((Sorry was away for the weekend))
-Raike watched the event play out before him, sighing in annoyance. This kid was annoying, this whole situation was annoying. Raike didn't know why the kid had tried to help him, but he didn't care, he didn't need anyone's help. After the past few days, Raike had decided that he wasn't going to aid either side, because one, it was getting kind confusing who was on who's side, and two because it was becoming a drag to deal with so many people. He nodded to Alex, ignoring the other two.-

"We should take this fight elsewhere to avoid anymore...interruptions" he said, glaring at the boy. "Follow me,I know a place."

-Raike then took off, sword in hand, towards the outskirts of the city. He had been around that area before, no one really lived there so not too many people could get hurt, and at the speed he was going, no one other than Alex would really be able to follow"-
 
Raike had taken off with his sword *How ignorant...* he thought. *Being offered help and then throwing it away like it was junk mail*

He willingly went with Rikki he had calmed down now so the red glow had faded and his hair had fallen back down, he had put his dagger away and so his fangs retracted and his right eye had returned to normal.

On the walk back to the hotel he had time to think, what was that anger that had fueled him back there,he looked at himself in a rainpuddle on the way and almost thought that he was seeing someone else, but it was him...his clothes were covered in blood the green hexagonical patterns of his jacket and trousers stained red and he had a large sheet of frozen blood covering his stomach where Rikki had healed him. His blood red eye stood out horribly and the dagger glowed red through his pocket, Josh then realised that he could no longer be considered "Human".

It was about 7:30 A.M. by the time they arrived at the hotel. Josh looked over at Rikki she looked like she was in pain.

They took the elevator and got upstairs, they headed into their room. He looked over at Rikki. "Now what?" he asked while holding his head in his hands.
 
Rikki walked over to her bed, laying down on it. She put her good arm over her eyes and sighed.

"I don't know about you, but I got the crap beat out of me today, I just wanna lay here." she said, groaning a little at the pain in her arm.

She sighed, staying silent for a few minutes. Then she groaned, lifting her arm up.

"I feel like total and utter crap!" she said, pulling a pillow over her face.
 
"I think I can agree with you there" Josh sniggered "Rikkilyn I have to ask" Josh said. "If you, Alex and Angel are all angels of darkness, then why didn't Alex swap sides aswell.

(Soz for really short post, couldn't think of anything else to say."
 
Rikki growled under the pillow. She couldn't answer that question. Quite frankly, she didn't know the answer anymore than he did. That was what she had wanted to talk to Alex about, but she lost the battle, so she wasn't able to ask.

"I don't know." she grumbled, pulling tighter to the pillow. Then, she remembered something and sat up. She glared at him, then through the pillow in his direction. "Oh, yeah. In case I haven't mentioned: DO NOT CALL ME RIKKILYN!" she yelled, huffing and crossing her arms.

She sat there for a few minutes, then just sighed, pulling her legs up to her chest. "We come here looking for one stinking Human, and we just get us a whole bunch of trouble." she mumbled. "First Angel leaves. Then the angels come to be nice. Then Alex leaves. Then I find out I have a brother. This is just one heck of a stinking trip." she leaned her head against her knees.
 
Angel had cried herself out after about 20-25 minutes. She flew back down into the hotel room. She saw Rikki on laying on her bed with a pillow over her face and she saw Josh just standing there. She landed on the floor, shape-shifting into a black she-wolf with lilac eyes. She padded over to Rikki's bed and put her long front legs on the bed, so she was half on the bed and half on the floor. She licked Rikki's good arm gently, trying to comfort her. *Rikki? I'm sorry if I did anything wrong. I blame earlier on temporary insanity.", she thought. She looked at Josh. She got down off the bed and padded over to Josh. She sat down in front of him and licked his hand, pushing her head against his hand. *I'm sorry for what I did Josh. I'm.....^sighs^...I miss Gold and Silver so much. I haven't been away from either of them for this long before....*, she thought, whining softly. She felt empty without them. Hollow. A few glowing pink tears fell to the floor.
 
(Can someone fill me in? There is NO way I can read all of that...)

Gold began to panic.

"What do you mean, you're closed!?!? There's other animals in the back!!!"

The woman behind the counter looked frightenedly at Gold and then down at the bloody, destroyed body of Silver on the table, the blood now dribbling on the tiled floor.

"I'm sorry, we have no room anywh--"

"I don't care!!! He needs help, NOW!!!"

