My Angel system

"So the golden aura is in your body now," Nova said, looking at Luis from head to toe.

"Yeah, I tried to remove it but it\'s like it doesn\'t want to leave my body," Luis said.

"Don\'t even bother, once a golden aura is in your body it can\'t leave," Nova said, taking a sip from her juice.

"Huh? Why?" Luis asked.

"But don\'t worry, the aura is temporary and only lasts for seven days," Nova said.

\'That\'s what the timer\'s for.\' He said in realization subconsciously.

\'It makes sense now.\' Lena said.

"Okay but you still haven\'t told me how the golden aura is a bad thing," Luis said.

"It unbelievably increases your physical abilities and makes your ability cell points infinite quite alright but do you think acquiring power like that out of nowhere can come with a cost?" Nova said, taking another sip from her juice.

"What are you talking about?" Luis asked with a confused expression on his face.

"At the end of the seven days, the golden aura will expire and its after-effects will start," Nova said.

"What after effect?" Luis asked.

"For some Angels it\'s way worse for others it\'s just half of their physical abilities and ability cell points but either way it\'s still bad," Nova said.

Luis didn\'t say anything as he kept staring at her with a confused expression on his face.

"After the golden aura expires, you\'ll lose half or more than half of your physical abilities and ability cell points, even ability strength," Nova said.

"What?" Luis said with a shocked expression on his face.

"Yeah, in about seven days now, that will happen to you," Nova said as she pulled out one of the seats around the table and sat down.

"And you\'re sure that there\'s no way that I can remove the aura from my body and stop the after-effects before it happens?" Luis asked.

"No, there\'s no way to remove the golden aura, you\'ll have to wait for it to expire," Nova said.

"And then I\'ll become super weak," Luis said.

"You\'ll just lose half of your abilities or more than that, that\'s not super weak," Nova said, pouring herself another glass of juice.

"That\'s still bad," Luis said.

"Don\'t worry, it will only last for seven days and then you\'ll be back to full strength." The Guardian Angel said taking a sip from her juice.

"Really?"

"Yeah, did you think it was going to be permanent?"

\'I thought it was going to be permanent.\' Lena said.

\'Yeah but seven days without my full stats is bad, what if something happens?\' Luis said.

\'You have strong friends like her and others, just ask them for help or avoid getting into any trouble.\' Lena said.

\'Nova will be gone by then and what if none of the others are around?\' Luis asked.

\'Well, we\'ll have to wait and see if something bad happens during the period.\' Lena said.

"It\'s a good thing that it\'s not permanent," Luis said with a little sigh.

"Yeah," Nova said.

"Since the aura is going to take that much away from me for seven days then I should probably put its benefits to good use," Luis said.

"Yeah, you should," Nova said.

\'I\'m just more concerned about how you\'re going to do it.\' She thought.

"Can you explain how the aura activates because last night when I was attacked by Raymond it activated by itself but when Ciara attacked me, I didn\'t feel anything?" Luis said.

"The aura activates every time you feel threatened by anything and it only lasts for one hour after you must have dealt with or fled from the threat," Nova said.

"Oh," Luis said.

"So the reason why you didn\'t feel anything when Ciara attacked you was that you didn\'t feel threatened by her," Nova said.

"Have you absorbed golden aura before?" Luis asked because of the way she was explaining it, it was like she was speaking from experience.

"Yeah and it wasn\'t by mistake, I had to, the seven days after it expired are one of the couple of days that I\'m never going to forget." Nova said.

"I can\'t even imagine how that\'s going to feel to me," Luis said.

"Yeah, how did you even get golden aura into your system?" The Guardian Angel asked with raised eyebrows.

Luis was about to answer that question when they were suddenly interrupted by Ciara who had entered the area now.

"Hey, Luis, I think I\'m going to leave now, I need to go see my brother." She said.

"Okay," Luis said.

"See you later then and sorry about what happened." She said before turning to leave.

\'If I were you I would follow her and see if I can find anything from his brother.\' Lena said.

\'Yeah, he\'s part of George\'s gang.\'

"Hey, Ciara wait," Luis said, rushing toward her before she could leave through the door.

"What?" Ciara said, turning to him as she had her hand on the doorknob.

"I want to come with you." He said.

"Why?" She asked raising her eyebrows.

"Ummm….I just thought you would need a little company and maybe I can be that company." Luis said with an awkward expression on his face.

\'That\'s not a good excuse, you could have done better.\' Lena said.

"You want to keep me company as I go see my brother?" Ciara said looking at him with a baffled look on her face.

"Yeah," Luis said, scratching the back of his head.

"But what if what happened a few hours ago happens again?" She asked.

"I\'ve beat you in a spar before, remember, I\'ll handle it," Luis said.

"By knocking me out."

"Yeah, that\'s the best way to handle it," Luis said.

Ciara stared at him for a while without saying anything and right now Luis was getting tempted to use his mind read on her.

"Okay, let\'s go then." She said opening the door.

You could see the bright smile on her face as she walked out of the apartment.

After they two had left, Nicole along with Tammy and Pearl had walked into the room to find Nova sitting on the couch.

"Where\'s Luis?" Nicole asked.

"And Ciara?" Pearl added.

"Ugh…they left just a while ago," Nova said, turning to the door.

"And you let them!" Pearl said as she couldn\'t believe what she was hearing now.

"Yeah, they wanted to leave," Nova said.

"What if she gets caught under the mind deception again and starts attacking him?" Pearl asked.

"I\'m sure Luis will be able to handle it," Nova said.

"He wasn\'t handling it when I and Tammy arrived there this morning," Pearl said before biting her lips in anger.

Ciara knew exactly where her brother was going to be by this time of the day and that was exactly where she was heading.

"So your brother comes to the shopping areas to buy himself something to eat every day?" Luis said after they had arrived in the area.

"Yeah, he doesn\'t like the food at the cafeteria," Ciara said.

\'I\'m surprised you haven\'t questioned how he got all the money yet.\'

"There he is now," Ciara said pointing at his brother as she saw her brother walk out from one of the shops in the area.

She pulled Luis along with her as she quickly made her way to her brother.

"Hey, Luke." She said stopping behind her brother.

"Ciara," Luke said, turning to her sister with a smile as soon as he heard her voice but the expression on his face had changed as soon as he saw that she was holding Luis\' hand.

"What are you doing with my sister?" He asked, turning his gaze to Luis.

"Wait, do you two know each other?" Ciara asked with a confused expression on her face.
