Yes, I am aware how short this chapter is. Sorry. I'm kind of under the weather and school is already pretty stressful heh. I'll make the next chapters longer, I promise.

I.A. had been flying for at least more than three hours; and for some reason her wings seemed extremely achy. With every beat they grew more and more strained.
"Ugh…" She muttered quietly to herself. "This is impossible…The atmosphere here is absolutely awful…Why the hell am I even flying…?"
I.A. sighed and landed on the ground, her tired wings dragging limply behind her on the ground. She still hadn't even thought of the reasons why one was black and the other white. She hadn't even thought about her Father or brother.
The winged girl sat down on a bed of pushed over grass and laid down on it, exhaustion filling her. Even though she had slept at Prince Len Kagamine's house, she had continually awoke from bad dreams and ended up barely sleeping in the end.
Her achy wings didn't bother folding themselves up and instead just lied limply next to I.A.'s tired body. Her mind, however, was in no mood for resting.
I wonder…She thought to herself, …If Father really hates me…I thought he said I love you as he left but that might've been my mind playing tricks on me. For all I know he could've said he hated me. He's not even my real Father…
A THAP sounded in the soundless air and I.A. sprang up, despite her exhaustion. "W-Who is there?! Show yourself!"
I.A.'s blue eyes looked down to see an animal at her feet, its small body shaking and fear apparent in its eyes.
"Oh. Hello little one…" I.A. said, her voice quiet and loving. "Don't worry, I won't hurt you. My name is Imperial Adversary. What's yours…?" Slowly she reached her hand out to the frightened creature, not even daring to breathe. Gently, her pale hand reached the small animal and lightly kept it on top of its head.
The creature stared at her, its brown eyes studying her.
"Ah. What a lovely name Sika Deer." I.A. said as she pet the deer's head. "I'm sure we'll be great friends. Do you want to sleep with me?"
The young deer nudged back against her hand in response and I.A. smiled wearily. The winged girl laid back down, as did her new friend beside her chest.
"Now I finally have someone to talk to…" I.A. said, stroking its back lightly as its rhythmic breathing calmed her. "Believe it or not, I am a Damned Soul. I'm apparently half Fallen One and half Angel. So basically I am something that shouldn't have been born…I'm a giant mistake…"
The small deer closed its eyes and got itself closer to I.A. Its warmth made her happy and she smiled once more. "I bet your parents love you. I wonder where my mom is…I don't even know if she's alive. Father made up a lie about her being an Angel too…I wonder what else that damn man lied to me about…"
The young deer suddenly perked its relaxed head up, it's once calm eyes totally incased in fear.
"What's wrong Sika Deer?" I.A. asked, too exhausted to really be scared. "Is someone here?"
The deer stood its ground for a bit; it's long boney legs shaking widely. But abruptly it took off, running as fast as the wind through the lush grass.
"Wait!" I.A. exclaimed. She urged her body to get up and run after it, but her achy muscles refused and remained limp. "P-Please…don't leave me here…alone…I don't want to be alone…"
But the young deer was long gone.
"I…I don't understand what's going on…" The sweet-voiced girl mumbled to herself and stared blankly at the large blue sky above her. "Please…I just want to understand…I…I just want to go home…"
Tiredness took over her, and within seconds of the words escaping her lips her eyelids covered her blue eyes, and she went into an uneasy slumber.
Dreams entered her brain, but none of them really made sense. One was of Len Kagamine, one was of K.A., and one of her ever-present Father. Unlike most times however, her Father wasn't the hero in the dream. He was the villain that kidnapped the beautiful Princess I.A.
Just as her dream began ending, a loud sound erupted into her thoughts and cleared everything else away.
DING DING DING
The sound of the silver bell she'd given Prince Len Kagamine…
