You lean up against Mika, biting your lip as a cold sweat breaks out on your forehead.

"Are you sure you're okay?" Yuu's green eyes are wide with concern, and you give a half-hearted nod.

"No, you're not." Mika says, his worry mixing with irritation.

You clench a fistful of his shirt as pain erupts again on your shoulder blades. You squeeze your eyes shut as another awful shifting under your skin sends a wave of nausea through you.

"Nope." You admit, feeling like fainting. "N-not okay..."

Over the past two days, you eventually accepted that you were this "Angel" everyone was talking about, but growing wings? That still seems unreal. Even though if feels like something is ripping apart my-

Shinoa's eyes are as big as saucers.
"Are you really... Growing... Wings?"

Another invisible pick axe slams into the flesh between your shoulder blades, and you bite back another "nngh".

Mika squeezes you tighter and pulls the hair plastered to your forehead by sweat to the side.

The atmosphere darkens.

"Hang in there, (Name)." Mika's voice is low in your ear.

"The blood moon is soon." He mumbles, and a ripple of discomfort hits the Shinoa Squad.

In the distance, the vampires are drawing their swords.
