Welcome to Gaia! ::

Joy closed her eyes and smirked devishly((I think I made a pun..)). "Yes..the irony..but Im far from perfect Miss.Angel.." She looked at the feather and titled her head,some strands of green hair falling across her face. A purple feather,how strange,though it seemed to make sense. She took it,looking down at her,her lime green eyes,the sparkle had been in them,though long died out,seemed to be alive,so happy it would strike someone. "She looked up at her smiling,the feather clutched in one clawed hand.

"Thank you!!Now please.." A small orb of light formed in her hand,it floated towards Sakura then stopped infront of her face.

When she looekd at it,then looked back at Joy,she would be gone. Though a voice inside her head,whispering in her ear,booming around the room,said.

My contract of friendship..I'll be watching over from you..if trouble comes..

It seemed like curousity killed the cat, but not literally, Sakura Ai seemed like she was attracted to the dance floor. Even though it was empty with nothingness. Peeking through the corner, Sakura Ai made her way down the marble paved steps like she was on a red carpet with the all-eyes-on-me look. She simply hummed to her self as she placed her hands behind her back, a pleasent look in her sweet lavender eyes, it was her serentiy effect. She was so king and giving, but she merely would refuse an gift or an offer, she wasn't the greedy type of person after all. Her long lavender hair was tied in a loose ponytail, black lace holding them like she was on a lifeline or on her death bed. She was wearing a maids dress and fishnets, she just came back from cleaning one of the rich elders house nearby Ria High, her shoes were snapped off before she walked onto the crystal clear floor, so she walked around with her fishnet instead.

Once on the middle of the floor, she spreaded out her arms like she was a ballerina and started to prance around like an ice skater, with grace and enchantment. Her every move was from the bottom of her heart as she continued humming that haunting but sweet tune. Dancing like a true angel she use to be. The one thing about being alone was that all of your five senses were in effect and the cold bitterness soon swipes away like a powerful rift tide taking a mere child from a parent.

((I'm borrowing Sakura Ai, since she needs to train for the tournament))

A pure angel walked into the empty dance hall, it was completely empty. A light smile was plastered on her face, she needed the space and besides it not like anyone goes here anymore. She walked down the stairs to the dance floor and looked outside the large windows, there she saw the whole campus. She then pulled the curtains down so that her angelic form or any light wouldn't be seen. She needs utter silence and darkness. She slowly backed away from the closed windows and slowly revealed her wings. But they were bigger than before!! The tips were colored in purple as the rest was white.

First thing..i need to use targets...

She took out some black angelic feathers and threw them towards all four walls, the feather were like blades and sharp, each and every one were stuck on the wall. Almost like that Sword in the Stone, thats how stuck they were in. For Sakura Ai to complete this mission, she has to use her angelic orbs to purify the black feathers. She was wearing her priestess gown, but it was her first time wearing it again since her first trip to the church. Her soft lavender eyes looked around at the targets making sure they were all stuck.

Good

She thought as she took out a piece of white cloth from her sash and wrapped it around her eyes. She's already mastered her angelic orbs but she wanted to see if she could hit every target without seeing them. After she finished wrapping her cloth around her lavender eyes she placed both of her hands over her heart, but leaving space in between and started chanting.

"Open your heart
Come to the grace of Heaven's eternal fantasy
Come to the grace of harlem's harmony"

Those words echoed throughout the room as a light come from over her heart, it was white light, the same light Marrisa taught her when she just learning how to use her angelic abilities. The white light grew bigger and bigger and soon it split in two, multiplying themselves. After it split in two, it started to split some more, more, and more. Until it completely circled around her body. With that, she swiftly and gracefully moved her hands out forward and there the orbs shot out in bullets.

But, only a few hit the tarets. Why is that? Was her light powers decreasing, was she becoming less and less as an angel? What could lead her to this. She ripped the piece of cloth off of her face as she felt pain thorbbing in her heart. It wasn't a heartattack, Angel's could only get sick. No diseases. She painfully placed her hand over her heart as she started crying lightly. It was hurting so much, what was it.

Thats when she remembered, Joy gave her a friendship orb but she was a devil, and devil magic mixing with an angelic magic is not good. Not good at all. What should she do? Her tears started to plop down on the dance floor as she stood up, only wobbling around.

"It..hurts.." she needed to find Joy. But finding a devil is very hard. Where would she be? She started to head towards the door, her hands over her heart in a pain sticken way. Leaving the remaining black feathers stuck in the walls. She also made a contract with Joy. How could she be so stupid! Usually, when you make a contract with a devil you owe them your soul.

Darius was once again walking the halls not really knowing where he was going. He walked into the dance hall and looked around. It was very empty looking but he was sure they had held events here at one point. He continued scouring the area until he found something. It was Lily! His mind started to race suddenly and he was thinking so many thing. Then, whether it was faulty construction of something else, a small lightblub fell and landed on his head with a crash. It helped him stop thinking about anything for a while.

"Ow," he mumbled rubbing his head.

Darius rubbed his head and smiled, "Yeah it's only a small bump nothing major."

He ran a hand through his hair getting and shards of glass out of his hair. He then noticed Lily's art book. He slowly began to walk to the art book so he could pick it up for her.

Darius looked at her with a puzzled look. He picked up the book and handed it too her.

"Uh, Lily," he began,"Is there something wrong? Anything? You can tell me."

He nodded. He then felt like he should really check some of her drawings out, but he knew better than to invade someone's private stuff without asking. He stood up looking at the book. He placed a hand on it.

"Um...Lily," he began, "May I look at the book for a minute, because I'm curious and I want to see how well you draw."

Darius smiled and took the book and looked at it. He saw a picture of Lily and someone else he couldn't remember.

Wait a minute isn't that her sister Liz?

Then he flipped the page and saw a picture of the ancient forrest. He could see the various trees in that clearing that he had found her drawing in on the first adventure togeather.

"Serriously Lily these are really good!"

Darius flipped the page to see him and Lily at the lounge. He had to smile, once again, he was about to fall with drinks in hand and Lily was on the coutch laughing. He then began to flip the page and stopped. His eyes went wide as he saw the picture. There he was, dancing with Lily in this very dance hall. It looked like the lights were on the two of them as they danced. The thing that shocked Darius the most though was the way she had drawn him. He did not look like a hideous monster or anything of that nature. He looked gentle, his wings were a soft shade of black and he was in a white suit much like he always wore.

"Lily..." was all that came out of his mouth.

((Sadly I must go but I will be on later! At some point hopefully we'll both be on tonight.! Bye!))
