Disclaimer: I do not own anything related in any way to Angelic Layer. I am only borrowing this anime's characters for my story; I plan on giving them back when I am done. This Disclaimer applies to the entire story of 'Angelic Layer: Angles and Oni' and this is the last place you are going to see it.

Okay now that we have that out of the way I can start talking about this piece of fan fiction. This story is based off of the anime version of Angelic Layer with maybe a piece of the manga thrown in here are there for good taste. If you have only read the manga you should know that there are some differences and you may not understand this story. Also, I have never seen the dubbed version of this anime, so I may make some occasional references that may not have carried through to the English language version. I don't imagine this is any big deal but if you read something that seems out of place remember that this may be the cause.

Now its time for a little background on this story, if you really hate introductions you can go ahead and skip to the story now; but I wouldn't recommend it. As you start to read you may notice this is a little bit darker then most 'Angelic Layer' fics tend to be, and there is good reason for this. I first watched this series in spring of this year (2005) right after I had a little 'mishap' with my back. For two entire months I couldn't walk or even sit up, I can easily say this is the worst pain I have ever felt, give me kidney stones any day!

As any self respecting Otaku who couldn't leave his bed would do, I watched anime. A whole lot of anime. After watching Angelic Layer I thought to my self Wow, what a great show! But why are they so happy? I bet they wouldn't be so happy if they couldn't walk, and had to miss JACON too! So thanks to insomnia and prescription narcotics 'Angelic layer: Angels and Oni' was born.

I planed from the beginning to make this fic about 20,000 words long, but I only got about 9000 words done before my back starting getting better. After I could start doing things on my own again this fic became low on my list of things to do. So for months it just sat on my hard drive, until now. I have proofread what I had done and started to add new content, with your support I hope to have this story done in no time! Please feel free to leave comments, just please make sure they are constructive. If you think I suck that is your opinion, but please tell me how to make my work better.

Now, what are you waiting for? Go read the story!
