Alex Zurita is a typical high school kid, he has friends, plays video games, and "attempts" to get the girl of his dreams. But, life is boring, ...until the day his life changes forever.
One day Alex gets into a fight with a fellow classmate, in the middle of the fight something awakens within alex, the inner power is great enough to knock both the kid (and alex) unconcious. when alex awakens he finds himself huddled by kids wondering what just happened, he also notices white feathers littered on the grass around him.
From that day on, alex's life would change forever.

"that was amazing!!!!" Devlin shouted into the phone, Alex pulled his head away from the phone, checking to see if his ears still functioned
"yeah thanks for that, im deaf now"
dev laughed and said "i still cant believe you won in a fight against victor! hes the biggest guy in school!"
"yeah i know, i cant believe it myself either. in fact, i dont even remember what happened, what did happen?" alex questioned tim
"well lets see, first you were getting your a** handed to you, until........" he paused.
"until what?" alex asked,
"well. it was wierd, you were just trying to fight back then.....well it looked like, to me, your eyes glowed a different color"
"a different color? like what?" alex said surprisingly
"well they looked" he paused " ...white."
"haha tim stop smoking pot" alex responded
"no im serious! and after that there was a white light coming from the back of your shirt. and you suddenly dissapeared, but then you appeared behind victor, and then you punched him in the gut you sent him back a few feet, it was awesome!" dev said
"ok now i know your on pot" alex said looking into a mirror, staring at his brown eyes.
"anyways after that he went flying and he hit a parked car, then he blacked out i guess, then you stood there, eyes glowing and all, then you just sort of.... collapsed. it took us 30 minutes to wake you up. we got you out of there quick before more trouble arrived." devlin said excitingly "it was like a movie!"
"wow i cant believe i really did that, thats wierd as hell" alex said worringly
"yeah but did you see all those white feathers everywhere?"
"actually that was the main thing i did notice," alex said, he was holding a glossy white feather in his hands, it was strangely tough, yet it was really soft at the same time "where did they come from?"
"no idea, but, i think they came from you"
"haha yeah right, why would they some from me, i mean -beep-, oh hold on devlin i have another call -beep- ill call you later"
"whatever all i know is that they werent there before your fight, see ya!"
alex switched calls "hello"
a females voice sounded from the phone, it was soft and comforting "hi is alex there?"
alex wondered who this was "umm yeah, may i ask whos speaking?"
"this is Eden" said the voice

Alex was shocked, he was surprised to actually hear from her, he has liked Eden ever since the beggining of freshman year, hes always thought that she was cute, funny, and overall an awesome person
"oh umm..... hey" alex responded quickly
she laughed "what? you werent expecting me to call were you?"
"not at all. heh im still kinda shocked your even calling"
"yeah well im kinda surprised the way you knocked out victor"
"oh, umm you saw that huh" said alex worringly
"yes i did, it was.....strange" she said
"yeah i know, it was strange for me too. anyways i didnt know you were there."
"mmhmm i saw you when i was walking home, first i saw you losing..." Eden whispered
"yeah i know, that was horrible"alex said
"until you went all psycho on him, that was amazing" she said excitingly
"i wouldnt call it psycho, i would call it.... strange"
"i mean, your eyes were glowing."
alex sighed, he thought it was wierd hearing it from two different people without him actually remembering it "hah thats what my other friend said, but i dont believe him"
"but its true!" she said
"why would they glow all of a sudden, it makes no sense!"
"well it happened, and it was amazing, oh yeah what was with those strange feathers everywhere?"
"no idea" alex responded
"well i picked one up, i like them, i've kept it with me all day" she said happily
"yeah i know, i grabbed one too" he said, holding it in his hands
"well i think i gotta go, it was nice talking to you by the way"
"oh, yeah same here, umm quick question? whered you get my number from?"
"i got it from roger, hes in some of my honors classes with me, hes given me your number awhile ago, but ive kinda been too nervous too call"
alex was surprised "ha, well, ....really?
"yeah i know it sounds stupid, heh well it was good talking to you, see ya at school tommorow!"
"yeah, see ya" he hung up his phone
he layed down on his bed, tired, and confused.
when he finally drifted off to sleep alex had one of the strangest dreams ever.

