"Thanks." she said cautiously. She took in another breath, then sighed. "You're right though. The whole no wings thing, but so far it's the closest lead I have." she pulled at her wings again. "So far, we're screwed. One Angel has switched sides. One of the good Angels has a power so I can't even get close to them." she growled, remembering the earlier incident. "We only have so long to find the heir, before they realize who they are. The heir is stronger than all of us Angels combined. We have to bring them back before they realize their power, or the Darkness will consume them, and they will destroy all of our worlds."

Rikki shook her head, becoming angry once again. She clenched her fist, trying to calm herself down before she did something she knew she would regret.

She looked back up at him. "Look, I get that you don't like people, and I get that you probably don't like me very much, or the other Angels. But we're in a tight spot, like I said, we are screwed." she stopped talking and bit down on her lip. Sighing, she continued, "I'm asking you to help us. And ask anyone, I don't ask for help, unless I have no other choice. I am not prepared to be killed by some kid who gets overwhelmed by power." she gulped. "So I am swallowing my pride, and I am asking you, please help us."
 
-Raike placed his mug of hot chocolate on the table, and sat down in one of the chairs, thumping his fingers on the table thoughtfully, with his brow furrowed. If he helped them, what was in it for him? But that didn't always matter he guessed, this was technically the fate of the world they were talking about. But what if he really did turn out to be the one who was the heir? What then? He sighed, weighing and playing out all the possible outcomes in his mind. He took one hand and braced it against the table, and held his head in that hand, his hair concealing his eyes. He had come to a decision.-

".... Fine, I'll help you guys out. Don't you people dare start treating me like some drag or whatever, I want respect. And for the record Rikki,I never said I didn't like you."

-He took another sip of the hot chocolate, feeling it run down his throat and heat it up. He soon came to a realization, that if anyone else had asked him, he would have said no."
 
Rikki nodded, smiling a little. She put her own cup down and fell back on the bed. "Okay. I will show you respect, or at least as much as I am capable of showing." she said, staring up at the ceiling. "But I will warn you, piss me off, and you won't like me the tiniest little bit." then she had a thought. She hadn't really discussed any of this with Alex.

Rikki closed her eyes, and decided to just lay there for a minute. After a moment, she collected a thought in her head, and decided to send it to Raike.

Welcome to the team, Raike. And Thank You.

She realized she'd said that twice today, and sighed. She was being way too nice.
 
((Last post for tonight[tomorrow])


" I doubt it Rikki. In fact, I believe that the way that you act, is the reason why some people like you."

-Raike walked back over to his couch, and lay down again. His sleeping pattern was obviously messed up majorly, as he was getting ready to walk down that dusty trail already. "Great" He thought to himself. " I just joined the struggle for the survival of the earth." Well one thing was for certain. These next few day were going to be inresting to say the least. On the other hand, he guessed he would be able to use the item that he found a while ago. Before drifting off, he said one last thing.-

" Try to keep off your feet okay Rik? Your already pretty banged up, and that headache will only get worse. And if you fall, I won't be awake to catch you."
 
Rikki lay there for a few minutes, not really saying or doing anything. She knew she wasn't going to sleep yet, so she had to find something to occupy her time. She sat up, looking around the room for something to entertain her. Unfortunately, this place didn't seem to have anything of interest to her.

Sighing, she looked over to the window, and noticed that the sun was no longer seeping through the curtain. The night had approached. She smiled and walked over to the window, drawing back the curtain. Looking out at the sky, she found this was the only time she liked the human world.

She shook her head. "How do humans sleep during this time?" she wondered, "Maybe they don't appreciate it because they can't fly. But I can." she hoisted herself on to the window and glanced back at Raike. Then she turned her attention back to the window. "He said stay off my feet, I won't be on my feet. And I think I can handle a little flying." with that, she spread her wings out and took off, flying through the night sky.
 
Angel was extremely bored. So she got up and went to take a shower. As she started washing her hair she realized she'd grabbed the wrong shampoo and conditioner when she went shopping. *Oh well. I think I'll live with smelling like strawberries and cream for a while until I can go shopping again*, she thought. She finished her shower in 15 minutes. She got dressed again in her pajamas and started towel-drying her feathers. She had brushed her hair and teeth while she was in the bathroom.
 
Alex sighed a bit, wishing he didn't leave his guitar back at the motel room. He didn't expect to be searching for them for this long. He thought he would find them at one of the hotels in the direction he was sure they went to. Alex walked slowly to the last hotel room. He debated whether he should just turn now and go back, or finish what he started. Usually, if the task wasn't that important, he would have turned back by now. But this was different. This time, it meant something. Alex approached the motel manager, and managed to find out that the people he described were indeed seen here.

