"Are you okay?"
Fuyona sighed, sitting in her bed and staring out her window at the familiar tree. Looking down, she traced the picture of an angel in her storybook. The clock read 7:01, and she knew she needed to get up and about, but she couldn't bring herself to do it just yet. Maybe if I read a bit....
Golden light danced across her bed and onto the book, blurring the words that she had read so many times over. She closed the book and slid it under her pillow, careful to conceal it as she stood up and stretched. Maybe today would be a good day. She could use a good day. Walking over the cold hardwood floor, she shifted through her clothes and grabbed whatever she could as she made her way to the bathroom. After showering, she slipped on her clothes and combed through her hair and brushed her teeth. Smiling in front of the mirror at herself, she blinked as she realised how strange it was to look so happy so easily. Grabbing her bag, Fuyona headed out the door, careful to put a skip in her step and to grace her lips with a cheery smile.
Fuyona walked towards the tree and set her hand on it. It's rough surface was so familiar, it was almost like family to her. Blinking she stepped back and stared at the tree...Fuyona couldn't help but think of the boy. His kind eyes and warm smile...Blushing, she shook her head and smiled again, taking a seat and leaning her back against the trees and closing her eyes. God, if you're listening...I'd just like to see him again...
Nirane
Lord, how late was it? It couldn't be that late. Nirane had only stayed up a little past 4. It was practically a new record. Stretching, she hurried and changed and checked her appearance in the mirror. Flawless. Flashing a bright smile to herself, smoothing her hair and skirt, she decided she was ready to embrace the day for all it had to offer, but only if it was good stuff. Fun stuff. Like cute boys. And flirting. She'd better check on some things before she headed out. Like that one girl who seemed to always be getting into some kind of trouble or other. Nirane couldn't quite put her finger on the girls' name, though. Oh, well. Wasn't that big of a deal anyway.
Satoshi
Already wide awake, Satoshi cheerfully sat crosslegged, sketching turtles and ducks. He looked up at the sky and smiled to himself. It was a good day, he could feel it in his very core. Or maybe he just wanted to believe it would be a good day. Satoshi was so optimistic, it was hard to tell with him. Looking around, he wondered where Takashi was at and why he wasn't already here to nag him. Setting his sketch aside, he leaned back and beamed as the sun warmed him up. A good day today...
OOC: Fail post :D
Kenta Ichiyou was late. That darn clock never rings properly anymore! He though irritated as he zipped up his coat. He was trying to multi-task getting dressed, eating, cleaning, and studying ALL AT THE SAME TIME. It was a wonder he wasn't half-dead already. Kenta rushed hurridly around continuosly glanncing at the clock. the hand didn't seem to be moving. Kenta blinked and realized. WHAT! It's broken?!? He couldn't believe it... Yes the clock was ancient, having belonged to his Grandfather and is father before him but He loved that clock, it was ...Oh! He didn't have anytime. Kenta tossed the clock onto his not-so-well made bed and dashed out the door slamming it shut. His bag caught in the door which he relized when he attempted to walk and promptly was choked.
Kenta gagged and turned to detach himself from the monster. With a frustrated sigh, the school boy re-closed the door this time making sure he was free and locked it. He then turned to the hallway and exited the building in a frenzy. He had no idea what time it was or for the matter how late he was. Tossing the thought aside he continued up the street towards his first job. God, If you exist please don't let me be fired he thought pushing open the door and walking into the shop.
Takashi smiled at the group around him. tiny faces, alight with excitement stared back at him. Today Takashi was giving a speech to the children of the Angel Society. Takashi was a full fleged Angel and one of the best the Angel Society had ever seen. A mere smile from him could light a million homes for a lifetime. Imagine what more he could do. Takashi loved talking to the children, although he couldn't remember being one he could imagine that he was probably as filled with wonder as them.
He brushed a hand through his sandy colored hair and smiled once more
"Any questions?" He asked. Instantly a thousand tiny hands went up as the eager Angel children bounced in their seats to be able to ask first.
Takashi chuckled a bit at their reaction and chose a little girl in the first row.
"Can...CAN I HAVE YOUR AUTOGRAPH TOHAMI-SAMA?!?" The girl blurted out.
Takashi blinked once in surprise, that was not a question he had expected.
"Please call me Takashi, no need for formalities" He replied ever smiling.
The little Angel girl sat back down blushing, with no objection to her unanswered question.
At once there was an uproar, all of the children asking if they were allowed to use the name too. Takashi laughed
" Alright, Alright does anyone have a question related to the Angel Exams?" He asked.
The group settled down looking around at eachother with confused faces.
Was anyone paying attention Takashi thought.
"Excuse me, Tohami-san?" A voice said behind him.
Takashi turned to the speaker recognizing a Messenger Angel, one clothed in the royals servants clothing. A messenger from the Elders? for me? Takashi thought. What could it be His expression remained calm
"Why Hello there ^^" He smiled softly "What brings an official such as yourself out here to these parts, other than the fine day we're having?"
The Messenger blinked and nervously adjusted his robes. Just a size too big for him.
"Uh yes... It's about" He looked up "Your student"
"Student?" Takashi asked looking around at the children who were now playing with a harp.
"not one of them" the Messenger said softly "I'm talking about 'Your' student" He explained stressing the word. He fumbled with his papers "Er.."
"SATOSHI!?" Takashi asked his voice louder than expected. He faced the children to see if anyone noticed then turned back
"What's wrong is he hurt? sick? in danger?"
"Oh its nothing like that.. you see...uh...how do I put this he well"
Takashi waited patiently. Patience was something he always possesed. The Messenger sifted through his papers his hand staying on one. Takashi got it.
"May I see that sheet?" He asked flashing another smile.
the power in it washed over the stumbling messenger.The messenger looked up with wide eyes
pleading "not here" Takashi led the Messenger to a secluded spot away from the children.
"HE FAILED THE ANGEL EXAM!!!!" The Messenger shouted in a whisper but it was loud enough for Takashi.
"What? Takashi couldn't believe it he reached out grabbing the MEssengers shoulders Not that not EVER that!
"Where is he? Do you know? The starteld Angel looked over his papers
"oh it says here he is to be having a council with the elders about it" he stuttered.
"Where? When? Takashi futher inquired. Failing the exam can only mean one thing.
"I I...i'm not sure, probably the council room, sometime soon. the paper doesn't tell me anymore I just wanted to tell you because how amazing you are and all...."
the MEssenger cut off. Takashi realized he had been shaking him and droppped his arms
"Thank you for the information I greatly appreciate it He said calmly. The MEssenger smiled and rushed off. Takashi leaned against a tree How could this happen he was such a good boy he thought staring into the sky that didn't seem to be such a gorgeous day anymore.
It was a terrible thing for an Angel to fail their exam because the only way you could was if ... You were evil.
Soft footsteps fell upon the dusty ground. A world so dark you could never believe there was ever light there. Even the word couldn't have existed. Emptiness echoed the silence all around, the place was deserted. Lonely, forgotten and betryed. Just how it liked it. The footsteps sounded odd as if they didn't fit in, they were a disturbance to the eerie quietness. But also, the foot steps showed joy, something unheard of here. A sudden flash of white broke through the darkness. The hem of a dress. the girl wearing the dress was the one running, hopping, skipping, playing.
All things that disgusted the "people" who lived there. Something had to be done about it. But how? What? She was an annomally this girl. A demon in-training,
"Sanni!"
A voice called her name. The footsteps stopped as the girl froze and looked around the darkness. No one was there but she could clearly hear her name having been said. She tilted her head her shimmery blue hair spilling over her shoulder as she tried desperately to peer into the darkness.
"Uhm... Who's there" She called with an edge of nervousness. She waited there was no reply. Blinking twice she shrugged and took a step. Then froze again, something... or someone was behind her. Sanni bit her pale lip, the nervousness branching into fear. She didn't know what to do. Her hesitation asn't the right choice, seconds later she felt herself falling and a darkness washed over her different than the one all around.
.....
Sanni opened her eyes blinking once or twice before realizing she wassn't in any place she recognized.She sat up glancing around and gasped A cold hard floor...misty deathly air...dark lights of haunting faces... this could only be one place...But why why was she here? She pushed herself to her feet listening closely. Was it a dream? or was someone here/ A million questions attacked her mind.
And then out of Nowhere
SLAM!
Sanni instantly lost her balance falling back onto the cold floor in shock staring up and around her blue hair flying wildly searching for the cuase of the noise.A single blue flame is lit. Her eyes grew wide with horror
i...i I'm so-
Sanni began
"ENOUGH!!!!!!" a voice thunders from above her. Sanni flinched frozen in her spot as more candles of blue flame were lit.
"SANNI MIIKAMI YOU HAVE FAILED YOURE DEMON ENTRANCE EXAM ALL YOU CAN SAY IS SORRY!" the voices above spoke in unison
The frightened demon in training girl went silent. "YOUR PUNISHMENT YOU ARE SENTENCED TO EARTH FOR ETERNITY!"
"Please no! >.<" Sanni squeaked instantly shocked at herself she gasped clapping her hands over her mouth. Earth? there were such terrible stories about it. My exam? I failed but how? I mean I tried so hard...but [i] Sanni's thoughts raced as the Demon Elders named off her offences. [i] but those are nice things. Why am i being punished for being nice nothing was making sense it was all too much for her. she looked down and realized a dark circle forming beneath her
"NOW GO!" the Elders shouted. Sanni jumped up trying to escape the increasing void beneath her. But the feat didn't seem possible for every where she went the circle was sure to follow. and she was sinking into it.
"NO WAIT! PLEASE GIVE ME ANOTHER CHANCE!!
The elders laughed darkly. "Another chance? you would never pass. Didn't you realize you don't belong here maybe earth is better for you!" One called to her. Sanni began to cry trying to get out of the void and failing. Echoing
"Please...please...please"
"her crying is getting annoying"
"nt to worry it will all be over soon"
"should her teacher be punished as well?"
"Nirane? I wouldn't think of it she's as bad as they get"
"then how could one she mentored fail... and so 'wonderfully'?"
"guess theres always one good apple in the bunch"
SAnni was fading barely seeing the room anymore
"Please, please don't do this to me" She called out weakly again
"she speaks like an Angel. She'll be the laughing stock of us all on Earth"
"I have another option"
"What?"
the demons whispered together. the sound of it menacing to the slowly sinking girl.
then suddenly the sinking stopped. Sanni couldn't believe it no way? did they do something nice?[/b]
"SANNI! We have another option for you!" Sanni was still in shock.
"You may retake your exam ONLY if you can find one demon to go with you"
"go?" Sanni silently questioned.
"To Earth you innocent Idiot!"
"If you pass you may return here"
Sannis face lit up and she found her words
"REALLY!"
the council was quiet. "yes" and the coucil scene evaporated.
Who would go to Earth here? There were terrifying stories about it and how humans would not take kindly to their kind. But Sanni had to choose quick
closing her eyes she thought. My exam...my mentor ..Nirane

