I flared my wings as I stood up, causing my already large figure and shadow to become even larger and then I sighed. I titled my head to the sky, though of course, I couldn't see anything. I began to wonder to myself what it looked like. I couldn't remember the night sky. Was it beautiful? I sighed again as I remained like this for some time, the cool breeze felt nice through my hair, no doubt my hair had become incredibly long by now. I couldn't remember the last time I had it cut. Oh well. I relaxed again as I turned my head straight ahead of me, gazing at the, what I saw it to be, blue grass. I didn't know it's true color, I guessed it was green, but I had heard rumours that it turned silver at night because of the moon. But in all honestly, I wouldn't know. My body suddenly tensed, two beings had just entered my field of magic, but who were they? And what did they want? I decided to pretend not to notice them and just kept my head pointed forward while slowly pushing my magic out further just in case there were more. I was relieved when I found that there weren't, but I didn't dare try and push my magic into this two beings just in case, so I had no idea as to what they were, or had a vague idea as to what they looked like.

Siasha walked a half step or two behind Aeron, a little more weary of where they were going. It wasn't that she was looking for protection, but she was obviously a little more hesitant than Aeron was. As they got closer, she was able to clearly make out the shadow of a person -- and wings. It was a startling discovery, but she was trying to stay reasonable. It was most surely not another Hell Angel (she could not bring herself to believe something extraordinary), but was obviously an Angel of some sort. Wings like that could not be found from any other race, she was sure. Siasha could tell from here that he had sensed their presence, as he was quite tense. What confused her, however, was that he wasn't exactly looking in their immediate direction. She found this odd, but didn't say a word. It was one of those moments when Siasha found herself with little she wanted to say -- a moment that came quite often. Siasha was by nature a quiet soul, and had the uncanny ability to be able to fit a lot of things into a few words. Many people have thought that her quiet personality was the outcome of her life of solitude, but this just wasn't true -- Siasha had always been an introvert, even before her time in the heavens.

Aeron noticed the wings and wondered what the person was. It couldn't be another Hell Angel. He wsan't lucky enough for it to be. But it was clearly an Angel of some sort with wings like those. The wind got stronger fo a moment, grass dancing wildly before settling down. It couldn't be a normal Angel that served the Heavens. Then they would be up in the sky or Heavens, not down here in this world. So what could the strange person be? As the male (Aeron could see him more clearly now) tensed, the Hell Angel guessed that he knew they were there. But he wasn't looking at them, which was strange. As he and Siasha neared the person, Aeron continued to wonder what the person was. But, like with Siasha, he just couldn't yell out the question. That was much too rude. So instead, Aeron called out a greeting. "Hello there! I was wondering if you wanted some company!" he called out, a smile on his face. Being with Siasha had put him into such a good mood. He stopped about five feet from the campfire and the male, wondering if he was friendly or not. Perhaps he should have worried about that sooner?

I could hear their footsteps coming closer, one was softer than the other. So I guessed that the heavier and louder of the footsteps was a large person, possibly a male, and the other was a small female, or possibly a younger child. Though, I couldn't be too sure. Until the one called out anyway, his voice was definitely that of a male, and although he had asked me if I would like company, I still did not allow myself to push my magic into their bodies to see their basic shapes. I didn't answer them, I didn't really feel the need to, first, I would test them. I slowly turned my head in their direction, allowing them to see the bandages that were wrapped around my eyes as the light of the fire danced upon them. I then slowly turned my entire body to theirs, and spread my wings slightly, before neatly folding them behind my back. It felt good to spread my wings every once in a while. After all, I dare not fly, as I would not be able to see a thing that was going on around me, so spreading my wings like this was the only way that I was able to relieve the often aches of my wings. I let my arms drop to my sides as I waited for the strangers reactions, only then would I push my magic into theirs. If they attacked, I knew that I was fast enough to get away, or I could force my magic into their body, so long as their will was not too strong, and fight back.

Siasha slowly began to ponder the few things that could explain his presence here on the earth. Was he a hybrid of sort? Or....fallen? Neither one was more likely than the other, and she supposed that she would have to just wait and see. Siasha glanced at Aeron and shifted uneasily as he called out to the unknown person. She knew very well that between the two of them they could defend themselves, but she wasn't exactly looking for a fight that evening. As the figure turned, her eyes went to meet his. The only problem was that they were covered in bandages. Siasha wasn't disturbed by this exactly, as she had seen things much worse in her long life time. However, what did put her slightly on edge was how such an injury had occured. It was a stereotype, no doubt, but people with such injuries were commonly known to be aggressive creatures. Siasha did have enough sense and mind, though, to not judge him so early. But he was still yet to respond, so she decided to coax him into doing so. Siasha didn't want to hang around longer than she was wanted, but she was in a very friendly mood. "Hello?" she said questioningly, tilting her head and putting on a small smile.

