HnH: Here's the eighth chapter... Thanks Oathkeepera, Numina-Namine, SK-Seeker, Ellie0223, Chukobher(chefbekah1304) and myxbeautifulxlove. Oh, if I'm forgetting to thank anyone, please tell me! But if you have not reviewed and only favorite or alerted me/ this story, it's likely that I already thanked you, but if not, please let me know!
Reno: -winks at female reviewers- Hey ladies...
Roxas: Numina-Namine is mine, though. :P
Naminé: Why? Because she has 'Namine' in her Penname?
Roxas:...Ummmm...-looks the other way so you can tell he's lying- Nooooo!
Reno: Well, I bet Naminé AND Numina-Namine both like me better, so there. :P
Roxas: Reno, you can't say that because you don't own her, and HnH doesn't own anything too! She doesn't own the thing I say before we switch to Nami's POV, and the thing that I sing at the end, the peeps at U-O do! SO HAH!
HnH: But, honestly, guys, you should read the first song Roxas sings. It relates to him a lot, and the rest you can just skip over, but it'd be nice if you read them. mimi from U-O has a lot of talent, and they're not mine. But aren't they pretty?
Angels in Flight: Towa no Shirube
Chapter 8: Looking Glass
(Naminé's POV)
"The two rules of Heaven that any angel must follow are 1. Not killing a mortal, and 2.You must never revive the dead." Roxas said, counting them off as he recited them.
"Why the second rule? Wouldn't that be a good thing? You're giving them a second chance of life!" I asked, wasn't that an angel's job? To make sure all humans on Earth live happily and live a long life?
"But you're denying them of Heaven." He replied. Oh. That made sense. After all, wasn't people being in Heaven a goal? If you were good, you would go to Heaven. To just have that privilege, the only thing people can really look forward as to 'life after death'...to have THAT taken away, that must be horrible. Now I felt kind of stupid, but I bet Seifer didn't know anymore about Heaven and Hell than I did.
"But why can't you go back into that Berserk Mode anymore? You said you didn't think you would be able to." I asked, and he just sighed.
"All machines have security systems, and I'm sure you installed one inside of me, too. You just don't remember even doing that. So, I think that a security program is blocking that virus. I'm technically a machine, since most of my functions run mechanically." He explained, then shrugged. "I don't really understand it myself, but I doubt I'll be able to ever do that again...I was out for a VERY long time afterwards, because I expended all of my energy and I did not even feel any of my wounds until after it wore off." The way he said made me think that he could just snap any moment now, but he knew what he was saying, or so I thought...
"So, Naminé, what do you think of him now? You hate him, right? Since you hated him in the past?" Seifer asked, almost sounding hopeful that I would 'hate' Roxas.
"I don't think...I don't think I ever really hated him from the start. I'm not too sure what I was feeling, or what the experience was like, but I can say that I would never believe Roxas could do something so terrible. I think I was in denial, and I didn't want to accept reality so I erased my memories." I said, but I can't really say for sure. "I obviously wanted to see him again even if I said I didn't - or else why would I let go of the things I was feeling right then? I think I wanted everyone to give him a second chance, at least, I know I would give him a second chance. It wasn't even his fault...who could blame him for that?"
"But he killed you!" Seifer shouted. "I would never do something such as that! You're more important to me than just killing you off like that!" I saw Roxas tense up but I just held his hand to sort of tell him not to fight Seifer. I didn't want to see anymore blood, anymore fighting. I wanted the violence to stop...
"But Roxas risked everything to revive me, and the people that I care about. You would never put yourself in danger intentionally. If you ask me, you're more heartless than he is, and he doesn't even have a heart! Why don't you use it instead of just gushing over your looks all the time?" I asked, and there was this threatening edge added onto my voice. Well, I WAS mad! Here Roxas was, not having a heart, but still feeling more than Seifer could...no, more than he decides to!
"You care about this heartless monster more than you care about me? He doesn't deserve any care or love - he's a cold machine! Everyone in the whole world would be lucky to even see me once in their entire life! That's how great I am, and you're telling me, you lowlife, that I should be like him!" If I could, I really would have liked to slap him across the face right now. But I couldn't...because you want to know why? He slapped me across the face! That's what really started it. Roxas shot up and Oblivion appeared in his hand.
