Rai finally reopened his eyes, rested and calm now. He moved from againist the statue and down on the small, few stairs infront of it. He looked back at the statue and gave it a slight glare. Use the power of Oaka for good. Well what did that mean? What even is the Oaka?
"How am I supposed to use the power of "Oaka" when I don't even know what it is" he said with a sigh.
...Close Your Eyes and Focus...
Rai jumped back as he heard the voice. He stood and prepaired hismelf, in his tired state, for a fight. His now winter blue eyes looked around. He walked forward a little, looking around. Now he really though he was begining to lose it. He began to think it had all just been a dream, until...
...Close Your Eyes and Focus!...
The voice roared at him as a unnatural wind blew him up and back into the statue. He yelled out in a slight cry of pain as he slid down the statue. Nope, not dremaing, thatw as for sure. He sat down on the platforum infront of the statue. It was a eight foot by eight foot square. He crossed his legs and closed his eyes.
Guess I should give it a try...

Rai felt nothing at first as he just sat there. Sighing lightly, he tried again. Shifting, he felt a unusual warmth flow from his body. It was an unnatural feeling, never feeling something like this before. He suddenly felt warmer as he bent his head back as heat flushed his face.
Focussing on the heat, he felt a warm wind blow through the church. the candles blew wildly as he continued to focus. Finally, he opened his eyes as a godlen light errupted from what seemed like a small tear in the air above his head. he felt himself pulse from the light.
"Apella!"
Suddenly the light went from warm to a soothing feeling. He found his body slowly mending and it's aches fading. He felt his energy return to him as the light stopped. He smiled a she jumped up, he already began to like this new gift. He wodnered what else he could do a she jumped up form infrotn of the church and walked out.

Sometimes, if you're really quiet in a church, you can hear Heaven, or the angels in the Heaven singing. But really, its not true. Ai sat at a bench, up front, somewhere nearby the tall booming organs, and the tall beautiful stain glass window. Sometimes, Ai wonders why people believe in God so? Do people really think God will save them from there problems? If Ai was truly a messanger; a child of god, then wouldn't he have saved her little village in Heaven? All lies to her.
So calm.. I can see why people come here to pray.. because its so qiuet that you can almost wash away your problems Ai thought as she knelt down on a little cusion to pray on, occasionally she'll come to the Church just to pray, sometimes the priestess who live here mistake her as one of there own because of Ai's strong angelic appearence. But, when Ai's outside, you can barely see the strange aura around her, but inside the church, you can tell she has a true pure soul.
She slowly placed her hands in front of her delicate face, positioning them in a prayer-like way, so that she can empty her troubles. Swiftly, she closed her lovely lavender eyes and bowed her head slightly, her long lavender hair glowing from the massive light coming through the stain glass window. During her time of prayer; she was thinking about her people and how they were. Sometimes, she would give anything to go back to Heaven where she belongs; even give up her dream of becoming a singer.
Oh mother, I don't know, I feel like a bud in a bed of already bloomed roses. Sometimes, people give me strange looks, and sometimes people ask me if I will be there guardian angel. I don't know.. she thought as she opened her eyes again, and straightened her body; her hands moving back to her slender sides. Her eyes glanced up at the stain glass of Jesus placing a hand over his heart as a bunch of angels gathered around him; giving him wine and bread. Ai sighed as she stood up and brushed off some dust from her white kimono. She always where's a white kimono, its a symbol of Heaven and respect for the church.

