Wow, chapter seven already. And I still have fans, as long as I get reviews the chapters will roll out. Now; on with the fic.

To Skittles the Sugar Fairy, saw your reviews on wanting a Tyson/Tala fic. So we have bits of it now in the fic, I was planning to do that anyway before the real Tyson/Kai romance began. If you want, I could start a Tyson/Tala fic for you.

Chapter Seven: Thoughts in the night

Once again they were in the village, night fell gently over the gently sloping valley. Once again they had been offered by Vash; a place to stay, they had agreed. They needed rest, especially after their meeting with Joe.

As Kai lay back in the small bed he had been offered, his crimson eyes looked at the white washed ceiling of the small room. His mind was a confused whirl, he knew there was some clue in that last bit Joe had given them... but he didn't know what it was.

He closed his eyes with a sigh, in his mind's eyes an image of a sapphire haired boy that never got a chance to grow up appeared. Sparkling heavenly blue eyes shone towards him after one of his many pranks, the crystal laughter that bubbled out always brining cheer to the Russian blader.

'Tyson' he thought, and since he was alone in the room and everyone else was asleep; he cried... cried for someone he realized he had loved even then.

But he had been stupid, Tyson had only seen the hard cold him... not the person beneath who wanted to his and kiss his blue eyed angel.

"Kami-sama, forgive me, he whispered, that night he cried himself to sleep.

***

The only sounds that met Tenshi's ears were the crackling of the fire, the sound of Tala sleeping and a few night noises.

With eyes reflecting the orange light from the campfire he looked at the sky, as he watched small golden sparks appeared.

Star's, a promise that all mortals wished to reach.

A promise he understood; a promise that all in the universe would finally be explained to the poor residents of that universe.

He snorted at that thought, he didn't want that promise... he wanted to discover those reasons by himself. He didn't want to be giving it on a silver platter, what was the use of life if you knew what it was all about.

'Strange, three years ago when I was known as Tyson and still human I would of grabbed that chance. I have changed so much' he thought, feeling quite warm he pulled off his robe.

His wings seemed to sigh in relief; the robe seemed to crush at them sometimes. He hated them sometimes, but he loved them the rest of the time.

He still remembered the startling pleasure he had felt at his first flight, it had been two months after his transformation. The reason for that flight, well he accidentally fell off the side of a cliff.

He sweatdropped at that, that adventure almost ended badly... He could have been a squished winged thirteen-year old if his wings hadn't been fully functional. He had realized after awhile that while some changed had things animals had they couldn't use them, he shivered remembering the grisly sight of the changed one trying to use the giant bee stinger they had gained in there transformation.

Suddenly he found a blanket being pulled around his shoulders, it was warm and he recognized it as the one Tala slept in.

"Tala?" he said startle, to his startlement Tala sat down next to him something strange in his usually emotionless blue eyes.

"You shouldn't let yourself get cold Tenshi," Tala said, Tenshi smiled then yawned tiredly.

"A few minutes ago it was blazing hot out here, at least for my robe," Tenshi said truthfully, Tala only blinked.

Together they sat there together looking at the night sky, soon Tenshi found himself growing sleepier...

***

Tala stiffened as something suddenly leaned against his side, frowning he looked down.

To his surprise Tenshi had fallen asleep and fallen against his side, unable to help himself he allowed himself a small smile.

Gently he pulled more of the blanket around the angelic being at his side; then pulling out another blanket from the stuff Tenshi had gotten for him lay down. In all this he had not let Tenshi fall, now he pulled the sleeping Tenshi to his chest and fell asleep.

He didn't know why, but he felt safer that night... also it felt as if he was protection the angel like humanoid in his arms.

"My angel," he whispered in his sleep, that night he slept with a warm smile on his face.

***

Miles away, so far it would take at least a week to walk another-being thought.

No description was needed, the stench of evil it seemed to emanate said everything.

"Soon, soon this world will be mine," it whispered, then it began to laugh in a terrible way... any that heard it wondered why there blood suddenly felt ice like.

Unknown to the world's populace, or what was left of it.

The final battle for the earth's fate would soon begin.