"Don't you dare touch her!" He yelled, and the Hyperion appeared in Seifer's hands. I rubbed my cheek, I was just so furious! How...how dare Seifer! How DARE he say that! I stood up, and they both looked at me. I grabbed the Oblivion from Roxas, and he was about to protest, saying that I shouldn't wield such a dangerous weapon, but maybe I needed to teach Seifer a lesson or two. No, I NEEDED to teach him a lesson.
I didn't say anything, I just ran as fast as I could towards Seifer with the Oblivion readied at my side. I guess I could wield it after all. But when I felt the impact of the strike(I struck him square on the shoulder) I looked at the Oblivion and saw Roxas' hand over mine. "Thank you, Roxas..." I knew I couldn't have done any real damage by myself, and I felt grateful...even more grateful to me than I did before.
"Get down!" Roxas pushed me down to the floor. I thought I was going to have a heart-attack, because, well...I was thinking he wanted to...do 'it' if you know what I mean. But when I saw Seifer's Hyperion into Roxas' back, I knew he did that to protect me and not for other...otherwise perverted reasons. I swear, his eyes turned into a very dark, eerie blue as he practically pounced at Seifer, grabbing his neck and pushing him to a wall. The Oblivion that I had been handling returned to Roxas, but turned into a black wing after Seifer removed his Hyperion.
"I was hoping you'd do that, Roxas. Now you have nothing to defend yourself with." Roxas let go of Seifer and his eyes reverted back to the normal sky blue color. I was relieved. He wasn't going to go any berserk anytime soon.
"You really think so?" He said, holding out his hand. But...nothing happened. Roxas stared at his hand in disbelief. "Why isn't it coming to me?" He asked, and Seifer smirked.
"Forgot about your brother?" Roxas clenched his hands into fists. Seifer interrupted him before he could say anything, "Clever little me. I made sure your brother and my fiancée were...preoccupied. This all played out perfectly." I frowned. If Roxas didn't have a weapon, how would he fight? Then it hit me - The Oathkeeper!
I ran out as fast as I could. I didn't know the building well enough to know where I was going, and I didn't even know how to get back, but I needed to get the Oathkeeper to Roxas!
-(Roxas' POV)-
Naminé just ran out of the room for no explained reason. I can't blame her. She knew we were going to get into a fight, and I just knew she didn't want to see anymore violence...anymore blood. I knew Seifer was trying to provoke me, I knew he wanted me to massacre everyone, so he could have a good reason to kill me and he probably thought he would be the hero if he did. I can't wait until reality dawns on him.
"Your girl ran away from you, eh? Maybe Naminé woke up and realized you're a monster." Seifer said. I was really on the brink of my security programs overriding. He knew that, too! He wanted other people to be sacrificed just for his glory...
"I hope you get some help some day, Seifer. You need it badly." I didn't have anything to defend myself with. I couldn't even rely on my instincts, all I had was my sensors. I can tell people's emotions by looking into their eyes, and I could tell Seifer was being greedy and self-centered. No, not being...he was greedy and self-centered.
"Tough talk for someone who can't defend himself." He swung his gunblade at me again, and all I could was dodge. It's not like I was made of steel or anything. I can still bleed, things still invoke the feeling of pain...though I don't actually feel it, it's like I feel a faint twinge of it from remembrance. It's a hard thing to explain...
"Tough talk for someone who has to pick on unarmed people." I mimicked, my reaction time being faster than when he executed the move. Naturally, he was getting frustrated that I could dodge all of his attacks so easily.
"At least the girl I love won't run away from me." So, now Seifer was taunting me? I knew I should not pay attention to what he was saying, but it really did get to me, especially since Naminé left without a word. Wouldn't she have normally said, 'I'll be back, Roxas! Just hold on!' or something like that? "Oh, that's right - you can't love. She probably wants someone who can actually love her back, but I guess 'love' is something too irrational for your systems?" I knew better than to let his words get to me, but they did anyway. Everything flashed red as the message 'System Overdrive' appeared.The message kept flashing, and my vision was all red. I guess the virus had been slowly infecting parts of me and I didn't realize. Well, I knew, but I didn't deny it once Naminé came into my life again. I didn't want to lose her...you cannot imagine how badly I didn't want to let go of her again. So, two years since that incident, it was finally happening again. After all, I hadn't gotten security updates since then, so it was possible that it really was overriding my system.
I could not see anything, but it was like I had two 'me's. The robotic part of me - the part that can act on it's own, and my human me...the part that can know what emotions were like. Normally I can act on my own will, but sometimes the mechanical part of me will make decisions I have no control over. After all, irrationality is not an answer for robots. The virus was taking over, overriding my machinery's thoughts, so I had no control. It was a scary thing, knowing that something inside of you could make you do whatever it wanted, and you had no control of it's actions. They trapped me inside my own body...
