The pic. is supposed to be Flaw, but Flaw has blonde hair. So She's a little but different.... Presenting, Chapter one! (Gosh, thats a long title/ subject ^^)

.:rai the seraphim:. “I can see the end. There is no light. It was all a lie. All of it… Avian lied too… He was the one who started all the lies. I can’t change the past… I can’t change the present… and I can’t change the future…” ~~~~ Chapter One: A mission… and a game of BS You live in a world that sees change. Whenever something disrupts the course of things, the government, known as GRAVE, tells us to clean it up and cover for them. We are known as ANGEL. We take care of GRAVE’s dirty work. My name is Collette. I’m eighteen years old. My codename is Duce. I’ve grown up working for the regime. When I was born, my mother died in labor, but I was alive. My father took care of me till I was three, but he was terminally ill. He gave me to an orphanage. After that, he died. I had no one left. I was alone in the world. Then, the government took me in and took care of me. I was under a man named Lucas. He was experienced with blade, gun, and arrow. He taught me all he knew. I know every possible move that you can think of. He’s old now, so I’ve taken his place in ANGEL. I am now the leader of his squad. My squad’s codename is Phoenix. I have three in my squad, making it a low ranked, but were getting up there. The first to join Phoenix was Brett, eighteen and a great gunman. He’s the close range of Phoenix. With black hair and red streaks, we call him Blaze. Next was Emma-Rose, a makeup obsessed blonde. She’s fourteen. She’s the long range archer. We call her Flaw… I have no idea why. Then there’s Kaden. He’s only ten, and short as mess. I know, young for an agent of the government. My advice to you, don’t underestimate him. He’s an all around guy. He’ll do long range, short range, or anything of the like. We call him Soul. Tonight we’re on a mission. Our mission is to find and kill a man by the name of Reed Hawthorne. “Okay, Blaze, hit it.” I said to him. He crept forward, guns in hand. The man, Reed Hawthorne, stood a few feet from the alleyway we stood in. He was striking a deal with another man. Blaze ran out of the alley. Flaw knocked an arrow, from her perch at the top of the building. Soul, left alone, stayed with me in the alleyway. Blaze headed through the shadows around the two men. Neither noticed him. Blaze was good at stealth missions. He even scared me sometimes. He reached around and grabbed Hawthorne around the neck, placing the barrel of the gun to his chin. The other man stared wide-eyed for a minute, but ran for dear life. “Say goodbye.” Blaze said, in his cold, bloodthirsty voice. Hawthorne screamed. A gunshot through the head and he was dead. Blaze dragged his carcass back into the alleyway, as Flaw jumped down. “Good work guys.” I said. I ruffled the youngest, Soul’s, hair. “Bag that please, Blaze. That’s gross.” I spoke again, the way a leader would. Flaw nodded. “That is disgusting.” Blaze shrugged. “It’s part of the job, what can I say?” After bagging the body, we left and headed for ANGEL’s drop off for dead bodies. There they are disinfected and sent for cremation. Then, we headed through the green courtyards of ANGEL and to the dormitories. There are four rankings of squads: Fallen angel, Cherubim, Seraphim, and Archangel. The Fallens have three members and a leader-that’s us. The Cherubim have four members and a leader. The Seraphim have five members and a leader. And finally, the Archs have six members and a leader. Each squad has one dormitory. The dormitories are sectioned off into the ranks. Which means that were in the Fallen’s dormitories. Each Fallen dormitory has four beds, two bathrooms, and a kitchen. The same goes for all other ranking dormitory, save for that there is one more bed for each rank you go into. “What now, Duce?” Soul asked me. “Hmmm… Wanna play cards?” I asked. “Sure.” He said. I went to the kitchen to find Blaze, the oldest of the members, scrounging for food. “Cards?” He nodded. “Be there in a sec.” I nodded back and went into the bathroom to find Flaw, taking her makeup off “Flaw, I don’t get why you need that stuff.” I said skeptically. She shrugged. “You’d look good with some. Just a little, cause you’re naturally cute.” She giggled. I blushed a bit. “I… I don’t know. Soul and Blaze want to play cards, you comin’?” I asked. And so it was that we began to play BS. We call it Book Shelf because we don’t cuss. “Two Aces.” Blaze said, laying down two cards, adding to the pile. I narrowed my eyes at him. I had one ace. “…… Book Shelf.” I said. He smirked and shook his head. “DANG IT! I suck at this game! I wanna play Texas Hold Em’!” I yelled. “But, Duce, you promised me.” Soul said giving me the puppy dog eyes. “NO!!! I wanna play Texas Hold Em’!!” I said making my own pouty face. Flaw and Blaze snickered at me. “What??” I said, confused. “We’re playing Book Shelf and that’s that.” Said Flaw. “No.” I said back. Blaze got in my face. “We are playing BS, and we’re not quitting.” He said. I narrowed my eyes again. “Fine, have it your way.” I said, crossing my eyes and my legs in a criss cross fashion. “One two.” I lied, laying a card down. “Book Shelf.” Blaze said automatically. “GAH! I told you I suck.” I said. Soul, who sat next to me, already out of cards, smiled at me. “Or maybe he’s just better than you.” I swear, my eye twitched. Flaw and Soul were already out of the game, having used up all their cards. Blaze and I were left. He thrust the overgrown pile at me. “Darn you.” I said, annoyed. He smiled at me. “You suck.” I said back. This only made his smile turn into a grin. “Just go…” I said. I had like all the cards. I might win, because I could tell when he was lying. “One three.” He said laying a card down. I had three three’s; he wasn’t lying. “Four fours.” I laid down my fours. “Two fi-“ Suddenly we felt the ring of our wristbands. The government gave out wristbands to those in ANGEL. They are to notify us of a meeting or something of the like. “Gotta go guys. Come on.” I stood and hoisted Soul up onto my shoulders. And so we left and headed to the meeting hall.
