mistress-sama@hotmail.com

The year is 8022 after Jesus' birth. The world is not what it
was. The 3rd war of Angels and Demons have began 7015 after Jesus' birth. Demons
took over the World of the Human, and turn it in to a Lining Hell. The one that
were on God's side, know to us as Monks and Priests, were killed at took up in
Heaven to help God. The one that were on Satan's side, were killed an took down
in Hell to help Satan. The rest, the one that never really believe in the power
of God, were left on Earth to suffer, becoming slaves to the Demons, but even
so... God never forgot about them, and the most, he never forgot about there
children, the one that were not responsible for the sins of there parents. You
were one of those children. A child that lost the one she new before 3 years.
Now you were on the streets, with no food, no water, no warm place to live, no
cozy bed to sleep... with no money. Only Demons' slaves could work, no one
wanted to take a risk. Demon's slave is a human with the mark of the Demon that
owns him. But let's stop the boring details here, and start with the story...
But one thing you must remember... You are not an angel, not a demon, not a human... You
are just a soul...

A rain was falling on the Land of Living and coldness was
taking in over. You were cold and wet, waiting for the rain to stop, under a
pail of boxes.
"Is there a place for me?" a voice came from somewhere.
You look up to a girl, about your a age, with short, uncut right, black hair,
and beautiful warm brown eyes. She was white and cold, so you make her a place.
You say nothing. You, yourself, were cold. She understood the sign and set down
next to you.
"Thanks. What's your name?" she ask with a smile.
"_____." you say short.
"I'm Katy. Nice to meet you." she say still with a smile.
You say nothing. You were watching the rain, how it falls in the puddles, how it
makes a perfect circles.
"I hope we can find a good master as the one I had." suddenly Katy spoke. "I
wish he never died."
You were still watching the circles.
"_____, where do people go when they die?" she ask.
You look at her. Why was she asking? Maybe she really liked her master, and now
that he is dead, she wants to know where he is. When your parents died you ask a
old lady the same thing.
"Good people go in Heaven, and fight on God's side. Bad people go to Hell and
fight on Satan's side."
"So my master went to Heaven. He was a good demon." she smile.
"No." you say and she look at you with fear in her eyes. "Demons and Angels
don't go to Heaven or Hell."
"Where they go? On a better place?"
"Nowhere."
Katy was shocked. Maybe, deep within she was hoping to see her master once
again.
"What do you mean by 'nowhere'?"
"They stop existing." you lay your head on the cold wall and look up and the
boxes over you. "They are immortal, not like us, but yet, if they are killed,
there souls disappear, and can't even be back. But we, humans, we reincarnate,
and live again."
"Then a human soul can't die." she ask.
"No. It can. If she don't have a body."
"When does she don't have a body?"
"When she is in Eden, the Holy Garden."
"So I..." she look down. "I'll never see him again." she whisper.
"Why do you care so mach?" you ask cold.
"Because..." she look aside from you. "Because I loved him." she say and tears
came out of her eyes.
You said nothing more. You left her crying. It was better to cry, then to hide
the pain in her.

Hours passed and the rain wasn't stopping. You were very cold
and hungry. Both of you.
Suddenly you felt something. A bad feeling. Katy felt it too. She look around.
Suddenly she grab you for the hand and pull you to run with her.
"Run!" she scream. "Don't ask questions, just run!"
You do as she told you. You were running from someone, or something, but even
you didn't knew from what. Katy look back.
"It's gaining on us!" she scream to you. You look back to see... nothing.
"'It'? What is this 'it'?" you ask.
"No time! Just run and don't slow down!"
You passed the main way and a car almost was going to hit you. When you
passed the way, you enter a dark ally with dead end.
"No!" Katy scream.
She look back but it was too late. It was there, at the other end. Now
you saw it. It was a dark shadow and with every 'step' it was making, you were
more and more scared.
"We are doom." Katy say. "I... I can't move. It got us."
"I have no idea what is she talking about," you thought. "but I'm not
afraid of a shadow."
You couldn't move too, but you said to yourself, that whatever is this, it
will not kill you... not here... not now... not without a fight.
You make a step forward and it looked like that broke the spell on you.
"I will not give up on a shadow..." you say and jump on it, but when trough it.
"What the...?"
"You can't kill it! Only and..." Katy scream.
"Shut up! Why do you stay there? Come on." you cream.
"I can't move. I'm scared."
"From what?"
"...From thanking over her soul..." the shadow spoke with a voice,
that was like in your head. "...Now I'll take your..." the
shadow grab you for the hand. "...I can take your soul, right from your
body..." he pull your hand, but you fall on the ground. "...What?
Why can't I take out your soul? There is no human that can attach his soul to
the body..."
"Except one." a male voice came from the end of the ally. "And I knew
her."
"...She is death from 6000 years..."
"But not her soul." this words made the shadow think for a minute, and
then, it disappear.