I've been looking in the mirror for so long, that I've come to believe my soul is on the other side. But I know the difference between myself and my reflection. But sometimes I just can't help but to wonder, which of us do you love?
-(Naminé's POV)-
Okay, I managed to get out of the building. I now had no idea where I was, though. I had to get out to the street so I would be able to see the castle, it HAD to be at least somewhat taller than the other buildings, right? I sighed because I didn't even know my own capital city well enough to find which way the street was. I was so pathetic...
Well, it was daylight so I had to be careful. There had to be a lot of guards around, and people, too. How was I going to disguise myself? No...maybe I didn't need a disguise! They would surely take me to the castle, and to my parents, right? Then all I had to do was show myself! Walk around until someone finds me. That was the plan now. So I began to commence it. It actually took me a long time to find some form of civilization. Once I did, though, almost everyone recognized me and they dropped their things and rushed over to me and began to hug me and check me over and the whole bit.
Millions of questions were directed to me, but I couldn't even understand half of them because of so many questions. Also, some people spoke Al Bhed, a language often used in other countries. Since I had to study as Queen, I knew the language pretty well, but people say I speak it slowly. Finally a guard got over and made the crowd disperse. He turned to me, looked me over, then grabbed my arm and started to drag me to the castle. Once there, he made sure I got in and then just let me go.
I knew exactly where I needed to go, where I needed to get back to. I walked straight to the throne room and opened the door. I thought my parents would be there, but it's a good thing they weren't. I rushed over to the Oathkeeper's case and with all the might I had, brought down my fist on it. It didn't break. I was ashamed at my weakness.
"Come on! BREAK ALREADY!" I yelled, trying to break it once more. No dice. I looked around for what I could use to smash it open. Maybe I could go into the kitchen and take a pot and try to smash it with that? That was the only thing I could come up with, as there's no really dangerous weapons I can hurt myself with in the castle. They think I'm going to go suicide, but I would never take my own life.
Of course, that's what I thought then... but some events afterwards made me seriously reconsider.
-
I finally managed to get a pot from the kitchen without being detected. Of course, I had to wait for the chef to get out of the kitchen(which took some hours, I'm sure) before I actually got the thing. I hurried back to the throne room, slugging a giant, over-sized, monstrous black pot behind me. If you saw me, you probably would have thought I was insane, running with a giant pot over my shoulder. It would have been quite comical had I not such a serious look on my face.
When I arrived in the throne room, though, I saw Roxas(his black wing was outstretched) standing in front of the Oathkeeper's case. He must have finished his fighting with Seifer already, but I immediately knew this was not the case. My heart was aching for some reason I could not fight off. I felt like I had just been murdered in cold blood, and I didn't like the feeling. I didn't want Roxas to turn around...but he did.
And he was holding my dead sister. I screamed. I-I couldn't help it! I started to cry and shake...my God, the sight was so horrible...and all I was thinking was my poor, poor sister! She didn't deserve to die! I always had a close bond with her, and sometimes I just wished she would shut up sometimes, but I never wished for her death!
I had no idea of what to say. I sank to my knees, trembling. I knew something was wrong, but he didn't have eerie blue eyes anymore. They were glowing a mechanical, insane red. It was so terrifying, but it was more disturbing than anything else. He dropped my sister, stepping on her as he walked over to me.
"Death...don't you like it?" He asked, his voice...there was something wrong with his voice. He didn't sound kind and protective and warm...all those things that I loved in my Roxas, but this...this was utterly revolting. How could my parents even think of making him able to do such a thing? "I figured...that since I'm a weapon, I'm supposed to kill...and I know that I can't offer you anything besides death..."
I said nothing. I felt like a part of me was just destroyed...my heart ached, and you have no idea how badly. "No..." Was all I could manage. Roxas frowned.
"You're unhappy with me, my princess?" He asked, looking up at me with those tantalizing red eyes that, when he looked into my own...I just couldn't even look into them. "Then I must go out and kill more for you?" My head snapped toward him. Not the death of my people, who did nothing wrong! Someone must have committed one of the seven deadly sins or something, because I couldn't believe it. How could the Lord even allow something like this to happen to a person? Maybe if it was someone who was truly heartless...but Roxas? No, he was the person who least deserved this.