Gold was ready to scream at her.

~~~~~

Jade sighed and flew away. She might as well inform the others of the situation. She found Julie and Riley, and told them, then found Rikkilyn and Angel, and informed them. She then flew back towards the Vet. Slowly, in case someone wished to follow.
 
"Hey don't worry about it Rikki you dont have to answer, and I wont call you Rikkilyn" Josh said.

(Angel enters)

" No Angel its my fault I was angry and..."

An idea sparked in Josh's head. "Guys, I tried to help by helping, Raike but that didn't work out, but what if I went after Gold and Silver instead, yeah yeah thats what we'll do, do you guys have any idea, at all where they are?" Josh was feeling pretty proud of himself for deciding on this course of action.
 
Rikki looked up at the ceiling, thinking. She shrugged.

"Actually...I'm not sure. But I think I can try to contact Gold or Silver one." she said, closing her eyes.

Gold, Silver. Where are you guys? Are you okay? Tell us where you are and we'll come.

She bit down on her lip after sending the message. In all the chaos, she had almost forgotten about Silver. She hoped he was okay.

Sighing, she pulled her wings out. More of her feathers had turned red, but some of the gray ones still remained. They were sore, and she wasn't sure how well she'd be able to fly with them. She pulled on one of her feathers, turning it over in her hand, waiting for a response from either Silver or Gold.
 
Alex nodded to him as Raike sped off. In a flash, Alex expanded his wings and took off into the direction where Raike sped off. He was fast, but Alex was fast enough to keep up with him, especially with his sword implanted into his arm and wrist, Adamanta's will flowing through him. He was his great asset, but over the years, he was also his great friend, someone he could talk to and joke around to. Alex could see passed the killing desire and the hate for most. Adamanta himself has also warmed up to Alex as well. They shared a deep bond.

They arrived at a clearing towards the outskirts of town. Alex was pretty certain the others shouldn't get involved, a fact he was hoping for.

"Let's finished this, Raike."

Alex held up his sword and aimed it at Raike, ready to fight.
 
(Hey Fearless, you completely ignored the part where Jade came and told you what happened! You can follow her!!)
 
As soon as Jade told them what had happened Angel was on her feet. She had shape-shifted and grew her wings in record time. She took off, following Jade closely. As soon as Jade landed, she did the same. She sank her wings into her skin as she ran into the building. She was about to tackle-hug Gold, but then she saw Silver laying on the table, barely breathing, blood dripping onto the floor. "Oh....my.....god" were the only words she managed. Brave, strong Silver, was barely alive. She didn't know what to do. So she walked over to Gold and simply stood beside him. She wasn't sure what to do or how badly injured Gold might be. "H-he is going to be ok.......right?", she asked. Her voice was trembling. She wasn't able to cry though, much as she wanted too. *God I am so sorry I left you alone....maybe if I'd have stayed, he wouldn't be so hurt...I'm sorry Gold*, she thought. *Almighty, hear my prayer and heal Silver. He's the most gentle person/angel I know. He doesn't deserve to suffer like this. Please,please, please I'm begging you, heal him. Gold would be lost without him....we all would. I know I haven't exactly been a perfect angel, but please make him better, not for my sake, but for everyone's. Ahmen*, she thought. *I could try and heal him a tiny bit, enough to give him so more time. If I tried to heal him completely, there's a very strong possibility that I would die. It's your call.* All she could do now was wait.
 
(OOC: sorry Silver....my bad!)

Rikki wasn't exactly sure who had come into their room. But they had information on Silver, so she was more than willing to listen. She saw Angel get to her feet, and then she, herself, turned to Josh.

"Kid, we've got to go help our friend. If you can keep up, come along. But we're flying, so you can stay here if you want. But-" she looked back over at Angel, who had just flown out the window. "Gotta go kid." and with that, she herself spread her wings out the window.

Flying was painful, extremely so, but she had to do it, so she did. She was grateful when they landed, and she followed Angel inside. Rikki stopped immediately upon seeing Silver. She'd seen enough blood for one day. She moved forward, standing beside Angel. She had done all she could to help Josh earlier, but she wasn't sure that her earlier method would work in this case.

"Oh. My. . . . . . . Gold. . . Is Silver. . . " she trailed off, finding it difficult to form her thoughts into words.
 
Angel didn't need to look to know Rikki was next to her. " No, Rikki. Silver's not....dead", she said, tripping over the last word. She touched Rikki's hand and healed her a little bit. *That should help you*, she thought. She was numb. " Forget the last thing I thought Gold, ok? I'm not really with it right now.", she said.
 
Gold noticed Angel and quickly pulled her close, tightly. He didn't try to hide his tears. Rikki came in shortly after, asking him something, but it was barely half a sentence, Gold understood though.

"I-I don't know..."

He choked up only three words through his tears. Even Jade was propped on a wall, head down in sadness. The body began to glow, white, as if it were suddenly as bright as the sun...

N-no... Don't go brother... We need you...

