Michael, if you had a chance to go back and do things differently, would you take it? And if so, what would you change?
“That is a very complicated question, my friend.”
Michael walks around his desk to gaze out his window. It currently shows the Garden. He smiles at the sight of his siblings, glowing with renewed grace. The healers are working ahead of schedule.
“I was incapable of doing things differently back then. It was part of me–that drive to begin the Apocalypse and end the world. I had to change on a fundamental level before I understood the error of my ways. And I did change, with my Father’s mercy and love.
“But in a hypothetical situation, if I were to go back and replace my former-self, there are many things I would change. Heaven would change. We would stop pooling all our efforts toward destruction and focus on healing.
“It would be a massive undertaking. The Apocalypse did not happen overnight. It was planned for generations–nearly 2000 years of manipulating bloodlines and moving players into place.”
Michael shakes his head. So much time wasted. So many lives lost, both human and angel. He counts them all as his own personal failures.
“We would love humanity again. Protect and cherish them, guide them when they were lost and celebrate their achievements. I would do what I am doing now, and what my Father did for me. I would remind my siblings what it means to be angels.”