"NO!" I shouted, but it was too late, he was out the window. I couldn't even bring myself to stop him. I was just too upset over my twin sister's death. I wasn't even angry or vengeful, because it was my parent's fault in the first place. No, ultimately, if someone had to take the blame, it was the one who wouldn't, the Authority. Going over to Umiri, I made sure she was really dead. Her body was cold, so I knew. But I heard the brain works a few seconds after you die so I bent down and whispered, "I'm so sorry, Umiri...I never meant for this to happen..." I didn't blame Roxas for killing her. I truly didn't.
I didn't think I had the energy to go and stop him, I was too overcome with grief. I couldn't believe he killed her...he was doing it because he thought he would make me happy...it was sick in a way. It was so...disgusting that my parents could even do that. Maybe they didn't even remember they did it to him, but they did. I didn't want Roxas to be stuck like that forever, I needed to get him to revert, and I didn't know how since he didn't exactly tell me. So I ran out of the castle, leaving my sister behind. I couldn't do anymore for her, and I know she would want me to be pursue happiness after her death, so I wanted to go after my happy ending. The only person I can see myself happy with is Roxas. No one else. Of course, I didn't know at the time that I would have to wait for my happy ending, I would have to wait a very long time. In the end, I think it will be worth the wait.
So here I was, running out of the castle because I couldn't just jump out the window like Roxas could. I wasn't an angel like him. I was just a plain, normal Princess. He was the Government Weapon that was actually an Angel that goes berserk at certain points...I've read love stories, but most of them are very angsty. I knew I was stuck inside a sick and twisted one. Maybe...maybe someone would write a story about us one day, and about them, too, because they've had to put up with us. I stopped thinking about fairytales and storybook endings when I saw the people in the street. And my Lord...the children that were just lying there, the mothers that had been trying to protect their children and the fathers over them...I can't even begin to describe it. I got sick once, and then I got sick again when I saw Roxas.
He had a numerous amount of bullets in him, but his eyes were still that scary red. He wasn't wielding Oathkeeper, but his wing did disappear and he was wielding Oblivion. With a strike of the Oblivion, one guard was down. Then another and another...I knew he wasn't himself, and I knew it was up to me and me alone to stop him. So I ran up to him and looked at him, trying to see just a teeny bit of care...anything sane, in his eyes. Nothing.
"Roxas! Don't do this!" I still had to try, so I hugged him as I felt the Oblivion slice through me. Looking down I saw it went through my back. The pain was uncomprehendable. But I had to snap him out of this daze. I looked up at him, and I smiled when I saw his eyes slowly start to fade. "It's okay, Roxas...come back to me..."I whispered, and I saw his eyes turn back to that beautiful blue sky color. Immediately he took the keyblade out of me and dropped to the ground. I guess being berserk made him impervious to pain. Now the guards were lined up, ready to shoot him. I couldn't let that happen. He was finally back! I couldn't let him go now.
So before they even shot him, I ran in front of Roxas and stretched out my arms, trying to protect him. "You're going to have to kill me to get to him!" I shouted, and the guards hesitated. None of them could hit Roxas unless they went through me.
"Naminé...please don't..."I heard him say, but I knew he was in no condition to stop me. He tried to, though, but all he had the energy to do was to grab onto my ankle and try to push me down. But I stood my ground. I knew he couldn't stop me, and I myself could've just fell unconscious, but it was my turn to protect him.
"No, Roxas! It's not your fault! You shouldn't get punished for something you, ultimately, didn't do!" I said, then turned my attention to the guards. "I guess I'm just as guilty because the reason why he went berserk is because he wanted me! So it's my fault, too!" The guards looked at each other nervously. "You're not going to shoot me because I'm royalty?" I asked, but I knew as soon as I got out of range one of them would shoot so I didn't move to smack one like they deserved. Then again, I bet no one knew he was a weapon...
"Please, Princess, move. He committed an offense against you and the royal family - why would you want to protect this monster?" The guards tried to reason with me, but I wouldn't hear it. Instead I turned around, kneeled down, and wrapped my arms around Roxas so there was no way they could shoot him without getting me first.
"...Roxas isn't a monster...if anyone's the monster, it's you people for judging him without knowing why he did what he did and the circumstances behind it." Since Roxas' face was in my shoulder(I was sort of holding onto to him because I felt his body go limp, but I knew he was still awake) I felt him smile.
