Chapter 13: Soul bond
You might think that I'm being paranoid, but I'm not. I know for sure something is wrong with Emily and Emma. I can feel it within myself. Furthermore, I know that it sound strange, and I won't blame you if you think I'm crazy. Something like this happened before. And believe it or not, I'm glad I chose to look for them the very moment I felt that they were in danger.
You might ask yourselves why? Why didn't I think that I was wrong back then? Maybe it was just a feeling and nothing more. Just a result of my paranoia or imagination. It was because, somehow, we bonded to the point where I could feel their emotions if they were very happy, sad, angry or even scared. If those or any other emotion was too strong I could sense it and I would try to reach them if something didn't feel right.
A lot of the older angels said that this was strange and unheard of. But I don't believe them. It's not strange and unheard of, they are just lying.
I didn't understand, why? But now, thinking about that moment I realize that they were trying to protect us. The Elder Circle isn't made of the oldest angels, it's made of angels with unknown powers and who sought power and also wanted to rule. Don't ask me how I know, because it's clear how I know. Lucifer is the eldest angel created by God, followed by Uriel and Azrael. If The Circle of Elders had been made of the eldest angels of the Paradise than those there would have been the first three members. It's rational, right?
Now then, with this explanation I will continue where I left of just a minute ago.
The older angels lied to us, because they were trying to protect us. You may be asking yourselves, from what? From The Circle of Elders. Why? Because those monsters, since I can't name them otherwise, would of have tried to use our bond against us, against me. They would have experimented on us to see how our bond works.
Though, the word bond isn't exactly what we have. It's like a bond but different, it goes by another name as well. What we have is a "Soul Link" which is extremely rare, and it happens only when destruction comes upon us. But until now, whenever it happened, it happened between hunters and two at number, not three. And from then on, after our bond was half-discovered and was taken seriously because it was unheard of a Soul bound between three angels and not to mention that one is a Hunter, one is a Seer and the other is a Follower. Quite strange, right?
To put it frankly, we're like an anomaly. One that it was never been seen before and no one knew how to deal with us. But I'm certain about something since then. If something is to happen to those two, then I would feel it at once.
Now then, I should get going and find them. I can feel that they are scared and vary. Something is wrong and about to happen, so I need to get to their location at once. Meaning, I've got to hurry.
"You alright kiddo? You seem lost."
Mammon is looking at me with, worry? Or maybe curiosity? I don't know and to tell the truth. I don't care. Furthermore, I need to find them. I need to find them fast before something happens again to them.
"I need to go!"
"Wait-"
Too late. I already left the meeting room in a hurry. Running down the corridors, trying my best to find my sisters.
It feels like an eternity passed. In truth, I've only been running for a few minutes. But these corridors are so long or short that you lose the time motion. If only I wouldn't be in a hurry, maybe then I would of have noticed the big panther around the corner on my left. But I did notice them.
"Emily! Emma!"
"Rose!" They yelled together and jumped in my arms. I could tell how scared they were from how hard they were shivering and how shaky their voice sounded. And not to mention how pale they looked.
GROWL
Only then did I take notice of what was behind me. About a meter and a few inches tall. Two meters long and about ninety pounds.
The perfect description for her. A magnificent panther with raven black fur, beautiful blood-red eyes and judging from how sharp her fangs and claws looked, she could tear someone into pieces without even trying.
"We've got to get out of here Rose. That's a feline demon. A poisonous one at that. The poison on her claws could kill in a matter of minutes after entering your system. Our system since we are angels. Just like the poison of our Sacred Guardians could easily kill any type of demon."
"Really? Hmm... Come on here kitty kitty kitty. I just want a few samples of your poison so uncle Rapha can make an antidote for it."
"Stop it, Rose! You don't understand. She can kill you in a matter of a few seconds if you're not careful enough."
"Stop being such a pessimist. Nothing will go wrong. You'll see."
"But-"
"Disaster! Stand down. Those three are not your food nor your toys. And you won't win this battle either."
"You are as good as always at controlling the feline demons, Leviathan."
Disaster. What a fitting name. Now I understand. His eyes are not just for show and the moment he used his affinity over the feline demon, Disasters eye color started to turn green. What an interesting sight to behold. Maybe I'll stick around more than I intended to. plus it's not like I'm imposing since I'm supposed to leave in about two months and I planned to leave right after we signed and finished talking what we needed to talk, leaving Emily and Emma to oversee what would remain to happen.
