Soft eyes settled on the younger Sekiriei in front of her. There was pure shock and an unsettling quiver in his lip as though he was about to cry. When Mariel stepped closer, he flinched away and a small sigh escaped her lips. Reaching down, she picked up her scythe which she had cast aside and turned on her heel. She had asked him to leave her alone but he had been persistent. Still, with no desire to end him, she maneuvered her way across the scorched roof to the edge. She took one last glance back at him as she wrapped the blade in cloth, then without a word, she jumped. Once on the sidewalk, she headed off towards the park in the center of the city. The rose gardens there had become her favorite place over the last few days.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sapphire let her head fall down on the counter as she talked to her friend from work. She released a deep groan as they rang up her newest stack of books. "I take it your date didn't go so well?" The question was answered only with a glare, that seemed to be ignored entirely. "Ah, Sapphire. I'm sorry but you always get your hopes up. Men like the one's in these books, are a rarity if they even exist. You should just give up."

Dropping the cash on the counter, she snatched the bag up and frowned. "I think you are wrong, Mandy." She said softly, hugging the books to her. "He is out there and when I find him, You'll be sorry." Mandy only laughed and leaned over the counter, kissing Sapphire's forehead. She was an older woman and had a very motherly way about her. With a smile, Sapphire left the book store and set out towards home.

A door silently closes, and lights turn on in a small apartment. Icaru walked over and collapsed on the small wood framed bed. The window was always cracked for fresh air to get in. When even the smallest breeze blew through that opening, Icaru's eyes would spring to life. It was his call that there was another who needed his protection, and he would search for it even if there was no clue as to where. It was when he heard that call, that he would gather his equipment, and wear that white robe. Then he would gather up his blade, and cover his face with a small white scarf. His instincts would take over, and he would do anything in his power to protect those in need. Though that was only when the wind called, on the outside he acted like a weaker Sekirei, walking amongst the people appearing to be unsuspecting. His secret must remain safe, or else those who needed protection, may not be safe themselves.

The whistle of the wind did occur, and it was not but five seconds for the window to fly open. The equipment was gone from where it was hidden, and Icaru had already disappeared. With the wind on his side, jumping across buildings was rather easy.

-------------------------------------------------

Ferrin walked along a street, every now and again stopping to press his head up against a window to check inside. One of the times he interrupted a couple eating their meals. In reply to their angry glares he knocked on the window and every time they would look he would tilt his head and smile. Though when they decided to call a manager over and point at him, he decided it would probably be best to run off.

Ending up near the town square, he just sat down on one of the benches and stared around at the people. " Geez, is it always so boring around here?" Unfortunately he was just recently fired from his job for making people think that the meat was actually consisting dogs and cats. "Something cool has to be out there right? Something that would blow peoples minds off?" He stood up in a random guys face, asking questions as he got worried looks. "What if there was a giant bomb that was about to go off, or aliens invaded." He paused for a moment, and made himself look dead serious. "Wow, what if we actually had attractive ladies around here?" He laughed, knowing that the lady beside him was probably his wife. Though that enjoyment died rather fast as his eyes fell upon an unattended police motorcycle. He walked over, and the keys were actually in the ignition. "Ohhhh yaa, thats what I am talking about."

Alistair wakes to the sound of loud noises and yelling. He blinks his eyes a few times and then looked around him. He sees that he is in the park, he starts to get a headache and he presses his hand against his face. He then thinks to himself “”What happened to me, last thing I remember was being at a party and then everything else is so foggy.”” Alistair starts to stumble a little he regains his balance and then he starts to blink his eyes again. Alistair walks around the park and then he walks over toward a tree, but he doesn’t notice a garbage can in front of him and he trips over it and lands on his face. Alistair laughs at himself, he then feels the guitar case that his strapped to him holding him down. He takes the case off his back and then gets up. He walks to the tree and leans his case against it, he then leans himself against the tree and falls asleep.

Mariel had been a few feet behind a man, when he tripped over a garbage can. She stepped forward to help but was caught off guard by his laughter. So when he left the garbage can just the way it was and moved to the tree in front of them, it annoyed her. Standing it back up, she picked up a few things but kept one of the cans. Her gaze fixed on him and with one well aimed throw, she bounced it right off the side of his head. Then she continued towards him, with every intent of simply walking by. Still, she found herself staring at him to see if the can would even have an effect.
