based off of the book by cynthia hand unearthly and this is a remake of my old roleplay. http://www.cynthiahandbooks.com/p/books.html http://www.roleplaygateway.com/roleplay/your-purpose

Introduction

To those of you who haven't read the book that is fine! You can still roleplay if you would like!

Image
Ever since you were born your parents have told you that you were special. You would never believe them though when they said it because most parents would tell you that you’re special in your own way. They would also often lie about you about the littlest of things and sometimes about the biggest things. What would you say if you never got sick? If you drank bad milk and didn't get sick afterwards? You didn't know why though and when you told your parents they would say that they didn't know and that you shouldn't worry about it.

It wasn't until you were thirteen that you started to feel like you were actually different. You had these random visions and dreams but they were all the same. They were about a certain person, place and time. The problem was that you had no idea who it was, where it was and when this thing was going to take place. After telling your mom or your dad or even both of your parents they told you what you were. You are an angel.

There are people out to destroy you, this is one of the reasons why your parents have informed you that you are an angel. They want to protect you, but there is no hiding it now. It is up to you to try and keep yourself secret from not only the humans but others that are very much different from your being. All the while you have to try and fulfill You’re Purpose.

Image

Your purpose is very important. It is something you have to do as an angel, not only do you save a life but you also learn who your soul mate is. Who you have been assigned to. Purposes will come in two way, you will see these purposes in a vision- these can happen randomly- and in your dreams -this happens when you are asleep obviously. If you so happen to have a vision you will end up passing out, no matter where you are or what you are doing you will be knocked out for what seems like forever to you but isn't that long at all. It is only a few minutes then you are back up like nothing ever happened. While you are passed out you can see what will happened. You have no idea when it will happen, who it will happen to, or where it will happen. All of this you have to figure out by seeing the time of day, and seeing the person. You have to figure out every detail. For example if someone were to have a vision or dream about their purpose it is a possibility that they would see a boy standing at the top of a burning hill. The person could smell the burning trees, they could see the darkening sky as the sun started going down. If they look closely they would notice plants, trees and other things that would only be located in certain places. Taking in more of the scenery and what was going on they would also know that skies were also giving away to clouds that threatened rain to a dry area of which they are at. As soon as the person opens their mouth to yell as they scramble their way over to the boy standing at the top of the hill they end up gasping awake. Instantly you are out of the visions. This is kind of the same way the dreams go except you wake up in a bed and know that it was a dream.

Now that you know a little bit about what would happen when you get your purpose you must also know that you will have more than one purpose in your angel life time. As an angel you can't not fulfill your purpose or you will pay for it. Not only do you have to worry about not being able to fulfill your purpose but you also have to worry about people who will try to stop you at all costs from filling your purpose.

Image

Angels: You should already know about these but there are more to angels then you think.
-Quartarius: 25% Angel
-Dimidius: 50% Angel
-Triplare: 75% Angel.
-Full Blooded Angel: 100% Angel.

Black Wings: These are also known as Fallen Angels. They are just like Angels but instead of having pure white wings they end up having pure black wings. They are pure evil and they are anything between Dimidus to Full Blooded angels who have either turned evil or were born that way.

Humans: Humans are normal people, some will be seen in visions some will become a angel's soul mate and some will die because of an Angel decided not to listen to God any more.

Prophets: Prophets is someone who has a massive amount of Glory put into them which turns them into a Prophet because they end up being able to control a small amount of Glory even if they are not an Angel. The only reason they can't be called an angel is because they do not have wings so they cannot fly.

Image

Image

Angels and Black Wings have several powers, each type of angels are different. They all are able to control more or less powers than another type of angel and even they are able to possess different powers. Quartarius's are able to fly and heal little cuts and fix bruises by using a power called Glory. It is used by only Angels because they are the only ones who are able to control the power. Angel Dimidius's can fly, heal fractured bones and make small virtually useless weapons out of glory. Triplare's are also able to fly though they can do much more than Quartarius’s and Dimidius's can do. Triplares are able to also heal broken bones and help people if they are getting close to death. Triplares are also able to make strong weapons with Glory that could kill a Black Wing, another thing they can do is teleport to places quickly, but all of this needs a big amount of concentration for them to be able to do. Finally for Angels you are able to do pretty much everything that Triplares can but they are the strongest, they can bring people back from the dead if God allows them to, they can bring happiness and joy to everyone they come into contact with (except for Black Wings) and they also do everything without much concentration.

Black Wings are different they are the opposite to all the types of Angels. Instead of weilding Glory they weild Sorrow that can take out any Angel. It is possible for them to remove the soul of Angels if a Black Wing is able to make a Dagger of Sorrow. It causes severe pain to whoever is stabbed by it and it is the only thing that can actually really kill an Angel. Most Black Wings are unable to fly due to their Sorrow that weighs them down so they end up turning themselves into Ravens so that they can travel easier. Their Sorrow also can weigh people with light hearts down and sometimes even paralyze them from being able to use their powers.

Finally Angels and Black Wings are able to be born with a certain power that no one else would have. They could have the power to control the weather in a certain area or it is a possibility that a Black Wing could transfer pain to a person when they have physical contact. Not everyone would be born with another power though.

Image

Oh yes, that’s right I almost forgot. Now I am sure about what all that information had to do with anything. Why they could possibly ever need to have a Glory sword or possibly a Sorrow Dagger. This all leads up to one event that could determine everything. Everyone lives in Wyoming at one point and time which means that you will all be going to the same school which is called Jackson High School. You have your friends, you have your problems and then you have those unexpected events that go one. What are you going to do? You are only a Dimidius or you are only a Quartarius and you aren't as strong as the Triplare. Everyone has to pitch in though, Angels must defeat the Black Wings because then what? What do people have to live for if Angels are to die off? Black wings would take over and Angels can't let that happen. Everyone must choose your side, will your wings be tainted black for betraying God or will you stay with the light? Be careful of who you spend your time with, keep your friend's close but your enemies closer. Oh and don't forget that you still have a purpose to fulfill. Tick, Tick, Tick. You better hurry up and step up your game or not only will you mess up your purpose and someone innocent will die but also you might mess up those who are working to fight against the Black Wings.

It’s a war between Angels and Black Wings that only seems to be getting bigger and bigger. Who will win though? Anything is possible, but what you do is just another step in the right or wrong way. Will the Angels be able to save Earth in time before the Black Wings over power the Angels?

Good Luck.

Image

Hallowed grounds are something that angels have created. They created these lands just so that if they need to they can escaped from Back Wings. These lands are holy which means Black Wings want nothing to do with them. They stay far away from the grounds because entering them would be a big mistake. There aren't that many hallowed places in Teton County, Wyoming.
Here are the places:
There are a few homes in Teton County that are hallowed ground not every house is a hallowed ground though. The cemetery, Jackson High School, and a pizza place down the street where people usually spend their time with their friends after school.

Image

On One last note before you are able to take a look at the characters available. Angels live longer than humans, they live to about 150 years of age and pretty much the only way you can kill them is if they are stabbed with a sorrow dagger. This is the same thing with Black Wings except they don't get kill by a glory sword they just turn good. This all takes place in the 21st century. Not everything is 100% accurate. I have changed a few things and added my own tiny twist to it. If you have any questions feel free to ask me though I am pretty sure that I have listed everything. Also the soul mates are not set in stone, take a look to make sure who you know that you will end up with in the end. Each character will come with a description. Finally you do not have to have read the book to play this, it is all up to you. Thank you and I hope you have fun!

