Last Night Good Night

UPDATE: You can find Chapter 15 under this post.

Now, some of you have probably wondered if the song is real or not. And it is real. Sung by Hatsune Miku: Last Night Good Night. It doesn't have all the instruments, Alex is just on his violin...and Lucy should be able to hit those high notes...

That's the video. I'll put the MP3 download if any of you want it as soon as I find it. Thank you and continue reading! I love all my fans! Tell everyone about my story.

Chapter 15 ~ Jennifer

I woke up feeling lightheaded. If felt like my insides were tied up. Everything was fuzzy. I blinked and everything came into focus. I realized there was a wet rag on my head. My shirt was bloody and Alex was healing one of the cuts on my chest. I winced as the magic surged into my body. Starla was back, conversing with Lucy.

"Starla-" I said as I winced. Starla looked over.

"She's conscious again," Starla said with a sigh of relief.

"Jen, don't talk. Alex said not to. We cleaned up your cuts. We're in the forest now where the dark angel was camping out. You passed out. Starla went to freaked out and almost twisted Alex's head," Lucy said.

"But-" I croaked.

"Shut up Jen. When you move around, the bleeding starts again. Wait, until the magic settles," Alex muttered as he sent more energy coursing through my body. I winced, but I felt the flesh begin to close up. I sighed.

"Hey, Nightwalker,"Alex said. Starla winced.

"What baka?" she growled. This isn't a good time to piss her off, Alex.

"Why did you leave us? Four is better than three! We could have gotten the job done quicker and escaped, keeping Lucy safe!" Alex said. Lucy rubbed her forehead, the place where Alex said she was whacked in the head.

"Three? Lucy shouldn't have been fighting," Starla said.

"They're butts got whipped and I had to get in there. I couldn't help it," Lucy said, "I can't see my friends in danger."

Starla burst out laughing, "So lame!" I was ready to punch her in the face. I let Alex do the work. Starla squinted her eyes.

"I was half-tired from carrying Lucy. I couldn't have fought as well as I could," Alex argued.

"My situation was way more important than yours!" Starla said back.

"Hmm?" I asked. This I wanted to hear. So Starla explained everything that happened in the story.

"Thank God no one was here..." I sighed. The others nodded in agreement.

"Jen..." Lucy asked gently. She leaned over and brushed the hair off my face.

"Lucy, all we care about is your safety," I said. She looked up.

"What?" she said dazed.

"That's our job," Starla said, "We're like tools to help you. We have no meaning in life, but to protect the one."

"That means you have no life then!" Lucy said. We stopped and stared.

"Lucy forget it. I'll give you some wings so you can fly home. You need to be safe and away. It's dangerous here," I said.

"No!" Alex said.

"It's not my life force idiot. I still have some power inside me. I don't go down so easily," I smiled. Starla looked pained and looked away.

"Lux Angelus alis cresce Luceat viam in lucem!" I chanted as I blacked out. One thought came into my mind.

Let Lucy be safe...



Author's Note: I am SO sorry for the late update. The EOC's and Final Exam's were all these two weeks and I'm terribly sorry for late updates. I'll be up to date at the end of this week!

Chapter 14 ~ Starla

I felt bad leaving them, but there was some familiar smell from the forest and I had to check it out. I raced inside the forest and listened. I heard a crackling sound. I raced over there.

Remember? Enhanced hearing and smell? I smelled one aura that came only comes from a dark angel. I had to question him or her about what was going on. It might have something to do with the attack. As I raced through the forest the scent became stronger. A branch scraped my shoulder, but I kept on going.

And there she was. It seemed she was an escapee from heaven. Prisoner 0231 or Danielle Echizen.

Danielle is a dark angel, a dangerous one while at it. She's able to control the force of gravity. In the prisoner cells in Heaven, the officials strip all your magic away from the prisoner and they become a helpless thing. Her powers should be gone.

The campfire. She must be trying to renew her powers through the ritual called "Deflection". You have to chant something and your powers are renewed and stuff. The chant is so complicated, but she said it and a gray aura surrounded her. It smelled like death.

No chance getting your powers back with me around.

I tackled her and ruined the ritual. I stamped out the campfire and the gray aura from Danielle disappeared.

"Nightwalker!" she growled. Makes sense. I was the one who captured her.

"You want me to break out Eros?" I demanded. She kicked me in the shin. I hissed and began the transformation. My hair turned to white. My eyes turned purple and I grew fangs. I had a deep scarlet cape with black armor on. I held a spear in my hand. This blonde had an alter ego that can scare the wits out of the worst of the dark angels.

"You will die, Echizen. No more pity, bitch," I growled. I burst into blue flames. Danielle's face was full of fear as I crept up to her.

My alter ego: Eros the Demon. Nightwalker makes a sensible nickname, although I'm going to kill the bastard who made it up.

I rushed at Danielle who ran in return. I chased after her until I became invisible and ran ahead. When she came close, I grabbed her by the neck and became visible.

"Nice try," I hissed. My hair flailed wildly without the wind.

"You bastard..." Danielle said.

"What was that dark angel doing here? And the phantom dog?" I growled.

"I...won't tell...you...anything!" she gasped. I kicked her in the shin as my eyes turned red.

"TELL!!!" I screamed. I kicked her in all the places I could think of kicking until she began to choke up blood. I grabbed her by the neck again and my talons sank in her neck, deeper.

"Alright! They're here for the child of misfortune. Master Igneel commanded us," she rasped as she became limp. I dropped the corpse on the forest floor. It wasn't the kicking that killed her, but the talons in her neck. The blood poured out like hell.

