Leon POV
I jump from the window, seeing the angel's teal hair but not caring. I decide that Al might be some help in getting my head on right,
nothing seamed to make any sense at all. How could such a rare heart like Rin's fall for a murderer and monster? I kill angels, demons, and
humans, that's why I'm an out cast. I stop on the edge of Al's territory, and take a deep breath, "Okay Leon, don't let him know you got emotions
forming again. In our job, a heart means death, and we are death's hand." Nodding to myself, I walk into what's left of the town. Al had
construction workers starting to fix the walls already, but he was preparing them for war. I notice the town grain stores have more then normal,
and all the towns people were learning to fight. "Leon? How are you?" Al spots me, or did he smell me? I must still smell like a dog. We shake
hands, "How is your sister?" I shrug, fighting Kaito last I knew but with those two who knows, so I shrug. "Leon, did you know you had an older sister, besides
Lola." I nod, Lola was not really older but she wanted to say she was, so all the power to her. "Yeah it was Gumi I think, but I've never talked to her." Al nods
sadly, she must have died. No one in my family did not just role over, we live till we have no choice but die. "Who killed her, Al?" He looks at me, rather surprised,
and looked around. "Well... He is the king. Your sister was an angel and he is a demon but..." I turn, the king who knighted me, the king I served and trusted,
yeah he was a demon but... She was MY sister for gods sake! I look over my shoulder, "Al, tell the others where I'm going. You know where they are right?" He
nods, good now I can go. I hope Rin can forgive me for not saying bye in person.
Without waiting to change form completely, looking far more demonic then I thought possible, I charge to the castle. Al's words echo in my head,
"Your sister was an angel..." That can't be, an angel would die if it tried to take a mate, let alone have kids! On the other hand it could explain a lot. Something
white flashes at the edge of my vision, so I stop. Nothing. Nothing but trees and feathers, so I grab one. At first the feather smokes as if burned, it's snow white
color tainted by the smoke, and then it starts glowing. I toss the feather, waiting for it to change or explode or something along those lines, but the glow stops as
soon as I let go, oh well. I sigh, so much for an epic show down on the way, maybe I have read to many hero stories. I walk up to the gate, disappointed to find
no guards or anything on duty, no demons or angels, not even a dog! King Piko must be over confident, or just not know I'm coming to kill him yet.
Piko POV
I watch as the angel dies in my hands, she was pretty and an old friend of mine. I pull my sword free of her stomach, poor girl never saw it coming.
She looks up at me with her bright green eyes fading away, I look away, she still can't hate me. "P... Piko, I knew this was going to happen. I'm willing to go if it
means you don't have to." Damn it! She knew I was ordered to kill her and still came! "I'm sorry Gumi," I feel the tears painfully forming, cause everyone
knows how much we demon lords cry. "But I'm not letting you go yet." I had already started healing the wound, now the smoke was evident. "But...! You'll be
killed." I smirk and shake my head, I knew how to get around the rules this time. "Nope, you see I was told to kill the angel Gumi. I did that, and now I'm
saving the mortal Gumi." There was a slim chance of it working but I have to at lest try. I send my most trusted man to run and tell my lord of the success, I
know he will leave out the fact I'm pushing my luck with the laws. If there is even one small, insignificant, detail I miss, then I'm going to die vary horribly.
There is no "If, and, or but" in this kind of work. So, here I am, gamboling my life in exchange for hers. I just have to hope Leon let's me explain the details...
Everything is going well when I receive word from the scouts, "Your highness! It looks like some kind of dog man is charging it's way here!
What are your orders?" I think for a moment, fighting would only result in the death of my men, the men I'll need soon enough, running results in my death
before it's all over. No, the only thing I can do is have everyone evacuate. "Clear out the palace! I want every single living thing out of here before that thing
gets here!" I take and prepare for the worst, he must be in a rage. Maybe he knows that he's will never belong in any world. It's tragic he can't see past his own
nose, even though it is watched by everyone. Damn kid, no mater what he decides to do he's facing a war. I watch as he walks up, suspiciously glaring at
everything, and opens the gate. "Well, I must finish what I started I guess..." I watch the beast take a more human shape and start waling in the castile.
