Never stand in-between an Angel and his Mate...
IMMORTAL BELOVED
A Short
Story by L.C. Bellami
~Part 1~
~The Gift~
He hadn’t had any time off in over a thousand years, and now just like that…there it was…vacation time! He would have the span of 89 years to live like a human. He couldn’t believe it, and to live in such an age would be strange indeed. He would get to create a body and start off at 19 years of age physically, though his legal status amongst the humans would be different. His identification cards and documents would all read that he was 23 years old. He would still have most of the basics… and certain perks, but he would also loose a lot living in a human vessel as well. Still…he would never get sick naturally, his body would be considered beautiful and would be more than strong. He was also allowed to take a mate. Best of all though, was that he was coming several months before the best time of the human’s year as far as he was concerned; which was Christmas, and things always seemed better on the earth at Christmas. Not that he got the chance to visit all that often anymore, outside of doing work. The Power of the Christmas Spirit was still alive and active, and he might actually run into the spirit of St. Nickolas himself sometime, or Maybe The Herald of Christmas present; perhaps he might just run into the wintry elemental he liked so much, Emrin The Jack Frost. For a moment he let himself remember the first Christmas that had ever been. He remembered looking down at The Logos made manifest in physical human form upon the earth. How strange that something so small, so tiny and… helpless; could have housed The Light of all Lights. He recalled what it had been like to look down upon the human form of The Logos, and see The Light that was concealed inside of a babe, and how it felt to hover over the earth under the light of the great star and sing with all the multitudes of the choirs. It had been quite a celebration that was only to be outdone when the same small child grew up and fulfilled his mission and then finally rose and ascended back, to stand amongst them once again. Many of his siblings were currently preparing for a feast that no other feast would ever rival, one that promised to… out do the other two feasts. That feast would be in celebration for the new world to come and The Divine Wedding. He was to be given contact information for a community of his siblings that were also on vacation or assignment, just in case of emergency or loneliness; though he really looked forward to attending temple services with them. He thought about what it would be like to have a mate once again. His last few mates had been lovely, and occasionally he still saw them from time to time. It would also be fun to get the chance to save a human soul from the foe. Things were bound to be different however, given the nature of human reality at present time. Time…it was so strange to have to think about time now. He was so used to not having to exist in linear time. He would still have all of his knowledge and memory, and basic Meta-abilities so these things would definitely help him. He would also be registered as a teacher in the human world, as there were only certain jobs they were allowed to take. They could teach, enter private security, become doctors even. They were forbidden to work certain other jobs though. He could not enter the military, or certain branches of the law. He could for example be a lawyer or a judge but never a prosecutor or sit on a jury. He could have chosen to be a farmer or something, but he had almost always alternated between a healer and a teacher and there was no reason to break with tradition now. Among his own kind he was a basic. He had never regretted not having been formed to fit a higher rank. Most of his kind were basic. His job was just as important as everyone else’s. He delivered messages, sometimes he guarded people, sometimes he fought in the army, sometimes he healed; though more often than not, he worked as a scribe in hall of records which made him particularly qualified to be a teacher in the human world.
His mind wondered back to taking a mate and he found himself
excited. Humans would be shocked if they only knew the truth. When one of his
kind trans-substantiated or incarnated, they had to form bodies that were male
the vast majority of the time, and they had to wire them to be attracted to
members of the same sex. Ever since the incident with the Halflings they were
no longer allowed to breed children on the earth. To do so would bring horrific
consequences no one wanted to conceive of; expulsion being the worst. It would
have been funny if it wasn’t so tragically sad… that so many humans hated The
Violets as his kind called Homosexual and Bisexual people, on account of their
auras appearing most of the time, to look like Violet flames. If humans only
understood the valuable contributions The Violets could and did make to
Humanity… they would become utterly ashamed of how they treated them. That is
why several of siblings were involved in politics behind the scenes trying to
change things. He knew it wouldn’t always be easy, but he hoped it would all be
worth it.
He was finally at his destination. His Brother Keeper would
meet him there. In the middle of forest…Yellowstone
to be exact in this case, he would create a body for himself and then his
keeper would take him and his things to a prepared location. He understood that
he would be living in Seattle
in the beginning which suited him fine. He liked what he heard about the music
scene there, and it rained a lot which would be good. He would also be the
youngest professor at the university he was going to teach at. He would be
allowed if he so wished to take as many lovers as he chose until he found a
kindred, but he knew he would probably just wait for a kindred. He concentrated
as he was coming down. When his feet finally touched the earth, a small
whirlwind that carried leaves in a circle flew up before settling back down.
“Oh good you’re here. I thought I might have to call a
seeker” Said a very handsome gentleman as he stepped out from behind a tree.
The man was tall and anyone could tell he was well built. He was beautiful with
great soulful eyes, a kind angular face, flawless skin, and Dark hair. “My name
is Nigellus Routh Jorden but people just call me Nial given it is an old
nickname for Nigellus; My true name is Nialiel. I will be your case worker and
guide while you are in my jurisdiction”.
(I see Nial as looking like Brandon Routh)
“Hello Brother Nial, how are you”? “I
am very well thank you, blessed as always. What is your name…I need to know so
we can come up with an earth name for you”? “Sereniel…Sir”! “And what is your
rank”? “I am a Lay Angel”. “What are your usual duties Sereniel”? “Well I have
done most everything, but I usually work as a scribe in The Hall of Akasha.
When I have been here before I worked as either a farmer, a healer, or a
teacher. I excel at teaching the most I think”. “Well good…good. We have you
set up to teach at a university in Seattle
I understand, and your apartment is near me. It is a loft warehouse so you
don’t have to worry about noise or neighbors so close that they will… pry into
your business. It is a lovely place and it was furnished according to your
personal tastes as you will see, thanks to information provided during your
interview and preparation class. The whole building is yours and you can make
any changes you want later. For now though only a small part of the building
has been made into a livable dwelling”. “Oh that sounds terrific, I can’t wait
to get started”. “How long has it been since your last time of …relaxation”?
“Over a thousand years sir, as humans count them”. “Wow...well past time then”
Nial said.
Nial continued… “Alright, well first we have to do something
about your name…um let’s see. It would make my life easier if we could stick to
something celestial in nature for your surname. Is that alright with you”? “Sure…how
about Angelis”? “Fine, fine…now for a first name….um. in the modern human world
Sereniel would be considered a little feminine, so let’s alter it….how about….
Soren”? “Oh… I like it...” he stopped and thought about it and then began to
laugh. “What is so funny”? “Soren Angelis… Soren angel…the angel that soars.
You have to admit… it is a funny private joke”. This caused the other man to
laugh loudly… “Oh that is funny…good, you have a sense of humor. Believe me you
will need it. Being down here is not like what it used to be. Life is a lot
more complicated down here these days”. “I have heard…All any of us can do is
our best to serve”. “You are right, and I am sure you will be fine. So now that
we have a name…how do you want to look? We can make a body any way you like”!
“Well seeing as I am always around so many fair people, I find looks like yours
to be very nice…dark hair and how about golden eyes like topaz and amber. Can I
have my hair longer than yours though; I have always like longer hair, and my
body needs to be well formed like yours to get around easier”. “Fine, fine…well
let’s get started…do you have the necklace”? “Yes” Soren said and handed his
necklace over to Nial.
(The Celestone)
“Now remember you mustn’t loose this and the less you
take it off the better for you. Start visualizing how you want the body to
look. Remember your real physical age will start out at around nineteen years
old but the world will think you are 23. Now start visualizing and forming the
body from the earth, I have all the water we need over there and it has been
infused with the blessed water and both the things you need and the other
things you requested. I will work on your documents while you work on the
vessel and then I will help you once it is formed”. “Alright” Soren said and
began to imagine in his thoughts how he wanted to look. The soil which had been
gathered from the banks of a sacred river was waiting for him in a large mound
just a few yards away. He took off the scepter at his waist and began to
channel his energies through it. Nial was busy getting the documents ready,
except for the pictures.
Soren fashioned a man out of soil and clay in a matter of
minutes. “Nial…do you think he looks like my essential nature”? “Nial stopped
what he was doing and looked. He walked around the sculpture standing there. He
looked in admiration at the beauty of the work. Then he looked down and cracked
a smile. “Wow you certainly… endowed him well, just like I did” he said with a
naughty grin. “Good….yes I think that will do quite nicely…he does remind me of
the feel of your presence. Alright… now I will add the water and you unleash
the fire of solari and bake him after he has been in the water. Then we will
add more water and then we will call the winds from the four corners to finish
him off. Then you can use the stone and paint him…and lastly, you can enter him
and I will breathe the nefesh into you”.
“Right” Soren said
and he used his scepter and levitated the sculpture. Nial waved his hand and
two huge tanks of water appeared. He took out his own Scepter and made a motion
and the water from the first tank gathered itself and then levitated out of the
tank and moved to the statue, completely encompassing it when it was close
enough to touch it. Nial made another motion and the excess water fell to the
earth. Soren closed his eyes and summoned the heavenly fire of the sun and in
the blink of an eye; it baked the statue and was gone from his sight and his
thoughts. Nial raised the water from the second tank and encapsulated the
sculpture once again, and once again let the excess water fall to the ground. “The
second gathering of water has the human D.N.A. codes all earth bound angels
share” Nial said. Soren nodded understanding, then used his scepter and did all
the rest of the work on the vessel from internal organs to wiring the brain.
Nail used his scepter and took care of the bone structure and the musculature.
Then before the final outside work began they summoned the
sacred winds. The winds came and blew around them. For a few moments it must
have seemed to all the animals like a hurricane had just hit. Then the vessel
was cooled down and solidified. “Alright, I will take care of the skin and you
use the stone to paint it” Nial instructed. Soren nodded and took the stone out
of the necklace and put it in the holder on his scepter. While Nial formed the
skin, Soren painted his new body. The color of the skin was a mix of pale cream
with a tint of golden bronze and a shade of peach. Then the hair was painted
the darkest shade of brown with highlights of gold, red, and copper to bring
the brown to life and give it warmth. Then he painted the eyes in several
layers. First black, then brown, then red, then copper, then amber, and then
finally Gold with microscopic flecks of emerald green. They were beautiful but
still appeared lifeless to Soren however, who seemed to get a little
frustrated. Nial having finished his work explained to Soren that the light of
life wouldn’t shine in them till he entered the vessel. “Of course….how silly
of me…I guess I am just too nervous and excited” he said and laughed at
himself. Soren lowered the now well made body to the ground. It was a true
masterpiece and Soren said a quiet prayer thanking the Creator for the
inspiration. He made a motion, and the body laid itself on its back on the
ground and then he took the stone and put it back in his necklace and then put
the necklace on the vessel. He handed his tools and weapons to Nial who put
them in a bag to give back to him later. “Alright, you get in and then I will
breathe you, and if the marks appear on your back everything will be good. The
other marks will appear when they are needed or if you draw them on
yourself…understand”? Soren nodded that he did. “Oh also… a few last notes. I
didn’t stock your closet. There is a credit card to tide you over till you
start getting paid in two months time. Also there are certain rules…the
handbook with the rules is in this bag with your other angelic implements. Keep
them in the walk in safe in your closet at home. No flying except at night unless
it is a dire emergency and always make yourself invisible when you do fly got
it…things are very different down here these days”! Soren again nodded that he
understood and then he closed his eyes and willed his being into the empty
vessel. Once inside, it was a strange sensation. Then it was as if he went to
sleep and began to dream, the way he understood the concept at least from human
descriptions; and vague memories from his previous vacations.
Nial approached the
vessel and opened the mouth. He looked up to the sky and said a prayer and
breathed in the light and life around him from the divine presence. He bent
over and kissed Soren and breathed Life into him. The Body began to rise into
the air a few inches and then it began to glow, illuminated with angelic light
and the Nefesh. Finally the process seemed to be over and he lowed back down. Nial
placed his hand over Soren’s heart and then with another naughty grin bent and
kissed him again. He kissed him passionately the way humans do in the throws of
passion. Soren opened his eyes and began to kiss back. Nial finally broke the
kiss so that Soren could breath. “Sorry but you made yourself too damn
beautiful and I couldn’t resist trying out our work” Nial said and laughed.
“Wow that was nice…thanks”. “Anytime” Nial said wickedly. “Well shall we get
going? It will take a lot of energy to walk through a temporal door right now,
but I want to get there quickly and quietly inside the apartment”? “Oh yes…what
about all this mess”? “Oh that’s no problem” Nial said and waved his hand and
the mud, tanks, and other remnants of their work seemed to disappear into thin
air. “I must say, the things you had me add to the water were creative,
ingenious, and a little wicked…it is sort of cheating you know, to make yourself
attractive in so many ways”. “Hey…I haven’t been down here in so long I wanted
to make things as easy as possible” Soren answered with a smirk. Then he
continued… “did the marks appear on my back”? Nial walked around behind the
naked man and saw that the marks looked very nice. “Oh yes, they came out
delightful…very well done…pick up the bag and get ready. The first thing you
will need to do once we arrive is shower and then you can get dressed and we
will take care of most of the other important details tomorrow. You have two
months of having total fun and then you start work”. “Right…well let’s go”
Soren said and picked up the large bag and flung it over his shoulder. Where
the tanks had been before disappearing, Nial pointed his scepter and drew a door
way made of blue light with symbols all around it. Nial went to the door and
knocked three times and the door opened, ripping a pathway through the fabric
of time and space. Nial and Soren walked in, then Nial made another motion and
the door shut behind them. They appeared to be in a hallway, but after only a
few short steps they came out in a large room and Nial waved his scepter and
the door was closed and gone. “Oh …this is so nice” Soren said, “This can’t all
be for me”. “Yes it is. The orders want you to know how happy the High King is
with your service. He personally ordered this to be done well. I am glad you
like it. I personally oversaw the set up”. “Thank you so much Nial”! “You are
more than welcome”. “You can look at it later and go exploring but for now take
a shower, put on some night cloths, eat some of the food we stocked, stay in
tonight and go to bed early. Tomorrow will be a long day of shopping and
getting ready. I did manage to get a set of night cloths, some underwear, and
three outfits. That is all I had time to do”. “I am sure it will be fine thank
you…could you show me how the shower works really quick”? “Oh yes… drop the bag
and follow me” Nial said and led the way. He took him to a bed room in the back
of the loft and then to then to the shower.
“Do you want me to stay and help you rinse off” Nail said
with what Soren was figuring out was his naughty smirk. “That would be nice”
Soren said blushing. “Excellent” Nial said and made a motion, and his cloths
and fell to the floor; his shoes were behind him. Nial got in the shower and
turned the water on. He held out his hand to Soren who stepped in and then Nial
shut the door. All the sensations were wonderful and overwhelming. The feeling
of warm water running down the skin of his new body was so wonderful he wanted
to cry out the pleasure of it. Nial began to rub Sorens new body…his new
muscles. Soren was lost in the feelings of pleasure. A soft moan escaped his
lips and Nial smiled, “That’s what I like to hear”. “I had forgotten how
overwhelming it can be in the beginning” Soren replied. Nial let his hands roam
all over Soren’s new body bringing it to life. Soren’s Cock began to engorge.
“Wow…that looks like a good eight and half inches, and almost as thick as a
femur bone” Nial said and laughed. “Don’t give me grief…look at yours…it is
even bigger than mine” Soren said and laughed while reaching to touch Nial’s
hardening length. “Oh that feels nice. I don’t think we should have sex
though…I would wear you out too fast. Let’s just massage each other into
climax” Nial said panting. “Alright…will you kiss me again though” Soren asked
all hot and breathy? Nial smiled and responded with his lips on Soren’s lips,
and his tongue dueling with Soren’s.
(I see Soren as looking like Sean Farris)
Both men were too turned on to last for long and after only
a few moments they both came hard onto each others bodies. They clung to each
other and both groaned in ecstasy as they came. When they came down from the
high, Nial kissed Soren hard and then said “Welcome to earth” with his great
smirk. “Thank you” Soren said with a smile, “I hope we can do this again some
time”. “Oh don’t worry, we will” Nial said. “Now let’s get you cleaned up. I
will soap you down and you let the water soak your hair but don’t wash it yet.
It is still too new. Wait about two days before you wash it with shampoo”. “Oh
shampoo, I learned about that in class” Soren said excited. Nial laughed and
washed the traces of dirt off of Soren’s body. When they were finished Nial got
a white hoodie t-shirt and a pair of black loose fitting night pants made of
the same t-shirt material and put them on Soren. “This fabric feels good” Soren
commented. “Ya, it is great” Nial said.
