Chapter 8


"Helping was never going to be enough!" Kylie yells tears in her eyes.


"Hey guys stop this, I am here now and that's all that matters." I try to help.


"I just wanted you to be safe." Kylie whispers


"I'm safe now."


"You'll never be safe, at least not with her." Kylie points an accusing finger at Erika. "She always ruins everything and even that day when we were happy she comes along and kills you." More tears stream down her eyes.


"I didn't kill him! He wasn't supposed to be listening I couldn't help that." Erika defends herself.


"You didn't have to walk into the store that day."


"I cared too much!"


"Guys! How about we do what we came here for." I just wanted all this fighting to stop. But even as I try to get them to stop they keep at their bickering.


"I literally hate you, you have no idea." Kylie continues.


"I don't even care about that to be honest." Before Erika could reply all of a sudden there is one of those demons on top of Kylie and Erika was screaming. Erika takes out a silver arrow and shoots it straight at the demon and then poof it's gone, but that wasn't all of them, we were surrounded. Kylie gets up from the floor wiping the dirt from her clothes.


"Um thanks, what are we going to do?"


"I don't know, there are too many, we don't even have that many arrows." Erika replies to Kylie.


"Erika! Watch out!" I scream but it was too late because one of the demons had grabbed Erika from behind.


"You are coming with us back to where you belong, with your daddy." The demon's voice was disoriented and scratchy. I turned around to see a swirl of black; it looked like the portals I made but instead of white it was black and smoky.


"What the hell is that?" I ask.


"The portal to Hells; we are in between Heaven and Hell, just do as I say. I am going to shoot the demon dragging Etekah and then you are gonna grab her then grab my arm and just do that." Before I have time to reply Kylie takes out another silver arrow and shoots the demon holding onto Erika who was almost inside the portal. I run at full speed, grabbing her and getting back to Kylie grabbing her arm. Kylie wings are then out and she is lifting us into the air. The demons screeching below, trying to jump and grasp onto Kylie's wings but we are too high up into the sky now.


"Oh my god!" I say closing my eyes, I was super afraid of heights.


"Oh get used to it, how can you be scared of heights when you use to have wings too?"


"I don't remember that so how can I not be afraid?"


"Get used to it then honey." Kylie says laughing and Erika's eyes were lighted up.


"Having fun?" I ask laughing at Erika.


"It's an experience I have never experienced before."


"You don't get used to it." Kylie answers her.


"Thank you by the way, at first I thought you were gonna just let me go."


"Now what kind of friend would I be to Bailey if I did that?"


"Don't act like you saved me because of Bailey."


"Fine I guess through it all I kind of like you."


"Thank you."


"Awwww see that's the spirit Kylie." I laugh. "Where are we going now?"


"I think we should find a place to stay and wait for a little bit because I would like to avoid Etekah's little friends as much as possible."


"Hey I don't like them as much as you and just because I am half a demon doesn't mean I like Hell, I am mortal too. I didn't choose this life." Kylie doesn't reply after that because she looks like she was deep in thought. A couple seconds later we are landing in front of a small brick house.


"You guys were getting heavy anyway this is where I use to live back in 1578."


"I wasn't alive then."


"No it was the years after you burst into flames and I was asked to be down here on earth. Dean lived in here with me. I wonder if someone lives here now; only one way to find out though." She climbs up the steps to the door and knocks on it. A teen with short brown hair answers the door.


"Hi is your parents here?" Kylie asks in a sweet voice.


"Yeah hold on, Mom!" They teen screamed for her mom.


"Faith what is it? Who is at the door? Oh hi can I help you?" The little girl looked just like her mom with the same short brown hair, the only thing different about them was their eyes. Her mom had dark green eyes and the little girls were almost a gold color that reminded me of the demons. There was something oddly familiar about this woman.


"Hello we are lost and we have nowhere else to stay and I was wondering if you would allow us to settle down here for the night." Kylie uses her charm.


"Sure." The mom says as she steps aside staring at me like she knew me.


"Sweetie what's your name?" The woman turns to asks Erika.


"My name is Erika, ma'am."


"No your real name."


"I don't know what you are talking about."


"I know what you are; I see it in your eyes, just like the man I had little Faith with."


"I will handle this Erika." Kylie steps in front of the women. "We are just three lost teens looking for shelter and you are glad to give it to us."


