Chapter 2. Heaven's Emissary

Above the chaos on Earth, above the death, screams and pains on Earth, above Earth itself.. a throne room made of countless sparkling stars, which in fact resembled the milky way galaxy, could be seen. Twenty-four beings which could stomp on the Asgardian gods, the Olympians and Egyptian gods like ants sat on chairs made of sparkling stars. Each of these twelve beings had six pairs of wings on their back.

"Holy! Holy! Holy! is the Lord God Almighty!"

Their voice boomed out like thunder. These were twenty-four Elders of Heaven. In front of them were two higher beings.. one looked like a middle eastern young man with long wavy hair which reached his shoulders, he had an amiable smile on his face and his eyes depicted nothing but love and care. Beside him was one whom even the Elders dare not gaze upon. His face was the very definition of the 'Sun' for it shone like a thousand sun. He turned to the Elders.

"Lucifer's minions has turned my creation against themselves. The thousand years we gave to Lucifer isn't over, yet at this rate humanity will cease to exist before the one thousand years has elasped."

"Father, what do you suggest we do? We can not send down any more Angels. Lucifer will be prepared for that, and even Michael and Sariel are not certain they can force back Lucifer, he was of higher rank nevertheless."

"Raphael and Uriel are still on Earth, strengthening the faith of the Church and believers. Gabriel awaits your command." One of the Elders spoke.

"Selaphiel has been guiding the prayers of the Church and believers non-stop. But it has been less frequent as many of our believers have deviated to the side of Lucifer or have perished. Barachiel has been assisting those in need of forgiveness before their death. Ariel who is in charge of nature and animals is now currently in anguish as he sits and watch as Lucifer lay waste to nature, animals and humans alike. Chamuel, Zadkiel and Metatron are assisting Raphael and Uriel. Sandalphon, Jophiel and Haniel are all in anguish. Almighty Creator, at this rate the war of Armageddon might fall in favor of Lucifer." Another Elder stated.

"Do you have no faith in my Father!?" The amiable young man rebuked the Elder.

"What of Azrael?" The supreme being spoke.

"He awaits your command to coordinate with Michael and Sariel to bring an end to this war, my Lord." Another Elder spoke.

"No. Man will be tested for a thousand years as stated in the scriptures. Nevertheless, I have decided to send a helper to my people. It shalt be Michael, Sariel nor Azrael. Nay, it shall be one born of Man. Call in Jegudiel." The supreme being said.

"As the Holy Creator commands."

"Holy! Holy! Holy! is the Lord God Almighty!"

Michaelis opened his eyes and the bright light pierced his eyes, causing him pain which made him shut it immediately.

"My dear son, open your eyes and behold the wonders of this place." A booming voice resounded around him. Michaelis slowly opened his eyes, and this time there was no piercing pain of any kind. He marveled at what he saw.

"Is this?.. is.. I'm I..?" Michaelis stuttered as his brain struggled to process what he was witnessing right now.

"Keep calm my son. No harm shall befall you here in Heaven." The supreme being spoke in a fatherly manner.

"WHAT!??" Michaelis freaked out! He really made it to heaven? Wasn't he supposed to be in hell for fighting and thinking of killing the demons? Isn't it recorded in the holy book that he shouldn't kill or even think of killing. Hmm, what if the devil was playing with him right now, making him think he was in heaven and then Bam! Surprise motherfucker, you're in hell!.

"Do not liken me to Lucifer dear son." The supreme being said in a somewhat annoyed but amused tone.

"I am really in heaven.. why? why I'm I here?" Michaelis said slowly as he began to remember his parents and sister who were brutally killed by the machines and demons.

"I have summoned you here because I have a task for you." The supreme being spoke gently.

"A task!?" Michaelis raised his head in shock.

"A thousand years has been allocated to Lucifer to try Man and sway their belief to his side. Lucifer will rule the world for a thousand years and after a thousand years, his reign will be no more, and Michael with his armies will annihilate Lucifer and his followers, then those who still of good virtue shall ascend into Heaven."

Michaelis was dumbfounded. Of course he had read about this part in the holy book, it was termed the holy war of 'Armageddon', who knew it would occur in his lifetime? Gosh! He witnessed the holy war between Heaven and Hell.

"What task I'm I to fulfil?" Michaelis asked.

"The Angels can not operate freely on Earth as Lucifer is ready for such move. Although I already have four Angels on Earth assisting Man, but they are being suppressed by Lucifer and his demons. I wish to send you back to Earth as my emissary."

"Emissary?" Michaelis was shocked.

"You will be my emissary of death. Eliminate as many demons and their acolytes as you can. Humans, Machines, Demons, as long as they are full of impurity, you are to eliminate them."

"Almighty Creator. It is not that I doubt your words nor do I want to let go of this opportunity to be of service to you. But I am just one man, if even Angels can not fight against these demons, what then can I do?" Michaelis asked with worry.

"You my dear son, will bear the powers of Azrael; the Angel of Death. Demons have no power over death. You will be 'Michaelis, the Angel of Death'. Your task is simple "Eliminate the demons, destroy the machines, and kill the human acolytes who are full of impurity". You will be my hand of Death, and you will come for all who are impure. Do you accept."

"I accept this Divine Assignment my Holy Father." Michaelis got down on one knee and bowed. Just then a bright light shone around him.. everything else blanked out.
