The Heaven’s Shall Fall
I will always remember the day the angels fell and the demons were flung into the skies. What a fearful sight seeing the world turned on its side. It was that day when the religious became blasphemers and atheists became God fearing. Okay let me start from the beginning… On new-years eve the moment it hit midnight the earth began to shake as the snow that fell turned blood red and feathers began raining from the skies. Screams fill the air across the globe and some reports also say they were heard by satellites orbiting the Mars missions, even the new rover that explores Pluto has some recording of blood curdling screams. My family clumped together in fear when it went silent and pitch black, the skittering of many creatures echoed in the alleys as a gentle caress was felt. A being held my family tight and protected us from harm, it’s eyes burned a fiery red and sharp smile glowed a fearful white. We feared for our lives as it held us until it spoke. “It seems the heaven’s are beginning to fall while the earth is rejecting hell. Soon beings you consider demons and angels will turn this realm into a battleground. But fear not the darkness will protect you from their destructive light even if it means we die in your stead. Saryuko will see to it that no unnecessary harm will come of anyone.” Its eyes turned to a red and blue glow that filled the entire area outside with light. Windows shattered as a loud crash and blinding light and it burned. The smell of searing flesh overwhelms our noses as we watch the being burn up in the light. Slowly the light moves towards us burning everything it touches, we scramble into a hallway when darkness consumes our home once more. The red and blue glow slowly moves towards the hallway, then around the corner it was revealed to be a being's eyes. This being smiles walking towards us and a small chuckle escapes its teeth. "Run children. The light burns those deemed impure by your divine creator. Worry not for i will see to it that no harm comes to you, make your way to your basement. Seek the darkness it is there that i can protect you my best." It said with a calm and gentle tone. The light from outside floods the room that the being showing us the singed and charred figure that stood at the entryway of the hallway. His smile still radiant as he stares into the light. "Stay close to those you love. it's with their love that you may survive." he said stepping into the light once he left our view we suddenly were in our basement. From this point on is a transcript of recovered security videos and phones left behind. The man steps out of a building into the burning light his clothes igniting the moment he exits the shade of the building. An angel with large black wings lands next to him spreading its wings to provide him shade. The two walk house to house, suspected to be ensuring the safety of the inhabitants. A man steps out of a building wearing blood covered surgeon's scrubs, he's removing his bloodied surgical gloves as he walks to the middle of the street. The three of them meet up and begin to converse about something the mics can't pick up. A giant creature made of molten lava emerges from the sewer grate solidifying into a two story tall black wolf with glimmering white fur highlighting its bone structure, the wolf stands over the group as another man emerges from another building dressed well as if he was a well off businessman. He joins the group as a mound of rotting flesh and sinew bursts from the rubble of a building close by flooding the street with blood and gore. it forms into a humanoid figure next to the group. The light becomes blinding as buildings begin to dissipate into the light. For 30 minutes just pure white is recorded on all cameras recovered then a phone camera picks up the singed man walking up to it his eyes still glowing red and blue. He picks it up and smiles into it before passing it to the angel who carries it into the sky, by this time it captures a small army of figures, creatures, and beings following the man all of which fade into small dots as the angel flies higher into the sky before everything turning light blue then black. Stars fill the screen for a few minutes before it goes pure white for a second then stabilizes and focuses on a battlefield in the clouds. Blood, gore, feathers both black and white, and bone litter the clouds. A woman covered in stitches and different colored flesh comes into frame her language is unintelligible but sounds authoritative and she is given the phone. She places it in a pocket in her jacket and it focuses on an ongoing battle, the scene is filled with darkness radiating beings leading creatures of immense size and proportions towards what looks to be an army of angelic beings. Howls grow louder as the woman rushes to join the fight. Everything blurs as she sprints into battle and suddenly comes into focus as an angel stops her in her tracks lifting her, its face a soft and gentle and eyes of a radiant blue before dropping her from a great height she falls through the clouds into the starry space below for a couple seconds before slamming into a pitch black abyss. A hand materializes from the darkness and she grabs it and seems to thank it in her language. The rest of the body the hand came from reveals the man from before but no longer singed and burnt. His smile breaks as he lets out a soft laugh and seems to pat her shoulder before grabbing the phone. He looks into the