Rikki looked up at the midnight sky, allowing the feel of the human world to
sink in. She knew, above that sky was the Kingdom of Light, a place she had
never been, and had been warned about since she was born. The wind was
breathing lightly across the place where she stood, carrying the scents of the
numerous humans bustling through New York City.
She crinkled her nose,
the smell nauseating her. She watched as the other two Darkness Angels landed
beside her, giving them a moment to get used the human worlds gravitational
pull. To her right, Rosie landed. Rosie was a black haired beauty, with
lilac-purple eyes. Rikki thought of her as a vain girl, always preoccupied with
her looks. Her wings were jet-black and took up a large amount of space, but
they weren't yet as long as Rikki's.
Her eyes turned to her left, where
Alex had landed. He was the only boy in the Angels of Darkness, at least in
their little group. Like Rosie, he had black hair, accompanied by black eyes.
He was a little more laid back then Rikki would have preferred, but she knew he
could get the job done when called on. Quite honestly, the two of them had
trouble getting along since they had started training together. Rikki liked
violence, often picking fights just for the fun of it, and that seemed to get
under his skin. His wings were just as dark as her's and Rosie's, but somehow,
his wings had managed to become longer than Rikki's, which caused her to be a
bit bitter about the fact.
Rikki, on the other hand, was very different
from them both, appearance and personality wise. Unlike how they were both
perfect pictures of the Darkness Kingdom, with black hair and dark eyes, Rikki
had bright blond hair, streaked with red, and light green eyes. Her wings were
a little lighter than the other Angels, and were spanned out twice as much as
her height. Some in the Kingdom had often referred to her as a Darkness Angel
wannabe, thinking she was too light, and was more fit to be an Angel of Light.
This was one reason why Rikki never
[COLOR=blue !important][COLOR=blue !important]liked[/COLOR][/COLOR] any of the people in the Kingdom. It
didn't matter though, she was stronger, and more important than them. She had a
purpose, they were just taking up space.
Rikki dug something out of her
pocket, a small device often used in the human world, known as a phone. She had
been given three, one for each of them, so they could split and still
communicate. The first one was a violet color, and she tossed it to Rosie. The
second one was a dark tint of yellow, and she tossed this one to Alex. Her's
was a forest green color, which she kept in her pocket.
"Rosie, I want
you to take the East side of the city. You are looking for a man by the name of
Sam. Apparently, he's got some information on a kid who's been showing some
remarkable talents that could possibly be related to the abilities of the heir
to the Darkness Kingdom." Rikki said in a demanding tone.
Then she
turned to Alex. "Kid, you're taking on the West side of the city. There's a
series of streets and clubs that are notorious for their gangs. Trainer says
that would be an ideal location to scourer for the heir." she said, crossing
her arms. "If you have a problem with it, what are you gonna do about it?" she
smirked.
"I'll be tracing the skies, looking out for the Angels of
Light. If I spot one, I'll send you a message. When you finish with your
[COLOR=blue !important][COLOR=blue !important]job[/COLOR][/COLOR], we're meeting at a motel towards the
northern edge of the city. Trainer explained all this to you before hand, but
told me to brief you. When you reach the motel, you state that you are in the
Angel Party. They will give you the key and room number. We're all sharing a
room, so no fighting over who sleeps where. Do you both understand me?" Rikki
looked between both of the, her smirk still evident.
