Skyler-

Skyler didn't think Claire would run off like that. He expected her to ignore her father's words like always. But it seems Claire finally snapped.

"Find her!" He yelled.

"She's probably long gone," Skyler didn't flinch when the leather whip cut his cheek. Skyler is used to it; he is a-enslaved person, a demon trapped in heaven. Skyler isn't sure how his surviving. He should be burning. If only Skyler could remember. If he could remember his life, he would figure out how to get out of this fucking place.

"It was your job to keep an eye on that girl!" He yelled. "Find Claire! Unless you have her, don't come back!"

"Yes, master," Skyler excused himself; this could be his chance. His chance to investigate his past, perhaps that demon, Luther, can help him. But Skyler has to be careful.

He jumped out of the temple and flew down to the portals. He went through. It's already daylight. He camouflaged and went to the only place he could think of, where Claire could've gone too.

Claire. It's the first time she's run away from home. Skyler has known Claire since she was a baby. He was Claire the day she was born. He was a four-year-old boy when those angels captured him. They gifted him to Claire. He used to keep Claire company growing up. He watched her grow up with no love. She was always sad.

That was a few centuries ago. And now. Claire seems happy. It's like she found some reason to be-cheerful. Skyler landed in the middle of the woods. He let his human form take over. It didn't change much, only remove his demonic features. He still has red hair and pearly white eyes. His eyes make people uneasy.

He sighed and stepped out into the busy street. The only thing Skyler wants is freedom; he can only get it if he learns about his past. Or he can ask Luther for help.

Sighing, he looks around. He should look for Claire at the prominent place. But he wants to take a small stroll. He needs to unwind.

He shivers. Autumn. It's a beautiful season. Halloween was yesterday. Decorations are coming down and making way for Christmas. What happened to Thanksgiving?

He walked around and stopped at a display at a toy store. There was a little town being displayed, with a train that goes around and through the little town.

It's a replica of the town. Skyler is amazed by toys like this.

Skyler was so distracted by the toy train he didn't notice the toddler hugging his leg. He looks down and almost panics. It's the baby, Sapphire. She's one of the oddities. He looks around. Where are her parents? Are they not aware of how dangerous it is for her to be out here alone?

He picked her up. "Where are your parents?" She blinked and tried to eat his cheek. She gnaw at his cheek. It felt so gross. It's nothing but gums and drool. "Gross."

"Sapphire, there you are," oh no. Luna. Is it destiny for him to meet them? "Sapphire, don't chew on a stranger's cheek. That's gross." Luna went to grab Sapphire, but the kid grabbed his hair and tugged.

"Ow."

"Sapphire let go of his hair," Luna grunts. The man behind her laughed. "Demitri, don't laugh. Help me."

All they had to do was tickle Sapphire.

There was a giant red mark on his cheek. He sighed.

"Sapphire, what is it with you?" Luna strapped her in the stroller. "Sorry about that. I don't know why Sapphire is acting like this."

He shrugged. "It's fine."

"You're new in town?" Demitri asked.

"Yes, I'm looking for a friend," he smiled. "She ran away from home."
