Author's notes:
Hola all.
Anyhoo for further clearness. My interpretation of an archangel in this fic are they are the more powerful angels that actually do battle against darkness and such. Angels are more pure and holy and protect the people and other living things.
Please don't be offended if you are very religious or take it too seriously, I'm Roman Catholic, and I'm just fooling around. I did intend this to be a bit of a comedy and maybe a little romance somewhere along the lines. OK! here we go!!
Zel paced his cell disturbed. he sat down on his cot and with a desperate sigh, ran his fingers through his violet hair. "I'm Just not good enough."
The desolate young priest had been feeling this way for sometime now. Being the grandson and great grandson to the Holiest of Priests, Rezo the Red, was quite a difficult thing to live up to. And he was failing, miserably.
"How am I going to explain to him. How can I tell him that.. I'm just not made to be a priest." Zel sighed. It would not be an easy task. The Greywords family had been powerful and influential all their lives. During a sweep of sickness most of the family had been wiped out. Gone before the great rezo could come and save them. All except for Zelgadis that is. He barely hung on when Rezo found him shaking and gasping from illness. He never fully recovered but inside his heart was strong. Even if his body wasn't.
Zel did what he always did when he was depressed. He prayed. "Dear God.. help me find the holy path you have chosen for me.. amen."
Soon zel settled down for what he hoped would be a peaceful rest.
It wasn't.
Zelgadis was instantly awake, heart pounding, as something slammed into his poor body, pressing him into the mattress. What ever it was, it was angry, cursing and ... had its breasts in his face??
Very female.
"Oh God fogive me for I have sinned.." Zel murmured as the creature scrambled to get off him.
The petite red head managed to free herself from the sheets and what seemed to be bits of plaster and curtains. "Ah sorry about that." she grinned staring down at the perplexed young man. "didn't expect to hit down so hard." she added helping him to a sitting position.
Zel blushed. "Ahm.. who, who are you?"
"Oh.. ah ha ha.. I'm Lina! Arch Angel supreme and God sent me here to help, guide, and protect you!" Lina exclaimed producing a victory V.
Zel took the time to finally look at his.. ah ..angel. She was petite but the scantly white armor with traces of white cloth, edged in gold and silver, showed more of her 'heavenly body' than Zel though god would allow. Well the God he read about anyway. But she was clearly and angel since a pair of beautiful silvery pink wings spouted from her back.
Zel blushed even further and asked.."Um do you normally wear that.."
Lina sweat dropped. "Well actually its archangel uniform and the wouldn't give me the kind the guys wear. It gets pretty cold up there too. I think heaven's full of dirty old men if you ask me !" she grumbled trying unsuccessfully to drag the cloth part of the skirt lower.
"oh." Zel said, stupefied. "i guess my prayers were answered then."