Cigertte smoke blew up softly in the evening wind swirling,dancing,prancing upon the breeze. As that cigertte was brought up to rosy red lips,the colro of split blood,as if painted on them. She took a long deep drag from the death stick,leaning her back against the large grand entrance to the campus Chruch. She wore a Victoria style dress,with a large back of the dress,but very short int he front. Frills consiting most of the front that it only reached her midtheigh.The shirt had a corest style,the sleeves were msotly long straps.
Ellas hair was let down to flow freely like always,some of the red trendils slding down the front like swirls of red paint. She ignored the fact she was here,she ignored hte fact she was weaker when near a church. She ignored the fact she had been sitting around in the hideout she nad Joy had lived in for the past few days,smoking,barly eating. She ignored the fact that she hadn't rejoyced the fact Joy was taken into a deep dark void,she ignroed the fact that isntead looked up int he libary how she could get Joy out,nto that she did want,she ignored that too. Her eyes were ligthly hooded wiht her long lashes,as she ran things over in her mind,whys he was here. She lit a new cigertte,letting the odl one fall and be smushed by her boot. She had such a longer list,but these were one of the top ones.
As the daugther of the devil himself leaned against a church entrance,ligthing cig after cig,drag after drag. How long had she been there??Time had stopped,time was going by quickly.She had come here looking for someone,anyone,that was needed to get someone that had made her ignore alot of facts.
You hate her. You hate her with a passion. No one else has been able to make you as angry as she does. For some reason, she just really touches a nerve. So many things to hate…
You hate her because she’s clumsy. You hate her because she eats more food than you do. You hate her because she plays around all the damn time. You hate her because she’s loud. You hate her because she whines. You hate her because she doesn’t whine when she should. You hate her because she sings constantly. You hate her because when she does, you think about your mother. You hate her because she laughs, and it makes you feel funny inside. You hate her because she cries, and it hurts you worse than the sword’s edge. You hate her because she makes you hot, but you can’t touch her. You hate her because she makes you stronger. You hate her because she’s your weakness. You hate her because you worry about her constantly. You hate her because even when you left her, you didn’t really leave her. You hate her because you hurt every time you think of her, and you don’t really know why. You hate her because this feeling won’t go away. You hate her because you’re afraid this feeling may not actually be hate.
s**t.
Two eyes shot open with this,gasping wildly,taking in too much smoke she started coughing harshly,leaning against the entrance more covering her mouth with one hand. Disgusted,mortified,surprised,and then more disgusted. Her eyes were wide,like a deer in the headlight,as a few red strands fell across her pale face.
Impossible,I don't want that idiot,who always was annoying,I used her,always had with not concern. I have no attathcment to her..she causes to much toruble,she can't die in that void either..so Im fine..I wont die..but..I can't... And before she knew it Ella had slipped into the Church,ignored the pain in her head, ignored the big stares from young low ranked pirests and pritestess,ignored everyhting,all the feelings,like she had all these centuries.
She knew who she was heading for,as she strode quickly down down the pews,her eys on that violet haired girl that Joy had talked about before,an angel of course with that aura. She was going to do what she wanted.
Resting a hand on her shoulder,her black tail tilted up Ai's head upwards so Ella could get a look at her face. So sickingly pure looking,so clean,it made her want to defile her and dirty her up with her hands. Ella smirked,her dark red eyes bearing right into the angel,piercing with that look,her eyes were wild and needy though,filled with such differnet emotions you could drown in it,as her grip on Ai's shoudler tightened. "Bring.Her.Back."

Ai kept staring at the stain glass for a while now, maybe too long, probably because it was the closest thing she has to Heaven, it was this church. Thats why she was staying here too long, it was the only sanctuary she has that is close to something as magnificent as Heaven itself. Really.. I don't belong in Heaven anymore.. I'm never treated with respect there.. but I'm never really treated with respect here.. because.. I'm so different Ai thought as her eyes willed up with tears as she stared down at her hands. The hands she use to slay devils with, even humans who were psycho. Sometimes, she thinks she'll become a monster someday.
Really.. who's heard of an angel with poor health and never born with wings.. ? No one.. Thats when her thoughts were interupted with a hand on her shoulder, it kind of made her jump and almost squeel; but she stopped herself so none of the people inside the church would look at her like she has two heads. Thats when Ai felt something wierd crawling up her back to her shoulders... something.. furry.. ? It was a black tail! This is too freaky! Am I getting kidnapped again..?! Why does this always happen to me! she thought as she had a scared look on her face. Thats when the black tail slowly tilted her head upwords.
Ai's eyes widened, a devil in the church?! The women had long silky red hair, it was like a river of blood, and her eyes were the same color as her hair. She had such a strong presence of darkness; it almost made Ai quiver with fear. But, this devil cat was in a church, so her power must of dropped dramatically. Still.. Ai fears devils.. she gets all tramatized with them around, that now a days, she stays still. She no longers slays them, that was long ago. Ai felt the red eyes bearing through her enchanting lavender ones, it felt like Hell was staring right into her face.
"H-Hi" she barely whispered, though, it was mixed with fear. A small uneasy smile grew on Ai's delicate lips as she pulled some more confidence to talk to the devil kitty. "Nice Kitty-" though, she was stopped eruptedly when the grip of the women's hand tightened on Ai's shoulder, that she winced slightly, it was kind of painful. Thats when the devil cat women spoke, she said: 'Bring Her Back.'
EH?
That was the first thing Ai thought, she has NO clue what this women wanted. All Ai knew was what this women was looking for was a 'she' which means another girl. Swiflty, Ai picked up the tail from her neck with two fingers, like it was the most disgusting thing she's ever seen. Then she looked up at the women innocently.
"Who are you loo-" thats when Ai stopped herself, she instantly remembered who this was. It was Ella! Ai has seen Ella at her first slumber party, but unfortunatly, Ella left early or something. It is still unknown today why Ella left.
"Oh. You want Joy. Well.. um.. I don't know where she is.. if you tell me I can help" she said as she started to move Ella's hand from her shoulders.

