Dark Angel
Frau and Teito were walking through the city gathering supplies. When they stopped at the next merchant to buy food for dinner, they noticed a young girl with long red hair passed out next to a nearby tree. "Stay here Teito." Frau told the young boy before walking cautiously towards the mysterious girl. He rolled her over revealing her face. She was unearthly pale, as if she was made out of wax the color of the snow. He checked her pulse and sighed with relief when he felt a, weak yet steady beat. She looked to be around Teito's age.
He picked her up and walked back to the young brunette. "Get the food. We are heading back to the church." He told the young boy. "Labrador will want to check her for any wounds." he added a moment later. The boy simply looked at him with piercing green eyes before picking up the bags and following the older male back to the church. They soon arrived at an large building before walking through the doors and up the stairs to the infirmary room.
A violet haired man with gentle eyes looked up as they entered. It seemed like he had been waiting for them, almost as if he knew they would be coming. "Set the girl down on the bed here Frau." he said in a soft yet firm voice. The blond, named Frau, did as he was told and set the girl down gently. The purple haired man then walked over and began treating the girl while the brown haired boy and the older blond watched attentively. "It seems like she hasn't eaten in a long time. Plus there are some weird markings on her back." told the two onlookers.
"Is it like my brand?" the brunette asked curiously. Something about the young girl seemed familiar. It was starting to creep him out slightly.
"Yes and no." Labrador told him, the smile he usually wore no where in sight. "I have never seen these sort of markings before." he said while lifting up her shirt to show them. There was a swirling pattern with picture of wings on her back that encompassed her upper back and shoulder blades. It wasn't the same color as her waxen skin. Instead it was blackish red. When he flipped her back over they noticed the necklace hanging from her slender neck.
"What's that Labrador?" Frau asked eyeing it like it was poison. Labrador lifted it off her neck gently and began looking at it with soft yet knowing eyes.
"It's a necklace Frau. And by the looks of it, not an ordinary one either." he said while twirling it around in his hands. Suddenly it began to glow slightly and he gasped dropping to hold his slightly burnt hand. The other two ran over to him to see if he was ok.
"Labrador are you ok?" they both asked at the same time. He smiled at them before turning back the girl who, was now wide awake and staring at them with eyes that held fear.
"Who are you and where am i?" she asked in a scratchy voice wincing slightly before seeing the necklace on the floor. She then grabbed it and held it to her chest, like she thought they would take it from her.
"I'm Labrador, the blond with the scary face over there is Frau, the brown haired boy next to him is Teito." he told her gently while slowly making his way towards her. "You are the church in the 7th district. Frau and I along with a few others are Bishops." he said while banding her arm, with a bleeding wound that no one else saw. "What is your name ?" he asked her smiling gently.
"My name is Yuki. Thank you for bandaging my wound but, I need to go." she said in a quick burst of air before jumping off the bed and heading towards the door. Frau slid in front of her, successfully blocking her escape route.
"Where do you think you're going missy?" Frau asked her grinning slyly. She tired to move around him but he continued to block her path. He then picked her up and walked back towards the bed. "You should rest while the Sisters fix you something to eat." He told the young girl only to see her slump to the bed looking disheartened. Moments later three Sisters brought in a salad made of flowers with some sort of eyeball soup, to which she ate greedily.
"You don't understand, I can't stay here. Everyone I come across dies." she said in a soft voice filled with despair. The three boy looked at each other, silently having a conversation with their eyes. Sighing, Teito walked over to her and sat down on her otherside.
"I know how you feel, I used to feel the same way till I meet Labrador and Frau." he told her. She looked up at him revealing her tear stained face that made her sapphire colored eyes stand out. "And if you are not used to Frau, he's a pervert." he told her close to her ear so said blond wouldn't hear. She looked from him to said blond and back with wide eyes.
In a blur, a hand hit the top of Teito's head soon followed by an angry Frau. "What did you say chibi?!" he demanded looking down at the boy who simply glared back at him. All three of them plus the Sisters turned their attention back to the girl at the soft sound of laughter that erupted from her lips. "You found that funny huh?" he asked her causing her to stop laughing and close her mouth, blushing slightly at being caught.
"I'm sorry. You guys act like siblings or a family." she told them before getting off the bed and turning towards the window. "I want thank you for taking care of me but, I really do need to go now." she said while waving at them before jumping out the now open window. They raced towards the window but saw nothing, not her dead body or even a trace. Her voice drifted to them on the wind. "You guys are really nice even if you don't know me. I will only warn you this once, don't follow me or you will find yourself hurt beyond imagination. For I am not what I seem to be." her voice said in what seemed like a haunted voice. And like that, the wind and her voice were gone.
"What exactly is she?" Teito asked himself only for Labrador and Frau to hear him.
"I'm not sure but, I sense a similar aura around her to yours." Labrador stated calmly while looking out the window.
"Yes, I have a feeling that darkness follows that child closely. More so than Teito." Labrador stated while walking towards the door.
"What do you mean Labrador that darkness follows her more than me?" Teito asked curiously as well and slightly annoyed at being compared someone they considered a child.
"I think we should go search for our mysterious Yuki." Frau muttered, still slightly annoyed at being called a pervert and the girl laughing at him.
" I agree. Darkness seems to be closing in on her, just like Teito." Labrador said with a worried voice and equally worried eyes. With that the two of them walked out of the room leaving a semi stunned and curious Teito behind, and began their search for the girl named Yuki.
