Chapter I

It was one of these days where everyone would have loved to remain asleep. A
dark sky, clouds from horizon to horizon, hard-falling rain... All the picture was there.
Some people were still outside, working for their lives, depressed by the temperature.
Some were blessed by some supernatural force and the sun was shining upon them.
A few people were watching trought the window the drops on the window, fallin gently
on the ground. It was that kind of day, at the beginning of Mars. A few trace of snow was
still covering the ground with her white coat, now gray by all the pollution in the world.
Gone is the day where the snow was white, the water clear and the air, pure.

One of the few man who was enjoying this day was working.. again. From his point of vue
and nearly anyone else who know him knew that he had little time for himself. He was
working not for his life, he was still living with his family. He was working only to do some-
thing of his days, and to buy things he know that wouldn't last but still, bought them. He
was working in a simple store, at a miserable rate, working for the customer service.

Now, it was a routine... Always the same thing. Fake smile, hypocrite feeling.. He was tired
of his job but still, he would never quit. He knew that even if he was a simple guy, the team
of his job needed him, for all the work he did. He had a kind heart, never wanting to hurt the
people he liked, never wanting to disturb... Never wanting to lose their trust. He had a simple
philosophy of the world.. Help other people, since sometime, they're unable to help themselves.
It was simple, he never said no to someone that was in trouble. He didn't care about some
service that would come back, he didn't believed in the fact that a service must bring another one.
Often, that leaded to people wanting to abuse of him, and that often, he did get abused. School, work
money, friendship. He had given all of it for some people that was in trouble, and never he saw
that they weren't in trouble. Anyways... He was looking at the window, looking at the rain falling upon
the city like tears of angel, crying for the sake of the world... Crying for what is to come..

Angels.... Winged men and women, here to protect and nurse the world. It was said that they
were created by God... If they only knew the truth about them.. Born here before the first man,
here until the fall of the last living being of the planet. Nobody know where do they came from, some
are so old that would maybe know it but they prefer not to talk about it. When the young angel bring
the subject, they only turn the head, closes their eyes and say something about some really sad
story about injustice... Proving that injustice do exist in our world..

Someone else was looking at the sky at the same moment. Seated in the rear bench of her
mother's car, she was wondering what was going to happen to her today... Her life have always
being filled with troubles and problems, and she didn't even was surprised by what miracle some
incident could come off. She was imagining all the thing that had happened since the beginning of her life,
Closing her eyes and taking a huge breath, she sighed in despair. Her mom just looked at the mirror
and got back to the road. She didn't even care about her daughter attitude. She had lost her since
a long time from now.