Pitch looked up at the massive form of the church before him… and laughed. He had heard about this particular edifice and decided to stroll away from the playground, not to mention that it was habit. The clerical needs of society always amused him in a way that nothing else could. Wherever he happened to travel, no matter what he was doing or how much of a hurry he was in, Pitch always stopped by the local religious obsession to see what kind of rubbish the humans were so hopefully pouring their life and energy into. He chuckled again, remembering the outrage at cults developing throughout the world and that the only way these lost souls would be acceptable is if they accepted an “approved” religion, such as Christianity or Judaism, depending on the community. What they failed to realize and the aspect Pitch found so amusing was that all those religions are are large cults themselves. Shaking his head, he headed up the steps, to the front entrance. There was obviously some care taken of it, not to mention pride in it, so it was worth scoping out. He pushed the slightly ajar door and casually strolled inside, taking note of the brief sharp crackling to his left. He did not turn, as he knew exactly what it was: upon the lobe of his left ear was tattooed a black cross, though most people would have to look twice, and many mistook it for a sword. It was an inverted Gothic cross, but not overly extravagant, with a witching that caused it to crackle whenever a “divine” or “holy” presence was near. An observer would see small white bolts of electricity coursing through the inked skin for just over a second. He speculated upon the internal décor and what he might fancy. Upon entering, however, what caught his attention was not stained glass or candles, or even a depressed Jesus tacked to a cross, but a conversation. Between two girls. With at least one making a move for the other. “Well, that’s different.” Pitch said quietly, to himself, for the second time that day. Who knows where this one could lead. And, more importantly, who cares? Pitch did not. He walked straight past their little shindig, to explore the insides of the church. If either wanted to bother him, they could follow.

Rai walked back to the church. He paced towards it slowly grumbling about something as he enetered. He pushed against the closed wooden doors and walked through. Closing the doors behind him he sighed. Moving to a small coat rack near the entrance and palced his coat on it. A she started to moved again he now felt three other presences in the room.
Rai sighed as he moved on through the church. He starred a she looked at two girls. He stepped back as he saw them. One had an extreamly powerful holy aura and the other's aura confussed him. He studied them for a moment before moving on down the walk way. He moved around them, not wanting to interrupt anything they were talking about.
As he continued walking he walked passed the othe rperson eh ahd felt, another boy. He quietly made it down to the other end of the church. He looked up at the winged female statue int he center of the far back. Rai shuffled his feet to it before he knelt down infront of it.
He wore black boots on his feet. Over his legs sat a pair of black UFO pants. On top he wore a white hoodie with two black wing images on his back. His blonde and red hair covere dhis face as he knelt infrotn of it. palcing his hands in the form of a prayer he close dhis eyes and began to speak.

Another soul entered the church, attracting Pitch's attention from the not so interesting femme dispute. It was a male, but he passed too quickly for Pitch to catch most of his appearance. Watching the back of the newcomer's form, Pitch chuckled lightly as it performed a practiced ritual. "Prayer." He spoke aloud, and in that one word was both contempt and amusement. "I wonder," again aloud, "if he finds his results as futile as the ritual..." Pitch didn't particularly care whether or not this person heard his words, he liked to ask himself questions while others could overhear, occasionally they would have decent input... or pushed an altercation.

Sukiyomi wondered into the church, with an expressionless face. Though she was an android, she moved and just like a normal human being, until you spoke to her that's when you'll know the difference. She studied the giant stained glass window for a little, the sensors in her eyes scanned everything that she could see, even the group of people infront of it. She kept her distance, but still she was curious about why they were here, who they were and what they were doing. As an android she didn't understand what religion was or why people think it was a big deal, but she couldn't care less. She didn't understand what a cult was either for that matter, but then again she didn't quite understand humans, or whatever they were, and their life styles.

Ellas eyes hardened even more,were all angels this stupid and slow??If she didn't need her she proubly pull every last strand of long silky purple hair,then finally ripe off her head. She had that sweet inncoent look in ehr eyes,the same as Joys.She bit her lip,that stupid girl was making so muc trouble for her.
Her eyes scanned the few people in the church,the boys who passed them with little care,pathetic beings weren't they??Praying to a being they''ve never seen,heard,or even knew in the vaguest way. Why waste even a small momment of their short lives in this wretched building Ella would never know. But this wasn't the place to do what they were about to do,too many preening eyes.
Feeling her being brushed off,she wipped her own hand on her dress,turning her back,her hair blew back from the momment like leaving a trail of freshly spilt blood. Ellas face grimmaced,knowing full well the angel would follow for her,either her natural need to help,or curoisty,she hated having to associating herslef with such a being,it hurt mentally to be close to such a thing,and it didn't help she was in a church,her headahce was growing bigger and bigger by the minute.
But she was used to being followed by now,after years of being with Joy. You hate her because you’re afraid this feeling may not actually be hate. Hers hands gripped into fists,feeling her nails dig intill her flesh. ""Joy...tck." Walking up the stairs to the church head quaters,she took a last at the statue of the hanging jesus. Joy had fougth her with Kurai, she had been wathcing from the shadows at the time. Looking down at the purple haired angel,it was Ai wasn't it?Ai-y something as Joy had called her. Her eyes brows pushed forward,as she frowned deeply. "Well..hurry up baka.

