-----

Everything was dark around me. the sky, the buildings, the street and me. My head hurt from the little light that was being shed by the moon. With all the strength i could muster i sat up just to fall over again. "i am never going to get up!!" i growled. i had been at this sense sunrise.

/ just give up./

I AM NOT GIVING UP!! i screamed in my head.

/fine, just die here. /

maybe i will . i snarled before again trying to get up, and again finding my lower half not cooperating. With a sigh of defeat i closed my eyes. I had always been a loner, no friends, no one to comfort or to help me. I lived off the street, and i lived a lot better than you think. Growling i opened my eyes to stare at the starry sky above me...

flashback

"Come on, i know you want to talk about something, what?" Miya asked chasing me from the other side of the pool. Diving into the pool i swam under her and over to the diving board. "Why wont you tell me?"

"Cuse you wouldn't understand" I said simply before lifting myself out of the pool and onto the diving board. she grabbed the edge of it and stared at me.

"Just tell me i know you want to" I growled at her and launched myself over her and into the pool crouching on the bottom of the pool.

surfacing i swam over to the edge. putting my chin on the edge i just watched one of the tiki torches burn. "that's bad for your eyes ya know" she pointed out. i stayed silent, lost in my own thoughts.

End Flashback

I sighed at that memory. Ok so i hadn't always been alone. Miya was my best friend. But she died not too long ago, by my hands. I don't remember actually doing it, but i came too with her dead and me covered in blood. Shocked I just ran.

I always run, its habit, and its just instinct. I had a friend, a guy friend, but after i killed Miya i couldn't bring myself to talk to anyone. I am now in Ohio and the cool night is fuelling me. With one last attempt i was standing. "Yes" I breathed.

A shadow fell over me. With a jerk i turned to the entrance to the ally. The moon hit my back and for s split second the person saw a winged human, with a tail, before i was gone, to the rooftops. With a hiss i dug my claws into the rooftop. I knew that face...

The snow white wings on my back spilled feathers over my shoulders and down my back. I wore a black tank top shirt, and black pants. A pure white tail coiled around my feet as i avoided ripping the ceiling off this building.

I came to the one place i thought i would know no one, and find the last person i want to talk to. I watched the red, black and gold haired man walk off, completely confused. Glancing at the moon i scowled. will you stop shinning at me? immediately a shadow formed around me and my wings and tail disappeared. not tonight, tomorrow, i have to feed then anyways... i sighed and stretching, walked off the building landing with a soft thump. turning the corner i headed toward the motel.

------

"So she's back in town?" I asked myself as i sat on the end of my bed. "I wonder what shes been up to? she went missing for 4 years.. ever sense the day before her 16th birthday..." Taking off my shoes and socks i flopped backward onto the bed. "I wonder if she's alright, and how she just disappeared." With that thought in mind i drifted into sleep.

I rose with the sun, dressing and running about, getting ready for my job. Looking in the mirror i grumbled and ruffled my hair, making it lie down a bit. throwing a coat over my shoulders i ran out the door. Jumping onto my motorcycle i sped down the street.

After i got settled behind the counter i started making doughnuts and those are hard to make. I mean i hate glazing them, but that's besides the point. The door tolled and i whipped around just to see white eyes widen in shock. Her silver hair was done up in s simple pony tail, and she wore a grey tank top with black shorts. She stuttered for a moment.

"Oh screw it, give me a doughnut" She said throwing her wallet at me.

"You actually trust me with this?" I asked holding up the wallet.

"Just get me the damn doughnut" she called sitting down in a stool she found and placed next to the counter. I threw up my hands and taking the money she owed tossed it back at her along with her doughnut, strawberry frosting. "I was about to leave, but man i am hungry" She looked down, pocketed the wallet and took a bite out of the pink frosted thing.

"So what ya been up to?" I asked milling around, getting things in order.

"Running" She said looking up at me. "you know me" I nodded.

"In fact i do, but what was that last night?" She laughed.

"A car hit me yesterday morning" I flipped around. She was laughing, how could she? "I couldn't get up so i just laid there till it was cold enough and got up." She said licking her fingers. Her white eyes blinked at me.

