 Makayla looked away from him fiddling with th sleeves to her jacket as he spoke. Now that he was talking about it she did remember. She did watch the news when she still lived at home. She remembered crying for him though she didn't know why. She had never thought he did it. She did try to see him one..but as he had stated, she was turned away. She looked at the blood stained guitar. His blood.
She looked at him when he had finally adressed a question to her. She thought he was kind of fading in and out but it had to be just her. Crap. She nodded though and had to lick her lips to talk. She repeated her self a couple times before she could answer. Though it had nothing to do with feeling scared. Crap. "I did" she managed to say feeling like an idiot. She looked down at her hands. They were shaking. She clenched them. "It was yours?" she stated nodding to the guitar. trying to divert herslef to his subject.
"I'm sorry...I never thought you did it" she said softly.

 ~In the arms of the Angel~
"I physically didn't kill them," he said softly drawing his fingers over the scars on his arm, "but I still feel to this day that it was my fault they died..." She was the first person he had told this. No one ever believed him, always felt like he was just being dramatic because he was a lead singer. He felt that they were killed because of his fame. Someone was trying to stop his success and guess what, they did!
He had had dreams of returning to the stage again, just to defeat those that did that, but what steps would they take next to keep the Angel from being heard? -another reason to keep away from everyone.
He paced over to Makayla now and showed her the neatly cut lines on his flesh that were now scarred over, "the blood on my guitar..." He drew his finger as if in a cutting motion, "Blood, blood, so much blood, running down my arms, my skin, that ever chilling flesh, No more..." he sang the last bit as it was one of his songs.

Makayla listened to him talk blinking a few times to clear her vission. He kept..fading in and out. But it was still easy for her to pay attention to him so she did. She was kind of shocked when he said he felt as if he had killed them. She knew it wasn't his fault. She also knew that he hadn't told anyone else this and WOULDN'T ever tell anyone this. She was surprised he was telling her at all.
She watched him walk over to her with sad interest. He showed his arm to her and made cutting motions on the scars. She listened to him sing that last verse..and though it would only make things worse, she wanted to cry. She knew what he felt whn he cut himself...that type of pain anyway.
She held up her arm right next to his and pulled up her sleev. She had scars old and fresh much like his own. She looked up at him blinking again shaking away the images that swam before her eyes. "I can relate to these" she muttered knowing that was the only way she could relate..for her story was much different. She dropeed her pale arm into her lap but didn't cover up the marks or look away from him.
"I don't really know what to say..but i'm sorry your life was..screwd up" she said honestly. She really had no words that would make everything better..because there was none. But she gave it him asmall hopefull smile. "But just think.....We both have screwd up pasts that haunt us" she said trying to help him feel like hewasn't alone. She didn't even recognize that she had just quoted one of his songs.

 Bryan looked into Shasta's eyes and smiled. "Fine," he said, "I guess there's no way for me to talk myself out of this, but if you want me here I'll go too." He opened the door and looked at her. "Ladies first..." he said signaling for her to go in.

~In the arms of the Angel~
"And we both have these lines that taunt us," he continued the song, singing it clearly, "But you know it babe, at the end of the day..." he paused as he would in the song, "W-I'm here, right now, I'll always be forever more. Yes, I'm here, don't know how, but if we can make it through this mental war, we'll make it in the end..." It was one of her first songs that was released and he had written it himself. He peered at her the entire time he sang it and then shook his head.
"My voice sucks now..." he muttered but smirked, "no reunion concert here". He peered down at his feet now and rocked back on his heels for a moment, "Sorry for the awkward moments. I'll leave you alone now," he turned to leave now, knowing that surely she must have been weirded out by now.

Makayla listened to him sing the verses to her song. It sounded good to her and it made easy sense. She gave a small smile when he commented on his voice. His voice seemed fine to her..but what did she know? She watched him rock back on his feet and then stand up to leave. She stood as well. They should both probably get going. She left the guitar where he had placed it and follwed after him.
"You weren't bothering me..but I think we should both go" she said sounding nervouse. Her break down must be about to kick in. Before they left she grabed his sleev making him pause.
"You can come back anytime you want to...I don't mind...thank you for talking..its morbid I know...but I don't feel alone now" she said honestly. She didn't wait for a response and led the way out. She wondred if she would find new songs posted on her walls sometime soon. Her thoughts were clouded though as she tried hard to ignore the myst gatherin up around her...even though to anyone else no myst could be seen.

Melody jonson Melody was led from her room silently to the kitchen. They usualy made her a big icecream sunday with lots of chocolate after they found her this way. They paused though seeing two kids in the kitchen. Melody just looked on silently clutching her sketchbook to her chest. She was still trying to figure out who she had seen, so she didn't really see the boy and girl.
"What are you wo doing here?!" the adults snapped annoyed. Shadta and bryan were really going to get in trouble now.

