She shrugged and sat down on her bed. She looked at her book. They even got the first edition of Mists of Dawn. Nice.

Sora Kitty Maria was on the phone outside, trying to keep her voice level and calm as the boy on the phone was giving her a major headache. Her full attention was on not screaming.
"-you don't even have your wings, and you're jumping off roofs?! Look young man; recklessness doesn't pay off! You're lucky it's just a broken arm! Why back in my day-"Michelle could feel herself growing conscious again. In truth, before even opening her eyes, she still felt very weak, and thankful for the bed or whatever soft surface she was lying upon. Her body was nice and still, and she was cuddling something. It felt like Mr. Stuffy. Smiling, she held it closer to her as she turned her head, her eyes still closed. This wasn't so bad; chances were taht she was in her room, or-
Wait a minute....something was different, she could feel it at the head turn. Something was pulling her face, restricing her: her worst fear is not moving when she wanted to (Ok, needles were her SECOND worst fear, then). To be trapped like a rat. Closterphobia in a different sense. Something was wrong and uncomfortable in many different areas, including her nose and mouth. She could hear herself breathing loudly, more loudly than she should. She was suddenly not fully asleep, but only half, while still witnessing a scary dream.
The girl began to panic, her eyes not opened yet and her mind still swirling in subcosciousness, as she could feel something digging her in her arm as well as as on her face and other areas of her body. Still not fully consious and therefore out of it, she began to whimper, starting slowly, as she was feeling something that was on her face. What is it?! Get it off! GET IT OFF!, she was screaming in her mind loudly, trying to ignore what looked like a demon in her dreams, mocking her weaknesses.
She started whimpering loudly and in a higher pitch, tears falling down her cheeks as her entire body began to squirm, still halfly in an uncomforable dream that made hell seem plesant. The combo of them both was too much, and she felt so vunerable. Her body was sweating, not out of sickness, but out of a sudden fear that she could not fully explain. She was not aware she was in an intense care room, nor that she wasn't alone in the room. She continued to whimper and squrim, still crying as Mr. Stuffy fell off the bed and somehow rolled underneath, her caring shield now missing as she also kept grabbing about looking for it in her panicked half-sleep.
"Are you alright miss?"

Michelle realized that there was another presense in the room, who had taken the time to take off the mask that she was too weak to get off by herself. Now fully awake, she sat straight up, hugging herself as she tried to calm her mind. She turned to the one sitting next to her, dabbing her face and asking about concern.
It was the same boy from before; the one who tried to help her and was rejected. Heh, how funny; Julian the angel had left her in the tree, while this demon boy had brought her back. It was written all over his face. Strange.....this demon seemed nicer. Nicer than some angels, even.
"Y-you *cough cough* brought me here, didn't you?"
She could feel tears still falling down her face; she was so scared, for she had no idea what was wrong with her. Heaven born don't ever experience sickness, especially diseases that are really harmful to the health. Not seeing Mr. Stuffy anywhere, she wrapped her arms around the boy, brining him closer to hte bed. He was very warm.
"T-thank you....."
She then burst into tears, and sobbed into his shoulder, feeling so childish. But she was scared, in a new place, and apparently not able to do much to help. She stayed in the comfort of his arms and chest, holding onto his shirt with tightened fists. Some sort of angry yelling could be heard from another room, apparently some phone conversation gone wrong. But she chose to ignore it, and hold onto, to curl up next to, this stranger and demon. But not the stereotype kind, one with a soul.

"Yes I did, and there is no need to thank me. I did what any other person would have done." He smiled down at her as he was draw closer. He move dhis now shaking hand and rested it on her back.
"There there, it's okay. Your going to be just fine." He patted her gently on the back, then got up and sat beside her on the bed. He moved her over slightly so she was at the edge he slid behind her and reached as far as he could threw the crack.
He felt around for her teddy bear, as soon as he had felt it he picked it up. "Is this what you wanted?" He held up the tedd bear and removed her face from his chest.

