Sayuri's lips pursed together in an '0' shape as she examined Miyu and then the sketch of the other female's angel. "She is so cool, well here's mine. I got her yesterday since it was my 13th birthday. Her name is Michiko which means beauty and wisdom, she's light weight and balanced between speed and power." She announced with a hint of proudness in her voice as her slender fingers delicately retrievedthe angel and held her out, letting Michiko lie flat on the palms of both hands. Her kercheif was a mixture of light and dark blue with a tint of silver here and there to give it a little shine.
"I certainly haven't battled yet, I wouldn't know where to begin." She admitted and giggled silently. "I've loved Angelic Layer ever since I saw the shop open up, it's always interested me for some reason. I guess the whole of idea of angels battling got me into it."

"I left mine at home," Elizabeth murmured sadly, remembering how her sister had broken in earlier that day, "She's medium build and speed based, too. I could run and get her if you want!" Elizabeth's face lit up and she set her canvas bag by Kika's paws, along with a stern command to "Stay." Darting up the street as fast as her non-athletic legs would carry her, she pulled open the front door and ran up the steps, ignoring the startled looks on her parents faces as she flew past the living room. Pulling out her key, she unlocked her door to find her sister stooped over a small figure. The elation left her as she saw that it was her angel. Worried for it's safety, her voice held more than the usual cold stern tone that she used for her sister. "Out," she commanded the eleven-year-old, who raced to comply.
Carefully examining Aleia, she determined that her sister must not have touched her. Holding the angel close, she darted back out, not even bothering to lock the door behind her. Due to the close proximity of her house and the park, it took her only two minutes from when she left the two girls to when she returned, panting. Fixing her angel's hair, she showed it to the two girls. "Just got her...today," she panted, "Haven't...battled yet."
She redid the artful arrangement of her angels thick braid of red hair, then smoothed out the sapphire handkerchief she had used for a makeshift dress. She was surprised to see others had done the same. "Aleia," she said proudly, looking into her angels deep green eyes.

((wow, you guys simu post a lot))
Kylie looked at the angel that the girl pulled out of her obi and nodded. Light balanced. That would be fun to fight....once she learned how. She was about to tell the other girl that it was alright, she would just see Aleia later but she was already off and running. "Wow, when she perks up she becomes a lightening bolt!"
Shaking off her surprise she looked back at the younger girl. "So yesterday was your birthday? Well Happy Birthday!" Before she could get any further though the other girl could be seen running back into sight. Damn that was fast!
"So none of us have battled yet...should be fun when we finally battle each other. Which kinda reminds me....We all introduced our angels but not ourselves. I'm Kylie."

((I have to go now bibi <333)) Sayuri look slightly surprised at her speed and even more surprised when the blonde girl came running back into view carrying her angel. "Thankyou, and wow that was really fast!" She exclaimed and peered down at the newly arrived doll that was held in the panting girl's hands. "It sure will be fun when we all battle, hopefully we'll all have some knowledge of what to do then." With a small giggle she ran the tips of her fingers down Michiko's dark wavy hair and twisted the silver plat around her little finger without realising what she was actually doing.
When Kylie spoke again it jolted Sayuri back into reality and she rubbed the back of her head with a sheepish grin. "Oh yeah, well my name is Sayuri Tenshi, but just call me Sayuri. I think we got so engrossed in discussing our angels names and stats we forgot about our own names." Tucking her own angel back into her obi so that the bust upwards was visable, she gave silent sigh of happiness and stared up at the darkening sky.

KonstantineKonstantine poised herself against a dimly lit lamp post as her eyes studied the ongoings around her. Often, when sleep eluded her, her feet would carry her across the streets of Gaia. It mattered little where she ended up, as she always found something to hold her interest. Her mind was free to wander in the midst of night. Above, the stars twinkled above her as though she had awakened a great something within them.
The night was calm, spreading across the earth like a blanket. As Konstantine stepped out from the ring of light provided by the lamp, she noticed the whisper of voices, carried her way by the breeze.
It was nice to know she was not the only one that enjoyed the presence of night. Between Konstantine's nimble fingers was a long piece of silk that she weaved around her wrists and through the spaces of her fingers. The cool material sounded much like the flapping of wings.
Konstantine closed her eyes against the night, listening to that around her.

