497 It\'s all grey- Part 1
.
Madeline stared at Paschar who had appeared at the place, that looked less of a town and more of a village. She wondered what time of the past she had entered and she heard him ask the woman,
"I thought we were going to meet after ten days. What are you doing here, Marina?"
The woman was a few years older than Madeline\'s age. Her eyes lowered down at Paschar\'s question, and she said, "I wanted to see you. I was looking for you."
"I know," answered Paschar. His long silver hair was tied, he had pushed it to one side of his shoulder, and his grey eyes looked at the woman. "It is why I am here. Was there something you needed from me?" Unlike the woman, who had smiled at him, Paschar held a passive expression on his face.
Marina stared at Paschar, her brown eyes staring into his grey ones. "I wanted to let you know that there have been demon sightings in this place."
"Where are they?" asked Paschar, his eyebrows furrowing in thought. He turned behind him, looking at the people who walked on the streets.
"There\'s some suspicious things taking place next to my house," informed Marina. "When do you want to check the place?" she asked, pulling the hood over her head so that she could cover it.
"Now," answered Paschar, and they left the place.
Madeline didn\'t know what she was doing here or why she was here. The woman named Marina, she had hair that resembled hers, blonde and golden locks of hair. Was this her...mother? It was hard to tell because she had never asked who the woman was, who had been involved with Paschar.
Following the two of them, Madeline tried to touch the people who were nothing less to air that blew past her, who didn\'t know she was there.
Madeline\'s feet caught up with the duo who walked away from the village. They were walking next to the forest, and Madeline heard the loud growl of thunder from the sky. If she hadn\'t confirmed it earlier, the weather was enough to tell that she had travelled to the past.
If the person who was walking in front of her was really the woman who had conceived her for the very first time, then that meant this was the time when Paschar had stepped into the living world, and it looked like he was still serving Heaven.
The Paschar she knew in the present and the Paschar in front of her appeared to be two different people. The angel here had a passive look, and it reminded the angel Michael\'s facial expression.
"My neighbours haven\'t stepped out of their houses for more than two days, and it has me worried. I knocked on the door, but there has been no response," explained Marina. "It is because Mrs. Sawyer always shows up in front of my door to borrow sugar. Last night I heard some noise. There has been no light coming from the inside of the house."
The woman shook her head. "I think the magistrate is involved in it. You told me to inform you if I see anything odd because you hunt demons." Paschar passed a glance at the woman from the corner of his eyes before looking ahead of him. It seemed like Marina didn\'t know about Paschar being an angel. Of course, letting a human know about demons or angels was not accepted.
Reaching the isolated houses that were away from each other compared to the present time from where Madeline came, where the houses were built closer. Marina stopped walking near one of the houses, while Paschar walked towards the house\'s door, and he knocked on it.
"Is anybody home?" asked Paschar. His knocks were loud and clear. Hearing no response, he kicked the door open and stepped inside.
Madeline who couldn\'t hold in her curiosity, she followed Paschar, and she brought her hand forward, "Light." A luminous ball of fire appeared above the palm of her hand, and she let the fire to guide her inside the small cramped house.
Though she didn\'t belong to this time period, she could still smell the stench coming from the house, and she didn\'t have to see to know that it was coming from dead bodies.
Paschar didn\'t need light. As he was born as an angel, he had powers that allowed him to look past the objects and find the human\'s dead bodies, who were stacked in the cupboards.
"Did you find them?" came Marina\'s voice from behind. Paschar turned around and stepped out of the house, not letting her to see or smell what was inside the house. The woman gave him a questioning look. "What happened?"
"The people in there are dead," answered Paschar, "And the place has a thick smell of demon in there. As if the demon was there a few minutes ago, but left the place."
Marina frowned, "What are we going to do? This is the second death taking place this month. At this rate, the demons will kill everyone here."
Paschar suggested, "Go to your parent\'s place. Or any relative who will take you in until the matters in here settles down."
The woman stared at the angel before saying, "I don\'t have anyone," and she looked away. "I live by myself because I have no one. Do you think I could live with you until then?" she looked back at him.
Madeline didn\'t get to hear what Paschar\'s answer was to the woman\'s question as the scene started to dissolve in front of her and she was taken to a time further than where she had been, as if someone had sped the time before putting a pause. Suddenly she stood in a house, and she heard Marina\'s voice.
"What do you think we should do outside the house? I have asked John to place the wiring mesh around the house so that no animals or people come in," she said to Paschar who was next to her. The atmosphere between them seemed to have changed as Paschar looked more relaxed.
