Stained Fate 14 and 15

Stained Fate 14

The main mistake humans make about heaven is thinking it is peaceful, well yes, inside the gates, but daily sieges from the demons leave the people lost and disorientated, the endless battle with the redwing hordes, yet they can still dispatch me to retrieve an ex-ANGel who just happened to keep his command line and weapons. Said ex-ANGel heaped to be a Tsubasa Enshii – ex-basher 2nd class and Gunslinger 1st class, the ex-ANGel and management elite had met on the streets of Tokyo, the fire fight had quickly turned to a melee.

Enshii stood with his basher sword on a diagonal slant in front of him, his wings spanned around his body, the management elite hovered above him with his dagger at the ready. Enshii jumped into the air while takeing a slash at the management ANGel,

His slash missed as the elite swooped to the ground, pulled out a semi-automatic handgun and discharged a few shots at Enshii as Enshii swooped down at him, the buster sword was swung only to clash with the opponents dagger, the management ANGel started shooting point blank at Enshii, all but one shots missed, the one that hit only skimming Enshii's right arm, Enshii cringed, threw himself forward, kneed his opponent in the weakest part of the male anatomy , then flipped over his opponent landing behind him,

"Never leave your targets open" Enshii said with not only a voice but also eyes of pure evil, he turned around bringing his sword just above the know kneeling ANGel,

"Death before dishonour" Enshii said forcing his blade straight through the management angel's torso, he then put his foot on the back of his now silenced opponent and removed his blade.

Later that day

Enshii seemed to have returned to his usual, non-combatant self, he lay on the roof of his room staring up at the afternoon sky.

"Watcha doing?" Kaori asked, entering from her window

"Waiting for night" Enshii replied, Kaori laughed and lay down next to him, now also staring at the sky.

"Hey, there are a few things I've been wondering about Heaven"

"Go ahead… ask"

"Why are the natural disasters?" Kaori asked

"Algorithm problems, the computers in heaven control everything but life on earth, if someone where to shutdown G.O.D the gate to the demon realm would fly open and this place would be covered in destruction in a matter of seconds" Enshii explained

"Ahh, and what's a record day?"

"That… would be the day that I got registered as reborn, it would also be the day that I died"

"You died, on this day, some many years ago!!??" Kaori exclaimed as she threw herself into a sitting position

"Yep, June 24th 1984"

Stained Fate 15

Enshii was bored, he was at his schools Marksman club, he had been practicing for over two hours with his usual dual .50AE semi-automatic handguns, though he never missed a target, he knew he had to be faster, yet more precise.

"Why do you use those? There has to be guns a lot easier to fire than those" asked a girl that seemed to randomly appear next to him, he noted she wasn't wearing firing gloves or goggles, then again, nether was he.

"Stand back, these guns have kick" he said without turning around

"Then shouldn't you use less powerful guns?"

"I'm comfortable with these guns" Enshii said pumping a few more shots into one of the moving targets head, he then release the clips and let them fall to the ground, slammed in two new clips and took the head off the next target.

"Round over! 30 out of 30, nice shooting" yelled the range manager, the girl stood shocked.

That same day, Afternoon

Enshii was sitting out side of the apartment block; Kaori appeared from the door next to him.

"If you're not on the roof, you're out here"

"Generally"

"What are you doing?"

"Thinking"

"About…?"

"What my name used to be, Tsubasa Enshii was the name I picked after landing in Heaven, one of the side effects of the port is forgetting ones name"

"Do you have any idea what so ever?"

"Apart from it being Swedish, no", Ehshii said… all fell silent for a minuet

"What about your grave?" Kaori asked

"What about it… I was buried next to my mother from what I remember… my mother, all I need to do is find her grave, and its one of the ones next to hers!", Enshii said as he checked for people, grabbed his pendent and ripped it off he then bounced off the ground into the air.

"Hey! Take me with you!" Kaori yelled

"No time!" as he ascended, once he was at the right height, he moved his wings into the high speed position. He had been around the world a few times on ANGel missions, getting to Sweden was easy enough, he continued on.

An hour later (that's pretty good time for a Tokyo to Sweden trip) he was soaring over Stockholm, his eyes darted around the ground trying to spot the cemetery he was buried… There! He descended at high speed only pulling up to land. He looked at the grave in front of him…

'here lies Eva Axelsson'

"Axelsson… my last name!" he looked to the left

'Here lies Klas Lindkvist' "nope" Enshii looked to the right…

'Here lies Jonas Axelsson, son of Eva and Leon, merely a boy when he was struck down by fate, a boy known to many as a leader, a fighter, never giving up until it was positively clear all options where useless.'

Enshii fell to one knee, tears started falling.

"Jonas... Mum…"

To be continued…
