Even before I opened my eyes, I knew what it was that I would see. The moonlight, drifting down through the trees to illuminate the quickly moving river I could hear nearby, while the light also reflected off of the forever frost that covered everything in the White Forest. I could feel the cool, soft pile of snow beneath me as I tried to comprehend the pain I could feel getting stronger with every beat of my heart.
I slowly open my eyes, looking at the beautiful wintry forest around me as I sit up in the snowbank. Suddenly, I understand my pain, and begin to spread my wings to take flight. There's a Demon nearby! Somehow, when I fell, I had returned from my Warrior form into my true form, a pure Angel, which was much more vulnerable to a Demon Warrior than even a human could be. The pain, a built-in genetic warning to tell me that I was too vulnerable, was a blessing that had saved my life many times.
I was able to take flight and change back into my Warrior form within seconds. Surveying the area, I noticed the Demon almost immediately. She was literally on fire, although the trees and brush around her did not catch, which meant that it was simply a weapon of her Warrior form. I did not know if she had noticed me while I had been asleep, or if she had not seen me until just now, but either way she was looking right at me as I hovered in the air.
"What is it, why do you stare like that Demon? Have you never seen an Angel before?" I say the words while amplifying my voice. hopefully I will not have to fight this Demon, I may be able to simply scare it off.
"Oh, I've seen Angels before. I've just never seen one when they aren't a Warrior. You should stay that way more often, you were much cuter then." The She-Demon's voice was too sweet, too cold. It almost hurt to listen to her, but I did.
"Begone Demon. I've no reason to fight you at the moment, and I'd rather not have to deal with you right now."
"Fine, but tell me one thing. Why'd you fall from the sky like that? Or would you rather not tell a Demon?" The She-Demon laughed at the end, as if she thought she had told a funny joke. So, She did see me before I woke up. I was lucky then, that she didn't kill me as I slept. I did not want to continue speaking to this Demon, however she had asked a question that I myself wanted an answer to.
My memory of the time before I woke was still foggy, however as I thought about it I was able to work out the most important details.
As I remembered, I was thankful for the fact that I healed quickly, and briefly wondered why the Demon Nevil and my sister Ryba had not come to finish me off. I quickly did an inventory of my injuries, finding that the dagger had been removed from my abdomen, leaving a rather tender scar above my navel, while the wounds on my back and wings had healed completely thanks to the snow and were now only slightly sore.
"You're right, I would rather not tell a Demon. So if you'll excuse me-" I had turned around in the air to head away, when suddenly in front of me was yet ANOTHER Demon. I'd say he looked quite terrifying, especially because just seconds before the warning pain in my neck had become almost unbearable. His eyes glowed a deep blood red and his skin was an ashen grey color. He wore a hooded cloak of shadows, likely a familiar, and no wings, which meant he was especially skilled with magic.
I backed up into a tall tree in my attempt to run away. I had no idea how I looked, but I was 99.99% sure that it wasn't like a powerful Angel should.