You look at the man. He was dressed like a lord from the
middle ages of England. Even that he was standing from minutes under the rain he
wasn't wet, this, only Devils could do it.
If you are going to ask... Yes, there is a difference between Devil and Demon.
To make difference between the two main levels of Demons they gave them two
names - Demons and Devil. Devil is a child of Satan from a devil or demon
woman. They are princesses or princes of Hell. Demons are created from Satan,
or a Devil. Or a child of a Demon/Devil/Satan and a mortal.

The men come closer to you and help you stand up. You see his
long, till the shoulders, black hair, on a ponytail, his ice-cold, blue eyes and
that handsome face of his. He looked young, maybe about 20-22. You stare at his
eyes silently. Suddenly he grab you for the hand and pull you closer. He was
looking something around your neck.
"Marble, what in name of father are you doing." another male voice came from
behind the man. He turn to meat the other man. "Wow, you really know how to find
good-looking sluts." the other men say when he saw you.
He was as tall as the first one, he had long, till the waist, white hair on a
braid, with crystal blue eyes. He had similar to the first one's face. You could
say they were brothers.
"Be silent, Rivelion. I was looking if she is not mark. Do the same with the
other one." the first man say.
"Oh, yeah. Sure you are." he gave a smirk. "Ok, ok. If you insist, I'll check
the other one."
"Rivelion! I'm talking serious."
"Ok, ok. I got it." he say and pull Katy. "Lucky we, she was but it seems that
he is dead."
"Ok, take her." he black-haired one say and look down to you. "Have you ever had
a master?" he ask you, as he was asking a little child if it got lost.
"N-no, s-sir." you say, scared from his ice-blue eyes.
"You do now." he say and smile gentle. "Come with me." he say and pull you for
the hand.
He was very gentle with you. You never expected that of a demon.

You go to his house with his limacine to a big house. It was
more like a castle. He ordered the maids to show you the rooms where you would
be sleeping and to give you uniforms. A French girl took you to the 3rd floor of
the castle.
"The name is Fiffy," the girl said on the way up. "You will like the masters.
They are not like the other Devils. If you don't know, the one with the black
hair is Marble, Son of Satan and Bazil I. He is very kind and gentle with girls
and he is very smart. He love to spend his time in the library. He love writing.
The other one with the white hair is his brother, Rivelion, Son of Satan and
Bazil II..."
"Wait!" Katy say. "Now many Bazils are there?"
"Now one. Satan have 4 wives which have the gift of element: Water, Wind, Earth
and Fire. The first demon-element, Bazil, was created by Satan around 7344
before Jesus' birth. She is monsieur-{Mister) Marble's
mother. She was killed in 2006 after Jesus' birth, because she betrayed Satan.
In the same year the second Bazil took her place. She is monsieur Rivelion's
mother. She is also dead. She died in 3499 after Jesus' birth."
"Is there a new one now?" Katy ask.
"Yes. But I don't know anything about her."
"I understand. So... what about Rivelion." Katy wanted to know.
"He is a little... how to say it... perverted. He is not bad, actually he is
very nice and funny guy as long is not spring." she giggle.
"I didn't got it." Katy say.
"Like the animals, I have the feeling that he get in heat when spring comes."
Fiffy giggle again. Katy looked a little scared. Fiffy saw that. "Don't worry.
He will never do anything against your will. But you better stay away. You can't
resist a Devil."
Fiffy unlocked a room and enter. You two go after her. It was a normal bedroom
with two single beds and a dresser.
"You will eat down in the kitchen, and the toilet is here," she how the door
ahead. "and the uniforms are there..." point at the bed, where were lying the
uniforms, "and I think this is it girls. Take a shower, put on your
uniforms and when you are ready, you can come down so that the master can mark
you."
"Mark?" you jump.
"Of course, my dear. You do know that demons mark there slaves?!" Fiffy say.
"I know but..."
"Don't worry. It doesn't hurt." Fiffy smile. "I'll be going now."
Fiffy left the room and left you too alone.
"Don't worry, _____. It isn't that bad." Katy say.
You say nothing, just give a smile.

