16In the beginning
God created angels
And placed on them wings
That will enable them to fly
And bring His message to the world.
Then God created man and woman
And placed on them freedom
That will enable them to choose
Whether or not to accept and act on His message.
But what if
The soul of an angel
Is within the body of a man?
What is his desire?
To have divine wings,
Or the wings of freedom?

Opening Theme
You'll Be Safe Here
Rivermaya
Nobody knows
Just why we're here
Could it be fate
Or random circumstance
At the right place
At the right time
Two roads intertwine
And if the universe conspired
To meld our lives
To make us
Fuel and fire
Then know
Where ever you will be
So too shall I be
Chorus:
Close your eyes
Dry your tears
'Coz when nothing seems clear
You'll be safe here
From the sheer weight
Of your doubts and fears
Weary heart
You'll be safe here
Remember how we laughed
Until we cried
At the most stupid things
Like we were so high
But love was all that we were on
We belong
And though the world would
Never understand
This unlikely union
And why it still stands
Someday we will be set free.
Pray and believe
Chorus:
When the light disappears
And when this world's insincere
You'll be safe here
When nobody hears you scream
I'll scream with you
You'll be safe here
Save your eyes
From your tears
When everything's unclear
You'll be safe here
From the sheer weight
Of your doubts and fears
Wounded heart
When the light disappears
And when this world's insincere
You'll be safe here
When nobody hears you scream
I'll scream with you
You'll be safe here
In my arms
Through the long cold night
Sleep tight
You'll be safe here
When no one understands
I'll believe
You'll be safe,
You'll be safe
You'll be safe here
Put your heart in my hands
You'll be safe here
Author's Notes:
Hello everyone! I know this seems like another new project to add to my unending list of incomplete stories, but I can't help it! Besides, technically, this is not a new story. In fact, this is actually the revised version of the very first story I've posted on fictionpress-Angel Chronicles. For those who are familiar with that story, know that I've changed the setting, as well as retained and added some elements. However, the gist is still the same, and of course it will still involve Filipino characters. For those of you who aren't familiar, yes you heard me right. I realize that there are not many, if not none, manga stories with Filipino elements, and thus that has inspired me to write this certain manga-type story. I am a Filipino, and I am proud to be one. And so to all my kababayan anime and manga fans, this story is for you!
Oh, and by the way, note that even the opening theme of the story is a song made by a popular Filipino band, Rivermaya. It is one of my ultimate favorites, and I thought it would also fit the story well.
In any case, let's get on with the story! I hope you will enjoy it, whether you are a Filipino or not.
