Chapter Two: Sorrow

In the Shrine in Paradise...

Standing in front of the alter were several pure angels. They fluttered their white wings in discomfort, all of their many colored eyes locked on Jim, the speaker. Jesse was standing in the corner.

"It is a shame what has happened here. Our worst nightmare has been realized," the aussie angel said. The other angels murmured above one another, but were silenced by Jim.

"A tainted angel has been made!" Jim said sadly. The other angels gasped and started whispering to one another, concern etched on their faces. They all started panicking.

SMASH!!

The angels looked over at Jesse, who had punched a hole in the wall, his hair covering his eyes and his teeth grit in anger. Jesse was trembling, tears streaming down his cheeks.

"It's my fault. If I had rescued him... I-I would have stopped this if I had only passed my classes and was able to become a pure angel and go to him. If I wasn't such a coward..." the bluenette whispered.

"Jesse... There is a way..." Jim said, causing Jesse to gasp.

Three Days Later on Earth...

The sun was just barely setting, casting bright orange sunlight across the rolling hills. Small cliffs rested at the base of the gentle forests, turning orange with the sunlight.

Standing on the cliffs was Jaden. Jaden's hair was still short in the back, and it was still the same color. The brunette still had white wings, only they had a dark tint to them. His eyes remained the same color, but their kind light was gone.

Jaden was clothed in a red gothic corset-top with a black open tunic over it. The tunic came to his thighs and then cut off, tied closed by a redsash around Jaden's waist. On his feet were semi-short black boots.

On Jaden's left thigh was a black marking. It looked like a horseshoe made of vines, and had a strange arrow-vine shape in the center of it. The mark was fairly good sized, covering almost all of Jaden's thigh.

The brunette sighed and looked up at the sky before plopping down on the ground and hanging his head sadly, tears starting to fall down his cheeks. Jaden cupped his face in his hands and sobbed.

"I... should have entered the Gates of Destruction when I had the chance to! I can't stand being a tainted angel anymore! I want Jesse... I wanna go home..." Jaden sobbed loudly as the sun set over the land, turning everything black and sorrowful.

Just like Jaden's heart.

Back in Paradise...

Jesse stood by the Gates of Earth, a painting that would bring anything that stepped through it into Earth. The bluenette grit his teeth before taking a step towards the painting.

"Jesse?" Jim called. The bluenette stopped and looked over at Jim, determination in his green eyes, startling the aussie greater angel. Jesse hesitated before speaking slowly.

"I'm gonna rescue Jaden..." he said. Jim nodded before crossing his hands over his heart, telling Jesse that it was all right to leave and go to Earth to rescue the brunette.

With that, Jesse leaped into the portal.

Cause there are these nights when
I sing myself to sleep
And I'm hoping my dreams bring you close to me
Are you listening

Adrian's Lair...

"Come here, Jaden..." Adrian said, beckoning the brunette over to him. Jaden slowly walked over to Adrian before finding himself locked in a bone-crushing embrace. The brunette squirmed a little before resting into the embrace, his face twisted in disgust.

"Soon, Jaden. Soon this world will pay for everything it's done to you. And then... Paradise along with it..." the red-head said, laughing evilly as he did so.

Jaden groaned slightly, getting sick and tired of Adrian always laughing like an idiot. He was tired of Adrian holding him like a lover, and he was tired of all the talk of destroying Paradise.

'Jesse...' Jaden thought sadly, lowering his head slowly.

SPIRITSHIPPING 4 EVER

Hear me, I'm crying out
I'm ready now
Turn my world upside down, find me
I'm lost inside the crowd, it's getting loud
I need you to see
I'm screaming for you to please
Hear me
Can you hear me

The Shrine in Paradise...

Jim looked in the mirror and cringed slightly, seeing his reflection so pale and worried looking. He felt miserable right now, and nothing was making him feel better. Concern was lacing his face with a pained look.

"Jesse... Jaden... I hope you're safe..." the aussie said before curling up on a bed and closing his eyes, allowing sleep to overcome him and make his worries go away until morning.

SPIRITSHIPPING 4 EVER

I used to be scared of letting someone in
But it gets so lonely, being on my own
No one to talk to
No one to hold me
I'm not always strong
Oh, I need you here
Are you listening

Cliff Side on Earth...

Jesse slowly walked up on a cliff side, his head lowered and looking at the ground solemnly. He had been searching all day and hadn't seen Jaden anywhere.

'Maybe he isn't anywhere near here...' the bluenette thought sadly. He suddenly spotted someone sitting on the cliff, their back facing him. The person had white wings and short brown hair in the back. Jesse gasped silently.

'Jaden!' the bluenette thought happily. Suddenly, a strange light came and smashed into Jesse from up above. The bluenette gasped loudly in shock and surprise.

"GYAA!!" he hollered, which caught Jaden's attention.

