Chapter Six
What Hide in Shadows
From its perch of a nearby light post a raven glided down and settled itself in front of the girl that had gone unconscious. The raven crowed and then pecked at her feathers. From the shadows came the boy in black. "Good work Diva." He threw the raven some crumbs and she ate them gratefully.
The boy kneeled down and looked at the girl. She looked on the pale side and her hair was as dark as his, but he could see some blond streaks coming out. He took out a knife and cut the jacket, but took care not to cut her wings. The moment the jacket was cut her wings unfurled and they stretched out even though their barer was still out cold. The boy touched the white snow wing and saw that there seemed to be nothing wrong with it there was nothing wrong with the other wing either.
"Diva, go steel some water." The boy told his companion. The raven screeched and was off.
The boy adjusted the girl's wings so that they weren't squished by the concrete and her back. He took of the girl's jacket and used it as a pillow for her. He had to do this fast or else she was going to wake up and he had no intention of being seen, not just yet.
Diva came back with a small bucket full of water in her beak.
"Thank you Diva, I promise as soon as possible I'll get you a good nice stake." If birds could purr, Diva was very close to it.
The boy took out a black vile and mixed it with the water. "This should put it in check." Once the water was completely black he pressed it agents her lips, but they would not open. "Damn it. Open up!" He pressed the bucket harder, but the water was starting to spill out from the corner of her mouth. He didn't have that much time. He poured the black liquid into his own mouth, but he did not swallow. The boy lifted the girl's head and pressed his mouth to hers and forced her mouth open. The black water went into her and she swallowed without once waking up.
Once all the liquid was gone he set her down and then stood up. "Let's go Diva." And just like that they both disappeared into the shadows.
Across the street in an abandoned apartment watching all that had happened up to the boy disappearing, a tall scruffy man that looked like someone that you would see in Peoples magazine smiled a grin that would have made any girl fall to their knees.
"Well well…never thought I'd bump into you, Seth." He lowered his binoculars and his face seemed to change to that of a wolf. "I have a feeling that things are going to get interesting. Around here."