Michelle knew that this boy was merely playing it down, for most people would've just left her there. After all, Julian did........but he was taking care of his charge, right?
PFFFT! THAT'S a good one. Not to say she was perfect (for she knew full and well she wasn't), but CMON! His charge nearly got set on fire,she got captured in the bathroom and taken to the enemy grounds. Something about it still bugged her, like a thought she couldn't get. The point was, Julian needed to learn and fast. She had gotten a few tips from some friends who went through the same mess, but she hated how she still didn't know hers. It was rather irritating, like a fly that won't go away, still buzzing in the ear-
But her mind snapped back to reality as she felt the boy move position, but didn't move her head, for it was very comfy and felt......safe. But she felt it move for her, a tearstained face looking upon the boy, holding up something of hers............Mr. Stuffy the Bunny!
She nodded slowly, taking the bunny and hugging it to her chest. "...thanks. I-I didn't mean to break down like that. I just don't like.....hospitals, or being uncomfortable like this." she sighed as she frowned at the IV in her arm, but was interrupted when another came flying into the room. Well, not literally, but very close.
Having heard shouting of pain while on the phone with Bobby, Maria had handed the phone to another less-polite nurse, as she ran back to the room. She saw that Michelle was awake; darn, she was supposed to be there to keep her from freaking out, but it seemed like Matt was doing a decent job. But she had been crying; oh, she looked scared to death. Without warning, she stood for a moment in front of hte door out of breath, before running over to sit next to the girl on the bed.
"Are you alright, dear?" her expression more soft as she saw more tears run down the girl's cheeks. "Aw, it's alright...shh..." she held the girl in her arms for a moment as she broke down again, stroking her hair as she let out the last bits of sobs. It was all so.....heartbreaking, in a way.
"I-I *hic* just d-d-don't know what's *sniff* wrong with me? A-a-am I cursed?" Michelle said, her voice muffled by it being stuffed on the woman's shoulder.
"Why, there's nothing wrong, and you're not cursed; simply with you an earthly disease that is being treated as you speak. Notice you aren't gasping for breath, eh?" she grinned. "I'll get you something to eat. Matt, keep an eye on her for me will ya? You're doing a good job at it as it is." she said then left the room for food and drink.

"That's alright, most people don't like hospitals. I'm just gald I could help you. I can't stand to see someone in agony." He got up as soon as the nurse had sat down.
He ;eaned against the desk, "Thanks, and of course I'll take care of her." He smiled at the Michelle. "Do you need anything. I'll get you what you need all you have to do is ask." He scratched the back of his caf. He wasn't used to talking to girls..Or anyone for that matter.
He back down beside her and dabbed at her tears "I'm Matt and you are?" Stunningly beautiful when you cry... He sighed as he thought that..

As she nodded to the nurse for thanks as she left, her mind began to race, now fully awake, espceically at the part of a demon hating seeing one in pain (very rare indeed to hear that!). Strange; something about this boy seemed so............kind, and considerate, even for a demon. That was the surprising thing; he was supposetly a demon, and here he was being so considerate and now dabbing at her tears, keeping her company....
Wait, the old memory.......the mean boys who were actually angels...Julian leaving her there....was this part of the hidden reason for seeing the dream now? Did it have to do with this Matt character? Mabye, just maybe. After all, labels were rubbish sometimes.
"I-I'm ok for now, thank you though." she answered as she let him dab away to his heart's content. "The nurse is getting food, so there's no need for you to rush to anywhere or nothing. I'm Michelle!" she added, with a small smile.
"So, for conversation's starter, what brought you down here to Gabriel's Academy? It's rare to see demons here, and vice versa with angels at Lucifer's." she asked, smotthing out her mess of a hair best she could.

