said as I rolled my eyes.
“Mom it’s not your sex life it’s the fact that I don’t really want to see it” I snapped back.
“Don’t look then”
“Enough” my father bellowed “why are you here and Luc take that grin off your face” he added.
“Sir” was Luc’s reply.
“You asked me to go and help Luc deal with a rather straightforward vamp nest” I said directing it at my mother. She nodded in agreement but remained silent. “Why?”
“I sent you to Luc to see if you could sense what he had as you have been avoiding us and it was the only way I could think of getting you here” she said giving me a hard look “did you?” she asked.
“Yes”
“What is this you speak of?” Michael asked. Sash held her hand up to stop his question.
“Do you recognise it?” she asked next.
“No, but I feel that I should” I replied.
“What about you” she addressed Luc next.
“Nothing, I know its there but Lily says
it’s not good or bad just very powerful. Which is more than I got from it” was his answer.
“Michael” my mother said now talking to our father “there is something not right with the world, I don’t know what or why. Lucas sensed it and passed on these senses to me. Lily was called back to either disprove or confirm Lucas readings”
“How long” he asked my mother through gritted teeth.
“I don’t know, I have tried to sense this thing but I am unable to, I have only sensed it through Lucas. I am worried Michael for us all but mainly I am worried for them as they am the only ones that can sense this thing.” she leaned forward and kissed him lightly “this is not a heaven and hell thing Michael, this is a family thing” she pleaded.
“I know Sash, believe me I know” he hugged her to him.
“Dad” Lucas interrupted. He turned his head away from Sash to look at us.
“What now?”
Michael closed his eyes and I could feel him open up to the world to see what he could sense. I travelled along with him and immediately felt it, but my father travelled past. I could feel Luc with me as father moved on.
I felt around its edges and gleamed no more information from it I strained my senses over stretching myself and that’s when I heard this thing whisper my name causing me to slam back into myself. I opened my eyes and was found myself on my hands and knees Lucas was knelt down beside me and my parents was looking at us.
“I felt nothing” Michael told us.
“You went passed him” I told them.
“Him?” my mother asked “you know its male then”
“It feels male” I replied unwilling to say anything else but not knowing why.
“Lucas” Michael asked.
“Nothing new” he told them.
Our fathered waved his hand and clothed himself I am going to consult with my brethren he kissed my mother and disappeared.
“I love that man” my mother growled before her attention returned to us.
“Stay together” she instructed “and we will be in touch” she manifested herself some clothes then to my surprise she came and wrapped her arms around us giving us a quick hug and in the next breath disappeared in a cloud of smoke.
“Want to bet she gone after dad to finish what they started” he laughed.
“Probably” I replied not really paying much attention.
Lucas grabbed my hand and took us back up to the factory. I looked round nothing had changed and I couldn’t feel anyone nearby.
“Clear” Luc informed me after he done his own checks I looked over at him in annoyance.
“What now, carry on as normal then?” I said to Lucas.
He unfurled his wings and I followed suit. I stretched them out and folded them back in against my back.
“Want to come back to mine” he asked.
“No I feel like kicking the shit out of someone I might look around for a bit. I’ll drop by when I’m done” I replied.
He walked over to me and dropped a kiss on my forehead “I‘ve missed you“. We walked to the door together, once outside Lucas took flight leaving me alone. I stood there not sure what I was going to do, I know we had been told to stay together but we both like and need our own space and as much as I love my brother I would end up seriously hurting him bieng in close confinement with him for to long. I felt like getting into a brawl but how tired I was I’d be the one who would end up on the end of the beating. I glanced around me taking a look at the now empty warehouse, knowing that my mother had sent me to Luc knowing that was the only reason I would willing come to them, also so I could feel this thing that they had sensed. What they didn’t know was that I had been dreaming about him for years, the presence had been in my dreams, soothed me night after night when I had done some really unpleasant things. I have known him for years yet I had felt like it was always part of my imagination and not real. Now I find that it isn’t and I felt excited and very nervous. I am of course worried but also a little excited, with that thought I exited the warehouse spread my wing and took to the skies.
The night was cool and the wind had a bite to it as I flew home. I had always enjoyed flying and built my speed up feeling the rush of air across my face and my adrenaline building as I streaked across the sky. All too soon I came to a wooded area with a clearing where a small old fashion cottage was situated. I flared my wings out and checked my flight then glided down to the ground.
My parents are centuries old and believe it or not myself and my twin brother are the only children of thier union and neither of our parents had children with any other demons or angels. Our parents or actually our mother is rich, because dad does not require physical possessions, it’s the angel thing, but mom is filthy rich and has land and property all over the world. Luc is also like our mother and has a good head for making money and over the last 150 years has made us both rich in our own right so that we don’t have to rely on mom even though we could have what we wanted no questions asked. We both liked to be as independent as possible.
I however follow our father and don’t want or require anything, as long as I have somewhere to lay my head, and a full stomach, I’m happy. I looked towards the cottage and felt my chest fill with remembered happiness. The cottage was where we all lived when we were growing up. Luc and I had a normal childhood until our powers became known and father was called back to heaven. We were only 11 years old when he left and it broke my heart.
I missed my father but Luc and Mom tried to compensate and I am grateful to them for it, but they weren’t him. I prayed for him to come home every night but he never did. Nearly 20 years passed before he returned and we both had grown into adults and I had long stopped praying for his return. He came to tell us both heaven and hell had agreed to appoint us a job and that we had no choice. Mom and Luc quickly forgave him and their relationship continued on as if nothing had changed, I never could forgive him, though and even now at times I still feel resentment towards him for leaving us, this was also why I had remained distance from them. I know my staying away caused mom and Luc pain but I was also pissed at them for forgiving him so easily.
I gave myself a shake throwing away the hurtful feelings and the sadness of losing the warm father that I remembered him to be from my childhood. I’m not saying that he doesn’t love us he does, but its cold love sometimes clinical, a love that he shows to everyone again its another angel thing but my mother being the exception to the rule. I took a deep breath and let it out slowly before I entered.
None of them use this house anymore all of them moving on except me, this is my home and always will be my home. I had folded my wings to my back and thought them away so I could enter. Our wings where huge so we had learnt to hide them by pulling them tight into our bodies and sort of dissolving them so they become invisible and don’t interact physically with our environment. Luc could probably explain it, all I know is I want them gone and with concentration they go and that is all that mattered to me.
The cottage was in darkness but I didn’t stop to turn the lights on and carried straight on to my bedroom which used to be my parents room. I lay on the bed without even bothering to take my clothes off. I lay still and called out mentally to Luc to let him know where I was, I felt his reply by a feathered kiss to my forehead, I smiled closed my eyes and drifted off to sleep.
I knew I was dreaming as I was out in the woods instead of asleep
