Chapter 4: I'm an Angel?
As Joey looks at the giant door a lot was going through his mind. This was the start of something unbelievable, something which he always dreamt of.
"Should I do it? This is a one-way trip to a lot of adventure and much more!".As he thought that he looked at Nagisa and held out his hand.
"If I'm going to do this I want to do this together with you". He said.
Nagisa looked at Joey's hand and blushed slightly as she reached for it.
"Together" she said smiling. Together they pushed open the giant door from which a giant light spawned which could enlighten the darkest of shadows. When the light was fading slightly there was an old man. He had long gray hair and Joey guessed him to be between the ages of 70 and 80. Just like Krad, he was wearing the same white robes.
"Who..are you?" Joey asked.
"I am your leader, I am God" the man said.
Joey and Nagisa were surprised by such words, who could declare himself God? But they both kind of knew it was him, they had seen so much they know this man couldn't be lying.
" God.. I see.. but what business do you have with us?" Joey asked
God smiled upon him and raised his hands.
"You Joey and Nagisa, you are the Reincarnations of the two mightiest of Angels." he spoke. They both looked shocked. This man claimed to be God said they were Angels, and not just regular ones but very powerful ones.
"You claim us to be reincarnation of powerful Angels. Is this why those monsters were after me and Nagisa?" Joey asked.
"Indeed, those monsters were actually Demons spawned to kill you to prevent to get your full powers." the man replied. Nagisa looked down for a second.
"But I'm just me, how can I be something special? And why would they want to kill me?" she said.
"You were once the great Angel Arcadia, you were always alongside Joey here in his previous life" God said to Nagisa to cheer her up. Nagisa looked up and smiled.
"Arcadia? Silly name, but I like it." she laughed a bit and looked at Joey. God turned towards Joey and held his shoulder.
"And you.. you were the mightiest among Angels."
"the..most powerful? But.. how.." Nagisa looked at Joey who was pretty confused.
"You were the might Arch Angel Avo. Elemental Lord of Light. Avo for short" Joey looked at God and looked to Nagisa.
"If I were so powerful, why did I die?" Joey asked. God looked down and showed a serious look at the both of them.
"You sacrificed yourself to save the entire world you are in right now. You sacrificed yourself to save Ereana, which is our world." Joey eyes widened as he heard those words.
"Sacrificed?"
"Allow me to tell the whole story, a few hundred year ago you were fighting the Elemental Lord of Darkness, who was called Ner'Zul at that time. Your powers matched his completely and it was a fierce battle, both Heaven and Hell were pulled in and almost destroyed until you.. called upon the mightiest of powers feared by everyone who might know it. You used all of your powers to leech both yourself and Ner'Zul from all Magic. Resulting into a massive explosion".
Joey and Nagisa were amazed by the story which God just told them.
"But what about me?" Nagisa asked, "How did I die?"
"You used your own powers to enhance the destruction Avo's blast gave, you too died in the blast."
Joey looked at Nagisa and smiled a little.
"You were quite loyal to me weren't you?" Joey said teasing.
"Loyal?" God said smiling "You two were married, and were very lovely-dovey
Nagisa and Joey turned their heads from each other and were blushing majorly. God laughed at them and looked at them.
"Don't worry about that you two, I think it's time for you two to take a good rest before we start training".
"Training?" they both said at the same time.
"Certainly, those powers don't come back flying themselves"
They both looked down and Joey started smiling.
"Why do we need our powers again now though?" Joey asked curiously. God blinked and looked at Joey, letting out a sigh.
"To tell you the truth, Joey, something very horrible has happened..." He started. "Not to long ago... Elemental Lord of Darkness, Ner'Zul, has reïncarnated as well into a new Elemental Lord of Darkness. Plaguedmind". Joey nodded slowly
"And this Plaguedmind fella' wants to destroy the world as well?" Joey asked.