~~~~~~~~~

Removing one of the books from her bag, Sapphire read as she walked. Like normal, she got lost in her book but this time someone took notice of her. It was a few blocks to her apartment and she knew her way well. When she turned down a side alley, a couple of guys followed her. It wasn't until another pair of guys turned down the alley in front of her, that she looked up from her book. The two in front of her smiled and thinking nothing of it, she smiled back, until she felt two arms slide beneath hers.

She squirmed, trying to escape the grip of the man holding her with little success. His grip simply tightened until she gave in from the pain. There was a moment of shock as she realized what was going on, her book falling to the ground. Her bag was snatched and she ignored the snickering comments as they looked at them. One of them slipped her wallet out of her pocket to count the money, while another took a bit to much interest in her. As he brushed her cheek, her head twisted and she bit his hand, tearing deep. In return, she received a punch to the gut, causing her to spit his blood all over his face.

Still despite that she tried to pull away as he touched her face again. "Fiesty." Was all the man said as he leaned in closer.

Alistair opens one eye and says " you know, it's not nice to throw things at people." He then rubs his eyes and stands up, he looks at the girl, he couldn't take his eyes off of her for some reason, she seemed like an interesting girl. he walks up to her and says "so may I ask the name of the beautiful lady who threw this at me." Alistair picks up the can and throws it into the garbage can.

-----------------------
Van walked down the sidewalk happily. he waved to some of the people as the stared at him because of his armor,he decides it would be best to keep out of sight to not scare people. Van turns into an alley when he see men gathered around a young woman, he then sees what is really going on. He runs up to the man who is close to the woman and presses his shoe agains the man's face and then sends him flying. Van looks the woman in the eye and thinks about what he is about to do. He shakes his head and grabs the girl by the waist and then lifts her over his soulder and he then jumps up to the roof of the building. he places the woman down gently and says "I'll be back i have to get your things back." Van closes the face guard of his helmet and then jumps down. Van uses his shield against the men making them drop the things they stole. Van then picks it all up and says to them " I think should all leave, you should be ashamed of yourselves picking on a woman." Van shakes his head and then jumps back up to the roof to give the woman her things. But before he gives them back he looks at the book she was reading and smiles.

Icaru was gliding across the rooftops, the constant stream of wind following him. Only reaching the strongest current as his feet landed on the next surface to launch off of. Though when he saw what looked like a couple on some of the nearby rooftops, the current quickly changed, and forced him down into the nearest alleyway. If normal people were to see him, then the last ones he wanted to was the people sight seeing. It was only a minor inconvenience, he would simply have to remain to the alleyways until he was completely out of the two were gone. The last thing he needed was people to go around talking about him, it would only force him to protect even more people.

----------------------------------

Ferrin rubbed his hands together excitedly, as he climbed onto the bike. This was just the spice he needed. "Hey you get off that bike!" A voice behind him shouted, it may have been the owner, a cop. Ferrin did not want even more trouble from his old man, he had no choice now. He started it up, and sped off down the road, almost throwing himself off from the power. People whizzed past, as well did vehicles. But the next thing he noticed he was going straight through the park, and then straight into the pond. When he popped up out of the water he had a stupid grin, noticing the two men in blue uniforms already standing there waiting for him. "Oh geez.." He scratched at his head, knowing that his old man was going to give him hell. Why did his grandpa have to be the chief at the police station?

The cell slammed shut, "Oh come on grandpa! Aren't you over doing it this time?" Ferrin whined shaking the bars. He did not want to be inside the cell with all the other captives.

"You broke the law, you can at least sit in there until I get my leave!" The old man shouted back at him, going back to his desk muttering something about being in a cage with criminals might set him straight.

"But you work the night shift! I don't want to be stuck here until nine am!" He stared at the old man, hoping for some kind of pity, but all he got was an angry scowl. And the only available seat was the one next to someone who was arrested for being some drug addict. "I'll just.. Sit here on the floor..."