Fuyona hadn't noticed she had drifted off. When she woke up, she watched Kenta pass her on the street. He never says hello to me....He works too hard... Sighing, she fiddled with the grass near the tree and opened her bag, pulling out her book of poems. Brushing the dust off the top she smiled at the marked page.
That perches on the soul
And sings the tune without the words
And never stops at all.
And sweetest in the gale is heard
And sore must be the storm
That could abash the little bird
That kept so many warm
I've heard it in the chillest land
And on the strangest sea.
But never in extremity
It asked a crumb of me!
She leaned against the tree again, sighing once more as she watched little diamonds of sunlight through the leaves of the tree.
Nirane
Stretching, Nirane stepped outside, fixing her hair as a breeze rolled by. Morning was the worst part of the day. Who woke up this early? God, people were stupid. Sighing, she walked past a park. She walked past a little shop and yawned, she ran into something. As she hit the sidewalk, she glared at wh"atever was in her way.
"Watch where you're going you annoying little-" Nirane paused, since, after brushing the hair out of her eyes she noticed it was her student, "Oh. It's you."
Satoshi
Satoshi stood and walked towards the building he thought Takashi might be teaching at or something. He paused as he noticed Takashi leaning against a tree. Beaming, he raced over, waving happily.
"Taka-Chan~!" Satoshi cooed, "Good morning!" Bowing slightly, he held out his drawing proudly, smiling cheerfully up at the older boy, "I drew it myself. Do you like it?"