"Heh" i snorted looking at the counter, "you get hit by a car and are barely dinted." I said turning to wipe off a shelf.

"Ya know, i only stayed cause i have been dieing to see you again, i can leave" That touched a nerve.

"If you have been dieing to see me why did you leave in the first place?" I snapped. "You were so happy i remember how you used to glow with happiness then one day you disappear and show up again with a bad attitude and quite a dirty vocabulary!!!" I yelled.

Tears brimmed her eyes, threatening to fall. With one word she turned and hurried out, "red" That one word confused me to no end. A hand waved in front of my face.

"Hey, dude are you alright?" Jou asked in front of me. I snapped out of it, not even hearing the bell. "What's up?"

"Oh, Hi Jou, no its nothing" i said shaking my head. /what does red have to do with anything?/ i thought.

Flashback

Running up to the little circle of people I almost collided with someone. The boy glared at me. I just smiled and listened. "Alright! Plan start!" She shouted and everyone scattered. I stood and watched everyone leave.

"What plan?" I asked she just grinned.

"RED!" She exclaimed happily and jogged off.

"Red?? what does that mean?!?!" i shouted. She just turned around and pointed at the construction sight behind me.

"Meet me there at sun down!" She called before joining her friends and their 'plan'

End flashback

I busied myself all day, making things and selling them. it wasn't a tough job, but my favorite was at night, i had two jobs, mostly cause i liked a reason to get up in the morning and a reason to stay up late, and two jobs was the answer.

"Jou?" He looked over his shoulder at me.

"Yeah?"

"When's sun down?" I asked he finished what he was doing.

"Umm i don't know, around 8?" I nodded. I would be off work by then.
Everything went by pretty fast after that. Nothing much happens anyway. At seven i slipped my jacket back on. "See you later! I hear there's a new dancer tonight, wonder if their any good" Jou nodded and shooed me out the door.

Jumping onto my motorcycle i sped away, looking for the nearest construction sight i knew off. Surprisingly i got there just as the sun started to paint the sky. Looking around i spotted the highest point and sure enough there she sat.

She was facing the setting sun her long silver hair playing on the slight breeze. She wore extremely baggy black pants with white strips at the knee and bottom. Her shirt was the same as it was this morning.

"So you remembered" She said still not looking at me. "Nice bike" This time she turned and before i knew it was standing in front of me. "Want to know why I disappeared?" I nodded. She looked to where the moon would be in a few hours. "What are you doing tonight?"

"I have a job, Ever seen Moonlight?" I asked.

"Yeah, you work at a bar?" I laughed and nodded.

"Most popular one at that" I grinned. She just shook her head.

"Anyways stop by the back door round 10 i can slip out for a bit, i do anyways." She nodded and before i knew it she was gone. "okkk" shaking my head i went home to change, i had a job to do.

-----

I watched him speed away from on top of a crane. "Now i cant wait to see why you work there, but i think i know" I smiled and glanced at the setting sun. "I can make it home..." Spreading my wings i jumped off and started towards home, or well a rooftop I liked.

/So your going to tell him?/

Yeah, i have to, i have been dieing to see him, i cant avoid him.

/you did before/

that was cause I was scared,.

/sorry for that, now get ready, i will try to stay off of you till you tell him but dont dilly dally too long its going to look suspicious./

alright, thanks.

Running a hand through my hair i landed on the roof. I pulled on my gloves, they had a ring so it should go over my middle finger and came all the way up just below my elbow. I tied my hair back and with a grin on my face launched myself into the air, doing a back flip before i headed towards Moonlight.

I landed on the roof and smiled, wings disappearing. An idea hit me. Jumping off the roof I slipped inside and had a little chat with the owner of the bar.

-----

Dressed in black leather pants and a fishnet shirt i took the back entrance to the bar and stepping behind the actual bar i started setting up, the drinking crowd not to be showing for another 30 min.

Slowly people moved in and the music started with a original dancer. I looked up then went back to filling orders. "Hey man!" Jou said stepping to the other side of me. "Sorry I'm late"

"That's ok I got it covered." I said. He smiled.

