hell.

The Rebel Angels, Part 2 of ? by Lady Disdain 
<The_Lady_Disdain@mailcity.com>

"The heavens were opened and a blinding light of 
exceptional brilliance flowed through my entire 
brain."

 That was St. Hildegard Von Bigen trying to explain 
her sudden understanding of the texts of her 
religion.

 Its also exactly how I felt when I saw the news 
report on the St. Louis outbreak. I just knew it was 
the alien illness that my rebel angels were trying to 
save people from. I was meant to help them, to aid 
them in their fight. 

 I think I reacted to my discovery of my destiny 
rather unusually. I didn't sit and think about it, I 
went upstairs and packed.

 The next morning I never got off the highway on my 
way to work. I just kept on driving. I had no idea 
how I was going to find these people. I just headed 
southeast knowing that things would take care of 
themselves. After all I prefer fate rather than 
chance. 
 
 I pulled off the highway in Pittsburgh to get 
something to eat. At the Mours diner the whole 
restaurant ate in silence as they watched the latest 
report on the outbreak on CNN.

 Nothing scares people more than something that 
cannot be understood. At the time no one truly knew 
what the sickness was or why St. Louis was the center 
of the breakout. No one except except my two rebel 
angels. 

 I was an hour outside of D.C. when I realized I was 
almost out of gas. I pulled my Honda into the BP 
station and filled up. The cashier had a look on her 
face that showed utter boredom, she made little 
effort to smile when I entered. I walked past the 
bullet-proof glass to get a soda and stopped in my 
tracks.

 There he was. A rebel angel in a black t-shirt and 
jeans picking up a bottle of ice tea. I could see his 
face through the reflection on the glass on the 
refrigerator door. His face was lined and creased 
with worry. The reflection of his eyes met mine.

 I slowly took another step towards him as we 
silently stared at one another. I stood on my tip 
toes to whisper in his ear.

"I know your cause and I want to help."