Kenta went straight to work the moment he arrived, quickly making up for his lost time, and speeding up production. His boss came out of the back room and saw him.
âKenta! There you are!â
Kenta looked up but only for a second, very focused on his work, though he did possess the ability to multi-task.
â Good Morning Sirâ He replied respectively to his Employer.
âNo wonder the business is booming and the customers are pleased my best worker has arrivedâ his boss said. Kenta blinked but kept working. âNow there wonât be any trouble, will there Kentaâ
âNo sir, no trouble at all Kenta replied a little uneasily, but didnât slow down.
âGood good!â the boss nodded as he spoke âno trouble from little Kenta here!â he clasped a hand on Kentaâs shoulder. Kenta froze, the old manâs grip was strong Dang âŠheâs mad Kenta thought. âBe late again and I swear Iâll feed you to my petsâ The older manâs voice had gone lower than expected, it was slightly menacing. Kenta tried to keep his still and calm.
âYes sirâŠâ
âYou better or that little pay check you want could suddenly vanish you know, wouldnât want ALL those EXTRA hours to go to waste now would weâ Kenta could tell the man was grinning even though he couldnât see him.
âI wonât be late I..Promise Kentaâs hands were shaking as he spoke, he strained to keep them steady.
âGREAT!~â The bosses voice had gone back to normal, the weight of his hand was removed from Kentaâs shoulder as the boss made his way back through the door to his office laughing. After a moment Kenta recovered
Threatening to steal a personâs money they earned honestlyâŠwhat is wrong with this world
Sanni started around her at the darkness that didnât seem as dark now that she had been in the council room. She sighed in relief that it was gone and bit her lip. Okay... So she was free of it and of her punishment.. so long as she found someone to go with her but Where is Nirane-sama She thought as she started walking in a random direction. I failed my exam...she wonât be pleased with me Sanni shuddered in the unknowing of what Niraneâs punishment would be. Nirane wasnât per say âmeanâ or anything, just well Sanni didnât think Nirane liked her much.
Sanni blinked and realized she was staring at the ground, having not moved for who knows how long. Just as she took a step forward she noticed something odd. A glowing light was following her every move. She tested this a bit to confirm it by moving her foot back and forth a few times. A look of horror crossed her features and her walking turned to running. The council hadnât given her much time at all. At that moment she was already failing. Her pace quickened as she desperately tried to escape the fate that awaited her. thinking No..no...no...no over and over.
Then she tripped and it was all over. Sanni squeezed her eyes shut hoping the other side wasnât as bad as they say....but something was odd.
âWatch where youâre going you annoying little-â Sanni heard her eyes opened wide as she gasped. She couldnât believe it. A grin spread over her face as her laugh lit up the dark surroundings in a way they were never supposed to, a power Demonâs shouldnât posses
âNIRANE-SAMA!~ She cried excitedly and threw her arms around the older girl.
Takashi stared at the ground his sandy hair shinning with the light of the Angel sun. He hadnât spoken or done anything since hearing the news. Part of his mind told him he needed to go. There must be something he could do But what? He closed his eyes to think. There had to be many options. For one Satoshi was a good kid, he liked to goof off and sometimes not pay attention but the possibility for him being bad enough to fail was hard to believe. Second, Takashi was his mentor, his teacher. Satoshi was Takashiâs one and only student that had to merit some amount of goodness. Heck... if Satoshi did something wrong let me take the blame donât punish the kid.
Takashi opened his eyes slowly and smiled. Thatâs it Iâll take the blame He decided. He was just about to stand up from the tree he was leaning on when Speak of the Angel, the boy in question appeared.
âTaka-Chan~!âSatoshi cooed, "Good morning!" He bowed to his mentor as he approached thrusting a paper forward with a giant grin on his face. "I drew it myself. Do you like it?"
Takashi blinked awestruck. Satoshi was grinning, a grin that was sooo like him but also not appropriate given the news Takashi had heard. How could the boy be THIS cheerful does he not know he failed? The sandy haired demon just stared in silence at his student How would he not know though? unless he didnât go to see the results, but the only way that was possible.... Takashi bopped his fist on his other hand. THATâS IT! he shook his head
âSatoshi...did you remember to take you Angel exam this past weekend?
Forgetting to take his exam that was soo like him. Takashi was silly to think that this grinning kid could possibly be evil. Nope... merely ignorant He almost laughed.

