Welcome to Gaia! ::

"You might want to keep looking out that way until I transform. I have no intention of ruining another set of clothing." he said as he took a few steps back, turned away and started to strip down. Once he was completly naked he piled his clothing neatly and started the transformation. It came more naturaly to him now, he remembered the days when it took great amounts of effort to shift his form even slightly but now he could reach half transformation in no time and full transformation sooner but he was only aiming for half. After a few moments he had changed into his bat like form. His size had increase to half the size of the mansion and a quarter of it in width. he turned to Nadea and lay down so she would be able to get onto his back.

be back in a few, on the phone with school)

Once Shadow stablizied his altitude, Nadea sat up on his back and spread her arms wide. She inhaled deeply, the air was so clean up there she didn't want to exhale. She leaned back down and hugged Shadow's furry neck tightly, "Thank you Shadow...."she whispered, it was so windy up there her tears were swept away as soon as they leaked from her eyes. She was so happy to be flying again, she felt like a caged bird, trapped and forced to walk around the same place over and over again. It felt as if her spirit were soaring in the clouds above them, she screamed just for the hell of it. "Ahhhh!!! AHHahahahahahahahaha!!!" she laughed loudly.

"Naaa...i'm just screaming like a lunatic for the hell of it!" she laughed sarcastically. "I'm sorry...yes....i am extremely happy." she sighed as she rolled over onto her back to look up at the sky, she reached a hand up and ran her fingers through the clouds. "God i missed this...." she laughed lightly. "I'm going to work very hard to get this back...." she promised.

"I am glad to hear that you are happy." he said with a small laugh as he tried to keep himself level and flying stright. "You have the skills to reach the flight ability fairly quickly, once there you will no longer need me to take you up but until then I will take you up here when you want me to. It is the least I can do for you after all you have doen for me." he added.

"I do not feel indebted to you. I know how much you loved flying and how much it must be killing you to not be able to currently. That is why I am doing this." he said with a pause as Nadea cut off her sentance. "I was around long before your god was spoken off, long before angels came to be or atleast long before you lot started visiting the human world. I admit my views on things are a little scewd but either way, no matter what I would have still lost all that I did. The fires still would have burned and the lives of those close would still have perished, it is the way of the world. You have done enough for me here than I could ever thank you for." he siad with a small sigh, the memories were always there in his mind, it was part of his curse, the curse of surviving. "Once you learn how to fly I'll still come up here with you. You and I both know that I need to get out more often." he joked.

Shadow noded slightly, "Yes, we may need to fight in the air at somepoint. It will also give us a good way to support our ground based forces. Things are starting to look up for us, with three necromancers summoning and re-raising troops, we can defeat any foe." he siad, he wasn't very sure about defeating any foe but he had a straneg boost in confidance, he felt good for soem reason, he felt as if he could defeate anything even gods. He then felt Nadea's noogie on his head. "It's ok, the impulses maybe comming fromt he fact that you are no longer an angel but I would only be guessing, I don't knwo enoug about themto give an acurate guess or anythign for the matter."

"Your kind isn't exactly very open you know. It is no wonder that no one knows. You never stick aroudn to be cattaloged and studied and I can understand why." he said as he turned heading back to the mansion. "Lets head back and grab something to eat. It is about time we celebrated your first binding." he said as he come in for a landing. With one powerful flap of his wings he created a small cusion of air and thudded against the roof as he landed. He then lowered himself down so Nadea coudl easily get off of his back. "Turn away now, I'll need to dress."