Maybe this male wasn't an Angel but a shapeshifter or half demon? His eyes were covered and obviously damaged. Aeron wondered why the person had sensed them approaching him then. Stepping in the silver grasses made almost no noise and they hadn't been talking. Perhaps this person used...magic? It wouldn't be the weirdest thing that Aeron had heard of but it was rare to see someone that used magic to see. It had always interested the Hell Angel how some creatures could make up for losing a sense by using something else. He already knew that if he lost something like his sight that Aeron would be doomed. Besides his powers given to him and his wings, the Hell Angel had no other powers. And that included magic. Aeron was slightly uncomfortable around a large amount of magic. But, for some reason, he didn't feel uncomfortable able his theory of this creature having magic. The Hell Angel spread his large wings slightly in another kind of greeting. After a few moments Aeron folded his wings against his black-clothed back again, wondering how the person would respond. He seemed friendly. Or at least enough so that he just didn't randomly attack the pair of Hell Angels when they approached. Aeron looked the person in the eyes, or at least where they were under the bandages, to be polite. He hated it when people were always looking somewhere else while talking. It always distracted him as he tried to figure out what the other person would be looking at during the conversation. It was usually just a tree or something not of interest. Aeron waited patiently where he stood, not wanting to just walk up to the person randomly (though he kind of had done that, just not as closely).

So, they weren't enemies afterall, I slowly began to push my magic into their bodies, which wouldn't harm them in anyway, but they would feel it sort of. I turned my head to the female voice, smiling because I was right after all. The smaller one was female. “Hello, sorry if I may seem a little rude.” I said as I bowed slightly to them both, not wanting to upset them. I smiled again as I straightened back up and walked towards the fire. ”You asked if I would like company?” I didn't put too much of my magic in them at first, just enough so that I would be able to see the shape of the fronts of their bodies for now, I would wait to make them appear to be 3-D to me when I felt like I could trust them some more. Though, I still had no idea as to what race they were, at the moment, they just looked like regular humans.

Siasha's smile turned a little more genuine when he returned the expression, relieved to see that they had not met an enemy here. Without notice she gradually began to feel the smallest pressure on her skin, so slight that the fact she noticed it did not reflect itself on her face. She thought little of it, and was yet to think this stranger the cause. She walked forward as he walked away, stepping into the firelight. "Yes, we are looking for a place to rest, and most places in the city aren't open at this time of night." She replied, putting both her hands out to feel the heat. It was already moderately warm, but little compared to the feel of a flame. It was an interesting thing, fire. So easily it could take life, and yet give it to. Her face was serene and calm as she watched it, but she soon tore herself away to smile once again. Siasha knew that he could not see her, but she would not treat him any differently than she would any other person. Fluttering her wings, she waited for him to reply. Would he let them stay? Or reject their company?

Aeron felt a pressure against himself and decided that, yes, the stranger did use magic to see. Yet, unlike mages, this magic didn't make him feel uncomfortable. It was kind of like being underwater, without being wet or not being able to breathe. Okay, so it wasn't anything like being underwater. The only similar thing was the feeling you get when totally submerged. Aeron walked forward as well, careful not to get too close to the fire. Though he liked fire more then the next person, his wings didn't need to get hurt. ANother reason Aeron didn't like mages. Many a time had mages either tricked him into something or tried getting one of his feathers. What did they do with the feathers anyway? The Hell Angel nodded when Siasha spoke, a breeze making the fire flame up for a moment. Surely the stranger wouldn't turn them away at such a late hour? And if he was suspicious, couldn't he check for threats with his magic? Aeron wasn't really sure but it sounded like something you could do. And if you couldn't, well, then he would have to trust the Hell Angels or kick them out. Hopefully, it would be the first one.

”Ah, that's quite unfortunate, well, you may rest here, if you so wish. I won't mind. To be honest, I've been pretty lonely all these years. I haven't had any real company for at least a few hundred years.” I smiled softly as I sat on the right side of the fire. I don't really know why, but I preferred being on the right of things. It felt odd and unnatural to be on any other side. I guess that it's just one of the odd habits that I'd picked up on my journeys. Oh well, it wouldn't matter regardless, I would just be a right person for a while. I turned my head to my visitors as I slowly pushed enough magic into their bodies so that I would be able to see their full figures. Only, I was amazed when I did. They were, angels. At least, I think they were. My mouth fell open slightly in shock as I kept my head facing them. I had never met another angel on Xisin in my life. And now, tonight, I had met two. At least, I thought they were angels. It would seem rude, but I would have to ask them to confirm it. ”Um.. I'm sorry if this seems somewhat rude, but, you'll have to forgive me because I simply have to know. Are you two, by any chance, and I may be completely and totally wrong with my assumption, but are you two angels?” Though, I did find it slightly odd that if they were angels, that they didn't recognize me. I was somewhat famous in the heavens after all. For my, “betrayal”. Though, I put that as to them being younger than me, or because of the bandages that are wrapped around my dead eyes.