Fuyona watched quietly as people passed her on the street. Very few seemed to notice her, she didnât mind though. It was nice to fade into the background of things once in awhile.
Nirane
âHey, what did I tell you about touching me!â Nirane pulled away and stood up, brushing herself off. âNow I look slightly less attractive,â She pouted, looking at herself in front of a window, she turned to Sanni and set her hands on her hips, narrowing her eyes slightly. âNow I remember what I was going to do. You failed that exam, didnât you? I honestly donât understand why I got the most pathetic demon to babysit.â Nirane pouted some more and paused, âWhat am I going to do with you? What should I do with you?â
Satoshi
Satoshi blinked and tilted his head, âThere was an exam?â He paused and shrug, then beamed brightly yet again, âSo is that a yes on my drawing? It didnât take very long, I only erased aboutâŠ.UhâŠNot all that many times. I think it turned out good,â Proudly inspecting his drawing he nodded, âIâm going to hang it up. Later, though. So how are you today, Taka-chan?â Satoshi plopped down on the ground under the tree and held onto Takashiâs sleeve, gently pulling it for him to sit.
It's no very long xD

Kenta continued working trying not to think of his BossâŠthis was definitely the job he hated the most. Kenta gave into temptation and chanced a glance at the clock. Twenty minutes to the end of my shift then another fifteen till school starts He thought with relief. School wasnât much better but at least the teachers liked him. But thatâs not what matters most Kenta started working harder.
Judging from his students expression Takashiâs judgement was correct
Satoshi blinked and tilted his head, âThere was an exam?â A shrug and another smile as he tried to return the Mentors attention back to the drawing. âSo is that a yes on my drawing? It didnât take very long, I only erased aboutâŠ.UhâŠNot all that many times. I think it turned out good,â
Takashi shrugged as well, now letting the laughter escape him as he playfully clapped a hand on the younger Angelâs shoulder âIâm going to hang it up. Later, though. So how are you today, Taka-chan?â The boy continued. Promptly plopping down on the ground under the and tugging on Takashiâs sleeve as if to say âSIT!~â
Takashi still chuckling gave in and sat down in the grass next to the boy.
âIt is a very nice drawing He admitted âWhat is it?
âHey, what did I tell you about touching me!â Nirane pulled away and stood up, brushing herself off. âNow I look slightly less attractive,â
Sanni was so happy she didnât mind Nirane yelling at her She just smiled as her gorgeous mentor admired her reflection. Then turned back to Sanni with the expression she always held when looking at her, one a look of disgust, and contempt
âNow I remember what I was going to do. You failed that exam, didnât you? I honestly donât understand why I got the most pathetic demon to babysitâŠ.What am I going to do with you? What should I do with you?â Nirane said
âIâm sorry that I failed Sanni found her words. âBut the Elders..you see She shuddered remembering the earlier scene. âThey have a way that I can pass, if I uh She glanced down at her feet seeing the circle slowly increasing. Throwing more volume into her voice she continued âIF YOU COME TO EARTH WITH ME! >.<â

Sitting up, Fuyona slid her poetry book into her bag and pulled another out, this one was a book of Russian folktales, she turned the page to her favorite, the tale of Vasilia the Brave. The story is about a young, beautiful girl, who is sent to the hut of the dreadful witch Baba Yaga, using her wit and a matroyshka her mother had blessed, she returns home and lives out at happy life.
Nirane
Nirane blinked and started at the idiot-er, girl- standing in front of her. Her expression was blank until a slight smile spread, "Oh! That sounds like so much fun! I don't have anything else planned for today...." Nirane paused and thought back to her schedule, she might have something to do in a few days but...Oh, what does it matter! Earth was simply filled with gossip and intrigue. There were probably tons of boys there, too. "Of course I'll go, my little failure!" Nirane smiled brightly at Sanni.
Satoshi
Satoshi blinked up at Takashi, his face dismal. "You can't tell...? It's ducks...." He wiped his eyes with his sleeve, "I worked really hard on it, too." Satoshi pouted and looked back up at Takashi, smiling again, "So what do I have to do since I failed? Clean your room?" Satoshi figured it wouldn't be too bad, it was just a silly test after all, and he knew that he wouldn't get in all that much trouble, since Takashi was his teacher and everyone loved Takashi.

Half an hour later Kenta left work hurriedly. His boss had held him up and if he wasnât quick heâd miss the city bus to school. Kenta was almost out of breath as ran down the sidewalk next to the busy street. He glanced at his watch which read five minutes late. Dang what am I gonna do if I missed it He didnât want to think of it, so he kept running. His lungs were bursting but he knew if he stopped heâd be even later. Just a little more
At first it didnât seem like her mentor was going to agree then the sullen look broke into a grin.
"Oh! That sounds like so much fun! I don't have anything else planned for today...."
Sanni could have hugged her again but she was too terrified of the growing circle beneath her.
âREALLY YAY!~â She cheered instead then looked around as Nirane continued
"Of course I'll go, my little failure!" She was smiling at her. Sanni found this odd but pushed the thought away.
just how is this supposed to work Sanni glanced at the circle growing past her feet wait thatâs odd? she thought and knelt to observe it. She gasped jumping back the closer she got to touching it the more she felt she was being pulled away. She didnât like that feeling, so she ignored the circle and looked up at her Mentor
âUhm do you know how to get to the council room?â She knew her question was stupid, but hoped that Niraneâs smile could last long enough to rid her of the terrible circle only she could see or feel.
Satoshiâs grin vanished as he misinterpreted takashiâs question as an insult
"You can't tell...? It's ducks...." He wiped his eyes with his sleeve, "I worked really hard on it, too." takashi waved his hands back and forth as he tried to assure the boy that it wasnât meant that way when he looked up to notice Satoshi smiling again That little faker!
Satoshiâs normal grin was back in place as he as he asked "So what do I have to do since I failed? Clean your room?" Takashi laughed ruffling his studentâs hair
âSilly! Itâs going to be a little harder than that, of course youâll have to take it again⊠or for the first time he gave a fake cough. âBut youâll probably have a meeting with the council so He stretched and stood up reaching for the bright Angel sky âWhat do you say we head over there eh?

