Chapter 9 - In which there is a strategy

"Firstly , we must send a troop of about sixty individuals led by Yanx as an element of surprise , Yanx , you are supposed to heal those injured by the dead or the demons , as in the meanwhile , a battalion led by Kafisa corners them from every angle to create something like an ambush whereas we preserve the real army led by Valentino , i shall lead a few scouts and soldiers into the other realm discreetly such that i can take on the AAA hylo_demonangel and reclaim the other realm as a land under the protection of his wiseness , " 

I led the crew of five women and one male into the bushy-dense forest , and right ahead of us was a fence , a five hundred million meter high wall that was still in construction , Peneloppe,one of the angels born of the family Akicita , then stepped forward in a brief silence , and pulled out two hammers from her back pack , she well then ordered us to brace ourselves as she spread her kiwi wings and charged at the wall with all her force and struck it with her hammer thus cracking it and there she was , Rafael , at the right hand of the demonangel .

NARRATION FROM RAFAEL'S PERSPECTIVE

I was sitted at the baobab tree , looking at the stars as the waters of the spirit realm blurred them , out of sorrow and dismay i was wishing to see her face once more , could she spot me from above amongst all the other lowly beings , could she see me - was she ? , was she able to come cross over and see me but still refuse to , i would give up my life to see her one last time , i would selfishly give up earth and all those alike ; humans , demons , angels and all the other creatures just to be with her because i don't care what happens to them if it comes to the love of my dear life , why then must she pretend to care any less or more than i , keeping a universal balance in which her and i would never be hand in hand , kissing me with her moon patched blue lips and abandonning me to go and enjoy her people there on earth . I fear to have known her a short while to fall so deeply, like i already have , in love but theirs just that feeling where one knows exactly when to let their walls fall for somebody else , that feeling of eternal torture ceasing for an end , that feeling of affirmation that appears only when one has accepted the result of meeting someone - falling in love ; i was welly assured of my place in Shiro's heart , i knew that we were meant to be one , i was well aware of all her being and i know she could feel the earthly threads that bound our palms together sever the insant i crossed that gate back into this realm , how could she let me go away that easily , i thought we were , i thought that in her eyes was the same vision as that in mine but i guess i was wrong ... 

As i was wallowing in self pity , then popped out ahand from the ground , a hand made of flesh unlike that that i was accustomed to here in hell , who could have been reborn that way with their live flesh ... it probably was someone of huge grandeur , one capable of bribing the goddess , Earth ... Huh! 

I knew those hands clearly so well , i was looking at them all day , it was Shiro forging her way from her grave , wait , was she dead ? 

From the ground she rose all covered in dirt and from her hands wilted off moon dust , she stood there with her eyes fixed to the ground and her wings covering her face out of shy bitterness , i was overwhelmed and so i jumped into her embrace , she unfolded her wings and flew into the air as the roots pulled her feet back on the ground , amidst the starlight she held my face and asked if it was ok if we share a kiss , i , looking in her clear sky-like eyes agreed and then pulled by her gravity , my head leaned forward and then we kissed , " I missed you , my queen " she said telepathicaly as we slowly were pulled down to the crusty earth . 

I pulled away from her embrace , i turned my back on her and let the gush of wind run silent , '' Why did you let me go ? '' i asked as a tear ran down my cheek , " I thought that we were close , but you have taken all this time without checking up on me ! " i added as i cried , she reached out for my hand but i pulled myself away and dried my tears off my pale face .

"There was no other way , Rafael ... " she said as she gasped falling down to the ground ,

I turned to her and asked " Then why wasn't their any other way ? "

" The humans attacked us politically and so as to resume the whole situation i am in ; i am powerless and in need to help the angels take over this realm once again but for that , i will need your help , using my celestial powers would require a huge amount of energy so like a human i'm turning away from my potential and looking unto yours , please understand that this is a matter of life or death , it's an act of war " she said as she pantered losing breath all the way .

" But all humans know that for every magick used their is a price , i can't open up the gates , i am no celeste ; I might need to pray to Adehad , he has to be worth something in the end after being the root of all this mess " i said as i knelt down to her , "I can't betray my master , he's like a father to me , the situation in which you're including me is wazy past my capacities ! " i said sorrowfully 

" Lies ! " she said then took in a big breath , " That's a lie '' she added , she was taking me for a liar ; i was bewieldered at that , does she think that i am really selfish to that point , to the point of easily betraying for my family just like that , i was shocked , i was hurt , i was beginnng to cry , i tried to ask why but all i did was wail ; why would someone i really expect to look up to me , look down on me like that , was it because of my esthetic , is it my fault , she held my hand said " Let me complete my statement before you cry , i meant to say that they are feeding you lies , the only reason their is a price to every magick is because humans able to carry it out ask celestials and other heavenly beings instead rather than using their own soul energy itself , and that is not their fault , they are doing it that way because they are ignorant of the fact that thyeir own soul capacity and inner spiritual potential is capable to do it itself " 

" And how is that even possible ? " i asked 

" Well it is due to the fact that all spirits descend directly from the genus god , that means that even though blood rules the tarots and teachings , deep down every human being is like a god , is like a celestial being , that is why celestials and souls are eternal , that is why spirits are immortal , the very reason why your soul resides in this realm and it is also the very reason why the sons of man when dead unlike other souls , can not be tempered with by the powers of their masters , i say this to you to convince you that you are unaware of your potential , you are capable of openingb those gates if you really wanted to , you are as much capable as a soul that decides to defy nature and die due to the torture inflicted to it by its master , Rafael , you are as capable as any other goddess i have ever laid my hands on you , you fell in love with a celestial and that never stopped you , not even this realm could when it came to laying your hands on my cheeks and that makes you special " she said as she laid her head on me 

" I will do , i will help you take back your realm , give me till after tomorrow's night and in earth years , that's a full moon cycle , see you the next full moon " I promised as she closed her eyes 

In a strong gush of wind , a cloud of dust and leaves formed a humanoid figure that came over to me , his eyes flamboyantly burning with bloody red , his hair wild and uncatered for , his thin and too slender body , his gaze so different from those i'm used to , he knelt down ahead of us , " I should take my sister back to the other realm , wouldn't want her dying here '' he said , " And she said that i was the family wierd one letting creatures grow on me , and here she falling in love with one of them " he said with a funny sort of smirk as he took her out my arms and in a strong breeze , they were here no more , i stood up and bran to Gostoique's chambers calling out for him and Janjare 

" Master ! master! master! ...
