AN: Thanks again everyone for the great reviews! ;-;/) You make this poor writer feel rich. Again, sorry for the lack of updates. And, in case you are wondering, Angels are always angels. They were never mortal. :D So, I hope I helped clear things up. If you're wondering how the angels know of how the human world works, remember that angels can see us, so they get an idea of what goes on. xD Welp, not wanting to waste your precious time, we'll have Kisa do the Disclaimer. -motions to Kisa-

Tainted Angel Feathers
Chapter 16
"Mm.. Strawberry." Tohru closed her eyes to lick the substance off her lips. Kyo dabbed a napkin on her chin, "You're getting it all over your face, Tohru." Tohru blushed in embarrasment and shyly smiled, "Do you like it Kyo?" Kyo nodded and balled the napkin, setting it aside on the bench. Tohru swung her legs lazily under the wooden seats.
"I love ice cream." Tohru smiled brightly and licked her strawberry dessert. She savored the tast of the tingly, sweet, chilled cream that whipped into a fluffy cloud, with specks of dark red embedded in the pastel pink orb. It gracefully balanced on a waffer cone hat had speared melting goodness on the sides. She smiled at Kyo, "Thanks for paying to share, Kyo. You're so sweet." Kyo blushed with a crooked grin, "Jeez, stop thanking me already. I get the point." Kyo was enjoying the same flavor ice cream as Tohru, peeking at her once in a while.
"And the weather is gorgeous. I'm so glad I get to enjoy it with you instead of in that cramped office." Tohru gazed dreamily around the park. Everywhere was filled with bright, vagrent colors. The grass was neatly trimmed and watered, giving it a healthy shine. Buttercups and daisys were brilliantly spread across the park in patches. Other colored flowers and plants lined the fenches and trees. Purples, blues, reds, and oranges seemed to be dabbed like watercolors on a canvas. Even the children, who were busily occupying themselves on the playground swings and opstical courses were enjoying the gift of a new day. The sound of the chained swings sang with the seesaws and merry-go-rounds. The innocent laughter and squeals of little girls and boys having fun together on such a warm day were clear as day. Tohru and Kyo would be dead wrong if they told differently.
Kyo finished his ice cream and gathered the sticky napkins, "I'll be back in a second, Tohru." Tohru nodded, knowing what he meant as he strolled toward the garbage, dumping the waste inside before heading to the park restrooms. Tohru glanced over to the children playing, seeing a young girl sitting by herself on the swings, looking her way. Good naturedly, Tohru smiled brightly in return. The girl, appearing to be in elementery school, smiled shyly back with a faint blush.
Before Tohru knew it, the yougn girl was shyly walking up to her. Feet away, the girl nervously look at her shoes and her clasped hands behind her back. Her golden blong hair framed her delicate face as she glanced at Tohru with innocent, orange eyes. Tohru couldn't help but squeel in delight at her adorable appearence. The girl shifted her weight from one leg to another nervously. "Um.. Tohru.. Tohru Honda?"
Tohru's eyes widened in surprise. She didn't recognize the girl. She would if she had. With those cute features and unique coloring.. But, how did the girl know her name? Tohru nodded in confusion, "Y-Yes.. But, how..?" The girl smiled brightly, seeming to relax. "It is you. I'm Kisa."
"Kisa?" Tohru smiled, "Hello Kisa. Um." She nervously looked around. Should she just blurt out the question of how she knew her name? The girl seemed so shy, she was afraid she would scare her. Kisa was very adorable, and she would hate to hurt her feelings. Kisa saw her nervousness and eased Tohru's mind, "I'm one of the angels sent to help you." Tohru blinked, "Eh? You are?"
By then, Kyo had returned. He blinked at the little girl, "Eh? ..Kisa?"
Kisa jumped and looked at him. She smiled bashfully, "Hi, Kyo." Kyo frowned, "WHy are you here? There's no more danger." Kisa stiffened and Tohru rested her hand on Kisa's shoulder, "It's okay, Kisa. Kyo is just curious as to why you're here.." Tohru stood up and Kyo nodded. "This isn't the best place to.. talk about this. Let's head home." Kisa nodded nervously, obviously shy. Tohru squealed and hugged Kiswa, "Ooh! You're so cute!" As Kyo stared in surprise, Kisa blinked, as shocked as him. She relaxed and smiled, "Hm.."
Withought a moment to spare, the three headed back home, soaked in their own different thoughts on Kisa's arrival..
"Shigure?"
Shigure looke dup from his cup of tea to the figure across from him. They appeared to be just freinds enjoying lunch at a local cafe. Truely, that was only a disquise for their true nature.
"Hm?"
"Tohru.. she's a very strong girl. I admire that. Her mother was the same way. But, are you positive she needs to know.. who I really am.. so soon?"
Shigure nodded and sipped his tea again, "The girl is very wise, and I'm sure knowing your true form won't be very overwhelming as she would have been before she met Kyo. But, we will give it time untill we are positive Kyo did the job."
"Kyo.. About him. Did he really destroy Akito?"
"From what I've gathered, he has. Haru, Hiro and Kisa are checking it out. I've sent Yuki after them too. They should be meeting about now."
The figure laughed softly, in good nature, "Ah. I wonder.. Will Kyo remember me?"
Shigure watched the "angel" he was talking to, "..Yes. Yes, he will remember you.. But, from what I can tell, he won't be as regretful with you as he would have been before he met Tohru."
With a nod, Shigure and his freind took a sip of tea.
"That girl..
