Sugar and Spice

SUGAR & SPICE

“I can’t believe you said that to me!” Sugar twirled a strand of her sunny blonde hair on a finger. “Well, actually I can but that is beside the point.”
“Well, deal with it.” Spice stood and tossed her short curly black hair about, trying to remove the stray pieces from her eyes. “I’ll say what I want when I want to who I want. That’s the joy of being me.”
Sugar rolled her beautiful teal eyes heavenward in despair. She twisted her perfect pink lips into a small smile and turned her pert little nose to the sky. Spice arched a thin black brow and glared at her sister with dark brown eyes. Subconsciously she bit her dark red painted lips and frowned.
“He won’t help you.” She said finally.
“Really, Spice. I am not asking Him for help.” Sugar looked upon her sister and smiled. “Well, who is he?”
“God, you idiot!” Spice shouted and Sugar winced.
“No, I mean who is the guy you came here to meet? That’s why you’re here isn’t it? Some new guy?” Sugar glanced around and Spice felt a moment’s envy of her sister’s long blond hair. Although the short, black, curly hair Spice possessed was accurate to her personality, she sometimes longed for the angelic look her sister retained.
“His name is Ryon. And he is perfectly devilish. Good looking too, of course.” Spice added.
“Of course.” Sugar replied with a small smile.
“Anyway, you can’t stay here.” Spice felt her loathing rise up again.
“Why not?” Sugar asked, her confusion genuine. She loved her sister, even if they were opposites.
“Because I said!” Spice raged and her eyes flared. Red highlights entered her hair and Sugar smiled broadly.
“You can’t threaten me, sister dear. I am with the more powerful of the two. Don’t ever forget that.” Sugar spread her wings and flew skyward.
“How can I?” Spice mumbled as she calmed down. She and her sister were angels, one fallen, one soaring. Spice straightened her spine and put on her most seductive smile as the handsome young man approached.
“Hiya.” He said, in a deep voice.
“Hi, Ryon.” Spice leaned close.
“Spice is such an interesting name. Dangerous.” Ryon smiled and stepped back.
“Not really.” Spice replied. “I can give you anything you desire.”
“Hmmm.” Ryon looked up toward the sky and Spice crossed her arms. “Anything?”
“Yes.” Spice lifted an eyebrow warily. This wasn’t going like the Devil had said it would. The boy was stalling.
“How about the Heavenly Angel that just left? Or is that out of your reach?” Ryon returned his gaze to Spice.
Spice grew angry. “Wealth? Fame? Women? It’s all yours.”
“Don’t want it.” Ryon chuckled. “Thanks anyway, Spice. But I know who you are.” Ryon turned and strode away. Spice cursed her sister. In Hell, she sat upon the hot brimstone and planned the perfect revenge on Sugar. And she waited for the day to carry it out.

Hot & Spicy

Spice smiled alluringly at the little demon in front of her. He was an ugly brown color with flesh peeling of his face in huge chunks. His teeth were green and slimy with pieces of unknown things in the gaps. His name was Rayn and he was Satan’s number 1.
“Well, Spice. What is your excuse?” Rayn slobbered as he spoke, his words burning fiery hot with every despicable thought.
“I don’t need an excuse, minion. I need revenge.” Spice stood and the demon lost its composure. Of course, the little guy was only three feet tall and compared to the beautiful five foot four woman he just didn’t measure up.
“Revenge?” Rayn spat and it sizzled as it hit the ground. “On Sugar?”
“No. On the human race.” Spice smiled as Rayn looked up at her in confusion. Of course she enjoyed playing the height game with Satan’s right hand. She enjoyed and used whatever power she could get a handle on. “Look at it this way. Sugar is up in Heaven, soaking up the rays while I am down here in the heat and darkness. I don’t mind the darkness but there is no way to get up to Heaven and get to Sugar. So, I’ll bring her to me.”
“All you have to do is ask her to come to you. She is sickeningly sweet.” Rayn muttered.
“That she is but she is also protected. I know she set me up with Ryon. Now I look bad. And not in a good way.” Spice smiled at the irony. It was lost on Rayn though and he began to pick at his teeth. “Get me a meeting with Satan.”
“What?” Rayn jumped up on a nearby boulder in order to be at eye level with Spice. “He will not see you! You are nothing to him!”
“Then why are you suddenly so scared and defensive?” Spice asked as she tossed her black hair about.
“I’m not scared, little girl.” Rayn growled.
“Then get me a meeting.” Spice crossed her arms and Rayn stood his ground.
“No.”
“Very well. I’ll do it without his permission.” Spice spun on her heel and strode away. She could hear the scampering of demon claws as Rayn ran off toward Satan’s office to tell on her. “Delicious.” She whispered to herself. “Absolutely delicious. Not only will I get Sugar’s attention but Satan’s as well. We’ll see how Sugar likes my little came of cat and mouse.”

SO FLY

Sugar smiled at Spice as they stood in the green field beside the Garden of Eden.
"Do you honestly believe that He loves people? I mean, he cast them out of paradise." Spice said coldly.
"Did He? I thought they ate the fruit off the forbidden tree." Sugar replied calmly as she fluttered her wings and settled herself upon the grass.
"Well, yeah but still." Spice said bitterly. "That is just a technicality."
"Isn't everything?" Sugar said and leaned back on her elbows. "I mean I have heard the lamest excuses. Everything is everyone else's fault but their own. Everything was wrong, is wrong, preventing them from seeking forgiveness."
"You've bought into the hype." Spice touched a blade of grass and it withered and died. She smiled happily.
"If only more people would buy into the hype." Sugar said. "Alright, out with it. I don't feel like sparring with you today."
"You seem to be in rare form today." Spice frowned. "I need a favor."
"I'd like to help you but He's kind of angry right now." Sugar replied.
"Oh, about the chaos at the school?" Spice said. "They needed new lockers anyway. The school board wouldn't approve the money so I thought a little vandelism might help out with the convincing."
"Oh,I see. Your intentions were good." Sugar said with a nod of her head.
"Yes."
"Your heart was in the right place."
"Uh huh."
"You're just misunderstood."
"Exactly!" Spice shouted as she killed another blade of grass.
"No, I don't think so." Sugar said as she stood. "I can't help you."
"You don't know how much I wanted you to say that, sister dear." Spice said coldly and suddenly Sugar found herself surrounded by little demons. "Take her. Careful, don't injure her wings." Spice smiled and Sugar shook her head.
"Spice, this will not sit well with God." She said.
"I know. Ask me if I care." As they dragged Sugar away Spice laughed madly. So it begins.
