Chapter 1
 
We're In Heaven
 
It was dark in a world we believe to be real, a world we believe to see after our death. When we die, we're suppose to see a bright light and go towards it and we could hear a beautiful chorus melody burst in a song. We believe that we'd arrive at a golden gate and await our judgment. The land we believe in ever since the day of our birth is surrounded by beautiful landscaping, we can even touch the clouds.
 
The land we believe in to be true is known to taken our sorrow and pain away. Old beings are transformed into young ones again. When we die, it's not the end of the world; it's a start of a new one. Our souls are purified into creatures that symbolize peace, serenity, guidance, and protection. We changed into Angels and the land we believe in is Heaven.
 
But the peace and the serenity all perished when God abandoned us and it turned Heaven into a gruesome world, Angels punish their own kind and it's not like what we believe in anymore. I was there at the time when this al happened, my name's Miyuki and I'm here to tell you the story of how it came to be before this destruction. A story that has not been revealed like a lost episode, the story of my Mother and Father.
 
The sun broke out early one spring day is early May. A house, not too big, not too small, is brightened up by the morning sun's hello. .The sun brightly shines his pride over the mountain tops, defeating the keeper of darkness, the moon. Wake up, Sleeping Beauty, wake up and arise to the sun, Juliet.
 
Resureyu Murderi awoke when the sun showed his face to her. She sat up upon her black blanketed bed and rubbed her eyes, then stood up on her bare feet. The girl enters the bathroom within her own bedroom, her gorgeous silver-blue eyes were still asleep. Wake them up. After splashing ice cold water on her flawless, pale complexion, she reached down to untie the black ribbon at the end of her floor length, long royal blue French Braid. She untwists it like unraveling yarn from its ball; waves of royal blue fell into her eyes as she withdraws her night gown. Resureyu slides the glass door of her shower open and steps in with grace turning on the steamy, hot water.
 
She allows the wet, clear liquid trickle down her bare body as she reached for a sponge to cleanse herself from filth. Moments after taking a shower, she steps into her room again, to endure her body with her clothing of choice. Resureyu tugs at her black velvet corset dress to free it from the forsaken wrinkles it had embedded in its fabric soul. She puts on her blue and black stripped tights and pulled them up, followed along with her pair of black combat boots.
 
Blow drying her hair was such a breeze for her to do and drying off her ebony cat ears along doing so. She applied her black make-up where it was needed and headed out the door, after grabbing her sketch pad. She knew that she could go to the Angel Sanctuary called Heaven by using the locket she put on after tugging at her dress. She needed to research Angels for her studies, ever since she was a little girl; my Mother always had been amazed by these creatures. Mother has always sketched realistic art of the Angels she had believed in.
 
Resureyu closed her eyes and for that instant, she appeared in Heaven, the Heaven we all believe in. This heaven was like a small little town, much purer than the human realm. She walked along the streets of Heaven; she hoped to find an Angel somewhere to study and possibly sketch for her research.
 
 
“All these beings just look like normal people to me,” she said to herself with a doubtful sigh, “Maybe Daddy was right, Angel don't exist...”
 
She came across a a water fountain and gawked at it's beauty and bowed to it before sitting down and opening her sketch pad. Her piercing eyes scanned each and every detail of each sketch she drew. “Was it all just a myth, then? Just a fairytale that I was told?” she wandered, and she wandered a lot. What were these creatures like? And were they really real? She sighed and shook her head for a moment before she closed the book.
 
“Hey, guys! Belial's putting on a show at the club! Come see!” shouted a female voice from afar. Resureyu perked her ears at the mention of the name `Belial' who was this person? Was he an Angel? Well, there was one way to find out and that only way was to follow the crowd of the small town in Heaven.
 
She was next to enter the building that was the club after waiting a good twenty minutes in a long line. The security guards stood in front of her, “ID, please,” spoke one of the guards firmly. Resureyu gave a puzzled look at the man and in response she said, “ID? I'm sorry, I'm not from around here, sir..” her tone mellow and a bit nervous.
 
“Oh, from the human realm, huh?” questioned the guard, “Well…we don't usually let humans in the club, Angels only. But, you seem like a nice little lady, so I suppose we can allow you in,” he said while moving out of the path. She gave him a sweet smile and a nod, and then headed inside.
 
Inside the building it was dark and strobe lights were going insane making shadows of the known race around her. She could see a crowd forming around a table and a pole, it looked like from her distance. She decided to play along and followed them, bustling through the huge crowd to get a better view.
 
A figure of a man stood on the table in front of the crowd, music was blasting loudly and everyone was cheering him on, cheering his name. He stepped out of the shadows as a spot light turned on his direction, shoulder length crimson hair was shining on his head from the lighting. His face was decorated in make-up that reminded her of a Mime, but this man she was examining wasn't a Mime at all. There was something different about him.
 
A top hat tossed up in the air and landed upon Resureyu's head as she kept by and watched. She watched him strip off his manly attire into a female one, she gave him a puzzled look and with her surprise, he reached out and grabbed her hand, he snatched her and pulled her up on the table after taking his hat back. She watched as beautiful butterfly-like wings ripped through his back, he gave her a smile.
 
“New here, aren't you, dear?” he asks her examining her style and looks as he danced on the pole to the music. She just stood on the table and watched in amusement, “No, sir. I'm here because I need research for my studies of Angels…I was wandering maybe you could help me..?” she said through the loud music.
 
Belial nodded his head as he ended his show short and dressed up as a male again. “Of course, dearest, I'd do anything for a lady,” he reached for her hand and kissed the back of it. “Just tell me what you want to know and I'll tell you all that I know, honey.”
 
Resureyu gave a smile and nodded, “I'm Resureyu Murderi, I'm from the human realm.” Belial gave a giggle after poking at the tips of her black cat ears, “You don't look like a human, dear. My name's Belial, The Mad Hatter here in the Sanctuary.”
 
Yep, you guessed it. Belial is my Father and he was a party animal for sure. Cross dresser or not, he's the best father ever. They both walked off towards the sunset shortly after they left the club.
