"The world's ending"

Angel laughed, soft and gentle but it still sounded wrong.

"Everything's ending, Aki."

"The world's ending"

Angel laughed, soft and gentle but it still sounded wrong.

"Everything's ending, Aki."

Aki's eyes widened for a second, what type of joke was that?

He steps forward to Angel, he doesn't move an inch from his spot.  "Angel, where are we?"

The other covered his mouth, trying and failing to hide his chuckle.  It was irritating, to say the least because Aki wanted answers before his brain melted trying to understand where he was.

Everything was white, like hospital walls and tiles.  At the same time, it felt dark, with Angel's halo being the only source of light.  There was no wind, or sun, or cold, or heat, there was nothing to feel at all.  Angel was still in his work suit, with the sleeves rolled up so that part of his bare arms were visible.  His shirt is untucked, his hair is tousled and messy, and he glows and looks as perfectly unreal as a painting.

(Maybe he is unreal, he was the angel devil after all.)

Looking at his partner makes him feel ever so slightly better about his situation, so he opens his mouth again to ask another question.

"What do you mean everything's ending?"

Angel's smile dips, his expression closer to the deadpanned look he usually had.  He stops bouncing on his heels too.

"I mean what I said, directly, you haven't suddenly turned stupid have you?"

Aki doesn't know what to think of the answer.  He felt unsettled by the way Angel was acting, first smiling and giggling and swaying like a kid and now acting closer to the Angel that he knew but still off.

Also, there was the whole everything ending part.  Angel wasn't the type to say cryptic stuff and then leave him to figure it out himself, even now that was true. 

But everything ending sounded pretty terrible.  Denji and Power would be freaking out if the end of the world just hit them suddenly.

(The thought of the two puts a lump in his throat. 'Would they be okay?' is all that runs through his head.)

"Aki, don't look so worried, please."  The hushed voice of Angel comes back and shakes Aki into reality(?) again.  This time he's much closer, and he's on his tip-toes to reach Aki's face.  He caresses his jaw tenderly, letting the tips of his gloved fingers brush against the other's skin.

"I know you think too much, but it'll be painless. Just close your eyes and look as pretty as you always are."

In a blink Angel's feet are off the ground, his wings cover Aki's view and then everything smells like gunpowder and smoke.  He's terrified, scared of the moment, scared that he could only see clear white feathers, and scared that he could only smell scents that meant death.
