The Rouge Aasimar

Chapter One

She was literally falling out of heaven. The soft warmth feeling as the Aasimar's cold purple eyes slowly closed themselves. Flames had engulfed her completely as the ground seemed to be growing closer. At this rate, the moment that she hits the ground, she was going to take out a lot of area around her. And by the looks of it, it seemed that she was heading towards a small village in the middle of no where. Her wings were badly chared and unable to open, even if she could open them, at this rate, she wasn't even going to make a dent and end up just hurting herself trying to slow down. There was no use, this was how she was going to die. At least her father wouldn't be able to torture her for answers that she didn't even know before finally killing her. She felt like crying, Justice, the daughter of a God felt like crying. It wasn't out of fear or the fact that she was inches from being dead, it was the fact that her own father didn't believe her and threw her into a cell to be put to death the next morning. Her brother was murdered by the witch that he was dating at the time. Even though they didn't need to find romance, Aasimars still found some joy in each other that others would call love. But that wasn't here nor there; she watched as the witch of a woman drove the golden blade through her brother and watch him die in front of her. Then she turned towards Justice and was wielding the blade violently at her as if to strike her down as well. What Justice didn't know was that the woman had already planned on framing the young Aasimar. The moment that Justice grabbed that blade, the woman began to panic and scream out; thrashing violently until it caught the attention of the guards. And with Justice standing there, holding a blade over the woman and her dead brother near by, it didn't look good at all. 

Oh the irony of her name, and yet she had no feeling that she was justified. Instead, her father locked her up and was to put her to death himself by the morning sun. Luckily a friend of Justice knew that she was innocent and broke her out, if she was caught, she was also going to be put to death. And so Justice took off running to the portal to the material plain where she thought she was going to be safe... little did she know that it would put her directly in the air and falling to her death... 

She finally closed her eyes and waited for death with open arms. Though... that never happened... Matter a fact something hit her across the face. It was soft, felt almost. She snapped opened her eyes to see some sort of material like a curtain had appeared beside her as if magic. She didn't know what to make it, instead she slowly grabbed the cloth material and felt it yank slightly. Before she had realized what was going on, she grabbed onto it tighter as it pulled off to the side and down at an angle. And into darkness she went. It was hard to breath in this darkness. She couldn't see much, only a few clouds hanging over her and she was floating in darkness, a void almost. She looked up just moments that a large hand reached down and grabbed her by the shoulders and yanked her out. 

And she landed on the soft grass that she was going to hit and destroy, gasping for air and pain as she held her throat. Slowly, she looked up at what or who saved her. A small sheep stood over her with a small smile on her face, and beside her was a lion fellow. Justice blinked a few times and took notice in the small pocket that was on the side of both of them. 

"What was that...?" Justice mumbled towards them.

"Our pocket demention." The sheep said while patting the small pocket, "Names Killigan, and no need to thank us for saving you." She smiled, "We did it out the kindness of our hearts." 

"Other than the fact that you were going to completely destroy the village if we didn't..." The man with the strange tuffs of hair ever where who looked more like a lion than a man, "I'm Leon." 

"Justice..." She mumbled as she slowly stood up and dusted herself off, "Now excuse me..." She began to walk away only to be cornered by the crowds of people who were watching the human falling from the sky. 

They crowded the Aasimar with questions and concerns on what they saw. And of course, having large ram like horns and hooves weren't questionable enough, they had to ask where she came from and why she was here. The personal stuff. Justice gulped back before glaring down at the crowd. 

"That is none of your business, I must be on my way now." Just before she went to walk past the crowd, she ran head first into another man. 

This man wasn't easy to move either. He was built, white hair, older gentleman. The small aasimar slowly looked up at the man, not knowing to try and intimidate him or just walk around him, but the look on the man's face said it all. She was going no where anytime soon. She gulped once again and slowly turned towards the toon like people. 

"I don't know where I landed, but I don't wanna be here and I don't want to stand around." Justice mumbled,

"You seem like you could do some tricks, want to help us with our act?" The sheep asked with a grin on her face, "You have a bow and arrow don't you?" She pointed towards Justice's hip where a crossbow rested. 

"Yes... I am a master at archery..." Justice said before shaking her head, "but that's not the point, I am not going to help you and that's final." She snapped, getting annoyed. 

"But they did save your life." The man who stood behind her grunted out in also annoyance.

Justice jumped at the sterness of his voice, but didn't turn around. Instead, Justice sighed quietly in defeat and turned towards the man who was talking to her. 

"I didn't catch your name..." Justice began as he looked up at down the older man, as if sizing him up. 

"John..." He began, "And you are the fallen angel." 

"I prefer Justice." She snarled. 

"I would watch your tone around me, I don't take kindly to people who just fallen out of the sky for no reason other than a god cast them down. And I break those I don't trust." He threatened, 

"You don't scare me." 

"I don't need to scare you. I just need you to understand that I am not one to be messed with. I used to run with the royal guard and a paladin." He spoke lowly, "Now stop trying to act big and bad because you don't look like someone who would win in a fight against a mouse let alone a paladin." 

Justice went quiet when she noticed a smaller girl hiding behind John. She had long bluish hair and pretty ocean eyes. She smiled up at Justice as if trying to dismiss the fact that she was caught by the Aasimar. 

"And who is that...?" Justice asked pointing to the young girl.

"This is Luna. She is my Niece." John said while looking down at her, 

"I see," Justice mumbled, 

"I see that we have a lot of tension in the air," Killigan began with a smile, "how about since Justice here almost killed everyone by crash landing, we all put on a show, even Luna can help us!" 

Justice blinked and shot a glare at the sheep, "I don't preform." She hissed, 

"You do now," Leon mumbled as he pulled out a violin from his pocket space, "Besides, you are pretty good with that crossbow right? We have the perfect act for you." He grinned. 

"Oh boy..." Justice mumbled quietly, not ready nor prepared for what was to happen next.
