!WARNING!: the following chapter contains violence
My name use to be Elizabeth Widow, a girl born in 1820, in a small town in the country. From when I was born to the age of 16, I was the most beautiful girl in the town, everyone 'loved' me, thought I was special, a gift from God himself, something no demon, devil or sin could lay hands on, but... it all changed after I got really sick. A sickness that cannot be cured, doctors tried to help, healers tried to help, but nothing worked, nothing ever worked. By my birthday, a boy I've never seen before ran into my room, telling my father another healer has come to help me, but my father had doubts. A woman walked in, she had nightshade hair, porcelain skin, glassy rosewood eyes, dressed in dark purples and pinks. She introduced herself as Lyrtse Thorn, a healer from a tribe called the RiversThorn clan, who has heard word of my sickness and has come to help, but with a small price. If I accept her treatment, I have to be touched with one sin, death. Of course my father didn't like the price, a sinless daughter is precious to a lonely father, but what choice did he have, a living daughter is better then loneliness. He agreed to the healer's terms. She asked for one person in the town who will die for my treatment, my father left and came back with a man. Lyrtse pulled out the unknown man's heart and squeezed the last pumping blood out of the organ, using the blood to draw a upside-down cross on my head and a pentagram on my left hand, chanting a hypnotizing song, a poisoning lullaby that forced me into a deep sleep. I woke up the next morning to see my father, dead asleep in a chair next to my bed, Lyrtse Thorn next to him, fully awake and pleased to see me awake too "You will no longer be sick, but you now have a death sin attached to you" I looked down at my hand to see a weird, symbolic, hypnotizing pentagram inked into my skin "When you die, you meet your new family, one you'll serve until your ready to be what my father will create you to be" Lyrtse went to walk out "T-thank you for saving my life!" I managed to say "Don't thank me, you may not be sick, but I have made everything a lot worse... I've now ruined your life" Lyrtse walked out of my room. After that, everyone eyed me where ever I walked, believing that the sin of death attached to me meant that I was now a servant to the devil himself, other's believed that my purpose of being alive was now to be sacrifice and that's what happened. They burned God's symbols and the seven deadly sins into my skin then nailed me to a cross for all to see, and after that one day of torture, they poisoned me with the deadliest flowers they could find, until I died. I was dead, not allowed to go through heaven's gates due to the symbols that marked my dead human body, I was forced into hell, Satan ripped me apart for 179 years until he was finally finished with creating a new demon. Now 1999, given to Prince Jackal Reaper, who just turned 120 years old, my name was changed as I turned into the demon everyone wanted me to be, my name is now Dark Angel...
4 Years Later...
(Angel's POV)
"Angel, wake up!" Aristomache said, walking into my room and opening the blinds, the bright fires of Hell burning my eyes "Okay! Okay! I'm up!" I groaned, sitting up on my bed... looks like I feel asleep at hell's Royal castle... again. "Your interview is today, the one about E.U-" "Shit!" I ran to my small closet and pulled out a black top and ripped jeans as Aristomache walked out of my room. I changed my clothes, put on black combat boots then put on my necklace looking at my reflection in the mirror; dark purple hair, ocean-blue eyes, pale skin, blood-red lips... so many changes of what I use to look like when I was human. I picked up my bag, black with a silver pentagram on it, throwing it onto my shoulders and running out the front door, towards the Court House.
An hour later...
"Dark Angel, you have completed all punishments that have been requested of you for the crimes you committed the last three years, and now your asking to join E.U for further schooling?" Mr Blackwood questioned, looking at the paper documents in front of him. "Yeah, mostly because Arist- Mistress Aristomache and Prince Jackal want me to attend, only if I manage to pass the exams, even though I don't want to go, the Royal family wants me to" "I see that you've finally learnt your place Dark Angel... I will let you take the entry exams, but just know the only thirty of the students taking the exams actually pass as egos into the academy" "Thank you sir". I walked out of the Court House. E.U is Ego University, angels and demons who want to be human egos and personalities have to get into the top three classes, meaning you have to be one of the sixty 'amazing' kids in the exams in order to get those classes. If your number sixty one or under, you have to choose a different class to try out for like; Business, Guardsmen, Chambermen or other, trust me, you don't want to be any of those, they're boring as Hell itself. I put my name down to be an alter ego, those egos are rare, you have to work really hard and have to have uncontrollable powers like me; shadow, possession and death. I'm getting into that top class, wither they like it or not...
Two days later...
I already finished the theory exam, today is the practical exam, I now stood in a waiting room with all these other demons "Elizabeth Widow, Nakiea Blodshard, Ruinia Horizon and Charlotte Copper, please follow me. She locked us into separate rooms with a camera watching us, it's a maze "You are to complete the maze and dodge objects along the way using your powers, you will be timed. Once you complete the maze, your time will be recorded and you'll be allowed to go home, your time starts now" I have dealt with mazes and puzzles before thanks to Gamer, so I decided to think like him. I started to run, remembering Gamer's stupid puzzle rhyme "Always know what is right" I turned right, fork in the path, two ways, one a straight line, the other to the left of it "Make sure your out of lines" I took the left. "Opposites always attract" I turned right, now in the middle of the maze "Always be ready for a attack" I quickly dodged an attack from a robot. I used my death power, placing my hand on the metal machine before it crumbled at my touch. Remembering other parts of the rhyme in my head and dodging about three other robots before finally making it to the end- there's one more fucking robot- shit! It's a zero pointer! Zero pointers are hard to dodge and even harder to beat head on, plus this one is actually blocking the exit, I have no choice.... I have to face it head on. I tried to find a blind spot, but the fucking thing just wouldn't let me through, it even threw me back at the wall. I'm getting tied, the machine aimed an arm at me, liquid dripping off it- "Shit!" I quickly moved as holy water shot out, half of it got my leg, but I was alright- I completely forgot "Holy water doesn't hurt me!" I exclaimed, seeing the robot over heard me and changed it's poisonous liquid to liquefied demon glass "Okay, that would definitely hurt" I dodged demon glass left to right until I got on top of the machine without it knowing. Using my power, I placed my hand on it's metal surface, it blacken to ash before falling down, I jumped off it and ran to the exit just before it was blocked off by the now broken robot. The exit was a little room "Congratulations, you've survived the practical exam. You'll get your test results in two weeks" I walked out of the room, back into the waiting room "Elizabeth Widow?" "Yeah" I walked up to the desk "Please sign here and your tests will be sent to E.U" I signed the papers and walked back to Hell's palace. I knocked on the gate "WHO IS IT?!!" "It's me, Dark Angel" I groaned "S-sorry Dark Angel" the guard apologized, letting me in....
