature have a name that is cleansed to prove their purity." 

I was still confused about a couple of things, "Why is my period just restarting now? Can you give me my memories and old appearance?" 

Mrs. Angelica sucked in a breath, "I gave your memories to your mother back on Earth. And the illlusion spell is wearing off."  I thought about it for a while, "Is there a way to get them all back?" Mrs. Angelica nodded, "You'll have to go to Earth and retrieve them from your mother. You can bring a friend. And I'll start the process on removing the spell when you're ready. Who would you like to bring?" I already knew exactly who to bring, "Ma'am, I already have someone in mind. Could you start the process now?" Mrs. Angelica nodded, "Let's go into the ballroom. We're going to need a bigger space for this. You should also go and get who you want to bring." 

I nodded and ran to go find Libra.

•••••••••••••

After explaining everything to Libra and everyone else, we started the two hour long process. 

At first it didn't hurt too much, it just felt like being wrapped in a fuzzy carpet. After thirty minutes of being wrapped in  the fuzzy carpet, the carpet started to grow thorns. It was still not that painful. Soon my skin felt like it had been rubbed against the bark of a tree for a hour. Then I heard two thuds behind me. I looked back and saw two white wings laying on the ground. 

The pain became too much and I fainted.

•••••••••••••

When I woke up, the first thing I did was look at my hands. My fingers were long and spindaly. My nails were sharp. My skin was a mix of green and light brown. I felt my hair. It was straight and flowy. but also stuck up like sticks in other places. Taurus handed me a mirror. My eyes were green like leaf buds in spring. I had a mix of carmel and chocolate-colored hair. I had designs like carvings scattered in random places, but that were mostly on the side of my face and along my shoulders. I had pointy ears, a small nose, and full lips.

Looking at myself all together, I was beautiful. I looked like an elegant tree in a way. 

Mrs. Angelica helped me up off of the ground.

"Are you ready, Virgo of The Ten Children?" 

"Yes I am."