Elizabeth glanced back and forth between the two girls. “”I’m Elizabeth,” she told them, “And I’ve never even gotten into a fight, so I’m not sure how battling is going to work...” Her voice trailed off and her gaze wandered as she realized what a disadvantage that would be. Her eyes lit upon yet another female, this one leaning against a street lamp on the outskirts of the small park. Shaking her head at the number of people when she had come out for seclusion, she turned back to her two fellow deus. “I have to go back home,” she told them, glancing up at the moon as it sunk past its zenith. She had been out for a while, and if she didn’t get home now, she wouldn’t get any sleep by the time the sun came up. “I’ll look forward to battling you,” she told the girl in the kimono. She had no idea what parting remark would be befitting of the red-head, so simply said “Bye.” Turning back to the edges of the part, she began to walk home.
Yet, despite her intentions, her feet carried her slowly and in a roundabout way. Her eyelids felt like lead, and it took all her willpower to put one foot in front of the other. Her right hand firmly grasping Kika’s collar in hopes that the dog might prompt her to move faster, she trudged onward. The block to her house felt like miles, and it was with immense relief that she pulled open the front door. Closing it as silently as she could, she turned and walked through the dimly lit room. Her footfalls were soft as she scaled the staircase and unlocked her door. With what little energy she could muster, she managed to make it to the other side of her room, collapsing on her bed. As she fell almost instantly asleep, her hand clasped her little angel.

"Bye, maybe I'll see you tomorrow." Sayuri replied with a little nod before Elizabeth left and as she turned around, caught a glimpse of the girl leaning against the lamp post. She wasn't sure if she should greet her since she was some distance away so she shrugged the thought off and faced Kylie again with a thoughtful smile. The sky was a deep shade of blue now with tinges of purple and black as the night grew nearer and the sunk sank lower and lower into the horizon. It was pretty late now but Sayuri had no idea what the actual time was, but she didn't worry at all, she wasn't planning on going back home until the sun had rose again.
A couple of hours before, she had had a terrible argument with her older brother and receieved a good shouting at from her parents about answering back and so on. These falling outs were extremely rare in the Tenshi household, but when they happened they were fierce and included alot of shouting and saying hurtful words. A couple of tears pricked her amber eyes as she remembered the confrontation but batted her eye lids until they disappeared and quickly blurted out, "I had something in my eyes, that's why I was blinking so much just then!" to cover up her actions incase Kylie saw the few tears.

Kylie had seen the other girl long before the others. She was used to seeing that shadow nearby since childhood and it had caught her attention. Before she could do much though Elizabeth had run off somewhere and this one, Sayuri, looked like she was about to cry. Oh hell...why do I always get stuck with these little kids. Great, and Konstantine's going to think I made her cry.
Smiling at the younger girl she pretended to accept the explanation since she had done that many times with her twin to try to look strong. "Yeah, the pollen from the trees here can get really bad...." A strong gust of wind whipped Kylie's ponytail in to a haze of red that obscured her face for a few moments before calming down to a point where she could push it back to where it belonged. As she tossed it back into place she looked to the horizon where Konstantine was standing and raised a hand in greeting. She knew better then to wave her over like a dog but that should be enough to let her know that it was okay to approach and that she hadn't gone unnoticed.

FeixueThe glass doors slid aside at her approach, sending a blast of cold and noise towards her yet again. This time, though, Feixue came prepared. Over top of the red dress, she wore a black jacket. The cloth was thin, but it kept away enough of the air conditioning for her to be comfortable. Hanging from her right shoulder was a small red purse with swirling designs in black, and protruding from the opened zipper was a silver-haired angel. Due to the purse's petit size, just the presence of the doll made it a tight fit for her cell phone and wallet.
"It's only the early afternoon, and this place is packed already," she said to herself as she merged with the crowd within "Descending Angels." She browsed through the shelves stocked full of various outfits and accessories. They were all beautiful and well crafted, but only the outfit labeled "Unicorn" interested her. She considered buying it, but decided against that in the end. Should probably look through the rest before deciding. So meandered on through the shop, occasionally pulling out Valkyrie and holding her next to some clothes to see how it would look.

