Well, apparently Hiro can somewhat cook now. *nibbles on Hiro made pancake* I kinda left Keri for the last couple chapters, & I want to introduce her more, so I'm gonna take some time for that. She is an important character after all & I've been putting her on the back burner.

Keri sat perched on the cushion to the Peter Pan style window seat in her room, reading a human book she found named 'The Servant of The Bones' It was a peculiarity, yet interest book. It was about an elderly man, meeting a ghost that became human again, & his story in the man's perspective. Or at least that's what Keri got out of it. She closed the book & gazed out her windowsill. The young angel saw the human City of Lights, Paris she believed, under her, she had one of the few rooms that got a perfect view of The Eiffel Tower.

Keri sighed, removing herself from the window. Artist's Easel's bungle of noise were the perfect music to draw to. She then grabbed her notebook, filled with famous hand drawn landscapes, & sat in her dangling woven chair near her bed. Her room was pretty neat, if she did say so herself, which she did.

There was a Peter Pan window seat, with navy cushions. Next to it a giant green, cube shelved bookcase, after that being a flat screen with black painted swirls on it, with a viewing section with a couch full of pillows, a navy-grey beanie chair, a pink drawer coffee table, with a letter rug under it.

Behind the couch was a huge chalkboard, with a wardrobe with a tree design, split by a desk & hanging bookshelf, a gothic dressing screen being i front of it. In the center, hanging from the ceiling, was an assortment of different colored paper lanterns, varying in size. She also had an aged, Victorian vanity, near her window. There was a door too, then a stage that contained her multi-quilt like bedspread, her drum like night stand with knick-knacks & was mirror with a twisted branch attached, & a black, woven chair that hung from the ceiling with neon green cushions. Lastly there was skater red & black graffiti behind her bed.

She though the whole room was wicked.

Keri flipped to the page of the San Franokyo Bridge. Once she found out about her partner, she began to study his environment, along with all the other ones she studied. Most would call the angel's study of humans an obsession, but to her it was research. It was only best to know what she was to protect, to see who to suspect, how to fit in better, & the best places to fight.

She loved the human species, even if she had never really met one. Yes, Keri loved them, but that loved, in a way, rooted from envy. Most had families, friends, people they could joyously interact with. Not her, her parents turned dark & had their wings revoked & were beheaded, she was the only one her age she knew, she wasn't allowed to interact with other 13-year old Angels. The superiors feared her reaction, judged on her parents.

Keri had no one.

Well... Hiro could count, but she barely knew him. 'Yeah, he's not a friend...' Thought Keri, 'yet, anyway' Actually Hiroshi Hamada was, in fact, the only entity that she had, had contact with besides superiors & older angels in the A.M.E.P.A. Was she lonely? To no end.

Moreover, back to what Keri was doing. Once she had opened to the page of the bridge, she began to finish the shading with her charcoal pencil. *kczz, kczz*

Kerri's head life's from her drawing to her laptop. It was Cyril Haulton. Her her & Hiro's chief advisor. The girl dropped the notebook & sprinted to the spider web chair at her desk. " ?"

*Ah yes, . I was wonder when you would notice someone on your scene.* said Haulton monotonely, over the video chat.

"Sorry, Sir."

*Never mind that. I have to assign you your mission within a time frame you know*

"A mission?!" Squealed Keri, but she then cleared her throat to sound more professional, "A mission? Where sir?"

*Ah, I thought you would ask that. In New York City there has been high reports of 'unearthly mischief' I request you & , to take care to the subject. It seems to be a fairly straight forward assignment, so it's ideal for your first*

Keri gave the man a quick salute, "We won't let you down, sir!" And with that she closed the chat. 'Ohhh, my first mission~' Keri internally sang, 'I have to set the job for tonight!' The young angel picked up her green iPhone 5c (AN: Yep, might as well) and began to speed dial the certain angel she had as 'Hiro', under contacts.

#San Franokyo Institute Of Technology#

Hiro was cheating with the group in the lab when he felt a buzz in his pocket. "Huh?" The boy took his phone out of his pocket, finding a text from Keri. He unlocked his phone to read it.

Keri: *Hey, I'm going to need to call you. Important*

Hiro: *okay then. Just don't try screaming through the phone like Fred*

Keri: *I make no promises. You have me the idea*

Hiro: *Don't*

Hiro put his phone back to turn back to the conversation about electro mag suspension. Unfortunately, it didn't last long for the angel, cause his phone started singing Dirty Little Freaks by

P!nk. 'Damn! I never set that!' Thought Hiro, 'Must have been Keri'

He pretty much knew who it was.