"Who's there!?" Jaden hollered, spinning around suddenly, his nails almost like claws, his face twisted in anger and slight terror. As he spun around, the look was replaced by shock.

Standing in front of him was Jesse. Jesse's black wings had been replaced by white ones, spotless white wings. His outfit was replaced by a white one with more navy designs than before, and he seemed more attractive in a slight way.

"J-Jesse...? Is that really you?" Jaden asked, shock filling his tone. Jesse nodded, his eyes filled with mild shock. Jaden smiled warmly before nodding his head.

"I'm happy for you..." he whispered, a slight sadness filling his tone.With that, Jaden turned away slowly and started to walk away. Jesse gasped and lunged forward, grasping Jaden's wrist tightly.

Suddenly, Jesse's hand felt like it was on fire.

SPIRITSHIPPING 4 EVER

I'm restless and wild
I fall but I try
I need someone to understand (can you hear me)
I'm lost in my thoughts
And baby, I fought for all that I've got
Can you hear me

SPIRITSHIPPING 4 EVER

"AAAAAAGH!!" Jesse screamed, prying his hand back and clutching it tightly, whimpering at the pain that still coursing through his veins. Jaden trembled slightly before smiling sadly.

"Pure angels can't touch tainted angels, or they get burned. So... I can't even... lay a finger on you..." the brunette whispered sadly. He made a reach for Jesse and then stopped, prying his hand back sadly before turning away.

"Farewell..." he whispered, flapping his wings and fluttering off sadly. Jesse, still clutching his hand, raced forward and stopped at the cliff edge, shouting after the brunette.

"JADEN!!"

Hear me, hear me, hear me, hear me
Can you hear me (oh, no)
Hear me hear me, hear me

Another Cliff Side...

Jaden sat on the cliff, sobbing his heart out into his hands. Tears of pain were sliding from his brown eyes and Jaden whimpered before crying loudly again.

"I can't even touch Jesse! There's no point in telling him how I feel now!!" Jaden screamed, tears coursing harder down his pale cheeks. The sun started setting over the small brunette.

The sky was mimicking his heart.

Cave Underground...

Jesse walked in the cave where Jaden had gotten his hair cut off. He stepped into a small place and found a burnt body laying on the ground, right next to Jaden's hair, which was totally unharmed.

"Seigami! You bastard!!" Jesse hollered, crunching his foot onto the burnt creature's body. He heard water dripping and looked up, his eyes widened in as he did so.

"You are..." he whispered in shock at what he saw.

Back in Paradise...

"Atticus, go to Earth and bring Jesse back. It's too dangerous to have him running after Jaden like that," Jim said, pointing at the portal to earth.

Atticus, a pale brown haired boy nodded before making a mad dash for the portal, his back wings fluttering him down to Earth to retrieve the bluenette pure angel.

"Jesse... I pray that you forgive me..." Jim whispered before closing his eyes and walking away down the halls of the Paradise to check on the other dark angels.

Somewhere on Earth...

"Jaden Yuki..." Atticus whispered. Jaden sat up and looked over at the dark angel standing behind him. Atticus sighed and then opened his brown eyes before speaking.

"I have come to... take Jesse back to Paradise..."

"No!! You can't!!" Jaden screamed, leaping up and glaring at the brunette before him. Atticus shook his head slowly and then reached a hand forward, beckoning the brunette towards him.

"I must... To bring safety to Jesse, and protect him from Adrian's clutches..." he said before rushing at Jaden, prepared to kill him. Jaden growled and rushed back, ready to kill the dark angel.

"I will never allow Jesse to be taken away by you!!" the brunette yelled. Atticus leaped back and landed gently on his feet before glaring up at the tainted angel standing before him.

"Why do you care? You can't touch him, so why care for him?" Atticus asked. Jaden gasped and looked at the ground, trembling slightly.

"Because I... I..." Jaden then gasped and rushed at Atticus, ready to kill him, his eyes wide with rage.

"Because I want to protect him!!"

"JADEN!!"

Jaden gasped and stopped attacking when he heard Jesse's southern-accented voice call out to him. The tainted angel looked over at the bluenette pure angel and gasped.

Standing next to Jesse were 2 other pure angels. One was a boy who had blue hair, gray eyes with glasses, and the other one was a female with blonde hair and yellowish eyes. Jaden gasped.

"Syrus!? Alexis!?"

--

Me: SYRUS AND ALEXIS ARE ALIVE!!

Lucy: YES!!

Me: Now maybe Jaden can become a pure angel!

Lucy: Maybe!

Me: ...However...

Lucy: What?

Me: It's really sad how Jaden can't even touch Jesse without burning him.

Lucy: I know. But it might get better!

Me: Please review and tell us what you liked and didn't like!

Lucy: Hoped you enjoyed it!
