Chosen Part 24: I stopped immediately trying to fight back.. At an instant silence was the night again. I couldn't move or anything, my body was just frozen. I grew nervous to do or say anything but this silence was overwhelming me. "Whuh.. Who are you?.." This voice was not Michael.. it was WAY different.. Michael always seemed on edge, demanding.. This voice?.. It was.. warm. "You know who I am boy, you just choose not to believe that it is I." His voiced echoed the night sky. My palms grew sweaty and I could feel my throat drier than ever. "I.. I uh.." "You chose to scream so loud earlier? Silas, why is that you choose to be so quiet now?..." "I.." "C'mon on with it!" He yelled. My body shook as if His voice struct the night, like a lightining bolt making contact with the concrete streets. My body grew nervous and I felt like I was gonna faint. "Ah!!! haha I'm just kidding boy! You should have seen your face!" His laugh shook everything around me. I looked down checking to see if I pee'd myself first and then looked back up at the#moonbut this time something glowed before.. A white light almost. "Your kidding me right?.. I mean your.. "God".. You know?.." "Yes, dont you think I know that?.." "You just scared the heck out of me, and then you joked about it?.." "HA!.. I can joke around?.. I mean for instance, the Grand Canyon, guess what happened!.." I thought carefully about what could have happened. "Uhmm.. could it b-" "Nope!" "What abo-" "Nope!" "Ugh! You gonna let me guess?.." "Your answers are wrong?.." "How do you-.. Thats not fair.." "Haha do you give up boy?.." "Yes.." "I sneezed!!!.." He began to laugh real loud and honestly?.. It was actually really funny. I laughed along with him, my body still floated but I was free of what ever was holding me. Slowly it became silent again and all I could do was think about what was I was told earlier. "You are angry with me, but you do not understand. Not yet. But in time you will see. Everyone has a path that I have given them. It is up to them whether they choose to stay on that path. People think I hate them and bring sadness upon their lives when its not their lives to live nor is I who bring it upon them. It is themselve yet they do not understand. I give them the lives they have but I do not force them to believe in me. I let them choose for themselves. Just like I have let you choose what to do and so far? You have done everything that is right and justice. What else is that you wish to know Silas?" "The only thing I wish to know is why me?.." I tried to look at Him in His eye's but the light shined too bright. "..Because you will be the voices of this generation.. know that you are not alone.." His voice echoed throughout the sky. "What does that mean?.." No answer. "WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?!..." I grew frustrated again. I didn't know what that meant but I knew that I had to prepare myself for this so called war. I sat there on the roof looking out to the stars hoping to have a sign or something. I took off my hoodie and threw it into my room window. I stood up to the edge of my roof and looked down. It was about 25-30ft from the ground. I closed my eyes and tried to keep my balance right so that I could concentrate on the muscles in my back. Slowly I could feel my shoulder blades spread apart. The pain shot through it and I could feel the wings slowly tear through. I knew that I would never be able to get use to this pain.. Or at least I thought. I spread both my wings apart to see how far they would go. I would say that each wing was about 7ft long. I was actually impressed with myself. I looked at the ground and before I actually knew what I was going to do, I jumped off the roof. I dove like I was going to dive in a swimming pool but my arms were at my side, my wings going from expanded to pocketing in. I looked at a spot on the ground for a second but focused back onto the muscles in my wings. I bent the front of my primary coverts up, and bent down the terteals so that the wind would push my wings up and it would send me up through the air. I scared myself realizing last minute that I was too close to the ground, so I flapped my wing up so that I could gain some distance from the ground. I perked and aimed my wing so that I could get higher. I was able to glide off the ground barely and able to have a little run off the ground before gliding back through the air

The Unknown Moments like this I wish I could fast forward To feel this way I wish to not feel more of Sometimes I wish I cud go Go to a mountains silent high top I am struggling here And peace would give me a calm It feels like every second My skin is slowly tearing off Tears from underneath Even distinguishes my cough My heart races Anger builds up To deal with this I say enough I worry about it That believe me I do Not because of this green monster But because of you On the outside I am calm On the insides a storm On the outside is me On the insides unknown

Slowing The Worlds Crumble The worlds slowly crumbling What to do, do We watch? Are we to do nothing While this whole world rots Broken it is becoming It's only getting worse We all wish it got better But good people are dispersed Finding love in wrong places Like money, sex, and drugs Finding random people Giving more than just hugs What happened to the old days Young people are so different Sleep with me it'll make you cool Thanks for the encouragement Who ever loses it first They will win a wonderful prize Nine months later guess what It'll change both their lives Ask any teenage mother They will tell you this That they love there child no doubt But this isn't the right age for it Grown ups are more immature Not guiding those kids in need How are kids suppose to learn When their own parents supply the weed Giving little kids ideas To do such things are alright What they don't see that I see Some kids won't make it that night.. We lose people we love Sometimes gone just like that Wish we could do something Anything to have them back One thing you should ask yourself If they were here what would they say Would they do the things they did Or not so they could live another day I challenge you all today Ask yourselves this If you had a son or daughter Would you want them in this The storms getting worse people The thunder is rumbling See this and do something This worlds slowly crumbling