Image
Liam Barristan|Triplare 2 | FC: Max Irons | Triplare 1 | Taken by RubyBlue

Dimidius's:

Image
| Dimidius 1 | FC: Erin Heatherton | Human 2 | Open
Dimidius 1 is the girlfriend to Triplare 2. She doesn't know he is a Triplare, and she doesn't even know that he is an angel blood. She has been having a scary purpose of where Human 2 is falling but she doesn't know where or why he is falling. She has no idea who it is because she never pays attention to someone like him she has to find out who it is before time runs out. She will end up with Human 2.

Image
Flynn Avery| Dimidus 2 | FC: Francisco Lachowski | Will end up being a Black wing | Black Wing 1 | Taken by RubyBlue
Dimidus 2 has enough problems in his life so when he starts to get his purpose he doesn't want to follow it. He refuses to go the way that people want him to go. He hates seeing someone (Human 1) close to death near a car wreck but a part of him doesn't care. A part of him just wants to run off. Someone might just die because of his rebellious actions. Will end up with Black Wing 1.

Image
| Dimidius 3 | FC: Alex Pettyfer | Human 1 | Open
Dimidius 3 is a mysterious boy. He has the looks but he prefers to hang out with the shy girls. He doesn't go for being extremly popular unlike other boys. His best friend is Dimidius 2 who has been telling him about his visions. Considering that his best friend doesn't want to save an innocent person (Human 1) he is going to save the person for his best friend. Dimidius 3 has also already fulfilled his purpose.

Quartarius's:

Image
| Quartarius 1 | FC: Taylor Momsen | Quartarius 2 | Open
Quartarius 1 is in love with Black Wing 4. She is a sweet, loving girl but that can get the best of her. She has a strong heart, but when it comes to Black Wing 4 she can't help but to push that aside and act totally different. Black Wing 4 tries to convince her to ignore her purpose that has to do with Quartarius 2.

Image
| Quartarius 2 | FC: Dylan O'Brien | Quartarius 1 | Open
Quartarius 2 is a boy who enjoys to just keep to himself. He doesn't talk much so when he started having his purpose of Quartarius 1 being killed he wasn't sure what to do. He has a hard time talking to people, and she always seems too busy to talk to someone like him. This was going to be harder than he thought.

Image
Elsa Brookes | Quartarius 3 | FC: Allison Harvard | Quartarius 4 | Taken by Issa
Quartarius 3 is obsessed with learning everything about her angelic self. If her face isn't in a book then she is outside in a hidden place and she is using her wings to fly around. So when her purpose had to do with Quartarius 4 she tries everything in her ability to figure out what is going on and why it had to be him of all people. Sometimes she disappears for long periods of times while others you can't get rid of her. Her purpose has to do with her trying to save someone from a forest that is burning down.

Image
Michael Stratos| Quartarius 4 | FC: Colton Haynes | Quartarius 3 | Taken by Zodia159
Quartarius 4 is best friends with Triplare 2. He does several sports, making him a popular person at his school. He talks to Quartarius 3 a few times, and looks over at her when she sits at a table by herself in the lunch room sometimes so when his purpose started it was a complete surprise to see her in his purpose.

Humans:

Image
Abigail Tennyson| Human 1 | FC: Felicity Jones | Becomes a Prophet | Dimidius 3 | Taken by Zodia159
Human 1 has no idea what’s going on. She is a completely lost girl and often has no idea what is going on. She doesn't talk much, but when she does it comes out so softly that you can barely hear her. Weird things have been going on around her and she doesn't know what to do so when Dimidius two and three starts talking to her more, she begins to open up to him a little though she is still terrified that he would hurt her since he only seems to be more and more depressed each day.

Image
| Human 2 | FC: Ezra Miller | Dimidius 1 | Open
Human 2 is always getting into fights, is doing things he shouldn't be doing, and he often skips school because he doesn't want to be there. He is dating Triplare 1 and he truly loves her no matter how messed up he is. He doesn't ever want to lose her but there is a chance that his life might be cut short or that they won't be together for a long time because of the fact that he doesn't know anything about her and her purpose. He will end up with Dimidius 1.

Image
Daphne Constantinides| Human 3 | FC: Tulisa Contostavlos | Prophet 1| Taken by BleedingLover
Human 3 is that girl who likes to dream big. She is very artistic and always is able to think up big ideas. She is a fun person to be around even though there are things that no one knows about. Her life isn't as amazing as everyone makes it out to be. Prophet one will try his best to impress her, they are soul mates but they don't know it yet.

Image
| Human 4 | FC: Lucas Till | Prophet 2 | Open
The all country boy. Human 4 is a complete gentle man, he lives near the border of Tenton County on a ranch and plans on working on that farm for most of his life. What he doesn't realize is that Prophet 2 will be there to help him.

Prophets:

Image
| Prophet 1 | FC: Chace Crawford | Human 3 | Open
Prophet 1 was saved by his ex-girlfriend who accidentally dropped him when she took him for a fly. She felt so bad that she used as much glory as she could to bring him back to life. It did, but when he had woken up she disappeared and was never seen again. Now he is crushing on Human 3.

Image
| Prophet 2 | FC: Lily Collins | Human 4 | Open
Prophet 2 has her problems, after overdosing with one of her best friends she ended up passing out. The next morning people thought she was dead. Her friend flipped out and used her glory to try and heal her. By accident she ended up using too much which turned her into a prophet. Now she has the power to control a little bit of a Glory. All she needs is some help from Human 4 to get away from her problems.

Black Wings:

Image
Ember Stirling| Black Wing 1 | FC: Megan Fox | Dimidius 2 | Taken by Ever
Black Wing 1 use to be a Triplare angel. She decided that being good was no fun though. She joined a band, which she became the lead singer she stopped listening to her purpose, someone died and she didn't care. She tries her best to bring other people to the bad side and she is not some one that you would want to mess with.

Image
Hank Saunders| Black Wing 2 | FC: Matt Bomer | Black Wing 3 | Taken by Me
Black Wing 2 doesn't take anything from any one. He is one of the biggest, meanest Black Wings out there and will stop at nothing to get what he wants. He commands other Black Wings to bring him angels so that he can either turn them into Black Wings or so that he can destroy them. He doesn't want anything to stop him. He doesn't ever joke around so be careful of what you say around him. He currently has a small thing for Black Wing 3.

Image
Angelica Maelstrom| Black Wing 3 | FC: Kristen Bell | Black Wing 2 | Reserved by Zodia159
Black Wings 3 has an innocent look to her. She looks like the kind of person who would be an angel but she just doesn't care about anything. She never has. She is different from most girls who look like an angel because she is anything but an angel. She helps Black Wing 2 to keep order and she has been developing small feelings for him.