I went on filling orders and dodging hands. It was about 10 minuets till 10 o'clock and i was getting ready to slip out when the music started again, this time with a song I did not know. I looked up and nearly toppled over at the sight.

She stood center stage dressed in all white. She wore a short white shirt and a long white skirt. gloves decorated her arms and bracelets were up her arms and legs. Two snow white wings were behind her and slowly she started moving to the music. I nearly fell over as she started singing, first words i heard being 'heaven on earth'

Jou took one look at me and laughed. "What's wrong?" I ignored him and just watched her dance. She looked at me and locked gazed before spiraling to the back of the stage and disappearing, song over.

"Um...i knew her" I said at last and vaulting the bar i went outside. Sure enough she showed a little later, still in her dancing clothes. "I never knew you could dance... or sing!" I finally choked out.

"Quite the tomboy or whatever, wasn't i?" She asked. I nodded.

"Anyways, when i turned 16 this happened," She paused to let the snow white wings unfold around her and a white wolven tail swished into existence. "Frightened i tried to find some place i could go, and in the process killed my best friend. After that I just fled not caring where i went as long as no one knew me." She sighed.

I stood and gawked at her. She looked at me and waved a hand in front of my face. When i didn't respond she shook her head and disappeared into the night sky.

When i came back to reality i fell to my knees and just stared at the ground wishing i could go poof Standing I caught sight of the white dot against the black sky. "no way" Jumping onto my bike i chased her. i was not letting her run again, she really had a bad habit of that.

-----

Landing on my rooftop i huddled on the ground folding stuff and making sure i had everything. "I must have been nuts to think anyone would understand" I mumbled to myself

/no you were just hopeful/

yeah and that worked so well i thought. "My only chance now is to disappear, for real this time" I said to myself.

"No" A voice said from behind me. I turned to see Yami out of breath from climbing the ladder. "No" he panted again. I turned back to my pack.

"Yami I cant be here anymore, i am a freak of nature" I said throwing my pack over one shoulder. He tackled me from behind but i caught myself before falling over. he had his arms wrapped around my neck and put his chin on my shoulder.

"No... Alya you cant just leave again, you said yourself you had been dieing to see me again, then why are you leaving?" I sighed. dropping the pack I peeled Yami off of me and turned around.

"No i have to leave, i am doing this for the sake of everyone, no one cares about my strange abilities." Looking up from the spot on the ground that i had currently found interesting, i met a pair of crimson eyes before he captured my lips in a kiss. I jerked backwards, a bit surprised. My wings carried me into the air where i hovered for a second then was gone.

---------

I sighed and picking up the pack she abandoned flung it over my shoulder and went back to the bar, still had some hours to work. When i showed back up at the bar looking a bit out of it i was jumped by Jou. "Dude what happened you just disappeared for a bit there" I looked up at him and smiled the best i could.

"Nothing its nothing" I dropped the pack on the ground and went about filling orders. Jou kept an eye on me but we went back to work. The other new dancer showed. He was quite good, and had practically all of the girls drooling.

"Alright i am going home Jou, can you clean up?" He nodded. I picked up her pack and vaulted the bar.

"I don't know what's up but take care" I nodded and with a smiled was out the back door. A small whine caught my ears and i turned to see a golden lab, with whitish golden hair tied to a trash can. It pulled at the rope again and whimpered.

Cutting the rope i picked the puppy up. It licked my nose and resting its head on my shoulder went fast asleep. With a small irritated sigh I walked home, not wanting to wake the pooch. Upon arriving i set him loose in the huge house and walked up to my room, the dog followed.

Well i sat on the edge of my bed staring at my pillow where the puppy sat, eating a cracker i gave him. "I don't see why she runs... it never helps, though if she heard me say that i would have just been hit upside the head." I sighed. "Oh well i can start to search for her tomorrow, she wont leave with out her stuff, and she's stuck in her white outfit!" i suddenly realized it was going to be easy to find her, catching her though... was a different story.

Shedding my clothes I fell asleep with the puppy curled up against my chest, my dreams were plagued with the memory of Alya and how good of friends we used to be.