Finally. Alex walked towards their hotel room. Now I can finally knock some sense into that girl.
 
Angel could sense someone approaching. She did a quick mental scan, something she had learned from watching Silver do it so many times. *Alex*, she thought. And he's alone, and relaxed. Her wing was still very sore so she couldn't move it all that much. *Where Alex is, Rikki is never far away. And vise versa.*, she thought. She waited for him to knock. *Well, show time*, Angel thought, sighing. She glanced at Silver then away.
 
Rikki landed back in the room, tucking her wings behind her. She looked around, and Alex was still nowhere to be seen. She sighed, and sat down on her bed. She rubbed her wings. They were a bit sore from the flight, and from the fall she'd taken earlier. She had a feeling she shouldn't be flying for a couple of hours, which only made her mad, because flying was her life.

She forced herself to lay down on her bed, looking at the empty room, well mostly empty due to the fact that Raike was sleeping on the couch again. She didn't cover herself up with the blanket, just lay there. After a minute, she decided to find Alex, well find him mentally anyway. She closed her eyes and searched for his mental pattern, and when she found it, she latched on. She decided to monitor him, listen to what was happening. She would know what he was doing, how the whole Rosie thing was going, while just laying there.
 
Alex sighed deeply, cursing a bit under his breath as he approached the room. He knew what this might come to, but he wishes it wouldn't. But he knew something for sure. She would at least hear him out. It was the least she could do. Alex had every intention of bringing her back, though. He walked up to the room they were in, and knocked on the door, waiting for someone to answer. Hopefully this time, someone would.
 
Angel heard the knock she'd been waiting for. She walked over to the door and opened it. She wasn't suprised at all to see Alex standing there. "Ah, Alex. I've been wondering when you'd come and find me. Please, come in and sit down and make yourself comfortable", Angel said, her voice polite and lovely as usual. She walked to the fridge. "Anything I can get you to drink Alex?", she asked. She may not want him here, but that was no excuse to be anything but polite as he was her guest at the moment.
 
Alex saw as Angel opened the door and invited him in. He shrugged and went inside. "I'm fine, he said, as he offered him a drink. Now you can cut the crap. I imagine you know why I'm here. I've come to bring you back with us, Angel. You don't belong with those two. You belong with us. You have a mission to do, a mission the entire Dark Kingdom is relying on, and you've gone and become selfish and burdening Rikki and myself with the load. You should know your place, and your place is with us, not here. I've come to take you back."

Alex stood and observed the two Angels in the room as well. His gaze fell back to Angel.
 
(Seriously guys! Too much to read agh! O.o')

Silver heard the knock and sighed.

"I knew it... Instincts never lie; The dark angel boy followed us. Angel, he's coming here to try to convince you to go back. I think our best option may be..."

He paused, not for thought, but because he figured it may be ridiculous sounding, and it probably was.

"To counter it. Convince him to join our side. Something tells me he doesn't want to fight, the war I mean. He wants to get you back, and if he doesn't convince you..."

Silver grabbed a knife and stabbeed it forward in the air, before placing it back down.

"Okay..."

Silver came to the door and led the boy in, having him sit on an open bed. the four were forming a circle, facing inward.

"I'll ask politely for you to unarm yourself..."

Silver's voice was calm and collected, though entirely polite toward the boy, as if they were not enemies, but simply neutral. As he asked that the boy go unequiped, he placed his own weapons in the corner, leaving himself with no weapon, no malice, no threatening or hostile agression toward the boy.

"My name is Silver, by the way. Silver Tsuin Te--"

He cut himself off before he said his last name. There was mystery behind it, as no one ever knew his last name. There was obviously a secret behind it.

"Just call me Silver. Now I know exactly why you're here. You want Angel back. Think we are disobeying our kingdoms, yes? Maybe. But consider this. If the dark kingdom weren't so bent on human destruction, the light kingdom would not be at war with them."

Silver knew his angel history very well. Maybe a little too well...

"The kingdoms used to be one. One peaceful group of angels, wings in every color. But when the human world was being decided, wether to destroy it or let it be, there were two sides. They seperated. They both elected their own rulers, and the Almighty (God) frowned upon them both. Why was there quarrel in all his children?
 
Alex looked over at the Angel that spoke, who called himself Silver, something. He shook his head. He would never give up his weapon. Not because he wouldn't be to defend himself, but because Silver wouldn't be able to touch the blade without harming himself badly. He held his sword, the Adamanta closer to him.

