Chapter 5

I tried ways and means to get the boys to notice me, but my efforts went down the drain. They were talking about stuff I totally do not understand. Finally, I gave up. I grabbed my bag and was about to leave when Callum asked," Hey, where are you going?"
I turned back, surprised tt he noticed me, after so long. " Home" I answered. " I will walk you home!" he said cheerfully. " I also need to get going, anyway." Aaron added. I smiled as the boys gathered their things and we walked out together. " My house is on the other end of this street. see ya." Aaron bade us goodbye. But, I noticed he seemed to be afraid to meet my eye...
Callum and I then continued our journey, until an alarm shook my world. There was loud and piercing alarm ringing in my head.I could feel my power rising. My heart felt like it was going to explode any moment. My sixth sense told me someone was in trouble. I always had this feeling when Callum or Sapphire was in need. However, Callum was by my side and Sapphire was having a meeting with the other angels. What could happen to her? Suddenly, it hit me. I raced to the opposite direction, ignoring Callum. I ran like a bullet train, my feet almost leaving the ground,I had the sudden urge to fly. My eyes were darting around frantically, looking for the familiar figure. I prayed with all my might that he was safe and sound.
Then, I saw him. He limply stood in the middle of the road. His eyes open widely, his gaze never leaving the BMW that was going to crash into him in mere seconds.
" NO!" I shouted, charging forward and pushed him away from the oncoming vehicle. It was a close shave.Both of us flew through the air and landed with a heavy "thud" on the ground. We panted heavily and I heaved a sigh of relief. Aaron, my destiny mortal, was breathing.He was alive. Then, I heard a groan. I realised I was on top of him, and he was bleeding profusely. It seemed that he had hit his head against the tarmac ground and scratched himself too. I quickly clambered away from him and helped him up. He was in an awful sight. Blood trickled down his forehead and dripped drop by drop on his collar. " Do you think you can still walk?" I asked. I could tell he was in pain but I could not use my powers to spare him the agony. I was in a fix.
Then, Callum was beside us." OMQ! Buddy, wad the hell happened to you?! Sephy, wad hapened?! GOSH!!!" He shouted, oblivious to the passer-bys crowding around us nosily.
In low voice I said," Callum, I will explain to you soon.Call for the ambulance immediately. Aaron is seriously injured." Callum swiftly fished out his phone and dialed for the ambulance with shaky fingers.
In the ambulance, I sat by Aaron's side, clutching his hand tightly. Callum, on the other hand, was as pale as Aaron. It seemed that both boys gt a shock. After what seemed like eternity, we reached the hospital and Aaron went unconscious due to loss of blood, but mainly because of the shock he received. Caalum looked like he was going to pass out any time too. I got him a coffee and excused myself to the ladies.
My mind was in a whirl. No matter how I think, I still could not understand how Aaron almost met with an accident when I did not plan it at all. I then decided to seek help from Sapphire.
Luckily, Sapphire had just ended the meeting. When she saw me, she beamed. " My dearest Persephone! I missed you so much!"
" Me too. Sapphire, I am here today to ask you a question. "I said.
Sapphire raised an eyebrow," Sounds serious. let's hear it."
" How come my Destiny Mortal met with a car accident when I did not write it in my Destiny Book?" I asked.
"Hmm...there are 2 possibilities. The first one is that someone changed what you wrote in the Destiny Book. The other one is that the Death Angels were the ones behind it." she explained.
"The first one is impossible..But wad are Death Angels? How come I have never heard of them before?" I was puzzled and had an ominous feeling about it.
" Death Angels can be said to be the most powerful immortals in the 3 realms. They have immense power and so, have the right to kill any mortal they like. Thus, we have to protect our Destiny Mortal. We have to be by their sides until the day you decide for them to die. We must never offend the Death Angels or else war will break out in heaven, Understand?" Sapphire explained.
"I do nt wish to have anything to do with those death Angels. they sound horrible." I said.
Sapphire laughed and ushered me back to Aaron's side. But her laughter stopped when she gave me a last warning that the Death Angels will not let the matter rest that easily...