Nirane paused and set her hands on her hip, now that she thought about it, she couldn't quite remember where that place was. She looked at Sanni and shook her head, "Nope, not a clue." With that, she proceeded to walk down the street, simply expecting her pupil to follow, "Now, when we get to Earth, we'll have so much fun! I can teach you all my little secrets for flirting..."
Satoshi
Satoshi pouted, "But it's such a nice day out....I don't want to spend it getting scolded, Taka-Chan. Can't they just forgive and forget? Besides," he frowned, "They'll be harder on me because you're so perfect, they'll think it's my fault I'm no good at stuff like this."
Short post.

Nirane replied with a hand on her hip "Nope, not a clue," and walked away, ahead of the fading girl. "Now, when we get to Earth, we'll have so much fun! I can teach you all my little secrets for flirting..."
Sanni stared at the circle below her. She didnât know either. Biting her lip she pleaded in thought Council if you can hear me please help me! Sanni opened her eyes one at a time expecting it not to have worked to find herself in a dark room and Nirane was not in direct sight. She called for her and was instantly surrounded by glowing blue flames. She should be happy to have gotten her wish but the scene was simply horrific. Sanni toppled to the ground in shock, spotting Nirane not far from her.
âNirane Orashi!â One of the council members boomed from their high up seats.
Takashi
As Takashi expected his student resisted, "But it's such a nice day out....I don't want to spend it getting scolded, Taka-Chan. Can't they just forgive and forget? Besides," he frowned, "They'll be harder on me because you're so perfect, they'll think it's my fault I'm no good at stuff like this."
Takashi sighed, âThatâs why you have to go to learn from your mistakes, maybe after talking to the council youâll think twice before missing an exam or anything for the matter again. Takashi didnât mean to be so hard on Satoshi but the boy really needed a lesson. Maybe this would be right for him âCome onâ Takashi held out a hand smiling at the boy âIâll be right with you every step of the way
me too :D

Nirane jumped, unexpecting, she turned and smiled innocently. "Why, what may I owe this....pleasant visit to?" She smiled up and them and faux curtsied. She absolutely hated the council. So stuffy and arrogant. Unlike Nirane, they had no rational reason to conceited. They were just sad, ugly people, truth be told. "Is it my student's failing? What can you expect? You handed me, the, like, worst mentor ever, the worst possible student. Not a very smart move on your part, was it?" Nirane reset her hands on her hips and nodded, as if to punctuate her point.
Satoshi
Satoshi narrowed his eyes slighty and stood up, ignoring Takashi's hand. It wasn't that Satoshi meant to be rude, but sometimes he just really didn't like Takashi. He was so stupid and perfect and acted like Satoshi needed to be different in order to be a good Angel. Satoshi didn't like being told what to do. He liked to be Satoshi. "If you had a choice, you'd rather be doing something else." Satoshi muttered and went on ahead, not even glancing back at Takashi. This is generally extreme pouting, in Satoshi's case.

Sanni watched as Nirane talked to the council. She looks so brave. How can she talk to them like that? She thought. Though Nirane terrified her Sanni actually admired her sometimes.
âNow now, Nirane you arenât being punished, so why are you upsetâ A council member said without enthusiasm. âAnd, If she passes under your supervision on Earth weâll free you of your duty concerning her. Doesnât that sound wonderful?â
Sanni was barely paying attention. Even here she could still see that ever growing circle.
Takashi
Satoshi seemed to glare at Takashi but he could tell that Satoshi was just slightly offended by the fact that he was being forced to give in. Satoshiâs a good kid, he just needs to stop fooling around too much Takashi thought watching Satoshi stand of his own accord and walk past him. Heâs so upset xD
"If you had a choice, you'd rather be doing something else." Satoshi muttered from ahead.
"not true! Takashi smiled and followed along Soon heâll learn The two approached the council room where the stuttering Angel from before greeted them with a very breathless
âJust in time!â and ushered them inside. The Seven members sat upon their high seats and smiled down on them. The room was incredibly white, Takashi remembered vaguely being here but couldnât think for what. He stood amazed at the fine architecture then looked down at Satoshi to see his reaction.

"What if I end up losing her? That's very well possible knowing me." Nirane added, tilting her had, hands still on hips. She didn't pay enough attention to Sanni to keep her on track, "We could be there forever." Nirane added, glancing at the terrified looking girl beside her. She looked back up at the Council, smiling in a you-know-it-could-happen sort of way. It was technically inevitable.
Satoshi
Satoshi was still pouting, and refused to even look up at the council. He could be such a child sometimes, it was almost laughable. When Takashi looked down at him, he returned it with a glare, then tilted his chin, and turned away. This is stupid. I want to go play with ducks. Satoshi frowned at the floor.
Even shorter.