Alex dreamt of a room with a circular table, the walls were constantly changing color, flowing from black to silver to blue.
three men in cloaks entered the room, they sat down across from each other. the men stared at each other with serious eyes. finally one of the men broke the silence
"well it appears weve found him."
one of the men looked at him "what are you talking about Aderyn?"
Aderyn responded simply "in the last couple hours weve recieved word that an enormous amount of holy power surged from earth." he said solemnly, his face looked stern but excited
the other silent man spoke suddenly, in a bored voice "so what. it could be one of our angels just guiding another human soul"
Aderyn looked at him "well this one is different Antonello, it had a specific power source, it derived from the same power we have"
Antonello suddenly looked surprised "wait could it mean... what do you think Ulrike?"
Ulrike looked back "Well it appears after all these years a new archangel has been created, finally"
Antonellos young face looked curious "but how can you tell if its truly the fourth archangel?"
Aderyn cut in "theres no way to prove it unless one of us goes to investigate it. and whoever goes must also guide him to use their powers right."
Ulrike sat back in his seat "so, who goes?"
Antonello stood up "ill go"
Ulrike stood up also "well it is decided, Antonello will leave tommorow midday to see if this really is the fourth archangel, may your path be straight and true"
The three men stood up, Ulrike and Aderyn walked to the door and left, Antonello stood up and took off his cloak, pure white angel wings appeared from nowhere, stretching across the room. Antonellos body started glowing white, and he slowly dissapeared, leaving angelic dust on the floor around him, but before he dissapeared he sighed and said
"ugh this is going to be trouble, hopefully this kid isnt an idiot"
Alex woke up suddenly in cold sweat, he tried to go back to sleep but his back was aching heavily

Alex woke up tired, and did what he does every school day
he first got out of bed, used the bathroom, got changed, grabbed a poptart, and looked in the mirror
his black hair was actually looking decent today, he remembered his grandma always saying "alex, you have hair as dark and beautifull as the night sky itself, just like your mother." hes always tried dying it red, but it barely showed up each time. so he decided to keep it black.
he then looked at his eyes, dark brown, he tried to figure out how they could turn white like Devlin and Eden said. it made no sense, alex shrugged it off and walked out the door
it was a bright day outside, the sky was blue and cloudless. alex got a ride to school from his aunt, when he got to school he saw devlin barely walking inside
"oh hey devlin"
"hey alex, you ready for school"
"ha am i ever ready?"
"well i mean after the fight from yesterday?"
"nah im not realy worried bout that, i mean there was only, like 5 people there" he said opening the door
"well you never know, i mean people talk y'know" said devlin walking through
"oh cmon it cant be that bad" alex turned and walked into the main hallway, suddenly everyone who was at their lockers turned and looked toward him, everyone was silent
"oh crap.." alex breathed

School has never seemed to drag on as bad as it did today, by the time it was 3rd period it felt like a whole day has passed. so far it appeared almost everyone in school heard about what happened to alex
"what the hell! how did everyone hear about me! it only happened yesterday!" alex said angrily
roger was walking besides him "i have no idea, you know how gossip travels like wildfire"
"yeah i know but this is rediculous!" alex said as a random girl yelled at him from down the hallway
"well at least more girls are talking to you now" roger said "what have they said to you?"
"nothing much, they just keep calling me "killer" or something like that" he said frustratingly "oh great and i have gym next, this day keeps getting better! c'mon we need to go to my locker"
they turned the hallway and went down to the math corridor, alex ignored the onslaught of remarks from a group of jocks
"ughh i wish i could be invisible right now" alex said, trying to open his locker
"yeah that would help right now, look" roger pointed down the hallway
a group of jr's walked down the hallway, pushing people who got in their way, they were staring straight at alex, they were a group of victors friends
"oh what the hell!!" alex said, kicking his locker
The biggest kid of the group walked in front, his name was Mike, hes been known for fighting side by side with victor, but he wasnt at the fight yesterday.
all the kids in the hallway stopped and watched what they would do.
Alex stepped forward "let me guess your here to get revenge on me because of what i did to victor"
Mike laughed "nope, im just here to deliver a message from him"
"oh great, what does he say?
"he says that when hes better hes gonna get you, twice as bad as he was gonna get you before, so watch your back Zurita" Mike waved his hand, him and his group left suddenly
everyone stared at alex
"well that wasnt as bad as i thought" roger said
"damn it!!! why is this happening, i only fought in self defense! now he wants me dead!"
the warning bell rang sudenly, roger looked at alex "well i gotta go, im gonna be late for chemistry, you better hurry too, your gonna be late for gym"
"ill see ya later, i need some time for myself"
"alright then see you" roger walked away
alex could hear kids leaving for their classes, alex layed his head on his locker. the bell rang. He was late, but he didnt care, alex just wanted to be alone right now
after a minute he tried opening his locker. it was stuck, alex got angry at it
"meh! stupid locker! open! Argh!!!" it didnt budge at all, it appeared to be stuck on something
"GREAT! this is just great!!! my god this day is getting worse and WORSE!!" alex punched his locker, he felt the metal crumple suddenly
he looked at his locker in amazement, there was a dent in his locker bigger then his fist. he stared at his fist, it looked like it wasnt hurt, there was no bruising or blood.
Alex ran away from his locker and ran towards the gym, he knew that he would have to borrow a used gym uniform for being late, but that was the last thing on his mind