"Thank you..." He said, the Oblivion turning into a black wing as the wing stretched to cover us when the guards made the decision to shoot us. I felt the hot stinging pain of the bullet going into my back and shoulder. On top of the wound I had already, it was way too much for me to handle, so I went into the safety of darkness.
-(Roxas' POV)-
I thought Naminé was a fool for trying to protect me. She's not strong like I am, she's very fragile but she tries to deny it. She wants to believe she can return the favor of me protecting her, but she can't. She already loves me, and that's enough. "I failed...I'm sorry, Naminé..." I knew she couldn't hear me as I heard them shoot and felt the bullets pierce my wing. I can actually feel things in my wing, it's not like your hair where if you just cut it off, you don't feel a thing. No wonder why most angels have gigantic wings. Right now, I was so tired and in the condition I was in, I was lucky I was even conscious. But I had to get up, and the only thing that made me invincible was going berserk. My other programs didn't heal me or anything like that. I had activate it again. Not on the level it was when I killed her sister, but the on the level it was two years ago. Believe it or not, I was more safe back then. It's kind of like the virus somehow evolved...
I knew emotions triggered all of the programs. My Valor Form was activated by me feeling anger, my Wisdom Form was activated by me feeling threatened, the Master Form is activated when I am hurt badly, and the Final Form is when I need to unconditionally protect someone. I think...I think Naminé triggers me going berserk. The first time it was because I felt love, and the second time it was because I felt betrayed by her. This time...it was because she needed my protection, but it was more than needing to unconditionally protect her. I needed to get vengeance on the people who intentionally shot her, too. Everything in my line of vision tinted blue, signaling I was still in control. I removed my wing from us, and I slung Naminé over my shoulder.
I wasn't dangerous at all, I had complete control over my actions, but I knew I was in some type of berserk mode because all the pain and tire I had been feeling completely washed away. I felt invincible, like some type of hero who could do anything. The first thing I needed to do was get out of this capital for a while. I knew Pops couldn't hide her, and I bet everyone will be looking for me and try to arrest me for the crime I 'committed'. The safest thing to do was get out of Elle Ciel. Maybe news wouldn't spread that quickly. "Move and I'll leave Tsugare." I said, hoping not to kill anymore. Honestly, I didn't like to take lives. But as a weapon, I was designed not to feel that way. So I'm sure back when I was remotely human, I probably loved life and cared about others, too. Though I wanted to kill these people who shot her, I knew I should leave them alone to compensate for the other people I have killed.
"Not with the Crown Princess!" Shouted a guard. I didn't have time for this. They were barricading the exit until either the gate closed, or more reinforcements came. I didn't want to fight, so I just ran and literally plowed through them. I didn't even feel any pain at all when I saw the bullets shoot through me.
"You're not getting her. Don't worry, she'll come back someday. Maybe when things quiet down." I said, turning around and looking at their shocked faces before I ran out. The farther away I could get, the better. I stopped running once I saw that no one was following and began to walk. I had heard some songs back in my childhood, and I remembered them all perfectly. So, I started to sing. Sometimes I would just sing to myself, I really liked to do it. Everyone says I have such a beautiful voice, too. I didn't know how long I would remain like this, I just hoped I would get a few towns away from Elle Ciel. News doesn't travel fast.
"Asked to draw a self-portrait
I sit and think
Truly, what am I in the inside?
What are the puzzle pieces that make me?
Looking outside to others, I find no help
Staring at my blank canvas
Closing my eyes, I see a terrible picture
Lying on the floor in a puddle of blood
A fading mechanic me
Ripping my humanity away in the attempt to achieve emotion
Creaking the gears of my eyes trying to produce tears
Lost in my dream, my trance, I try and try again
Reaching for a heart that is not in existence
Staring in the distance as if there was a loved one there
All emotions of replication, lost to me a long time ago
Opening my mouth to speak prayers
Finding only that God has abandoned me
A child I am, lost to the thought of love
Drawing on the virtues of life I compose myself in reality
Only to be drawn back into a nightmare
Kneeling on a cliff later in my life before God
Asking for serenity in the lake of infinity
Denying me entrance, what have I done to deserve this?
Looking in my past I cannot find the memories of the mechanic me
Forgotten memories holding me back
Staring into the skies searching for a way
I stay on the cliff
Waiting for a reply for eternity." I heard Naminé murmur something, but she was nowhere near awake, I knew. The only thing I remembered from my mother was one song she had sung to me and my brother before she died. I think she wanted us, me especially, to know this. So, I began to recite it; of course I hesitated now and then because I had to really think of what the words were.