"I don't mean any harm for now to you guys, but I wasn't talking to you. But I will keep my weapon with me, thanks. Trust me, it's for your own good. I'm not here to discuss history either. We aren't here to fight, for now. We are looking for something, so we aren't at war. YOU are here to fight us. Now leave me alone, I'm talking to Angel. Well?"

He looked at her.
 
Julie hadn't said anything though all of this.She looked at silver and sighed.She looked at the boy who walked in the door and shifted around in her seat for a second.She hoped he wouldn't look at her too much.They we're from oppisite sides tecnicly,but she was more of a rebel.She sat there keeping her eyes on him,not showing any emotions.She looked at Silver.

"Thanks for not leaving me behind Silver."Julie said kind of quietly.

She looked at Rosie.She felt so sad for her,she loved Silver.Well Julie did too,but Silver loved Rosie back.

Rikki scoffed upon hearing the angel, Silver, speaking. As long as she was in Alex's mind, she could hear everything that was going on. She would love to explain to them that they aren't trying to destroy the human world. Not now. All they want is their heir.

She heard Alex's response and smiled. Alex was a lot of things, but he wasn't a traitor. She knew he wouldn't betray her, she knew he wouldn't betray their Kingdom. She continued to lay there, listening.
 
Silver lifted an eyebrow, intrigued at the boy's response.

"I was only asking. You can keep it if it makes you feel safer..."

He smiled just a bit, politely mocking him, only teasing. He wanted a positive environment, so he tried to lighten things up. The boy was plenty rude though.

"We are all children of the Almighty. Angels, light and dark, humans, animals, everything. You have been corrupted by your own kingdom. So has everyone. There's a bigger plot to the war that almost no one knows about. The higher-ups have reasons for the war. We can't let it go on!"

His voice rose a bit.

"Innocent angels from both sides are dying! I'm going to be honest. I have no intention of killing you, or your psychic friend. But instead of senseless violence, we should be at peace!"

Silver held his head, stressed.

"I think it's Angel's choice where she should be... It would be nice to have a few more allies though..."

He glanced at the boy, but figured he would instantly reject the idea.

"Just saying, the option's there if you want it."
 
Angel put her face in her hands. *Confusion...I am so confused*, she thought. She wanted Alex gone. He wouldn't leave without her answer. So she was going to give him one. "Leave us alone, Alex. I know that Rikki can hear me, and I hope she does. You both can just go to hell. I am not going back. Not now, not ever. I don't care if you think I'm selfish." Angel said, her voice even. She very rarely ever cursed out loud, and never at any person. Her hair flared a brilliant scarlet red and her now ruby red eyes were daring Alex to do something about her response. She felt Silver's stress and mentally hummed a calm tune.
 
Alex laughed a bit. He looked around the room, then looked at Silver. He shook his head, still chuckling a bit.

"I have been called many names before. Some say lazy, some call me brazen, even shameless. But none have ever gone to call me traitor. And that I will remain. I am no traitor to my people. I may dislike some rules they have, or not hold all their customs to my beliefs, but they all but their trust in us, what kind of person would I be if I just walked out on all of them like Angel is planning to do? I'll tell you what it's called: heartless. However, our mission specifically, the reason we are here, isn't even to fight you angels. However, you apparently were here to kill us. If that is the case, I care not if you choose to rebel. But when you gather in our people into this, I take offense to that."

Alex sighed, "I'm begging you, Angel. Come back with me. Don't make me do something I'll regret, or don't make yourself do something you'll regret."

Alex sighed as she responded. "I can't accept that answer, Angel. Come with me please, I'm begging you. Don't make me do this." Alex didn't want to fight, more importantly, he didn't really plan on hurting them, but he may very well have to.
 
Julie looked at Silver.She nodded facing the new boy at the other side of the room.She closed her eyes and put her head in her hands.She couldn't stop thinking of Sevral things.What if the dark angeled killed Rosie,Silver,and herself?What would Silver do without Rosie.And She couldn't stop thinking about what happened last night.

"I think everyone should stay at peace before a war really begains."Julie said.

She closed her eyes,where she wouldnn't see them if they looked at her.

"Deep down in side we're all the same.Someone catagorised us as Light and Dark,but we're the same."Julie said keeping her eyes closed.

"And another thing."Julie said standing up and openig her eyes."Its Rosie's life.She should live it the damned way she wants.I don't want us to fight,expecailly here,but why can't you guys accept nobody can control her life."

Julie would fight for Silver's happiness if it killed her.She wanted him to be happy.This is not just how she would make the preveous night up to him,but how she would make him happy,he had never looked happy,and now he did with Rosie,so she was ganna make darned sure it stayed that way.
