Uriel's Absolution

side with the spear. I will distract his concubines.” Damon nodded.

  Uriel and Damon cautiously approached the door. Damon could feel his heart pounding through his ears. The rosary helped ease his anxiety. The door blew wide open by itself as they walked closer to it. Inside the famous rock star sat on a black leather couch with his concubines. He was wearing a studded leather jacket with no shirt and tight black jeans. His blue eyes and golden blonde locks made him so popular with the young teenage girls.

  “Hello Uriel, I was expecting you.” Tim said with a wicked smile.

  One of the concubines snarled at Damon and Uriel. They were already in their true form. They were extremely beautiful with long black hair and green eyes. They both wore the same provocative outfit. Which consisted of a black leather bras and black leather panties. The one on Tim’s left cracked her long black whip.

  “Easy there, Patricia my sweet pet.” Tim stroked her gently.

  “Let’s take him down now. It is only him and the boy. They are weak and no match for you my lord.” The concubine to his left said.

  Uriel started forming another fireball. The concubines were stronger than the two demons they faced in the hall. They lunged for Uriel. He dodged them and pushed Damon back into a corner to keep him safe. Uriel had managed to throw the fireball at one of the concubines reducing her to a pile of ash. The other used her whip and caught him by the hands. She started pulled him forward. With his wrist tied and unable to form a fireball. Uriel had to think of another way to kill the servant. He released his black wings and broke free of the whip. The concubine struggled with him. They came to a halt after Uriel pushed her head first through the wall. He threw a fireball after her for good measure.

  Back in the dressing room. Tim Timberlake sat on his couch. He studied Damon and sense he posed no real threat. Damon all sudden remembered what he was supposed to do charged at Tim with the spear of destiny. Tim saw the spear and hissed. He converted to his demon form. He went from an attractive rock star to a large hideous demon. His red skin and bulky build stopped Damon in his tracks. His horns curved upward like a ram’s horns. Tim looked at him with his large black eyes. He smiled revealing sharp teeth.

  “Come at me boy if you are brave enough.” Damon stood there frozen. The abomination laughed. The air seethe with intense energy. “Drop the spear boy. Or I shall come over there and rip you limb from limb. I will see to it you make a fine meal for my dogs.”

  Uriel came back after incapacitating the last concubine. He flew at full speed toward Tim. Tim grabbed the angel by his black wings so he couldn’t fly away. Uriel threw fire ball after fireball at the abomination. It didn’t affect it at all. It let out a loud, and sinister laugh.

  “Oh Uriel you are so weak.” It absorb the fireballs that Uriel kept throwing at it. “You will never survive the apocalypse to come.”

  “There will be none. Damon throw the spear into him.” Uriel replied. Damon stood frozen in the place. The abomination laughed.

  “That was the best you could get was a boy and the spear of destiny? You will never destroy me.” The demon threw Uriel against the wall. The angel lay on the ground defeated. Suddenly the abomination felt some hard hit his side. He turned around to see Damon had worked up the courage to stab him with the spear.

  “Curse you peasant!” The abomination yelled. It lunged for Damon but Uriel saved him. The demon started to turn black. He receded into a black puddle. Which turned into a thousand little spiders that scurried away.

  On the other side of the room. Damon was holding Uriel. His protector had taken a blow to his side. Black scratch marks could be seen. Blood oozed out of the wound. Damon had taken off his sweater and put it on Uriel.

  “I am sorry. I didn’t kill him fast enough.” Uriel looked at him with his blue eyes. He had aged significantly. He no longer had brown hair but grey hair. Wrinkles now replaced his once smooth face.

  “It is alright son, you did well.” Damon cried.

  “It is not alright you are going to die. I don’t know how to help you.” Uriel laughed.

  “I will die a fighter just like how I came into this world. Fighting to survive.” Damon let the tears fall. He was extremely sadden this angel sacrificed its life for him.

  A flood of light almost blinded Damon. Three figures appeared within the bright light. They had white wings and were beautiful. They were God’s angels. They came up to Uriel. Damon let them pass. They helped him up. Uriel looked so old and frail.

  “Wait, wait!” Uriel said to the angels. “I must do one last thing. Take me to the boy.” The angels brought him to Damon.

  “As I promised. I will eradicate that vile illness you have.” Uriel touched Damon’s forehead. He felt a warmth go through his body. All a sudden he could breathe better.

  “Thank you Uriel. I will always remember you.” Uriel smiled. The three angels jumped and pulled Uriel’s soul out of his aged body. They took his soul up to the heaven with them. Damon watched as the four soared up to the sky. He held the rosary, that Uriel given him earlier. This was all he had to remember him by.
