"The city of fallen angels.. This is not the place I imagined i'd spend my teenage years at."
- Aries O. Martinez.

"I can't believe you finally paid off your debt. So you're really leaving next week.. huh?" Aries mumbled softly to her friend Sevyn. Sevyn had been avoiding Aries for almost three days to push off the conversation they were currently having. It wasn't that Sevyn wanted to leave, They had too. There was nothing that could be done. Once you've paid off your debts, your soul is set free for a second chance in paradise. Unfortunately for Aries, she was bound to the city of fallen angels. There was no paying off her debts. Not even the greatest amount of gold could get her spot back. "Unfortunately Aries, I did pay them off. So I have to leave, but not next week. I leave tomorrow.. I'm sorry I waited so long to tell you. I thought it'd be better that you didn't know and that I had just disappeared." Seyvn said softly feeling more guilty than he ever has. "I just didn't want to hurt you Aries.. I don't wanna leave you, especially because I won't remember you after I leave here." Sevyn mumbled as he turned to face his first real friend. He placed his hand on her cheek gently as he frowned. "Aries?"
"Actually Sev.. It's fine. Don't worry about it, i'm glad you paid off your debt. You get to go home again, and be with your family. Congratulations Sevyn. You made it." Aries whispered softly as she smiled at him, nuzzling her face into his hand. Warm tears trickled slowly as she pulled him into a tight embrace. She kissed his cheek softly before pulling away and standing to her feet.

"We'll meet again someday Sev.. I love you, don't forget that."
