The Afterparty

[Mariella]

The last seconds were still a slow-motion..

She saw the nova exploding, the mass of energy surrounding her ship and the impact of each beam into the hull.

She heard the words "Angels fall first!"
But she couldn't follow them anylonger..

Mariella noticed Mephistopheles and all his dark power.. He had some creatures, guiding him..
Damian and Usha.. She knew them from a time, long ago.. and remembered the first battles..

She closed her eyes, full of fear, cause she knew, the next step would be painful.
Dividing the soul from the body always was a painful step..
In the moment, when the hull bursted, she was surrounded by the golden light, send from a place
she never really understood.

Then, it was done..


She heard the warm and lovely voice, again:
"Mariella, my Angel.. what have you done.. I have to tell you, the next existence is your last one.
You did way too much in your last lifes"
She was crying.. but it was said to be normal for a just died Angel.. dealing with the dirt of life..

"So.. my daughter.. where shall your last existence start? Your last angelic existence?"
"What will be then," Mariella asked the voice.
"It will be up to you, but.." the voice paused, "but it will be a hard and in the end mortal live with
no extra-powers.."
"Will we beat the DEvils.. ?
"I can't answer that, my dear.."
