Chapter 4 - Old memories

"Gotcha" Thought Azazel.

His red eyes turned into crimson red as Noah fell a pressure coming from above, making him bend on the ground.

"Be careful, human boy, remember who are you talking to" Said Azazel.

Noah could felt a huge pressure on his back, even to the point that his bones were cracking, but, even in pain, he still didn't break eye contact with Azazel.

The smile on Azazel's face grew as Noah tried to stood up.

"Where…"

Noah's eyes began to bleed as his now red eyes, began to glow.

"Is…"

As he stood in his two feet, Azazel's snap his finger, the pressure on Noah increase.

His ears began to bleed and his finger's bend in unnatural ways.

"My…"

His body screamed that it's was on it's limit…

He needed to stop…

Just lay down and let it end…

Noah gritted his teeth and stood up to Azazel.

"My sister… Azael!"

"SPLENDID! MARVELOUS, NOAH AFTERLIVE, YOU ARE EXACTLY WHAT I AM LOOKING FOR!" Shouted Azazel in laughter.

Noah couldn't take the pain anymore and fell to the ground.

"Let's enjoy the eternity together… Noah Afterlife"

With that Noah fell to the ground, and his world turned dark.

...................................................….

"I will take Noah with me!"

"Stop it Alice! Are you going to go against our lord!?"

"I don't believe that our lord will kill an innocent child!"

"If you put a single foot outside of this house, you are not our daughter anymore!"

Alice looked back at the little kid who was trembling grabbing her hand.

She pick the little guy and, with a smile she turned towards the door.

"I do not fear the wrath of god, because justice will always come"

And with that, Alice left the house that she, for the past fifteen years, she called home.

.............................

"SISTER!"

Noah woke from his dream as he remembered the day when his sister took him out from his home.

Shortly after that, Alice began to work all day to provide food and a house for Noah, even though he was still a child, he still understood all the sacrifices that his sister made. He did everything he could to be a good child, he studied more than anyone, even at the young age of 8 years old, Noah was considered a genius, not because he was the most intelligent, in fact, due to his religious background, he studied at home, where his parents thought him… the way of god, no, he was considered a genius because he put more effort that anyone. From the age of thirteen, he began to work in secret, because his sister wanted Noah to enjoy his childhood, but he couldn't bare to leave his sister with all the work, so he began to sell scarfs and gloves made of wool in his school, since his classmates knew about his situation, they didn't doubt to buy him.

That year, for the first time, brother and sister managed to have turkey on Christmas.

"We thank the lord for all the blessing we have"

"…"

"What's wrong, little bird?"

"Why do we have to thank him?"

"Hmm?"

"Why do we have to thank that bastard for something that we managed to get with our efforts?"

His sister smiled bitterly and with a soft chop, she hit the head of Noah.

"Little Bird, first, don't call our lord 'that bastard', second, of course we have to thank him"

"Why?"

"Because, despite everything, we are together, and we are happy, that's the justice that our lord gave us"

Noah wanted to said something but his sister could be pretty scary when she was angry, so could only knot and enjoy the rest of the evening.

Five years passed since them, and everything was turning for the better for Noah, who just turned 18 that year

Noah finally managed to secure a scholarship and he even won a monetary reward, so they could move from their small apartment in Queen to something bigger.

Noah was coming from school after receiving the reward.

"I bet sister will be happy" Though Noah.

That was supposed to be the happiest day of both, sister and brother, life.

But God had other plans.

"BACK UP, BACK UP!"

"THERE WAS AN ACCIDENT!"

"IT WASN'T MY FAULT, THAT BITCH RUN TOWARDS THE CAR BY HERSELF! LET ME GO!"

With the sound of the ambulance and the police around Noah, his mind become blank as he could only see the person in front of him.

Noah saw the beautiful red hair of his sister turned crimson as she lied down on the ground with emptiness in her eyes.

A tear run on Noah's eyes.

"Is this justice… sister?"

......................................................

"Damn!" Shouted Noah as he threw the pillow to the ground.

He felt a small headache as he remembered what happen last night.

He turned around and saw that he wasn't in hiss jail anymore, he was in an old apartment pretty familiar for him.

"My… home?"

He looked to all sides and yes, this was the small apartment that he and his sister shared all those years.

A small sofa, an old tv. There was nothing more on the living room

He walked towards to the hall, there were two other rooms. At the right side, there was the room of Noah. And, on the left side, there was a room that he hadn't opened in five years.

He lifted his hand towards the handle, like he had due a hundred times before.

"…" His hand trembled a bit, before finally letting go of the handle

*Sigh*

He sighed and turned towards his own room. He opened and saw a single with books scattered through the floor. He threw all the books to the side and finally sat down on his bed. He laid down and saw the familiar ceiling of his childhood.

"…"

After a couple of minutes without moving, he started to feel a certain… acidish smell.

*Sniff* *Sniff*

He made a small grim.

"I should take a shower"

He took out his shirt and pants and went to the bathroom.

However, just as he passed the mirror and was to enter the shower.

He froze on the spot.

He turned towards the mirror.

"Who the hell…" Murmured Noah.
