Of course, this is the translation of "The Promise of an Angel" from Kare Kano, but it seemed to fit here. I liked it. It fit. Enjoy.

Oh! I never do disclaimers, and I should (hits herself on the hand) Bad Darkdragon! Bad!

The song, Kare Kano, and Juvenile Orion ALL belong to someone else. If I owned all of them, I would have bought the country of Japan by now...


The Promise of an Angel

When I see your profile in passing,
My heart begins to flutter and dance.
Listening to your voice as you talked,
I realized there was another "you".
I wish I had just a little bit of courage
To gaze into your eyes.

"Tsukasa…"

"Yes, Tomonori-san? Is there anything I can do for you?"

The brunette shook his head. Tsukasa had been gazing out of a window, looking at the sky. He had been doing that a lot lately.

"What is it…you long for, Tsukasa?"

The blond smiled. "Nothing, Tomonori-san. Your care is all I can ask for. That, and serving my master."

Tomonori nodded, but said, "There must be…something else. Something that you want, Tsukasa."

The blond, Tsukasa, paused for a moment to consider the question, and with a sigh, unleashed his beautiful, draping wings. He turned to look at Tomonori, and he had the most serene expression graced his features as he said, "I wonder what its like…where I came from, Tomonori-san. What's its like now, that I am no longer there. I can remember some vague details, but…I want to fix…whatever it was that made me this way. I want to fix whatever system drove me to tear away my very own wings. I want to fix…whatever commanded me to stain them in the first place." Tsukasa paused. "But I doubt that they would change for me…" His smiled remained, a sad smile that conveyed his pity for those who were not breaked by Mana Kirihara, to those who did not see the truth of pointless violence.

But Tomonori was seriously worried. What if Tsukasa left? Certainly, if the child believe in something, he would take action?

"Tsukasa…you would not leave me here, would you?" Then, to cover his sentiments, "You wouldn't leave Master either?"

Tsukasa smiled brighter, standing, and Tomonori was once again awed by the Eraser's wings.

"I-I would never leave you, Tomonori-san." He approached the brunette, taking his hand. "I mean it. I love you, Tomonori-san." Tsukasa blushed. "I promise that I will never leave you." And then, to show that he knew, "Or Master, either."

Tomonori smiled before capturing his beloved Angel's lips in a kiss.

You my dream. Hold me.
Right now, I want to change these thoughts into words:
I love you.
You may dream.
Pure white love becomes wings,
As if the promise of an angel is coming true.


This was really short, but I like it. I read a lot of short fanfics, but I think that I put enough plot and story in here so that it wasn't unfulfilling. Well, once again, you guys let me know if I made any mistakes. I haven't done this genre before, and its been at least a year and a half since I read this series, (or written this story, actually). I hope to gain a few new fans with this one. Thanks folks.

"I will return, for I am the darkness…"