I tossed the flower from my hair into her body. Then, I became normal again. I took a stick and lit in on fire. I tossed it on Danielle. Her body burst into flames.

"Rest in peace," I whispered in her ear. I trudged back to the others.

Funny how I didn't feel anything.

Chapter 13 ~ Lucy

Angel blood? How does he...

The guard grabbed me by the neck.

"Where are the angels?" he growled. The dog growled too.

"Never telling you! You'll never know!" I choked out. He tightened his grip. I clenched my teeth and shut my eyes. Then, he loosened his grip and then let go. I gasped for breath. Then, I saw vines wrapping around his hands and legs. Starla and Alex punched the guard in the face at the same time. Then, the stomach.

Then we made a run for it.

"Those vines aren't going to hold for long," Jen muttered.

"Who is that?" I asked.

"Dark Angel. Vive versa of guardian angels. Fluffy is a phantom dog. It's like he's...a more advanced form of Cerberus with one head," Jen explained.

"I'll grab your wings and pluck all your feathers off!" the guard said. He broke from his vines and raced after us.

"Come on. Time to fly," Alex said. He carried me bridal style and lifted me up.

"Ugh, Lucy. How much do you weigh?" Alex groaned. I slapped him in the face.

"Let's get going," Starla said. We took off. The dark angel and Fluffy flew up too. I saw that his wings were a dark color. Sort of purple-black.

Then I realized I was in the air.

Now it would have been fun. If you took out the part of the dark angel, phantom dog, and Alex complaining about my weight.

"Lucy, you need to try some diet skills. Eat lettuce and-" Alex said as I slapped him again.

"It's not her weight, dweeb. It's her bones. They're not hollow like ours," Starla muttered.

"I-I can't go any farther. Lucy's weighing me down and it hurts like hell," Alex said. I punched him in the face playfully.

"Fine, lets land and fight," Starla said. Alex put me down in a nearby bush.

"You guys fight him. I need to deal with something. Lucy, stay there," Starla said. I agreed, but I really wanted to help.

Alex gave the guy another punch in the face and summoned his new Tonfa Blasters. He shot and the whole place blew up. Alex smiled and them frowned. The guard was still at us.

"Oh, damn! They're scuffed up! I need to get this fixed," Alex said.

"Pretty impressive. You have a Tonfa. But, I have a Tonfa Weapon Shield. Hah! Now come here you puny things!" the guard said.

Jen chanted a spell that made him burst into flames. He jumped into the nearest pond. Jen cursed as he arose from the pond. Then, she summoned roots to tie around his ankles. She was pooped out by then.

The dark angel sent Fluffy flying at her. Fluffy grew bigger into the size of Alex, which is about five foot eight. He scratched on her chest and she screamed in pain. As Alex ran to help Jen, the dark angel became invisible and punched him in the stomach. He let out a cry in pain.

Damn it!

That's when I stormed in. I gave the guy a roundhouse kick and then a jab at the neck. Then, I used my pocketknife (which I always carry around) and stabbed him in the chest. He screamed and fell to the ground. I stomped on his face and took out the knife. He screamed again. He turned pale. I stuck out my tongue as he faded away.

Now to Fluffy. Jen, who was thankfully still alive, summoned lightning and zapped the phantom dog to nothing. Alex and I helped Jen into the water and washed her cuts.

"Such a fail, Alex. The mortal had to save the celestial," I taunted.

"Shut up or I'll shoot you with a Tonfa Blaster," Alex said. We fell on the water, not caring if some man eating creature was lurking around underneath.

Chapter 12 ~ Alex

I woke up the next day, tired from last night. The fish was yummy and Lucy snuck us some apple juice boxes from downstairs. The smoked salmon was great. Everyone was still sleeping. I stretched and did a quick flight to exercise my wings.

"Hey!" someone said. I turned around. Lucy.

"Oh, good morning, Lucy," I said.

"What do you want to do today?" she asked.

"I don't know. I was planning to practice my violin in the woods," I said.

"You play violin?!" she yelled. I shrugged. Then, I flew up to her and landed on the balcony. I summoned my violin and tuned it.

"Can you play a song?" she asked. I blinked but settled my bow on the A string and played. Her eyes sparkled.

"I know this song! Can I sing it?" she asked. I nodded and started again.

I looked at her in surprise.


"You really do know all the lyrics," I whispered.


"And the English translation. It's such a sad song...your profile/dreaming peacefully/without i even realize
/these tears falls on my cheek/i’m trying to hide/the heartbeats of my sorrow/Last night,Good night/Last night,Good night/this night, i hold your hand tight/ and fall asleep/‘good night’/i think it would be wonderful/if i can spend another morning with you/even if that’s only a mere hope/miracle that i only imagine/when i can’t confess anything/i can’t say ‘good bye’, too/Last night,Good night/Last night,Good night/even if this voice fades/this melody shall not fades/Last night,Good night/Last night,Good night /and when i think that the end/will come someday/in this night sky i pray/for that smile to remain forever/‘good night’,"she sighed, "It reminds me of me." We sat there and watched the sun rise.

"I gotta go and eat breakfast," she said as she rushed out the door. She's like me. A Japanese.


"Morning, baka," Starla said.


"Do NOT start the day of wrong," Jen growled.


"I'm hungry," Starla said.


"We have leftover fish," Jen pointed out.

Suyasuya yume wo miteru kimino yokogao...

"Might as well see Pittsburgh if you're going to stay here for a few years," Lucy said.

"That's not too far," Jen said, looking up Pittsburgh in Google Maps, "But, you can't drive."

