Carry On My Wayward Sons 7

Chapter 7

Fuuma, Seishirou, and Kamui stared at the figure that stood above War's corpse. From the dark jeans, the skin tight shirt and the white trench coat, to the soft black hair and bright green eyes.
"I'm an angel of the Lord, Subaru Sumeragi," Those green eyes rested on Seishirou. "I want to thank you for trusting me, both here and when I pulled you out of hell, I'm sorry about the marks."
"MARKS?! YOU MARKED MY BROTHER?!"
"Um yes, on the shoulder from when I gripped him tightly to pull him out of hell."  
Fuuma rushed over and pulled his brothers coat off to see two large hand prints branded into his shoulders.
"Cool, battle scars."
"SEISHIROU, THIS IS NOT COOL! YOU SHOW UP A YEAR TO THE DATE THAT I WATCHED YOU DIE AND NOW WE’VE GOT SOME GUY CLAIMING TO BE AN ANGEL—WHERE’D HE GO?!"
"I'm over here, I am indeed an Angel of The Lord."
"Then where are your wings?"
At being addressed by Kamui, the angel's eyes narrowed. "My wings cannot be seen by humans or demons. Our wings are only visible to humans when we die."
"So why did you pull my brother out of hell?"
"My Father says he's important for the Final day so I did as asked. Now with War gone, that leaves Death and you will need all your resources to end him."   
"So does that mean the angel as well?"
"Sure why not, let him come. Fuuma where’s my car?"
"Err…."
"Your precious baby is in the shop, it happened when we were chasing Pestilence."
"We have another car for now."
"Give me the keys, I'm driving, I missed it."
"Fine but I get shotgun."
"No you can sit in the back with your boyfriend, I really don't think it’s a good idea to have a demon and an angel in the back seat together."
"He's been back for less than an hour and already it feels like he never left."
When they all piled in the car, Subaru hesitated. "Um, are you sure?"
"Yes, get in and put your seatbelt on."
"Why does a seat need a belt?"
"So you don't go crashing through the windshield, Seishirou is more than reckless when it comes to driving."
That night when Seishirou and Subaru had knocked off in the front seat, Fuuma and Kamui had gotten out so they could talk. "He seems so different…but seeing him again…"
"You shouldn't let your guard down, I'm still not convinced that's your brother so keep that in mind."