Now get some food and then rest. You need to sleep for a few
hours. Wait till tomorrow to go out. If you get bored there are lots of shows
on television now, there is a guide there, and there is a library of movies by
the player with an easy to understand manual underneath the television cabinet.
The t.v. is that flat thing on the wall over there. If books are your thing I
will take you shopping for some tomorrow. There are shelves for a full library
over there, but there are only a few books on it now. You should read that book
that the humans have for their most popular version of the bible. It is sort of
funny but it borders on blasphemy too. If they only had a clue how much they
got wrong and didn’t understand they would quake” Nial said, and then went on…
“Oh there is a really neat series I left for you to read. Most teen girl and
many young gay men really like it. It is a fantasy romance about a girl who
falls for a vampire. They are a fun read, give them a shot if you get bored
like said” Nial explained. Angels even in human form could read faster than the
human mind can comprehend. They merely have to hold a book and let their
fingers scan the pages with their eyes closed and the words get absorbed into
their minds very quickly. They are voracious readers and can devour whole
libraries in a matter of weeks. “Alright …thanks that sounds fun” Soren said.
Soren went to the kitchen and found a bag containing what Nial explained was a
hamburger and fries. There was a cup with a straw beside it containing soda and
when Soren tasted it, he smiled and sucked the cup dry in a matter of minutes
and then began to devour the burger and fries. Nial just watched and laughed.
Newly incarnated angels all seemed the same, but this one was special somehow…more
excited than others, full of more life.
“Oh before I go …what about a middle name…I need to add one
to the documents”? “Oh, um…well…I always liked Lost Causes so how about Jude…
Soren Jude Angelis”? “Great…give me just a moment to add the middle name to
your documents and your picture”. Nial held the documents looked at Soren
really intensely and then closed his eyes. A light encapsulated the documents
and then it was done. “Take a look Soren and see what you think”. He handed the
documents to Soren and Soren took them and looked. There were medical records,
a birth certificate, a passport, a driver’s license and state I.D., as well as
a large stack of other official papers that he guessed he would need for other
things. He was listed as having been adopted by loving parents who had died a
few years prior in an accident. Soren stared at his own new face in the pictures
and couldn’t help but smile. “Thanks Nial everything looks so wonderful”.
“Alright well get some rest and tomorrow I will be back and take you out. We
will go see some sites, go shopping, run by your new job so you can see the
campus, and then I will take you to dinner Nial said and then turned to leave.
“Nial before you go…”? “Yes” Nial said. “Will you kiss me one more time” Soren
asked blushing? Nial smiled and kissed Soren and then kissed his head… “Get
some sleep now beautiful”. “Thanks” Soren said and went to the bedroom to lay
down. Before he got into bed he heard the door shut and he wondered into the
bath room. He looked at his new face in the mirror and smiled and touched it.
Then he went to the very large bed and laid down. In no time at all he drifted
off into dreams of flying through the air and then tasting food and soda, and
then having fun in the shower with Nial… and being kissed.
Five hours later he awoke and began to wonder around his new
abode. Everything was decorated in a manner he did indeed like very well. The
place seemed minimalist to a degree, but warm and welcoming. He would get more
things later, which he figured was the idea. The curtains were done in jewel
tones of teal blue and emerald. The outside walls were a gray and white brick.
The inside walls were painted a metallic glossy silver. The large wrap around
sofa in the living area was black and the wood floors were black as well. There
were brightly colored pillows all over the sofa in fabrics with sheen, and
several colorful throws as well. There was a table made inside of the center of
the ottoman of the same black wood as the floors and the shelves, but the table
was painted with silver crackling paint making lightening like patterns on it. There
was little to no pictures on any wall, and large natural colored wood beams
across the ceiling creating a type of contrast against the black wood floor and
shelves. The kitchen was very modern looking to Soren, filled with stainless
steel appliances, but according to his preferences there was a lot of wood as
well. The huge island in the center had a surface made of bright blue lapis.
The counter tops in the rest of the kitchen were copper and all the back
splashes were made of iridescent blue shell mini tiles. The little dinning area
had some plants, and huge French doors that led out onto a large balcony, which
had a stair way that led to a roof top garden and entertainment area. His dining
area housed a cute antique looking table and chairs made of black wood and
carved with simple gothic arch designs. The bar which separated the kitchen
from the dining space had very modern looking stools that were bright blue like
the surface of the island and the backsplashes. The entry way was simple with a
mirror, a coat rack and another one which was a wall rack, along with an
umbrella holder and a small table against the wall. The front door led to a
small foyer with the lift. Inside the foyer was also a door which had stairs
that led down and another set leading up to the roof area. All the lighting was
modern except for the chandelier over the living room sofa. The dinning area
was separated from the living room by a small little section of a wall. The
t.v. was on the far wall, and the fire place and mantle were on the wall with
the balcony doors. The fireplace was iridescent mini-tiles done in abalone
looking shell which was overwhelmingly teal in color. There was a short hallway
on the opposite wall to the bedroom. The bedroom had no door but he could but
up a curtain or something he supposed. The Bed in the bedroom was raised just
slightly off the floor in a built in pedestal. The comforter was a deep fuchsia
with black filigree print on it. The pillows matched, but the sheets were made
of black and silver satin. The dresser was made of mirror. There was an area of
the bed room which had a small alter and meditation space set up. He would get
the things he wanted for that later, but for now there was a small alter table
and a round meditation pillow covered in teal fabric with a sheen to it. His
walk in closet was empty but huge, a room all to itself; and the walk in safe
was inside of it, in the back corner. He grabbed his bag and entered his
special code and the safe opened. He put the bag inside of it and closed the
safe back up. The bathroom was large with a walk in shower large enough to hold
five adults and a long bench on one side. There was a bath tub against the
other wall built into a romantic alcove. The sink was thin and held a large
lapis bowel on top. On the far wall by the tub and the small room which held
the toilet was a closet; which held towels and space for other things. A small
cabinet on a wall next to the wall which had the sink, held toiletries and
other basics he would need. Soren was really pleased with this abode. “They are
good at what they do” Soren said aloud to his empty apartment.
He smiled, and then wondered over to the book shelves in the
living room. He took the stack of books off and went to the sofa to sit down
and read. He looked at the bible and read the print. “The King James version”…
he began to scan the book and after he was half way through with the new
testament he gave a loud confused guffaw and threw the book behind him on the
floor in a most irreverent manner. “Ridiculous …Nial is right, that bordered on
blasphemy…it was just silly” He thought and began to scan the stack of Four
fantasy books. He settled in and began to read the story. He had scanned all
four books in a matter of hours and then went the kitchen to eat again and
think about the story he just read. “I
liked that story but some of those people have real issues. I wonder if the
author knows any real crazy people she based the troubled characters on?
Perhaps I might find a way to get them into a facility for help if she does”
he thought to himself and smiled. He went back to the living room after getting
an apple, a banana, and some sort of chocolate pastry out of the kitchen with a
glass of water and then he went back and got a glass of orange juice.
He went to the television cabinet and picked up the manual
and the remote and then went and set down and began to read the manual. After
two minutes he set it down and then scanned the guide of programs and after he
was finished he used the remote to turn on the television. He found a movie
about an alien invasion. He laughed to himself again wondering why the humans
still didn’t realize that aliens had already been living among them and
breeding with them for hundreds of years already. He flipped channels supremely
uninterested about the alien movie. He found a show about cops and continued to
flip. He found another one about the environment and climate change and almost
wanted to cry. He knew the troubles well. “Why
can’t they just see how wrong it is to do what they are doing to their home? It
is a sin… true, but more than that…..it is a travesty. Don’t they understand at
all, what fate they will bring on themselves? Well I guess that is part of the
way I can help while I am here. Humans have it so easy, an angel’s vacation is
always a working one…well, at least there are perks and so far Nial is
definitely one of the perks. I can’t wait to find my own mate though, I hope it
doesn’t take me eight years like last time” he thought as he continued
going through the channels. He came across a movie that was about to start. The
description said that it was about two sisters who were witches. Being an angel
and having a natural fascination with people who are enamored of the occult, he
had to watch. He sat fascinated by these things called movies and how far they
had come since the last time he had visited the inside of a movie theater. The
last movie theater he had gone to was when he was assigned to watch a woman
named Martha who was being followed by a possessive and disturbed ex-husband. It
was many years ago and the movie had been in black and white. The colors now
however were more gorgeous than he would have imagined. When the movie was
finished he turned off the television. He had very much enjoyed the movie; then
again he liked any story where Love was the main virtue and where it overcame
all obstacles in the end. The juice was good and the fruit was as well. The
water had quenched his thirst, but the chocolate pastry really made his
taste-buds happy. He got some more water and then went back to bed to get some
sleep.
Nial woke him up at eleven o’clock the next day. Nial let
himself in and woke him with a kiss making Soren smile and rise happy. He
discovered waking up that he was hard. “Don’t worry it happens almost every
morning….in case you didn’t remember” Nial said amused. “Oh yes…I had
forgotten…well excuse me while I go relive my body”. “Certainly…but while you
are in there go ahead and shower but no shampoo yet remember, and I will lay
your cloths out for you. There are clean towels on the shelves in the bathroom cupboard”
Nial said. As Soren showered, Nial set out an outfit for Soren to wear, then he
went to the bathroom to lay out the tooth brush and tooth paste so he could
teach Soren what he would need to do. Soren emerged from the shower naked with
out any shame of his body and began to dry off in front of Nial; not that there
was any reason to be ashamed of any part of his body… Nial smiled. Nial
explained how the tooth cleaning supplies worked and then told him that an outfit
was laying on the bed waiting for him.
Soren cleaned his teeth and used the other cosmetic products
that Nial had set out for him and explained. The deodorant was something Soren
thought clever, not that he needed it, but he used a little anyway just to feel
more human. Afterwards he found some grey pants laying out for him that Nial
called jeans and a blue form fitting Hoodie, with a black and blue jacket of
some kind. There were some form of black loin coverings called boxer briefs
that Soren found most amusing, and he had to admit a little convenient, but the
thought of having something so binding on his manhood was not something he
liked. Again to feel more human he put them on followed by something called
socks and some strange form of foot coverings called boots. Soren had seen
things like them before on soldiers in the human militaries that he had gone
to; in order to help protect or to escort their souls home. The only time
angels wore anything like them was during large battles. Nial gave him a wallet
and explained the purpose. It contained money and identification. It had a
chain attached and Soren didn’t like the thought of sitting on it so he put it
in is right side pocket and the chain hung down. Nial gave him a pair of
sunglasses and then they locked up and headed out.
Nial took Soren to breakfast near by. They had scrambled
eggs and toast with jam. Nial told Soren all about a substance humans consumed
by the gallons especially in the morning called coffee. Soren tried it and spit
it out. “That was horrible, how can they drink that” Soren asked confused? “I
don’t know, they seem to relish it. I would rather have almost anything else
myself. It must be one of the ways we are different from them even in this
form. Now if you want something good… chocolate milk, or even better …hot
chocolate. That is how a drink is supposed to taste. But you can go with water,
orange juice or tea for breakfast as well; and of course there is always plain
milk. When Going out at night you can order wine. That stuff is still good and
though the taste is stronger now than it used to be, the affects are weaker.
You can order soda or something. Liquors are alright, but take my advice and
stay away from beer. It is truly awful and you will hate it. We all do, that I have
ever known anyway. Ale and mead are still good if you can find them, but they
are rare nowadays” Nial explained and then went and got some large cups of hot
coco for them. Soren had drunk the entire cup in less than two minutes. “Wow
that is really good” Soren said with the smile of a child in wonder, causing
Nial to laugh. When breakfast was over they headed to the stores to go
shopping.
Nial explained the
best order to shop for things in. cloths first, under cloths and accessories after
wards, and foot wear last. They shopped for four hours straight and by the time
they were done the entire back seat and trunk were full of a new wardrobe for
Soren. Then they went back to Soren’s place and dropped everything off. They
headed out again after Nial showed Soren how to do laundry, and this time went
shopping for food and again went back and stocked up Soren’s place with
groceries and supplies. Again they went out and this time they went to a book
store. “Did you read those books I left for you”? “Oh yes, it didn’t take long.
I liked the book series about the girl who falls in love with a vampire but
some of those characters need real help and if they are based on real people I
think it is our duty to make sure they get some help” Soren said with true sincerity
causing Nial to laugh so hard he almost lost control of his vehicle for the
first time. Soren just looked at him questioningly, not understanding what was
so funny but deciding not to ask. “First though I tried to read that James
Bible and I threw it down. It is just ridiculous. Don’t they have any real
versions here”? “Oh sure…but they have to seek them out in order to find them,
and most don’t even know to bother. I have a few versions that are far better…
though as human devices they are still imperfect. I will show them to you so
you can help distribute them when you can” Nial replied. At the book store Nial
loaded Soren up with lots of different series. Something called the Harry
Potter series, and then The Chronicles of Narnia, The Lord of the Rings and
something called the hobbit; along with other books apparently written around
the series. Then Nial bought several books he said were called erotica for
Soren. He bought some history books and some non fictions as well. Then some
audio books for Soren to listen to. Then they left and went to a store that
sold both movies and music and Nial loaded Soren’s library up with lots and
lots of movies and cd’s. Once they were in the car again half the day was gone.
“Alright …I also brought you a few Porno movies so you can see what is expected
sexually now from men who have relationships with men. After we drop this stuff
at your place let’s go out and see some sites and go to the movies and dinner
before we call it quits for the night. Tomorrow I can take you to see some
more sites if you want” Nial said. “Oh yes please! So what do these porno
movies show exactly”? “Men having sex, but I also put a bisexual porno in the
pack and a few straight ones as well so that you can know and understand things
better here”. “Thanks…that will be most helpful” Soren said!
After they left the apartment again they went around Seattle and Nial showed
Soren the Major sites and then showed him the university campus he would be
teaching at. Soren’s golden eyes were wide with awe the entire time. “Humans
have learned how to do so much, but they seem to have forgotten more than they
have learned” Soren noted. “Yes that is very true and very sad, but many people
are starting to remember vital things, so there is still hope for them to get
it right before the end” Nial responded. Nial took Soren to see a movie called Snow
White and the Huntsman. Nial smiled as throughout the entire movie Soren was
shifting uncomfortably in his seat. He had to keep shifting because of the
raging hard-on he had due to looking at Chris Hemsworth.
Soren had to carry his jacket in front of him to hide his
boner as they walked back to the car after the movie. “So I take it you liked
the movie, or at least part of you did. Was it the prince or the huntsman”?
“Both” Soren said ruefully. Soren then noticed the difference between Nial’s
vehicle and everyone else’s. Every window was tinted.
When they were inside,
Nial reached over and gave Soren’s hard cock a squeeze through his pants
causing Soren’s to gasp. Nial didn’t say a word to Soren, he just reached over
him and reclined his seat. Then he unzipped his pants and took Soren’s steely
length out and began to stroke it. Nial bent over and took it into his mouth.
In hardly any time at all he was deep throating Soren, and Soren let out a deep
loud moan and braced himself and the car shook for a moment. After only a few
moments Soren came hard and Nial sucked Soren’s release till every drop of it
was gone. Nial grabbed a kleenex from the box he kept stashed in the glove
department for such emergencies and reclined his own seat and took his own
hard-on out and began to stroke himself. Soren leaned over him and kissed him
and then began to suck Nial off just the way Nial had done it for him. Nial was
panting and moaning in his deep husky clear voice. After several more minutes
than it had taken Soren, Nial came hard and Soren drank down Nial’s juices.
Soren sucked and sucked until there was no more to suck. Nial just let him suck
until he wanted to stop even though the sensations were so powerful they were
almost painful. Nial pulled Soren up when he was finished and kissed him again.
“That was so good” Soren said! “That was good” Nial agreed with a smile, then
he stuffed the unused kleenex’s back into the glove-box. “So now where to for
dinner”? “You would know better than me” Soren said with a dazed smirk. “I
think I will take you to this little Mexican restaurant called Tineo. “Alright”
Soren said. Dinner went by slowly and Soren enjoyed every moment of it. He learned
that he really enjoyed Mexican food as well. He loved talking with Nial. Nial
finally took him home for the night and kissed him again before he left. Soren
went in and began to unpack and put away all of his buys. He watched a movie
and breezed through a couple of books and then took off all his cloths and went
to sleep for the night.