-----

Sighing i turned back towards the moon hovering above the building where yami had been. I cant believe I did that to him...I thought. Turning i swooped down to my rooftop and using my wings as a blanket fell asleep.

When i woke the next morning i stretched. "Ok he's going to come here-"

"First" Yami finished. I let out a choked gasp soared into the air.

"People are going to notice, at late night people blame it on being drunk... its day time now" He grinned happily at this. I growled at him

"Your too smug about that, and no matter if people see or not, i am still running, catch me if you can" I declared and in a flurry of white feathers i snatched my pack and disappeared. the race was on and i was not sure who was going to win.

I went to the highest place i knew, the top of Kaiba Corporation. I sat up there for a long time gazing at people mill about below me. A familiar bike screeched to a halt below me and fanning my wings i lifted off the roof and was again air born, heading for the hills off in the west.

time passes

It has been three days and i am floating over a lake. i had switched into a black tank top and grey pants, for the first time sense Kaiba corp. Lifting off the water i flew over to the cabin i had up here.

landing out side i went to open the door and had it open for me. I was flung inward and the door was shut and locked behind me. I turned around waiting to see some thug or what not, but there stood Yami with rope in his hands. Before I could react he had my hand feet and the base of my wings tied. "I figured you would go here but i had to let you get comfy first" He said and took a seat in one of my chairs.

I growled low in my throat and thrashed. he laughed, a little evilly. "I think you haven't eaten in a few days" I hissed. He nodded.

"Right o" he said with a smile. "When i saw you the first time, when you took off you heading towards here, i knew i had to actually stop you or you would run again, so when you went out to the lake earlier i snuck in here" He grinned as his accomplishment. "Now i will untie you if you promise to stay put" I growled but nodded.

After he untied me i sat on the floor nursing my wrists and feet. Looking around acting normal i noticed the open window and sighed. My wolven tail appeared and with a demonic grin i launched myself at Yami clawed hands on his shoulders.

"You still area an amateur at catching me" I hissed. He winced as i dug my nails into his shoulder. "You see, i don't give up till i have a reason too, or am too tired to keep going, and that only seems to happen when someone shoots me with a tranquilizer..." I growled. "Now i am going to run along now, if you follow, well you may not survive" Something suddenly was stabbed into my shoulder. "ow.."

"Who said i don't have tranquilizers on hand?" He asked as i flopped to the floor.

"You... i am so going to get you..." I hissed..

.
"Sure ya are" He grinned at me before i fell into the darkness that threatened to over take me.

When i woke up i was conveniently tied to my bed.. lovely. I hissed. Suddenly something jumped onto my stomach. "oof" I looked down to see two brown eyes looking at me. I blinked then realized it was a golden retriever pup... I smiled. "hi there.. want to chew threw the ropes?" I asked. he padded forward and licked my face. "thanks pooch that did me so well" I sighed, i couldn't even pet him.

hey??

/yeah? /

so its night... or close to it

/yeah, i was wondering what happened to you, i can interfere.../

that would be great, but not now.. i want to see if i can get out on my own first..

/sure, i will be waiting.. /

thanks I blew on the dogs face. he barked and licked my nose. yami came around the corner and picked up the dog. "Pervert" i called.

"What? oh the bed? sorry i couldn't think of anything else"! he said smiling.

"Then it still stands, pervert" He glared at me, i growled back. "So what are you planning anyway?" I asked.

"Going to try to convince you to stop running." He said simply and left. I growled and tried to free an arm or leg or something. When nothing worked i went back to the fact that it was almost or was night.

so which is it? night or almost night?

/almost night, how ya feeling?/

horrible, give me two hours then you can step in, though i don't know how.

/don't worry about it, just get some sleep alright?/

fine, take care. i sighed and growled.

"Growling at yourself?" Yami asked appearing around the corner. With a hiss my wings opened and created a mini whirlwind. "HEY!" I stopped, panting from the exertion. "Don't act up so much!" He growled.

