Episode 4- Welcome Home

I went home wondering how she still had her magic. When I was shunned, I lost every ability I had as an angel. Although, it was all replaced with the powers of a devil. If she was stripped of her halo and wings, then she basically wasn't an angel anymore. I still had to figure out where I was going to go. I had burned down my house so I couldn't go back there. I went onto my phone and tried to find a house for sale. "When did humans become so lazy"? I found one and went to the address. "Hello there", I said, walking up behind the lady in the drive way.

She jumped, "Oh sorry. I didn't see you there", she laughed. "Is this house still for sale". It was a 3 story mansion with 13 bedrooms and 8 bathrooms. "Yes, it is up for $789k". "I'll buy it, with a wish". "I'm sorry ma'am but-". "What do you want in life, Mckenna Hathaway"? "How do you know my-"? "Fame, fortune, friends"? "I want to be a famous singer. But my music is horrible. My career won't take off". "Done, I'll make that happen... in exchange for the house".

Her phone started dinging repeatedly. She checked it with a smile on her face. "My music on every app now has millions of likes... how did you"? "So can I have the house"? "Keep it", she said, handing me the keys along with a stack of paper work. After signing them, I handed them back to her. "Have a nice life". I walked into the fully furnished house. "This is gonna be great". I took a shower and clothed myself. Luckily all the clothes in the closet were nice.

They were also my size. Three days passed and I felt someone summoning me. "Someone trying to deal with the devil"? I snapped my fingers and I was there. "Hi... Satan". It was Angelica. She was sitting inside an abandoned building, I scoffed and tried to walk away. "Please... don't go", she said, grabbing my arm. "Why do you want to talk to a monster", I asked, hanging my head. "I apologize, I didn't mean what I said". "Just don't go". I grabbed her hand and helped her get up.

"Let's go". "Where are we going"? "Back to my house". As we arrived there she asked, "You got a new house"? "Yes... the other one burned down due to personal reasons. I had a feeling you would return so I...". I opened the door to her room. The bed had white and yellow bedding and the windows had white curtains. There was a sign that said angel on the wall, next to a cross. "I had to have someone put that in here. I also can't enter the room". "Thank you, I love it. but one thing is-".

She walked up to the cross and put it upside down. I sighed and walked into the room. "Thank you, it's pretty nice here", I smiled. "We wouldn't need anything like that here anymore". "Welcome home Angelica". I got ready for bed before coming to check on her. I heard crying from outside the door. I knocked and heard nothing but sobs. I opened the door. "They're back and they won't go away"!

She was hunched over on the floor and her wings were back out. "It b- burns"! Her wings looked scorched and were missing feathers. "Oh my devil".
