《Angel of Death》Chapter 11
Advertisement
(Gloom POV)
I'm pacing back and forth in the kitchen. The only room with enough space for me to be in, but I still had to push the table and chair sagains't the wall... When I heard this woman say that she was my mother, my wings went all the way out and I'm too stressed out to be able to put them back in. I try my best to keep them close to me, but they are still really big... When I hear the door open, I spin around to see a worried Pri. He looks at me and simply hugs me tight and plays in my hair. I hide my face in his neck and try to steady my breathing. I ask in a shaky voice ''Do... do you think... she... she really is my...my...mm..mother?''
''I don't know'' he says, holding me even tighter ''But she had the exact same freckles as you under her eyes.''
''I think it's time for a little conversation with my father...''
There is this saying in the Greek mythology that people used to hit the ground with their fist to catch my father's attention while shouting his name. Well this is not completly false, but if you want it to actually work, you have to be a member of the underworld... Like me''DAAAD!! WE NEED TO TALK, NOW!'' I shout while hitting the floor with my fist multiple times. Sometimes he has selective listening, so I have to knock more than only once. He appears in front of us ''What do you think of my new.... Is something wrong?''
''Yes! Some random woman went to talk to Pri saying that she was my mother!''
I can see my father deflating in front me ''Your... mother? How did she look like?''
We both turn to face Prionsa ''Huh... White hair, blue eyes, freckles under her eyes like Gloom. Pink sleeveless shirt with white pants and shoes.''
I raise an eyebrow and look at him ''That is a really detailled description...''
''Well yeah, I work in the fashion world so... I notice those kind of things.''
''What did she tell you?'' Lucifer says in a whisper.

''That she was Gloom's mother and she wanted to fix everything. And she said something about Halloween? Something that happened? I'm not sure to understand.''
I tense up at the memory of what happened on halloween... How could she possibly knows what I did!? My father looks at me dead in the eyes ''Son, what happened on Halloween?''
''Nn....nothing!''
''You had to bring me a soul on that day... his soul...''
Prionsa back up a few steps ''Mm.... my soul? Gloom, you said that I only hurt my head a bit...''
I can feel my anxiety rising in my chest. What should I do now? My father is so strict... If he learns that I saved his life... He will... he will... I look at him, tears pricking in my eyes. He stares at me and command ''Speak, son!''
''OKAY!! I saved him! I brought him back to life! He was dying and I couldn't let him die! And I noticed that I can create life! I guess I got this magic from her or something... So I brought him back to life! Happy now dad!? I'm the worst Angel of Death ever! I... I couldn't let him die!'' I try to hold my tears, but I can feel some rolling on my cheeks. My father walks closer to Pri and I pull my wings out in an attempt to protect my love from him. I don't want my father to take him away from me!
My father puts a hand on my shoulder and push me forward. I close my eyes, but instead of falling to the ground like I thought, I get engulfed in my father's arms with my head resting on his chest ''Thanks son for telling me the truth.'' Wait is he... crying? ''Gloom, I'm so sorry!'' I put my arms around his him and hug back as hard as I can and let all my sadness and bitterness toward him go. I can't even remember the last time he hugged me. I didn't know I needed it that much. After a while we break the hug and we sit on the chairs Pri offers us. He goes to take another chair for himself, but I take his arm and lead him to sit on my lap, I need to feel him as close to me as possible right now. I need to protect him. He sits on my lap and I wrap my wings around us.

''Son, I'm so sorry! All those years I told you to not forget who you are... And here I am, only focusing on one aspect of you...''
''What do you mean?''
''You are my son, an Angel of Death, but you are also your mother's son...''
''My mother?...''
''The leader of the Guardian Angels.''
Mye yes widden ''Guardian...angels?''
''Yes, all the white in your wings made me realise it. And when I first met Prionsa... I could see and feel the link connecting both of you...The link a Guardian angel and his protege have... That is why you couldn't let him die. It is your duty to protect him.''
Pr ismiles at me ''I told you you were an angel! That is why I feel so safe with you around.''
I hug him even more, and look at my father, confused ''But... If my mother is the leader of the Guardians... Why.... why did she...''
''Left us?'' I nod and he keeps going ''Even if she litterally is an angel, figurativelly, she isn't... I realised that a bit too late unfortunatly. When she saw that you had more attribute of an Angel of Death, when you were a few months old, she left you with me since she didn't want a...'' he bit his lips, not knowing how to finish his sentence. I say in a small voice ''A demon for son?''
Prionsa roll his eyes ''And now that she knows that you can be like her, she wants you back? How rude and selfish that is! But... she is stil lyour mother. And... She gave me this.'' He hands me the little piece of paper. She wrote her phone number and signed 'Beatrice' with a little heart ''Beatrice... That's her name?''
My father nods slowly ''If you want me and/or Pri to be with you when you talk to her, just tell us okay?''
He then jumps a little in surprise as his side pocket flash. He sigh,put out his pocket watch and look at it ''looks like they need me back down there... You will be fine, son?''
''I guess?''
''Call me if you need... Oh and Pri?''
''Yes?''
''If you both ever need me and Gloom can't reach me... Put those on and knock on the ground and I will hear you.'' He hands him a pair of white tuxedo gloves. Pri thanks him and my father snap himself back to the underworld.
I slowly put my head on Pri's shoulder as I feel my wings shrinking back in. Pri kiss me gently and ask ''Do you want to go to sleep? You've been in a big rollercoaster of emotions today, didn't you?'' I have to agree with him. He helps me to stand up and help me to get to the bedroom where I collapse on the bed. He takes off my shoes, pants and hoodie and tuck me in. I only have time to tell him that I love him and I fall asleep.
(Prionsa POV)
I look at Gloom sleeping peacefully and then back at his hoodie...There is two big holes where the wings teared the clothes off to spread out. I will have some patching to do... Maybe even some little trick to create so if it ever happen again, the wings won't rip his clothes again...
I give him a little kiss on his forehead and close the bedroom's door. I go back in the kitchen and put all the chairs and table back in place. There is the little piece of paper on the table... I don't like this. I feel like something bad is about to happen.
I don't think it's a good idea for Gloom to meet her mother, but at the same time... I feel like things will get worst if he doesn't...
Either way, it is his decision and not mine, I will follow and help him no matter what he wants to do.