..seems to be very important, especially to you..-" Before Shigure could finish, he let out a sneeze. A soft laugh came from across from him, "Bless you. Looks like someone is talking about you, Shigure. Shigure sighed and sniffed, "Ah, yes it seems. Thank you for the blessinf Well, it must be someone thinking thoughts about me!" His companion sweatdropped as he sneezed again.
Kyo impatiently tapped his foot with his arms across his chest as he stood against the wall. He continued this as Tohru came back from the kitchen with snacks. Kisa patted Kyoko, who was in her lap as she sipped some juice. Kyo growled, "Sooo.. Why are you here?"
Kisa looked up after swallowing her sip of juice, "We're here to make sure everyhting is okay on Earth."
"We?" Tohru blinked in confusion. Kyo got the hint, "Who else is with you?"
"Haru, Hiro, Shigure and Yuki."
"Yuki's here?" Tohru smiled, but it faded, "Why didn't they come here with you?"
"Hiro and Haru ..They're still at the park.. investigating the battle scene." Kyo, who seemed more annoyed than usual, clenched his fist, "Shigure's here?" Kisa jumped and nodded. Tohru looked at Kyo, "..Do you.. know him?" Kyo growled, "He's really annoying and acts immature. but, he knows alot about Akito and why he was after you. He's sneaky. Damn Shigure."
Shigure: -sneeze-
Tohru smiled, "He can't be that bad, but if he knows what Akito was after me, then he's here to tell us, right?" Kisa looked at Tohru, "I'm not sure what Shigure is here for.. He might have his own reasons." Kyo rolled his eyes, "Keh, Probably."
Shigure: -sneezes again-
Tohru looked at Kyo in worry, "Do you tihnk Akito is still alive?" Kyo watched her expression and his expression changed from annoyed to concern. he was at her side in seconds and rested his hands on her shoulders, "No way! You saw I didn't even leave a smudge of him at the park! He's gone for good!" Kyo wrapped his arms around Tohru in comfort. Kisa watched and smiled. She thought it was very sweet.
That night ,after work, Kisa slept in Tohru's room. Kisa snuggled against Tohru in her sleep, cooeing softly as she drifted around in her dreamland. She was already attached to Tohru and TOhru was attached to her; however, Tohru was still awake, wondering about the mysterious Hiro, Haru and Shigure. She was excited to meet them, and hoped to meet them soon. It was wonderful that she was making so many freinds..
Speaking of which, she still needed to call Uo. She hadn't talked to her freind in a while. She called and told her about her new place, and still fel bad that she had to keep it secret. Kyo had told her it was a safty procaution. She was really hoping to see her freind son, since the Akito thing was over.. but since they were still making sure, she would have to wait longer. SHe sighed, depressed. She hadn't seen Amaya today at work, either. Well, she would worry about that later.. She needed rest so she could check on them tomarrow with a clear mind! With that, Tohru tried to sleep...
On the other hand, Kyo was still sulking in his own room. Now only was the arrival of the others a sore in his side, but Tohru's birthday was tomarrow and he had planned on taking her out to dinner or watch a movie. He wasn't a "romantic" kind of guy. He thought all that stuff was mushy and steriotypical.. but he'd gladly take Tohru to the movies and act mushy-gushy if it meant it make her happy... well, the movie part anyway.
'Maybe.. I can go out while she's at work toamrrow and buy party supplie..and when I bring her home we could have a big party or something.. Kisa could come..' He'd have to think about Yuki and Shigure attending.. but if Tohru wanted to meet them, he had no choice to bring Shigure, Hira and Haru as well... if he found them. And what about that other girl? Uo? Tohru asked him about Uo visiting multiple times, and it killed him when he said no. That was for safety anyway. Kyo was sure Uo's number was around the house somewhere, and he could.. possible invite her. Yeah. With a smirk, Kyo planned the next day before falling asleep.
"Haru, I'm tired! We've been searching for hours and we haven't found anything leading to the idea that Akito is still alive. Can we get Kisa and go home already?" Haru glared at the youner angel's attitude. Hiro, the offender, was sitting atop the slides watching him with a bored expression. They had been searching the park up and down, asking people if they saw any unusual sightings and even asking people who could see the park from their homes or works. So far, nothing was turned up. Haru wiped his forehead and ignored the troubling kid, going back to searching the grass for specks of evidence.
A middle aged woman stopped to watch Haru. She eyed him suspiciously. Along side her was a little boy who looked to be a 7th grader. The boy was staring at Haru too in amusement as Haru searched the grass in silence. The mother turned to her son,
"See what happends when you smoke crack? I hope this teaches you the harmful effects of cocain, sweetheart." The boy nodded and continued staring. Haru's eye twitched at their staring. Could he not get a moment's peace around here? Hiro was snickering from his place on the slide. The woman and boy walked away, shaking their heads and going on about the effects of drugs and ignorant teens. "Remember, hun, once you're cooked on crack, you're hooked for life." Haru growled and muttered curses, resisting to go Black. Hiro applauded his patience.
"My, my. I'm surprised you didn't rip their heads off or anything after that. Such a noble angel you are. You're an insperation to all other ignorant angels who can't hold in their annoyance to mortals and end up getting back at them somehow. Though I have to agree with them, you shouldn't do drugs. Not even angels can help you get off nicotine. But, you're clean and still act like a druggie." Hiro sarcasticly gave him a thumbs up, "Good for you!"
"HIRO, SHUT UP BEFORE I END UP STUFFING THAT TIRE SWING DOWN YOUR THROAT!"
AN: That's right, kids. Crack is bad. No sexy or adorable angels will rescue you when you do it, either. Welcome to reality, kids. Don't think this story hasn't taught you anything.