"You always have us," I said, extending my wings. I knocked over a vase. Lucy glared at me, but softened.

"Fine. But, who's going to carry me?" Lucy asked. I looked at Jen.

"Oh, shit..." she said.

Lucy got her backpack and packed a few things.After Lucy got permission to leave the house, we flew there in a flash. We flapped down onto a tree. Lucy spit out some leaves in her mouth.

"Welcome to Pittsburgh!" she said. That's right. It smells horrible here.

"So where to?" Starla asked.

"I can show you the conservatory," Lucy offered. Jen and Starla shrugged, but I was secretly excited. When I thought "conservatory" I thought "Music? Now that's something that can be interesting." Angels always have a preference. I'm in the medical arts and music part.

Wrong. As usual.

Because all there was were freaking flowers. But, hey, they got rid of the smell.

"Thought we might have a little picnic here," Lucy said. She pulled out four sandwiches.

Today, God is not in my favor. I mean, sandwiches are yummy, but they just had to be roast beef.

"Roast beef?" I retorted.

"Yeah, so?" Lucy said, "Oh, wait. Let me guess. You hate roast beef and you possible want to hang it like you did with Pikachu."

"That's stupid. Who hangs a sandwich?" I said. Starla and Lucy raised an eyebrow.

"Okay, maybe I do want to hang it-" I started.

"Good thing I brought those apples you picked. Along with spare salmon. Now you can eat an apple salmon shish-ka-bob. Happy?" Lucy said. I grabbed the shish-ka-bob and bit into the smoked salmon. Jen really is a good cook.


"Starla, what the hell are you doing?" Jen asked.


"Picking flowers. For my part of the roof," Starla replied innocently. She picked a light blue one and put it  in her hair. At that time, one guard came by.


"Quick! Turn invisible!" Lucy hissed. We did.


The guard walked by us. He was walking a dig. This dog had pure red eyes and sharp teeth. It's coat was so black it looked blue and its sharp claws dug onto the paved concrete.


Its mane was Fluffy. It sniffed at invisible Jen, who bit her lip.


"Alright, miss?" the guard asked.


"Oh, yes. Just having a picnic," she replied.


"Four sandwiches?" he asked.


"My friends are up ahead looking at the flowers," Lucy replied nervously. He waved goodbye and Lucy saluted him in return. Fluffy barked though. He didn't move, but bit at Starla's finger. Soon, there was supposedly blood coming out of nowhere. Starla winced.


The guard sniffed. Fuck.


"Angel blood..." he muttered. Lucy whimpered and I cursed silently in my head.


As I said before, fuck.

Chapter 11 ~ Jennifer

I put my books in the corner and summoned our packsacks. I tossed Alex his and Starla hers. Then, I looked inside. My panda pillow pet, blankets, my laptop, extra clothes, spell books, and a communication system to the angels. I put my blankets and pillows down and my books in the corner. I looked at the first one. Matched by Allie Condie. I curled up on my pillow and started to read.

I looked up from my book and saw Starla flopping around in her bunny slippers. Alex was cleaning his new Tonfa Blasters. I smiled. At least they weren't fighting. Finally some peace and quiet.

"Shit-what did you do to Pikachu Alex!?" she yelled.

"Isn't it obvious? I hung him," he said.

"But-but," Lucy stuttered.

"It's mine, right? I put it in good use," Alex replied.

"Lucy!" I said. I couldn't bear the fighting.

"What?" she said. A sudden question popped in my head.

"How come you can see us? We did the invisible spell correctly, right?" I asked.

"That is a good question, now that you think about it. You can see us and hear us and feel us. Usually you can't and we'd have to turn visible," Starla pondered.

"Let's test that theory. How many fingers am I holding up?" Alex said. He held up all his fingers.

"Uh...five," Lucy said.

"No! The thumb isn't a finger. So its four," Alex said, "God, I thought everyone knew that." Lucy sighed.

"You can see us Lucy," Jen said.

"There aren't any glitches in the spell. I checked our spell log," Starla said, flipping through the log book, "Oh, I remember this spell. The one where Alex-"

"No! Don't say that out loud!" he begged.

"Why? No one can hear us," Starla said, smirking.

"Lucy can hear us!" Alex said.

As Starla and Alex bickered, I whispered, "Starla cast a spell on Alex where she set his head on fire and he didn't realize it. Half his hair was burned to a crisp by the time he realized it. It was on video. I can give you the tape..." Lucy giggled.

"Alex! Why don't you...go get us some dinner? Maybe some fish?" I asked.

"Sure. Lucy can I borrow 50 bucks?" Alex asked.

"You don't need fifty dollars to buy fish!" Lucy said.

"I know that. I just want to go buy a Ripstik, you know that cross between a snowboard and skateboard," Alex said.

"Take the ten dollars," Lucy said as she took some out from her pocket. Alex soared off.

"Don't fly, you idiot! Someone can see you!" I said. Starla sighed.

"Angels, huh? I wonder what the world really is..." Lucy said.

"The world really is? There's us the light angels," I said.

"Then there are the dark angels. The alter ego of us," Starla said.

"Then there are the pegasus, dragons, fairies," I said.

"Plus the werewolves, vampires, and dark fairies," Starla added.

"How big is the world?" Lucy asked.

"No one knows, but I can tell you, its beautiful..." Starla sighed. I smiled. Soon the angel communicator vibrated. I rushed over and listened to it.

"Jennifer Gomez. Headmaster awaits to speak with you," the messenger said.

In the back I heard Headmaster's voice.

"HELLO? JEN? CAN YOU HEAR ME?" Headmaster yelled. I kept the earpiece away from me.