"Lost in the deep forest
My only guidance is my heart
Lost in turmoilReaching for my salvation
Realizing i have perished
Salvation unobtainable
I cry
Staring into nothingness
Please save me
Whispers floating away
Never to be heard again
Seeing the flicker of the stars i find hope
Starting my journey again
I think i have found it
My salvation
Once again i find myself tricked
Lost again and unable to find my way
Calling to God to please help me
In the darkness i walk for a thousand miles
My soul set ablaze my determination stronger than ever
I float away on heavenly wings
Spreading out reaching till the end of eternity
I finally begin to fly
Feeling the pain of humanity
My wings start to fade
Glowing with a brightness indescribable
I catch a glimpse at paradise
What could possibly save me now?
My prayers answered then stricken down
Finally standing upon the earth having undergone a complete transformation
I must suffer the fate of humans
An angel lost in a sea of sorrow
Prayers that become red doves
Relinquishing all their sorrow unto me
I accept my fate and open my heart
Catching on fire my skin flaking away
But not moving showing strong resolve
Ashes that are me float into the sky
Ascending to heaven piece by piece
Once again serving a purpose Feeling happiness
Drifting into unconsciousness
All of humanity witnessing this
Singing with pure voices their hope emanates
Looking out over the earth
Absorbing a beautiful view which I will never see again
Even in heaven i weep
Knowing the sorrow still on earth
Deep in my heart lies an eternal prayer
For its salvation one day
Forever burning on fire
Standing at the gates of heaven
Staring upon the beautiful earth
Knowing my prayer
Seeing its fate played out a thousand times in my head
Feeling eternal sorrow and upset
Trapped in paradise with visions of hell
I am a lost angel." I made it through two towns before I started to feel the first twinge of pain shooting up my leg when I took a step. I saw a clock tower in the far distance, but I knew I wouldn't make it by walking. I looked at my wing. 'By walking...' I thought, and wondered if I could fly there with just one wing. I knew from experience that I could glide and maintain the distance if I flew off of a tower, but I couldn't actually go any higher.
My wing wasn't strong enough to lift me up, let alone me and Naminé. There was no way I could walk back to the capital and just ask for Oathkeeper. I wonder...I held out my hand, and Kingdom Key appeared. I knew for a fact that my twin was no longer protecting Umiri, because I had killed her. I felt bad about killing off Naminé's sister, but I remembered what the Authority had also told me, besides from I would die in the most torturous way possible...
'If you live...if you succeed in destroying...they'll come after you.' But I doubt that. There's no way the Authority could get Lucifer's minions to come up and attack me. After all, why would he? Those...things...don't even have minds and can't even plan. They'll just go attacking everyone that's alive.It was times like these that I was glad I was a weapon. I can't really be destroyed, because I someone can always repair me even if I lose my head. They can always transfer my data to something else, and
I'll still live on.
Anyway, I knew that I could transform this keyblade into an angel's wing. I think it's impossible for it to not transform into an angel wing. I know Oblivion and Oathkeeper can be used by any angel, or any demon, as long as they know that they can transform into wings. But a weapon for the pure-hearted was practically a tool for Heaven, so it had to be some kind of silver-angel's wing. It probably needed some holy power, though...
I took out a hair on my head and placed it on the Kingdom Key. Sure enough, it started to glow and silver feathers began to fall as it disappeared. Once it fully disappeared, the metallic-silver feathers that had fallen glowed and they vanished, too. I looked to my left, and sure enough, was a metallic silver wing. I stretched it out, and flapped them. I hadn't tried to fly before on my own, but I needed to learn soon because now I really felt the effects.It only took a try to send me and Naminé up in the air. Of course,by the time I actually flew over the town, I was really tired and couldn't really even keep my eyes open. "Not...now..." I made sure Naminé would land ontop of me and wouldn't get hurt as we both crashed into the ground of the town. The last thing I heard before I went unconscious were the surprised gasps of people.
"Wow, mommy, look! An angel and a pretty lady fell from Heaven!"
"Is this a sign from Heaven? It couldn't be!" I also felt some people touch and poke and pluck the feathers of my wings. I fought to keep awake now, but I was having a hard time and I could already hear the slurred voices of the people belonging to the village I crashed in, which was a sure sign I was really about to fall
"But these wings are real! The feathers are, too...I feel so peaceful. I don't think these two are demons..."