When he woke he took a shower and got dressed in some new
cloths and then ate breakfast. He didn’t hear from Nial till half way through
the day. When the phone did ring it was 3:30 in the afternoon. “Hey I’m at my Art Gallery
about two blocks from your apartment. Why don’t you come down, I would like to
show you where I work and the new exhibit I just opened for a new young local
artist”.
“Sure” Soren said.
The studio is called
The Patrellis Gallery. You just go out your front door and walk across the
street and around the corner on the left and then walk for about hmmm… five
minutes and take two rights and you can’t miss my sign. Oh dress in some nicer
looking cloths because this is an upscale establishment” Nial instructed and
laughed.
“See you in a little while” Soren said and hung up his new
cell phone. Soren knew the differences between casual, semi-casual, and formal
because Nial had explained them all to him while shopping for cloths. By Nicer
Nial was implying that Soren should wear semi-casual. He went to his closet and
pulled out some sleek ankle high boots, a pair of dark colored slacks, and then
found a long sleeve dark teal v-neck Shirt that was so tight it showed almost every
line of every muscle, and then a form fitting black vest. His necklace hung
above the collar of the shirt and he put on one of the accessories that Nial
had bought him; which was a metal cuff bracelet set with one of the earth
stones that was nearest in appearance to his Celestone; the angelic star stone
in his necklace. The cuff had a large Labradorite. The leather cuff he wanted
to wear seemed too casual for the aesthetic of the outfit to him. He grabbed a
nice black dress coat out his closet and put it on along with a teal colored
scarf. Then he chained the wallet to his pants and put his house key on the
ring with his wallet and then pocketed it. He grabbed the umbrella device as
Nial had called it, locked up and headed out. It was a little confusing at
first, but Soren finally found the street and saw the sign. When he got to the
door it was locked and closed so he knocked. After a moment a young man opened
it and let him in. “Soren is it”? Soren nodded and said “Hello” and shook the
young man’s hand. “I’m Derek…Nial’s assistant. Nial is upstairs and said he
would be down in a moment. He said you should look around at the art while you
are waiting”. Soren Nodded and then Derek took his coat, scarf, and umbrella
and stashed them behind the front desk. Derek was of average height and had
medium brown hair with only a hint of some natural golden highlights, and hazel
eyes over which he wore glasses. His skin was for the most part smooth and
without much facial hair; he was truly an attractive person.
(random guy I found on the net, this is how I see Derek)
Soren walked
around thinking about how big the gallery was. He looked at the different
paintings, apparently all done by a man named Ethen Nicklaus Johanus. The
paintings were far different from what used to exist on the planet. Soren had
seen such things in books but never in person that he could recall, except the
briefest of moments during his assignments. The last time he was on earth for
an extended stay was during a time when some of the best art was on cavern
walls. Soren was fascinated with the colors and the statements he supposed the
artist was trying to make. He came across one of that particularly stood out
among all the rest. The rest seemed to be city-scapes, landscapes, or some
beautiful naked woman laying in different positions. There were also a few of
various types of couples. The landscapes and city-scapes were very different
looking compared to the ones of people. The scapes were more impressionistic,
more fanciful and dreamlike. The people were more realistic despite some being
endowed with mythical elements. It was almost as if the artist saw the world
like a hazy dream until he saw humanity which brought things into a type of
focus for him.
(The original title of this piece is unknown to me
but the real artist is Marek Langowski)
(I don't know the real title or the real
artist of this piece, I found it online)
Then there it was…a large painting depicting a very naked
solitary man, who Soren recognized as Nial. The painting depicted Nial standing
and flexing with an erection; almost as if he were not only proud of his body
but defiant in a way…like he was not only flaunting but out right boasting that
he could make anyone fall for him and simultaneously conquer the world. He was
surrounding by very modern abstract bars, boxes, circles, and wavy lines of
color as if he was the only reality in the painting. It was as if for the
artist Nial was the only real thing and everything else was nothing but
inconsequential shapes and forms; Nial was an organic reality compared to the
contrived chaos of the world around him which would be lesser somehow without
him there. Though for all the color in the picture Nial was almost black and
white in comparison…making Soren wonder what the artist was really trying to
say about him…did he see Nial as someone who saw the world in black and white?
Was he trying to say that despite his beauty Nail was flat and shallow but that
he was still the only real thing for the artist? Soren couldn’t decide what
that detail meant, but this painting was vastly different in style to all the
others making it seem not only to stand out, but very odd hanging there among
the others.
“See something you like” came a deep familiar voice behind him.
Soren turned around blushing and said, “You posed for an artist”? “Oh yes, I
have to do that sometimes; and if you saw the artist you would know that it
wasn’t work on my part. Hands off though when you see him. He is all mine...well
that is to say, I am the only man he sleeps with. Not that we sleep a lot when
we do lay down together. Usually he prefers women but apparently I am irresistible”
Nial said with a haughty smirk and a giggle! “You Sir are incorrigible I think”
Soren replied. “The show opens in an hour. You can stay here, or you can go
around to some of the bars on the block and come back later. Derek knows what
you look like now so he won’t charge you when you come back”. “Alright” Soren
said, “Are these paintings for sale”? “Of course” Nial said! “Good I will take
that one” Soren said pointing to the painting of Nial and smiling. “Consider it
sold” Nial said with a proud smirk and then showed Soren to the door after he
retrieved his coat and umbrella. “Nice out fit by the way. Very nice actually.
I approve” Nial said. “Oh, good” Soren said with a smile and walked out to see
the near by establishments.
He visited a few different bars which he always called
taverns making people give him strange looks. This amused him terribly and so
he did it at each one. He got back to gallery just a little ahead of time, and
so was in there before anyone else, making some of the people waiting to get in
a little miffed. The artist came to meet him and Soren gladly took the man’s
hand. The man was tall though no where near Nial’s height. He had dark golden
hair and smokey blue-grey eyes. His face was very good looking with both
angular and square features, and golden scruff.
(Crhis C. is how I see Ethen)
“I understand you have
purchased one of my pieces…Thank you” Ethen said in a manly but also bright and
elegant voice. “Yes, I love the one of Nial, he is a friend of mine as you
know. I just thought it would be terrific on my wall” Soren replied. “Well I
hope you like it once you get it home. Things can look different in different
places you know”. “Oh I am sure that it will be fine thank you. Your work is
amazing. I especially love how you ….well, how the colors and brush strokes
look. Your technique is quite wonderful”. At hearing this the artist smiled,
blushed, and said his thanks. “So Ethen, this painting is so different from all
the others…why is that, and what do you call it” Soren asked? “Yes it is
radically different from my other two styles that I do. I am sure you noticed
the difference between them. I have never done pop art before. This was a first
for me”. “Yes it is almost like you see the world as a dream …hazy and confused
but beautiful none the less; and that humanity …and sexuality bring things into
focus for you” Soren commented. “I am truly honored that you bought my
painting. You are the first person besides Nial to ever understand that about
me. The one of Nial is so different because he is different than anything else
in my entire life. He brings even the focus into focus for me, but he seems to
block out everything else…distracting me. I think of this piece as a statement
on the power of his masculine beauty and sexuality, but also on his …well, his
cockiness and haughtiness as I am sure you know he has. He changed my world…my
life, forever. Until I met him I was an agnostic. It isn’t that I disbelieved
that there was something more out there…but I just never thought about it or
cared. You’re his friend so I am sure you know that we are occasional lovers by
now? To the people he knows, he isn’t very restrained with what goes on in his
life”. “Yes…he did mention that to me”. “Well the first time we made love was
what changed everything for me. I had never even thought about being with a man
or wanted to. When I was painting him though... for whatever reason, I became so …so
impassioned that I threw myself at him and he didn’t resist me. We took turns
being the top I guess you would say. I went first and then he went. When he
caused me to orgasm and he released into me…I swear I saw glimpses of the
universe and it was very different than how I had always thought of it. It is sort of like I had always seen the world in black and white and didn't know it, but being with him forced me suddenly to see all the color of life around me. I call
this painting Defiance
because he defied everything I thought I knew” Ethen said. Soren was fascinated
by the young artist and the way he saw the world…and the way he saw Nial. “I
know you have to go, but thanks for taking the time to speak with me” Soren
said. Ethen smiled and shook his hand again.
Then he wondered over
to stand by Nial as the doors were opened and a large gathering of people came
in to see the show. After an hour of looking at the work again and grabbing a
small snack from the table of food and beverages that were being offered Soren
decided it was time to go home. Nial said goodbye and told him that once the
show was over in two weeks the painting would be brought to him and then he
would be billed. Soren nodded his head and laughed before leaving.
***********
That is when it happened! Angels can’t see someone in need
and not help if they know the person truly wants help; even if the angel is on
vacation. On his way home he passed an ally-way and saw a young man sitting on
the cold ground shivering in his coat. The young man was extremely handsome
with rounded features, the slightest hint of a cleft in his chin, and kind sad
eyes. His eyes like his hair were dark, and his hair was cut into an attractive
type of Mohawk. By looking at the young man he could tell that if he were
standing they would be almost matched in height, with the young man slightly
shorter than himself. The youth looked tired and as if he had survived some
horrific tragedy. It was almost as if he could hear the boy’s soul crying
out…not to him in-particular but to anyone in spirit who would listen.
(Farris as I see him looks like Jason V. from All American Guys)
Soren approached the young man who looked utterly startled and backed as hard as he
could up against the wall.
“It’s ok, I am not here to hurt you. I thought you might
need help” Soren said!
“No thanks, I’m just fine” The young man said in a deep
gruff voice that sounded far older than it should.
“Do you need someplace to stay. I have a place near by. You
can eat and take a shower if you want”.
“I don’t do shelters sir. I have had my fill of them”.
“I was actually referring to my apartment” Soren said with a
smile.
“Look Mr. if you are
after sex, well no offense but you won’t get it from me. I don’t do that”!
“You don’t what”?
“Have sex” the young
man said.
“Well that is sad.
However I was not trying to pick you up. I can go out and get beded if that is
what I want. I’m not exactly a mutant am I, and I have a terrific new job
starting in a little while so…do you want a place to stay”?
“No… you are not a
mutant. I am sorry if I offended you. I have just been propositioned so many
times by both men and women that I just expect…well you know”.
“Well I am sure that is true, looking the way you do. I
promise though I won’t try anything. I just don’t think anyone should sleep on
the streets and since you were put in my path; well I have to assume that it is
for a reason and I am supposed to help you”!
“So you believe in fate”?
“Let’s say that I believe in Destiny and Divine Will”!
“You’re not some religious nut who is going to try and save
me are you? Frankly I have been supposedly saved…for a meal…one too many times
and I can’t go through that one again either”.
“Well let’s say I do have religious beliefs, but I would
never try to convert anyone to my way of looking at things. To each their own.
Come home with me, or are you going to make me sleep out here in the street
watching over you; because I will you know. If I see someone who looks like
their in trouble I will not be able to sleep for being concerned about them”.
“Alright…if you really wouldn’t mind. It is getting a little
cold now and I don’t want to get sick again”!
“Alright then, let’s go… follow me” Soren said and reached
out his hand to the young man and helped him to his feet. The young man put his
coat on the right way and threw a bag over his shoulder. If he had to get away
from another nut-job he had a gun and he would use it; not to mention the knife
he had in his pocket.
Soren led the way back to his place and they went in. The
young man looked around and his eyes got wide. “I guess you do alright for
yourself sir” he said. “I do alright, and you can call me Soren. The sir is
making me feel really old, though I appreciate the manners. And your name is”?
“Soren…that’s a name I haven’t heard before. My name is
Farris Anthony but my friends usually call me fair”.
“What a great name. Mind if I call you Fair when we have
known each other a while…I like that” Soren responded.
“Soren call me whatever you want. It really doesn’t make a
difference to me”.
“Alright, well why don’t you go have a nice shower and get
warmed up. If you need to do laundry there is a room downstairs. The whole
building is mine such that it is. If you don’t have night cloths I can get some
laid out for you. Then we can eat, and afterwards I am going to watch some
movies”!
“That sounds great thanks. I don’t have any cloths. Just the
ones I am wearing right now. Thanks for this Soren. It has been a long time
since…someone was so nice to me”.
Soren wanted to shed a tear but restrained himself not
wanting to make the boy feel worse. “Well think nothing of it. The shower is
right through there and around the corner. Tomorrow we will go shopping and I
will get a you a few things”.
Farris looked at him and smiled, “Are you trying to
establish sainthood”?
“No, just doing my part to help humanity. Now go on, go get
warmed up”.
Farris walked into the bedroom and then found the bathroom.
He found the closet of towels and shut the door behind him. Soren went into the
bedroom and got some sleeping cloths and then went and knocked on the door and
told Farris that he was hanging cloths on the back of the door for him. Farris
shouted that he heard him and then Soren went to prepare dinner for them.
When Farris was done in the shower, he got out and toweled
off feeling like a new person to a degree. He wrapped up all of his dirty
cloths in the towel and then put his weapons into his bag. He opened the door
slightly and found the cloths. He retrieved them and shut the door quickly to
get dressed. The night cloths were light blue, and the nicest thing he had worn
in several years. He felt a little vulnerable though with no underwear on, but
he decided it wouldn’t make a difference. For some reason he couldn’t
understand, he believed that Soren was being honest when he said he wouldn’t
try anything. He grabbed the bag and his shoes, along with the towel holding
his cloths and he went out to the living room. When he arrived out in the
living room he found Soren making a small feast for dinner in the kitchen. He
found a platter of fruits and cheeses. He smelled something wonderful in the
air and his stomach began to turn and growl, as his mouth watered. “I hope you
like Pot Pie. It seemed an appropriate dish for the occasion. Your not a
vegetarian are you”?
“No, it smells so good”.
“Good…feeling better”?
“Words can’t express how much. Where can I put my stuff? Oh
and also…I have this laundry I need to do”.
“You can put your things over by the wall next to the sofa
and have a seat if you want. Drinks are in the refrigerator. I will take your
laundry and put it in”.
Farris just looked at Soren as if he were an alien. He
thought he might have passed out in the ally and that he might be dreaming. If
he was, he didn’t want to wake up any time soon. He handed the cloths to Soren
who exited the room and headed to the first level.
Once Soren was gone he grabbed some fruit and cheese and ate
it swiftly as if he was doing something wrong. Then he went to the fridge and
grabbed a bottled water, and a can of soda. He headed to the couch and grabbed
his bag and shoes and put them beside the wall. He found a throw on the couch
and covered himself up with it.
Soren was throwing the cloths into the washer downstairs and
doing exactly what Nial had taken time to teach him the day before. When he saw
the underwear, he picked them up, and not being able to help himself he inhaled
their scent. Farris’s odor filled his head and he got dizzy for a moment with
lust causing his head to reel. He grew instantly hard smelling the mix of
sweat, testosterone, pheromones, cum, and even the acidic traces of urine. He
threw in the underwear and then the towel in with the pants, the shirt, and the
jacket. He put in some washing liquid and turned on the machine. He got himself
under control and then headed back upstairs. He picked up the tray of fruits
and cheeses and carried it to the living room. He found Farris looking around.
Soren smiled and turned on the television with the volume low. Soren considered
Farris very slowly and with great focus. Farris was simply beautiful. “So if
you don’t mind me asking… and if you don’t want to answer you don’t have to…how
did you…”? “Come to be a street urchin”? “Not the words I would have chosen,
but yes”. “I didn’t have the greatest home life and that’s all I want to say
about that. I ran away when I was 12 and I have been living in and out the
system and on and off the streets ever since. I have been in a lot of really bad
situations. I’ve seen so many things in my life…my very long short life” Farris
answered. “Wow that is more honesty than I have heard out of someone like you
in a while”. “Someone like me” Farris said? Soren had to think fast to cover up
terrible lapse. “A young person I mean” Soren said. “You can’t be much older
than I am” Farris said with a confused grin. “That’s probably true. I have just
gotten used to thinking about people your age as young…I guess it’s because I’m
a teacher”. “What do you teach”? “I will teach anything except science and I
prefer not to teach math. My specialty is Literature and I am also great with
history, philosophy, and religion. And after the terrific show I saw tonight, I
think I may go and get credited to teach art appreciation” Soren replied. “Wow,
that is a really impressive repertoire” Farris said. “Thanks” Soren replied
blushing. “I bet the food is ready, I will go see. I hope you don’t mind me
watching some movies”. “No that sounds really nice. I haven’t seen any in a
long time except through store windows or when I can sneak into a theater which
is a lot harder these days” Farris said. Soren went and prepared the plates and
the food which he found was indeed ready. “God that smells good” Farris said.
