Suddenly we appear back in my room. Ceraphine taps my shoulder. "What's going on? What did he say?" She asks as I smirk. "Really, he just wants to learn about this universe and me." I reply as he touches the walls to my room. He suddenly whips his head toward my front door. As I start to speak up, I hear a knock. "A friend I'm guessing." He says calmly. I quickly run to the door and open it a little. I see Sakara and Aziria at the door with worried expressions. "Did you feel that energy? You know that massive one that forced everyone to the ground?" Aziria asks as I smile. "Yea, I felt it." I reply as she sighs. Sakara quickly walks in. "Who are you?" I hear her ask behind me. I close my eyes trying to think of an easy way to explain. "My name is Ceraphine, nice to meet you." I hear Ceraphine say from my room. I quickly walk back there and notice Azoria is missing. Where did he go? I think as Sakara inspects Ceraphine. "Hmm, alright. Just don't try anything with Kai." Sakara says as she walks back to me and grabs my arm. "Understand?" Sakara asks as I look at her. "Uh, Sakara, why are you hugging my arm?" I ask as she lets go. "No reason." She says as she walks out. Aziria laughs. "Well, we came to make sure you were ok." Aziria says as she grins and waves as she walks away. "They didn't even shut the door." I mumble as I walk over and shut it. As I walk back to my room, I see Azoria sitting on my bed. "Wait, where did you come from?" I ask as he smiles and stands up. "Kai, do you see Ceraphine's shadow?" he asks as I look and nod. "Yea, so what?" I reply as he stands next to her. Suddenly I see him sink into her shadow then vanish. "Whoa!" I yell as I feel a tap on my shoulder. I look back and see him. "I can enter shadows and use them to move easier." He says as I smile. "That sounds like a cool power." I say as he nods."Yea, it's also good for sneaking." He says as I smile. "I'd imagine so." I reply as he walks towards my kitchen. I follow as him as he looks around. "Why do you not have a castle? With your energy the humans should be worshipping you." He says as I laugh. "No, humans are terrified of demons and angels." I reply as he sighs. "Fearing things they do not understand. I guess that's typical of lower beings." He says as he closes his eyes. He soon reopens his eyes and looks at me. "Alright, let's walk around to see this world." He says as I smile lightly. "Well lets teach you about earth!" I yell as we both run out the door. The bright sunlight directly above us tells me it's around 12 pm. I show him around the city. As I look at him I widen my eyes. I see several people staring at his horns. Shit, I didn't think about that. I think as he laughs and looks at everyone. "I don't think it's polite to stare." He says as he touches his horns. I see people getting ready to run. Suddenly he pulls his horns off like some sort of accessory. I see everyone give a sigh of relief and go back to themselves. He walks up to me. "You're right, I could sense their fear." He whispers as I stare at him. "How did you take your horns off?" I ask as he smiles. "Well, honestly I just broke the bones. I actually can't hide my horns. Oh, but next time I use my energy for anything, they'll grow back." He says as I smirk. "It didn't hurt to rip your horns off?" I ask as he shakes his head no. I chuckle and continue to show him around. While we're walking a few girls stop us. They giggle and talk directly to Azoria. I blank out while they talk. "He seems to fit in alright. But why does he feel so weak?" I whisper to myself as a pat on my back snaps me out of my thoughts. I shake my head and see Azoria smiling. "So they asked me what I was doing and I told them 'wandering around with my friend.' Then they asked odd questions about what we were doing later." He says as I look at him. "And what did you say to that?" I ask as he smiles slightly. "I told them we were going to be meeting friends later." He replies as I nod. "That actually does sound like a decent idea." I say as he smiles. He grabs my arm and runs down a back alley. "Hey! What are you doing?!" I yell as he quickly jumps behind a corner. He summons a pure black sword and hides at a corner. Suddenly he jumps out and puts his blade to a girl's throat. I notice its Sakara. "Why are you following us with hostile intent towards me?" He asks calmly as she grits her teeth. "I was worried you were going to do something to hurt Kai." She says as his sword vanishes. "Ah, now I understand. So you love him?" He asks with his head tilted. Her face becomes bright red as she throws a punch towards him. He easily dodges then sweeps her feet. I quickly jump over and grab her wrist and stop her fall. "Damn Azoria, we need to teach you more emotions. Like respecting someone else a little more." I say as I help Sakara up. I see him looking down with his hair covering eyes. I put my hand on his shoulder and he looks up with a scared look. He shakes his head and backs up. "Sorry, I just remembered something. Please forget about it." He says witha fake smile.