"Nice to meet you Mechielle!" He smiled and tillted his head to the side.
"Well I'm here at Gabriel because I'm helping the nurse take care of you. As for me being here in genral.. My parents had forced me to come here, they said my powers where well odd. They hated me being around them.. So they shipped me off here. Can't say I blame them, so why are you here at Gabriel?" He stopped dabbing at her face noticing her tears were gone, he threw the tissue into a near by garbedge can and sat back down. ((Yeah it is very rare to hear that, but it's not impossible..))

Poor Matt; it seemed like he'd been through alot, and not too balanced on the family issues.
"Me? Well, I guess that's an obvious question, considering the fact I'm at least 2 years younger than the rest of you guys.
Well, it was mainly because I've been doing well in angel school; I've had the highest grades in the school, scored a perfect on the AAT, and I did actually skip a grade once....but anywho, the higher up angels looked over everything and decided I was ready for Earth school, that I could pull it off. You could say I'm sort of the guinea pig experiment!" Michelle grinned, but it faded for a moment as she started to pet Stuffy's ears as she continued.
"Of course, my dad's skeptical on the whole thing-not dad as in the Big man, but my actual angelical-biological one. Apparently, while I'm all in the books and with the math, he believes I won't last more than a month due to lack of "street smarts" that are needed here on earth. Haha, look at the great job I'm doing." she said, scarastically. "Day one, and I've been in here twice and nearly died twice, and damaged property. Woohoo." she sighed.
"-DO THAT AGAIN AND I'LL COME RIGHT UP TO YOUR ROOM AND BEAT UP YOUR ROTTEN PUNK A-"
"W-well..........looks like Bobby's conversation is going soothly in the hands of the assistant to the nurse." she sighed, and giggled.

" I have a feeling you'll be great. You seem very smart, and talented.. The sckness shouldn't last long I'm sure. You'll make soem friends and they will help you along, if you haven't made any yet. As for your dad..I think you should make a wagger with him.. Not anything too big incase you decide to leave for some reason. But a small bet with him. Just so he can get his hopes up and watch them fall." HA! and people say I'm nice.. He grinned childeshly at her then sat back down, this time on a chair across the room.

"I hope it doesn't last long, the sickness....." Michelle agreed, unaware that what she had was actually permanent, but could be treated. She figured it was like a human cold, fever, or flu; that even if it lasts awhile, it eventually goes away and doesn't return.
"I'm hoping that's the case as well. I dunno though, Julian and Perily just sorta left me there after getting out of Lucifer. BUt he was only taking care of...her, right? But perhaps I'll find more trusting people; I've seen to have come across one anyways." she grinned, but turned her head for a moment as she let her face redden for a moment.
Timing was good, for as soon as her face de-reddened and she was about to speak about Matt's idea of the bet, Maria had returned with two trays of food. "Nice to see that you two are getting along. I figured you both could use some food." she said, handing one tray to Matt while sitting Michelle back against the pillows, and pulling out a tray. "Now YOU, young missy, definiately need to eat. This is actually dropping a few pounds off you, which shouldnt' be happening at your age. Wait a few years for that; you're skinny enough as it is." she joked, as she sat the tray on the pull out table. Each tray had a sandwhich, cole cut by the looks of it. Matt's tray had french fries, a salad, and sugar cookies. Michelle's was a bit more towards health and less on ruffage (for that wouldn't be a good combo for a beridden person), and instead had a fruit salad and jello. That was, if she even got that far, for most don't eat a whole lot. Heck, she'd be happy if hte girl just ate the salad of fruit.
"Now, before you dig in, it's best if I try to explain what is going on. First off, this is not a normal cold-like-it'll-go-away sickness that's temporarly."
Pulling out the book, she opened up to the right page and sat next to Michelle, and took alot of time to explain the symptoms and issues that the Red Flare causes, and how it was being treated.
As Michelle listened intently, she could already feel herself snap in half out of worry. Great, so she had some rare disease that wasn't curable that she was stuck with as long as she was on Earth. "So, how much is this going to limit me, exactly?" she asked, actually a bit depressed now.
Maria could see her dismay; such a young age to feel restricted! "Nonono, you've got it backwards! You see, as long as you take the medicine, you shouldn't have any problems whatsoever. You see, even if it can't go away permanently, as long as you take this purple medicine right here everyday at the perscribed time, you'll be just fine; as if you never had this issue! You'll be just fine in our hands, just a bit of rest to go back to normal energy levels.
In other words, you've suffred the worst of it already; you just gotta stay on this stuff. There aren't any side effects or nothing, but just PLEASE remember to take it! Any other questions?"
Seeing her shake her head, she stood up and closed the book, leaving the page marked in case Michelle wanted to see it. "Now, it's best that you two go ahead and eat. You're staying here with us for a bit; I'm not letting you just walk out like last time, you really do push yourself far too hard. Try to relax, smell the roses, eh? I'll be back in awhile to check up; take care of her for me for a bit, will ya Matt? Much appreciated." and with that, she left and shut the door behind her.
But it opened again, and Maria poked her head in for a sec. "Oh, forgot to mention; make sure seh at least eats the whole fruit salad. If you have issues, I give you permission to attempt force-feeding, just be careful. Call me or Hannah up here if you need any help." she said, and the door shut again.
Michelle was a bit stunned. ".......I dunno what to say to that, honestly." she said, as she then stared down at the food infront of her. It suddenly looked so....intimidating, but she figured she'd start with the salad. She slowy forced herself to eat.