"Correct... And this time, he has two other Elements aiding him. Fire and Air. Archfiend Plaguedmind wants to take over the world again and this is why you must stop him. That is your reason for being here now" God spoke. Nagisa seemed shocked by it all.
"But you're God! Can't you do anything about it?" She asked quickly.
"I myself and Lucifer, also called the Devil, may not interfere with Ereana directly. This is the most what I can do. It is to train the two of you to save Ereana as we know it." He spoke. Nagisa and Joey nodded slowly at the same time. The weight of responsibility really started to hit them. They would have to save an entire world from destruction.
"Don't you two worry. You'll make good friends along the way. We even have the Water and the Earth Element beside us as allies." God said with a smile. Both Joey and Nagisa let out a little smile. Having friends and allies was a good thing.
"Now, you two should rest. I'll get Krad to take you to your rooms. And that he may act a little less formal. We're all family in here" He spoke. Suddenly Krad appeared behind them.
"If you would follow me" Krad said with a smile. The two of them did, and started walking through the castle to a hallway which had just one door in. their room's door. As they opened the door they saw a giant white bed and a lot of other beautiful things.
"I'm sold, I'm never leaving" Nagisa said with here eyes wide open. She looked around and suddenly stumbled upon a portrait which had two people on them.. they looked exactly like her and Joey.
"Oh my god Joey look at this portrait.. that's us two" Joey walked to the picture and looked at it.
"Krad, how old were we when we died fighting Ner'Zul?" Joey asked
"Over two hundred years old. So was you're wife." He said.
"Wow... We look good! ...And married as well, Heaven really doesn't let time pass does it?" Joey asked. Nagisa had to laugh about Joey and was still looking around.
"So Krad.." Joey said as he was walking to him. "How should we call ourselves? Avo and Acradia or Joey and Nagisa?" Krad smiled faintly.
"I'll call you Joey and Nagisa" Krad said with a smile. Joey chuckled and returned the smile as he looked over at Nagisa. Who suddenly squealed.
"Oh my god I had good taste 200 years ago! These clothes are beautiful!" she said wearing a beautiful white silk nightdress. Joey's face went from normal to tomato-red in an instant, looking at Krad.
"She was like this 200 years ago too you know" Krad said.
"R-really now..." Joey replied. Krad left the room to get some rest of their own, leaving Joey and Nagisa alone. As they were preparing to go to sleep Joey was walking through the room over and over, looking for something.
"Stand still for a moment Joey! What are you looking for anyway?" Nagisa said a little irritated.
"Well were in the room of the two most powerful angels of the universe and you tell me they didn't have weapons in their own room for surprise attacks?" He said.
"Well.. I guess so, but why do you have to find them now?" she asked.
"I'm just very curious what weapons we used to have" Joey walked to the portrait of him and Nagisa. He looked better at himself and saw some inscribing and he read them out loud.
"There's something here... Open sesame?" He said. As he did, the room started to shake a little bit. The entire room start transforming it seemed.. The drawers sank in the ground and were replaced for tables with throwing knives the closet switched with a rack full of swords axes and maces. And finally the bed moved aside and showed a plateau with a long light blue blade and red with black bow and arrows covered with fire.
"That.. is awesome" Joey said with his eyes widened.
"Can't we do this tomorrow I'm tired" Nagisa said rubbing her eyes.
"Well.. I guess so.. but how we going to get this back?" He said.
"Just come to bed!" Nagisa said and suddenly everything started moving back to its place.
"I don't want to know what kind of passwords YOU installed and for what uses 200 years ago" Joey said teasingly. Nagisa smiled and looked around.
"I like it in here, even the room listens to me" she said smiling. Joey changed himself and went in bed next to Nagisa.
"As awkward as this may be, I can't wait until tomorrow, after then we'll be true angels.
They both smiled at each other and closed their eyes, dreaming on how the next few day would be.
"Should I do it? This is a one-way trip to a lot of adventure and much more!".As he thought that he looked at Nagisa and held out his hand.
"If I'm going to do this I want to do this together with you". He said.
