Alicia's Point of View...
Wait. Where am I? I saw I was on a street. I was in front of 7-eleven. I was getting ready to walk across the street but...it hit me. I heard a scream. Tires screeching against the road. My name. It was being called out. I looked behind me and saw...CJ? Tears filled his eyes and he dropped to the ground. He landed on his knees and sobbed. What happened? I looked back to the scream. I saw a life less body. Her eyes were open. Wait...that life less body...its...its mine?! A white flash consumed my vision. I then came to darkness. The reason being was because my eyes were closed. I opened them and looked around. I was in a cell. I was chained to a wall. I was in a little cell. The door was on the other side of the cell. I tried to stand but my legs felt weak. No. I have to get up! I tried to stand only this time I used the wall to help me. I walked myself over the bars that kept me from getting out. I held on to the bars and saw a guy with dirty blonde hair looking at me. His hair was going in different directions. He had brown eyes. He looked sad. Why? His clothes were all black. He had a sleeveless black vest with it unbuttoned exposing his chest. His chest was wrapped in bandages. His pants were baggy and ripped too. His black sneakers looked fine though. Why was he blushing? He came to the cell and looked me straight in the eye. He had devil wings, horns on his head, and a devil tail.
"Well...do you know why you're here?" He asked. I shook my head. Then I remembered the guy that pushed me off the cloud. Was it him that pushed me?
"Because a guy pushed me off the edge?" I asked. He thought for a moment.
"Yes and no." He said.
"May I have an explanation?" I asked.
"Yes because my friend did push you off the edge. No because your head crossed over the line to Hell." He said.
"B-But it was just my head-"
"Well rules are rules-" He stopped himself. He then widened his eyes and panicked. "MORGAN! GET OVER HERE! BRING DEREK TOO!" He shouted. A girl with a long black dress, medium blonde hair, and brown eyes. She brought over a guy with shoulder length brown hair with brown hair. He had on a black vest and baggy shorts. Both the boy and the girl had devil wings, devil horns, and devil tails.
"DO YOU REALIZE NOW DUMMIES?!" The Morgan girl shouted. Derek looked confused.
"N-No-?"
"You know we'll get another punishment for this right?!" The guy with the crazy hair said.
"Josh. Explain?" Derek asked.
"You do notice that she DOESN'T HAVE ANY WINGS RIGHT?!" Josh shouted. Derek looked at me and started panicking.
"OH NO! WE'RE DEAD!" Derek shouted.
"STUPID! WE'RE ALREADY DEAD!" Morgan shouted.
"I know but we'll get a beating!" Derek shouted.
"It's too late to try and help her escape and avoid punishment..." Josh said.
"First we kill two birds with a stone, now we captured a girl with no wings! DAMMIT!" Derek shouted.
"W-what?" I asked. Morgan looked at me as the two boys argued.
"You're still new... basically, hell established a rule saying if we captured a new angel with no wings, then the people that captured that angel will get a punishment." Morgan explained.
"S-so...since one of you captured me, that person will get a punishment right?" I asked just to make sure. She nodded. "Sucks to be you..." I muttered under my breath. Josh glared at me.
"What was that goodie goodie?" Josh asked. I held my hands up in defense.
"N-Nothing! Nothing!" I said.
"Yeah sure..." Josh said give me a cold stare.
"Well...he called us." Derek said.
"Great! JUST FUCKING GREAT!" Josh shouted.
"Well I'm not in on your little situation. I was the one providing food for her so you guys are on your own!" Morgan said unlocking the cage and putting handcuffs on my wrists. I'm guessing this is for me not to escape.
"MORGAN!" Josh shouted.
"Hey! First its killing two birds with a stone, now its capturing this girl! Don't put any blame on me! Now! I'm going to treat her like a lady and take her out of this cell!" Morgan said tugging me away. I heard a crack. I turned around and saw that Josh punched a hole in the wall. Dear god help me...
"U-Um..." I stuttered.
"Yes?" Morgan asked with a smile.
"H-He killed two birds with one stone?" I asked.
"Yep." Morgan said sadly. "She was nice too..."
"The birdy was nice?" I asked.
"You don't get the saying?" Morgan asked. I shook my head.
"N-No...?" I said.
"Well, basically killing two birds with a stone is basically saying you killed two people at the same time..." Morgan explained. I stopped walking.
"W-Why would he kill two people?!" I asked.
"Its part of our job." Morgan said.
"W-Wha-?"
"If you're put into heaven, you're an angel. If you're put into hell, you're a devil. But Devils and Angels have jobs here. A Devil's job is to find people on earth who has done something bad, and deliver Karma onto there life." Morgan explained. "So it would be an equal punishment for them."
"O-Oh..." I said looking down. "D-do you by chance, know how I died?"
"That I do. You were killed in a car crash by three girls drunk driving. One of them was killed in the crash, but you...you were instantly dead when you were struck." Morgan explained.
"That's how I ended up in heaven..." I said. But I have a feeling more people were effected by my death...Morgan led me to a long and big hall. At the end, there was a man on a throne looking at us and smirking. He had long blue hair and red eyes.
"Why thank you Morgan!" He said. Morgan bowed.
"You're welcome master." Morgan said stepping next to him.
"Hmm...so...you're the one with no wings huh?" He said. I nodded.
"If I may ask! I can tell you're the ruler of Hell, right?" I asked and he nodded.
"Yes. My name is Dante. But...you will address me as Lord Dante." He commanded. I nodded.