Soren brought the plates along with forks and hands towels. Farris took his
plate with a thank you and began to eat his food like he might never get
another meal. Soren excused the poor etiquette considering the circumstances
and bowed his head and closed his eyes. He made some motions over his food and
breathed on it before crossing himself after saying a short prayer. Farris
looked at him like he was some sort of strange creature in a magical side show
exhibit until Soren opened his eyes making Farris avert his eyes very quickly.
Soren picked up his plate and began to eat slowly as if every bite was the best taste he had ever put into his mouth. After dinner was over Soren took the plates and put them into the sink and then sank back down into his sofa cushions and asked “What kind of movies do you like”? “I like anything really” Farris said. “Well I was given some fantasy d.v.d’s. would you mind if I watched them”? “No not at all”. “Alright, well if you get sleepy go lay down in the bed. I am going to take the sofa tonight”. “No I can’t let you do that after all this” Farris said taken aback. “Nonsense, you are my guest and shall have the best of what I have. Besides how long has it been since you had a proper nights sleep? I want you to have a good rest for tomorrow. Shopping will be tiring” Soren said. “Alright if that is what you want…thank you, but I think it’s too much” Farris said. “How can there ever be enough of doing good things” Soren asked? “Please don’t be too nice to me, I don’t want to get used to it”. “I want you to get used to it. I am going to help you change your life you know. I promise you that when I am through with you, you will never want for anything ever again. You will have a home, a job you love, and a good life” Soren said. Upon hearing this Farris laughed. “How can you go around promising things like that, don’t you know it’s wrong to make people hope and dream for things that will never happen” Farris asked?
Soren picked up his plate and began to eat slowly as if every bite was the best taste he had ever put into his mouth. After dinner was over Soren took the plates and put them into the sink and then sank back down into his sofa cushions and asked “What kind of movies do you like”? “I like anything really” Farris said. “Well I was given some fantasy d.v.d’s. would you mind if I watched them”? “No not at all”. “Alright, well if you get sleepy go lay down in the bed. I am going to take the sofa tonight”. “No I can’t let you do that after all this” Farris said taken aback. “Nonsense, you are my guest and shall have the best of what I have. Besides how long has it been since you had a proper nights sleep? I want you to have a good rest for tomorrow. Shopping will be tiring” Soren said. “Alright if that is what you want…thank you, but I think it’s too much” Farris said. “How can there ever be enough of doing good things” Soren asked? “Please don’t be too nice to me, I don’t want to get used to it”. “I want you to get used to it. I am going to help you change your life you know. I promise you that when I am through with you, you will never want for anything ever again. You will have a home, a job you love, and a good life” Soren said. Upon hearing this Farris laughed. “How can you go around promising things like that, don’t you know it’s wrong to make people hope and dream for things that will never happen” Farris asked?
“Believe me or not…
as you like, but I vow to you that I am being completely sincere and completely
serious”. Somehow even though he didn’t want to think about it, let alone
believe it…he knew Soren was telling him the truth which was a frightening
concept to him. This man really did want to help him and change his life. “Who thinks that way anymore” Farris
thought to himself? He didn’t want to hear anything that would make him hope
for more. His heart had been broken far too many times in life already. He
couldn’t bare anymore disappointment. “So what do you want out of life Farris”?
Farris looked thoughtful and then said before, he could stop the words from
coming out of his mouth… “I want …I want what I never had… a family and a home.
I want to wake up in the morning and know that I will wake up to love and I
want to go to sleep knowing what peace feels like” Farris said with tears
stinging his eyes… “what was wrong with
him” he wondered? He couldn’t stop being totally honest with this stranger.
He never even knew he felt that way….he never realized that is what he truly
wanted out of life. “I want to make music”. “A musician huh…well…than I promise
you that you will have what you have just asked for”. “Don’t say that please”
Farris said. “Alright, I won’t say it again” Soren said. He got up and put in
the d.v.d. of Lord of The Rings. As they waited for the movie to start, Soren
asked “So what instrument do you play”? “I can sing a little and play the
guitar. I learned in one of the homes I was in before….before I had to leave. I
always wanted to learn to play the piano as well. I only had a few lessons when
I was young but I always thought I could be good at that” Farris answered.
“Well I can make that happen…now before the movie starts…tell me something”. “What
do you want to know now” Farris said with a rueful smile? “Before we get to a
job you love, we need to start you out with a job that you can have right now…I
have to hire an assistant for when I teach, I don’t do teachers assistants. I
always hire outside help” Soren said making things up as he went along; then he
continued “How would you feel about coming to work for me when I start teaching
at the end of next month? Until then, you can help out around here”. Farris was
again taken by surprise, at the kindness of the offer. “What would I do for you
as an assistant…how do I even know if I am qualified”? “Oh you are more than
qualified. You will help me grade papers and run errands for me, and you will
take calls for me and prepare my schedule”? “I think… I think I can do that”
Farris said with a smile, “but are you sure you want to hire me? I mean you
don’t even know me. I am just some random guy off the streets” Farris asked
afraid of the answer?
“Absolutely! And you are not just some random guy off the
street. You are a human being who deserves as much dignity as every other human
being” Soren said and then the previews were over and the movie began. Farris
didn’t know what to make of Soren, who had to be one of the strangest people he
had ever encountered; and he didn’t care what Soren said…he was totally trying
to make saint status. They watched the entire directors cut of the movie and
then Farris had fallen asleep. Soren had enjoyed the movie thoroughly and
looked over to see that Farris had fallen asleep. He got up and made a motion
over Farris; a sleeping influence, so that he wouldn’t wake up till the next
day. He picked Farris up and carried him to the bed. He covered him up and then
bent and kissed his forehead.
Then he walked back out to the living room and picked up his
phone and dialed Nial. “You know it is really late right” Nial asked both
annoyed and amused? “Nial I need your help, I need you to do something for me”.
“Alright, how can I help you”? Soren launched into the story of Farris.
“Wow…your first assignment already…it’s just day two. That has to be some sort
of record. Ok I will make the arrangements. You get him out of the apartment
tomorrow and I will take care of the rest” Nial said… “Now go to sleep”.
“Alright” said Soren with a grin… “It would be so much better if you were here
to kiss me and tuck me in” Soren said wryly. “Don’t tempt me…I am tired and I
have company” Nial said laughing and then hung up. Soren chuckled and then went
to the bedroom and got a pillow, then went to the sofa and prepared a place to
sleep with the throws. He went to Farris’s bag began to go through the
contents. He was surprised to find the gun, but not really surprised at the
knife. He found a large notebook and opened it. It was full of writing and
drawings. He read the words… they were song lyrics and poems and he began to
weep inside at how beautiful some of them were and how horrible Farris’s life
experiences must have been. He didn’t feel bad about the snooping but he did
feel a little guilty at using a Truth Influence on the boy earlier. The drawings
were quite good as well. Several of them were almost gothic in nature, and many
of them had Celtic looking knotwork around them. Soren put everything back in
the bag. Then he went to sleep that night planning the next day.
Soren woke up to the smell of toast and bacon. He got off
the sofa, stretched and wondered over to the kitchen. “Well what’s all this”?
“I though making breakfast was the least I could after everything you’ve done
for me. I slept in a way I can’t remember ever sleeping. I don’t have the words
to….I just wanted to thank you” Farris said. Soren sat down, “You don’t owe me
a thank you…if you want to thank someone you can thank God. Now that smells
really, really good. How about we eat and get ready. We need to head out early
today”. “Sure thing” Farris said and brought a plate for Soren along with a
glass of orange juice and then got his own breakfast and sat down. “You better
be careful, a man could get used to treatment like this” Soren said with a
grin. The grin on his face was so ridiculous that Farris had to smile, he
couldn’t stop himself. It was sometime later that he realized that he hadn’t
smiled a real smile in a long time. Most of the time when he smiled it was with
an agenda. “You know…I get this feeling that you are very dangerous” Farris
said. “Oh I am, and make no mistake about that. I have this way of getting what
I want” Soren said. Farris tried not to smile but couldn’t help himself and
blushed. After breakfast Soren got him to take another shower and laid out some
cloths for him. Then he got his own cloths out and waited to take his shower.
Farris walked out of the bathroom in nothing but the towel wrapped around his
waist. Soren couldn’t help but stare for a moment with wide eyes and a mouth
that began to water. “See something you like” Farris said with a calculated
smile, and waited for the inevitable response he knew must be coming. He knew
that it was all too good to be true. He wondered what this guy would expect him
to do.
“Oh I am…” Soren laughed nervous and embarrassed, “I am sorry. I just
um… here are your cloths and I am going to get in the shower now and get ready.
Soren walked hurriedly into the bathroom, shutting the door behind him. He
tried to get himself under control but it was difficult after what he had just
seen. Farris looked amazing.
Soren had to beat off
swiftly in the shower in order to make himself calm down. Farris in the
meantime was wondering how long Soren’s good grace and will would last before
he lost control and demanded what he was obviously after. Soren finally came
out of the shower wrapped in his towel just long enough to grab his cloths and
head back into the bathroom. It was long enough however for Farris to see just
how amazing Soren looked, and for him to see the tremendous ink Soren had.
Then he
quickly snapped himself out of it. What was wrong with him. It must be the
royal treatment he was receiving. It was enough to make him think anyone was
overly attractive. He waited for a while, but soon enough Soren was there,
dressed and ready to go. “You won’t need your bag if you want to leave it here,
and I will be getting you a new one today in any case” Soren said. “Oh, alright…
thanks” Farris said. He followed Soren out and Soren locked the door behind
them before they entered the lift and headed down. In no time at all they were on their way, and Soren got his
first chance to drive his new car, a sporty silver beauty.
They shopped and
Farris tried to talk Soren out of most of the purchases, but Soren wasn’t even
pretending to listen. By the end of the day he had a new wardrobe. “So what is
your favorite color” Soren asked Farris. “Well actually my very favorite color
in the entire world is that blue…like the blue of your kitchen island” Farris
answered. “Oh I see…well good. Hey I need to drop you off at the next store and
run somewhere really quick. I will be back in a few moments. Don’t leave the
store. I don’t want to loose you”. “This is it then isn’t it…you are ditching
me…you aren’t coming back. At least I got a free shower out it” Farris said.
“No Farris, it isn’t like that at all. I need to go get some things. Now here
is my credit card and purchase any cloths you like from this store”. Farris
looked at the card in his hand astonished. Soren had made a duplicate before
they left the house. Farris got out and went inside the store stunned. Soren
went a few streets away. There was an instrument store. He went inside and a
man began showing him around. It didn’t take as long as he had thought it would
to find the things he wanted. The manager helped him with his purchases which
were several. Soren pretended to have to go to the restroom and took his
purchases with him. Once inside he locked the door and then opened the boxes.
He took out his scepter which he had hidden inside his sleeve before he had
left the apartment. He took the stone out of his necklace and placed it inside
the holder on the scepter again. He pointed his scepter at each item one at a
time and then began giving them a slight makeover. When he was finished he put
everything back into their packages and loaded his vehicle up, then he swung by
another store and bought a set of keys. When he was inside the car he pulled
out his house key and his car key and made the new blank keys into duplicates.
Then he went back to the store to find Farris walking around with a very small
basket of things. “Well this won’t do at all, what’s a matter do we need to
find another store…does this one lack clothes that you like” Soren asked? “No,
it’s fine…I just feel really bad about all of this and I don’t want to take
advantage of your generosity”. “Forget about that. Find all of the things you
like and let’s get them”. Farris wanted to protest but somehow knew he would be
fighting a losing battle. They went to lunch afterwards; they ate at an
oriental restaurant because Farris had mentioned that he liked Asian food.
During lunch Soren got a phone call. “Thank Nial…I uh…I owe you one”. “You owe
me a big one…and make no mistake…you will make it up to me” Nial said laughing
and hung up on a blushing Soren. Soren and Farris headed back to the apartment
and Soren convinced Farris to just grab the bags in the back seat and leave
everything in the trunk to him. Farris nodded and took the key and grabbed the
bags out of the seat. He got into the lift and headed up. When he arrived inside
he sat the bags down and headed to use the bathroom when the sight of something
stopped him dead in his tracks. There against the far wall of the apartment was
a shiny black piano standing flush against the wall. It wasn’t there the day
before he was sure of it. He went to it and opened it and began to lightly
brush his fingers across the keys. “I see you found one of your presents” a
voice behind him said. He turned to see Soren and he just started crying. He
couldn’t help it; the tears just started to flow. “How did you…when did…who”?
“One question at a time please” Soren said. “The how is something I don’t know,
the when is right after we left, and the who is Nial…a dear friend of mine”.
“This is too much…I don’t know what to…I don’t …” he triped over all of the
words he wanted to say, “I can’t take this” Farris said. “Yes you can Farris,
and you will. Look I have been blessed with an abundance of money; that is to
say it was put into my safe keeping to use as I please. The money isn’t really
mine though, it belongs to …well let’s say that it belongs to goodness and it
is to be used to help make dreams come true and do good things for the right
people”. Farris just tried to breathe but was having trouble. “Your music
teacher arrives tomorrow for your first lesson. He will teach you anything you
want to know about music and singing, and if you listen to him you will learn
to be a great musician. You will need these to though” Soren said and pointed
at things piled by the couch. There were two guitar cases, an amp, two stands,
and a bag. The amp was electric blue. He went to the bag not even wanting to
look inside the cases yet for fear that he might start crying again. In the bag
there were a couple of straps. One was made of black cloth, and one was made out
of black leather. They both had electric blue Celtic knotwork on them. There
were also several picks. One electric blue pick, looking like it was made of
iridescent stone was connected to a cord, and had a silver metal image on it. When
the light caught the pendant, it had faint designs of musical notes on it. The
metal image was of a sacred heart, and on the back was a strange symbol. “I
wanted you to have music to carry with you wherever you go, and the symbol of
the sacred heart represents the light love which I believe to be the most
powerful force ever known to creation”. What Soren didn’t tell him was that he
had imbued the pendent with certain virtues and blessings. “What is this other
symbol” Farris asked? “It is a sigil from an ancient language, it stands for
the letter F, and underneath it is the septagram. The seven pointed star means
many things…all of them good”. Soren took the necklace and held it up, “May I
put it on you? Will you wear it for me” Soren asked Farris? “Yes, I will”
Farris replied and Soren walked behind him and put the necklace on him from
behind. Farris shivered when he felt Soren’s fingers brush against him and
electricity shot through his whole body. “Now open the cases and look at your
new instruments” Soren said. Farris bent down and opened the cases carefully.
When he saw what was inside he drew a sharp breath that caught in his throat.
Inside of the first case was an acoustic guitar. It was electric blue and had
Celtic knotwork on it. Running down the neck were designs underneath the
strings. Alternating dots and stars. Each star was different. There was a six
pointed star, a seven pointed star, and a nine pointed star. It was the most
beautiful thing he had ever seen. He reached out to touch it. It had been made
just for him, like Soren knew him…knew what he dreamed of.
The next case housed an electric guitar, again in electric
blue and black like the first. This guitar however had alternating sacred
hearts and skulls and cross bones running down the neck. On the actual face of
the guitar was a celtic cross surrounded by flaming skulls.
(The blue amp.)
(The leather strap)
(the cloth strap)
(the basic idea of the acoustic guitar)
(the basic idea of the electric guitar)
(The basic idea of the talisman Soren gave Farris)
He took it out and turned it over looking at it. It was even
more beautiful than the first. It was then he noticed that it was inscribed.
“To Farris, May all your Dreams come true” and it was signed “Love, God and
Soren”. In one day Soren had given him the world and changed his life. It was
like his own personal miracle; he must have died in the ally way and gone to
his own personal heaven, which was funny because he had never let himself
believe that heaven could be real for someone like him. It was like Soren was
his own fairy God-Father or guardian angel. The tears flowed again, but this
time he smiled through them. He set down the Guitar in its case and then went
to Soren and threw his arms around him not holding back. “Who are you man…who
does something like this for someone”? “Shhh, one day you will be in the same
position that I am in and I want you to promise me that you will help whoever
needs your help”. Farris backed away from him not letting him go and looked him
into his eyes…his very warm beautiful golden eyes and meaning it with every
fiber of his being said, “I promise I will”. “Good then. There is one last
thing about the guitars…I want you to take a week and pick your favorite quote
in the world…something that means something very special to you. Then I will
have it inscribed on the back of the acoustic”. Farris smiled and could only
say “Alright…thank you Soren”. “No problem, now set up your instruments and amp
over there by the piano. Oh I forgot there are also a few art supplies in the
entry way closet for you in case you ever want to draw or paint”. “How did
you…last night, after I passed out, you put me in the bed and then went through
my bag”. “Yes…no offense. I know it was a violation of your privacy but I had
to know who I had let into my house. I hope you are not angry at me for wanting
to protect myself”? “Normally I would be furious but I can’t be mad at you
about that…not after all of this…I” Farris lost the ability to speak. “Alright
then, go take all of your cloths and put them away in the closet, then I will
get dinner ready…maybe you will play for me while I do that. Then later maybe
we can watch another movie”? “Alright” Farris said with a broad goofy smile. He
went and began putting his things away, but not before noticing that a new
small bed had been put in the far corner of the bedroom. Soren had got him his
own bed. Soren wasn’t expecting anything from him.
