Chapter 4 An angel offer and an important decision

Xenovia pov

I have been talking with both the cats and my mother for a while now. While I have been recovering, though, I have been told to never do that without backup ever again since I nearly died from it which I have agreed to. Now it's been about two months since that fight I was finally given the green light. To get up and move again, though I have not wasted my time, I finally learned to speak and write in Italian, Japanese and French.

It seems I am now learning at a faster rate even in my class that mom makes on the supernatural. I not only remember it in full but I have blown through two years worth of class in about two weeks. It was shocking to my mother. We have no idea what is going on with me. She always tells me it is a blessing.

Now Kuroka and Shirone are stuck to me like glue. They are now more determined to be stronger so that they can help me. Though what shocked me was the angel known as Gabriel wished to speak with me in a few days. Since my health got better and to offer something to me to think heavens' most beautiful women will be coming here. it made me blush pretty hard to be honest.

Mom told me she will increase my sword training after Gabriel's visit since she wants to slowly ease me back into my physical routine. Though it is just busy work at this point for me, I walk into the bathroom and get what I need done in there. Return to the living room and sit down on the couch with shirone cimb into my lap as a cat and sleep with Kuroka not far behind with her sleeping on my head.

I've been watching this show called Melissa ten. It is pretty cool how she turns into different fantasy and sci-fi creatures but I have a feeling if it ever was rebooted , this would turn into hot garbage. Watch it until my bedtime finishes up with the season finale with the ring finally being removed. I can't wait for the sequel series. It says it will come out in a few days and it is going to be shown the first two episodes time to bivio it.

Walk into the kitchen to eat dinner with Kuroka and Shirone, talk with mom and get some sleep. Those few days start to pass in a blur but what weird me out was the dreams they got more vivid.

I saw an entire civilization rise and fall worshiping that serpent snake thing. See what must be the higher up angels talking to it and various other factions. Some of the strongest ones seem to try to gain favor with it. This does not make sense given what I know of their history they would never try to do something like this. It also seems that no matter what I have been looking into I can't get answers on what this is like it does not exist at all then why do I have dreams? Get Towards the end of the dream now. That little girl shows up again and they have a fun talk. It seems like they are friends.

wake up to be with my cats. They call me mistress at times now and make me realize I have certain kinks. Us in are usually bad sleep positions. I know that I should tell mom about these dreams but something in my gut tells me not to for whatever reason.

I Walked down to the living room and mom told me Gabriel will be here later in the afternoon. Finally getting to meet her, time seems to pass slowly until a bright light enters the living area. What stood before me was Gabriel and I now know my type and another kink for whatever reason I like angel wings a bit too much to be honest.

She smiled at me and said "Hello there Xenovia Quarta, it 's an honor to meet you".

I bow quickly and say "no the honor to meet someone as gorgeous as you is truly an honor".

The lovely Kuroka and Shirone look very angry and pout say "baka". Look at Gabriel with a death glare.

Gabriel looks at Xenovia with a slight blush and looks at the two cat girls not understanding why they look at her like that. Gabriel thanked me for the compliment and followed it by saying "let talk about what I came here to offer you this".

See her wave her hand as a stack of cards land on the table. She picked one up and showed it to me. It was a play card with chess pieces in the center and in the background a divine object I think clearing her throat.

Gabriel continued "these are known as the divine chess playing cards; this was a joint creation between heaven, the underworld and some divine factions. See we need the perfect person for this and while you will be healed by the high class angel we sent. Something shocking was found out about you even though you are human. What is inside of you is light, demonic and divine energy in a mass amount, a terrifying realization to be honest. With it in perfect balance somehow even though it is sealed to a degree. We think it has to do with that;".

She pointed to my back.

Say "you now have a tattoo on your back of a serpent eating its tail. This whole thing is insane really. So if you take this offer it will alter your whole being and you will be stronger, live long, have more power etc. You get the picture and I want you Xenovia to be the first user of them. We have no idea what will happen so this decision is all up to you and we understand if we say no.

Stop her with my hand and say "What if I say yes".

Gabriel smiles and says "know that you will have a steady supply of these cards since we really want to test them out. With permission to have your own faction in the heavens with it be a joint force regionzed by heaven, the underworld and divine factions that help us. Your rank will be below micheal you will have to give it a name though. I understand if this is a lot to take in so i will be expecting your answer by the end of the week ok.

I nod to her.

Gabriel smiles and says "well it was great to meet you now I must leave. I leave you to your thoughts". Disappear in a veil of light.

After that mom let me eat and I watched some tv before going back to study and train. Since I know my mother is going to start to train me harder first thing tomorrow morning. Think about it, that voice I have not heard at all since then.

While taking a bath, look in the mirror and see the tattoo. It is a feathered serpent with twelve wings on it the color is a light brown, there are small detail lines that go through it. Their design is like an insane multitude of zig and zag lines, that at the top of its head turn into a yin yang symbol they are black and white in color. Where it bite down on its own tail where the teeth are a blue color is there its tail is gold yellow color. Where the bite is, it turns green like in my hair. It is based on my hair and eye color minus the black and white. Now I think about it.

At the end of the next day my swordsmanship train was brought to a close. Well I have it all, memorizes so just have to practice it and get the expernace by fighting mom. Though I will admit the offer has been on the back of my mind, something tells me to take it. This is a decision not taken lightly though. Thinking about it, my show is going to be on tomorrow. I'm looking forward to it. Going back to bed, letting my thoughts drift and going to sleep.

See that I am standing in a black void but before me is the energy Gabriel talk about. The yellow energy is swirl into a red energy to make orange. While in the center a multi color energy that is circle into a yin yang symbol. The combined red, yellow and orange energy goes into the center and changes it into that multi color energy. it looks like the yin yang symbol is there for balance would be my guess. I simply reached out with my hand and tried to touch it but the tattoo on my back began to glow though before I could finish reaching it.

I was woken up by my mother to get on for the day. I have sat down to watch the new show Melissa Power Force. It was pretty good so far. I can't wait for the next episodes.

Kuroka walks in and says "have you decided already".

Think on it I had to ask "what your opinion on it"

Kuroka sigh say" well personally I would never take it but that's because I am a Nekoshou and I hate to change myself just to be more powerful.

Hearing her thoughts I nod say "I am taking it but not for that reason not even because I was offered something great in return. It is because I want to be a stronger version of myself. With wisdom and experience, I hope to change into what I desire to become. I know something in my being tells me to take it as well. I never turn away from that since it help me out so many times already. In this short life that is how I survive that fight after all.

Kuroka nods and says "that's not a bad reason but I think you should at least think some more about it.

I nodded my head back while I waited for that to come. Little did I notice that my back glowed for a brief moment with the words "my first demand was finally met".

Ok next thing is going to be a vote for all you readers. With two short stories I made since I really have no place for them in the story at all they are going to be in the auxiliary chapter.