After you take shower and put on your uniforms you go back
down. Fiffy guide you to Marble's office on the second floor. Fiffy give a
knock.
"Come in, Fiffy." you here from in side.
"How did..." you start but Fiffy answer your question right away.
"Devils can smell human from miles away." she say and open the big double door.
You two enter and she close the door behind you. The office was 3 times bigger
than your room. In front of the door there was a big window with red curtains.
In front of the window, there was the desk. The who room was taken from light
and a beautiful sense of flowers. The desk was really big, for about tree
people, but now was covered with all kind of papers and it was hard to find a
place even for a single person. Marble wasn't sitting at it. He was next to the
window, reading some papers. In front of the desk there was two cozy chairs, but
they were so big, that 2 people can sit there. Next to the wall, left of the
door, there was a big sofa with a short table in front of it, and two similar
chairs. Everything was from light brown wood and red material. Not only the
furniture, the how office.
"Please, take a sit. Just give me a minute." Marble say without looking at you
two.
"Don't worry, sir." Katy say and go to sit at the sofa. You go after her.
After less than a minute, which you thought it was an hour, he put down the
papers and go to you two.
"So, welcome to my home, ladies." he say with a smile. This smile of his made
you more nerves. "I'll give you time to look around, but now I better mark you."
"Uh... sir." Katy spoke.
"Yes, what is it?" he say with a smile.
"My mark is still on me, and..."
"Oh, yeah. How long have it been since his death?" Marble ask.
"A mount, sir."
"I see." he go closer to her. "Let me see it."
She pull the dress a little so that she could how him the mark on her shoulder.
"Oh, but he was a Demon." Marble say with a smile. "Don't worry, I'm a Devil."
he smile at her and gave her a wink.
"But I know that..."
"Devil's can mark humans whenever they want. They can't mark human that was
marked but another Devil."
"I understand, sir. I'm sorry." she say and look down.
"Wow, she perfectly know what to say, but I... I don't. I better say
nothing."
Marble race her head so that she could look him in the eyes.
"Don't worry about it." he smile. "I think it's good slaves to know things."
She smile at him back and whisper: "Thank you, sir."
He put his hand on her shoulder. She close her eyes. 5 second later he remove
his hand and she open her eyes. She look at the mark.
"Like it?" he ask her.
"What is this bird, sir?" she ask.
"This is a black phoenix." he say.
Under the phoenix there was his name, written with angel letters his name. {Soon
I'll draw the marks and make the plan of the house. I'll take out the
character's info, the years and the some other extras. This things will be
published or in special chapter, or on a web page. I will see. You can help with
pictures and if you think off of a character, you can message me. I give full
credit}
He go closer to you. You were scared.
"Don't worry, it won't hurt." he smile, but this didn't help you. "Can you turn
your back?"
You give a 'no' sign with your head. You were really scared. You could fill his
power and his the evil in him... it was big, really big.
"Please, don't make me do it."
"Why my back?" you ask.
"I think to put your mark there."
"Why?"
"Because I put it there."
"But you didn't put hers there."
"I had to put it there till the old one disappear. When it disappear, mine will
disappear too, and then I'll mark her back."
"But..."
"I promise it won't hurt."
He put his hand on your face and you fill how you are getting relaxed. The fear
in your heart was gone.
"Will you now?" he whisper.
You gave a 'yes' sign and turn. He, very gentle, pull your zipper down. You
liked it. Your heart was beating really strong. You wanted he to kiss you, right
here, right now. It was really strange. Before few minutes you were afraid of
his touch, and now you wanted it. You felt his warm hand touching your back. You
give a very silent mown. You fill how he was smirking. Suddenly a you felt a
terrible pain on your back. You wanted to move but you couldn't so you scream.
It took him less then 5 seconds to mark you, but you felt it like how minute. He
move his hand very fast, and look at his hand. It was in blood... your blood. He
didn't knew what was going on. You fell in his arms.
"Tell someone to bring bandages." he scream to Katy. She jump and run out.
He how you very tide to him.
"H-hurts..." you say.
"I don't know what happen, but I'm sure it'll be alright."
"Y-you s-said it w-won't h-hurt."
"I don't know what happen."
At this time the room entered the other man you met, Rivelion. He was caring
bandages.
"Kakvo v imeto na bashta ni stana?" he scream. It
was in a language you have never herd before, but... you understand him. {This
is in Bulgarian. I'll write things in Bulgarian when they are talking in there
'demon' language. This way I'll not have to think out my own language and
probably the most of you will not understand. What you have to know and
understand it will be translated. Rivelion said: "What in name of father
happened?"}{We don't write with Latin letters in Bulgaria, we write
with Cyrillic. But since I don't know if Quizilla support Cyrillic, I write with
Latin letters}
"Mlakni, glupako!" Marble scream. {"Shut
up, stupid!"}
You were getting dizzy. Everything was betting dark... dark... dark...