Image
Kevin Johnathan | Black Wing 4 | FC: Ash Stymest | Black Wing 5 | Taken by Chiaki Hamano
Black Wing 4 got in the wrong group of kids. He got stuck in a gang, did things that he didn't really want to do, ignored his purposes and ended up running away. He once lived in California before his family moved here. After that he had turned into a Black Wing from depression and ignoring his purpose. The only thing that is actually making him even a little happy is his attraction towards Black Wing 5 and Quartarius 1 who he will soon give up for Black Wing 5.

Image
Trinity Raven| Black Wing 5 | FC: Nina Dobrev | Black Wing 4 | Taken by Purpl3_Flam3s
There is nothing that Black Wing 5 won't do. She doesn't take crap from anyone, she was born as a Black Wing and has lived here her entire life. Her entire family was killed by angels and their glory which only makes her want more revenge on them. The last person she considers as her family is Black Wing 3 who is like a mother to her. She doesn't even notice the attraction that she has to Black Wing 4 and that Black Wing 4 has towards her.

More characters can be added if it is needed also if they are requested.

Toggle Rules

Image

1.) No god modding. It’s no fun when people do that.
2.) Be descriptive! I don't expect a novel but somewhere between 200 and 600 words would be nice.
3.) Make sure that you character is descriptive when you make it
4.) Spelling and Grammar must be good. Please. I am not great at Spelling and grammar myself but let’s not have any text talk here and tons and tons of spelling and grammar issues.
5.) Your character can not be perfect. No one is perfect not even angels.
6.) Follow Roleplaygateway's rules please.
7.) Romance, try and keep it PG-13 at least. Also don't do a million posts about someone kissing. If you feel it’s necessary, fade to black and take it somewhere else. Save people's eyes.
8.) Stay active. Please don't let this RP die. I am not asking much just that if you are busy that you post at least once a week or tell me that you can't post any more so that I can do something with your character.
9.) If you have read this far then you would know that the password that you will put in the OOC is your favorite animal when you reserve a character.
10.) When you make a reservation, make it in the OOC and please don't message me.
11.) You MUST have your character(s) done within 48 hours or that spot will no longer be reserved for you.
12.) Also I would like it if you could take both a male and a female character.
13.) I will allow you to change the Face Claim (FC) of your character once if you would like to.
14.) Keep the drama IC and not OOC.
15.) Interact with everyone. We need drama in this roleplay!
16.) I hope I don't sound like a commander but I want this group to be successful. :3
17.) I know this is a lot to take in but it is important that you read everything.
18.) One of the most important rules is to follow these rules and to HAVE FUN!

There is a chance that there could violence, swearing, and a small amount of sexual content. I don't expect much of sexual content. If you can't handle that then this is probably not a roleplay that you should be in!

Date: Wednesday, November 13th, 2013
Time: 7:30 which is 1 hour before school begins for the day
Setting:
Today is what some people call as a pretty gloomy day. There are dark clouds hanging over Teton County, Wyoming giving the usual lively city a bit of a dark feeling to it. Even though it is early in the morning and most people would want to be asleep others are awake, getting ready for the school day, thinking about skipping class, or they are the few black wings who are just now getting ready to plot how to either get angels to join them or even how they can destroy them. Now here we are at 7:30 in the morning on a cloudy day. Everyone is now doing their own thing.

Paisely tossed around, her vision coming to her right before she woke up. There was points and times when she just never wanted go anywhere and never wanted to go to bed because she hated having her purpose. When she has her purpose all it is darkness. The sound of their breathing is the only thing you can hear before the light began to flicker, is this a subway? She would think but it isn't when the light flicks on it’s like the whole Earth awakens and the entire place that they are at begins to shake. The room they are in come crumbling down onto them. She can feel the weight pressing on her chest, she tries to find her voice to call out for him. She thinks she knows his name but then she can't get it out. It’s like she is being choked. Its dark again, the light flickers on and off as she tosses stones and broken pieces of wall off of her while she tries to make her way over to Triplare 2. Just as he begins turning towards her someone comes crashing through the door, a Black Wing, everything goes dark again. When she glances over at him all she can see is the back of his head. She thinks he is talking but can't be totally sure. One more time, all she needs is for him to turn around one more time just so she knows who to look for, though, when he turns towards her she feels herself jolt back to life.

Her hand slowly goes to her forehead, feeling slightly light headed for some reason. Some times when this happened she usually guessed it was just because of her purpose but there was a good chance that it could just be something different. When she sat up in her bed her hands went to smack her bed sheets. It wasn't until she glanced over at her clock when she realized how early it was. "Oh no way I am getting up this early," She grumbled to herself as she flopped back onto her bed.

Here she was, staring up at the ceiling because she wanted nothing more than to just fall asleep. Though after about half an hour to an hour of just lying there she had a feeling that wasn't going to happen. She gritted her teeth angrily then shot up out of bed. Fine, if that's the way it was going to be then there was nothing she really could do. Now she had to just get ready for the day. Throwing herself in the shower, changing into her usual outfit, and eating her breakfast she decided that with the time she still had left until she needed to be at school that she would go for a little bit of a ride. This was all just so she could try to either wake up more or just so she can make herself late for school if it was possible.

Hank's eyes shot open when his alarm clock kept repeating its annoying rooster alarm. With a soft angry huff he rubbed his eyes tiredly. He was one of those men who liked to get up early and go to bed early mostly because the earlier he got up the more he could get done during the day. That is his opinion though, it probably wasn't too accurate but who said he really even cared? It was up to him, and he had to carry on a legacy by taking care of work that needed to be done. What was the legacy he was taking on? Well that's a good question, anyone would know that he was trying to get angel's to join him. That was a better way than trying to destroy them but if it came down to it than he had no problem doing such thing if it was needed.

The man ran a hand through his brown hair with a sigh he drowsily got out of bed and dragged himself into a shower. His usual routine went on, take a shower, prepare for the day, eat something, and then go to check to make sure that nothing was out of place around where the Black Wings would occasionally meet.

As he left his house he noticed how gloomy it looked outside, he felt nothing about it though and actually thought that darker days were better than sunny days. Mentally he was hoping for rain because he enjoyed the rain even if the expression on his face didn't really give people any ideas that he actually enjoyed anything. His sorrow often radiated to other people especially those who are light-hearted and easily feel bad about something. Those are usually the people he likes to go after, and use his sorrow to his advantage. He wasn't the nicest person mostly because he liked to use things against others.

Finally after walking in the darkness of the cloudy sky he made it to a large wooded area which hidden behind the trees was a medium sized wooden cabin. This was the cabin that the Black Wings usually met in, no one knew about it, it was abandoned and to a lot of the Black Wings it was a paradise. This was their only choice unless they all wanted to meet down in hell but no one really liked going down there for meetings. I mean it wasn't too private, there were always people listening and plus it wasn't like a 5 star hotel. It was really hell. So here he was standing near the cabin, looking around and scanning the area to make sure no one decided that they wanted to spy on them or anything. With the tensions becoming very bad between Black Wings and Angels you could never be too careful. When he was sure that no Angels were near he quickly hurried into the cabin then went to go sit down on a couch until the other's arrived. From what he was hoping, he had hoped that they would actually wake up early and they would show up a little bit earlier than they usually did. It all depended though, so why he laid there he just began plotting up ideas on how they would recruit or destroy other Angel's.

