Katsumi laid calmly on his couch, Makoto sitting at his feet. They were watching something, but they weren't paying attention to the show, they were more interested in each other.

Suddenly, the door burst open. "Katsumi." Said looked over, and blinked. "Anastasiya?" He asked, sitting up. "Yes." The regal demon said, entering the apartment. She calmly walked to stand in the center of the room. "Looks like I am going to have to kill your human myself." She said, cracking her knuckles.

Katsumi was instantly on his feet, wings spread in a protective shield. "I can't fight her. RUN." He shouted. "I.." Makoto whispered. "Go! I'll be right behind you." Katsumi yelled back. After a moments hesitation, Makoto ran sprinting as fast as he could.

Katsumi waited until he was gone, before relaxing his wings. "I'm going to kill you too, you know. You're in my way." Anastasiya stated. Katsumi's expression hardened. "In your dreams. Not that you have those." With that, he sprinted after Makoto. Anastasiya sighed deeply. "You have got to be kidding me.." She grumbled, before taking up the chase.

OoOOooOOooOOoo

The Fallen Angel and the human ran hand in hand, through confused people. Katsumi dodged and weaved through them, Makoto's hand tight in his. "Do not let go of me." He said, glancing behind him. "I won't!" Makoto assured him. Anastasiya was of course on their tail. They had run into woods, weaving through trees, Anastasiya effortlessly bounding over logs.

The pair skidded to a stop, at a cliff side, dropping each other's hand. "What now?" Makoto asked. "I don't know, give me a moment." Katsumi muttered. Makoto nodded, and clung to Katsumi's arm. His breathing heavy. He closed his eyes.

Anastasiya sauntered up, stopping a few feet away from them. "No where to run, Eh, Fallen?" She asked, smirking. Katsumi tensed, and glared darkly. "Tsk.. Don't look at me like that.." She clicked her tongue, shaking her head. "Give me the human, and all will be well." She said, crossing her arms.

Makoto opened his eyes. "Do it, Katsu.. I have an idea.." He whispered, letting go of Katsumi and stepping forward. Katsumi quickly placed a hand on his shoulder. "Never." He growled at Anastasiya. Anastasiya sighed. "I was afraid of that." She snapped her fingers. "Lucas, Grab him." She huffed.

Suddenly, Lucas, appeared behind Katsumi. "Sorry, Boss." He said, grabbing one of the poor angel's wings, and yanking it down to snap it over his knee, then pinning it behind his back, along with his free hand. Katsumi's grip on Makoto instantly faltered, and his hand dropped. His world spun and black dots filled his vision. He was lucky he didn't lose his lunch. Lucas leaned next to his ear. "C'mon boss, I know it hurts like hell, come back to us." He muttered, but Katsumi was to focused on not fainting that he didn't acknowledge him.

Makoto's hand shot to his mouth at the sickening crack, and his stomach did a flip when he realized neither Lucas nor Anastasiya even blinked. "You're horrible." He said. "I'm a demon." Anastasiya said, rolling her eyes. "Now, Come here, and he doesn't get hurt, well anymore." Makoto's eyes narrowed, small slivers of green visible. "Never." He growled

Anastasiya sighed deeply. "Fine, Lucas, Snap the other wing." Katsumi, whom had just come back to reality, struggled feebly. "Don't you dare- Luke!" He shouted, as his wing was yanked. "STOP." Makoto shouted, taking a step forward. "Let him go, and I'll cooperate." He said.

Anastasiya paused. "Alright, Lucas, Drop him." She said. Katsumi hit the ground with a hard thud, his vision swimming again. "Mako, Don't.." He mumbled, glancing up at Makoto as he stepped forward. Anastasiya smirked, extending her hand. Makoto stopped a few inches short of her hand. He looked her dead in the eyes. Green locked on dark burgundy. "I'll make a deal with a demon over my dead body." He said, and spun on his heal, sprinting to the edge of the cliff.

"GRAB KATSUMI." Anastasiya shouted, bolting after Makoto. Lucas grabbed, Katsumi by his wings, but the fallen angel was to horrified to notice.

His heel hit the edge of the cliff, and, he jumped, pushing off of it. Anastasiya stopped short, glaring down.

"MAKO!" Was the last thing Katsumi heard himself say, before he collapsed.
