Brooke sat in the drivers seat for a couple minutes just looking up at the mansion trying to decide her next move, she didn't want to seem like she needed them but in truth she did need this place until the world fell into place. Finally she opened the door but left her bags in the car as the cool night air called to her. It wasn't raining too hard nor was the night too cold she decided as she made her mind up to take a small walk around the grounds that she had yet to explore. Her feet took her away from the lit path to a side section by the back of the grounds where a garden stood. Over the years it had been neglected and had overgrown and gone wild, perhaps that is why it seemed to call to Brooke. Being outside in the fresh air away from the organized way of modern life seemed to give Brooke a buzz like energy. She took a seat on the bench ignoring if she was making her white gown dirty or not, the freshness of the night seemed to talk to her and was enough company for her.
All of a sudden the quiet peace seemed to stop, although there were no other noises Brooke tilted her head up, as though she sensed something was different. She felt her arms tingle as she turned her head to one side slowly and saw Piotr standing at the entrance to the garden. His mouth was ajar as he looked at the quiet figure sitting there in the untamed garden; he was speechless for what her saw ahead of him. There on the bench was Brooke only bright wings sat on her back from where the images always were on her back. The wings were a light shade of pink with a tint of silver giving her a heavenly appearance. She looked so perfect in that garden as she stood and walked towards him slowly, her wings were not disappearing as they had the first night he had met her. She stopped a couple yards in front of him and tilted her head slightly. With her gown on she looked just like an angel to him, innocent and wonderful for him as a small smile played in the corners of her mouth.
"Good evening Piotr, did you miss me much?" she asked her smile growing bigger.
He had no chance to say anything as Scott rounded the corner in a jog and interrupted the brief welcome between the two. He stopped as Piotr had but was not greeted with silver pink wings, but Piotr also took note as they changed color deepening into a red. She had obviously not taken note to Scott's arrival as her face showed a slight disturbance.
"Sorry Brooke but there's someone on the phone for you." He told her.
She nodded and the wings gave way and disappeared to wherever they hid when they were not visible. She followed Scott into the mansion straight into the professors' office where she could have some privacy on the phone. She picked it up and said a careful hello. On the other end she heard someone breathing, than a strange new familiar voice reply.
