Our Promise (Part 1)

inspired by this song since the last weeks, i decided that you guys should listen to it while reading >:D

STARTING LINE - YOKO HIKASA

it kinda goes well :3 it kinda suits this partt -w-

Kirito and Hana spoke the first line until ' "when we met our death" '

Everything below that was spoken by Goddess

---------------------------------------------------------------

"When we were kids, when we were still at heaven, when we were still together...

Love was the reason we were separated...

When we grew up, when we were at different places, we managed to stay together...

Love was the reason we were united...

When the outcome of our choice was tragic, when we tried to deny it, it deteriorated...

When our comrades left us, when our friends abandoned us...

...........When we met our death,..........."

"Goddess, My Daughter," "Yes, Father?" "Outside this room, is your new friend, take care of him." "Yes, I will, but can we do it together?" "No, My Daughter. Lucifer...he....poisoned me, took away almost every part of me. He has tricked me, and now, I leave everything to you. Worry not, Lucifer is now gone." "Yes, Father, goodbye."

Father smiled as he slept again. I did not cry because I know Father wants me to smile too even now that He is almost dying. I went out of the room and forgot the boy so I bumped into him, we both fell down.

"I'm sorry." I dusted off and apologized.

"No, it was my fault." He also did the same.

"Let's just say we're both at fault since we both got hurt." I stood and helped him up.

"Ah. Yeah, sure," His hair got messy so I patted his head, "mf..."

"So you are...?" I asked in the middle fixing his hair.

"Satan." There it's done!

"Satan, huh? I was never given a real name. Father just calls me Goddess because I have the power....well....let's just say I can do anything like Father. I'm exactly like Father you could say..."

"Just that, you're a girl." We giggled and laughed together.

Around noon, I taught him the basics of everything. First was knowledge. He actually aced everything. I told him that he was very special and that he matches up to my level. Day by day, night by night, we contininued schooling, to the point that he was stronger and smarter than any of the older angels. I was proud of Satan. He was like the second to me.

Satan and I grew up together, we learned more about each other. We both like playing in the clouds. We both like eating ice cream. We both liked humans. We both admired humans. We became the best friends ever, until it developed into something other than a 'friend' thing. I consulted with the other female angels, they said it was love; but everyone knows relationships including love as in LOVE is not allowed.! But still.....!! There, I wished to become human instead...

I kept my cool and acted normal with Satan. Wishing to be human is also forbidden...there are so many things I am not able to do  in heaven. Humans below, say that heaven was the greateast place ever to be in, well they're wrong. If they only knew, how much a god, a goddess, or an angel has to limit and keep track of...If they only knew how much trouble it is to suppress your feelings...

And then at that time.........

A few years later, another one rebelled. A few days later, another one also rebelled. One by one, heaven's angels started decreasing until half of it went to the new world, the world created by my Father; Hell. The fallen angels resided there where they scrambled like pigs. It wasn't an orderly place which was fitting for them. The so-called demons and devils grew in population as we did the same. They started to piece their minds together as one.

Hell started to be a little bit organized...more organized when the last most decent one fell among them.......

"How could you?! How could you think of something like that?! How can you not think of what the others would feel?! How could you not think of what I'll feel?! HOW CAN YOU LET ME BE ALONE HERE?! HOW CAN YOU LEAVE ME JUST LIKE THAT?!"

"Maybe I wasn't just carried along with the current...maybe it was just a coincidence...maybe it was on purpose...that I.........____ ___"

I didn't hear what you said. You were sent down at an amazing speed. There was no time for you to complete what was supposed to be our last conversation, what was supposed to be your last sentence. I thought everything just ended there, then again I was mistaken.

We both wished for a world without those kinds of laws...but if we were to be found out, we'd go down to Earth. So we kept it in secret. You knew I wanted to be with you. I knew you wanted to be with me. Difference is....we sought different worlds, more different you could imagine. We had the same intentions, but we differ in the structure. But I didn't care anymore so long as you were with me. But the fact that you wanted to forgive the others who took countless lives, it crossed the line. Time passed by and by, you grew wicked and evil. Betrayal was more like it.

Though I've read through your files and your reasons, I still don't know what is right or what is wrong. To become one of those was the last decision they gave. I am nothing but a weak goddess. Father told me that love prevails all, and so I did as He said.

Everyone might think my choice was wrong.

When the whole world was against me.

When you broke our promise.

When we were stripped of our own rights.

When we were exiled from our home.

I chose to love you until the end.