As the day grew on, the attention span of Aziza grew shorter. She'd been spending all day on a roof top, sun baking while observing the people below. She eventually had gotten tired of that and had leapt down, now sliding within the masses of people that crowded the streets on a daily basis. The girl didn't mix well at all either. First of all, she had golden tanned skin with contrasting sunset eyes. Then she was adorned in Egyptian clothing and golden artifacts. And she was taller then most of the girls. She swiftly moved through the people until she found a good enough area to rest. Aziza was in the local park, sitting ontop of the bar of the swings, legs kicking gently beneath her. She loved Oasis, but wondered why she looked so different from everyone else.

"I wonder when I'll finally meet my Ashikabi.. And be winged."

Aziza's expression grew solemn, hand resting on her chest.

"Self cremation awaits me if I do not hurry..."


She smiled, and continued to swing her legs back and forth, humming to herself quietly, eyes closing. She enjoyed the heat that flourished inside her body, lips curling up as she observed the sky.

"You know, it's not nice to throw things at people."

Mariel shrugged softly. It didn't matter if what she did was nice or cruel. He left the trash on the ground and that wasn't something she really was alright with. He ran up to her and she stopped in her tracks, looking at him. She stared at him for a bit, seeming to take in even the little details about him. Then with a soft smile, she motioned for him to follow her. As she continued on towards the Rose gardens, she gave him her name. "Mariel." He had called her beautiful, the least she could was answer his question.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"I'll be back i have to get your things back."

Sapphire opened her eyes slowly and realized she was sitting on a roof. Her hand pressed against her stomach. She hadn't been hit in the stomach since she wrestled with her little brothers on their moms small farm. That had been years ago though. Standing up, she went to the edge to see who had helped her and how he had managed to get them to the roof so fast. She raised an eyebrow as she stared at Van from the roof. She had to be insane but she was almost certain he was covered in armor.

She stumbled backwards in surprise as he simply jumped to the roof, nearly tripping over her own feet. She took her stuff back and noted his smile when he looked at her bag. It was a handsome smile. Shaking her head, she thanked him softly. Then unable to resist, she reached out and touched his armor. "W-what are you?" She asked softly, more to herself then him but loud enough he could hear.

Alistair was in awe at just the sound of this girls name, Mariel, She was so interesting and yet she seemed to be the type of girl who could hold her own against anyone. Alistair could tell Mariel had a sweet side to her, he couldn’t wait to see it, but even if he never got the chance to see her other side he would still enjoy the small amount of time with her. Alistair followed Mariel he wondered where she was taking him. Maybe she was going to rob him, or maybe she was going to show him something. He had no idea what it could be but his mind was solely focused on her.
....................................................................................................
Van looked at Sapphire, when she pressed her hand to his armor, he felt so warm. He could tell this girl was someone special, he wondered if she could be his ashikabi, she seemed like a nice person and very interesting. Van then heard her ask “What are you?” Van smiled and said “well you seem like a nice enough person so I will tell you, I’m a sekirei, you see sekirei are kind of like humans but with strong powers, and you see we are devoted to our master that’s is known as an ashikabi, and I think you might be my ashikabi.” Van stared deep into Sapphire’s eyes, he wondered how she would feel about what he had just said, if she would even believe him.

Antionetta walked through the quiet neighborhood listening to the sound of her heels on the cement. A large pair of headphones sat around her neck, The soft melody of Dante's prayer flowing from them. Her voice was soft as she sang but still beautiful.


When the dark wood fell before me
And all the paths were overgrown
When the priests of pride say there is no other way
I tilled the sorrows of stone

I did not believe because I could not see
Though you came to me in the night
When the dawn seemed forever lost
You showed me your love in the light of the stars

Cast your eyes on the ocean
Cast your soul to the sea
When the dark night seems endless
Please remember me

Then the mountain rose before me
By the deep well of desire
From the fountain of forgiveness
Beyond the ice and the fire

Cast your eyes on the ocean
Cast your soul to the sea
When the dark night seems endless
Please remember me

Though we share this humble path, alone
How fragile is the heart
Oh give these clay feet wings to fly
To touch the face of the stars

Breathe life into this feeble heart
Lift this mortal veil of fear
Take these crumbled hopes, etched with tears
We'll rise above these earthly cares

Cast your eyes on the ocean
Cast your soul to the sea
When the dark night seems endless
Please remember me

Please remember me
Please remember me, ...