The pale green tint of the used gym shirt wasnt as bad as its smell. Alex nearly threw up while putting it on, he had to drown his entire body in body spray just to make the smell more tolorable.
Alex was the last one to leave the locker room. when he came to the gym everyone was staring at him (surprisingly) ,this week was fitness testing, today was the 50 meter dash
the teacher, Mr. Newman looked towards alex. "well its about time Zurita! what took you so long?!"
Alex said back weakly "umm, nothing really sir, just... feel kinda strange today"
"hm well i know what'll make you feel better, the 50 meter dash, cmon Zurita your up first! get to the line, your racing Brent"
"great" alex said, he knew that Brent was the fastest kid in the whole school, alex didnt stand a chance against him, plus he wasnt in the mood for racing today, not after how his day's been
Alex lined up with Brent
he turned to alex "ready for this?"
"no, not really, can we just get this over with?"
"alright, ill make this quick" Brent said confidently
Mr Newman walked towards the other side of the gym
Brent spoke to alex "so i heard what you did to victor, nice job man! he finally got whats coming to him." he stuck out his hand for a high five
alex stared at his hand confusingly, he didnt know someone would thank him for what hes done, he slapped his hand "umm yeah thanks man, i me-"
"GO!!!" Mr. Newman shouted suddenly
Brent shot forward, faster then alex could ever go. Alex finally realized what was happening and started sprinting forward. "crap i did not see that coming at all!
by the time alex got one quarter of the way there Brent was already halfway done. Alex knew that he would lose, he thought of just stopping right where he stood, but alex realized he might as well try, "maybe a miracle will save me" he thought
suddenly alex felt something strange happen to him. he felt his leg muscles tighten, Alex started to run faster, and with every step he felt himself gaining incredible speed.
Many kids noticed this and they pointed towards him, along with alex running incredibly fast there was a strange wind picking up behind him, lightly blowing the students hair up in the air. Some students even clapped for him
Brent finally noticed the students applause for alex, he looked back and saw alex gaining on him fast. Brent narrowed himself to the ground making him faster. but it wasnt fast enough to escape alex
Alex felt amazing, like a new power was coarsing through his veins, similar to how he felt the other night when he fought Victor. Alex noticed there was a quarter of the track left.
He heard a sudden voice burst from the crowd, it was a familiar girls voice, when alex looked he saw Eden smiling at him, Alex smiled back. Alex rushed forward suddenly, blowing Brent out of the way, when he crossed the finish line there was tremendous applause from the student body
Mr. Newman stared at Alex "wow that was....amazing, ive never seen you perform like that before, congrats son, you've just earned yourself the new school record, 4.3 seconds!"
Brent walked over and shook Alex's hand
"wow i have to admit, even that impressed me, how'd you do that?!"
Before alex could even respond, an amazing pain shot from alex's back.
Alex fell to his knees screaming, a stiff heavy pain spread all over his back, then his body. he collapsed to the floor, he could hear peoples voices fading in and out
"someone ge.......to the nur.........rry!"
alex stared into the blurry faces, and finally, darkness
Meanwhile the clock struck noon.
above the school a white light appeared, then it was replaced by a man in a black shirt with ripped jeans, his long dark red hair flowed in the wind. he picked up his cell phone and called someone
"yeah Ulrike? This is Antonello, i've finally arrived"

