Takata walked down the dusty road, feeling the gravel crunch beneath her bare scared feet. She furiously wiped the tears from her cheeks, but they just continued to come. A barn rested nearby. It would supply her a place to sleep and hopefully, some ordinary clothing to help her blend in. Her white, sheer dress doesn't exactly scream, 'I did NOT fall from the heavens!' Takata hurried off up the hill and into the barn. The farm animals made noises, but Takata silenced them with a warm, comforting smile. She glanced in the doorways of stalls and found one empty with a change of clothes and a wool blanket. Takata slipped off the dress and changed into the plaid button up and male jeans that hung low on her waist. She searched for a string and looped it through the beltloops to secure the jeans tightly around her slender form.
"There, that should do." Takata said to herself, then layed in the hay and wrapped the blanket around her shoulders. Sleep soon took her into it's arms and before she dreamt of a white nothingness, footsteps came into the barn, but Takata was too tired to even keep her eyes open.

Revanna, who had been following Takata for quite a while, finally found her in a barn, sleeping. Looking down upon the young, slender form, the Cii'va sat down in front of her and crossed her legs, just looking at her.

She remembered how the angels had accused her of a terrible act, but she herself thought it wasn't justified to rip away her wings and send her to earth. Not enough had been investigated. Angels may not have been allowed to track the girl in front of her, but Cii'va weren't bound by those laws. They were tasked with hunting the demons, and franky she was doing exactly that just by following Takata.

Revanna decided it was best to let her sleep, and wait for her to wake up. She herself was dressed simple. Gray robes and a gray hood that covered her hair. She did however pull it back so that her face wasn't covered in shadows. She had no weaponry summoned at the moment.

Somewhere in her sleep, Takata had smelt a new scent. A scent of another being. She tried her best to remain calm as she slowly opened her eyes and tugged the blanket closer to herself. Takata sat up slowly, bracing herself with her arms. She could only make out the figure, because she was still dazed by her sleep. Slowly, the sleep piled away from her eyes and she realized what sat it front of her. A companion.
"Who are you?" She asked, fear striking her helplessly. As much as she wanted the company, she couldn't help but fear her.

Revanna smiled and pulled the hood back from her face, revealing long silvery hair, pointed ears and shining blue eyes. "My name is Revanna D'Islar, one of the Cii'va. If you know your history well, you'll know that we were created by your kind. I am here to help."

(Hey, I played as Takata on my friends account so Im going to be using my character Scarlett as Takata from now on. They're basically the same kind of Race. So you're still talking to a human angel, she's just called Scarlett now (: )
Scarlett tried her best to stay calm as different scenarios played through her mind. What if she hurts me? What if she's tricking me? Its obvious she is one of those kind that we created, but I'm no longer one of the angels, so why would she want to help someone like me? What if the other angels just sent her to torture me even further? As if my wings weren't enough. Scarlett has never been one to trust too easily. She's always tried her hardest to be open, but couldn't bring herself to open up that doorway. Now more than ever ...
"I'm Scarlett." She forced herself to say, then lingered for a moment before blurting out her next words, "How do I know you're not tricking me?"

Revanna smiled. "You can probably never know. But my race is created into never being able to lie to the angels." she explained. Revanna just hoped Scarlett knew that. She put a hand to her heart and said: "I, Revanna D'Islar of the Cii'va, created by the angels, hereby swear that I am here to aid you. I will not harm you, or consciously thwart your cause." she let her hand rest in her lap again. "Believe me now?"

Scarlett took a deep breath, glancing around the stable, "I will do my best." Revanna seemed believable, but Scarlett's knowledge ran low on how Cii'vas aid human angels. She tried her best to surge up some courage and trust. After all, Scarlett knows she's alone and knows that she very well needs some guidance on Earth.
Rising to her feet, she took in Revanna's appearance. Simple, but not exactly what humans see on an everyday basis. The Cii'va is beautiful—all god's creatures are, but Revanna held more beauty than most. Scarlett felt awe, but also envy. Angels are beautiful, but some more than most. Scarlett's firey red hair and radiant green eyes weren't common, but then again they weren't entirely the picture of "beauty."
"How will you help me?" She asked softly, trying not to sound so demanding.

"However you want me to." Revanna replied. You pleaded to the angels that it was demons who did what you were accused for. It is a Cii'va's holy duty to hunt down demons at large. If a demon manages to trick even the high council, then I can't ignore it." she smiled. "Don't worry, they don't know up there. As long as an angel isn't directly involved in our missions, Cii'va command isn't obligated to notify every detail of the operation. And since you're an outcast at this moment, notifying the angels isn't nessecary either."

She slowly nodded, taking in Revanna's answer, "Even if I wasn't an outcast, I couldn't inform them. When I was an angel, they didn't take me seriously. Called me a child. I want to find the demon along with you. If that's alright."
The demon had taken away everything Scarlett knew and if there's a way she can repay that, she will. She just hopes that Revanna will understand the reason she needs revenge.

"That's what I'm here for!" Revanna answered her with a smile. "Don't worry about it - you'll get your wings back." she said. "One way or another. And the Demon will be vanquished. It'd be about time."

"Okay, where do we go from here?" Scarlet asked, she felt her gashes on her back begin to throb from pain, but still wanted to go on. The demon lurks on earth, praying on poor humans. Scarlett knew that. Before her wings had been taken, she sat on the edges of cloud and watched the humans. It was her hobby. One day, she saw the demon and she guess, he saw her too. It's first thoughts must've been that she would tell on it. It made it where no one would listen to her.

"We find the nearest village." she replied. "Maybe there's reports of sightins there."

Scarlett nodded, then grabbed her silk dress and wound it up. She wanted to keep it as a token. "How far is it? Will we need to get food and water?"

Revanna thought for a moment. "The village itself is two days on foot, but there is an inn not too far away from here, if I'm not mistaken." She looked outside for a moment. "We should be able to get there by nightfall. We need to be careful though, whereas you can easily hide your appearance, Cii'va aren't blessed with such talents. All I can do is hide in cloak and hood."

Scarlett nodded, scratching the back of her neck, "We'll be okay. No one will bother us if we just ac like we're ordinary." Scarlett began walking slowly out of the barn and saw that the sun was already creeping over the treelines. This is going to be a long two days journey.

Revanna followed her outside and took the lead from there. She had her gray cloak wrapped around herself again, and a rather large hood was covering her silvery hair and pointed ears. Every now and again she would say something to Scarlett, talking to her about this and that but never really a fixed subject. A few hours later, they reached the inn. Revanna watched it from a distance with a disappointed look on her face

"It seems we're in bad luck, the tavern's full. Any ideas?" She wasn't keen on being discovered.

"Maybe there's a empty cottage or shack that we could stay in." Scarlett replied, looking throughout the area. A few children played nearby. She smiled at their laughter. Finally she spotted something that seemed deserted, "What about there?"

Revanna nodded confirmingly. "Looks perfect." she replied, and headed for it, making sure Scarlett remained close. Some of the children stopped their game to look at the - to them - suspiciously cloaked lady, but they quickly resumed their games when called upon by their friends.