“Hey Farris, would you mind helping me tomorrow. I need to
get the house ready for tomorrow night”? “What’s tomorrow night” Farris asked?
“We are going to have some company over for dinner and it is the first time I
have ever thrown a dinner party…at least here, that is”! “Oh …well sure” he
replied as he finished putting all his new cloths away; of which there were
many…and many accessories and shoes as well. When he was finished he went into
the living room and got out his new acoustic guitar and began to tune it,
finding it was already perfectly tuned. He began to play a song he knew. One of
the first songs he ever learned…green sleeves. “Oh nice…good choice” Soren said
as he got dinner ready. He listened to Farris play wonderfully. He could tell
there was room for improvement, but the teacher would help him with that. Farris’s
playing trailed off for a moment as he noticed a new
wallet on the table that matched his guitar straps; along with a key chain that matched his necklace, except that the metal image was of a music note. There were a set of keys on the key chain. Soren had made him his own
copies for the loft and the car. How could anyone be so stupid or so generous?
The tears began to flow again and he started playing again. After dinner was over they settled in to watch the two
towers, before turning in and they both drifted to sleep very happy and at
peace.
(Farris's new wallet)
(Farris's new key chain)
The next morning Farris woke first again. He wanted to give something to Soren but he didn’t have anything. He set to work on writing him a poem but that wouldn’t be done for a long while and wasn’t enough to say what he wanted to say. Then a thought hit him…one he never dreamed he would ever consider. An old foster brother that had gotten killed and who meant the world to Farris, was the one who taught him to play. Farris had truly loved and been loved by only one person in his life…his late foster brother Luke.
(Random guy from the net, Luke as I see him)
Luke had
also given Farris a ring. The ring was not all that valuable except to Farris. It was
his most cherished possession. It was what gave him his love of Celtic knotwork
and design. It was a thick silver men’s ring that was a band of knotwork. He
never imagined he would give it up to anyone, but suddenly he wanted to. He
fished the ring out of his bag a and brought it to Soren’s bed. Soren was still
sleeping peacefully as Farris approached. Farris brushed Soren’s hair off of
his face and the touch of Farris's skin woke Soren. “What is it…what’s wrong”?
“Nothing's wrong Soren, it’s just that you have done so much for me…I wanted to
do something for you. I want you to have something”. “Oh …what’s that”? “I want
you to have this ring. It is very special to me, and I want you to have it”.
Soren took the ring and looked at it. It was a nice ring. “What does this ring
mean to you Farris”? Farris told him, not being able to stop himself again for
some strange reason. When he was finished, Soren said “I can’t take this from
you”. “Please Soren…please, I want you to have it”. “Alright” Soren said… “Go
get me one of the boxes of extra laces we bought you yesterday and the scissors
from the kitchen please”. “Sure” Farris said not understanding but doing what
Soren asked. When he was back, he handed the items to Soren. Soren took out a
shoe string and cut the tips off. He wrapped the string around the side of the
ring to where it would hang like a wreath flat against his chest. Then he tied
the ends into knots and put the ring on like a necklace. “Well that is one way
to wear it I suppose” Farris said laughing his confused laugh. “Luke was
special to you…you are special to me. So I will wear the both of you next to my
heart”. Farris wanted to cry but didn’t want to appear like a huge cry baby
with all the tears he had already shed lately. Soren had changed everything he
thought he knew…about the world; about
people. Soren however saw things differently. Farris had given much more to him
than he had given to Farris. Farris gave what mattered most to him out what he
had… which was nothing. That was a true gift, and he hoped to be worthy of it
and said a quiet prayer that he would be.

Part 3 will come in time....
Terminology for Immortal Beloved;
Malachim; (Pronounced Malek-ee-im, or Malek-keem) the over
all race of the angels of light. Though each order and choir of Malachim
consider themselves almost as separate nations under one over all nation. In
the same way that there are many tribes of people in one country.
Mazzikul; The race of the fallen ones. Mazzikal, Mazzikim,
or mazzikin are alternative names for these beings. In common terms, though
common terms in this case are a misnomer…these beings are called demons. Because
this is a term humans are familiar with, angels have made a habit of using the
term demon.
Celestials; any beings who resides in the heavenly realms.
This includes several races.
Terrestrials; off world aliens or extra terrestrials.
Elemental’s; fairies: Nature spirits or nature angels. The
malachim consider them cousins rather than siblings which also suits the
elementals just fine. Both races are somewhat proud though not negative or
hateful. Elementals that turned evil are called the telazikim or in the
singular “a Telazi”. The realm of Fairie has many terms and names which might
come up in the story and will be added later. One such term is Oz, other terms
are the veil, the otherworld, Avalon, and Annwn (pronounced Ah-noon).
Aperion Animium ; angelic power phrase which means “reveal
spirits”, used to cause near by spirit beings to become visible. (Pronounced
Ap-peer-eon An-ih-my-um).
The Delphi ; (the dolphin
seer, dolphin rider, the world seer, or oracle of the deep hallow sacred womb).
This young looking man is actually very old. His once great race ruled the earth
in a forgotten portion of history now known only in popular legends. They were
a master race whose D.N.A. was made up of human, elemental, alien, and angelic
essence and codes. It was the dolphin people who held Atlantis. Though they did
not travel space like their alien predecessors they did have much of the same
technologies they had. They had ways of controlling energy, and they had lots
of knowledge of other things like time travel.
Ecclesium Angelorium; (Temple
or Church house of the malachim)
Angelicus; angelic
Angelicus datum recordium ; Angelic information / knowledge
record(s) : the angelic manual given to Soren at the beginning of the story. A.D.R.
for short.
Kavana; spiritual focused meditation as practiced by angels
and enlightened beings.
Emunah is utter faith, mature faith; the knowing beyond
faith. The faith usually only known to the denizens of heaven.
Dybukkshon; Possession by Dybukk; possession by a lost soul
or poltergeist.
Mazishon; possession by a
demon.
Tzaddikim ; 36 righteous souls that must exist at all times
for the world to continue to exist. When there are less than thirty six the end
will follow. So if one is to die, they must be replaced before death. There
must always be thirty six.
(taken from an online article on angels; There are the lamed vavnikim, the thirty-six,
the tzaddikim, the righteous ones. There must be thirty-six tzaddikim at all
times for the world to continue to exist. They are so fully good their
existence outweighs the evil of others and is enough to save the world. If but
one were lost, evil would so overbalance good that the world could not
continue.
These saintly ones are supposed to live, quietly mending the world, subtly improving the lives of those with whom they come in contact -- and to be so humble they don't even realize they are tzaddikim.
But they are not saccharine saints. Sometimes their task is to impose hardships in order to save a person from a terrible fate. Just as God had to destroy the world by flood to save it. They are not malachim. They are human like us. But more than simply human like us.
Or perhaps we can act as tzaddikim - repairing the world - and never knowing it, in small ways, for just seconds at a time, sowing a little light, for a moment creating light and not only dark.
The next thoughts I have are personal ones and hard ones. We all want happiness, long for it, pray for it. But sometimes we are denied it, maybe for periods so long it feels like a lifetime. Long enough we can feel angry with a God who will not answer prayer. Long enough to understand the feeling: Out of the depths I cried to you.
So much in life makes us want to cry out against any God who would allow this to exist.
So what are our choices if beg for happiness - but the answer the universe seems to throw back at us is: No.
Perhaps this is the time to consider that this may be our chance to walk briefly in the path of the tzaddikim, struggling to stay on the right path, having faith - that in doing this we are creating light. Having faith and joy that we take up the challenge to be engaged in repairing the world - even though we may not have the eyes to see it. Even though this light that may never shine on us.
After Jacob had an encounter with the divine, he said: "And God was in this place - and I, I did not know."
How can this be? Moses had to hide his eyes when God passed by or be blinded. If God's presence is so overwhelming, how could Jacob have missed God's presence? Perhaps we are more like Jacob than Moses - and the reality of God's presence is hard to sense. Perhaps that is why we are asked to say: Shviti adonai knegdi tamid - I place God before me always.
Perhaps, with time, if we sow light to mend this broken world, we will come to see that we can stand in a place where God always is.)

Perhaps, with time, if we sow light to mend this broken world, we will come to see that we can stand in a place where God always is.)
Mitzvah; a good / righteous deed. A kind action. These good
deeds help heal the world one step at a time. The idea of random acts of
kindness also stems from this concept. “Every time a bell rings an angel gets his
wings” is an idea that arose from this concept, and action as well. It is
believed by some Jewish people that God never stopped creating angels. Some
believe that with each good deed done, there is another angel born. During the
first war in heaven one third of malachim fell. There were still twice as many
good angels as bad. That number doesn’t mean that much anymore because God
never stopped creating souls or new angels. So now the armies of light out number
the armies of evil many times over. Though fallen angels however are willing to
do things that good angels won’t so they get away with much and seem to wield
more influence of people much of the time. Every mitzvah done is a great act of
light in the world that brings the world one step closer to becoming whole and
holy once more. Every mitzvah evolves the souls of those involved and elevates
the world. It is also believed by some that the holiness within a righteous
human soul supersedes that of an angelic being.
Celestone; celestone is a type of angelic stone from the
crystal city of the angels which is the angelic province in heaven outside of
the great city of Neo-Jerusalem .
In appearance it is much like aqua labradorite. It is a crystal carved out of
an AngeliStari (angelic star; an orb of light or energy or small star common in
malachainon, often created by angels themselves).
Malachainon; (pronounced Mal-ih-kaynun) the city of the
angels: the angelic crystal city where the angels live, and certain other
citizens of heaven distinguished among the saints. The biblical city of Canon was named through
its influence.
Enochian (pronounced several ways; ee-no-key-un,
in-knock-ee-un are two examples); the over all term for the multiple languages of
the malachim. Each order and choir has it’s own alphabet and language dialect.
The overall term for angel speak though is enochian. The prophet seer enoch who
had been a Delphi was named for the language
of the angels. All of the holiest and most powerful of human languages derives
from enochian; Aramaic, Hebrew, Sanskrit, greek, and latin all derive from
enochian. The exception to this rule is Gaelic. Gaelic was derived from
blending both Enochian, and Gaulisha. Gaulisha is the over all word for the language
of the elementals. Though much like the malachim, the fairies have many types,
tribes, and language dialects.
The Omphalos (Pronounced Om-foul-oce; oce said like ice but
with an oh instead of an eye sound); the womb stone: a most sacred celestone held
by the Delphi . It holds certain vast powers.
One would think that the fallen would be after it, but they must avoid it at
all costs. It can fatal to them. By fatal what is meant, is that it will kill
their semi-physical forms and send them directly to the abyss.
Rafaiem (pronounced Ra-fy-eem); common Angelic healing. When angels heal
through music and sound it is called Rafailium (Pronounced Ra-fay-liam).
Hallailium; angelic worship music. Common angelic music is
called Malimusicium. Pronunciations are as follows; Huh-lay-liam (or
huh-lil-lium), Mal-ih-muse-ih-key-um.
The human term Hallel for praise and worship music is
derived from the hallailium. The term hymn referring to a religious or spiritual
song that teaches the psyche (soul / mind connection) through the telling of a
story or parable comes from a mix of both of these angelic terms.
RoiFaiHeim (Pronounced Row-ee-fay-heem); Fairie healing. It
means Spirit-Elf-Hand. It implies an act of healing done with the hand. Most
fairie healers come from the Fei tribe, or earth tribe. While there are endless
types of fairies, there are four main tribes that all subcategories belong to.
Fei, Fai, Fea, Fae are all different spellings of the earth tribe. The other
tribes are Naids, Niema, or Niem (Water tribe), Jinn or Jinni (Fire Tribe), and
Shea (She, shay, shai, shae,; Air tribe); though among humans who know about
fairies it is common to refer to all elementals as shea or fei, though this is
not a correct use of these terms.
Celestilas; this is an angelic stylus that they use to write
sacred enochian script and holy symbols. Often they draw on themselves, in the
air, or on buildings and objects. They also write on people. Many angels have
personalized stili, in the same way humans personalize their cell phones.
Solari-Steeli; An angelic blade or sword, flaming sword,
Sword of heavenly solar light. Many angels have personalized swords.
Angelicistri; also called a mercurialis, this is an angelic
scepter, wand, or rod. Usually angels commonly refer to them as scepters. These
are also commonly personalized by angels.
The angelic bible is called the emunah recordari; the book
of faith, or book of angelic faith, record of faith, or recorded angelic faith.
A common term for any other angelic scroll or book; Agelicus Biblioa. The
angelic manual passed out is called the angelicus datum recordium. Each angelic
bible has one personalization; the name of the angel who owns it is inscribed
in the front cover.
The Celide`s are a sect of Christians, celtic Christian
mystics to be precise that malachim can turn to for help in almost all cases.
One of the only religious sects on the planet that not only know of, but who
work with angels on a regular bases.
Siblis Angels; two or more angels created as actual siblings,
directly linked not just by race but by much stronger bonds. Though all angels
commonly call each other brother and sister, these types of angels actually are
brothers and sisters in a very human like way.
Twin Flames; these are ultimate soul mates. Almost every
being has many soul mates they have the potential to meets and build happy
lives and relationships with. There are souls however that were created as
almost two halves of the same whole. These are twin flames.
Twin souls; these are a lot like twin flames but not as
strong, and not romantic in nature. They are two souls who were created as
siblings much like siblis angels. In cases where this occurred that means there
are four souls linked very strongly.
Meta-Essence; is essence of non human beings, often put into human D.N.A.
Meta-abilities; Metaphysical abilities.
~Part 2~
~ The Power of Music~
Rolli Westlin was not what Farris was expecting in a music
teacher. For one thing Rolli was young. He couldn’t have been that much older
than Farris. For another thing he was absolutely beautiful. Any normal
person would have been instantly enamored of him. He was tall, he had warm
golden hair with occasional strands of copper and brown. His eyes were Brown
with flecks of red and gold which made them some of the warmest eyes Farris
could remember seeing. He had arrived early in the afternoon coming up the lift
with a large dolly hauling several bags and instrument cases and a box of
books. Also on the dolly was a large white board and several types of stands.
Soren who had already risen and showered helped him get set up by the fireplace
and Farris excused himself to shower and dress quickly after introductions were
over. While Farris was getting ready, Soren got brunch prepared for all of
them. Soren filled Rolli in on the things that Nial hadn’t told him yet about
the situation. Soren had noticed amongst other things that Farris didn’t like
to be touched, especially near the ribs or on the back. The back of the legs
was also not a good idea to get too close to. Farris had never said any of it
out loud but Soren had noticed subtle body language and motions. How Farris
would avoid certain contact. It was alright for him to touch other people, but
not for them to touch him. He informed Rolli of as much as he could as fast as
he could before Farris was back and dressed.
(I see Rolli as Taylor K.)
Soren had learned to
not have expectations about most things so he wasn’t surprised by Rolli in
quite the same way Farris was. In many superficial ways Rolli was a lot like
Ethen. Their hair was close in color, though Rolli’s hair was more vibrant somehow,
and a little longer. Their faces were similar; but Rolli had angular married
with round instead of square features. While Ethen exuded sensuality, Rolli
oozed sex in every movement. There was something earthy and raw about him;
something almost flagrantly hedonistic. Whatever that quality was however was
balanced with something spiritual and good. If Soren didn’t know any better, he
would have sworn that Rolli was an elemental. It was possible that he had
Elemental essence mixed with his D.N.A.. The Fairies, just like all the other
races including The Malachim as the angels officially called themselves had
been adding their essence and energies into humanity for untold centuries. If
Rolli was such a person, and he did have Meta-Essence in him; he was living
proof that all the ages of effort on the part of the other races to help
advance humanity was indeed working. He radiated a beautiful auric light and an
authenticity from within. Rolli was wearing loose fitting pants and a jacket
with a shirt that opened to the solar plexus when he arrived. He had instructed
Farris to put on breezy comfortable loose clothing and to wear nothing on his
feet. Soren told Farris to use some clean night cloths. Rolli removed his
jacket, his socks and his shoes. When they began Rolli agreed that for the
first lesson Soren could stay.