"You don't have to yell, sir," I said. Headmaster calmed down.

"Oh, I just want to check on you three. Have you met up with Luigi?" he asked. I sighed.

"It's Lucy, sir. And yes, we have," I responded. The Headmaster was cut off.

"I'm sorry, but Headmaster is having some trouble breathing. We will get to you as soon as possible. Thank you," the messenger said. I clicked the off button. Another health problem, but he can't die. He's immortal...right?

Chapter 10 ~ Starla

Oh, good. Lucy's finally warming up to us.

We decided to rest for the day. I mean, that was a long trip from 5 AM to 7 AM and we're tired. You know, who else wouldn't feel tired. We summoned our packing bags and lay out our blankets in different places. I was under the bed. Jen was on the bottom of the balcony, invisible. Alex was on the beanbags Lucy had. We pretty much slept all day until night time. I woke up and saw Lucy on the balcony. I got up

"You can't stay like this forever you know," I said. She gasped and turned around.

"Oh, Starla," she replied.

"Who did you expect? Jen? Baka*?" I said.

"No one in particular. It's new," she sighed. She looked up at the moon.

"What's so special about the moon?" I asked.

"Nothing in particular. It just reminds me that I'll never be as pure as it is," she said. I felt something wet hit my head. And it wasn't drool.

"Rain," Lucy said she rushed in and grabbed her umbrella to keep Jen dry. Then, we walked inside together.

"Happens as usual. Perfect timing," she said. I looked at her confused.

"You don't know, don't you. I'm a cursed child. I don't know why, but bad luck follows me everywhere. I'm worried, Starla. Everyone hates me because of it. If I'm playing basketball with people, the ball will inflate for no good reason," she said.

"Maybe a hole was created," I said.

"In the talent show, a light breaks every time I'm in the show," she said.

"Technical difficulties," I replied.

"Raining 7/10 of the time I'm outside?" she said.

"Maybe the rain god hates you?" I said uncertainly.

"Starla, stop it. I've already given up. No matter what I do, bad luck is there behind my shoulder," she sighed.

"Don't give up! At least the bad luck hasn't killed you or anyone!" I said cheerfully, "Say 'fuck' to the bad luck. Don't worry! It's okay!" She smiled weakly and went to bed.

~

"Okay, here, lets make a diagram," I said. I grabbed a piece of paper from her room and a pencil.

"What? No fair!" Alex said.

"You fit! Just barely though," I pointed out.

"I'm going to rip your head off Nightwalker!" he roared.

"Bring it!" I challenged.

"No!" Jen said as he punched him in the face. Alex rubbed his cheek and summoned his knives. He didn't throw them though.

"Now, let's try it my way," Alex said. I waited to see his stupid drawing.

"Come here, baka. So, I can rip your legs off!!" I screamed in fury.

"As if!" Alex roared.

"Shut the fuck up!" Lucy yelled. We stared at her. Jen flew down and explained the problem.

"You all are idiots. Think about it. Make it 'equal'. Is that word even in your vocabulary?" she yelled. She grabbed a piece of paper and scribbled on it.

"Try this!" she said and then come down here when you're ready.

"So, shut up. Let's go," Jen said. We walked into Lucy's room.

"I got stuff for you guys! Starla, you get thee bunny slip-" Lucy said as I grabbed them from her hand.

"BUNNIES!!! OMG! I LOVE THEM!!!" I yelled, "I'll name them Fluffy and Fluffy 2."

"Please forgive her. She loves bunnies to the extent her girly side comes in," Alex muttered.

"Jen, I got you some books. You seem to be a bookworm..." Lucy said. She grabbed the stack of books.

"I'll take these two," Jen said as she grabbed the two books from the stack, "These are the only ones I haven't read. Have you read the 39 Clues series? It's really good. So, anyways, thank you." Lucy blink, but put the remaining books on her bed. I focused my attention on Alex, the last one.

"Alex, you have a stuffed Pikachu," Lucy said.

"Pikachu? Where the hell did you get the damn thing?" he asked, "And why a Pikachu?"

"God! I'm not a boy! I don't know what you like either and I doubt you know what I like. So shut up and take the Pikachu," Lucy growled. Her glare was piercing. Alex glared back, but he took the Pikachu by the head.

"Pika Pika!" it went.

"Fuck you, Pikachu," he muttered so quietly Lucy couldn't hear. Jen tried to keep a straight face. We went up on the roof and did a few enchantments. You know, invisibility, sound dome, and force field. The usual.

"Wait, I need to do something," Alex said. He grabbed the Pikachu by the head (Pika Pi!) and flew to the nearest tree. He summoned some top and tied a loop over Pikachu's head. He tied it around the tree. We watched as Alex hung the Pikachu. Emphasis on hang.

"Okay, I'm ready," he said.

Chapter 9 ~ Lucy

My head was spinning by the time those three left.

What has happened today:

1)Three strangers claim to be my guardian angels.
2) I decided they could stay instead of giving them out (again, what was I thinking?)
3) That Alex boy kissed me (I still don't believe his claim of CPR).

Maybe breakfast will help me not go crazy. I walked down the stars a little light-headed.

"Hi, Mom. What's for breakfast?" I asked.

"Something special! Angel pancakes! I know you love them!" she said gleefully. Angel...

"Um...I'm not very hungry," I said. I raced up the stairs, ran inside my room, and slammed the door. My God.

Damn.

I flopped on my bed and sighed. My whole life has changed in thirty minutes. And I don't know what to do.

Just then, Alex, Starla, and Jen appeared. Fuck. They were all wet. They walked inside not caring they were soaking wet.