Elsa Brookes was awake. She had been since dawn. She had had another vision last night, the fire in the forest. It disturbed her more than she could say but there was also the sense of, well, Purpose that it gave to her. Whatever her visions meant she would sooner or later figure out just what she was meant to do.

But for now, as the sun rose slowly, Elsa was happy to stay awake and read in her room, floating above her bed. Or, at least trying too. Hovering with wings was not as easy as Elsa had expected. She could stay aloft fairly well but the act of staying in one spot, and spending as little energy to stay there, was more difficult. She also had to watch out for the four walls and ceiling of her room, all five solid objects that would generally come out on top should she lose balance. The current of air her white wings produced sent the papers on her desk rustling to the floor. She could see a page of unfinished homework, due today, flutter each time she bet her wings. Elsa made a mental note to make sure she completed it before the class.

A loud thumping noise interrupted Elsa's thoughts and before the girl could answer Vera Brookes opened her door.
"Darling, get down from there." Her mother said absently, stalking through the room and opening a window. The day outside was overcast and dreary, Elsa would much rather have stayed home and read.
"Your father and I are leaving tomorrow for Costa Rica, we'll be gone for two weeks at the most." Her mother said, waiting for Elsa's feet to reach the floor before handing her a list. "I've put all our emergency numbers on the list and Mrs Morrison's next door." Elsa glanced wordlessly down at the lengthy piece of paper. Every possible emergency had been covered with a few, to the point notes and a number to ring in the event that the notes were not enough.
"What about a black wing attack?" Elsa wondered aloud. Vera tutted at her daughter,
"Nonsense, why would they attack you?" She replied. Her hand came up and tugged a blonde curl free from the messy knot Elsa had put it in, "Besides, we've gone over what to do. Find Hallowed ground and stay there until reinforcements arrive." With the brisk instructions over Vera departed, leaving Elsa to wonder at the organisational power that was her mother.

Elsa glanced at her bedside clock, 7.30am. School would start in an hour and the piece of undone homework was staring at her.
Downstairs she could hear her mother loudly instructing her father on what to pack.
"I'll try the school library." Elsa muttered to herself, hoping that it would be open this early. She collected her scrambled collection of notes, gathered up her books - school and novel alike - and placed them in her school bag, a low hanging black backpack. Elsa slung the bag over one shoulder and walked towards the door. Catching sight of herself in the mirror, she paused, dropped her bag and turned towards her dresser. Pyjamas were not ideal clothes for school, no matter how comfortable they were.
Ten minutes later, dressed in a much more respectable pair of denim jeans and white shirt, Elsa finally set off for school.

Waking up early was never really Kevin's strong point. He had always promised himself that he would sleep early so he could wake up early the next day but somehow, Kev always ended up staying up late and then woke up even later. It was also very annoying that the leader liked to meet in the early morning. Like today for example.

6:30 A.M

His alarm clock went off - a loud, shrieking sound that made Kevin want to smash the damn thing to pieces. 'Don't...You'll need it later' His sleepy mind grumbled and Kevin sat up, rubbing his tired eyes. His appearance was worrying, he knew that. The bags under his eyes had darkened considerably since the last time everyone had met, like he hadn't slept for days and he had gotten lighter, too. Well, he supposed he could just play being stupid and hoped the others wouldn't notice. Their concern was hear-warming but misplaced. He could take care of himself perfectly fine.

Stiffened a massive yawn, Kevin stood up and walked to the bathroom to begin his normal routine, stumbling half of the way there. He brushed his teeth, combed his hair and put on his normal clothes - white t-shirt, black jacket and jeans. He looked at the mirror and slapped himself lightly to make sure he didn't look too tired, Kevin made his way toward the front door. Today was a gloomy day, he noticed with a small smile. Well, that was good. He liked gloomy weather, not because people would be sadder or anything cliche like that. He just liked it because he wouldn't have to deal with the sun and its annoying light. Kev covered his mouth with his hand as he yawned loudly again, earning himself a few odd look from the people on the street.

Once again, waking up early was never Kevin's strong point.

He stepped into a dark alley and looked around. Good, there was no one to be found. He could do his things more easily then. A crow shrieked and Kevin looked up, raising an eyebrow. 'I wonder if that's one of them...Well, whatever' He shrugged and let the sorrow embraced him, turned him into a black raven. His eyes gleamed and with a cry, Kevin took off to the location where the his family often met with each other.

Flying was an amazing experience, Kev had soon discovered that. He could feel the wind through his wings, and he felt like he was free. Of course, flying with those big, fluffy white wings had their advantages like they could personally enjoy the fly in their human forms but flying in this form was always more awesome, that was the conclusion Kevin had reached after a while. It was strange for the first few times, flying and seeing things through the eyes of a bird but he had quickly gotten used to it and ever since, he had always preferred to fly to a destination if he could instead of taking the bus or other means of transportation.

The journey was short, however as Kevin saw the cabin came to view. It was abandoned for years but the condition of it was still good, much to Kevin's surprise. 'Well, certainly better than Hell anyway' He thought dryly...but then again, anywhere was better than Hell. Personally, Kevin had come to Hell a few times before, mostly out of curiosity but as soon as he had arrived there, he just wanted to go back. The atmosphere was hot, too hot for his liking. Plus, the moans and screams were loud and annoying.

Kevin, still in his Raven form, landed on a nearby tree and let out a shriek. He looked around, carefully to see if anyone was foolish enough to follow him. The humans wouldn't but Kev would never try to put it pass the Angels to try and do just that. 'Redemption my ass...I don't need it' He waited for several long minutes, making sure no one had really followed him 'Bad habits kill good ninjas or something' It was a quote he had read in one of his silly mangas. He had liked that quote a lot.

Finally decided that no one had followed him, Kevin flew through the opened window and landed in front of Hank, making sure that he had turned back to his human form just in time for a dramatic entrance. "Leader..." Kevin greeted, kneeling on one leg and used his left hand to support himself. With that being said, let's not forget Kevin was one for dramatic things. He waited for a few seconds before standing up, brushing a few dust here and there. "Good morning, sir...I hope you have a good night sleep?" Kevin said jokingly and brushed a few stray of hair out of his eyes. It seemed he was the earliest one to arrive today. Good for him.

Kev took out a few broken branch that had stuck on his head when he transformed into a raven and studied his surronding. From the look of it, his leader hadn't even arrived here much longer than he did. Kevin grinned. 'I win this bet! I can certainly be the earliest person arriving here for sure!' He cheered mentally. Still smiling, Kevin crossed his hands and waited for the others with barely contained energy. No matter if he stayed up late last night and had to wake up early this morning, he still had energy. That was more than some other people already.

Ever the early riser, Abigail, or Abby as she was known. Woke up before dawn. Having lived on a ranch for several years, she always woke up early to help with the horses for an hour before getting ready. When it was 6:00 am, she stopped and went back to her room. She took a quick shower and changed into a clean pair of jeans with a regular creme colored blouse. It was still warm enough, so she put on sandals. She lived in Wyoming long enough to know that summers were short so whenever it was summer, she took advantage of it. Abby braided her chestnut brown hair loosely, with several strands loose before making sure she had all her things together. She looked at the dark sky and figured she out to bring her umbrella too. Before doing anything else, she heard a knock at her door.