They sat up short backless stools in the living
room which Rolli had also brought with him but had left in his vehicle earlier.
Soren relaxed on the sofa and just listened totally fascinated by what Rolli had
to say. Rolli gave the box of books to Farris and told him to keep them. There
was a notebook and some pens inside as well. Rolli wanted Farris to take a few
notes as they started. Before they really began though Rolli had some things to
say. “I teach people about music Farris. To be specific, I help people become
masters of the art of music. If all you want is guitar lessons than I am not
the teacher for you. What I teach is all encompassing to a degree. I expect
nothing less than total devotion to their art from my students. I expect to be
treated with respect and you can expect the same treatment from me. If you
agree to enter this than we will do these lessons four times a week for three
hours a day, as long as it takes for you to learn. I have only two students at
a time. At some point you may meet your fellow apprentice if I decide it is in
your best interest. I never have more than two students at any given time. In
this way I can devote myself to you and give you my full attention. Does this
sound like something you really want to enter into”?
Farris looked at him for a
moment and then looked at Soren for approval. Soren smiled and nodded his head
in encouragement. Farris looked back at Rolli and said, “Yes I want to learn
all I can, I want to be the best musician I can be” Farris responded with such
sincerity that Rolli had no room for doubt that Farris meant what he said.
“Then let us begin. I want you to take a few notes and then we began with some
basic information and exercises after I have given you a rundown of how this
course works”. Farris opened his new notebook and prepared to write down
whatever Rolli said. “It has been said that Music is the harmonic connection
between all living things. This is true! Music is an expression through the vehicle
of sound; of feelings, emotions, and ideas experienced by a person at a given
moment or a fixed point in time. The feeling or idea expressed may or may not
be true afterwards but it will forever be true of that moment. The origin of
the word has it’s roots in the word Muse; which in mythos is a “Bringer of Inspiration”. Music is part
of the power that upholds and sustains the universe and its flow. All of life
has music and is part of music. If you know how to listen and you step outside
you can hear the music of life all around you”. Soren sat wondering how a human
could understand so completely what music really was.
Rolli continued, “Your
homework after I leave today will be to practice the exercises I teach you and
do some reading tonight. Also I like all of my students to view three movies;
August Rush, Ink, and Immortal Beloved, the information for these is on a slip
of paper in the back of your notebook. So you will need to go purchase those
and watch them this weekend before next weeks lessons begin. We will have a
discussion about these films and the things they can teach us. Alright, so
first we will start with the very basics, breathing and dance. When I say dance
I mean basic movement as it relates to the flow. I am not expecting you to
learn ballet or tap or anything like that. Then we will work on your voice and
I will let you experience sound therapy; and once you have a better
understanding of sound and the power of sound I am going to teach you to read
music. Once you know how to read music you can do anything musically. After
that we will move on to instruments and that is when the fun part for you
really begins”. Soren watched Farris who looked beyond nervous but also
intensely focused and perhaps even slightly excited. “I don’t know if I am
smart enough or capable enough to learn all of that but I will do my best…I
promise” Farris said, and this caused Rolli to smile warmly. “Don’t worry…you
CAN do this…that is my promise to you” Rolli replied! “Now before we do the
breath exercises I want to hear your raw natural talent, and I want you to hear
mine. So I am going to play a piece of music and then sing for you and then you
will do the same for me so I know what I am working with! Alright”? “Sure”
Farris said and then waited as Rolli rose to get his instrument ready. He chose
the Violin and then he took it out of its case along with his bow and stood in
a relaxed posture and breathed in before beginning. Sound suddenly filled the
air with strange eerie beauty and even a feeling of power. From the first note
both Farris and Soren were totally enrapt. The piece started out with Spring by
Vivaldi and then went Rolli went seamlessly into Lady Gaga’s Paparazzi as both
Farris and Soren would later learn. When Farris heard the way the classical music
melded so magically into what he understood to be modern music a vast new
universe he had never glimpsed opened before him and he stepped into it
unafraid but with a terrible and sublime awe! The life he had led, never gave
rise to the opportunity to truly experience the beauty of the world around him.
Until Soren found him in the ally, only Luke had ever showed him that something
else was even possible other than devastation of the soul in a hell on earth.
Luke had showed him the existence of Love only to leave him in misery again
after he went away. Farris did not even know that Luke was dead for almost a
month after he went missing. Farris had believed until the police showed up at
his foster parents door that Luke had grown tired of him and ran away to live a
life of adventure; like the stories he always told Farris at nighttime. Tears
stung Farris’s eyes at the memory the music brought forth within him but he
held them back. Soren just had his eyes closed, breathing slowly and deeply
with a smile taking it all in. When the piece was finished Rolli didn’t say
anything, he just put away his violin and bow. Then he sat down on his stool
and after another few breaths he began to sing. The song was All Ye Fair and
Tender Maidens or more commonly in the folk hills of the south Little Sparrow,
the David Cook Version. When Rolli’s voice filled the air a new and different
magic seemed to settle over everything. It was as if history, time, sex,
desire, love, and heartbreak all cam colliding together in a single sound; the
sound of Rolli. His voice was both beautiful and masculine. There was something
almost dark or dangerous about his voice; some undercurrent of shadow. However
there was also light; a light casting away fear and inhibitions. Suddenly
Farris wanted Rolli to hear him sing, and he wanted to play for him. Rolli had
just given him a gift, and he wanted to give something back to him. Soren
listened to the story told in the lyrics of the song and tears rolled down his
face at the sadness there. Rolli’s song ended and he just sat there for a
moment looking at Farris and then at Soren. Rolli smiled at Soren and all he
said was, “The power of music”. “Yes” was all Soren could say. “Now let’s here
you Farris. First play me something on your guitar and then you will sing for
me”. Farris smiled and retrieved his guitar. Then he asked, “May I please play
and sing at the same time”? “Sure, you can do them separately for me later! Alright”?
“Thanks” Farris said and then took a few breaths before he began. His fingers strummed
the guitar and the music he made was ruff and also filled with a lovely feeling
of warmth. The song was Sarah Mclachlan’s Drawn to the rhythm. It was one of
only a handful of songs that Luke was able to teach him before he disappeared.
Farris didn’t have the chance to play all that often after Luke’s death. Luke’s
guitar was stolen from him not long after, but nothing would ever make him
forget Luke’s lessons.
Soren listened to the strange song and was pulled into a
beautiful day dream of being on a beach and listening to Farris sing beside a
fire while other people danced around them at the gloaming as the waves crashed
and rushed to kiss the waiting shoreline. Rolli listened first with his eyes
closed and then with his eyes open so he could observe first the sound of Farris’s
voice and then ways in which he could help him improve. When he was finished,
Rolli sat there for a moment before giving his opinion. “Farris, that was
absolutely amazing. You have never had any formal training to my understanding”?
“No I haven’t. The only training I ever had was Luke and he only taught me a
few songs before…” Farris trailed off. Rolli could sense Farris’s sudden
discomfort and continued, “Well Farris, while I do see room for some
improvement I have to say that you have one of the best raw natural talents I
have seen in many years. In fact the only person I can think of with that much
natural talent is my son”! “Really” Farris asked not believing Rolli’s words?
“Really” Rolli said, “Now play me a short piece on the guitar without singing”.
Farris played Green-sleeves for Rolli who listened with great focus and watched
with great intensity to see how Farris moved when he played, and how he held
the guitar. Afterwards he told Farris to sing. “What should I sing”? “Well it
doesn’t really matter, did this Luke teach you any songs just for singing
a-cappella”? “Well yes…one…but..” Farris said. “But what” Rolli enquired? “Well
it is sort of cliché” Farris answered. “Well who cares…. Cliché things became
that way for a reason. Sing it out loud and proud Farris”. Farris nodded and
then took a breath after setting his guitar back on its stand. Then he began to
sing again… “Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound, that saved a soul like me. I
once was lost but now I’m found, was blind, oh but now I see”! Soren was
listening and the beauty of it overwhelmed him and a volley of tears streamed
down his face. Rolli watched and listened again and made evaluations in his
head. Rolli couldn’t get away from a strange feeling listening to the young man
sing. Soren was suddenly filled with a strange sense of wonder as thoughts
began to enter his mind. “What power was
this boy given. I feel …I feel; I hear the sound of heaven in his voice. There
is something almost supernatural about his singing” Soren thought to
himself. When he was finished, he sat there waiting for Rolli to say something.
“You know there are dozens of words I want to use right now. Your voice is so
strange and wonderful. There is this illusive quality in it that pulls you in
somehow. When you sing I feel like I am …traveling, without moving. This may
sound like a strange word to compliment your voice with, but your voice is
…ubiquitous, almost other-worldly! There is something sublime in your voice and
I have no doubts that you can build on that”. “Oh, well that is good. Thank you” Farris said! Soren sat in while they began their breathe work, but
when Rolli started in with the dance and movement lessons he excused himself
and went to the roof.
Soren looked out over the city and something akin to
panic began to grip him. “My God….what I have been thrown into”? Knowledge was
beginning to dawn on him. There was far more to this young man than he could
have known to consider. “This is supposed to be my time to relax…what mission
have you sent me into Great One? All Father, please send me a sign? What am I
supposed to do to help this man? How can I serve him…serve you best in this?
Who is he…what is he”? Soren’s ears were suddenly filled with a strange almost
inaudible music. At that moment a voice from behind him took him by surprise.
“Hello Soren”! Soren turned half expecting to see Nial there, but while this
man looked a lot like Nial he was not. This man was every bit as handsome, but
his grin was even more cocky and ridiculous…or was it dangerous? Soren couldn’t
decide. The man was tall like Nial, he was built almost the same…perhaps not
quite as defined or broad. His hair was much lighter, and his eyes were steely
blue. There was no warmth in his eyes. There was coldness like ice and death;
coldness like a barren bitter landscape in a winter tundra. There gaze was so
icy it almost seemed to burn. His smile on the other hand was radiant and warm, like sunlight and fresh baked bread.
(John Barrowman is how I see Baily)
“Who are you” Soren asked confused and on
guard? “I am Bailiniel… Nial’s Brother, people usually call me Baily…feel free”!
“Feel free to call you baily” Soren inquired? “Feel free to call me”. Soren
didn’t have to test the stranger the way a human would to know that he was an
angel of light. As an angel of light himself he could automatically tell. “Brother
as in actual sibling….Nial is a Siblis Angel”? “That’s right…I can see why he
is so chatty about you…look at you…you are down right hot sex on stick” Baily
said! “On what stick” Soren asked totally confused? “On mine later hopefully!
For now though, I have been sent with a message for you, before I go and see my
Brother”. “Oh…what message is that”? “This is your vacation it is true. The All
Father wants you to enjoy your stay here. However, The All Power wants you to
remember that he does everything for a reason and you must trust to it. There
are many very important reasons Farris was put into your path. One such reason
is that this young man is far more than what he knows or appears to be! This mission
was entrusted to you out of all the angels in heaven and on earth and you must
not fail…you must see this through! Nial and I will be around to help if you
need us, and furthermore I am supposed to tell you that you are not only given
permission to do whatever is necessary to protect him, it is your divine duty
to safeguard him against all injury and threat! Nothing must happen to him, and
if it does…well then you are to release Divine Wrath on whoever does it if need
be... in order to protect him”! Soren listened with wide eyes. He couldn’t begin
to comprehend the importance of what he was being told. He was just a basic…he
wasn’t even a throne or cherub and he was expected to not only protect this
strange boy but dispense divine wrath and judgment if the occasion arose? What
in the all the worlds was going on he wondered? “Who
is this boy? Who is he really” Soren asked Baily? “That is not for you to know
yet. I don’t even know, but now that my vacation has been altered for this, I
need to go find my brother and fill him in”. “Of course” Soren said and then
watched as Baily rose a few inches off the roof and disappeared into thin air.
All Soren could do was to proceed as he had planned until something big
happened, and after the visitation he had just received he knew it eventually
would happen. When the lesson was over and Rolli left, they ate dinner and
watched the return of the king before going to bed.
In the early hours of the
morning Soren was awakened by a presence in his abode. “Who is it…who is
there…show yourself; I demand it by the power of The Logos, Aperion Animium”!
“Quickly Soren…he is waking up, cast a sleep on him again” the voice whispered
and echoed off the walls. Soren did as the voice said and put Farris into a
deep sleep. An angel appeared in the middle of the room. She was neither tall,
nor short; standing at an average height. Her hair was blonde with streaks of
white and pink in it. Her eyes were light blue ringed with pink flames. Her
robes were white, silver, and pink. She had designs down the length of her arms
from what Soren could see; and her wings were White, with pink and silver
feathers dusting them here and there. “Greetings Soren, I am Coraliel but you
may call me Corali, or Cora if you wish. I am the guardian of Farris, he is in
my charge; a charge we now share it seems. Fear thee not Brother, for The Lord
is with you and Loves you, and so that you know that I am of Light, I declare
openly to you now, that The Logos did become manifest on earth in the flesh and
was called Yashua Ben-Yosef”!
(Cora as I see her is Emilie DeRavin)
“Greetings Sister Cora, welcome to grand central… what brings
you this night” Soren asked tired and curious?
“Grand central…that
is funny and apropos…I approve! I guess it has been busy around here today. I manifest
on this plain now to inform you, that you must do something. Take your
Celestilis and mark him while he sleeps. Mark him with these marks; The Sigil
Star to help him retain knowledge of what he learns. This mark will of course
as you know, also help keep him safe and untouchable by the intangible dark
ones. Then mark him with Sigil of amplification. These marks must be made by
you…do you understand me”?
“Yes Cora, I understand and I will do as you instruct”.
“Excellent…well, good night then” she said in her soft,
trilling, whimsical voice. Soren was intensely aware how melodic she sounded
just speaking. He wondered how beautiful her voice must be when she sang.
“Good night” Soren said as she turned and took her leave
becoming invisible.
“Intangible dark
ones….shadow demons? What would they want with him” Soren wondered to
himself?
He went to his safe and retrieved the Celestilas and went to
Farris and lifted his shirt. Farris stirred but did not wake. Soren couldn’t
help but notice how pretty he was while he slept. He took his Mark maker and
drew the two sigils Cora had told him to, on Farris’s thymus gland beneath the
soft hallow of his neck, one over the other. They burned bright and then faded
to look like they had been drawn on with blue marker. Soren made a motion over
them and they vanished altogether from sight. Then he fixed Farris’s shirt and
sheet and put his Celestilas away and returned to bed wondering what that
visitation had been about.
The next morning Soren was up first and ready. He woke
Farris and helped him pick out a pair of jeans and a tee shirt. Farris didn’t
bother to put on shoes and looked over his books and his notes from the day
before while he ate breakfast and talked about his lessons with Soren. After
breakfast Soren said, “Farris I have to leave now, so I am going to run a few errands
while I am gone. I am going to go pick up your three home work movies, and then
I am going to go some places I need to go. I will probably drop by and see Nial
so I won’t be back till a little before dinner. You have the key if you need to
go out, but there are only three people I want in here while I am gone. I am
sorry for this inconvenience”.
“Soren, it isn’t inconvenient. It’s your home. Now who are
the three people allowed in here”?
“No it’s our home now, and the three people are Rolli of
course, Nial, and his brother Baily. This isn’t forever, just for the next few
weeks. I have some things going on that I don’t want you to worry about. I just
want to err on the side of caution, and make sure we are both safe”.
Farris blushed at hearing Soren say it was their home. “Ours….I have a home now” Farris thought
and again despite himself, smiled with true happiness. Soren didn’t know why
Farris was smiling but he loved to see his radiant smile. Farris never gave the
implied danger a single thought. He was used to being in dangerous situations
and his current living arrangement was far too good to ever consider giving
up…it was as Soren had pointed out his home that might be in danger and he
wasn’t about to let anything hurt his home. A thought occurred to Farris though
however that he never would have dreamed was even a possibility. If the place
in which he stood was his home, than in a way Soren was his family. The only
person who had ever truly been his family was Luke.
“If Soren is in danger…I can’t….I won’t let anything happen to him.
Nothings going to touch him…not so long as there is breath in my body! I won’t
loose my family again” Farris told himself with a strong inner voice!
