The arrival of an angel

Secret Garden

 

Chapter 1- The arrival of an angel

 

******

 

(Yoona POV)


At the lone mountain during a cool summer day, a bright light flashed down towards the ground from the blue sky. I felt myself flying through the light, my hair swirling around like the whirlwind of leaves. As soon as my foot made a contact with the ground, my heavy flying stopped. I gently tapped my whole body onto the soft crunchy ground with my arms spread out, balancing my body.

I slowly opened my eyes at my arrival, feeling a gentle breeze on my cheeks. I heard sounds of chirping birds and the music of the insects, reminding me of my old home.

So this is Earth? Wow, this is better than I thought-

But I scrunched my face at the sight of it. Even though I am on top of a beautiful mountain, my guardians told me that I have to work in a "city".


The "city" looked horrible from my sight.

I could see tall blocks of gray, lacking color. I could hear the loud and annoying sounds from the human's transportations. And worst of all, there was a lack of any green or nature everywhere.

I can't believe I have to live here for an eternity. I thought glumly.

I looked down on myself, checking to see what my guardians has chosen for me to wear. Instead of my usual snow white robe, I was wearing a white dress with a short-sleeved light blue denim jacket over me. Over my shoulders, I could feel a light brown strap, connecting to a little bag on my side.

Oh yeah! I have to open the satchel first!

I reached out my hands to open up the little metal button on my bag.  I flipped over the top to find a small book and an envelope inside. Curious, I took out the envelope first, ripping it to find a printed neat letter addressed for me.

 

 


Dear new Watcher, (Yoona)
Today will be your first day of working as a Watcher. One of the reasons you might be here now is that you disobey the one of rules of our Father.
Read the book for guidance and always report any acts of sins to us.

 

We will give you the best of luck.

 


As I soon as I finished the letter, I hastily pushed the letter to the very end of my bag, frustrated of my life-long punishment. Why do I have to do this stupid job?

Still, I reached into my bag again to bring out a small book. On the cover, the title reads "Guide for Watchers: Never reveal yourself! in big flashing gold words. I scoffed at the dumb title but I flipped to the first page anyways.


Introduction: Hello! Welcome to the beautiful Earth. As an angel now living in a new world, many things are different here.

1) We can open our mouth, projecting our words as "sounds" from our mouth.

Huh? I thought to myself. I can make sounds from my mouth?


Bracing myself, I breathed slowly and mustered up my strength to project my voice into a sound. Come on, this shouldn't be hard!

"H-H-He-l-l-lo?" I called out to the birds. My new voice was too quiet, barely a whisper, but I know I can do it better now.

Taking a deep breath, I opened my mouth wide. "HELLO!”

My voice was everywhere since then, I could hear it beside, over, and around me. My eyes found the birds flying away from the mountains, running away from my new voice. From my ears, it sounded like a pig bawling for more food

"Cool." I curved my mouth into a smirk and continued to read my guide.



2) You could feel "temperatures", meaning you can feel really hot or cold. But you can never get sick.
3) Your wings will be unable to fly here. Unless your state becomes troubled, it is most likely that you will never be able to fly again.

"No wings?" I read it again desperately. Flying is one of my favorite activities.


I kept reading the guide's introduction until I found a page where the letters were bigger.

 

 

 



You have succeeded your introduction! Go to the bottom of your "hill" to meet your transportation to go to the closet cities. It's time for you to find your jobs! Turn to the next page to find out a perfect job for you!

 


"The bottom?" I questioned myself. "And to the closest city?"

I looked beyond the hill. It was very steep; the trees were twisted, blocking the hiking paths. The flowers looked very poisonous, holding the colors of dark violet.

"Why did they have to send me to the city when I am at no fault?" I sighed. "I wish I could just fly down there in no time with wings."


After my complaints, I started to move my feel towards downhill, placing back the book in my bag. As I head for the twisted tree trunks, the trees moved back its roots, pushing it back to the edge as I passed through easily. As for the flowers, they turned their ugly vicious selves into beautiful fragrant flowers, changing its colors to bright blue and white.

I smelled the new fresh air and smiled. "Looks like I still have my abilities here."

The forest still bows before me, making a path for me as I skipped along the bowing trees and waving plants.
