<Y/n p.o.v.>

Well we're currently laying low.

I asked Ika to get Asia and I some groceries whilst Asia was asleep.

He was kind enough to make us some breakfast too.

Once he delivered it we ate before we decided to watch some TV.

We decided this day would be about information, the next would be when we'd decided to move on out.

"So Asia, tell me about your story and I'll tell you mine" I said.

"Ok...but could I atleast where your shirt again, it's comfy" She asked.

She blushed a bit.

"Keep looking that cute and it's gonna get harder to say no" I said.

She giggled before putting on my shirt.

"When I was a baby I was abandoned by my real parents. They left me in front of a church in a small town in Europe. I was told when they found me I wouldn't stop crying. The sweet Nuns there brought me up. One day when I was eight a sad little puppy who was hurt real bad found it's way into the church where I lived. I prayed as hard as I could that God would spare him, and when I did a miracle happened" She said.

"Your Sacred Gear" I said.

She nodded.

"Because of my power I was immediately taken to a larger church. Men and women from all over the world would visit when they were injured or sick, and I was told to heal all of them. The idea that I possessed this thing that could actually help other people made me so happy. I finally felt like I had a purpose" She said happily.

"I'm glad you wanted to help people. I thought you were pure before but damn...your parents didn't deserve your purity" I said.

She hugged me happily.

Then her face turned a little sad so I held her close.

"But then one day I came across someone who had fallen and was in bad shape. I was able to heal him but...he wasn't a man" She said.

"He was a Devil wasn't he" I said.

"They called me names and threatened to kill me" She said.

I hugged her tightly.

"Not on my watch" I said.

She giggled.

"They said anyone who had my kind of power was a heretic so I had no choice but to run away" She said.

"And after you ran you made it to the Fallen Angels' grasp huh" I said.

"Yes, but I'll never forget who I am. I say my prayers and try my best to live a good life. They're awful. They do such horrible, evil things and all in the name of God. This suffering has to be a test of my faith. But if I can overcome these trials someday I know, my hopes and dreams will come true. That's what I believe anyway" She said.

"What are your dreams, I'll try to make them come true" I said.

She smiled.

"To make lots of life-long friends. To get to know them well and do cool things. To be able to have fun together, and care for each other. It's kind of silly" She said.

"Your dream is a beautiful one. I love making friends cause the ones that stick around end up being the coolest ever. And if your one of those friends then you and I will do many cool things together. My brother would probably adopt you as his little sister and he'd take care of you all the same. Either way my friends are my family and I'll protect them to the bitter end...do you wanna be my friend, Asia Argento" I asked.