He was crying even more now as Silver's body began to fade into nothing, leaving behind a Silver feather on the table, as even the blood vanished. Gold began to sob more, even Jade had tears dripping from her face.
 
Angel watched as Silver's body glowed, then faded away into nothing, leaving only a silver feather behind. Gold was holding her and he was sobbing. Angel had no words to comfort him. She simply held him, her own tears were falling. She looked at the feather. She buried her face in Gold's chest, her body shaking. " H-he's.....gone.....", she said. Her eyes were a deep blue, full of grief. She took out the silver feather she had kept in her pocket. She held it her palm, encasing it in colorless diamond. She put it on a silver chain and put it on. She had just lost one of the most precious people in her life. But she knew Gold was more distraught than she was. He and Silver were twins. Brothers in arms.
 
Rikki honestly couldn't believe what had just happened. For a minute, she just stood there, not responding. Her vision began to blur, and she stepped back gradually. No, this wasn't happening. She was having a bad dream. Somebody was going to come wake her up.

She felt her back hit the door, and instantly, she rushed out of it. She ran, not really having a particular destination in mind. She needed to clear her head. She needed someone to assure her this wasn't real. She needed someone to tell her it wasn't her fault. But she felt it was. She didn't help him when Gold had told her to. Maybe if she had helped, maybe if she had never left Silver to begin with, he'd be just fine.

With that thought, she pulled her wings out, lifting into the sky. It hurt like hell, but running wasn't fast enough for her. She decided to do something. She closed her eyes, and she searched for Raike and Alex both. She knew she promised to leave Alex alone, and she would, but she needed to find them now.

Alex! Raike! Oh, god, one of you hear me please!!! she took in a breath, pulling a hand across her eyes, but she knew tears weren't stopping.

I don't care what the hell the two of you want at this moment. You're stopping this fight right now, or I'm ending it for you. She screamed to them both through their minds.

She continued searching for them. She had their mental patterns, but she wasn't sure of their exact locations. So she followed the patterns. That would lead her to them eventually.

Oh god. One of you answer me. . . please.
 
Alex felt the familiar pain of intrusion in his head He could tell someone was trying to contact him. Suddenly, he heard Rikki's voice. He tried not to focus on her, but her voice grew louder in his head. There was no way he could concentrate on the fight.

Damn it, Rikkilyn, what the hell do you want, now? Alex thought in his head. He kept his guard up in case Raike would try to attack him. He put a hand to his head.

Adamanta seered in his head as well, listening to what he and Rikkilyn said in their minds. When he was linked with Alex by the sword and the wrist, he could do this. Adamanta kept quiet in his head for now.
 
Rikki growled, still following their mind patterns.

Don't get an attitude with me Alex! I am not in the freaking mood to deal with it. Silver just-

She couldn't finish her thought. Not that it mattered. Alex probably didn't care one way or another. She put a hand to her mouth, stopping herself from sobbing.

Just listen. I love you Alex, and I really care about Raike. I'm not letting anyone else get hurt. Joshua, that human from earlier, he nearly died! And now Silver. . . . I can't take it Alex. I don't care about what you have to do. I don't care that you don't want to talk to me. And I sure as hell don't care about your little fight.

She tried her best to sound angry, but she had a feeling that even her thoughts were clouded with how distraught she was.

I can't handle anyone else getting hurt right now Alex. I've reached my limit today. I'm at my breaking point. I am begging you, as your friend, please stop. Both of you.

(OOC: haha, I can be so dramatic sometimes! :) )
 
Alex fought to get her out of his mind. He did not want to deal with her right now. In fact he wanted to completely forget about her right now. He heard her thoughts in his head.

Just listen. I love you Alex, and I really care about Raike. I'm not letting anyone else get hurt. Joshua, that human from earlier, he nearly died! And now Silver. . . . I can't take it Alex. I don't care about what you have to do. I don't care that you don't want to talk to me. And I sure as hell don't care about your little fight. I can't handle anyone else getting hurt right now Alex. I've reached my limit today. I'm at my breaking point. I am begging you, as your friend, please stop. Both of you.

Alex was about to reply in his mind, but Adamanta replied in his stead.

Dark Angel Rikkilyn, traitor of the Darkness Kingdom, get out of Alex's mind. You are a nuisance. Do you not see? Alex does not return your feelings nor does he care for you. You are a distraction for him, and are an annoyance. Alex will not get hurt. While I am with him, he can't get hurt. And if you can't handle anyone else getting injured, stay out of his mind, and you won't have to see us hurt others. Now, get out, and stay out, or I will silence you.

With that, Adamanta sent waves of psi energy towards Rikkilyn's brain, scrambling her thought, almost like an attack through the mind.

Alex wondered what to do. He hesitated. He wondered what he should say to Rikkilyn, but Adamanta's thought flowed through him.

Alex, forget about her for now.

Alex shrugged, and faced Raike again.