Sanni spaced out staring at the circle as Nirane and the council members spoke back and forth.
"What if I end up losing her? That's very well possible knowing meâŠWe could be there forever."
âYes that would be possible but given the circumstances that youâll be sent in letâs say it âwonâtâ be possible for you to be separated for long.â
âAnd you can have plenty of fun while youâre there; there are no rules against it.â
âWhat do you say would you rather the Earth boys go after her and not you?â Said another hoping he may have touched a nerve âthey do take kindly to her type and sheâs sooooo much prettier than youâ
Takashi sighed Satoshi wouldnât even look around at the place. Who knew how many times he could be here. He prayed that Satoshiâs punishment wouldnât be too much. Possibly even fun
âSatoshi Kiyami...â an Angel Elder called to the youth trying to gain his attention. His voice was powerful but not scary, instead very comforting.
Kenta continued down the road and turned a corner just in time to see the bus pulling away.
âNO!â He cried and pushed himself to run faster but he was left in the dust, left, with less than ten minutes to get to school. The next one wouldnât be for another fifteen minutes. Dangit dangit dangit! Kenta stopped to catch his breath, clearing his thoughts and thinking calmly. There is a subway a little ways from here I could walk to the subway and hopefully be able to get there in time Iâd have about a minute to get to school from there.
Kenta was already running off before he had finished the thought.
OOC:did you notice everyone has an "a" in their name xD

"As if you saying that there were rules against my having fun would make me not do it," Nirane glared up at the council. Honestly, they were so stupid.
âWhat do you say would you rather the Earth boys go after her and not you?â Said another hoping he may have touched a nerve âthey do take kindly to her type and sheâs sooooo much prettier than youâ
Nirane immediately flipped her hair and glanced at the awkward girl next to her.
"You're joking right? There's this," she motioned towards herself, "Then there's that," she motioned towards Sanni. She narrowed her eyes, "I'm going."
Satoshi
Satoshi looked up, pouting. He just stared at them. Speaking would be like saying Takashi won this, which he didn't. Satoshi ran his hand through his hair, and glanced up at Takashi.
"Hmph." He looked back up at the council, deciding to ignore Takashi for at least another hour.

Nirane immediately flipped her hair and glanced at the awkward girl next to her.
"You're joking right? There's this," she motioned towards herself, "Then there's that," she motioned towards Sanni. She narrowed her eyes, "I'm going."
âExcellentâ the council laughed in dark unison. ânow SANNI!â
Sanni jumped at the mention of her name [/i][/b]âYe..yes..Iâm sorry >.<â[/b][/i]
The Demon Elderâs voice changed. Where it had been a laughing joking almost friendly tone with Nirane; now it sounded dark, evil and menacing. Sanni shivered clenching the edge of her white dress with tight shaking fists.
âAs you have been told!, youâve failed your Demon exam. As punishment you are sentenced to Earth until you learn to be a proper Demon. UNDERSTANDâ
Sanni was blown away by the power in the Elders voice. âY..yes!â She piped up.
âNOW GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!â The Demon elder boomed thrusting a fist forward with so much power it literally shook the walls and floor of the Council room. The laughs of the other Elders echoed around the seemingly crumbling world.
âWa..wait!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sanni cried as Nirane vanished from her sight. She hadnât had a chance to grab onto her. There was no way they wouldnât arrive separately now.
Sanniâs yell died out as she vanished into the circle below her. The Elderâs starred down at Nirane then sent another circle underneath her.
âDo not fail us Niraneâ The Elderâs spoke softly as she too was forced to disappear.
(Remember Nirane canât arrive with Sanni)
Takashi felt bad but there really wasnât much he could do except keep his promise to see it through with the boy. He listened to the Elders.
âSatoshi, you failed your exam.â One of them said with an almost guiltily sounding voice. They didnât want to punish him.
âIts fine, you can make it up by going to Earth and doing a nice thing for a human. Understand?â
They were being so kind. Earth? Takashi had heard stories about how wonderful it was and how many nice humans there were. Punishment? No this was an adventure.
Kenta dashed down street after street using the poles of road signs to both keep his balance and sped him up then he paused with a sigh of relief as he saw the sign for the subway. A grin spread across his face.

Nirane simply huffed at the Elder's.
Landing in a cemetery, she looked around and stood up, brushing skirt off and looking down at the grave stone she'd landed on. In loving memory of Miashi Ushikara. 1932-1994. Nirane rolled her eyes and headed out of the graveyard.
"Filthy corpses, how disgusting." She walked down the sidewalk, preoccupied with her surroundings and all the cute boys. While doing so, she bumped into someone and fell down. "Lord, how many people am I going to run into?" Nirane muttered, smoothing her hair and looking around the find the culprit, she spotted him. A black haired four-eyes.
"Hmph."
Satoshi
Satoshi brightened up, "That's so easy! I'm always nice! I could do that in 10 seconds!" He laughed and clasped Takashi's arms, "We get to go to Earth! Isn't that exciting!" He looked back up at the council, "Can we go now?"