"Abby! Breakfast is ready!" her mother said.

"Thank you mother." the 16 year-old said.

Coming down to a hot breakfast, Abigail saw that her mother made homemade cream of wheat this morning, which was her favorite. The family had a cow, so they had their own supply of milk too. As Abby sat down, she quickly prayed with her family before eating. The teenager was adopted into a family with 5 sons. All her older brothers were adults now though. The two eldest were now working at the ranch, but the other 3, two being twins, were off at college. The Tennysons wanted a daughter and decided to adopt an older child and Abby was at the right place and the right time for them to find her. Her adopted mother, Heather, called it divine intervention.

"So did you sleep well dear?" Heather asked.

"Yes ma'am. No nightmares." Abby replied.

Every now and than Abigail was prone to nightmares, most having to deal with her early childhood. The middle age woman smiled. Minutes later, 3 men entered the dining room and sat down to eat. One was Abby's father, Curtis, and the other 2 were her oldest brothers, Curtis Jr. or CJ and Rick.

"Did you three take her dirty boots off?" Heather asked.

The three man looked and saw that they didn't.

"Well than, you can clean up the everywhere you tread dirt in." Heather said pointy causing the men to groan.

"I am going to finish getting ready now. Thanks mother, breakfast was great." Abby said before cleaning out her bowl and class.

It was 7:30 am when Abby got into her small Chevy truck to go to school. She lived a good 30 minutes outside the city and it would take her another 10 minutes to get to school.

Trees were surrounding him. Michael felt trapped and found himself running, trying to get out. He saw a figure, and ran towards the person, but that person seemed to be getting farther away, no matter how fast he ran. Just when it seemed like he was getting closer, a loud noise went off. It was 7:30 am.

Michael woke up with a start and looked and saw it was his alarm that went off. Turning it off, Michael sat for a few minutes. It was the same dream again. The dark hair teenager knew it was a dream about his purpose. What was frustrating though was that he couldn't figure it out yet. Something told him he was starting to run out of time.

"Mike! Get up! Or you'll be late!" his mother shouted from the other side of his door.

"I am up." Mike replied.

He wasn't a huge fan of mornings, but neither was he a grump in the mornings either. Getting, Mike got dressed for the day in no time flat. It actually took him longer to fix his hair than decide what to wear. When he got it just right, Mike went and grabbed a bowl of cereal. Grabbing his backpack and cell phone, Mike looked outside and frowned at the weather. It be a big pain if it started raining at practice today. Grabbing a jacket, he headed outside to the garage where his Dodge Ram 3500 was. He might be a Quartarius Angel, but he liked being an teenager too and right now most of the popular guys at school were seeing who had the bigger truck. Before he could pull out of the garage though, he mother came out.

"Don't forget your lunch!" she said handing him his lunch that he forgot to grab.

"Thanks mom. What would I do without you?" he laughed.

"Never get anything done. Have a nice day sweetie." his mother laughed.

Michael waves and pulls out. In the back of his mind though he was still thinking about his purpose.

Angelica groaned when her alarm went off. The woman stretched a bit, taking her time to get up. When one was as old as she was, she enjoyed taking her time. Besides, the black wing had plenty of time to get ready. She was more concerned with her charge, Trinity Raven. Still, she trusted the black wing to take of herself. Getting up finally, Angelica ranged for food service. One great thing about humans was they could do things for you and you didn't have to lift a finger. Angelica and Trinity were living in a high end piece of real estate and had a few servants, which included a maid, cook, and butler. All three were humans and firming under Angelica's power. So basically they were her slaves thanks to the intense Sorrow Angelica brought upon them. The only reason they hadn't committed suicide was because Angelica played with their minds into thinking she was their reason for living.

After the dark wing ate her breakfast, she got ready for the day. She knew Hank was expecting her and Trinity at the cabin soon and Angelica always took his word seriously. She dressed in a tanned colored pantsuit with pink blouse and pulled her blonde hair into a sleek ponytail. Putting on heels, she went to make sure Trinity was up. Not even bothering to knock, she opened the door of the other dark wing's room.

"I am leaving now, Trinity. You best leave soon. You know how much Hank dislikes waiting." she said before leaving.

The sky was dark with clouds and that made Trinity smile. She turned into a raven and took off. Being fully aware of her surroundings, Angelica made sure to avoid any of the hallowed grounds and angels. There would be time to play with them later, but business before pleasure. Soon she made it to the cabin and making sure no one had followed her, she turned back into her human form and unceremoniously went inside to see both Hank and a young black wing, Kevin.

"Trinity will be here soon."

All business now, Angelica sat down next to Hank and waited for the others.

"I am leaving now, Trinity. You best leave soon. You know how much Hank dislikes waiting." Angelica's voice seemed to be the only source that could wake her up. Her alarm clock was on the other side of the room, with broken parts scattered on the floor. She'll just find a place to repair it and if that deemed impossible than Trinity was gonna buy another. Simple as that. Trinity slipped out her bed with the sudden burst of energy she had. Once she was awake, she was awake. Trinity walked over to her bathroom and got ready.

Trinity stripped out of her clothes and stepped into the shower once it was hot enough. She loved the feeling of it on her back. Made her feel good and officially wake her up. She quickly washed her hair and body and stepped out. She wiped the fog of the sink mirror and brushed her teeth. She brushed her hair out, letting it air dry. Trinity didnt have time to blow dry and perfect her hair. She ran a towel through her hair before exiting the bathroom and going straight to her closet.

Trinity was not like most girls. She knew what she wanted to where in the morning. A black sleeveless top, with faded grey jeans, a black beanie, and her favorite black converse. Simple right. Trinity made her way downstairs and was handed a bagel with butter. Trinity made sure she was given breakfast in the morning. She was very lazy. She quickly ate up her breakfast and sprinted out the house. She was let enough. Trinity didn't want Hank mad at her more than he could be right now. That sent shivers down her spine.

Quickly she let the sorrow take over and she turned into a black raven. The irony in that. Her eyes were darker than coal and her feathers shined dark. She was magnificent. Like she always bragged to herself. Lately her Wings, were making her slower and slower and soon she wouldn't be able to use them. As Trinity flew to her destination she couldn't help but smirk at the weather. It was all doom and gloom today. Perfect.

Trinity turned back to her human form and walked up the cabin. Any human teenagers wouldn't dare walk here. It was a pretty scary sight, but to Black Wings, it was a walk in the park. Trinity opened the door and smiled sheepishly. She knew she was late, but Angelica looked like she was just settling in so she couldn't be that late. "Hey guys." She greeted before sitting down next to Kevin.

Hank grumbled to himself, turning onto his side on the couch when he heard someone shift right outside the cabin. For a second he was dazed, only to shoot up from the couch and looking towards the door only to see one of his own walk into the cabin. Rolling his eyes at Kevin he glared at him, unclenching and clenching his hands into fists. This was something that he did to relax just a bit when he was either stressing out or when he was frustrated.

"Leader..." Kevin had greeted, kneeling on one leg and used his left hand to support himself. This made Hank glare at him more. "This is no time for games Kevin, let’s get serious. You were late, you’re supposed to be on time, and you’re supposed to be here the same time that I get here at least. Maybe even a few minutes after but certainly not as long as it took you to get here. We have things to take care of and you know that." He snapped at Kevin. He flung his finger in the direction of the couch, "Sit. Don't do anything else but sit there and wait for the others to join us." He had totally ignored Kevin when he said that he hoped that Hank had a good night sleep.