When alex finally awoke it was 7th period, one period before his lunch. Alex tried to sit up but he didnt have enough strength to get up, it was like an invisible force was pining him down. he looked around, it looked like he was in some kind of nurses office.
the nurse walked in and noticed he was awake "oh my, your finally awake, we never thought you'd wake up. No, dont try getting up, just lie down some more" she said, laying him down.
"ow, what.....happened to me?"
"well it appears that you blacked out for some reason, everyone was scared for you, even... this one girl, she stayed with you until 6th period. hmm what's her name, oh well i never was good with names" she sighed
"wait, was it....Eden" he said hopefully
"oh yes that was here name! sweet girl, she didnt leave your side."
"wow i ....." alex's back ached some more "ow, so what do you thinks wrong with me?" he asked, changing the subject.
"i dont know, maybe it was because of how much sleep you've gotten. did you get a good nights sleep?"
"no not really, i mean my back was hurting"
"where on your back?" the nurse asked
"umm towards my neck."
"alright lift the back of your shirt, let me see" Alex liftted his shirt, she felt the top of his back "hmm nothing really, no bruising. thats strange, does it hurt now?"
"yeah it kinda does." alex said, trying not to make a sound
"i think you need some food, what do you want from lunch?"
Alex realized he was really hungry. "umm two cheeseburgers, 3 cheese sticks, and... 2 resses fast breaks"
the nurse laughed. "wow you have some apetite, ill be back soon, and DONT leave!"
alex sighed to himself "i wouldnt want to, even if i could". when the nurse left he thought to himself. "arghh this day is getting stranger and stranger!! why cant it just be normal for once!"
alex looked at the celing and said softly "what is happening to me?"
a boys voice anwsered from the door. "maybe i can help"
alex jumped, he turned and saw a boy about his age, with long ruby colored hair. alex laughed "heh nice hair, ive never seen you in school before, whats your name?"
the boy ignored his question "if you want to know why strange things are happening to you, follow me."
alex's heart skipped a beat, how did this kid know about all the wierd things happening to him?
"hey how did you know!" alex turned his head, the kid was gone. alex was curious to leave, but he knew that he couldnt in his condition. but his curiosity got the better of him, alex slowly got up and walked towards the door, his body shaking with every step.
"hey......wait!!" alex called after the strange boy

((short post, i have a writers block))
Alex limped out of the nurses office, he looked around for the kid with red hair. Many kids looked at alex and started talking. Alex ignored them and looked around, he saw a group of freshman following a guy, alex noticed that the huy was the one who spoke to him earlier
"hey you wait!!" he called towards him
the kid looked around "well you actually decided to follow me, good. come with me." he waved his hand towards an open door leading to the baseball fields. the kid ignored the crowd of girls and walked outside.
Alex quickly walked outside, the sky was still a dreamy blue, and there was barely any clouds. but the kid was nowhere in sight.
"hey up here" a voice called
alex looked around, the kid was standing on top of the bleachers. "get up here" he said
alex crossed a gate and walked onto the bleachers. "wow your fast" alex called to him
"yeah, we are" he said mysteriously
"what do you mean "we"" alex said, reaching the top row
the kid looked into the sky "y'know, me and you have more things in common than you know"
Alex looked at him fiercely "alright, how do you know about whats been happening to me, are you spying on me!" alex's voice raised slightly
the kid moved his hair out of his face "tell me, about your father...."
Alex got angry, he rushed towards the kid, ready to punch him "dont you.... mention my father again" he whispered
"well by the pitch of your voice i take it he wasnt there for you. am i right?"
Alex threw his right fist at the kid, without hesitation he grabbed alex's hand, a gentle breeze flowed around them suddenly "such power, such raw energy flowing through your body, you've noticed this right?"
alex was surprised the kid caught his fist, alex felt his fist going at an amazing speed.
alex sighed"......i've noticed..wierd things happening to me.....please.....tell me whats happening."
the kid released alex's fist and stood up "fine ill tell you, but you have to tell me your name first."
alex looked at him "im Alex, whats your name?"
"Antonello" he said