She had spent the evening before learning the lyrics to that song. She stopped outside of a family owned Italian restaurant. Looking in the window, she caught a glimpse of her mother at the cash register. Her father, well known for his food, was busy working in the kitchen, shouting orders and cooking. She smiled slightly. This was one of her two jobs. Here, when she wasn't waiting tables, she was payed to come to the restaurant in cute costumes and sing songs requested by the customers. Today, however, there was no costume. Just a white tank top, blue jeans and some black boots.

Icaru was back at his home soon enough. His gear was stuffed away in their hidden places throughout the small room of the apartment. He failed to find any to protect, perhaps they did not really need him around anymore. Either way the result was always the same. He would leave through the door making every single light go dim but never off. The room fell quiet, and even the wind would stop blowing through the open window.

He nodded to the man that rested in the room two doors down and to the right of his. That man was the owner of this place and it seemed like even he was short on his years left. Down the stairs, to the immediate left was always a young girl, possibly the mans granddaughter of about eighteen. She was usually on the phone with her friends, trying to disguise it as business calls. Nevertheless she was vital to keeping this place running, for the old man was getting far to weak to climb down the stairs and stay busy for hours on end.

And just like that, Icaru was back out onto the streets walking amongst the people of Oasis. In a way, he was exactly like the granddaughter, disguising himself so he could go about normal in the humans world, just like her phone calls. Though one could say that the streets were always full of chatter and loud noises. Icaru noticed every breathe, the way anyone could control air adding their own pitch to it. But sometimes, everything seemed to just fall quiet, and all he could hear was the wind blowing pas his ears.

Mariel pressed a hand against her chest for a moment, trying so hard to ignore the pounding in her heart. In an attempt to take her mind from it, she spoke up. "So, You've got mine. What is your name?" Turning into the gardens, she found a bench to sit down. Breathing was becoming a little difficult and she knew what was going on. She settled her hands on her knees and leaned forward slightly. Her gaze was on him. Her Ashikabi. To think that they would meet this way, was far from what she had expected. Her eyes drifted to the sky turning beautiful reds and purples as the sun was starting to go down.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sapphire pulled her hand away and looked at him for a moment. She took a deep breath as she thought about what he said, her gaze never once moving from him. Then with a small smile, she nodded. "Alright. Well, I think we need some dinner." Softly looking around, she placed one hand on her hip. "Mm, Do you think you could put us back on the ground?" This was a lot to think about and she needed to do it in the one place she felt truly safe. This guy was a surprise that she had not counted on. So she made up her mind that she would invite him back to her apartment. There she could think and make a good meal to thank him.

Alistair stared at Mariel, he then said “ My name is Alistair, it’s a weird name for someone to have I know, but I like it makes me sound so important.” Alistair chuckled a little and then sat down next to Mariel, he looked at the garden and then back at her, he felt that the beauty of the flowers could not rival the beauty of this woman next to him. But he could never tell her that, she was different than any girl he had ever met and by giving her such a cheesy and somewhat unimaginative complement would be disgraceful. Alistair said to Mariel “ so, I guess you really like this place right?”

Van smiled at Sapphire, he then said “ sure I can get us down.” Van walked over to her and picked her up in his arms, he jumped down off of the building, and landed on the ground softly. Some people stared in awe, while others just kept walking. Van wasn’t very subtle, but he got things done. Van let Sapphire down and said “ so shall we go eat?”

