Silver wings, a curse or just unfortunate? For a certain angel it was both for, despite her obvious and high level aerial combat skills, she had been ranked down to nothing but a glorified scout taking solo missions...usually flying in the dark...unwanted. The name of this being was (y/n), referred to as 'Silver Wings' for obvious reasons which tended to make her feel worse seeing as most called it out in a mocking fashion. But apparently, Angels never bullied.

Despite the rest of the 'flock' hating her to the underworld and back, there was always Asuka the Spectacular Spector who 50% of the time lived up to her name by sneakily taking down enemies whilst the other 50% was spent figuring out why she was banished to live in the human realm for no apparent reason over being weak-winged.

The two got along nicely enough though despite their odd argument over something stupid.

It was one of those days when the pair would meet on a rock outside the main island called Atlantis where Gods would hold Glorious parties over birthdays, anniversaries and even over winning a war with Dragons knows what or who! Honestly, both outcasts saw the entire thing as a waste of time (they did not just think that because they were never invited.)

"How's your week been then (y/n)?" asked Asuka as she hung lazily off a branch of the blossom tree that glow all on its lonesome on their island "same as usual 'Scout there', 'Scout here' and 'we want you to scout over by that enemies fortress where you can be killed in an instant'" (y/n) answered dryly. Folding her arms, Asuka frowned (which looked like a smile from her current position) before asking "why don't you just, well, leave?" in which the (h/c) angel answered by putting up her pale wrist to reveal a brown leather bracelet with golden rings "can't leave the barrier without permission."

The pair sighed in unison "life sure does stink" Asuka said as she pulled herself up onto the branch and sitting upright "at least I don't have to-" a loud explosion prevented her from finishing her sentence and instead both beings looked back towards the palace...it was a Hade's Raid!

"Dragon scales!" (y/n) cried, scrambling to her feet and immediately taking off skyward as Asuka flew at her usual slow pace behind her. True; they did despise everyone living in that city with a passion, but both held responsibility to fight off Hades minions whether they liked it or not. Looking back at Asuka who was way behind her and struggling to keep up with her strongest wing flaps.

Eventually at a point where they were soaring over the city where purple smoke formed dense clouds and a haze making it impossible to see much other than a large metallic ship sitting on the Plateau. Asuka, grateful that they were now slowing down to a point where there was less strain on her wings, squinted at the scene before asking "how in dragon's name did this happen? Heck, where in dragon's name are these enemies come from? through the flipping front door?"

(y/n) stopped flying so that she was hovering just above the marble roof of the armory "no idea, but I think I know what they want." Pointing at the crystal statue which was also used for magic storage, they both notice how many imps were guarding it...and how many human soldiers were scattered around it. Dead. Rotting.

"Great! So, what are we exactly supdosed to do?" Asuka asked bitterly...only to realize that her friend had already flown off directly towards the statue! Cursing, Asuka ran a hand through her white locks and complained "why do you have to be so dam heroic (y/n)!" before pursuing her friend.