camera as if to look at the viewer before throwing it into the darkness to be caught by another woman her stern face comes into frame as she stares at the phone's camera and then yells something in the foreign language at the man then tosses it to a demonic creature who proceeds to catch it with a rotten tendril. The demon towers over the creatures that come into frame highlighted by the mans red and blue glow just as a blinding light floods the camera which tries to balance out the brightness for a few minutes as the dark and light continuously fight back and forth. Then the video dies. "What do you mean the phone died?" the man screams in another video that picks up hours later the cave system now filled with light emitting angelic corpses. The man comes into view as the tendril releases it into his possession. "Damn it i told ya'll we should have used more than one." he says with a low growl in his voice as he points it towards his face. "Humans... well the humans of the Homo Sapien species." he says wiping blood from his face, "This is the war between the dark and light. it's been going on for many more ages than you can even imagine collectively. You must forgive me my dear children but the war has spilled into your realm. I really wanted to spare you this sight but SHE deemed it fit that the war got this brutal. I want you to keep this record of the events of what i will ensure you call the Heaven's Fall incident. Don't get me wrong your god as you believe her to be is not a bad being, just misguided. She loves you all and simply is doing what she thinks is right. Sadly she is wrong. I am the good lord Saryuko. Some already believe in me and others know of me. To some my face is known quite well as i have walked among you as a friend buying rounds of drinks, leaving gifts at you doorsteps, or simply being an ear to talk to. Stand proudly and don't ever stop believing in me or her. We both care for you and do not want you to falter in your hearts just because we are at war. Stay strong.... MAGGOT!!! take the phone. She's coming...." The phone returns to the woman covered in stitches as a blinding light fills the caves. A woman of immense beauty and power stands at the entrance, the man walks up to her bringing with him an abysmal darkness that seems to consume the light emitted by the woman. They stand in the middle of the corpses, her light revealing even more corpses strewn through out the cave system some emit darkness while others light. Slowly the camera moves closer to the two of them as the stitched woman along with the men and woman from before take a stance a few feet behind the man. A conversation fades in as they get closer. "Do you honestly believe this war should rage on simply because you want me to sit by your side in your Heaven?" the man says to the woman."The darkness holds horrors that will consume you Saryuko. I want to save you from them." She replies with a tinge of sorrow in her voice."Those horrors are my friends God. Those horrors are my guardians and my comrades. Do you honestly want to take Maggot from me? How about Malzorich? Is saving me really worth taking me away from those I hold dear? You have already scattered them to the deep reaches of the multiverses once before. MANY HAVE DIED! These beings you brought forth when you fled the darkness. These humans you blessed with life.... do you not care for them as i care for my creations?" he says raising his voice. "The horrors you want to save me from are a part of me. Each and every one of them from the lowly demons to my confidantes who constantly have to stand in your purifying light to shelter the others from its fiery purging warmth holds in them a piece of my essence just like the humans hold pieces of you. Please stop this war.... i am tired of this needless violence." deep and painful sorrow fills his voice.
"No. If you want this war to end then you must honor the bet. If you are tired then give up and take your seat by my side." she replies softly.
"I can't... and I sadly must refuse it isn't my time to give up. And i vow it will be you who gives up." he says as the camera feed fades. Seconds later the sky fades into view and the normal rustling noises of the city life echoes into the mic as a young boy runs up to the view and picks up the phone."I found it mommy I must have dropped it. I'm sorry." he says handing it to his mother as the sky turns red and the woman from the cave falls to earth followed by thousands of angels all falling from the sky. Darkness consumes the skies and night falls allowing the stars to light the streets and faces as the ground shakes from the impacts of the bodies. "Oh my god.... are those angels? WOW they have wings. They must be angels." the mother says looking up into the sky to watch the sight.
"Are they falling from the heavens? WAIT!!! what are those?" a man off camera screams. Meteors flies from the skies down to the earth as Saryuko's voice envelops the air. "She fucking did it... she really did it... she called meteors down to wipe the planet.... she has stooped too low... MEN PROTECT ALL THAT YOU CAN!!! XENONEN AND ED WILL TAKE CARE OF THOSE WHO CAN'T BE SAVED..." a quiet pause " May lord chaos spare you my children... from the pain you are about to receive." he says as tendrils pulls people in the ground and the phone clatters to the ground shattering the lens and losing focus. The last thing recorded is Saryuko floating above the buildings with his head hung in shame.