~In the arms of the Angel~
The former lead singer of the once popular band paused and peered at her in silence for a moment, listening to her softly pained words before letting a soft smile slip across his lips. A smile, something he hadn't done in a while, one that read across those slim pinks just for her, "you aren't alone..." A future song he'd leave in that room just for her.
The two headed back out in the hall only for a group of girls to be near by. They were trying to figure out where his voice was coming from when he had sung earlier. They didn't notice at first until his pockets softly jingled as he moved past them. Eyes widened and they were soon surrounding him asking all sorts of questions about his songs, if the band was going to get back together and what not, but he didn't answer them.
It reminded him so much of the media stalking him. They still showed up ever time the band came to see him. Yes, even though the band wasn't performing anymore, they still came to check on him. They truly cared about him, but also prayed he'd come back out of there soon and start singing again. Angel, Angel, is it true?

Makayla paused as the girls started swarming around her and angel. They managed to push her ompletly out of the way, and she triped on someones shoe. She muttered annoyed at herself ready to help him until she looked up at the girls. Their faces looked completly haunted and dead to her. She knew it was just in her mind, but still she couldn't make it go away. They had no eyes and their faces were so white it looked like paint. They had blood dripping from their mouth and everything.
She moved back still on the floor. Helping Angel was completly forgoten for right now.
"no no no no no no" she muttered shaking her head back and fort. The girls laughing and questions turned to annoying noises she couldn't make sense of. She moaned softly holding her head in her hands. It usualy never hit her this fast. The myst started swirling around her again and the lights flased. Though again she was the only one seeing this. The girls were ignoring her completly intent with Angel.
She felt as if the myst was choking her and she gave a muffled scream from her curled up position on the floor.

~In the arms of the Angel~
Angel paused, the drowning out the voices of the girls was Makayla but only to his ears it was that way. Makayla's voice was so soft that no one would be able to hear it over the giggling girls, that is no one but Angel. Once they noticed the blank look on his face, the girls stopped with the usual questions and asked him what he was thinking about until he turned on his heal and went over in Makayla's direction.
Slowly he crouched down next to her and softly sang in her ear, "It's just another mile to go, one more pain until you're free. If you stop to look behind, then you'll never see that what's calling you is me..." He hoped the song would help to calm her. It was another older song of his, one he had recorded with just the guitar originally.

Makayla refused to open her eyes for fear of seeing more "dead" people. She heard the sound of the conversation change, but she didn't know why. She suddenly heard soft singin in her ear and she flinched slightly before recognizing who it was. Angel. She recognized the song two, and tried desperatly to cling to it so she didn't tottaly flip out. The girls watched him and they started making concerned questions. some running of to find doctors..the last thing she needed.
Some of the girls made rude comments about how she wasn't worth saving and that they didn't even know who she was. Makayla tried hard to ignore them but again faces danced in her head. Tears slid down her face but she was slightly calmer as long as she didn't have to look at anyone. She opened her eyes but looked at the dark fabric of Angels shirt trying to remember his song again.
The doctors showed up with needles trying to get Angel to move away from her.

~In the arms of the Angel~
"Shhhhh," he said peering up at the doctors, his arm out defensively to keep them from prodding her with the needles. His head slowly turned back to face her again."It's just another mile to go, one more pain until you're free. If you stop to look behind, then you'll never see that what's calling you is me..." he sang again, "Keep on moving, don't look back, for everything around us is black, just one more mile until your free, just one more mile, now look at me".
He tilted her head up to peer at him, hoping he could help keep her calm and spare her the drugs. He remembered the first week he'd been there, they put him on happy pills. He couldn't fell a damned thing and he hated it, he wouldn't let them do it to her too as she clearly didn't want it.

Makayla clung to Angels shirt to keep th doctors from trying to pick her up and take her off somewhere. She heard him sing again and she focused in on it despite the girls talking and doctors trying to give commands. The pictures still swam in her head but if she something to focus on they would go blurry. She didn't know that.
Her head felt like it was splitting though and she moaned again closing her eyes. It hurt to look at something. The doctors were thinking about moving Angel out of the way insiting that the medicine would help, they started tugging on Angel.

~In the arms of the Angel~
Angel pulled his arm away from the doctors and continued to protect the girl, "free free, you'll never be free as long as you back and never see that you're free you're free as long as that's the way you want it to be". He continued to hum the song to her after those last lyrics as there was a great deal of guitar plugged in as well.
The doctors continued to try and pull him away from her until another voice called over the group, a strong female voice. Everything stopped and fell silent as on the other side of the wall was a tall woman in a long lab coat. She had dark brown hair pulled back in a tight pony tail and black rimmed glasses. She had a clipboard in hand and wore sleek black pumps.
The woman paced down the hall towards the group, "don't stand around and stare!" She snapped, "Angel, Makayla, you're coming with me..." It was obvious this woman was important as everyone did as she said and tended to getting the rest of the group away as the woman just towered over the two, waiting for the situation to cool down a little.
Angel peered up at her questioningly as he'd only seen her once before, the days he had first gotten off the drugs. She watched over him like a guardian angel herself, but it was also quite obvious she wasn't a force to be reckoned with.