Mariel nodded softly and let out a soft, relaxed sigh. "It's beautiful." She said simply. There was no other explanation for it. No where in this city had she been able to find more peace or comfort when her search started to beat down on her. Today, It had brought her Alistair. He had sparked her curiosity and she had so many questions but no clue where to start. Turning slightly so she was facing him she smiled. "So, tell me a little about yourself, Alistair." She liked his name. He wasn't wrong about the certain air of importance that came with it as it rolled off the tongue.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sapphire bit her lip as she stared at him for a moment. He seemed like something straight out of one of her books. To perfect to be real. Without any real warning she pinched her arm, just to see if she was. She winced slightly then giggled at herself. "Mm, Yes. I was planning on inviting you back to my apartment.." She found herself blushing a little. She had never invited a man over and it was a little, nerve wracking. "but before we go, I realized that I have not introduced myself. My name is Sapphire. And you are?"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A soft slow song came to an end as she entered the restaurant. There was applause directed at the waitress, Jennifer, who had been singing but the attention was drawn away as a small group of children ran from the small dance floor to Toni. She knew these kids well. They all lived nearby and their families often spent dinners here because to many the restaurant felt like a second home. This was the way her father had often told her it should be. Food and fun bringing people of all kinds together. "Antonietta, Get up here and please this crowd. I'm exhausted." Jennifer laughed into the mic before stepping down. It was nice to see that the news was spreading about the restaurant. As she looked around she saw many faces that she didn't recognize and still many that she did.

"Alright, Alright." She said softly to the children hanging on her arms. Lifting one of them up, she poked the little five year old in the nose. "Do you plan on clinging to me while I sing? Or should we sing together?" The small girl giggled and shook her head but clung to Toni still as they approached the stage.

Alistair looked around and said “ well ok, but don’t tell anyone I don’t want to be attacked by enemy spies, but I’m a secret agent for the government.” Alistair chuckled a little and said “ I’m just kidding, I’m really a guitar player, I don’t really have a band right now, so I’m just flying solo until I can get a good band. Other than that there is nothing really to tell, I mean I come from a weird family, only child..” Alistair then let out a cough and said under his breath “ and my family owns their own island” Alistair looked at Mariel and smiled hoping she didn’t hear him.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Van smiled at Sapphire, she looked so amazed by him and he didn’t know why, he thought he should be amazed by her, because he had found his ashikabi so fast, he could feel she was his ashikabi and she was a beautiful woman, so he knew it had to be her. Van said to Sapphire “ My name is Van, and it’s quite the pleasure to meet you, but you don’t have to invite me to your place, we could eat at a restaurant.” Van wanted to see Sapphire’s home, but he didn’t want to just barge his way into her life.

Icaru looked around at the the different stores and restaurants, listening to the growl of his stomach for needed supplements. He managed to actually find one that he heard others talking about. Something to do with waitresses singing or something. Either way he just wanted food. Perhaps he could get one of those tasty 'steaks' as they called it. To him it was more or less just a slab of meat, but either way it was both good and filling. Even if the place did not have steaks he would simply look through th.. Icaru twitched slightly, he did not know how to read. "Well thats an inconvenience.." He muttered to himself as he moved to the waiting line. Hopefully he could get a booth near the window.
--------------------------------------

"One needle two needle.. THE FUZZ HAS GONE MAD MAN, THEIR TAKING OVER" The druggy randomly started screaming and rolling around on the floor. None of the police seemed to give a crap. However this action did manage to creep Ferin out even more.

"Oh geez" He pushed his back hard against the bars and buried his face into his knees. Maybe he could manage to smother himself unconscious or something.

Mariel shrugged softly when he mentioned the island. It meant very little to her if his family was rich or poor. Money had little effect on her as she found its only use for her was food. She opened her mouth to speak but then stopped, her head turning slightly. "One moment." She said quietly, standing up. With two long strides, she moved over to one of the bushes and reached in and yanked the young boy out. He was still injured from their little run in earlier but determined all the same. He didn't appear to be much older then 15.

"Why didn't you finish the fight?" He demanded. When she shrugged, he glared at her even more. His gaze shifted to Alistair for a moment and then back to Mariel. "Well, then.." His hand started to glow a soft blue. A icy shard shot from his hand, but he didn't notice how fast she had removed the large scythe from her back. Its cloth had instantly unraveled and the ice had merely shattered against the hard metal.

With what seemed like very little care, she tossed the boy to the side. With a small flick of her wrist, a single lightning bolt shot from the sky landing directly beside his head. There was a fierce anger in her eyes that he had not seen in their last fight and yet she had still missed on purpose. "Care to try that again?" It was an invitation all wrapped up with the intent to kill if he took it. When he shook his head, she wrapped the scythe and returned it to her back. She moved over to him, gripping his shoulders, and lifting him to his feet. "I don't wish to fight. I despise it. Do not attack him or me again. Go find your Ashikabi, Young one." It surprised him how quickly she had changed from dangerous to gently and motherly.