Farris’s expression changed and Soren worried that he had upset him. “Don’t
worry Farris, this is probably all nothing…I am just being overly cautious! I
will see you later this evening, I have to go now. Have a good lesson and
listen to Rolli, he knows what he is talking about trust me”! Farris just
nodded and then tightly hugged Soren quickly before hurrying over to his guitar
to start playing before Soren could think about hugging him back.
Rolli was arriving just as Soren was leaving. “Good
Afternoon Soren, how is my student today”? “Oh hello Rolli, he is just
fine…upstairs playing his guitar”. “Right, well have a good day” Rolli said.
“You as well, thanks again for agreeing to do this and I will see you sometime
soon” Soren said.
Soren went by a store and purchased two of the movies that
Farris needed for his studies, but he had to place an order for the third film
as it was not a movie they kept in stock. They told him it would be in within
two days. Soren thanked the store clerk and then headed straight for the
Patrellis gallery. He arrived and Derek answered the front door and let him in.
Soren noticed that Derek’s face was a brilliant shade of red and Soren never
recalled seeing anyone blush that badly and then as he saw the reason for it.
Baily was standing behind Derek’s desk. When Derek sat down again he hung his
head low and pretended to get back to pouring over a stack of papers and
pictures. Baily looked at Soren and then smiled. He bent down and whispered
something into Derek’s ear causing him to blush all over again and squirm in
his seat. Baily let loose his broad slightly silly Cheshire grin as he walked over to Soren.
“Hello again beautiful…how can I get you serviced today”? Soren smiled
sheepishly, “Is Nial around I wanted to have a word with him”? “No but he will
be back in just a little while if you want to wait. We could go to his office
and have a seat, Derek here can fetch us some tea” Baily said and Derek rose
and headed to the back with a slightly rueful look on his face at Baily’s
choice of wording.
“I don’t know what you are doing to that poor man but it
looks as if he is coming apart at the seems…I have never seen anyone turn that
red” Soren said as he walked towards Nial’s office. “Oh I have just been
telling him a few stories” Baily said. “Stories about what” Soren asked? “About what he is going to be doing for me later. Now what did you need to speak with Nial
about…perhaps I can help”? “Oh…well” Soren said considering how he wanted to
word his answer, “I wanted to tell him what happened last night, and then I
wanted to see if he wanted to go to temple with me. I have never been and I
thought he could introduce me to the keepers there”. “Oh I am sure he will be
delighted to take you as soon as he comes in” Baily answered. Just then Derek
entered with a tray of bottled waters and two cups of tea. He sat the tray down
on the table in the far corner and then turned to leave. “Oh please don’t go
Derek, I was just thinking about how the three of us could pass the time until my
brother comes…any thoughts” Baily asked with a low chuckle. Derek looked very
uncomfortable and said “No sir…I am….I um…well I have some paper work I must
attend to” he said and then left.
Baily’s grin became even wider and Soren
looked on amazed because he didn’t know anyone’s grin could be that big. “You
remind me a little of one of the books I just read…and there is a movie that
goes with it that I am going to watch soon” Soren said. “Oh what movie is that”
Baily asked with instense curiosity? “Alice
in wonderland…or is it through the looking glass…I can’t remember exactly”
Soren answered. Baily looked intrigued, “Why do I remind you of that” he asked?
“Because your smile is as huge and strange as the Cheshire cat, and I think
perhaps for the first time... I have met a mad angel…you seem madder than the
hatter in the story” Soren said with a small smile. Baily bust out laughing.
“Oh do I? Is that so…well I have been on earth for a number of years and that
is bound to have that sort of effect” he said and rose to his feet. He walked
around the desk and then bent over Soren who shrank in his chair. “So how about
that kiss you owe me” Baily said. He was close enough that they might already
have been kissing and Soren’s head was dizzy from the strong and wonderful
aroma that smelled like sex to him. “I owe you a kiss” he replied confused? “Oh
no forgive me…it was sex on my stick that came up during our roof top liason”
Baily said with a smirk so cocky that it could have been called original sin.
“I believe you brought that up and I never said anything about it” Soren
responded. “Oh…but you thought about it…go ahead, try to deny it” Baily said.
Soren opened his mouth to speak but Baily grabbed his face and began kissing
him with tongue before he could another word out. Soren was dazed for a moment.
Lost in the wondrous feel and taste of the kiss. It took him a moment to come
to his senses but he finally did and gave a slight push to Baily.
“Hey didn’t
you ever here that you are supposed to wait for an invitation before you attend
a party”? “Sure…your eyes invited me” Baily responded. “Perhaps you could wait
on my lips to invite you”? “Oh they did” Baily said and went to try and kiss
him again before he heard a the sound of a cough. Both of their heads shot up
and over to the door to see Nial standing there with a strange amused look on
his face. He came in and shut the door behind him. “Now brother…you really
shouldn't go around teasing people when I am not here” Nial said, and Soren felt a
moment of relief. “Besides, you need to share when you start playing with a new
toy…you know the rules Dad gave us when we were younger” Nial said with a
calculated smile. Baily’s eyes seemed to light up and burn. Soren wanted to
shrink. “Did you want to call Derek up here so that we can share his toy as
well” Baily asked? “Maybe later…right now, Three’s company” Nial said. He and
baily both laughed. Nial moved over beside Soren and then bent down and kissed
him hard on the mouth. Soren’s head was back to reeling. He wondered how long
it would take him to get used to his human senses again.
“Let’s say I agree to
play this mad game of yours” Soren said… “You understand that I am not ready to
have actual sex yet right” he asked the two brothers, wanting to clarify? “Oh
that’s fine…there are lots of things we can do besides that” Nial said and then
cut off any other statements with another kiss. Soon Soren was being hauled up
and put on top of Nials desk and was being kissed alternately by the two men. Soren’s
cloths began disappearing and soon he was naked... and so were the two men. Nial
and Baily both began to massage Soren’s naked body causing him to get so hard
that every pulse of his heart could be felt in his cock which throbbed to the
rhythm. Baily decided the floor would be more practical and so Nial helped him
pull Soren off the desk and then pull him to the ground. Soren was soon being
stroked by Nial who was behind him kissing his neck, While Baily presented his cock to Soren’s
lips. Soren looked up at Baily who was smirking down at him with his hot smile
and cold eyes. Soren bent forward and kissed the head of Baily’s dick before taking it into
his hungry mouth. Nial was busy rubbing his swollen phallus between Soren’s
hard round ass cheeks. Soren knew that Nial wouldn’t try to penetrate him; he
had given him his word. Baily gasped in happy surprise not thinking that Soren
would be so adept at pleasing a man. This arrangement lasted several long minutes more until Nial and Baily switched places. This new arrangement lasted a little less time.
Soon Nial and Baily had Soren laying on his back and they were both giving him
the oral royal treatment. Soren was writhing in so much pleasure he didn’t know
if he would last. Nial muttered something to Baily whose eyes lit up wickedly…
“Really…Awesome”! Nail and Baily proceeded to get on their knees and aim their
swollen cocks right at Soren’s face. Soren knew what was coming and the thought
excited him. He opened his mouth and soon Nail and then Baily were dumping
their plentiful loads into his mouth. He greedily swallowed all of it and then
two men were still panting and moaning several minutes later. Soren went back
to work on their cocks one at a time, milking as much cum out of them as
possible. They both tasted of salty sweetness, though Baily’s was a touch more
salty than Nial’s. Soren guessed that he must drink alcohol more often; not
that Baily’s juice was bad; it was very good actually. Soren began beating
himself off frantically but Nial and Baily removed his hands and held them
down. Nial went to work on Soren’s achingly hard cock, while Baily spread apart
Soren’s legs and began to rim him. Soren nearly went flying off the ground at
feeling a tongue on such a sensitive area. He let out a sound of pleasure that
was almost a scream. Soren didn’t last long with this kind of intense double
attention and told them he was going to cum soon. Nial and Baily both went back
to work on his cock and soon Soren was spraying his load into the air and onto his stomach and chest; and
Nial and Baily were lapping it off of him.
When it was over the three of them laid naked and panting,
holding each other in happy afterglow. Soren was in the middle with one brother
on each side of him. He thought about how arousing it had been to be taken by
two such huge strong men. When afterglow faded they all got cleaned up and
dressed again. Soren took several large swigs of water and then drank some
chocolate milk that Nail kept in his office mini-fridge, hidden in a cabinet. Both
men took turns kissing Soren deeply and passionately. Then Soren asked what Nial had told Baily earlier... "Oh that...I told him that you liked to swallow" Nial said. Soren's cheeks blazed red again and Baily kissed his cheek and said, "And you are so good at it...I hope we get to play again soon"!
Soren explained everything to Nial after their tryst in the
office and Nial grabbed his coat and escorted Soren out of the gallery and into
his S.U.V. after saying goodbye to Baily; While Baily who was always ready for
more action turned his full attention to a newly flustered Derek. It took
twenty minutes to drive to the church and when they arrived Soren could immediately
feel the difference in the energy of the atmosphere surrounding the site. The Temple , or The Ecclesium
as Soren’s people called it had obviously been a catholic cathedral at one
point. Soren took a moment after getting out to enjoy the feel and the beauty
of the place. The building was old, large, and lovely. The grounds were obviously
well kept. The Main building was the sanctuary, but there were multiple
building there and then Soren realized that once it must have housed both a monastery
and a convent. The extra buildings were on opposite sides of the sanctuary.
Then it appeared to Soren as he walked looking through the distant spaces that
there might be more building behind the sanctuary. The architecture was Gothic
looking in style. Stone angels and gargoyles adorned the roof and the spires.
Soren could feel all the many invisible Sigils drawn permanently onto and into
this place. He walked beside Nial and tried to match his long stride. Nial ran
a few steps ahead when they neared the entrance and opened the door for Soren
who thanked him and blushed ever so slightly at the attention.
The Inside of the place was not Cathedral like in the
traditional sense. There were places to kneel and pray of course, and Blessed
Water at the entrance which would have been usual enough in a catholic church; but anyone could tell the inside décor had been gutted and redone to suit the
tastes of the current occupants. The floors where dark, and the walls were
brilliant white creating a very stark contrast. There were icon’s but the icons
were very different looking to the normal catholic icons found in a church.
Instead of saints there were angel statues everywhere. The walls were covered
here and there with brightly colored paintings or tapestries. The scenes they
depicted were all the scenes from the bible that included angels. At the front
of the sanctuary was a stage with an alter. The alter was made of white marble.
A bright blue violet cloth adorned the top. Ritual items including a silver
chalice and a golden plate were displayed on the top. On the side was a small
golden stand which held a book. not far from the alter to the left side of the stage was a clear acrylic pulpit that looked like it was carved from crystal. Behind the alter there was a shrine but instead
of a statue icon, there was a simple white flag hanging down which had a symbol on
it. The symbol was an adorned Trinity knot which represented Elohim. Above the flag was an extremely large round window. Around the outer edges
were colored shapes of glass, the majority of the middle was clear, but in the
very center there was a small stone set in the glass. It was a celestone, like
the one around Soren’s neck and Nial’s wrist. Then Soren finally noticed that
on both sides of the alter stood two people. The four youths were not average
looking and there was something not human about them, but they were not angels
either Soren instinctively knew. Soren placed his hand in the water at the same
time as Nial, and then they both anointed their heads with the water, before rubbing their hands together, making their hands clean. On the outsides of the pews
against the wall were stands holding candles and incense sticks. The perfume
from the incense soothed Soren immediately. Soren looked up at the ceiling and
saw that it was covered though not totally with several large panels of art.
The sections without art were stark white again. Hanging from the ceiling down
on thin chains were several large objects that Soren finally realized were
giant faceted crystals. Rainbow streaks of light were being thrown all over the
place. Soren finally realized that this place was meant to be a mortal world
manifestation of their temple in the crystal city.
A tall very attrctive man walked out from some hidden place
behind the stage. Soren had not guessed at what he might look like, but the way
in which he was dressed was not like a human priest and Soren wondered about
that. Anyone could tell this man must be the attending priest here, but a human
walking into this place would have been confused. The man was wearing tight
leather pants. His cassock was not usual. It connected in the middle and the
man whore no type of collar. In fact he wore no shirt underneath, exposing a good
portion of his torso. His chest seemed well formed, and his stomach displayed a
slight trail of fine dark hair running down though no hair appeared on his
chest. A large angelic sigil was placed right in the center of his chest and on
his wrist there was a band with a celestone much like Nial's. The Man’s face was
sharp and pretty with, and sprinkled with what humans called five o’clock
shadow, though Soren didn’t get the reference at all. His hair was a little
longer than Soren’s and was a shade of brown so light that it might considered
dark blonde. As the man walked forward Soren noticed both his large bare feet
and the sizable bulge in his leather pants. It seemed all angels liked to endow
themselves well when they came to earth. He didn’t appear to be as big as Nial
or Baily though. Around the man’s neck there was an angelic rosary. There was
no crucifix but a Celtic cross instead and the ornament in the center was a Nonogram,
the nine pointed angelic star. The beads were purple and separated by silver
chain. “Greetings Brother Nial” said the man! “Greetings Reverend Timisen” Nial
responded. “And who do you bring with you today”? “This is Soren Brother….Soren
this is our resident priest Timisen James Gregorian” Soren and the priest eyed
each other for a moment as if assessing each other and then Soren smiled and
held out his hand, “Greetings Reverend Timisen…how are you”? “I am fine thank
you” he replied as he shook Soren’s hand. “Is this your first time to the
ecclesium because I don’t recall seeing you before…I would have noticed you” he
asked warmly”? “Yes, I just arrived not long ago” Soren answered. “And how are
you finding things”? “Things seem really great thus far” Soren said before Nial
spoke up. “On only his second day here, he got his first assignment” Nial said,
coming off like a proud father whose son just won an award! “Is that so…well
that is impressive…odd, but impressive. Well if I can help you in any way,
please let me know…I will do my best to help; I will leave you now to pray; if
you want to stay for service…mass is in an hour”. “However just as the priest
turned to go a young man came and whispered in his ear causing a look of shock
and suspicion to come over the man’s face. He looked at Nail and Soren oddly
for a moment and then said, “Soren why don’t you take a few minutes and pray I
need to have a word with Nial”. “Oh alright Soren said and then headed over to
the kneeling bench to light a candle and pray. “I thought you might want a
word” Nial said.
(Timisen as I see him)
Soren went to one of the stands of candles. He knelt down
and began to focus his mind in Kavana, the deep form of angelic worshipful meditation. He took a stick that was laying on the stand and used
an already burning candle to light the end and then used the stick to light a
candle. After blowing out the end of the stick he began to pray. First he said
a prayer of protection for Farris and all of his new friends, and then he just
let his mind become fully open to the divine presence as he began to thank The
All-Father… giving him lauds and telling him how much he loved him. He began to
sing his Hallailium, and his voice started filling up the sanctuary with the most beautiful
sounding music. He was so lost in worship, that he didn’t notice the crowd that
was gathering behind him. After all it was customary for angels to sing lauds
to God. He wasn’t aware of the beauty of his own voice. Though, angels never
realized how beautiful their own voices were. It was well known amongst the
choirs that the beauty and power of an angels voice was directly correlated to
how deep their Emunah; their Faith and connection with the creator was... and thus indicated how holy they
were when compared to their fellow angels around them. It wasn’t about pride or
ego; nor was it something an angel could even strive for out of pride. It also had nothing to do with rank or status. It just happened... that
the beauty of their voices evolved the closer they got to The Creator in deep
abiding love and devoted service. Soren didn’t understand that his voice was
beyond noticeable when compared to other angels, including many of The
Seraphim; the angels of music themselves. The alter attendants and their mates,
Nial, The Priest, The Priestess, their mates, and a large group of other people
gathered to listen not believing the magnificence of what they were hearing.
Everyone had tears in their eyes, everyone but one strange young man standing
in the group who instead of crying was transfixed. The young man turned and
looked at the priest and gave him a serious look and a nod and then took his
leave...practiced and quietly, accompanied by a solitary companion. When Soren was done praying, he came out of Kavana; got
up, and turned around to see everyone standing behind him staring at him with a
host of emotions running across their faces and tears streaming down their
cheeks.
“Oh I am so sorry I didn’t realize I was praying so loudly. I know my
voice isn’t that great but I didn’t realize that it was so bad I made people
cry. I will try to never sing out loud again” Soren said truly sorry and
embarrassed. “No...no brother, that isn’t it at all…in fact the opposite…your
voice is so utterly beautiful. I am honored to have one such as you in this
temple which I am keeping” Said the priest. Soren was suddenly amazed and very
shy… “Oh …well thank you. So is everything alright Nial? Things seemed to get
serious a while ago” Soren said.