"YOU'RE DRIPPING WET!!" I yelled.

"Hi! Want some apples?" Jen asked, "You were right, Alex, these are delicious..."

"Why are you wet?!" I said, a bit more calmly.

"Long story including Alex killing a bunny, a fat cop chasing us and almost crashing into a fountain," Starla said. I gaped.

"Just dry up!" I said. I looked over to Jen and Alex. Jen was on fire.

"Jen!" I yelled. How? What the fuck happened?

"Oh, yes, you don't know. I'm an elemental angel. Expert on the elements. Such as fire," she explained.

"And being a dryer on the go," Alex pointed.

"What happened?" I asked. Suddenly, the TV in my room changed to Good Morning America. Jen pointed. Did she do that?

"In Meadowcraft Park, the FBI is still investigating the mystery of the broken fountain. Two police officers were seen next to a broken fountain, dripping wet. They seem to have amnesia of the incident that happened. Investigators have asked bystanders but it seems that they have no memory of what happened in the past hour. A broken cart was seen next to the fountain in Pittsburgh. Investigators are thinking about supernatural creatures in the area, so please beware of you see anything unnatural. Stanley, back to you," the reporter said. The TV shut off.

"Jen..." I said.

"That was me," she admitted, "I have the powers of the elements, remember? Lightning or electricity is one."

"What...?" I said. My head was spinning.

"Try an apple. You seem stressed," Alex offered. I through the apple at my bathroom door. Apple juice spurted out.

"You crashed into a fountain!" I yelled in disbelief.

"We didn't crash into it. The cops did," Starla said.

"What?" I screamed.

"Just try an apple," Alex said.

"I don't want one!" I yelled over the rumbling of my stomach, "And after smashing into a fountain and hijacking a fucking golf cart, all you care about are apples?!" My mouth hung open. No, seriously, I couldn't close my mouth.

"Say 'aah'," Starla said as she tossed and apple slice in my mouth. My mouth could move again. I chewed. I swallowed and my eyes sparkled.

"They're delicious," I squealed.

"And she's over it now," Alex said. Jen giggled.

"I can hear you, you know," I muttered.

"We had some roasted rabbit too. Jen's a good cook," Starla said. Jen looked away. I bit into another apple.

"Hey," I asked.

"Hmm?" Alex responded.

"Next time you go stealing for apples, killing bunnies, and crashing into a fountain, take me with you," I said as I smiled. They smiled back.

"Gladly," Starla said.

Chapter 8 ~ Alex

I would have teased Starla and Jen about Mr. Bunny's death, but the guards were after us and I couldn't afford to lose my energy.

I wish we could use our wings. We travel much faster faster with them on. No one can travel 200 mph on foot. It would be helpful, but humans are here. No use risking our secrets. Unlike OneRepublic.

I was ahead in the Cops v.s. Angels game and Starla and Jen were right on my tail. The guards took our guns and got ready to fire. One gun was aiming at Starla. Normally, I would have let him fire without warning, but, even though I hate to admit, she's one of my best friends.

"Starla! Duck!" I yelled. The bullet whizzed over her head and into a tree. People from the park screamed and ran around like idiots.

Welcome to our world.

I jumped over a park bench with the girls behind me. The buff guard climbed over it and shot. The fat one almost tripped over it. The shot at the same time. It didn't hit us, thankfully. We ran down the path and saw an old man in his golf cart. I pushed him off and waved sorry. Starla and Jen scrambled on. I hit the gas and the gold cart ran.

The cops didn't give up. They found a motorcycle and slid on (well, Fatty sort of hung over the edge). Then they whirred toward us.

Oh, shit. Motorcycles are faster than golf carts.

"Go faster, idiot!" Starla yelled.

"This is as fast as it can go!" I yelled back.

"Jen, try to jumpstart the engine!" Starla yelled. Jen searched until she found the engine. Jen's power: elemental magic. So that's water, fire, air, earth, lightning, and metal. The rest are unknown. Elemental magic has unknown powers even the Light Council doesn't know about. Anyway, she summoned the lightning power slightly and touched the wires. They sparked wildly and the cart lurched forward. The speedometer cracked. Yes! The motorcycle was speeding up though. I looked at Starla who was grinning at Jen and then slightly smiling at me. That's new. Then, her eyes were filled with terror.

"ALEX! The fountain!!!" she screamed. I looked back on the road and saw we were barreling straight into a fountain. Bystanders shrieked and headed for cover. I turned sharply to the right and safely avoiding the fountain, pulling up a few bricks on the path. I heard Jen sigh in relief.

The cops had a different story. They rammed straight into the fountain. The bystanders screamed even louder and ran away. Water spurted everywhere along with chances of cement and limestone. We pushed the cart to the side and watched the whole array. When everyone left, we checked on the cops.

"Knocked out. Starla and Jen, you probably will need to wipe out the memory of everyone in the park in the past hour," I said.

"Everyone?! That's more than 300!" Jen shrieked.

"It's for the safety of angels!" Starla said. Jen and I looked at her in surprise. She glared back at us.

"Well, duh! If angels like us come into "America's Breaking News", we're dead! I can't believe I'm saying this...but, Alex is right. I'll help you, even though its not my specialty," Starla blurted out. I couldn't believe it. Usually, Starla would say the opposite of what it is.

"Well?!" she thundered. She pulled Jen next to her and she yelped in surprise. Soon, a white aura surrounded them. Memory Wipe. I decided to help. Soon, everything that everyone had was in my head. Pushing the old man off the cart. Bullets whizzing above Starla's head. Almost crashing into the fountain. My head throbbed and I could tell the girls' did too. It's painful absorbing the memories of others. I saw other memories too. A man jogging. Some old lady feeding the birds. And a...woman taking a bath... I think I might have turned red.

