With a soft thud landed the two angels in the grass. Kite looked around in amazing.
'So this is the place called Earth. I have heard stories about it, but I didn't know this place is so colourful and beautiful.' Pit sniggered a bit. All angels said exactly the same line.
'Yeah, it's pretty. But we shouldn't be too conspicuous, because people...'
'AAAH ANGEL!' screamed a woman a few yards away and Pit turned around. Pit facepalmed when he saw Kite shaking an unconscious woman. He walked to her and pulled Kite away at her wings.
'People are not used to see angels,' explained Pit and they ran to an empty field before the woman could wake up an call the police, Animal or secret Service.
'Right, we start with a flying training. So let see what you have.' Pit made a sign and Kite took off. She made a few antics and hovered a meter above the ground.
'And?' asked she still hovering.
'Like you never had any trouble at flying school,' said Pit and Kite smiled. Pit picked up a cobblestone and threw it into the air.
'Think fast!' said Pit and Kite shot the cobblestone to smithereens. Kite landed next to Pit and took a seat.
'I'm tired. What's about being an Alpha?' asked she and Pit took a seat to.
'I'm the only back-winged angel in Alpha, Beta and Gamma. Centurions are strong, but not very social. Being in front of Palutena makes me always happy. She is the mother figure I never had.'
'Don't worry. No one angel has parents. By the way, my stomach is rumbling.'
'Then let's go get something to eat,' said Pit. They decided to cram their wings under their togas and walked to the downtown area. They walked into the first eatery they found: a KFC.
'I would like to order two combi menus,' said Pit, who didn't know what kind of food it served. A few minutes later got Pit and Kite their food.
'It looks delicious, what is it?' asked Kite to the cashier.
'Spicy wings,' answered the cashier and the angels gave each other a frighten look and felt the feathered limbs on their backs made a movement.
'W...wings?' stuttered Pit slowly and the cashier looked at their clothes.
'Are you always wearing that?' asked the cashier to Kite, who looked anxious.
'Costume party!' shouted Kite in despair, maybe a bit too loud.
'Yes, theme party with an ancient Greek theme,' added Pit and took the food.
'Oh right then, do what you want to do,' said the cashier and the two angels walked away. They inspected their "spicy wings" and they took a bite. It is delicious, thought Pit and Kite also seemed to enjoy her lunch.
'It's a strange thought we are eating wings, but I like it,' said Kite. 'Shall we continue our training?' proposed she and they left the KFC.
They found a lawn area. Although it wasn't empty, it was a perfect place to practice archery. Pit hung targets at tree barks and people watched interested what they were doing. That wasn't a big deal, cause their wings were hidden.
'For your own safety, you should keep distance,' warned Pit and the people recoiled. Kite and Pit pulled out their bows. Pit saw Kite aiming at the target.
'Ho, Kite wait,' he said and walked to the other angel. Kite stopped pulling the string when Pit stood behind her.
'You are holding the bow a bit too low. Hold him something higher, like this.' He took both her hands and lifted them a bit up. Kite blushed and Pit realized this was a kinda embracing. Pit took a step backwards. Oh gods, this is very very uncomfortable, thought Pit. Kite released the arrow and hit the target. The people clapped, although the arrow barely hit the target.
'Amazing! Is that a new bow technology?' asked someone next to Pit and grabbed his Palutena's Bow. Pit startled of his action and he immediately grabbed it back.
'Uh yes, no strings. These are prototypes.' Pit tried to behave as nonchalant as possible. He noticed that Kite had some trouble with the air resistance of Earth.
After the trainings, Pit treated Kite to an ice cream. They sat at a bench near the lawn area. Pit was talking about his epic adventures and how he saved the over- and Skyworld thrice.
'And then I beat Hades once and for all!' Pit jumped up and made a heroic pose. Kite giggled.
'Wow, you are legendary!' smiled Kite.
'And how about your life?' asked Pit.
'Nothing that interesting. As you know I'm "a late fledgling". I'm the only angel with red eyes in my genotype and I really enjoyed the day.' The sun began to set and Kite stood up.
'I think it's time to return to Skyworld. What do you think?' They walked through a sheltered place, so nobody could see them fly away. Kite pulled her wings out her toga and shook them like a bird which just had taken a bath. Pit also intended to pull his wings out, but a strange fog appeared. It was thick white smoky fog, so Pit quickly lost his view at Kite.
'Pit? Where are you? Pit? I don't feel good...' Kite's afraid voice faded away. Pit heard rustled noises, probably from a seeking Kite.
'I'm here Kite!' shouted Pit and groped around him. That fog was so thick, so he couldn't see hand over eyes. A wave of nausea passed over him. I have to sit, thought Pit and dropped to his knees.
'Kite where are you?' whispered Pit and his eyes were so heavy that he closed them. His breathe slowed down and what he once saw as white, went black.