Lori and christy walked into the church for the first time, and as usual, lori walked in the door first. Lori's footsteps were very quiet as she walked into the church. Her eyes were as wide as they usualy are when she sees some kind of chocolate or candy as she looked arround the inside area of the church. "Wow this place is soooo freakin' awsome, Don't you think so Aya?!" Lori said with her small, childish voice.
You think everything is cool, even a rock you seem to find amazing... Oh i'm so sick of you girl! Christy thought with annoyance. She was still mad at her little sister for running away to the beach without permission, and didn't even want to hear lori's voice. But since christy 'grounded' lori, staying by her at all times being the punishmet, she wasn't able to complain about it.
Lori walked slowly threw the church, gazing at a few people that were arround or close by as she did. She then noticed Sukiyomi alone and desided to approche her. "'Ello! My name's Lorilie, and that girl over there all alone is my older sister Crystal!" lorilie said pointing to her sister.
Christy noticed Lorilie talking to someone and ran towards her. "Lori~! Dont bother her!" christy said looking down at her sister, then looking back up at Sukiyomi. "I'm sorry if my sister was bothering you, ma'am" she mumbled quietly to the girl, at least she looked like one to her, she didn't notice at all she was an android.
Lori looked at christy oddly, as if she were a ghost or some form of monster. "Hey, you're talking to someone!" lori pointed out. She was so amazed that her sister was talking to someone other than herself and their middle sister, Sarah.
Christy looked back at her sister with an annoyed expretion on her face. No realy? What an Idiot you are! she thought, giving lori and angry look. "Well someone has to appologize and I know you wouldn't!" she whispered in her sisters ear harshly, and looked back up at Sukiyomi with a blank and embaraced look.

It wasn't until more people came into the church that made Ai kind of.. feel wierd. And when they stared over at her and Ella, it made her somewhat scared, she doesn't know why -- maybe nervous was more of the word? But how can she be nervous when this was only a few people, but she wants to be a singer so she has to get use to all these people glancing at her. Also, Ai couldn't help but feel Ella's hatred towards her, was it because Ai is an angel? All naive and innocent like most angels? Thats kind of discrimination towards her, but then again, Feena is like Ella, so Ai is use to it.
Thats when Ella turned around and started to make her way up the stairs, where is she going? Doesn't she know thats the living quarters?! But- Oh! I get it! She doesn't want other people to get hurt! Ohh! So maybe there is some kindness underneath that ruble of cruelity! thought Ai as she smiled, but it was more like a smile for no reason at all. If you're going to be friends with Ai, you're going to have to get use to her aloof attitude.
"Ooo, I never knew this place got prettier!" she whispered to herself as she turned around from up the stairs, she never really noticed that the church was more than what it seems.
"Well.. Hurry up baka" Ai smiled uneasily, she doesn't like being called 'stupid' or 'baka' but it seems everyone is calling her that nowadays. Ai nodded and continued making her way up the stairs, her feet lightly making 'click' noises as it echoed throughout the qiuet church. But what was confusing Ai was why does Ella need help to bring Joy back, aren't they connected someway?

Sukiyomi tilted her head a little at the girl's who were just talking to her, "There is no need to apologize, you have done nothing wrong." She said, sounding emotionless. She came up to the altar and studied it for a while. "What is the purpose of this building?" she turned to Lori, with a cold looking face, it was rare to see her smile, but she wasn't trying to seem cold on purpose. She was programmed to be that way, for if she had any emotions, she wouldn't be able to kill. The scientists who created her couldn't have that, so they did not equip her with feelings. "I wish to know more about your kind, mind you, i am not human." She told them.

Lori looked arround the church, then back at Sukiyomi. She was very interested in her ever since she said that she wasn't human. "This church? It's for religon... people come here to worship the gods, or come here for protection from evil things.... I think....." she said and looked back up at christy, wondering if she was correct.
"Yeah, lori's right. It's a place of worship...." Christy said, sounding a bit uneasy. She's not human? But she looks like one... an android? Her voice sounds so much different from most... "I'm half human, the other half is demon...." she said after her pause to think. She took a step back and looked down at the floor for a moment, then lifted her head to glance at the church walls once more, and the people arround her.
