Previous ChapterNext ChapterLeila was sitting with Michael and his friends, she found that her and sunset had a lot in common. They were both fascinated by the fact that Michael is an angle, they both liked to do things hands on, and most of all they were friends with Michael. They both had a question to ask Michael, but they were quietly discussing who should ask. In the end, it was Leila who gave in and ended up being the one to ask.
"Hey Michael, if your an angle, then why are you stuck here on earth." She asked. Michael looked her in the eyes, he let out a sigh. 'Here goes another sad back story.' He thought.
"My brother is the most well known, and well loved arch angle. But, it wasn't always that way. I use to be the most loved, because of my vow to protect the innocent. my brother became jealous, and cast me out of the aether and striping me of my powers. But before I was stripped of my power, I created a single statue that would restore my power. The last thing I could sense before I blacked out, was a blackness inside his heart. To this day, he still has a darkness living inside of him. I'm sure he isn't to happy with me right now, since I have my power back." Michael said.
"Oh, I'm sorry for asking." Leila said.
"It's alright. Besides, at least he can't try to strip me of my power again. I don't think he can leave the aether." Michael said. The sky quickly became dark with clouds, and a rain began to fall. "Me and my big mouth." He said. From the clouds fell a human like figure with wings. He impacted the group, leaving the ground under him cracked. The rain did not stop, and the sky did not clear. Michael unfurled his wings and stood up to face his brother.
"Hello, Kethos." The man said.
"Heith." He said.
"I see you have your wings, pity I'll have to remove them again." Heith said.
"Yeah yeah, my name is Michael now by the way you prick." Michael said.
"You know brother, I should have destroyed you. But I didn't, I won't make that mistake again." Heith said. He flew at Michael at high speeds. Michael caught his fist before it could connect with his body.
"If we are going to fight we are not going to do it here, to many people could get hurt." He said. Heith laughed.
"So you care for these insects now do you? Very well, where shall we fight?" Heith asked.
"Follow me." Michael said. He flew straight up, high above the city. They stopped about five hundred feet up from the ground.
"So this is the grounds in which you've chosen? I'll say this, you sure know how to pick an open court. Now..." Heith cracked his knuckles. "Let the fight begin." He lunged at Michael, flying at his top speed. Michael made an x with his arms and the fist impacted, the impact created a big boom. Both of them were straining, trying to push against one another. Michael shifted and let the fist fly past his body, he punched heith in the face. Heith was sent flying and Michael followed after him. Heith stopped himself and proceeded to try and lung at him again. He tried to kick Michael, but Michael blocked it with his lower leg.
the girls watched on from below, a look of shock was plastered across their faces. Each blow created a small sonic wave from the massive amounts of force being applied. The two angles went to throw a punch at the same time, their fists collided and the shock wave knocked them back from each other. Heith charged a up a blast of black energy and shot it at Michael. Michael put his hand out and stopped the blast, heith looked on with a smug look on his face.
"I see you can stop my low energy attacks, how cute. But now it's time to die." He charged another attack, this beam was bigger and stronger then the last. Michael put both of his hands out and fired a blast of white energy to counter the blast. The two beams meet and were at a stand still. The two stopped firing two let the smoke clear. Michael flew at heith full force and landed a punch, the punch hit him in the face. The force of the blow almost sent heith flying, but Michael grabbed him by the legend threw him up into the sky. He blasted him with another attack. Heith was a little bruised and beaten up, his clothes were torn and dirty and he was panting.
Heith warped to Michael and gave him a strong upper cut. He warped to Michael again and hit him in the gut before blasting him. Michael had blood coming from the corner of his mouth, and his leather clothes were dirty and beaten. He wiped the blood away from his mouth and cracked his neck. He warped to heith and started delivering punch after punch, his fists were like lightning. He stopped punching and cupped his hands together, he raised them over his head. With a quick swing, he bashed heith over the head with the fist. Heith was pissed, he punched Michael in the gut repeatedly. He warped behind Michael, who was bent over from the blows to the stomach, and used his elbow to sharply jab Michael in the back.
Michael fell a few feet before he came to a stop. He warped to heith, grabbed him, and smashed his spine over his knee. As heith lay there on michaels knee, Michael began to repeatedly smash his elbow into heith's stomach. He dropped his leg down and let heith fall, heith didn't try to stop himself. Michael flew after heith and delivered his strongest punch, this increased the speed of his decent. Heith smashed into the group and just sat there coughing blood. Michael landed next to him, he just looked at his brother.
"B-brother, have mercy." Heith said.
"You destroyed my mercy a long time ago heith." He held his hand out, facing the palm at heith. "Now your gonna feel my wrath." He blasted heith with his most powerful beam of energy. Heith screamed as he was being destroyed, Michael shed a single tear for his brother. When Michael stopped, there was nothing left of heith. The rain did not stop, the storm had become a thunder storm. As bolts of lightning dances across the sky, moving from cloud to cloud, Michael pulled out one of his chains. It wrapped itself around his hand and he raised the hand to the sky. He looked towards the sky with a serious look on his face. He lowered his hand, but not his gaze.
It wasn't until he heard the sound of Leila's boots clicking on the wet concrete, that he looked down. He looked Leila right in the eyes, she slowly approached him. She wrapped her arms around him, Michael returned the gesture. They stopped hugging when a loud crack of thunder erupted, signaling them to get inside. They walked through the front door to see everyone had been watching. They all cleared a path for them to walk. Some gave Michael a pat on the shoulder, some gave him genial hugs, and others just starred at him in shock. He stopped in the middle of the main foyer. He turned to face everyone.
"You will no longer refer to me as a spirit of vengeance, but instead as a spirit of justice." He said, he sat down on a bench located in the foyer to rest. Someone started clapping, and pretty soon everyone there followed. They stopped when principle celestia and vice principal Luna came through. Celestia cleared her throat.
"In spite of these newest events, we are going to expunge your suspensions from your record. We are also awarding you, with the student of the year award." She said, he students behind her started cheering and applauding. Michael smiled and rested his head against the wall behind him.