Nial finally managed to shake himself out of
his stupor and then muttered, “No wonder
you were chosen for this” under his breath… “Yes Soren, everything is fine
but you have been summoned to an audience and it is quite an honor”! “Summoned
by who” Soren asked confused? The priestess stepped forward then, “By The
Delphi” she said. She stood as tall as the priest. Her dark hair hung around
her shoulders and her grey eyes were intriguing with a hint of pale blue. Her
lips curved in a soft smile and cheek bones were set high and wide. On her
finger was a ring containing her celestone, the very distinctive bracelet and
necklace she wore though were entirely different and stood out even more than
the celestone. Soren didn’t have a clue what they were made of. “The Delphi …The Dolphin Oracle still exists” Soren asked amazed…
“and he wants to speak with me”?
(The Priestess as I see her)
“That is correct” one of the other people
said. A short boy standing amongst them spoke, “please go to him”! “I will show
you the way” Timisen said and Soren looked to Nial who nodded his head in
confirmation and encouragement. The priest stood with his hand out to indicate
the direction they would take and Soren fell into step behind him. “He asked to
see you alone and has given no explanation, but he is not bound to obey any of
us. Only the voice of the Metatron will guide him, but you must never tell
anyone you have seen him alright. Only the higher ranking angels and those who
are attendants to this place know” Timisen explained. They had walked through a
series of long hallways and fallen into silence when they went out a back door,
through an open court yard and entered another building.
Once inside they began
heading for the back of the space and in front of the door stood a tall
muscular man with long golden dread locks, as the humans called them. He was
beautiful, but like several of the youths in the temple he was neither angel,
nor completely human. He was something else, though Soren had no clue as to
what that might be. The Young man held up his hand and the priest stopped
walking. “My Husband bids me to escort him in alone, and then even I am to
leave”. The priest nodded understanding and then took his leave. The man opened
the door and then took Soren into a large dimly lit room. “Thank you My Iron
Lion” a small bright young voice came. “Anything for you my Dolphin heart” The
tribal looking man said before exiting the room and shutting the door behind
him. Soren could here how every formal word was so thick with love that it
oozed like honey off their lips as they spoke!
(Leo, Husband of The Delphi)
“Hello Soren…I am Alexi”!
The young man walked out of the darkness behind the throne
like chair which was caved with all sorts of sea creatures, dolphins, and
mer-people at the bottom and the sides; while the back was high and carved into
a peacocks tail. He stood with his legs slightly apart in a firm stance, and
his hands on his hips. He was absolutely lovely. He had pouty shiny pink lips
and smooth fair porcelain skin, with Deliciously clear blue eyes. He stood just
above average height for a young man. The thing that was startling about him
was his hair and the manor in which he was dressed. He had pink cotton candy
colored hair. He was wearing tight bright blue pants, knee high brown boots
with lots of straps and buckles running up the sides, with a dagger stuck into
the side of one. His shirt was made of soft, metallic silver, big holed netting
that had emerald green metallic threads woven subtly through it here and there;
it was see-through revealing that he had a very nicely shaped torso even though
his muscles were not big like his husbands. He was wearing a strange necklace
similar to the one the priestess was wearing. His shirt… such that it was, was
sleeveless and he had on armlings which had no fingers but did have thumb-holes.
They were brown with brightly colored teal, golden yellow, blue, green, and
lighter pea green; peacock feather designs all over them. In his right ear
there was a large peacock feather earring hanging down. His eyes were done up
with teal and purple eye shadow, above
his eye brows were a row of pink colored stones and in the center of his
forehead was a stone shaped like an upside down tear drop that had a blue, teal,
green, and purple peacock feather design in it. Then Soren looked more closely
at the necklace and saw that it displayed a dolphin swimming under the waves.
From behind the boy’s ears running down his neck onto his arms and disappearing
beneath the armlings were tattoo designs. On one side it was peacock feathers
and on the other it was waves with swirls and dolphin patterns; and on his left
arm with the dolphin designs, there was a Triscal of dolphins displayed like a
crest on his deltoid. The sides of his head were shaved; there was hair on top
that seemed like it would hang just beneath his eyes if it wasn’t styled up and
to the side, and there was a long pink braid that hung down in the back which
the boy had pulled in front of his left shoulder. He was a stunning sight to
behold.
(Alexi, The Delphi as I see him)
(the basic idea of The Dolphin pendent of Alexi as I see it)
“Hello Great Seer, I am Soren”.
“Soren… what is your real name”?
“Sereniel”.
“Ah... I see. Well Soren it is nice to meet you, in my visions
of you…you were sort of hazy and I never knew that you would be so handsome”.
“You had visions of me”?
“Oh yes…many as of late. I am glad you are here, I was
wondering if my sight was starting to fail after these oceans of eons” The Boy
said with a joking smile.
Soren was put at ease by his smile.
“So I guess you are wondering why I have summoned you”?
“Well, yes of course…why do I merit such an honor? I have
done nothing special at any point I can remember. I have always just followed
orders and done my job” Soren answered him.
“Oh you stand out...believe me…or not, as you like! You have
been summoned here to be told a few things. I can not reveal everything to you
yet…but there are things you must prepare for”!
“What things would those be”?
“Listen to me Soren…here me…here my words”; The Delphi’s
voice was becoming distant and echoing. His eyes glazed over and his hair turned
aqua. The stone in the center of his forehead lit up, and so did his eyes.
“Soren… the boy is so vastly important to the future you can’t even begin to
grasp how much. This isn’t just about protecting one young man…this is about
safeguarding humanity and its future. I can’t tell you who or what he really
is…or will become…all I can tell you for now is that he is vital. He is also
broken however and you must love him through the pain and the anger until he
can finally allow himself to feel it. You must make him ready to sing. And when
the time comes….which it will; and he knows the truth of who and what you
really are…you must bring him directly to me. I must help him. Do you
understand everything that I have told you Soren” Alexi finished?
“Yes I understand…well I understand my instructions…I can’t
honestly say I understand the rest of it” Soren replied.
“That will do…now come forward Bright One” The Oracle
ordered.
Soren walked forward and stood right in front of him. Alexi
gazed up into his eyes. “You must be given three blessings to help you. Close
your eyes to receive the first two” Alexi said his hair having turned pink
again, and only his eyes left glowing. Soren closed his eyes, and the boy leaned
forward and put his forehead with Soren’s and a wave of energy passed through
Soren. Then the boy kissed the spot. After that, the boy inhaled deeply and
loudly and then used his fingers to part Soren’s lips and then breathed into
him. Soren again felt a wave of strange energy pass through him and fill him
up, after which the boy kissed his lips momentarily surprising him. “Now open your eyes for this one the boy
said and Soren complied. The boy took a strange device off of the throne behind him and put it on his hand.
It had a stone in it, set in beautiful twisted metal not only fitting around
the hand but making a swirling wave pattern. He held his hand up to Soren and
after a moment…a blast of aqua colored light exploded and went into Soren; and
Soren flew back almost into the far wall. He went to his knees unable to stand.
Many waves of rolling energy passed through him, and with each wave Soren could
feel something inside changing. With each wave he got stronger and stronger.
“What was that” Soren asked confused and irritated?
“That was energy from The Omphalos” Alexi answered.
“The Omphalos…that still exists too”?
“Oh yes, it is housed here, in a secret place and this device
allows me to tap into it’s energy at will”.
“Well what did you just do to me”?
“Listen Soren, I am sorry I went about it this way…but I
changed you. I had too…it was the only way. I changed your essential physical
make up. You are no longer just an angel, or just a man. You are evolved…you
are changed…you are.... more now! You are like me and the youths in the temple. I
was charged with a sacred task. That’s all I can tell you for now, but just
know that you are more than you were before. You won’t be hurt or harmed by this I
promise, and you must tell no one what has happened here. Do you understand…the
future depends on your ability to keep this secret and your ability to help the
boy find healing and protect him”.
Soren looked mystified but somewhere inside he felt the
divine presence give him encouragement and peace about everything he
was being told. “I don’t understand…I can’t claim that…but I do know what you
are telling me is true and I will protect Farris and keep this secret…and if I
can….I will help Farris find healing” Soren responded!
“Excellent…Well, please feel free to visit... it was such an
honor to meet you. Don’t forget…when the boy finds out what you are…you must
bring him to me. Leo my love, please come in…My Husband will escort you out”.
Soren nodded and the door opened. “Yes Alexi”? “Alright my Iron
man, my audience is up…will you please escort him out and then hurry back to
me”?
Leo saw the look in his husbands eyes and knew what it
meant. He was feeling quite amorous. Leo approached his husband and took his
face in his hands… “I will hurry back sweet spirit” Leo said and then kissed
him passionately and deeply on the mouth. The kiss lasted a moment too long and
Soren couldn’t help gawking…these men were hot together, he thought to himself
and felt a slight stirring in his pants. They broke the kiss and looked at
Soren’s expression… “What do you think Dear…he is very handsome…should we
invite him to join us” Alexi said with a naughty gleam in his eye. “Oh that
would be fun…but I don’t think he is ready to take on the likes of us yet…we
might brake him” Leo said with a wide grin. “Oh …well yes, that is true” Alexi
said… “Bye Soren…it was nice to meet you”. Soren whose cheeks were a nice shade
of scarlet cleared his throat before attempting to speak and said thank you for
the honor of speaking with me”. Leo laughed… “This one is so
adorable…I do believe he is blushing my dolphin” Leo said. Alexi laughed and
slapped Leo’s chest… “Yes... well go now and hurry back” Alexi said and walked
back to the place behind the throne chair. Leo walked up to Soren and took him
by the hand… “Come on angel boy…I will take you back to Nial” he said, and
escorted him out of the room shutting the door behind him. Leo walked in front
while on the way out. Soren followed in sort of a daze. On the way back into
the sanctuary they passed three men standing near by. Well one was a man and
the others were boys in their late teens. The man was sexy and had extremely
strange silver eyes, the boy holding his hand was tall and lanky with a black
leather jacket over a hoodie. His hood was on and his eyes had strange designs
around them partially hidden beneath dark hair. The other boy stood out because
his hair was an intense turquoise color. They all smiled at Leo and Soren; and
Soren tried to return the smile but was so drawn to the man’s silver eyes he
didn’t know if he had succeeded. Once inside the sanctuary again he found Nial
and the Priest alone except for the alter attendants and who Soren guessed to
be their mates. Everyone looked at him strangely and Leo gave him a parting nod
and then headed back the way they had came. Nial just smiled his usual grin
however and he took Soren by the hand after they said their farewells to Timisen, and headed back to the Nial’s S.U.V..
Once inside Nial looked at
Soren and said… “Want to talk about it”? “Oh yes, I do…but I have been sworn to
silence”. “Ah” said Nial… “I figured as much”. Nial drove Soren home in
silence, except for the music on the radio. Dusk was nearing and Soren had Nial stop
and get some hamburgers and milk shakes for their dinner. He invited Nail to
stay and eat with them but Nial said he needed to get back to his gallery and make
sure that his brother had not damaged his assistant too badly. Soren giggled
and then gave Nial a kiss before getting out. Nial just smiled warmly back at
him. “Oh Soren”, “Yes Nial”? “When you go to sleep tonight…please dream about
what happened in my office today…I know I will be” Nial said with his wicked
smirk and then drove off leaving a blushing Soren standing there.
Soren headed in and found Farris strumming his guitar on the
Sofa. “Hi” Farris said with a bright smile. “Hi yourself” Soren said with a
giggle. “I got hamburgers for dinner in case you still hadn’t eaten”. “No I
haven’t yet. Hamburgers sound great” Farris said. That night they ate and
watched some movies after discussing how Farris’s music lesson went. Farris
couldn’t stop smiling. “Rolli knows so much…I can’t ever thank you enough for
doing this…I wouldn’t even know how” Farris said. “Farris it’s fine, you can
thank me by becoming the best damn musician you can be…and by being my
assistant when I go to work, because seriously…I can’t stand to deal with T.A’s.” Soren
said. “No problem” Farris said. After the movie was over they headed to bed... but
after a while of laying there with a raging hard on, Soren couldn’t stand it
anymore and went to take a hot shower and relieve himself. As if everything
that had happened that day wasn’t bad enough, Soren had to watch Farris walking
around shirtless for half an hour before bed and the sight had him so horny he
thought his mortal body might explode.
Weeks went by and Soren and Farris had settled into a nice
routine. Farris had watched the movies and given a report on them to Rolli; who
was pleased that Farris understood the things that he had wanted him to glean from the stories. Free time was almost up and it was a week until classes
started. Soren decided he needed to go in and meet with his new boss. The
campus wasn’t that busy that day but Soren was glad he had called ahead and made an
appointment anyway. He went to the Presidents office and was told to wait by
the secretary.
After a few minutes the secretary rose and said “Right this
way please” and Soren followed her into an office room. A woman was sitting at
the desk and said “Thank you Patricia, that will be all”. Patricia closed the
door behind her. The woman at the desk stood and walked over to Soren. “Hello I
am Lennox Coffield, President of Washington University, but I prefer the old
term headmistress…and you are Soren Angelis I presume”? “Yes Headmistress”. She
smiled warmly at him and held her hand out to shake his. Then she gestured at a
chair in front of the desk and said “Won’t you please sit down”. Soren took a
seat and then she sat down in her chair. He glanced around the room to notice several
artifacts and items that he knew to be Buddhist icons. “So Professor
Angelis…what can I do for you today”? “Oh nothing really I just wanted to come
by and introduce myself. I start teaching next week, and I wanted to just come
and meet you; and ask if there was anything that you wanted me to be aware of”?
“Oh I see, well thank you for having the fore thought. Most people today…even
teachers, would not have known this was the exact right thing to do” she said.
He looked at her closely trying to figure out what kind of woman she was. She
was a little taller than average, her bone structure was quite angular and sever
in a way though they were softened by some rounded features. Her eyes were
incredible the way they were shaped. Her hair was white and very short. There
was something cold about her demeanor, but Soren guessed it was just her
formality and professionalism; her smile was warm enough. “Well let’s see…you
will be teaching Literature for now and a few other things like history later
on. I guess I only have two things to mention at this time. The first is…I
expect every teacher that works at this school to be passionate about what they
do, to inspire the students. If you see a student who shines out amongst their
fellow class mates…don’t be afraid or hold back from giving them extra time or
attention. One of my most ardent beliefs is that we are quite literally shaping
the future of our world within these young people here”. Soren nodded in
fervent agreement. She nodded back and smiled, pleased that he seemed to
understand and agree with her. “I guess the only other thing is a question I
have. I have met some pretty …shall we say high maintenance requests to get you
here, and I don’t mind acquiescing to them…but one seems strange to me and I
would like you to clarify why this particular request is the only one, that was
an actual demand”?
(Headmistress Lennox as I see her; Annie Lennox)
Soren nodded that he understood, “You are referring to me
having an assistant of my choosing instead of having the usual T.A’s.” Soren
said.
“Yes…could you please explain this request…I need to know
how to justify this expense to my superiors”?
“Well first of all there is no expense for you”!
“Oh…I was under the impression that we were paying for your
assistant”?
“No Headmistress, I am paying for my own assistant out of
pocket”!
“Oh…well that changes everything. May I ask why though? It
is curious after all”.
“Well I have had some very shady teachers assistants in the
past who have changed other students grades and things; and I will never go
through that experience again. So I hire someone who I trust completely now.
This allows me to teach to the best of my abilities and not worry about wrong
doings taking place right under my nose”.
“Oh, how dreadful…well yes I can certainly understand then.
Who is your assistant? I will need to get them the proper I.D’s. and
everything. Also I need to get visitors passes to whomever you might think will
be a regular visitor to you here”.
“Well my personal assistant is a young man by the name of
Farris. I can bring him by tomorrow afternoon to get his pass if that suits
you. There are also three men who might regularly visit me. Nial, Baily, and
Derek. I can obtain pictures of them tonight and bring them with me tomorrow as
well”.
“Excellent! Well I am just so happy to have you joining our
teachers here. There are a few still very dedicated and excited teachers here
that love their jobs”.
“Well now you have one more teacher like that, because I
love helping young people discover all the beauty in life and helping guide
them to their destinies” Soren replied.
“I will enjoy that…maybe I will call on you to get your idea
about something” Soren said and laughed and she laughed with him.
“See you tomorrow then she said!
“See you then, Headmistress Coffield” Soren responded and
then left for home, pleased with his new boss.
Part 3 will come in time....
