The red Ooze coming from my locker the day before had scared me pretty badly. I tried my best to stay away from Colin and Myles the rest of the week making sure they got the message by my eating in the library. As I made my way home after school I heard soft tapping behind me the precise speed of my own walking. But when I looked back I saw no one the only thing that really scared me was the soft maniacal laughter that rang out whenever I shuddered. I picked up the pace and jogged lightly hearing the sharp unmistakable shing of metal on metal. The footsteps sounded closer than they originally had, the sharp sigh scared me out of my inner fear as I looked up to see a girl with iridescent baby pink wings folded behind her back.

" You've gotten us in somewhat of a bind Y/N, the thing is you've somehow gotten the attention of a girl we've been trying to capture for a while so id like to offer a proposition. If you will let us use you as some kind of bait then we will let them show you what they are." She murmured softly

" What do you mean? They? who?" I stuttered out through heavy breaths

" It will be resolved in time. but for now you might wanna take my offer before she finds you and she has her machete so I'd take my offer if I were you."

" Fine I take your offer now help me please!" I begged loudly

She snickered and took my hand spreading her wings and taking off. I couldn't help staring at those glowing wings of hers, they looked so soft. My mind took to making fantasies about flying with wings of my own. Her eyes glowed violet and some flecks of gold showed when she looked up at the moon. There were a quartet of scars marring the side of her throat, the raises skin somehow looking bright red as if they were still fresh, I didn't even know her and I was worried about as if she was hurt. Soon we landed, the roof top of a flower shop that had been condemned long ago when I was little do to a fire. The fluorescent purple was now a burnt violet, and full of holes but still held our weight. Along with three new figures that had touched down in front of us a fond smile flashed across her face before she noticed my eyes on her and drew her face back into the worn scowl of before.

" I see you found her lilyth, how long did it take you?" One deep voice asked, voice dripping in disapproval that could be heard from miles away

" Not long just three hours...But I had to locate her home and find her school. Rebel is still looking for her along the east side. We might want to bring him back here." She murmured meekly back

" Go find him we'll look after the girl until you return," He stepped forward his jewel blue eyes flashing in the light " That means now you little fallen trash."

" Archangels..." She muttered under her breath

I watched as his hand shot out and landed a solid blow to her cheek, knocking her to the ground. Her eyes flashed anger and pain.I cowered away from him my tremors shaking my body in controllably , however when he turned to me his sneer had turned into a gentle smile full of hesitation.
"Better leave her be for now Ayami she might not trust you after that little display you just put on for her. After all what could she do when you knocked lilyth to the ground so I'd tread lightly." His companion murmured softly
I watched as he drew back and drew his eyes to the worn cement of the roof. His companion stepped into the light, I shot back in shock... Myles.
