Mai POV
Naru and I sat on a gravestone, fingers intertwined and no words passing between either of us. It was a comfortable silence; then again Naru makes everything seem comfortable for me. With my free hand I straightened out my dress, and wonder how it came that girl fallen angel received this particular uniform. I mean, it was a short black dress with ruffles, black thigh high socks, knee-high boots, and a white rose hair clip. And of course, wings and a scythe. We also have to wear a belt around our waists to hold said scythes (and some other items that could be needed in rounding up the dead). Boys also have wings, a scythe and a belt, but their outfits are much simpler. They were just black suits. Or white suits, if you were one of the lowest ranks. Everybody has a rank, ranging from 1 to 100, 1 being the highest and 100 being the lowest. Naru and I both fall into the 1 category, meaning that we are rare, because we were both psychics in our lives.
"Ne, Naru?" I ask. He turns to me.
"Yeah, Mai?" He asks. I point to a small bunch of people climbing out of some vans before walking up toward the church. They look very official, and it gives me a weird feeling in my stomach.
"Who do you think they are?" I inquire. He thinks for a moment, before rising, and grabbing his scythe that was right beside him.
"I guess we have to find out" He says. I nod, grab my scythe, and stand up. He intertwines are hands again, and we start floating up to the church roof. Once there, we both find a spot between some statues, and sit, observing the visitors. Barely anyone visited this place, since it was so deserted. The only people who live here currently are the priest, a few of his followers, and some orphan children (who are all no older than 14).
"Look at their van" I point to the writing on the side.
"SPR: Shibuya Psychic Research" He read.
"They're psychics?" I almost cheer.
"Apparently so Mai" Naru just says in his normally monotone voice. I roll my eyes and give him a playful push.
"Can't you be a little bit excited? I mean, they're psychics, just like us!" I jump up and down for a second before grabbing Naru's hand.
"What are you doing Mai?" He asks, as I try to pull him off the roof.
"What do you think I'm doing? I haven't seen another psychic except you for years! Let's go introduce ourselves" I say, as I still try to pull him off. He just sighs and grabs my wrist, and without any force what so ever, pulls me into a sitting position beside him.
"Mai, even though you're a one you're such an airhead." He shakes his head, a playful smirk pulling at his lips.
"Hey!" I cry, slapping him on the shoulder. He shoots me a look out of the corner of his eye and grabs my wrist again, pulling me onto his lap. Leaning in close he smirks at me. A light blush tints my cheeks.
"Mai. You know we can't expose ourselves. They might try to get rid of us. And I don't want to lose you. Do you want to lose me?" He asks. I don't trust my voice so I just clutch my scythe at my side and shake my head.
He smirks again, and leans in, giving me a kiss. I don't want to give into Naru, because we shouldn't do this kind of thing on the job, but I can't resist. My clutch on my scythe lessens and I put my free hand to his cheek. He puts his to my waist, and for a second I feel like I'm on cloud 9. Naru always does this to me, and it never gets old. We stay like that, until I'm so involved in the kiss that I don't notice that my grip on the scythe is a little too loose. Until it's too late, and it's falling to the church steps.
"Shit!" I curse, as Naru and I race after it. You may be wondering why I can't just let it fall and pick it up later, well there's a specific reason why I can't let my scythe out of my sight around mortals. If a mortal happens to see it, and pick it up, I am enslaved to them for as long as their family line has the scythe in their possession. Which is why, when I finally grasp the object in my fingers, I breathe a sigh of relief. Naru and I float softly to the ground and I grip the scythe in my hands, determined to keep it safe.
"You should be careful Mai" Naru scolds me, but I don't really pay much attention. Instead, I put it on my belt and grab his hand. He sighs, puts his scythe in his own belt, and squeezes my hand.
"Don't worry Naru. I will." I say, giving him a smile and a peck on the cheek. He glances at the church doors, which are closed up tight, before turning back to me.
"Come on Mai. Let's go before they find us." He says, before tugging at my arm. I roll my eyes. We're about to fly back up to the roof, when the doors creak open, revealing 6 new people (probably the members of SPR) and the priest. Naru and I freeze. They're talking, when the priest looks over and gasps.
"T-the demons!" He cries. The SPR members turn to us, and are in temporary shock. They recover when the priest faints, and a boy with black hair and a boy with blonde hair catch him. The others stare at us, before taking a few steps toward us. Naru and I immediately go for our scythes.
"Dammit!" I swear. Naru and I face the members of SPR (and the boys with black and blonde hair are back so its 6 against 2). A tall Chinese man with black hair and a man with brown hair approach us slowly.
"Umm, what exactly are you guys?" The one with brown hair asks. Naru and I exchange glances before we both put our scythes back.
"You really don't know what we are?" I ask, grabbing Naru's hand. They all shake their heads. A smile tugs at my lips, before I end up clutching my stomach in laughter. They all give me a curious look. Naru isn't laughing like me, but he is smirking. Soon, my laughter dies down.
"I can't believe they have no idea what Angels of Death are! Talk about psychics!" I say. The eyes of SPR widen, and they just stare at us. I realize what I said, and cover my mouth with my free hand. Naru just shakes his head, sighs, and pulls me away from them and into the dark forest behind the small rock wall surrounding the church and the graveyard.
"Hey! Wait! Comeback!" I hear them yell, but we just keep going, before the two of us go into a dark light and we stop floating, walking through the tunnel to the underworld.
-Underworld-
"You did WHAT?" Sato bellows. I bow in front of my 'boss'.
"I am sooooo sorry Sato-san!" I say. Naru is standing beside me, holding my hand. He glares at the two of us. Sato is a tall man, with jet black hair and brown eyes. He always wears military clothing, never the regular uniform like the rest of us. It's mostly because he's not in the ranks. If you excel above the Angel of Death ranks, then you become a death rebel. It's a very prestigious honor, and Naru and I are a few missions away from becoming one. But I wonder how this will affect us..
"Sorry won't cut it next time Taniyama" He grumbles. I squeeze Naru's hand.
"Huh?" We both ask. Exposing yourself as an Angel of Death means an automatic rank demotion. Doesn't it?
"I said, next time you screw up, I won't be as merciful" He says, lighting a cigarette. It takes me a moment, but I register what he's said.
"Oh thank you Sato-san!" I cry, jumping on him and giving him a kiss on the cheek. He just grimaces and takes me off him, placing me on the floor.
"Yeah yeah. You and Naru aren't getting demoted this time, but I won't be as nice next time. Now go. You two still have a job at that church don't you?" He says, waving his hand.
"But sir, we can't go back. They'll be looking for us" Naru says. We're both confused.
"Yes you can. And you are. This mission is more important than some psychics. I don't care what those psychics do. Just turn them into Angels of Death or something." Naru is about to protests but is silenced by a glare. Nobody can ignore his orders.
"No back-talk you two. This mission decides whether or not you become death rebels. Now, repeat your mission to me." He orders. Naru lets out a sigh.
"We are to find the double-crossing death angel and bring him to you or Dante. He is to be caught as soon as possible, before he becomes a Guardian." I recite. Guardians are guardian angels, and if this double-crosser becomes one then we'll never get him. I watch as Sato smiles.
"Good. Now, get out there, Taniyama, Davis." He says.
"Yes boss" We both mutter, before going out of his office and towards the tunnel. This is going to be one long mission….
Rain: Well? How was it? Should I continue? Or should I trash it? I'm relying on your guys' opinions! I honestly hope you like it, but if not, it's ok. I'm just glad you took the time to read it :)
