• PART 2

    An alarm went of from somewhere distant, Celia woke up, squinting at the light coming through her window. She reached over and turned her alarm of, she was still in her regular cloths. She sat up and rubbed her eyes 7:01. Her heart suddenly leapt when she realized something and she catapulted of her bed, running to the window and staring into the sky. Nothing.
    After breakfast in witch Celia had kept silent, her mum had driven her to school. They got there early. They got out the car, her mum waved goodbye and hurried into the school. Celia watched after her, then, slowly walked into the schoolyard were Blake was waiting as usual outside with his “minions”, waiting for Celia to come in so they could taunt her. As soon as she came in the boys all came running over to her, her eyes widened, she thought there were going to stop in front of her but she was wrong, the boys ran, and kept running, right into her as if she weren’t there. She crashed to the floor, and then they turned and ran back, laughing as they trampled on her. Celia cried out in pain. When they were over her she sat up, bruises all over her body. Blake stepped over to her, grinning all over, have gave her his hand, she didn’t want to take it because she new all to well what he would do. He frowned and shook his hand again, no response. He lent down and grabbed her hand and hauled her up. “…Please.” She said, his leg went back, and was about to come into contact with her leg, he was going to kick her over, but instead, he was suddenly hauled back by someone. Celia spun round. A man was there, he grabbed Blake's arm, slipped his foot between his legs, twirled him around and tripped him up. Blake crashed to the floor in surprise, his eyes wide
    “What they hell are you doing?” he shrieked, the man was smirking. And he turned. Rayos. Celia stared at him, he had no wings, he hand know bright aura around him…what? He walked over to Celia and smiled “like I said…” he said quietly
    “I’m protecting you. I’m sorry for what I said, but if you let me protect you, you’ll be fine.” Celia thought about this for a second, it was certainly better that dieing at any rate. She wouldn’t have any bullying, and she could go to sleep no worrying about Blake or the others. She looked up at Rayos and slowly nodded “only if you never the mention the…death, thing again, ok?” Rayos nodded his head.
    “Fair enough.” They had gathered a small crowed now and Blake was trying to get up. He straightened himself up and walked over to Rayos, trying to seem tough, he tried to come eye to eye to him to seem more menacing, but his eyes only came up to his chest.
    “Who are you-” he said “-to do that to me? Who are you?” Rayos stared down at him then he glanced at Celia.
    “I’m her big brother…and what you gonna do about it?” Blake thought for a second, this guy was bigger than him, so what? He was cool…coolio, he could beat this guy any day…
    “This!” black said, and swooped his fist in to land a punch into Rayos’s stomach, but Rayos caught his fist and twisted, Blake cried out and did a twirl to un-twist his arm. Rayos twisted then twisted Blake’s hand behind his back hard, forcing the boy down to his knees. “Please.” Blake begged, “Let me go!” he had begun to cry, people in the crowed were smirking at the baby. Rayos stood there for a second, Blake still in his grip, then he let go and Blake gasped and brought his arm back round to his front. Rayos faced him.
    “Now.” He said, “say sorry.” Blake blinked, then turned to Celia “uhh…I’m…I’m sorry…” Rayos frowned.
    “Is that it? “uhh…I’m…I’m sorry…” that’s it then is it?”
    “I’m sorry!” Blake suddenly shouted, “I’m sorry Celia! I'm sorry I trampled, spat and was horrible to you!”
    “Much better.” Rayos said, and Blake ran of blubbering like a baby. Celia stared at Rayos.
    “Uh…thanks…”
    “No problem, like I said, I’m here to protect.” He smiled.
    “So…you going to go now then?”
    “Go? No, not yet, not until in absolutely shore.” Celia nodded. the bell rang for beginning of school “see you then.” Rayos said and He crept round the back of the school, his wings un-morphed from his body, stretched out, then rapped up around him, completely covering him, making a pod, and he vanished.

    Classes for Celia had gone fine all morning, break had been ok, except Blake and the boys had all huddled together in the corner of the yard and whispered to each other, glancing at Celia occasionally. After school had ended, Celia came out of school and was about to walk round the back of the school, when Blake stepped in front of her and barred her way
    “Where’d you think your going?” he said, staring at her
    “Um…round…here?” he shook his head.
    “How dare you try and get someone else to get us because your to week! A weakling! A bloody weakling!” he shoved her back, and she suddenly fell backwards over one of the boys outstretched foot, she crashed to the floor and Blake kicked her hard in the ribs, Celia cried out in pain and curled up into a weak ball, Blake put a boot on her stomach and stomped down hard, Celia gasped as the wind rushed out of her and she turned over onto her stomach, cradling it and trying to suck in the air, choking. She felt the familiar taste of bile build up in the back of her throat and she gagged, she wanted to be sick. She felt another hard boot crack into her ribs in the same spot and she cried again, then wet mud was pelting down her. She turned over and looked up, everything was blurred, was this the end? Was this the stage of bullying that Rayos had been talking about? Was she going to…die? But just as Blake was coming in for another kick, he was suddenly pulled back and crashed to the floor hard, he cried out in surprise and he lay there “I!” he cried “I…I cant move!” he wasn’t moving at all, he seemed paralyzed. “I can’t bloody move! Someone help me!” but the boys had all run off. Celia slowly sat up, then she felt someone’s arm on her waist and she was pulled up, everything was still so blurred, but she could just make up the shape of Blake, and someone crouching next to him, speaking to him quietly. Blake had gone quiet, far to quiet. Rayos stood up from bakes side and stepped over to Celia, who was stumbling, he held her tightly. Blake was pale, very pale, he suddenly clenched and unclenched his fingers to check if they were working, then he jumped up and ran of crying. Rayos crouched down to Celia’s height
    “Are you ok? …Silly question.”
    “no…ill be ok, I think.” Celia said, suddenly coughing. Rayos smiled at her and smoothed a wisp of hair from her face, an suddenly, Celia’s vision cleared and she stared into Rayos’s deep blue beautiful eyes, they seemed to sparkle, she swore that she had never seen a blue this beautiful before… and as she stared, she felt the pain slowly going, vanishing. “Yeah.” She said “ye, I’m fine.” Rayos smiled “did you do that?” she asked
    “Who me? …Maybe.” He smirked.
    A man lurked in the shadows behind the wall of the school, his hands hidden in his coat pocket, his long-ish black spiky hair hanging over his eyes. He stared at the girl standing in the schoolyard and the man next to her. Huh, man; he chuckled if you would want to call an angel a human, that is he thought. Oh ye, he could see right through that so called “disguise” Rayos was putting on. this would be his revenge, his revenge for all those years back when Rayos almost killed him, but no, he was to good for the angel, he wasn’t even surprised, angels, weak!
