"..Can you walk like that?" Wisteria stopped, looking down at his hurt leg. "More importantly, can you fight well?"

"I'll be fine, I can use my bow for the time being." He replied, collecting the used arrows. "As long as I can fight from a distance, it'll be fine."

“If it bothers you more, then tell me. I have medical knowledge for more helpful than First Aid Kit.”

"I'll keep that in mind, thank you." Axl smiled and started to make his way towards the mountain, quietly humming along to various songs. "It might be interesting... Eternal life will allow me to keep my career flowing for years, perhaps one day I'll have a career like Axl Rose himself?"

“Being immortal doesn’t really sound nice to me,” she said with a shrug.

"As long as my music makes people happy, eternal life sounds wonderful to me. Rock n' roll's gonna live on, I hope."

"'To each his own,'" she quoted, continuing on.

Axl simply smiled at her, adjusting his cap as they continued towards the mountain.

Wisteria twirled her knife in one hand absentmindedly. She passed it from finger to finger, holding the handle only once in a while to restart the pattern she used. It was a way of keeping her blade ready to throw or defend should they be attacked suddenly, and keeping herself somewhat entertained.

"I should probably get started recording my tribute album when I return home..." Axl mumbled to himself, "I wonder how much music'll change in the coming centuries? Maybe a hundred years down the road, Guns N' Roses will simply be a memory, if that."

The angel ended up ignoring his pointless babbling. Couldn't he separate his mission from his personal life? She had no room to talk, though. Wisteria didn't even have a personal life. All she did was train, go on missions, attend occasional classes, and exercise.

Axl fell silent a short while later, having a peaceful look on his face as they continued approaching their destination.

(You forget about this for a few minutes? )

The angel found a little comfort in the silence that befell them. She could listen for sounds that indicated they were being followed, or if the animals stopped being active, which said something dangerous was close by -mainly demons, in her mind-.

(Yeah, lmao.)

As they continued approaching the mountain, lightning of various colors can be seen striking around the peak of the mountain, creating a beautiful, yet terrifying scene to behold.

Wisteria stared at it in awe, her indifferent mask faltering more so than before. She had hardly seen a thunder storm as the Academy grounds' weather was permanently sunny, speckled with fluffy clouds, and cool. She couldn't think of words to express how she felt about the scene.

"Let's hope this little excursion won't leave us Thunderstruck." Axl joked, referencing his other biggest influence. "I wonder if we'll feel some High Voltage thrills as we climb up?"

The angel's expression changed back into its blank state as her protective mask was put back in place. She rolled her eyes and walked on.

"...Not even a chuckle?" The rocker sighed, attempting to start ascending the mountain.

She climbed at a decent pace, her training coming to use. It wasn't nearly as difficult as sparring with Crocter.

Axl kept up as much as he could, trying to ignore the pain in his leg. "At least the mountain's fairly smooth..."