As he left the garden, she turned to Alistair and bowed her head softly. "I'm very sorry. I suppose you would like an explanation?"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sapphire shook her head. "Nonsense. I'm a very good cook and I would like to make you a good home cooked meal." She said softly. "Besides, We are only three blocks away." She motioned for him to follow her and then headed down the side walk. She was really quiet until they reached her apartment. She unlocked the door and walked in. She hung her keys up by the door and walked down the small hall to the main room. Two of the walls were lined with book shelves, filled to the brim with books of all sorts. In the middle was a glass table with a stack of notebooks and a small black and orange kitten sleeping on top. "Alright. Make yourself at home."

She set her bag down on the table and sat on the edge of the bed that sat in the right corner of the room. Her hand reached out and stroked the kitten, whose ears perked up. It gave her hand a small lick and then noticed Van. Almost instantly, the kitten jumped down and wandered over to him. He sniffed curiously then rubbed against his leg for attention. "Oh goodness, Vlad. Let him settle in first." She giggled.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Jen handed the microphone over and then whispered something to Antionetta. They both glanced over at Icaru and Toni smiled. Something about him just seemed interesting. Still, she had a job to do. So she set the young girl down and hopped up onto the stage. Jennifer had already walked over to the line as a few other people were seated and smiled. "Welcome to our happy little home. My name is Jen. If you would follow me please, we will get you seated." She said to Icaru as she plucked up a menu and glanced back at the stage. The band was settled and Toni was removing her headphones and removing her backpack.

Alistair stared at Mariel for a few seconds and then said “ well, um that’s something I’ve never seen before, but you don’t have to explain it to me if you don’t want to everyone is allowed to have a few secrets right?” Alistair smiled at her and then stared up into the sky, he wondered if she was going to tell him what exactly just happened. Alistair wasn’t afraid of what Mariel might tell him, because he knew that Mariel was a good person and she wouldn’t tell him she was some kind of assassin or something like that. Alistair chuckled a little at the thought and the looked at Mariel.

Van smiled at the Kitten and picked it up, he slowly petted it and said “it’s ok your kitten just seems to be a little curious about me” Van leaned against a wall still petting the kitten, he looked at the bookcases with all the books and smiled, Van could tell that Sapphire was a book lover and he thought that was very interesting. He wanted to get to know her more, but he didn’t want to just ask, he wanted to wait for her to bring it up.

Icaru quietly followed the girl who called herself Jen. With all the people around it made him feel discomforted, but at least if things went wrong here he could blend in. He had to wait for the girl to stop and turn around before he sat down. Then all he did was look around, spotting the small band. This at least confirmed that the rumors he heard were correct, but one of them did not look like they worked there. "I thought they said that waitresses sing, I didn't know it was a karaoke place." He spoke to the girl who helped him find his seat. It was puzzling as to why people needed specific seats in these places, but at least they served food in the end. "Sorry for bothering you but, what is your personal favorite that this restaurant makes? Thinking about trying something new.." That was his way of trying to get around the menu, hopefully it was going to work.

Mariel found herself smiling at his reply. She stepped forward and couldn't stop herself from hugging him. There was absolutely no way that she was wrong and that much she was certain of now. "You shouldn't be so understanding. Its dangerous." She whispered softly in his ear before releasing him and stepping back. Sitting down beside him, she took a deep breath. "Well, let's see. I guess the best place to start is to tell you what I am. I am one of 108 Sekirei's. We are much like humans except that we have powers, as you just saw. At the moment all of us are in this city and with the exception of a few rebellious people, searching for Ashikabi. The Ashikabi are humans and our masters, to whom we are devoted." Turning to Alistar, she took a deep breath. "And I believe that you are my Ashikabi."

Sapphire watched him as he picked up Vlad and leaned against the wall, petting him. She smiled softly and then stood up. "We don't get very many visitors. It isn't at all surprising that he is curious." As she said this, she walked across the room and into the kitchen. She turned the oven on to preheat and then walked back to the kitchens doorway. "So, Do you read much?" She asked. Now that he was here, she wasn't as nervous as she'd been but the silence drifting on in her apartment was starting to bother her.