Kenta was so busy racing for subway entrance so incredibly focused on it he didnât see the tall girl, who also wasnât paying attention to her surroundings, coming right towards him. They crashed into each other toppling over in separate directions
"Lord, how many people am I going to run into?" the girl muttered from where she had landed.
âOww watch it! Kenta said rubbing the spot on his head which had gotten hurt. He looked up and noticed his vision was blurry âDangit my glasses Kenta reached out feeling along the ground looking for them. His thoughts racing I need to hurry or Iâll be late, where are my glasses, oww my head, I need to get to the subway, I canât see , where are my glasses dangit
Takashi knew the Elderâs had won with their choice. He looked over and saw his studentâs usual smile return.
"That's so easy! I'm always nice! I could do that in 10 seconds!" He laughed and clasped Takashi's arms, "We get to go to Earth! Isn't that exciting!" He looked back up at the council, "Can we go now?"
Takashi chuckled a bit, happy that Satoshi was in a better mood
âElder, may I request something Takashi bowed formally.
âWhy yes you mayâ
âMay I go along with him, to ensure he is safe and keeps up with his studies, as well as a companion â
The Elderâs fell silent thinking. After a few moments they announced. âOf course you may Master Tohami that sounds like an excellent plan.â The Elder stood watching Satoshiâs excitement. âShortly after you arrive, you will receive notice of the Follow-up exam and your materials Satoshiâ Takashi looked at Satoshi and to no oneâs surprise the boy was not paying attention. Takashi answered for him with another bow as the Elder opened up the portal. A bright passageway right next to Satoshi.
âYou may goâ The Elder said motioning to the portal.
Sanni felt like she was still screaming as she arrived in Earth, but when she opened her eyes she noticed that the screaming wasnât her. It was coming from the alley where she was standing in. Without hesitation she ran into it Someoneâs in trouble She thought fearfully. Seconds later she burst onto the scene of someone being mugged. With wide eyes she cried
âOMG! PLEASE STOP! >.< throwing out her arms still running.
The mugger(xD) lifted his head with a wide grin he said âoh look another oneâ
eh? Sanni wasnât sure what the man had meant or even who they are simply knowing that someone was in trouble and the men were bad.
The muggers surrounded her, without her knowledge Sanni looked up and only uttered a soft gasp before they knocked her down. did they get away She thought desperately trying to see past her attackers at the other victim. God please say theyâre safe

Nirane finished smoothing her hair and watched the boy. He seemed to be looking for something. Picking up the stray glasses, she slid them into place and smiled at him, "There. Much better." Nodding, she stood up and looked around. Where did that failure run off to? A boy walked past Nirane, and gave her a smile. Nirane waved back and flipped her hair, resuming her hands onto her hips as she looked at back at the boy she had run into.
Satoshi
Satoshi grinned and jumped through the portal, landing in front of a hospital. He looked at the door and headed in, looking around, he walked towards a room full of young children. They were all so sick and sad.
"Hi, I'm Satoshi!" He looked around and smiled at them cheerfully.
Fuyona
Fuyona stirred a little in her sleep, her book flipping over to the story of Mikhail and the Maiden Angel Tsar. Breeze rolled over her and shifted her hair slightly across her cheek.
So short DX
Kentaâs hands searched the ground wildly I donât have anytime for this part of him just wanted to see if he could make it to school without his glasses but he knew it was a stupid idea. Then suddenly he could see again
"There. Much better." The girl said nodding, as she slipped his glasses onto his face.
Kenta stared up at her awestruck. She stood up with an involuntary toss of her hair. She was quite pretty Kenta thought absentmindedly. But, he had no time. Without a word to the girl he stood and dashed off, not even pausing to brush the dirt that had accumulated on his uniform when he fell. Kenta just dashed for the subway. The fall could have stopped him from catching it.
Satoshi grinned and jumped through the portal before Takashi could stop him.
âSatoshi wait!â Takashi called too late âWeâre supposed to go togetherâ He finished with a quieter tone, then looked back at the Elders. That boy is so impatient
âthank you for allowing me to accompany him, I promise I will bring back a boy fit to be an Angelâ He bowed again this time lower to the floor showing his sincerity.
âwe know you will, you may go Master Tohamiâ
âPlease just call me Takashi â Takashi resumed a standing position, smiled.
âyes Takashi, have a great trip, humans can be quite interestingâ
âI heard they tell the best storiesâ another elder pitched in
Takashi found the statement odd but just nodded and stepped through the portal wondering what trouble Satoshi could have gotten himself in already. But, something went wrong the portal faltered as he passed and instead of a graceful step it turned into a fall. Takashi toppled out of the Angel Light and smashed badly into another type of light. He fell through branches that cut up his arms and clothes. Due his Angel power all healed automatically but he still felt the sting of pain, something he wasnât used to. He continued falling reaching out a hand to catch himself he managed to grab hold of a branch but it was breaking.
The muggers had backed Sanni into a corner, she couldnât see beyond them any longer.
âPlease sirâŠ. She whispered âPlease donât hurt people, itâs not nice you should let them go free, theyâve done you no wrong"
The closest muggerâs eyes widened and he turned to his partner âYou hear that, sheâs trying to protect the other one,
when sheâs the one weâre after now.â His tone was shocked but also mocking.
âreallyâ the second replied then directed his next comment to her â you should worry about yourself girlyâ He laughed reaching a hand forward. Sanni faced them half fearfully half bravely.
âPromise you wonât hurt people anymoreâ She told the muggers. Out of the corner of her eye she noticed the first mugger inching towards a figure lying on the ground. âLeave him aloneâ
âHeâll be fine Princess now where are you hiding your purse.â The first mugger proceeded to kneel over the fallen victim to search his person. Sanni ignored the secondâs words her eyes on the first. She drew breath
âI said⊠Leave him alone her voice was too soft and couldnâtâ be heard over the secondâs rougher one. Both men ignored her. Just then she noticed the victim moving. âDangit!â the first mugger said and drew a knife from his pocket. Sanni gasped and the second covered her mouth.
LEAVE HIM ALONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! her thoughts cried, with a burst of light the two muggers were thrown from their spots. Sanni stood free by the wall as the men recovered and froze. She walked forward to the victim leaning over him.
âAre you alrightâ She asked with a small smile.
The victim stared up at her, mesmerized by the light reflecting off her blue hair and the kindness in her eyes.(hint her character profile pic) The muggers gained footing and dashed out of the alleyway yelping terrified shrieks. Sanni helped the victim to his.
âAre you an angel? â he asked dumbfounded.
Sanni giggled. âNot an Angel, just a passer-byâ She smiled at him again.
OOC:sorry for so much in Sannis ^^"

Flinching, the noise of snapping intruded into Fuyona's dream. She glanced up above her. It took a second for the scene to set in before her eyes widened. Slipping her book into her bag and standing up, she looked back up.
"Are you okay? Do you need any help?" She called up, shifting her weight nervously. She hoped he'd get down okay...She didn't know how to help even if he needed. Looking around anxiously, she stood up on her tippy toes and repeated herself.
Satoshi
Satoshi went around the room and introduced himself formally to each child, then stood in the middle and smiled brightly, lighting up the room. The children laughed and cheered as Satoshi beamed at all of them.
///awful post for him
Nirane
Nirane blinked, realizing the boy had left, pouting, she followed after him.
"You're not even going to say thank you," Nirane said, loudly, blinking curiously at him.