I panted, "Done." Jen and Starla were on the verge to collapse. All in a morning's job.

"Get ready to see this news report on "Good Morning America"," Jen smirked. Then, we took off in silence.

Affiliation: Mt. Lebanon High School
Notes: Lucy seems to be a small character at the moment. Right now, I'm focusing on Alex, Jen, and Starla. Funny how I thought of her name. My brother was asking how to spell "lucky" and I spelled it. I looked at it and he forgot the "k" and it spelled "lucy" instead. I blinked but told him to add the end. So, I decided to write and stuff and Lucy was the name. Lucy. Lucy Cross!

Name: Starla el Bridget
Age (Human): 14
Birthdate (Human): 12/11/98
Skill: It's a surprise!
Hobbies: Cussing
Likes: Bunnies, Ice Cream
Dislikes: Alex Hagane, Dark Angels
Affiliation: Light Angels, Team Lucy
Notes: Starla seems to be this though badass character, but she's really nice inside. She's a blondie, but on't call her that. She hates being called that. It's about impossible to tell what an angel's real age and birthdate so I'm going to stick with the human years. Her love of bunnies comes from her past. It was her only friend for a VERY long time. Mostly because she pretty much cussed everyone out in the class.

Name: Alex Hagane
Age (Human): 14
Birthdate (Human): 9/22/98
Skill: It's a surprise!
Hobbies: Listening to Music
Likes: Bazookas, Spears
Dislikes: Starla el Bridget, Books
Affiliation: Light Angels, Team Lucy
Notes: Alex is that cool guy with the blonde hair. He's very sarcastic and usually acts before he thinks. He has ADHD. Alex got his iPod when he was two and played the violin when he was three. He's been playing every since. His favorite artists are OneRepublic, Train, Usher, and Pitbull. He hates Justin Bieber (a good thing). His love of bazookas started when he was looking up pictures of weapons.

Name: Jennifer Gomez (call her Jen!)
Age (Human): 14
Birthdate (Human): 2/12/98
Skill: It's a surprise!
Hobbies: Reading
Likes: Books
Dislikes: Drunk People

Notes: Jen is the bookworm, but she can get really angry at some times. She's really fucked off by Alex's and Starla's fighting. She always curls up with a book and when she sees a book she hasn't read, she'll read it, even right in a battle. Jen isn't weak at all, for all you people who think. Jen's working on a novel on her own right now. She's a more likable character and easier to get along with.

Name: Arianna Arcenas (me!)
Age: Not Telling
Birthday: 5/27
Skill: Writing and Drawing and Music and Cooking...

Notes: ME!!!!! I'm not a character, but here's some of my stuff. I don't want to give any personal information right now. ME!!!!!

Chapter 7 ~ Jennifer

Starla and Alex rubbed their ears after I dragged them up the roof. Who knew carrying two angels could be heavy?

"Anything you have to say for yourselves?" I growled.

"I'm hungry..." Alex whined.

"Well, too bad, we have no food, idiot. Now SHUT UP!" Starla yelled.

"Be quiet!" I hissed. Starla glared at me, but I didn't back down. Starla could never hurt me. I pushed her away.

"Alex, we have no money," I pointed.

"Then, why don't we just go to a park? I saw some apple trees in there and apples are yummy. Plus, they're healthy. We can pick a few," Alex said.

"No way. I am not scavenging for food like a filthy beggar," Starla retorted.

"Suit yourself. C'mon, Jen, lets get going," Alex said. I looked back at Starla, but followed Alex. I was hungry anyway. Starla looked pained.

"Hey! Wait up!" she yelled as she flew next to us.

~

"Let's land in that abandoned alley over there," I said. We did a smooth landing and folded in our wings. Then, we walked out. Everyone's eyes were on us. I wonder if it was because we just came out from an alley or there are rats in our hair.

We made it to the park feeling fresh. Starla didn't seem that impressed and Alex was focusing on his breakfast. I saw the beautiful meadow's lush green grass and the trees many colors of red, orange, and brown.

"It's beautiful..." I gushed.

"And I'm hungry. Let's hurry," Alex said. We walked off the path and wandered around until Starla's nose hit the scent of apples. Yes, Starla has enhanced eyesight and hearing. Great parts to a warrior.

"Oh, look guys! A rabbit!" Starla said. Oh, shit. Her weaknesses. Bunnies. Ice cream. And possibly her breasts.

"Great! We can eat it," Alex said. Starla and I were ready to slap him.

"Are you that cold hearted, you bastard!?" Starla yelled. Alex just went on picking apples.

"Jen, go kill it," Alex said. Me?

"NO! We will keep him and call him Mr. Bunny," Starla said. The rabbit looked terrified. Maybe it could understand human language.

"Jen, do it now!" Alex said. Starla looked at Alex. She was shaking in anger. I could feel the presence of Eros raising from her body. She couldn't move, though. Not with the rabbit in her hands. Alex looked at her and grabbed a sharpened rock. The bunny was absolutely paralyzed in fear.

"I won't kill it. I promise," Alex said. His looks were sincere. Starla stopped, but dropped the rabbit. The bunny was passed out from fear. Alex stroked the rabbit and then shoved it on his neck. Starla was trembling and crying silently.

"Now, help me with the fire, Jen. Starla go find some blueberries. Steal some from Farmer's Market or something," Alex said.

"How could you!" I yelled.