Pacing around the room he rubbed his hands on the side of his pants before shoving them into his pockets. These girls were wasting his time from getting done what needed to be done. By the time on of the female's had gotten here he was now grinding his teeth together. He stopped as soon as he heard Angelica land near the cabin, moving to the couch where he sat down and waited for her to enter. Closing his eyes for a moment until she entered the cabin and he looked at her. His eyes raked over her body once before he lifted his head slightly and nodded once to her. "Trinity will be here soon." This was the first thing she had to say to him when she walked in and sat next to him. "Good, she is the only person we are really waiting for except for the other Black Wing but I don't think she needs to be here right now." He told Angelica, her name irked him. Why was it that her name bothered him? Well that is because she had Angel in her name and he knew for a fact that she was most definitely not an angel.

Sighing softly he stood up from the couch, going over to the wall nearest to a broken down fireplace and leaning against the wall. Finally after what felt like forever Trinity walked into the cabin. Lifting his head he let out a soft sigh. "Hey guys." She had greeted everyone and he gave her a small, tired smile. "Hello Trinity, nice to see you. Your late you know." He straightened up, walking to the middle of the room and adjusting his button up shirt. "Ok so as you all know we are getting close to a war and we still don't have enough people to take on those Angels." He paused, looking over at everyone. "We need to work harder, so do what you need to do but stop messing around. Seduce the angels, tell them what they want to hear but you need to get them to join us. Does everyone understand what I am saying?" He asked, then closed his eyes momentarily.

Finally, opening his eyes he stretched his arms over his head. "Anyone want to express any ideas? We have a job to do and we can't let down our ancestors. We must win this for the Black Wings. That means that you can't keep waking up late. Go to bed early if you have to, I don't want to see anyone coming in late. Discuss with each other, do something ok? We need to get stuff done. I know, I know you have only heard this speech a million times, but this is all just so that you get how important it is for us to win." He stopped, putting his arms back to his side and inhaling deeply. "Well let's get going. I have some business to take care of this early in the morning, so do what you need to do. Have fun, mess around with some angels, I don't really care. Just make sure you keep what needs to be done in your mind." With that he waved them over, turning away and jogging out of the door. He knew he could be a hard-ass some times and wasn't the most pleasant man to be around, but did he care? No not really. He has never cared about what the other Black Wings thought about, a job was a job and he always intends on coming out on top.

Once he was outside he shifted to a raven and flew off, scanning from the sky for someone that would be interesting to mess with. He made sure to stay away from any Hallowed grounds due to the fact that he hated them deeply. They were the places that just drove him crazy because every time he tried to get near an angel they would just flee to the nearest Hallowed ground just so he couldn't get them. Damn those Angels, what were they afraid of? He wasn't going to kill them, not yet at least, all he wanted to do was just to mess with them until he got bored. That's not all that bad, or at least that is what he thought.

"Am I still in Wyoming?!". That was Ember's first thought as she approached the well-kept four-story brick house (it was a mansion really), disbelief etched onto her fine features. Scratch that. She was sure it was NORMALLY well-groomed but on this particular night, the sprawling lawn was littered with teenagers who were all eager to try their hand at drinking (but obviously failed seeing their knocked-out stages) with the said drinks discarded. Their owners had long since then lost their interest in the contents of the plastic red cups and ended up littering the lawn with them. Making her way across the yard, the black wing could see the French-styled front doors were propped open by two sofa chairs, almost inviting Ember to step inside the cave of closely-knit bodies, blaring music, and flashing lights that would surely give any person an epileptic seizure.

Almost immediately upon entering the house, the attractive girl received stares. But then again, why wouldn't she? She was far more gorgeous than the human girls here and, with the way she walked with confidence and swinging hips, everyone at this party knew it. Especially with how she was dressed. A small sigh of content escapes her chest, immediately feeling relaxed in this wild atmosphere. Without another moment wasted on sentimental thoughts, a plastic red cup finds its way into her hands from the original origin of a nearby table and she goes to work, diving into the heart of the crowd. She was ready to have some fun.

With a groan, Ember blinks her eyes in protest at the watery sunlight filtering onto her eyes. Coming to, she gives a quick glance around, it taking a few seconds for her location to settle in her mind: a white leather couch with drunken teenagers, all fast asleep, sprawled out around. It was like she was a goddess with her deities surrounding her pedestal. Rolling her teal eyes at the loud snoring that erupted from the other humans, she ignores the pulsing ache in her head and winds up with closing her eyes. Not a moment passes, however, before she shoots up, realizing the Black Wings were suppose to meet today. A slew of curses escapes her confines as she rashly pulls on her high heels, grabs her black Coach sunglasses and purse, before nearly running out the door. With grace, she steps over the inebriated bodies on the dewy morning grass, not pausing a second to kick one in the stomach that was laying in front of her car door. With a flip of her hair, she puts on the sunglasses to help soothe her hangover before peeling away from the house.

Having risen at five a.m. Persephone had been awake for hours, if it was up to her she'd sleep much longer but apparently as she grew older her body needed less sleep. After a leisurely shower, throwing on black ballet flats and a simple blue cotton dress, a quick cup of tea and a thorough read through of the morning paper the angel sighed and tried to stave off the restless feeling she felt growing every day. The petite brunette knew it wasn't just her imagine working overtime, she knew for a fact that events were coming to a head. If the visions weren't so fuzzy maybe she could gain a firmer grasp of what she was supposed to do...or stop, but that wasn't happening right now. She was finding it increasingly hard to concentrate and keep ahold of her scattered thoughts lately.

Exiting her cute one story cottage on a corner lot in a quiet neighborhood, Persephone hopped onto her bicycle, safely tucking her purse and books into the basket strapped to the front. She fastened her helmet and rode for the school which was only half a mile away from her home. Cycling through the neighborhood's tree lined streets she allowed her mind to wander, thinking about her first class of the day, what type of flowers she wanted to put in the back garden and how she was going to gently let down Vince, the gym teacher who'd asked her out to dinner yesterday afternoon. It wasn't that Persephone was adverse to the idea of dating in fact it was quite the opposite. She just had a particular someone she had in mind for this date and it was most definitely not Vince.

Liam rose early and slipped quietly out of his average two-story cookie cutter house, knowing that both of his parents had already left for the day he took off for his daily run reveling in the short amount of freedom he was afforded every day when they were gone. He might have been the youngest of five which definitely had it's advantages, Liam got to act more like a normal kid than any of his brothers, but he was still under an insane amount of pressure to be and remain perfect. That on top of the haunting visions he was receiving more and more often was nearly too much bear.

Focusing on placing one foot in front of the other, his breathing and the sound of his heart pumping fast and strong, Liam was able to momentarily forget the pressures that hounded him. He was much the same when it came to intellectual pursuits, in essence draining himself physically and mentally just so he could get some distraction from all of the noise and confusion in his head.

