Chapter 9 - Episode 9: Return of the Fallen Light

[Heaven]

Theo stood on the clouds, looking down at Karina with soft, sorrowful eyes.

Theo:

"Sorry, Karina… I didn't finish the 100 Days with you.

I didn't do it to abandon you…

I did it because I had to save you.

Just remember…

I'm here.

In heaven.

Watching over you… always."

He said these words even though he knew Karina couldn't hear him.

Below, Karina cried endlessly, feeling the heavy emptiness left by Angel Theo's departure.

[After an Hour — Hospital]

Doctor: "Goodbye, Karina. And again, congratulations on your recovery."

Karina: "Thank you, Doctor… for taking care of me. I'll be going now."

She said her goodbyes to the nurses and staff who helped her through her recovery.

When she reached home, Karina went straight to her bed.

As she lay down, memories of her moments with Theo returned one by one — his smile, his voice, his presence.

And just like that… she cried all over again.

[Unknown House]

A woman sat on the couch, her nerves tense.

Woman: "Tara… we need to go to the office. They said they have something to tell us. It might help us find yours."

Man: "Yours… what? Say it."

Woman: "I… I don't want to call him that. I feel like I've forgotten him for too long."

Man: "Okay. Let's go."

[Office]

PI: "Uhmm… are you the couple searching for the boy who disappeared at the park?"

Parents: "Yes… we are. What's the update on the case?"

The investigator sighed, hesitant.

PI:

"I don't want to say this… but when your child disappeared at the park… someone kidnapped him.

While the kidnapper was crossing the road with your son, a car hit both of them.

Your child… fainted at the scene."

The mother broke down, holding her mouth as tears poured down.

Father: "Are you sure…?"

PI: "We confirmed it. Your son's name is… Theo Kang, right?"

Father: "What…?! No… no, it can't be!! NOOO!!!"

On their way home, Theo's parents were completely devastated, trembling from the painful truth they had learned.

[Hell]

Dave, the demon, smirked in the darkness.

Dave:

"Now that Theo is no longer in our way…

It's time to continue the plan.

Let's capture Karina's soul."

Evil laughter echoes through the flames.

[Heaven]

Theo, watching from above, suddenly heard every word of Dave's evil plan.

Theo: "No… I can't let this happen. I need to talk to the Lord. Now!"

He ran toward the throne, wings trembling with urgency.

Theo: "Lord, please! Karina's soul is in danger again! I need to go back to Earth. I need to guide her… protect her!"

God looked at him with knowing eyes.

God:

"I know what the demons plan to do.

And yes… you must go back.

You will return to Earth and protect her.

But remember, Theo…

You now have 86 days left for your mission."

Theo bowed deeply, grateful.

Theo: "Thank You, Lord! I won't waste this chance. Goodbye!"

A heavenly light burst from the sky, wrapping around Theo and pulling him downward — back to Earth.

[Karina's House]

Theo's feet touched the floor softly.

He entered quietly and saw Karina sleeping, tears dried on her cheeks.

He stepped closer… watching her.

Moments later, Karina's eyes fluttered open.

She gasped.

Karina: "I-Is this real…? Is it really you?"

Theo smiled gently.

Theo: "Yes. I'm here… I came back."

Karina's tears overflowed instantly.

Karina: "Theo!! You came back for me!"

They ran into each other's arms and cried — reunited after the impossible.

But their reunion was cut short.

Because in the shadows of the night…

the demons finally arrived on Earth.

Their presence shook the air.

Is this the beginning of another battle between Angel Theo…

and Demon Dave?.