"My stomach is making the runblies," Alex said.

"Alex!" I yelled.

"Only rabbits could satisfy it," Alex said.

"Um...looks that we won't be getting those blueberries soon. Alex, pack the apples and the bunny," Starla growled.

"Why-oh, fuck," Alex said.

"Hey, you three! You're under arrest for breaking into private property!" a gruff man in a uniform said. A fat cop was behind him.

That's when we took off.

Chapter 6 ~ Starla

"So, can you guys please leave?" Lucy asked.

"We can't leave, Lucy," I said, "Wait, we can't leave, right Jen?"

"Section 3, Rule 42: Once he or she has approval of Headmaster and has reached his or her subject, they are to stay with him or her until age 22," Jen read from her pocket guide.

"We can't leave. Not until you're 22," Alex said.

"Wait, why are you guys even here? Are you shitty kidnappers?" Lucy retorted.

"No, and don't call us that, because we're your guardian angels," Jen said.

"You wished for something on your birth time, right? So now we're here because we're supposed to help you until age 22, the ending point of childhood," I explained.

"You're with me for that long? 8 years? I'm only 14!" she yelled.

"So, good luck trying to get rid of us," Alex sighed.

"I can't believe this! I have to tell-" Lucy started.

"NO! You can't tell anyone about us!" I yelled. Don't ask why, don't ask why, don't ask why, don't-

"Why?" Lucy asked. Fuck you.

"Because we disappear from existence," Jen said.

"So...?"

"We won't be able to help you?" I tried.

"And...?"

"You'll live a horrible life and your future will have darkness, lies, and a painful death. Along with your parents betrayal for money reasons, bad luck continuing, and...you'll be an international kidnapper. So, you're gonna tell or not?" Alex said. Lucy cracked.

"Fine. You can stay, but not in my room. If I have to wake up next to you three idiots every day, I'll freak," Lucy said.

"No problem, we'll just stay on the roof," I said.

"How are you going to get up there? And someone could see or hear you three!" Lucy said.

"Heh, heh. You'd think we'd come to Venus-" Jen said.

"Um...this is Earth," Lucy said. Alex smirked.

"-come to Earth unprepared? We're not just flying creatures, but each have magical abilities in order to fight for our lives. Such as soundproof areas and invisibility techniques and other stuff," Jen corrected and finished.

"What about education?" Lucy asked.

"School? Pfft, we had that a few hundred years ago," I said.

"Hundred? How old are you guys?" Lucy said.

"Angel years or human years?" Alex said.

"Um..." Lucy replied.

"Let's see we're around 750 each...so that's...carry the 4...multiplied by 2 subtract 67...same age as you, 14, in human years," Alex said.

"Funny. I got 321," I said.

"Well, that proves you're stupid," Alex said.

"You're the stupid one!" I hissed.

"I think the girl who dropped out of high school is the stupid one," Alex retorted. I almost transformed into Eros to rip out his throat.

"BOTH OF YOU! SHUT UP!" Jen said, "We'll get going now." She grabbed me and Alex and pulled us by the ear onto the balcony.

Chapter 5 ~ Lucy

Waking up next to three random teenagers is not how you should start your day. I don't recommend it.

I was about to scream until the blonde girl clamped her hand over her mouth. She had this wild look in her eyes like a stray cat. Her eyes were a golden color. She made the quiet sign and grinned at me. I widened my eyes, but obeyed.

"Guys! She's not dead!" she said.

"Of course I'm not dead!" I yelled, "But you guys are trespassers! Fucked intruders! Possible kidnappers!"

"So, you're Lucy Cross, right?" the dirty-blond boy said.

"What? How do you know my name. Have you've been STALKING me?" I blurted. They raised their eyebrows.

"Um...I don't know if it would technically be called stalking," the brunette said. She stared at me with her green eyes.

"Ugh, we're getting off track. I'm Starla. The brunette's Jen. And this idiotic looking boy is Alex," the blonde girl said.

"That still doesn't explain why you're in my room," I retorted.

"Well, you see-" Alex started.

"And you!" I said, pointing at who should be Alex,"You KISSED me! Not that I'm complaining or anything-" I said.

"I told you, Nightwalker! I knew she would think that instead of CPR. This is what happens when no one listens to me!" Alex said.

"Not like you had any good ideas!" Starla said as she rushed at him. Then, the brunette intervened.

"Not again! Can you please have one peaceful day where both of you don't fight?" she begged.

"NO!!!" they both yelled.

"Hello? WHY WERE YOU PERFORMING CPR ON ME?!" I yelled. These people are really fucked up.

"Because we thought you died!" Starla hissed.

"Why were you in my room, then?" I asked. That's when I heard knocking on my door. The three nitwits bit their lips and went out on the balcony. Then, Mom opened the door.

"Mom!" I said loudly.

"Are you okay, Lucy? You were screaming," Mom said. Well, duh.

"Actually, I'm no okay. There's these three freakin' strangers-" I said. I need to watch my language.

"Strangers?" she said as she raised an eyebrow.

"Yes, strangers! Look! They went out onto...the...balcony?"I said. They were gone.

"Are you sure you're okay?" Mom asked again. I was too stunned to speak.

"I-I'm fine," I stammered. Mom smiled and left my room.I sighed. Maybe everything was fine. Maybe I'm just seeing things. Maybe...

"We're back!" the brunette (was her name Jen?) said.

"Damn..." I said.

Chapter 4 ~ Alex

I hope Lucy knew I was doing CPR that kissing her full on the lips.

"So...she wasn't dead?" I asked.

"Well, she wasn't dead before. She might have died out of fright, thanks to you," Starla said.