Ungrateful As the faces stare back Eyes drown me with sorrow Tears down their faces Hoping for a better tomorrow I complain about new clothes When they have none on their backs I complain about an ugly pants While one kid is wishing for slacks We complain about parents From the start they were alone We complain about family time When they haven't got a home We complain about schools and teacher For them there was no one gentle Boys and girls here hate doing work While one kid there begs for a pencil We don't talk to random people While they have no room to be hateful They try to live #life to the fullest While we live #life ungrateful

Chosen Part 23: After Kenny left I went into the house and ignored everybody. I was so exhausted from earlier today, all that had my attention was my bed. As soon as I got into bed, I collapsed. Knocked out cold would be the best way to describe it. My eyes opened to a pitch black room. Pure black. Slowly, light surrounded the floor around me in a circle. I notice i had my football gear. I looked up to see the moon. It was bigger than usual.. but a full one. My heart began to race, beating faster and faster. My back began to crack, I could feel the urge of my wings to be drawn, grow. "AGH!!!!!" this time was different. Like.. I was being forced to have them out. I took my helmet off and threw it at the ground. I fell to the ground. I realized now that I was on our football field. I grabbed onto the grass clawing what I could to ease the pain. "WHY?!!... WHY ME?!... MICHAEL.. ANSWER ME!!" "Silas.. I understand your frustration. Please take a deep breath. You were not human boy, you were an angel all along. Your parents and sister are not your real family. I am. God created you because I needed you for this reason. Satan's army grows stronger and his son Luke is gathering people for that reason." Hearing all that made me even more angry. My body began to float above the field like I was being pulled. A beam took my body higher then the goal posts. I had no control. Tears began to drip down my face. "I never asked for this!" I screamed in tears . "There are many called my brother, but only few are chosen. You.. You were chosen to lead this army. You know the ways of the world. We need you more than ever now Silas." My wings ripped through my back. "Silas, I know you are angry but you have to let all of this anger go." "So the Hawkens.. they're not my real family?.." "No.. but we chose them to raise you because He knew that the mother would have gotten a grip on your heart." "I see.." "If you truly understand then know that no one could come close to being your family like the Hawkens." "I see it no other way." "With your permission Silas, I would like to show you the future. The battles to come.. The war that will shake this earth." I lost my breath for a second. "You mean like the Armageddon?.. The last war.." "Yes.." "Please.. I need to know what I must prepare for.." "Very well." "Before I do this, close your eyes." I did so. In a second, my body tigtened, my body spazzed causing every muscle to cramp up. The beam released me and I hit the ground landing perfectly like my reflex just sharpened. My muscles became a little bigger than before. "What did you do?.." "You matured a little is all." I could tell he was being a smart aleck. "Ha.." I replied. I looked up to the see that the ssssssky was a dark red now. I seen this before in my other dream. The field was torn up and debris was everywhere. Smoke was in the air and fog covered the field. I looked around but could not see anything. "What happened here?.." Slowly the fog disappeared and bodies piled on the ground before me. "The world is going to tear itself apart." "How?.. Why?.." "Lucifers lies happened.. They became swallowed up and consumed by sin. Lucifer took their souls by deceiving them. No one was there to defend them.. Silas.. Darkness overcame them. You have the power to change that.. Stop him from doing so." "How?.. What do I do?!.." I became frustrated. "You will know what to do." I awoke in the middle of the night growing emotionally and physically drained over the past few weeks, since my birthday. All of this is too much for me to handle. I'm 18, almost graduated, last year of highschool. Last but not least, I have enough teenage problems to deal with as it is. How the heck am I suppose to do that and all of this at the same time?.. What is Michael thinking.. I then sat there wondering what it is that I needed to do to save all of these people. As I laid there thinking more about the situation, faces came to mind. My friends clouded my thoughts.. Then my family. My sister.. My Mother.. I thought about what Michael had said, how could she not tell me?.. I began to tear up thinking about it.. All of those years believing that the lady who raised me was my actual mother was a lie.. I jumped out of bed, put on a hoodie and snuck out my window onto our roof. We had a two story house and on the roof is an area where I would sit and looked up to the stars and think but I haven't been up here in so long. I sat there, running all that had just happen.. all that I have been told in my head. I sat there and thought just.. why couldnt I be normal like everyone else... I stood up not being able to keep any of it in any longer.. "WHY?!!.. WHY ME?!... OF ALL THE PEOPLE YOU CREATED?.. OF ALL THE THINGS.." I cried out hoping that God would answer me. "YOU DID THIS TO ME.. I NEVER WANTED ANY OF THIS.. ANSWER ME!!!!..." The anger began build in me and all it did was fuel my rage and all I wanted to do was reek havoc on everything before me. My body began to tense up and my muscles tightened. I slammed my fist into the roof punching a hole into my room. My back began to break and I could feel my wings claw out of my back ripping skin. "AGHhh!!!!......" I let out a loud scream that pierced the silent night. I dropped to the ground landing on my knees, tears escaping the corner of my eyes.. My wings sheated to its fullness. My breaths deeper... harder to control.. I looked up hoping to find the answer but to only see the#moonbefore me. The#moonwas full and it glowed brighter than usual. My eyes stared, focusing on it, not being able to move from its sight. My body started to float.. My wings didn't move at all. I couldn't process what was going on before me. My legs came together, my arms pointing outwards into different directions. My body being pulled.. "Be still my son... Do not fight it.."