Jen giggled softly when he called the restaurant a karaoke place. "Antionetta is the owner's daughter and she is a waitress. They aren't very strict on the dress code around here." She explained as she set the menu on the table. "As for my personal favorite, Mr. Mancini makes delicious crab ravioli's. So What would you like to drink?"

On the stage, the music started finally.

So, she says it's time she goes,
but wanted to be sure I know,
she hopes we can be friends.

I think, yeah, I guess we can say I,
but didn't think to ask her why,
she blocked her eyes and drew the curtains
with knots I've got yet to untie..

What if I were Romeo in black jeans
What if I was Heathcliff, it's no myth
Maybe she's just looking for
someone to dance with....

"Oh.. sorry." Bringing his hand up to his head to wipe off a small bead of sweat, Icaru spoke softly, "Must be nice working in a relaxed environment then." He leaned over to glance around her, wanting to see if the girl looked anything like a waitress without the proper outfit. Then he looked up at Jen and scooted back into his seat, half embarrassed. " Uh, just a small cup of tea if I could. And that crab ravioli does sound kind of good." He paused again looking around, at all the nearby people. Some were rather young, and some rather old. This must have actually been quite the little restaurant to attract such crowds. Then noticing that the girl was still right there he spoke again, thinking back where he left off. "With the owners daughter here doesn't she get a little pampered?"

Jen giggled slightly when he leaned forward to look around her. Writing down his order, she shook her head softly. A lot of people thought that same thing about Antionetta. In truth, it didn't really seem that way to her at all. "I don't think so. I'm sure you'd get a mixed set of answers if you asked around." She answered. "Any pampering she does get, she makes up for by being the least selfish person I know. She works two jobs, balances her college work in between that and I happen to know that one of those two paychecks goes to charities ever time. Not a single penny spent on her. Well, I'll be back with your drink in just a bit." With that said she walked away.

Icaru leaned back when Jen walked off, smiling at the small things she said before leaving. Working two jobs, just for one of them to go towards charity, so not everyone was as selfish as he originally thought. Even his nodded head to the music, until he leaned his head back waiting for the drink to arrive. "Perhaps if the food is good I will come here more often. It is just a few blocks from my apartment after all." For a few moments he was actually tempted to close his eyes and fall asleep. The music kept the voices around him from bothering him, and the seats were just rather comfortable.

Jen returned with his tea as the song reached its end. She didn't stick around to talk as she had a tray full of food in her other hand. She unloaded at one of the other tables and then headed for the stage. She whispered something to Antionetta, who proceeded to hang the mic over to a waiter this time. Antionetta stopped by several of Jen's tables and then finally reached Icaru. She smiled slightly. "Hello. My name is Antionetta. Sorry to disturb you. It's time for Jen's break so I'll be taking care of you from now on." She said softly.

Icaru jumped slightly at the new voice, wondering where exactly the waitress of his table went. Only a second took place before he noticed that it was actually the girl who was singing earlier. She definitely did not look like someone who would be a waitress. "Uh..." He paused, trying to collect his mind back together from the confusion. " I heard you sing, it was rather pleasant.. Don't normal restaurants keep it as a waitress per few tables? Then again, with you all singing like that, I guess exceptions would be made.." When he tried to look back at the table he jumped again noticing the drink sitting there. He did not even see someone walk by and put it down.

"Its a nice little place..this restaurant I mean, a new place." He paused, noticing that his sentence was skipping around. Still slightly spooked from the voice just coming out of no where. To him it could have been one of his enemies finding him. " Sorry, I am being odd. I might come back often, it seems like a nice place. Hopefully the food is just as good, then I will be here every night!" He chuckled softly, wondering how he would manage to even keep paying for the food. And if he always ordered the same thing it may be suspicious. "I am Icaru." He tried to bring himself back to the table, but then remembered where he was. "Wait I didn't need to say that.. Geez, my head is cloudy today, must have been from hitting the ground so hard after seeing those two..."He drifted off speech noticing again where he was. "Uh... Hi?"