Realizing he had less than half an hour to get to school he turned back towards his house and slipped in the back door. Taking the time for a quick shower and change he left through the front door and locked it behind him knowing that he'd probably be the first one home anyway. Hopping into the rusty truck that originally had been his eldest brother's and had been in the hands of every Barristan brother since he rubbed the dash gently and encouraged her to start up and last through the rest of the school year. Turning the engine over he shifted into gear and pulled out of his parent's drive.

Heading into the school parking lot he caught sight of his best friend, Michael, doing the same and gave him a quick wave before he haphazardly pulled into a spot. Laughing as he leapt out of the old truck that was still sputtering and shuddering to a complete stop, Liam hitched his backpack onto his shoulders and headed in the direction of the actual school building walking slow enough for his friends to catch up to him if they chose.

Sitting in his car outside of the small one bedroom apartment his father rented for him Flynn lit a cigarette as he rolled down the driver side window. He was contemplating on whether or not he really felt like going to school today, a fight he had in his head every morning he was supposed to be at the place he viewed more as a prison than a place of learning. Flynn wasn't a particularly good student but he was currently passing all of his classes and if he wanted to make this his final year in school he figured he'd probably ought to go. Cursing under his breath he sullenly started his car and began heading in the direction of school.

Checking his phone for a text from his girlfriend, he frowned when he noticed no word from her. it had been a couple days and Flynn was finally starting to get the picture that things might be heading south. Maybe it was because he was a tad bit unreliable, or constantly broke and then there were the fainting spells. Can't forget those.

Every morning he wondered if this would be the day that he'd be put to the test, would he go through with it. Fulfill his purpose and be a good little angel like he was supposed to be or turn tail and run and prove everyone right about it. Tossing his phone into the empty seat beside him he flipped a quick u-turn and headed away from his prior destination. He suddenly wasn't feeling it anymore.

Heading further into the wooded areas that surrounded town he parked his car in one of the camping ground parking lots and headed down to the water, lighting another cigarette as he lightly hopped down to the shore. Copping a seat on an outstretched rock, the moody teenager began to skip rocks across the smooth surface of the lake and began practicing his call to the school later.

"Uh yes, This Ian Avery, My son Flynn Avery won't be able to make it to his classes today. He's quite ill. Thank you." He mocked his father's deep and authoritative voice before he dissolved into soft laughter. "Works everytime." Flynn finished with a sly grin to himself.

Once Abby got to school, she immediately went to her locker. She really didn't talk to anyone simply because she wasn't a social person. One of the busiest times, and loudest, was right before classes started. Students were talking and walking, doing the normal routine. Abby simply got her things for the first few classes. She was always was the first to class and first out the door. Today something had her on edge, and she couldn't explain it. Maybe the noise was getting to her a little more than normal. Closing her locker, she quickly moved and upon turning a corner, accidentally bumped into someone.

"Oh I am so sorry." she said.

((Open for anyone at the school.))

Michael was just getting out of his truck when he saw his best friend, Liam Barristan, pull up before parking. He waited for him to get out before coming over to him.

"I'll give that thing 2 weeks before it goes bye-bye." Michael teased, referring to Liam's truck.

Michael loved teasing his friend. The two of them had been close for awhile now. He didn't envy the pressure Liam was under and often tried to make his day more at ease by teasing him and just acting normally. Of course it was hard to 'act' normal when the two were part of the 'in crowd', Liam more so than Mike though. That was mostly due to the fact that his family was very well connected and Liam was the "Leader of the pack". The young man did get Homecoming King, along with his perfect girlfriend who was Homecoming Queen.

"So how does it feel to have a little bit of freedom with your folks out of town?" Mike asked him.

Angelica didn't say a word as Hank started the meeting. One didn't interrupt the man when he was serious. Than again, Hank always took things seriously, which was something she liked about him. Despite Angelica's own laid back demeanor, she was very serious and didn't suffer fools. So when Hank reminded them how important this mission was, the elder dark wing nodded in understanding. She knew that in the past several years the angel population in this city was growing. Of course that meant more potential dark wings to recruit too. Several ideas popped into Angelica's head of where to recruit them. Younger angels were more easily influenced so the blonde figured the best place was to go where teens hang out after school hours. Plus there were bound to be slackers too. If an angel was already a slacker, they even be more susceptible to her Misery. The only problem was getting a new turned black wing to be motivated to add to their cause and turn other angels. Angelica came across those types of black wings and those were the worst in her opinion. After getting through to them though or Hank having a 'talk' with them. they changed their tune quickly.

When the meeting was over and Hank left, Angelica got her things together and addressed the others.

"Well you heard the boss. I suggest going to well populated areas, especially when teens around. Younger angels are more easier prey. I recommend finding the Quartarius or Dimidius types since they're the weakest. As you know, full-blooded Angels are the strongest so avoid them for their the least likely to turn. If you plan on trying to go after one though, don't do it alone. Have fun dearies. Trinity, supper will be served at 7pm if you're interested." Angelica said before leaving.

Elsa wondered into the school grounds, disappointed to find that her walk to school had taken more time than she had expected. She would have little time to finish her homework now, perhaps if she rushed she might be able to finish a few questions before her first class started. She really hadn't meant to take so long getting to school, but she had dawdled, skimming through one of her books as she walked. She had, naturally, managed to trip over a crack in the footpath and had cut both her knees. Luckily her powers, although limited as a quartarius, were enough to heal those small cuts but her jeans didn't bare so well. Elsa had returned home and changed, another pair of jeans, and then finally made her way to school. This time she had held her book closed in her hands and watched where she walked more carefully.

Elsa entered the school and walked past the car park. She could see Michael Stratos and Liam Barristan greeting each other from their trucks. Both boys were part of the 'in-crowd', a group that Elsa most definitely didn't belong to. Still, Michael was nice. He talked to her sometimes, despite the fact that they didn't have much in common.

Elsa turned her attention from the boys and continued across the car park. Her aim was the library, which was most easily accessed by passing around the school. Elsa passed groups of students, chatting happily together. Elsa had little friends at the school. Her main preoccupation was researching her angelic side, which didn't leave much room for socialising. Still, she could be friendly when she wanted to and now she smiled at a couple of girls who she thought were in her chemistry class. They seemed somewhat surprised but responded positively with a wave.

The library was, thankfully, open this early and surprisingly empty given the amount of activity at the school front. Elsa took a seat beside a large set of windows and drew out her homework. With a sigh she skimmed over the questions, realising that she probably would not even get one question done given the difficulty of the problems and her limited time.
She sat back in her seat and, with another sigh, muttered to herself, "Why do you do this to yourself, Elsa?"

Trinity listened in on Hank's discussion on recruiting more angels and turning them bad. Something that has been bugging Trinity's mind since day one. Stupid angels and there glory. Tainting people with their ways and words. She had the sudden urge to kill one right now, but knowing them she wasn't gonna be able to do it without a cleared mind. Just as quick as the meeting started it ended. Hank got up and left within a second. She rolled her eyes. Typically Hank. But he was probably stressed out so she wasn't going to pressure him like she usually did.

Then Angelica got up, ready to leave too. She went into a speech about how you had to find places full of teens, and be careful, stick together, and supper is at 7. Trinity likes to sum things up a lot. "Bye." Trinity said before Angelica left. She stood up and stretched. She was never good at sitting still. A habit she didn't mind having. "Well, Kevin." Trinity started looking at him who was still seated on the chair. "There's only one place with a lot of teens at this hour." Trinity gave him one of her famous smirks. "That would be the club my friend." She said matter-o-factly.