Alex looked at him "Antonello? thats a strange name."
Antonello looked back "it was my grandfathers, he was a great and noble warrior. he sacrificed his life to save me......" his voice trailed off
Alex didnt know what to say "oh umm, im sorry bout that. so ........what do you mean by "noble warrior?""
he laughed "he once defeated a pack of demons with only his wings..'
alex was confused "wings? demons!? umm what are we talking about? because im really really confuzzled"
antonello looked at the sky, he laughed "my grandfather, he was the greatest ArchAngel ever."
more questions ran through alex's mind "wait do you mean some kind of gang? is that why your here. to recruit me to your little "gang". well im not interested. sorry"
antonellos face grew serious "the ArchAngels are the saviors of earth, they protect humans from the evil's of hell"
alex stood up "wait ....ArchAngel...you mean like.." alex stood up and waved his arms around "an angel..y'know with wings and a halo?"
antonello nodded "but they dont have halos"
alex started chuckling "haha you have got to be kidding me! ive heard about that stuff in church! sorry but i dont beleive in fairy tales"
antonello's voice was suddenly fierce "this is no fairy tale, ancient prophecies speak of a new ArchAngel arising to power, so that he could aid his bretheren to protect the people of earth from the most fiersome demons from hell"
"sorry but i dont believe in prophecies either...." alex said
"believe it or not i was sent here to do a mission" antonello said sharply
"and that would be......."
"to find the fourth ArchAngel."
"reallllyyy! well that sounds like an important mission!" alex said sarcastically "so any idea where this "fourth" ArchAngel is?"
"yeah... im staring right at him." he said lightly
alex's thoughts rippled, "what.......me...no, it cant be me, i mean im just a regular high school kid.." alex said, he started to walk down the stairs slowly
Antonello called after him "regular huh? well i wouldnt call having your eyes turn white exactly "normal""
Alex stopped and turned around "how.... but.....you couldnt of known that." antonello suddenly disappeared, he appeared next to alex
"ive also been issued another mission, "if the kid isnt an ArchAngel, then kill him"" he said wearily
before alex could say anything he felt himself being rushed into the air, when he looked around he found that he was floating in the air, below him was a graveyard, it was located not far from the school.
he heard antonellos voice suddenly
"like the view?" he said form behind alex
alex turned around and faced antonello, antonello was holding alex in the air, but antonellos appearence changed, his black clothes were snow white, and his hair was ice blue. also two heavenly angelic wings flowed from behind his white shirt.
"what the hell....." alex said in awe
"this is your first test. hmm lets see.....we are about 400 feet in the air, i am going to drop you from this height" he said in an echoed voice
"what! drop me! but why!" alex yelled, staring at the ground
"if you are truly an ArchAngel your wings will appear and your true power will finally be revealed, and if you dont get your wings.....you die."
"no you cant do this!!! this is insane!"
"good luck" antonello said
antonello released alex from his grip, alex fell down to the earth

Antonello stared down at Alex falling down "c'mon kid, you can do this"
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH" alex screamed as he was falling "i'm gonna die, i'm gonna die!!' alex thought
"this makes no sense! how am i suppose to grow wings! its physically impossible! i'm screwed!"
the ground was getting closer and closer "hey maybe if i say something, my wings will grow!"
Alex waved his arms in the air "grow wings!!!"
nothing happened
"FLY!!!!!"
still.....nothing
"c'mon wings, grow!!" he shouted
Alex stared at the ground, slowly getting bigger
"why.........is this happening.....i just want things to turn normal again....i'm gonna die here and theres nothing i can do....."
silent tears flowed lightly from Alex's face as he was inches away from the ground
"Eden....."
Alex expected his body to hit the ground heavily, but....nothing happened.
Alex opened his eyes, he was hovering barely an inch above the ground "what.....but why!" alex said, he suddenly noticed something different about his hair, it was pure white, and his shirt had turned white also, plus his jeans and shoes had turned a light black.
"whoaaa" alex said lightly. but he still didnt get why he was floating in the air, he turned around. Alex lost his breath in an instant
two wings have sprouted from alex's back. they were shining a glorious white. he stared at the thick feathers on his wings. they were the same feathers that appeared when he fought victor
besides the physical changes, alex felt amazing! he felt a new power surging across his body.
"i......did it!!!!"
"congratulations" a voice said from behind him, it was Antonello
Alex rushed over and punched him in the gut, Antonello crouched over slightly "you b*****d!! you almost killed me!!" alex yelled
"i.....deserved that... sorry about that, i just needed to test if you really were the fourth ArchAngel."
"and what if i didnt get these wings!" alex said angrily
"i would of saved you, dont worry, we ArchAngels arent allowed to kill humans."
Alex felt his wings "so......im really an ArchAngel then?"
"yeah" Antonello said lightly, his voice was different, it was softer, less strict. it sounded like alex was talking to one of his friends
"wow......this is amazing!"
"yeah plus theres another good thing about being an ArchAngel." Antonello waved his hand in the air
a blue sword appeared from the air above alex. alex was quick to catch it. "whoa!! whats this!"
"that is the Lunar blade, forged from the greatest sword makers in heaven." antonello said
"Lunar blade huh? wait.....Lunar as in the moon?"
"exactly, when you reveal the Lunar blade before the moon, its power will suddenly increase tenfolds. Your power is also the same way."
"what do you mean?" alex asked
"ArchAngels are named after their weapons. I own the Armada Scythe, so that makes me the Armada ArchAngel."
"wait so that means......."
"yep, you're the Lunar ArchAngel"
