Illumes Truth Part 5

Illumes POV:

That's Shadow? No way. That thing looks disgusting. How could that be him?

"Hey you, there's no way that's him. That thing creeps me out too much. It's almost like it's alive and beating."

The Angel: "It is a harsh truth that you need you to come to terms with. The fact that your friend is no more. That is him. He is no longer human."

I'm still coming to grips with this. I can't accept this. I can't accept that my buddy has turned into.... THAT.

"No way, he's not. Shadow is not that thing, he is not some kind of monster!"

The Angel sighs in resignation while saying: " Oh but he is, believe it or not. One thing I might have forgotten to mention to you is that he has not fully awaken yet."

I ask: "What do you mean?"

He then just gives a giggle... a giggle, really? Why does he laugh at the weirdest times. This angel might seem more human then the rest of us if not for the weird light and immortality. So anyway he continues talking while pointing at the orb.