Without warning she walked towards the cabin doors and opened them letting the damp air hit her like a title wave. "Race ya there? She questioned before turning into her charcoal raven and flying towards the local club. No countdown to 'go'. Trinity liked to win, even if it wasn't fair and square. So what? A win is a win right? Her eyes searched the town until they caught the sight of the lights that highlighted the club. She tucked her wings in and dived for it. She was totally going to win this.

Ember gives a soft sigh seeing their usual meeting place as she pulled into the lot and she couldn't help but wonder if she was late. Glancing at the dashboard clock, she frowns at the time: 7:05 am. "Yup. Definitely late. Way to go, Emb." she mutters to herself, killing the engine. Cautiously, she opens the door to stick her head out, eyes scanning the sky for any sign of Hank. Seeing no trace of their leader, she lets out a soft sigh of relief and a "Thank God".. Of course the "God" part was done sarcastically. Even though Ember was the first of their group to be a black wing, she still didn't like responsibility of leading a group. So, naturally, she passed up the chance and gave it to Hank. Though she was sure she could easily take him on due to her power of fire, Hank still wasn't someone you'd want to piss off, no matter what. A shudder racks her slender shoulders as memories of the time she had made their leader Black Wing angry flood her mind. Let just say she'll never wake him up from a nap to shine a flashlight in his eyes again.

Swinging a heeled foot out of the fiery red car, she frowns feeling the grass practically suck in her heeled boots. Heels + grass = hell. Giving an aggravated groan, she swings her other leg out before waltzing across the grass trying to remain in as little of contact with the dreadful vegetation as she possibly could. Wincing with each step she could practically feel the grass staining her beautiful new Jimmy Choos. After what seemed like an eternity, Ember finally reached the door and bursted up the wooden steps to the porch; her heaven. She wraps her slender fingers around the handle before grumbling to herself in annoyance "Hank just had to buy the house in the middle of fucking nowhere!" before slinging the door open.

Walking in, she heads to the kitchen not bothering to yell if anyone was home. Whistling to herself some tune she heard on the radio on the way here, she nonchalantly picks up a bright red apple, tossing it up in the air and catching it repeatedly. Unbuckling her heels, she tosses them aside, ignoring the fact that they hit the leather couch and fell with a thud. Taking a bite out of the apple, Ember jumps up in the air, almost hanging there briefly before falling down to the couch. Reaching for the remote and pressing the buttons, the tv flickers to life displaying a sitcom. Ember's nose wrinkles in disgust and she rapidly flips through the channels. While in the midst of channel surfing, she decides to toast her apple slightly. Suddenly, flames erupt from her hand holding the apple, engulfing the poor fruit in the flame.

"Hey man, I think she heard you. Don't hurt Mona's feelings or she won't get me home later." Liam joked with Michael as the other boy fell in step with him. Making their way through the crowd, Liam nodded and waved at a number of people as he jogged up the stairs and entered the building. "It is definitely a relief. I get to stay up until eleven now on weekdays. You can't imagine the freedom." The tall boy smirked and answered Michael. The boys had been friends since Michael moved to town and if anyone knew what Liam's parents were like it was him. They were strict, a bit cold, and didn't often pay attention to their children except to encourage them to pursue and complete their purposes as soon and flawlessly as possible. Sometimes it got a bit much and Liam took refuge at his friend's house, where no one expected him to be anything other than him.

Heading in the direction of the library where he usually spent his mornings finishing homework or doing extra credit Liam shrugged slightly as he dismissed anymore thoughts of his parents. They were blessedly gone to see through their current purposes and were at ease with Liam staying home alone. After all he was a triplare and their home was on hallowed ground. A black wing would have to have a lot of nerve to attempt to turn or attack him. Coming to a halt when he noticed a lone female figure sitting at the table he usually preferred he glanced at his best and smiled. "I'll study, you flirt. This'll work out perfectly, she'll keep you from distracting me the whole time." Liam teased as he reached out to playfully nudge his friend's shoulder as walked over to Elsa's table and took a seat across from her.

"What did you do to yourself, Elsa? And also Good Morning." Liam said to the girl he knew mostly by sight as he shrugged off his backpack and pulled out an orderly notebook. Flipping it open he took out his science book and a pen and began making notes, occasionally glancing up to let the others knew he wasn't ignoring them.

Hopping off her bike she left it in the bike rack without a lock knowing that she wouldn't have to worry about anyone stealing. There were a few bad eggs here and there but she had yet to come across one. Taking off her helmet, Persephone shook out her long dark hair, trying to bring it back to some semblance of style. With a small shrug to herself she smiled brightly at the students she passed and tripped up the stairs lightly. With a small groan she realized she'd entered the hallway at the exact same moment as Vince and feeling not quite up to letting him down yet she quickly whirled around and hurried around the corner. Paying no attention to what was in front of her and only wondering if she'd been sighted, the Angel ran smack into a student she recognized as Abigail Tennyson

"Oh, Abigail! No, I'm sorry. I wasn't looking where I was going and I've nearly knocked the breath out of you. Look at you poor thing." Persephone cried out as she reached out to steady the girl before her and going into full on nurse/teacher mode. Persephone made it her job to know her students, their names and usual demeanor, who they hung out with and what their home lives were like. She'd always taken a special interest in Abigail due to her quiet and introverted nature, not mention her turbulent family life...at least before she became the Tennyson's daughter.

"That's what I get for not looking where I'm going. Running around tackling students. They'll take my certificate away. " Persephone joked lamely, noticing the teenager's slightly on edge vibe and being quite the nurturer the angel couldn't help herself. "Are you feeling okay, Abigail? You know, you're more than welcome to have a lie down on a cot if you need a moment to recover."

Elsa was busy frowning at her homework, willing it to become done when two students wondered over to her table.

Elsa jumped in her seat as Liam Barristan sat at the table with her, pulling out a science book. This in itself was enough to make Elsa shocked, but it was the person with Liam that made her want to shrink into the seat. Elsa glanced behind Liam at Michael and quickly turned her focus back to Liam. She wasn't usually nervous around Mike but his appearance had caught her off guard.

"What did you do to yourself, Elsa? And also Good Morning." Liam asked.

"Homework." She answered with a sigh of defeat, holding up said homework. It looked sad and empty. "It's due today and I've left it far too late."
Elsa could and should have done it earlier but her concentration had been focused on a new book she had found that had some information on Angels. It was, she discovered, information she already knew but she had spent the last two nights skimming through the book and re-reading passages in case there was anything new for her to learn. As a result her school homework had been neglected.

She placed the sheet back on the table and held her pencil in her hand, still trying to figure out how to act.
"Why am I so nervous?" She thought to herself, gripping her pencil slightly too hard in her hand. She didn't normally get this anxious around Michael, or anyone really. She usually breezed through life at her own speed, taking most people in her stride.

She took a short breath and finally managed to look up at Michael,
"Have you done it yet?" Her question was directed at Michael but she lost her nerve at the last moment and moved her head to include Liam in the question too.