"Ah...no. Thanks to you. You told me to do CPR, so shut up, Nightwalker," I said.

"Why, you-" she started before Jen interfered.

"Enough with the DARN fighting!!!" she yelled. I stopped. But not because of Jen.

Knocking. "Lucy?" a woman said.

"Oh, Lord. Come on. We gotta get out of here!" Jen whispered. We scrambled onto the balcony and flew up to the roof. I poked my head out to see what happened.

"Oh, she's sleeping in today. She better not do this tomorrow," the woman said. The woman also had brown hair, but no purple streaks. She even had normal green eyes.

"Hey, why is the balcony open?" she said. She walked toward the balcony. Starla pulled my shirt collar. I bit her in response. She glared and motioned to be quiet. The woman looked out on the balcony and left. Thankfully, she didn't lock it. She left Lucy's room. Then, we silently flew down, opened the door, and peered closely at her.

Chapter 3 ~ Jennifer

"You sure this is the house?" Alex said.

"Positive. Her address is 1812 Eagle Drive, Pittsburgh, PA," I said. We flew as the sun came up and landed on a balcony near by. We folded our wings in and looked at the time. 7:30 AM. We saw the door was unlocked. We then crept inside and looked at her.

Lucy was a brunette with wavy hair. She looked like she went out in the rain or had a very early morning shower. Her nails were a startling ice blue (some type of disease?) and her lips were pale pink. She had a streak of purple in her hair and a rosy complexion.

We stared at her for a moment until Starla asked, "Is she dead?"

"Oh, my God!" I breathed, "Alex, can you look for a pulse?" I asked him because he majors in healing. Alex shook his head.

"Well, what are you waiting for, idiot? Go do CPR!" Starla said. Alex glared.

"Stop yapping, Nightwalker," he growled. Starla was ready to punch him, but I held her back. Alex gently pushed on her chest. When her eyes still didn't open, Alex started with part two.

He pinched her nose and pressed lips against hers. Starla looked away and I gaped. He real eased took another breath of air in and repeated.

Lucy's eyes opened and widened. She pushed Alex off her and was ready to scream. We looked at one another. Then, Starla clamped her hand over her mouth. Oh, crap. I bet we look like weird kidnappers. Lucy looked at us with her pale purple eyes (purple?). Then, she closed her eyes and fell back in bed.

Chapter 2 ~ Starla

"Did you hear that? Jen! I real job!" I squealed.

"I know," Jen says.

"Idiot. We still need Headmaster's approval," Alex says. I sighed.

"Fine, baka," I said. Alex glared. Headmaster. We flew to his castle.

Yes, I said "flew".

Jen (her real name is Jennifer), Alex, and I are guardian angels. Us guardians watch over the assigned person, in this case, Lucy, until she turns 22. That's when they officially become adults. We come down to Earth to help them only:

1)They wish for something.
2)Their wish must be on their birth time.
3) We get Headmaster's approval.

Headmaster is a scruffy old person, who is very kind. He's immortal, but he's one of the very few. He's like the head of the angels. Most angels aren't immortal, but can live for a long time.

"Um...Starla?" Jen said.

"Yeah?" I replied.

"You're going to hit that-"Jen starts before I hit something. Hard.

Ouch.

"-wall," she finishes.

"Thank's for the heads-up," I said. Alex smirks.

"You okay?" Jen asks. I nod. Then, we fly to the castle, breathless.

"HEADMASTER WE NEED YOUR DARN APPROVAL!!" I yell. Headmaster turned on his hearing aid. Oh, yeah, his hearing is fading away.

"Eh?" he said.

"Our assigned person, Lucy, has made her wish on her birth time and we are asking for your approval for us to go down," Jen says.

"Why, Starla, did you not say so?" he asks. We all sweatdrop*.

"So, its Luigi?" he said.

"Er...no, its Lucy. Lucy Cross?" Alex said.

"Lucy Cross. Sounds funny. Where have I heard that name before?" he mumbles. He takes the big book next to him and turns through pages until finding Lucy's name.

"Lucy Cross. Lucy...Cross. This is not good. I have to talk to the light council about this..." he mutters. The Light Council is the head of all angels. They're all immortal and the highest rank of honor in angels.

"Why?" I ask. I hate waiting and not knowing. I was ready to beat up the old geezer but the council won't like that.

Head master sighed and said, "You have our approval. Go now." We bowed and headed for Earth.

Chapter 1 ~ Lucy

Once again, I close my eyes. And right then, you appear, laughing and smiling. I, of course, run to you, but when I touch you, you disappear. Then, my eyes open.

There goes my dream. And as usual, here comes the reality check.

I get up from bed and looked at my alarm clock: 4:46 AM. I sighed. No use going back to bed again. If I fall asleep, I'll have that dream again...

I changed into jeans and a Hollister t-shirt. Then, I went on my balcony. The moon was still bright and shining. I paced around and sighed. I stared at the moon for a while. Then, I felt something wet drop on my forehead.

"God, no," I say. It was beginning to rain. I rushed back inside and changed back to my blue pajamas. What was the use of life? I feel like I'm being tortured all the time. I don't even know why my B.F.F. Krystal and my parents stick with me while I bring totally bad luck to the world.

I look back at my alarm clock. 4:58-no-4:59 AM. Maybe...

Oh, forget it. No way my luck will change if I wish for something on the time I was born. But...

"I wish for anything. Anything that can help me become who I want to be," I whisper quickly.

But, I hoped it would work. I climbed back in bed. I closed my eyes and fell asleep.

Little did I know my life would change. Forever.