Matt waved Maria with a polite smile. "Thank you for the food Maria."
"Now let's not come to that..I don't wanna force feed you. Your not a baby and I'm affriad that I'd get smacked for it.." He smiled at her
"And i'm glad you've found someone you trust."
He looked away and down at his tray. He pocked at the snadwich, he began fiddling with it. He looked inside then slid out the meat.
"How long have you been here anyways?"

((New arrival coming through =3))
At that very moment a sharp tapping of approaching stilettos was clattering agitatedly down the hall outside. The sound got louder and louder, and was soon accompanied by a girl's voice, sounding rather irritated.
"What kind of a sick, twisted freakshow is this? I mean, not even coming to meet someone at the gates, it's disgraceful..."
The door to the room suddenly burst violently open, and in the open doorway stood a tall, blonde haired teenage girl, dressed entirely in baby-pink and pulling a garishly decorated suitcase in her wake. She stood still for a moment, her head jerking first to the boy, and then to the girl, who both looked equally startled. Eventually, she leaned slowly against the doorframe, calmly lifted up one slender arm and looked curiously over her sunglasses. Her heavily outlined eyes raked over the scene before her, and her mouth curled in a mocking disdain as she asked haughtily, "So where the hell is everyone around here?"

Gwen's phone jingled, "Huh?" She picked up.
"Gwendolyn, your charge has changed."
"What? What do you mean?" She looked at the sky. Do you really change charges? She knew that proffesionals could hop between charges, but trainees like her?
"Your old charge has left the school, your new charge is..." he fueled Gwen with a description of the charge and her name.
"I get a girl?"
"Yes."
"Okay. I'll protect her."
"Oh, and a warning."
"A warning?"
"Don't befriend demons." Then a dial tone.

((Wait, which room is the new girl in?))
"Ah, don't worry about it; I'll eat it." Michelle grinned; she was actually sort of hungry, which was probably a good thing.
"Hm, at this school I got here atttt.........6:30 this morning, although it was actually quite busy at that time. So yeah, I get a whole lotta excitement in one day, and it's my first year here, obviously." she grinned, deciding to brave the sandwhich as well and take a bite. She had been curious as to what the school food tasted like; hey, not bad! Tasted like a subway one or something.
"And yourself?" she asked, after swallowing the bite and sipping on the water left for her.