He had a special ringtone for everyone on his contacts. GoGo was Scary Monsters & Sprites by Shrillex. Aunt Cass was The Cuppycake Song by Buddy Castle. Wasabi was My OCD by Rhett & Link. (A/N: You all know it fits) Fred was Kryptonite by 3 Doors Down. Honey Lemon was Circus by Britney Spears. Lastly, Tadashi was 1,2,3,4 by The Plain White T's. But Hiro had never had a ringtone as Dirty Little Freaks.

The gang conversation stopped, everyone stared at Hiro. He chuckled out of embarrassment for the 2nd time that day. "Uh, guys. I need to take this." The 13-year old began to walk away until he saw Tadashi get up "Alone." The elder brother sat back down.

Hiro stood near the steps of the Ito Ishioka Robotics Lab, accepting the call at last.

"Cadet calling in for command."

*Finally! I thought your phone died or something!* said Keri on the other end.

"Hey, it wouldn't have taken so long if you didn't pick THAT for a ringtone"

*Shush! You know Dirty Little Freaks by P!nk fabulous! Don't deny it~*

Keri's little outburst made Hiro laugh. "Yeah, yeah. Okay, so what did you want to tell me anyway?"

*Guess who just got us out 1st mission~*

The young superhero was ecstatic, "Sick! Where is it?"

*We're hitting New York baby! We should get there by about 10:00 tonight, okay?*

"Sweet. Meet you up at HQ about 15 minutes before then."

*Alright, bye. This is going to be so wicked~! Huh? Is this still on?* With that the phone call came to a close. Hiro couldn't help but laugh at his partner's antics. Keri was certainly an interesting character, defiantly someone to bring life to the party.

The genius locked his phone & jogged back to the group. They were talking about who-knows-what, till they saw Hiro. All eyes were on him in curiosity. Fred was the first to speak. "So, who was that?"

Hiro brushed his question off like flour on the café counter, "No one"

Wasabi decided to take part in the banter, "That's some ringtone."

"Yeah Hiro, I didn't think you liked the kind of music." Commented Honey Lemon.

"I don't. Someone else set the ringtone."

"Oh really?" GoGo saw Hiro as a little brother, there was no way she could let a chance to embarrass him a bit slide, "Honey, Wasabi, & I wouldn't do it. Tadashi, Fred, & Cass would pick something else. Who is this someone?" A smirk grew on her face.

The boy tried to avoid what the adrenaline junkie was saying by tinkering on some microbots, "No one you know."

"Oh~ A special secret someone~" Fred wiggled his eyebrows, much to Hiro's embarrassment.

"Oh~ A secret relationship! So kawii~", sand Honey.

"What?! No!" Shouted Hiro, crimson faced, "It's not like that at all! You just don't know her!" Hiro slapped a hand over his mouth.

Wasabi was now rolling on the floor laughing, "So its a her?!"

"Y-yeah! But that doesn't mean I'm in that kind of relationship!"

"Good." Tadashi finally broke in, hanging his shoulder over his baby brother's neck, "You aren't aloud to date, especially not without telling me about the special person. Or before I get a girlfriend."

Hiro rolled his eyes. A partnership was a relationship, but not in the context his friends were putting it. He could have a friend his own age that was female. Yet again, they couldn't be blamed for the situation. A ringtone WAY out of his taste range, refusing to let anybody hear the conversation, the person on the other end being a her.

He wanted to prove them wrong by showing it was only a professional call, but that wouldn't end well. Not only would he have his neck on the guillotine, but Keri's, too. Most likely even get them both de-winged. Talj about ultimate humiliation. The misunderstandings would just have to be felt with. For him & Keri.

#With Keri#

Keri was busy packing. She had weapons out the wazoo. Even here brand new, specially designed scythe, that she could summon from her palm at will. It was glacier white with delicate aqua swirls from the start of the blade, down the staff till it reached a large, cherry red canine tooth at the bottom. To top it all off, there was a black silk bow at the top. She had Hiro's custom scythe resting on her bed till he came.

Yep, She was pretty much all set. Now all that was needed was to get dressed in something for Winter in the Big Apple. She needed a human disguise. 'hmm, I wonder...'

Welp, that's it for now. I said it would be out in a 2 through 4 days, but I had time so I wrote this. I have no life at all o_o Zilch, nada, non. Well, bye.