"Thank you, we really do appreciate it." she replied, nodding her head. Walking forward she sat on the opposite side of the hot flames and waited for Aeron to join her. Her thin wings were now pinned to her back as a distinct memory wandered into her mind of accidently catching one on fire. It was before her feathers had fallen, and she had managed to only singe the tips. If she had told anyone else this tale, they would probably laugh at her. But this wasn't a funny memory. It didn't make her afraid of fire, but just cautious of it. Lost in her thoughts, she had almost missed what the stranger had said. Looking up, she couldn't help but smile knowingly, "We are something of the sort, you could say." she began, "But no, we are not." she added, biting back another small yawn. She smiled sympathetically, knowing how surprised he probably was. Angels were not a common sight on the Earth, so he must have been shocked. Folding her hands in her lap, she rubbed her fingers awkwardly. What a night it had been?

Aeron carefully sat next to Siasha, watching the fire for a moment to see how large it could get. It didn't grow, instead seeming happy to just sit there for a while. He felt the pressure on him increase and squirmed for a moment, not used to the feeling. Though it wasn't uncomfortable, it was...different. Aeron wasn't used to things, including magic, touching him. But beyond squirming for a split second, the Hell Angel didn't do anything else. As the stranger spoke, his wings relaxed and pushed themselves away from his back, straight out behind him. It was comfortable to leave them like this when sitting down. After Siasha spoke, Aeron tilted his head slightly at the person. Was he an Angel? "Are you an angel?" he asked, looking at the person with curiousity. But why would an Angel be away from the Heavens and down here in Xisin? And, according to what the male had said, he had to have been down here for more then a few centuries. As long as Aeron had? The Hell Angel had been in this world for so long he barely remembered before, when he was in the Heavens. Could this stranger be another Hell Angel? Aeron kicked the thought from his head, not wanting to get his hopes up. Two of his kind in one night? Surely not.

So, they weren't angels, but they also were, I didn't know what they meant by that, but it didn't really matter. I was just happy about the fact that I had finally found some people a bit like myself. It was good to know that there were some that were of a race similar to mine on this earth. I turned my head to the male angel-like being as he asked me a question. I then pointed my head down, as if looking down at the ground after he finished. ”I was, once. I was a Seraphim, and a guard of Lucifer. That is, until I was banished from the heavens for being falsely accused of betrayal. They stripped me of my sight, and cast me away here many a decade ago. I no longer like to call myself an angel. As angels are meant to be pure beings, that hold no malice. Yet, they are so cruel.” It was true, there had been others that had suffered even worth fates than I. Though, I had never met them here on the mortals world. I guessed that they had long since died. The punishments that they had become victims of, were after all, gruesome. It pained me that the race that the Human mortals looked up at so desperately, were so cruel to one another. They were nothing like they were made out to be, and it upset me.
”I am Vincent, 'The Traitor', or so have I been nicknamed in the heavens.”

Siasha listened to Vincent's story, but with only mild interest. It was an interesting story, no doubt, but Siasha hardly had the attention span at the moment. Though, what she had heard was enough to raise some questions. One, of which, included the age of the once-angel. He must have been younger than she was. "Angels are only people that just so happened to fall on the right side of neutrality. Society has made them out to be perfect, but they have never claimed to be." she said absent mindedly. No one was without sin, and the majority of people thought little of their immortal lives while they still had the chance. It seemed that it was by pure luck that a lot of people got into heaven. She sighed and moved so that she was sitting on the ground with her back against her previous seat -- there being just enough room that she didn't have to fear being caught aflame. She was obviously tired, but she knew she would have troubles sleeping that night. She was not accustomed to being around other people while she slept, and she knew she would be very vulnerable to these people. It wasn't like she had a choice though, simply because she wasn't going any where at this point.

Eron wondered how humans saw angels. From what he had heard, they looked up to them as pure beings. But that always made him laugh a little, causing the humans speaking to give him either glares or confused looks. Angels were different then what the humans thought by a lot. The Hell Angel had been one a long time ago and didn't act like people thought. No one was really pure, a thing that bothered Aeron to no end. Why did the worlds seem to hold no one truly pure, yet there were people all around that were the oppisite of it.
"Humans believe them to be above all, as pure as snow. Yet they didn't do anything to earn that judgement. People here just believe that because they are now in the Heavens." Aeron threw into the conversation, yawning slightly. The heat of the fire got to him and made him even more tired. Shrugging off his black jacket, he placed it off to his side. The Hell Angel leaned back to look up, supporting himself with his arms behind him. He could barely remember what it was like an Angel.
