"Okay so, let me get this straight," Liliana said. She was holding her head as if it hurt. "You, Caleb, and Adri are angels. Adri and Caleb were King and Queen of Heaven. You were Adri's best friend, even when you were alive. And Adri and Caleb died to save you, and the rest of Heaven, from Hell."
"Yes."
"Then what the hell am I!?" Her sudden shouting made me jump.
"I'm sorry, I thought you already knew. You are a protector."
"I know that," she said with a sigh. "But, I mean, how do I have these powers?"
"I'm not quite sure of that myself. I believe a small amount of power was taken from each angel, and given to you."
She gave me a questioning look. "What makes you say that?"
"Well," I said. "After Caleb and Adri were lost, we all seemed to be a bit weak. We assumed it was because our king and queen were gone, but now, seeing you with such power, I believe the power of Heaven took a small amount of power from all of us, and gave it to you."
"The power of Heaven? What's that?"
"We're not exactly sure what it is, but it seems to control our powers."
"What do you mean?" Poor Liliana, she looked majorly confused.
"Here's an example; unlike humans seem to think, angels don't walk around with feathered wings. We don't usually fly, we're actually just like normal humans. If we wish for wings, we say a prayer that asks for them. If our reason for them is good enough, they are granted to us, but only temporarily. That is what I did to come here."
"Wow... So you think this 'power of Heaven' thing gave me these powers to protect Adriana and Caleb?"
"Exactly."
"That's so strange-"
"Lil! Ai! Come on!!" Adri yelled from the school gates. She was standing with Caleb, waiting for us.
"Coming!" we yelled in unison.
"What were you two talking about?" Adri asked as we neared her.
"Oh, nothing," I said. Liliana looked at me, but remained quiet.
Seeing the look on Liliana's face, Adri asked, "Is everything okay?"
"Yeah, we were just talking about random stuff!" I said, hoping she wouldn't see through my lie. Thankfully, this was actual teenage Adri, who didn't have years of wisdom and perception added on from ruling Heaven.
Still not looking completely convinced she slowly said "Okay..." Then, she put a smile on her face. "So what movie should we see?"
"Oh!" Liliana burst out. We all jumped. "I heard there's a new movie based off 'Tale of the Full Moon'! It's about the girl's life BEFORE everything happened!"
"Sounds good!" I said, happy to be moving onto a different subject. "Adri?"
"Sounds good to me! Caleb?" She looked up at him.
"If you're okay with it, so am I," he said as he wrapped his arms around her. She giggled.
"Aww, how cute," Liliana said.
I laughed. "So then, shall we go?"
"Yeah!"
