Burning Embers: Prologue

PROLOGUE
"But how will I know it's her?" I asked
"You'll know when it's time Thane." Then the voice was gone.
Oh, that's helpful. There's only, what, six billion humans on this Earth! Oh, and an apocalypse going on. Sure no trouble at all, thane, no trouble at all. I though sarcastically, which is unusual for an angel to experience human emotions let alone express them. Then again I guess that's what you get for mingling with humans for hundreds of years. I was just so frustrated with these one word answers I kept getting lately and all these bullshit answers like 'You'll know' and 'Trust yourself', oh and my favourite 'Trust me you'll know'. I can get better answers off of a bloody fortune cookie! How the hell am I supposed to do that, I have no idea what she looks like, no clue where she is, no idea how to find her, or if she's even on earth yet! No I just have to keep flying about and hope I get lucky, hope she falls from the sky or something. I hate freaking prophets and oracles.
Then all of a sudden I felt it, it was like pure celestial power. Even though it felt as though I had just been hit with a baseball bat, it was still beautiful. That's it, it's her! It has to be her! It has to! After all what else could it be? I thought to myself. I flew to where I could feel the most power, which hopefully will be where she is, the one to save us all and end the apocalypse. Poor thing, such a heavy burden she must carry, she quiet literally has the weight of the world on her shoulders.
When I found her, she was asleep on the floor of the forest which was not there twenty minutes ago, that's for sure. She was so young, her raven black hair with flakes of red at the end, porcelain skin and petite figure, she was maybe eighteen at most. Her eyes started to slowly flicker open as the breeze played with her hair, she had beautiful emerald coloured eyes. She looked down at herself, as though she was confused, and pulled at her black shirt. It was almost like she was studying herself, confused as to why she looked this way. Then seeming to realise that I was stood in front of her, she sat up and flicked her eyes towards me. And as if things weren't strange enough as it was, her words were even stranger.
"Why the hell am I here? And what the hell is going on!?"
