Suffering and Promise

As the strongest Angel and the Prideful devil continues to clash with each other.

Inside Azrael's mind he starts to battle with his own demon.

-------

Where am I?

am I speaking to myself?

I remember that I keep on crying a few moments ago..

I blacked out and I cant remember what happens after that.

All I know is that I'm on a lot of pain and anger I had the urge to kill anyone who will be on my sight.

But why I'm feeling all this hatred? I can't control it.

A reflection of myself with a pure black eyes and being covered with black shadows shows up in from of me and ask me a question.

Black Reflection: "Is this what you wanted? Do you want to continue with this rage?"

Azrael: "Wh-wh-why am I talking to myself? how come that you look like me?"

Black Reflection: "That is not the point here. Do you like the feeling having this rage?"

Azrael: "I-i-i dont know. As of now I like the feeling of being a lot more stronger and I think I can destroy anyone"

Black Reflection: "So that was your response... I see, you want to continue"

Azrael: "Continue with what? answer me!"

Black Reflection: "Dont ask... dont think about anything else... this was your choice... think only about yourself..."

Azrael: "Tell me. do you know the reason why am I crying? why I'm feeling some sadness and pain?"

Black Reflection: "I cannot answer that. Only I can do is to ease you pain by increasing this rage and hatred and you wont remember or felt anymore pain"

"No! Az! Don't forget us......."

A small voice coming from someone that is slowly fading.

I was wondering who or where that voice came from. I just heard it a few moments but now I cannot hear it again.

I already forgot about that voice and return back to the black reflection on mine that was speaking with me.

Azrael: "What is that? did you hear something?"

Black Reflection: "If you want to ease all your pain. just focus on me and dont even try to think about anything else."

Azrael: "Wait I'm still confuse. how did this all happen. why am I here?"

Black Reflection: "too many questions. and nothing can be answered"

I'm feeling a bit heavy and guilt inside me and I cannot explain what kind of feeling is this.

My tears started to fall again and i saw a small flame that is starting to show a little light on this dark place.

I looked at the flame and it starts to make my heart feel more pain

"What is this? while the flame keeps on burning it hurts deep inside" I asked myself wondering.

"You need to believe on yourself Az. forget about the pain and make my memories cherish inside your heart with love. Let me fill your broken heart with warm ember"

A small voice coming from the flame.

"Whos that? a-a-a-nd how did you know my name? talk to me!" I was starting to have a bit a memories going thru my head.

A girl with a long flaming red hair suddenly shows right in front of Azrael.

She slowly lift her hands that touches Azrael's face and slowly wiping the tears falling on his face.

"Remember who you are. don't let this anger chain you forever with darkness and hatred"

The girl smiled and half of the whole area started to have a light. while on the other half he can still see his black reflection in shadows.

Black Reflection: "Is this really what you want?"

Azrael: "I think I know know where I am"

Black Reflection: "It's your choice. whether you want to continue suffering or you want to remove all the pain right now."

Azrael: "It is true, having a lot of power can sometimes forgot you about your pain and suffering so that you can destroy anything on your sight. But what comes after that??"

Black Reflection: "I dont understand what you are pointing with."

Azrael: "Nothing, you cannot understand since you are my reflection of suffering. you have all of my struggles and pain that is why you cant think about anything but destroy."

Black Reflection: "You can remove if you want and just focus on destroying everything."

Azrael: "No, You are part me. everyone has their on pain. everyone has to suffer but because of these, we can keep on learning and continue to improve ourselves"

"I thought I lost and forgot everything. but thank you Uriel. you save me from my own demon. I will never forget you and you will be my strenght"

Azrael said while recovering everything and removing all the black shadows.

The last thing that he saw on this illusion was his black reflection smiling at him.

On the place far from Azrael's location, A girl started glowing her eyes

and a very bright light start to shine upon that girl.

and it turns out to be Luna.

the girl that Azrael first met when he comes to this world.

Her father, Philip lose his consciousness and falls to the ground by the presence of his daughter.

But her mother whos blind still remained conscious but cannot what was happening.

But even though she cannot see. This presence had a short feedback from his memories.

It is familiar to her and it seems that she encountered it before.

Lynn: "Luna! can you hear me Luna!"

Luna: "Mother. I dont understand what I'm feeling right now. I'm hearing a lot of whispering voices. It seems like they were calling for me."

Lynn: "Luna. Please be careful. I know this kind of feeling. This is his presence. the one who saved me before"

Luna: "What are you talking about mother?"

Lynn: "He's coming back! and I know it. he will fullfil his promise!"