Tears welled up in my eyes as i tried to calm down, and found that close to impossible. pulling my wings in i looked over at the window to my left. "I don't want to run" I said slightly above a whisper. Yami walked over and sat in the chair that the corner of the room.

"Then why are you?" he asked getting comfortable.

"Ever felt that if you kept moving, you would feel better?" He nodded. "That's why, i don't feel too good about killing someone, and worse that i have to keep running away from people who want me for a freak show... I just want to settle down stay in one place...have no one afraid of me or thinking i am a freak" I sighed. Tears streamed off my face and onto the pillow below. yami got up and walking over sat on the edge of the left side.

Placing his hand on my cheek he whipped the tears away with his thumb. "No one is going to take to just for a freak show" I just rose an eyebrow. "well they might want to.." He said with a smile.

------

Well after the discussion in the bedroom ((a/n: wow that can sound wrong)) i untied her and she was happy to make some food. I was trying to find some place that sold dog food so i could feed the pooch while she zipped in and out and around fixing dinner. With how much her expressions changed i swore she was talking to someone.

She zipped into the kitchen one last time and stayed. I gave a small sigh and called the pup over. I still had to name him. Hearing a sudden crash i jumped up just to turn into the kitchen and see the window broken and blood on the glass.

"Dammit" I swore and turning ran out the door. I looked up to see her flying off injured for blood was dripping but not caring.

-----

/WHAT?? your running again? /

shut up i cant shake the feeling that its not right

/oh that's it/

Suddenly all the light around me from the moon disappeared. With a thud i flopped to the ground. "You insignificant little... ooooo" I growled standing. Suddenly something hit my back. With a yelp i fell over. Yami growled and sitting on my back held my hands down. "Oh get off of me, i cant fly and you can run faster than me" I growled.

"Why cant you fly?" he asked.

"Cause Moonfire is mad at me for running, and at night she has full power over my powers." I hissed.

"Who's Moonfire?" He asked. I growled

"The Night angel, she watches over me sense i get my powers from the moon" I said. He released my arms and got up. Brushing myself off i turned to face him. he stared at me for a while then turning started to walk off, shaking his head. I blinked for a few moments.

wings please?

/no running. /

My white wings reappeared and I launched forward and landed in front of Yami. I growled. He rose an eyebrow then started around me. "no way" I darted to the side and pushed him over. "You chase me then just walk off once you tackle me?" I asked. Not waiting for an answer i captured his lips in a rough kiss. "Not acceptable" I grinned.

he shook his head and rolling over sat on my stomach. He laughed as my wings suddenly disappeared. "Oh, I'm sorry did that hurt?" He asked. I stuck out my tongue. Smirking he kissed my nose. I blinked then wrapping my arms around his waist lifted off the ground and set him on his feet. "Oh that's so unfair!" I shrugged. I twisted around to see if any dirt were on my wings and let out a disgusted groan.

"They are dirty!" I whined and spying the lake took a flying dive in.

The world hushed around me, just the sounds of me moving through the water. Landing on the bottom i crouched and started beating my wings, cleaning them and shooting me out of the water. The air hit me and sent a chill through me as the water rained down around me. With a happy sigh i fell back into the lake. The world hushed once again and i slowly sank to the bottom enjoying the peace and quiet.

A muffled splash alerted me and opening my eyes I saw Yami land on the bottom of the lake before shooting back up. Frowning i shot to the surface, gulping air. "Trying to suffocate yourself?" yami asked. I shook my head and unceremoniously flitted to the side and flopped onto the ground. Rolling onto my back i stared up and caught my breath.

"Bleh" I declared and pulling in my wings closed my eyes.

Once my breathing steadied i sat up to find Yami still in the water but the puppy had joined him. The stars played along the water, finally dark enough out. that was...interesting..

/the kiss or diving into the lake?/

both actually

/Join him and his pooch/

Alrighty. I said and opening my wings did a twirl before diving into the lake. Breaching the water I came face to face with a brown eyed pooch who let out a small yelp and splashed away. I said a quick sorry and using my wings and my tail as a propeller paddled to the other side of the lake. I watched in amusement as the dog tired out and stood on the edge of the lake and shook, sending sparkling droplets in a spray around him.