"That just shows to prove I was right." The woman says as Kylie just stares at her in shock. "My name is Sophie and I am Balies's mom and I was shunned from Heaven for loving a demon too."


"Mom?" I ask confused.


"Yes I am your mom, Zeus shunned me for loving a demon down on earth and when I was shunned I went and had a baby with Fred, Faith's dad. Faith stopped aging at the age of eighteen and there is no answer as to why."


"I stopped aging at the age of eighteen too five hundred years ago."


"You are the girl my boy loved and was shunned for too, I guess it runs in the family."


"Yeah except I never live past nineteen because every time I reincarnate I fall back in love with Erika or I learn 'bout myself and then I die. For some reason though the curse has been changed and if we don't fall in love Erika will die and I will go back to Heaven but if I do I will die and not come back. We have come to maybe make a deal with Zeus."


"It will be hard to negotiate with Zeus but it will be possible. You have the eye don't you?"


"Yes it allows me to go through portals through different times and I think I can go up to Heaven."


"I want to come with you, I will bring Faith maybe I can make a deal with him too, you know not all demons are bad and we have seen it for ourselves."


"How come you remember everything from when you were in Heaven and not me."


"There are different types of people in Heaven, you were The Watcher and you signed off on The Golden Paper vowing you would never fall in love with anyone from down on earth or you would suffer the consequences."


"The Golden Paper?"


"It's a paper people of Heaven sign when they have a certain duty, I never had to sign it, I was just someone that cleaned things, I wasn't so valuable. I am sure Zeus hated me anyway and was glad to get rid of me."


"Were you shunned before me?"


"Of course, I was shunned just few months after you were born."


"Why did you leave me like that?"


"I wasn't ready to be a mom and love really does conquer all. The man I was with I didn't really love."


"How did you even see Fred?"


"Your dad was a Watcher, runs in the family I guess. One day I was bored and I came to work with your dad and that is when I saw him. I was different then you though I actually snuck down on earth to see him. He was a great man; there was no reason for him to even be in hell."


"So Faith is my half-sister? I have a sister who is half demon?"


"That would be correct."


"We should think of something we could negotiate with them." Erika steps in.


"I guess we have a change in plans then?" Kylie says.


"What about those demons? They have been chasing us."


"I have so many of those silver arrows. We can use those to kill them." Faith speaks for the third time today. "Follow me." She grabs a key that was sitting on the counter and we all follow Faith as she leads us down a hallway and into what must be her bedroom. It was an ordinary bedroom, the walls painted purple and posters of celebrities and pictures of her and her friends and mom. She opens her closet which was filled with coats and shoes and moves them over to reveal a door.


"Hmmm I don't remember that being there when I lived her." Kylie mutters.


"I found it one day when I was exploring, there was a key just sitting on my nightstand and I went in and there were weapons." She unlocks the door and it opens with a creek, she gestures us in first which I slowly step in. There were different types of weapons everywhere, all made of silver. Guns, swords, knives, bows and areas, just so many different kinds.


"Where did you get all these?" I ask interested.


"I just said I found it here, it was already here when I was exploring."


"This is amazing, we could really use this." Kylie picks up a sword and moves it around.


"Careful, these are deadly to all of us, a stab to the heart or head will kill you and just a scratch will cause pain."


"Do you not think I've been cut with one of these before? I know the pain."


"How did you get cut?" I ask.


"I wanted to feel the pain you went through every time you died. I was hurt." She pulls up her sleeve to show all of us the scar she had. "The pain was so unbearable I passed out."


"Why would you do that to yourself?" I grab her arm to get a closer look and she winces pulling her arm away and moving the sleeve back down.


"I was hurt after your death; I was done with it all I just wanted to die with you."


"But I came back every time."


"But you would never love me; I knew that was probably my only chance with you." She comes up to me grabbing my face into her hands. "You are my one and only love." She turns away to blink away a tear and then let's go of my face, walking out of the room that held all the weapons, leaving me just staring after her.


"Just let her go." Erika says. "She just needs time to herself."


"Well that happened." Faith mutters under her breath.


"So when are we going to make a portal into Heaven?"


"We will go in three days, it gives us time to think of a plan and I think Kylie's plan to show you around London and Bulgaria would be a good idea. I think it will be fun even if I don't believe it will restore any of your memories. You saw all the times you have died all you need to remember is your life in Heaven, the thing that started it all." Erika explains.