You try to open your eyes. You were week and you had
unpleasant feeling in the back. You open your eyes and see the dark room. You
sit in the bed and look around. On the wall where the door was, there was a
clock. It was showing 3:38. You look at the other bed, and see that Katy is
sleeping. You stand up and go out of the room. The corridor wasn't dark. There
was a light on every one and a half meter. You go to the stair-case on the end
of the corridor. You look down, but everything was quite. You go down and find
yourself at similar corridor. You wall down to see what is there, on the 2nd
floor. You look the rooms. They were all closed, or were dark. You pass Marble's
office and few meters away you see a half open door. It was bright in there. You
give a peek and see that there is noone. You enter this big room and close the
door behind you. It was big as the office and it was fool of books. It was a
library. You loved books. You look around the shelves. There were books from
2000 years ago and books from 2 years ago. There were books on all kind of
languages, but most of them were written by hand on demon's language. In the
middle, there was a big book. You go closer to it. It was a written in demon's
language. You have never seen a this language, but you cold read it. You look in
the book and started to read.

"And then, she spoke to the Lord of Hell: "Have you ever
look what you did? You wish peace, but you only bring suffering. You are too
blind with this war that you don't even see how They are planning behind your
back. Turn and see the truth. Kill the one that are against you, and keep the
one that are close to you." Then Satan look at his army and without a word he
left..."

"This is the end of the 2nd war." you thought. "Who
is this 'she'?" You look around to see why it was turn to this page. It was
only about how she convinced Satan to stop the war. You turn few more
pages...
"The Prophecy" you whisper the name of the chapter.

"The last monk, before he died, he wrote: 'She one day
will come to bring peace once again.'"

"I must find out who is she." you whisper to yourself.
All night you were looking around for a book, but the place was big, and since
there were books on all languages you couldn't find anything. The clock in the
hallway strike 4 times. You decide is better to go back. You go out of the
library and go back to your room. Before you close your eyes you herd a voice in
your head, like a whisper from someone. It was something that you had herd from
a old lady and than you had told to a new friend. 'Human died, but there
souls reincarnate.' You look up. "I wonder what my soul was when the 2nd
war started. Was I just a person that didn't even understood about it,
or... no I couldn't be she. She must be a angel or a demon.. She couldn't
be human." With this thoughts you fall asleep.

Rate and Message
Oh, I'm tired and I better not write anymore or I'll blow the stuff and spoil
it. Please, rate, message or both. I'll love to here what you think.

In the next chapter
Marble: "I'm not fighting on Lucifer's side. Nor on God's..."
Rivelion: "The Prophecy must come true..."
Marble: "I knew her, she was..."

On which side is Marble really?... Who is she and what is she?...
Is she just a fiction character, and did the 2nd war was canceled as
people say... The real face of Marble and his friend... Why did the Mark
hearted...

The answers to this and more in Chapter 2: Behind the Mask