Stepping onto the shore i walked around the other side and picked up the pooch. he struggled at first but then allowed me to hold him. With a small wave to Yami i started back inside. "Hey! That's my dog!" He called

scrambling out of the water. Running up beside me he stopped and caught his breathe. I handed the dog over to him and walked in side, loose feathers falling around me.

time passes..blah blah balh

I cooked dinner for real this time. I made mac and cheese. I was too tired to care what i made and we were both to tired to eat much. I cut up some meat and cooked it for the dog even though Yami said he could just give him mac and cheese.

"No.. ah..Ah..AH CHOO... snivvle" I rubbed my nose on the back of my hand. "He needs meat.. i think" I said walking into my room.

I changed from my wet clothes, into grey baggy pants and the baggiest shirt i could find. Walking back out i caught Yami removing his shirt. I rose an eyebrow and walked past, throwing a towel at him. "How long are you going to hang around?" I asked, disappearing to grab the finished bowls of mac and cheese.

"Not long" He answered taking one bowl. I flopped onto the couch along side of him and tied up my hair. "I do have to get back to work.. by the way do you have a phone up here?" Still trying to tame my hair i pointed to his right where a phone sat. "Ok i am going to call a few people..."

He called two people while i ate my dinner. "Who'd ya call?" I asked once he started in on his dinner.

"Jou and Kaiba, by the way, he wants you to join Moonlight" I said and checked my reaction.

"Oh really?" I asked raising one eyebrow and setting the empty bowl on the floor. "What a surprise" I grumbled.

"Why?"

"Nothing, it was like a one time thing, i wouldn't mind...but jeez i dont like that guy" Yami laughed. "What?"

"No one does, besides its not him you have to worry about, its the bouncers and bartenders that take care of everybody" He said "Jou and I keep an eye on the crowd and anything outside, the bouncers are where we usually cant spy" He nodded.

"Oh really?" He nodded again "Interesting" I sighed. "I guess then i have to go home soon so i can start my new job... "I mumbled.

-----

We left early the next morning, with me riding my bike and her flying over head, i was quite amazed how fast she could go. We arrived at my house around noon and i let her stay in one of the extra five rooms. She thanked me and went out shopping, she had to get some new clothes for her job and normal clothes.

I went to the bakery. Jou greeted me at the door, "Hey! where ya been, i mean you told me, but what were you doing?"

"Out chasing some flying freak" I said smiling.

"What?"

"Member that one dancer at the bar?" he nodded "Those wings of hers are real, and we were playing a little game of hide and seek" Jou just looked at me funny.

"So those wings were real and you ended up chasing her around?"

"She declared it!" I said at my own defense. "Anyways Seto wants her working at Moonlight, so your going to see a lot more of her." Jou just gave me a sideways look and threw me my apron.

"Whatever, you have a job to do." I smirked and walked behind the counter.

-------

That night i was going to be dancing and i sighed at the clothes they wanted me to wear, and the song i was to sing. With a growl i slipped into the clothes and combed out my tail, after all it was appropiate thing to have for the song. I waited in the back wanting to get this done with as quick as possible.

Some people noticed how 'real' my tail and wings were and started spreading rumors. I sqwashed them with a threat to murder them, end of those rumors. Some people even steered clear of me. I was thankfull my mind was on over load and i needed to think this out.

I dont know what to do! Hes nice, hott, if i say so myself, and has a dog!! i thought.

/whitch has nothing to do with him. /

what i like dogs! i snapped. Someone motioned for me. Standing i walked onto the stage, waiting for the music to start. Once it did i let my voice and body do the work while my brain still thought. what am i supposed to do? I am so confused... hes a human and i, a fallen angel.. Moonfire!! Help!

--------

Ok I didn't really like this chapter cuse well.. it was actually the first and then I went and did the first two so it was a little weird.. but anyway...by the way.. that dog.. um disappears.. cuse I forgot I had written him in and I wrote this chapter then the first two.... Sooo that dog doesn't exsist from here on out (can you blame me? That's 6 chapters to go through and put a dog in.. no way..)
