The Angel and The Human (Boy x Boy) [ON HOLD]

Chapter One : Home in the Trees

The picture is of Kaze and Sukai's home. A Sakura Tree, it's special though ~ read to find out why. Just a side note: I'm not good with character descriptions Sorry about that!

The song I listened to while writing the beginning of this was ~                          https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FydazpH-XR4

~~~ just so u don't get confused, they have the same vocabulary has normal humans. as long as they know what the stuff is. EX: leaves, wood, tree, clothes, phrases. stuff like that, but they don't know what modern day things are like coolers, tents, phones, etc.

The only audible sounds were the roaring of the wind, the constant beating of wings, and an occasional ramble from my sister. I couldn't exactly hear what she was saying, but I didn't exactly care. All I could feel was freedom as I soared through trees. I was zig-zagging between branches, passing trunks in a blur, and not a problem was on my mind.

I finally broke through the facade of green to my favorite place in my forest home. The Lake. It's crystal blue waters sparkling and inviting. I glided lower to the ground, as low as I dared, and reached my hand down into the icy surface. With my hand halfway submerged I slowed my pace a small bit, so that I could feel the relaxing liquid for that much longer. I closed my eyes to enjoy the moment.

The moment was soon interrupted as I heard the rapid movement of wings behind me. I snapped my eyes open as the race flashed clearly into my consciousness. I picked my pace up again and yanked my hand from the water. Realizing that Sukai was right behind me, brown hair wildly being tossed by the wind, I raised my altitude.

We shot away from the lake, and I soon started getting distance between us again. I was always able to get away from Sukai when flying; I had bigger wings than her. My wings were much larger than they should be, and I was always aware of that, but I didn't care much. I loved the feeling of the wind going in-between the feathers. The air flowing through my hair was so amazing I just had to close my eyes for another moment. I was brought back to reality by Sukai's triumphant shout.

"Yes!" I look behind me only to see empty air. I jerked my head forward again to see Sukai ahead of me. I grinned.

"Oh no, you don't" I replied, determined to gain the lead again. I had my head completely focused on flying faster. Inch by inch I gained on her again. Finally, we were neck and neck, wing tips almost brushing. I could see home straight ahead; it was now or never. In one final push of strength, I tumble through the thick, pink flowering branches of our home tree. Once through all the thick branches, I made it into the middle of the tree where only a few branches grew for some strange reason. This tree had always been important to Sukai and me. We have lived here all our lives. We live alone now too; we had recently become orphans. Our parents had died only two years ago, we still missed them, but we were ok. We have each other.

I sat up just in time to see Sukai tumbling in after me. I stood shaking petals from my wings and hair. "Ha!" I said in triumph with a giant grin plastered on my face.

"I win again." Sukai got up grumbling something about losing every day.

"Why do you always win?!" she complained, dragging out the 'always' to emphasize.

"Why?" I replied sarcastically "Cause I'm the best!"

"Are not!" she threw back.

"Am too" I continued with finality and stubbornly stuck out my tongue. Sukai countered that by smacking me in the back of the head lightly.

"Ow," I murmured, pouting as I rubbed the spot that she hit.

"Do you still have lunch or did you drop it again?" she asked.

"It's right here" I replied while taking the tan satchel I had only just remembered I had. I opened it and handed her one of the apples we had picked before rushing off back home. We don't eat much, then again there's not much to eat. We just eat fruits and some of the edible leaves found. We don't eat meat, harming animals isn't right to us. I loved apples though; I could live on just those. It's always Greens for breakfast, apples for lunch, and various berries for dinner. Sometimes we get lucky and find a few peaches; those are super rare, so that's desert. I don't really mind my diet. I love the food, but what I really want to is to try some human food. There are no humans on this island, so I don't think I'd get to see any or try the food. I really want to though; I want to meet humans. Our parents always told us horrible things about humans, though I can't help but wonder if it's true or just plain made up.

Either way, I was content with what I had.

After lunch, Sukai and I went to the lake to collect water and go for a swim. Usually, we don't swim; water makes our wings too heavy to fly. Summer is great and all, but it's always really hot out, and today was just one of those days. Sukai stopped at the edge of the lake and started filling our canteens she made awhile back out of wood. I didn't stop I just plunged right in. As I landed, I tucked my wings to my body as tight as I could to have the smoothest possible impact. Straight into the water I went. The feeling of the water hitting my face was amazing. I stayed under as long as I could, but I need air. I came back up to the surface to see I had splashed Sukai with the icy liquid.

She stared at me with angry brown eyes and a scowling. Her hair was dripping with clear droplets. "Really?" she stated angrily.

"hahaha, you were going to get in anyways" I retorted and laughed. She just scowled more and finished getting our drinks while I continued swimming around. By the time she was done, Sukai was already dry again, so she decided to stay out of the lake. After a while, I decided to get out and dried off as well.

Once dry we decided to head home since we still had time till we start looking for dinner. On our way back though, I heard something that sounded like voices and stopped in my tracks. Sukai noticed and also stopped, looking back at me.

"What?" she asked.

"Did you hear that?"

"Hear what?" The voices sounded again, closer this time accompanied by the sound of chopping.

"That" I stated. We both turned towards the sound and slowly moved forward as quiet as we could. When the sound was just below us, we landed on a nearby tree to see what was there.

When I looked down, I couldn't believe my eyes.

Humans.