Sayuri was about to say something but decided against it when Kylie waved to Konstantine and gave a feeble wave to the stranger. She couldn't help feeling that older girl felt a little uncomfortable about being around her, since she was younger and plus they had only just met each other. "I don't think it was the pollen....." She retorted in a whisper, so quiet that it was barely even audible to herself. The new arrival seemed kind of strange to Sayuri, due to the fact that she was just standing there with her eyes closed in the darkness of the street. She knew better than to stay this outloud but still found herself fighting off the urge to say what she was thinking and offending both kylie and the other girl. Instead, turning to to Kylie she asked this, "Kylie-San.....I mean Kylie who is she? The girl you just waved to?"
Out of the corner of her eye she got a glimpse of another older woman dressed in a violent shade of red ambling around before disappearing from view. Sayuri didn't think it was worth troubling Kylie with and merely forgot about it, the lady didn't look very important, it was just the striking clothes that made her stand out from the crowd.

((Sakura...it's night time and we're in the park. ^_^ ))
Kylie just ignored Sayuri's comment about the pollen. Obviously it wasn't that but it was nicer then pointing out that she had lied about getting something in her eye. Really, even a kid should know that much.
Looking over her shoulder again at Konstantine she furrowed her brow and tried to understand what she was doing out so late at night, alone, and just resting against a street lamp. Kinda dramatic even for her. "That? That's Konstantine. She's a really good friend of mine and a fellow Deus. We bought our angels together." Turning her face back to Sayuri as she talked it was hard to keep the wind from whipping her ponytail into a frenzy of red whips that kept beating against the skin on her face.

"OH! It seems people with angels like to come out at night then, it's almost like a gathering of some sort. Although I'm sure everyone turning up just now happens to be a coincedence." Sayuri exclaimed in a higher picthed voice. Seeing Kylie's fiery red hair get whipped about by the strong wind made her feel glad she had the 3 hair ornaments in her light brown hair to keep it all in place. Although her hair didn't get messed up she had to turn around from the direction of the wind to sheild her face from the lashings that it was giving as it hit her skin.
Her light amber eyes hovered on Konstantine for a while longer before tucking Michiko futher into her obi and folded her arms to prevent the long sleeves of her kimono being blown about. "But what is everyone doing here at night everyway?" She piped up, talking slightly louder than usual above the wind.

((I thought something was a little off. *is kicking herself for not reading the posts carefully* Eh, well. I'll work with it. ^^)) Other than that blue Unicorn outfit and a pair of feathery ears, nothing else in the shop peaked her interest enough for her to consider pulling out her wallet. With Valkyrie now perched on her left shoulder, Feixue left the shop. IThe sun set already? She reached into her purse and pulled out her cell phone. The screen informed her that it was now dusk, which was many hours after when she had first entered "Descending Angels." That's got to be the longest I've ever been in any store... It was still a little too early for dinner, not to mention that she wasn't hungry, so Feixue allowed herself to wander the streets a little more. Several blocks away, she found the cafe that she was in several weeks ago and decided to stop there for a few minutes.
The crowd in there consisted of mostly older people, though an occasional teenager could be seen. Some stared at the angel on her shoulder, but she paid them no heed. Feixue ordered a cup of cold chai tea and settled down in a remote corner. She took Valkyrie from her shoulder and carefully placed her on the table. Absentmindedly, she sipped her chai while thinking of something she overheard earlier today. An entry phrase...Hn...
It was long after when she had finished her tea before she thought of one. Feixue smiled as she ran the phrase over and over again in her head, trying to perfect it if possible. She tossed the cup into the trash can and returned Valkyrie to her perch as she stepped out into the streets. The night was windy, but otherwise warm. In the yellowish glow of the streetlights, she walked in the direction of home.
About half way back to her apartment, though, something caught her eye. A group of girls were congregating in the park. Curious as to see why they would be out playing at night, Feixue turned from the sidewalk and into the park. As she neared them, she could tell that they were of varying age. Though she made no attempt to hide herself from view, she stayed several yards away, just watching them.

Kylie's attention was caught when someone moved in the opposite direction of Konstantine. What the hell? How many friggin people are out this late at night just strolling around? Don't they have better things to do? Wait...don't I have better things to do? Looking back at Sayuri again she shrugged and looked exasperated. "I was on my way home and say some girl drawing...didn't expect a cult meeting. Well, if people are going to insist on congregating here then we might as well sit down, no?"
Moving back to the bench a few feet away she sat down and placed her messenger bag on her lap, relaxing into the seat and waited to see what would happen next. Maybe Ghandi would show up.