Takashi knew he couldnât hold on much longer, he tried to guess how far heâd fall if he let go. The branch snapped a bit more. Didnât seem like much was an option but if he let go he might be able to control it a little better. The branch snapped more and Takashi dropped at least a foot. Still holding on he heard a voice not far below.
"Are you okay? Do you need any help?" the voice belonged to a girl. As Takashi thought about it a sudden pang in his head caused him to lose balance and he fell the last few feet, as the girl repeated herself. Takashi crashed through the remaining branches landing on his back staring up into the face of the human girl. His wings were luckily hidden among the leaves that had fallen with him. Aside from his bright white clothing he looked like any normal teenage boy.
The victim kept on staring star struck at Sanni as she directed him to safety. âHey thanks erâ He paused.
âer?â Sanni questioned.
ânevermindâ The boy muttered laughing slightly. âanyway, thanks for saving meâ
âPlease no thank yousâ Sanni giggled âsorry they were so mean to you
âuh yeah?â the boy replied, eying her with an odd expression. Sanni just smiled, aloof. The boy stopped walking. Sanni turned after a moment. The boy stared at the ground.
âIs something wrongâ Sanni blinked confused and worried.
The boy didnât speak or move.
âare you okay? Hurt anywhere? she reached forward and to her surprise the boy lifted his arm knocking hers away.
âuhn?â
âStay away from me you hyper freak!â the boy said not lifting his head. Wha? Whatâs going on âYouâre weird ok! Just leave me alone! â But I I dpnât know what I did? âStay the heck awayâ the boy growled head still down.
âI Iâm sorry⊠Sanni was confused and hurt but she obeyed and backed away. The boy tore past her and disappeared down the street. Sanni watched with wide hurt eyes. What was that? He was so nice before?
///nyuuu itâs so cuwte ^W^ mine is lame xD
"You're not even going to say thank you," The girl called after him.
âYeah whatever bye! Kenta replied not really listening and not fully turning he raced on leaving the girl in his dust.

Don't even know how to post for him DX
Fuyona
Blinking at him, she realized he seemed a little familiar...She couldn't quite put her finger on it, so she shook it off. Kneeling beside him, she looked him over.
"Are you okay? Did you get hurt?" She gingerly touched his shoulder, and rechecked him over, she couldn't see anything...He had to have some sort of scrape. How did he get up there, anyway?
"You look alright." Fuyona smiled at him then, "I'm glad you seem alright."
Nirane
Pouting, she glared after the boy and decided to follow after him. She tugged on his sleeve.
"Hey!"
Sorry it's so short DX

Sanniâs eyes grew sadder as she stared after the long ago vanished boy. She didnât pay attention to the fact that she had arrived on the darker part of town so it seemed like there was no sunlight, or was night. Sanni walked almost ghost-like down the pathway in the opposite direction of the boy. Both voice and thoughts silent except for. Maybe this is how humans areâŠI thought the Elders were wrongâŠI donât want to be here
Sanni continued walking alone.
The girl blinked and stared at him with much of the same look as he was giving her. Then she fell to her knees beside him inspecting the damage of his fall.
"Are you okay? She repeated Did you get hurt?" Soft gentle hands touched his shoulder as she continued to look for anything that was out of place. After a moment she smiled "You look alrightâŠI'm glad you seem alright."
Takashi was a little focused on the pain on his wing and mumbled carelessly âyeah except for my win- I mean well Hi there ^^â He laughed off his mistake and smiled at the girl. âsorry did I bother you, I really shouldnât climb treesâ keeping a straight face he hid his wings with magic and lifted himself back feather free from the leaves.
Kenta had almost made it one street to cross and he was home free⊠or school free he thought when suddenly a tug on his sleeve, threw him backwards
"Hey!" The girlâs voice said as Kenta yelled
âHey what gives! He titled his head upward seeing the upside down profile of the girl from earlier. âYou! Whatâre you following me! Let me go you hag!â He grumbled she was making him so late and that was not putting him in a good mood. He tugged on his sleeve pulling it free.
OOC: hey it being short means we post faster :D imagine if you were as slow as me xD

"My, what a cute young boy," A woman in white said. Satoshi looked up at her and smiled cheerfully.
"Hi, I'm Satoshi," He mini saluted and looked around, "So where am I?"
"You're in a hospital, dear."
Nirane
Nirane instinctively touched her cheek, "H-Hag?" Tears welled up, then she shoved the boy and turned around crossing her arms, "Obviously, you've never talked to a woman outside of your family in your life!" She wiped her eyes for emphasis.
Fuyona
Fuyona smiled softer, "I'm surprised. It's a big tree. Last time I fell out of if, I broke my ankle," she laughed lightly. Glancing back up the tree, she bit her lips and sighed. Then looked back at the boy.
"I'm Fuyona, pleased to meet you," Cocking her head at an angle she smiled brightly at the boy and held her hand out.
