Fallen Angel

Chapter 2; Nightmare

"Ai, go and find Amou," said a voice. Ai walked up in her long white dress. The wings coming from her back where large and her long blond hair was up in a pony tail.

"Gabriel, you're not coming?" she asked.

"I'm afraid not," he said.

"Why?"

"I am to stay here and watch you from afar to make sure you are not hurt," he said. "There are many hurtful things in that world and many will be after you."

"You are sure of this?"

"I am," he said. "Now go." She bowed and flew out to Earth, but as she flew over the clouds she saw a dark figure fly by her and disappear in the clouds.

"Who-?" she said. The figure came up behind her and-!

"Ah!" she shouted. Ai opened her eyes and looked around the room. "It was just a dream. . or. . .was it a memory. . .?"

"Are you okay?" Amou asked as he walked into the room."I heard you scream."

"I-I'm find," she said. "It as just a nightmare." Amou looked at her clothes and smiled.

"You could use some new clothes," Amou said. "Until we go out to get you some you can borrow some of my clothes. We won't be able to go out today because of all the rain." Ai nodded and got up from the coach. She looked at the wrapping on her wounds and frowned. She followed Amou down the hall and into his room. He opened his closet and looked for some clothes she could borrow for the day.

"Your father is very kind," Ai said.

"He isn't my father," Amou said. Ai looked at Amou with a puzzled look. "He found me in the streets a few years ago. I have amnesia, just like you. I was wondering the streets, but he took me in. He is a nice, smart man. Here we are." Amou handed Ai a pair of jeans, and a long sleeve, white, button down shirt. He also handed her a white undershirt.

"Thank you," she said.

"You can change in the restroom," Amou said. "It's down the hall and to the left." She walked out of his room to go change. Amou walked out of his room to start breakfast as the rain started to pour down harder.

Ai walked out of the restroom. The jeans fit and the shirt fit her body just right. She had her hair down and she held her dress in her arms.

"Good morning."

"Hn?" she turned to see Tomonori standing behind her. "Good morning."

"Is Amou up already?" he asked. "Explains where you got the clothes."

"He is making breakfast, I suppose," she said. Tomonori lightly smiled and put his hand on Ai's shoulder.

"Come on," he said. He led the way and she followed him into the kitchen. Amou was making pancakes (my personal favorite!). Tomonori as down at the table and gestured for Ai to take a seat. She sat across from Tomonori, giving Amou the middle seat. Amou sat down after placing the pancakes on the table.

"So, did you both sleep well?" Tomonori asked, trying to start up a conversation. Amou nodded and Ai ignored the question. "Ai?" She looked up at him and nodded.

"Ai had a nightmare which probably interrupted her rest," Amou said with a sigh. Ai didn't make eye contact with Tomonori who was now looking at her. She knew that at one point Tomonori would ask her what her nightmare was about.

"Oh, really?" Tomonori said. "If you want to get a little more sleep you may go rest if you like, Ai. You do look a little worn out."

"I'm fine, really," she said. She was surprised that Tomonori didn't ask her what her nightmare was about, but she was also relieved. What would he have said if she told him? He might have thought that she was insane.

"By the way," Amou said. "You may take a shower if you wish. I know that you just got dressed, but a shower would do you some good." She nodded and they continued to eat their breakfast. It was mainly quiet as they ate, but what was there to say? Tomonori and Amou could not ask Ai what her old home, life, and family were like when she couldn't remember.

Ai got into the shower and washed her hair. She stood there for a moment to let the shampoo come out of her hair when she looked down at her hands. She had to remove the bandages. When the water hit her wounds it stung a little, but the pain went away after a minute or so. Fragments of her nightmare kept coming into her head and disappeared from her thoughts. She still wondered if it was just a nightmare or if it was a memory, but no matter how had she tried she couldn't come to a conclusion. She closed her eyes for a moment and then opened them again to see blood on her hands.

"What the-?" she said. Her cuts had opened again and were starting to bleed. She turned the water off, grabbed her towel, wrapped it around her, and looked at her hands again. "Just great. . ." The wounds on her legs started to bleed as well. Amou knocked on the door.

"Ai? Are you decent?" he asked. "I need to get something."

"Um. . ." she said. "Y-Yes."

"Are you okay?" he asked as he started to opened the door. "Oh my!" He saw blood on her hands and blood started to run through the cracks in-between the tiles on the floor.

"What is going on?" Tomonori asked. "Goodness! Amou get her a robe and I'll get a cloth and more bandages."

"Okay," Amou said. Tomonori ran into the kitchen and Amou ran to the spare closet for a robe. Ai stood there for a moment and Amou came back into the restroom. "I won't look. Just get into the robe." She first took a paper towel, wiped off her hands, and got the robe on a quickly as she could before a lot of blood got on it.

"It's okay now," she said. He opened his eyes and she frowned. "I'm sorry about all this trouble I am causing."

"It is no trouble at all," Amou said. Tomonori came into the restroom with a warm cloth and bandages. "Should we just wrap her wounds here?"

"Well, we should," Tomonori said. "I really don't want blood to get on the carpet." Amou nodded and Ai sat on the edge of the tub as Tomonori wrapped her forearm and Amou wrapped her shins.

"I guess your wounds were still open when you got into the shower," Amou said. "You should wait a while before you take another shower so this doesn't happen again."

"I am really sorry," she said.

"Don't be," Tomonori said. "It is no problem." Once they were done she got back into her clothes (amou's clothes really, but you get the idea) and walked back into the livingroom. She say on the coach and held her legs close to her chest.

"This is very puzzling," she said. "I have no idea what that nightmare meant or if I will be able to figure out who I am and where I belong. . .but. . .who was that man? Gabriel was his name? He was talking to me. . . ."

"Here." Amou came up behind Ai and handed her a glass of water. She took it and held it in her hands.

"Thanks," she said. He sat down next to her and smiled.

"So, what was your nightmare about?" he asked. She expected Tomonori to ask that question, but it seems like Amou asked it. "I didn't want to ask you when Tomonori was around."

"Why?" she asked.

"Because," Amou said. "I could see it in your eyes that you didn't want to talk about it in front of him. So, what was it about?"

"That's the thing," she said. "I'm not sure of what it meant or if it meant anything at all. It could have been a memory, but I am not curtain. This is very confusing."

"I bet it is," Amou said. "I cannot remember anything either and my dreams and nightmares seem like they have nothing to do with me or my past. Well, I have to go do. . .something. So you stay here and I will see you later."

"Bye. . .?" she asked. He left the room and walked down the hallway. "Something? I wonder what that something is. . . .oh, well. (Yawn) it's none of my concern." She laid down after placing her glass on the table. She closed her eyes and fell asleep, hoping that she would have a dream. A dream that would give her a idea on who she was.

It. . .is. . .done! Yay! The next chapter is when Tomonori takes Amou and Ai out to get her some new clothes and they run into Kaname and Mana! Please review!