"Okay...Lord Dante." I said. He nodded and clapped.
"There we go! Now, I would like to know your name." Lord Dante said. I nodded.
"My name is Alicia." I said bowing. Lord Dante smiled.
"That's a beautiful name. I'm terribly sorry my men captured you. They will get a punishment after your Lord comes to get you." Lord Dante said. I nodded. Morgan signaled me to come to her. I did so and she un-cuffed my wrists. We waited for "My lord" to come for me. As I waited I was thinking about that dream I had. My life less body...spattered with blood...CJ was crying...w-wait...if devils can go down to earth, then can't angels go too? I heard a large bang come from outside. Morgan and I sprung to our feet with shock.
"M-My lord! What was that?" Morgan asked holding onto his throne. I held on as well, but I was on the other side.
"Girls, get behind the throne. Now." Lord Dante commanded. We did as told and we peered around the corner off the chair to see whats happening. Lord Dante was standing while cracking his knuckles. And monster busted threw the doorway and growled. Dante smirked and taunted the beast to get closer. The beast leaped at him but Lord Dante held up his hand and shot out a purple lightning bolt and blew the beast to pieces. I felt Morgan grab my arm and tug it. I looked back and saw a beast growling at us.
"Don't. Move." Morgan whispered. I stared straight at the thing. It was looking at me. But...it had silver eyes. It's blind...but I know it can sense us. I guess Lord Dante doesn't see it because hes busy battling things.
"Alicia...you need to leave...they feed off of angels that can't fly..." Morgan whispered. I nodded. I have to trust what she says. I began to crawl backwards slowly. But the beast kept coming towards me. It can smell me...I stood up and shivered. It started growling louder. Lord Dante noticed me in trouble but he had beasts around him. I felt so weak. I can't do anything... all of a sudden the beast pushed me to a corner and growled more. I shut my eyes and waited for the impact. But...nothing is happening? I felt his nose rub against my stomach. I opened my eyes and the thing was whimpering. W-Why is he-?
"MOVE IT!" Josh shouted as he flew towards me. He pulled me out of the way before a different beast could lunge at me. He held me in his arms and looked at me.
"J-Josh-?"
"I don't care if I get a punishment now." Josh said as he flew up and broke the sun roof. He flew down a road with me still his arms. I felt like I was going to slip from his grasp. He ducked under a tree and covered my mouth. He held me close. But I could hear a heart beat... We both peered our head around the corner. A dark purple, large eagle was what we were looking at. It was trying to get my scent. Josh flew up into the tree and kept me close as the eagle flew away. As soon as it did I hit Josh's arm until he let me go. "O-OW! What the heck?!"
"Why did you capture me?!" I asked. He rubbed his arm and glared.
"I JUST SAVED YOUR LIFE AND YOU'RE ASKING ME THAT?!?!" He shouted. I covered his mouth.
"Dear god...! Any louder, I bet the people on earth can hear you!" I whispered to him. That eagle could come back!
"Well sorry!" Josh whispered back. I looked around and sighed. I sat facing away from him. "Hey I just saved your life. Don't I get a thank you?" I looked at him over my shoulder and looked down.
"Thank you." I said as I faced him.
"Whats wrong?" He asked with concern in his voice. I looked at him and gave him a "Really?" look.
"I just got captured, then I was freed, and now things are after me because I'm an Angel in Hell! Not to mention I was killed by a car and two girls died in that accident! One girl in the car died and I died!" I stated as I looked down. Josh scoffed.
"Humans say that its an 'accident'..." Josh mumbled. I looked at him and raised an eyebrow.
"What did you say?" I asked.
"Humans say that its an 'accident'" Josh said so I could hear.
"Huh?" I asked.
"Devils and Angels have a job here. Devils bring bad Karma to those on earth who have been bad. Angels bring good Karma to those on earth who have been good. The punishment for the girls was a punishment by a devil...but your death...you.....you....." Josh's hair covered his eyes as he looked down.
"'Me' what?" I asked. He still wasn't looking at me.
"You.....Your...death. Your death was an accident." Josh said. Huh?!
"My death. Was and accident?" I asked. He nodded still not looking at me.
"Yes. A devil came back saying he was bringing bad karma onto those girls but he didn't realize you were walking in front of the car. He killed you by accident...and you didn't do anything bad...that's a major punishment here down in hell." Josh said. I looked down. So...a devil caused my death.....?
"Do you know who this devil is?" I asked. Josh nodded.
"Yeah..."
"Who is it?" I asked. Josh looked at me with sad eyes.
"..." He said nothing. I put my hand on his hand and gave him a smile...
"Josh...please tell me who it was who killed me." I said again. Josh looked straight into my eyes.
"Me." Josh said. My smile disappeared.
"What?" I asked in confusion.
"The person who killed you. It was me. I caused those girls to drive right into you." Josh said. I looked at him in shock. It was him...I then changed how I looked at him from confusion to anger. I raised my hand to hit him but......I couldn't....he said it was by accident.....but...."Do it Angel. I deserve it." Josh said. He wanted me to slap him. I was getting ready to do it......but.....as soon as I swung hard.....I changed the pace so I only hit him softly. I saw his face become plastered with shock. I rubbed his cheek and I noticed there was tears coming down from my eyes. I rested my head on his chest. "Angel...whats your name..." he asked.
"Alicia..." I said while sobbing. I felt him wrap his arms around me and hold me close. "I'm so sorry Alicia..."
