 Moirae followed suit, looking Kai over again as she noticed the same thing. Although if Kai could produce diamonds out of nowhere then she wouldn't be too concerned about his lack of weaponry. Regardless, the two looked ready for action.
"Kai, as I was telling Red, I'm concerned about Lahabiel's absence and the enchantress related to him. Heaven's realm is vulnerable so there's no telling what can slip past our guards..."Moirae stepped back and waved her hands, the space in between her and the other two rippling and tearing to reveal a shining light within the tear of this dimension. Moirae's voices would distort from behind the portal, "Please find Lahabiel and neutralize any threat if any. Try not to kill unless you need to...work together and watch your backs...perhaps as Light would say."Through the distorted space, a glimpse of Moirae's smile would flash through along with the gaze of her crimson eyes.
"Hopefully Light will be back by the time you return~"-[Lahabiel and the Enchantress]-
When Red and Kai decided to pass through the portal they would find themselves standing at the edge of a forest. Behind them, about 10 or so miles away they could see the city they were just in along with the gate connecting to the outpost. To the right, the forest line curved forward and back into the distance, preventing much to be seen. To the left, more hills and valleys. The sun shone down upon the two, it's warm and comforting bath of sunlight providing vision within the forest.
On the map, a black "X" was drawn to show that the two would have to travel about three miles ahead to reach another clearing. This clearing would be their destination. Within the forest ran a river that curved around the forest and back to a part of the city that was unseen.
The forest was silent and not even a breeze was drifting by..

Kai laughed quietly as he noticed that the other two gave him strange looks, probably questioning in their minds why he had no weapons of any sort. He was used to it...It was then that he really took notice of the portal. "Well, Red...Let's get this over with." He then looked at Moirae through the rift. "Don't worry. I'll try not to go too overboard on the enemy."
With that, the elf disappeared into the portal. He blinked and looked around when he found himself near a forest. He did some stretches and smiled to himself. This was his territory. Nothing could stop him if he was going to end up fighting in the forest itself. With a gentle upward motion of his hand, vines sprouted from the ground, forming a sort of throne behind him. He sat down and relaxed, yawning. He had to wait for Red anyway, so might as well enjoy the scenery and take a load off his feet.

"Life is a virtue"
Red simply nodded to Moirae's words before she vanished into the portal. When she appeared on the other side, she was confronted with a forest and a vine throne...
With Kai sitting in it.
'Oh boy'
She thought glumly to herself. Was she seriously stuck with this guy? Shaking her head in pure annoyance, Red turned her back to him and unrolled the map once more. Three miles...That should take maybe an hour at tops if she kept moving without any disruptions...She glanced back at Kai. Okay maybe an hour and a half. Rotating her shoulder to get the kink out of it, Red started off without a word. She could easily fly to her destination, but since she was supposed to work with this guy she figured she would simply walk. Easy enough.
Red vanished into the woods, picking her way through the landscape with ease.
"So don't dwell on it."

Kai frowned as he watched Red walk away. He stood up and the throne disappeared into the ground, leaving no trace behind. He started to walk after the other, looking at the trees around them. His pace was steady but he was already trailing behind.
The elf grumbled quietly and started to jog in order to catch up to Red. It only took a few seconds but he ended up by her side. "Well...You aren't even going to say anything? No travel talk? Nothing?" With a frown, he looked over at the girl, an innocent glimmer in his silver eyes.

"Well we need to go find this Lahabeil guy, and we need to travel three miles ahead. I'm guessing since you needed to job to keep up that you are not very fast in the woods. So we will walk."
Red kept her wings tight against her back, trying to keep them from getting caught on stray branches. Ducking under a low branch, she felt a stick rub against her feathers on her wings. She scowled to herself under her breath.
"So don't dwell on it."

Lillium wondered around on Earth, since she was ditched in Hell. She didn't know why they wanted to protect her, it honestly bugged her inside. Was it because she was a female? Just the thought of it peeved her inside and she cracked her neck. At this point, she did not care where she ended up, but she wasn't done with this world. She had hate still dwelling in her viens. But now the question is what to do exactly.
Maybe I should try to find that Roy. If he is still alive that is. Maybe he can tell me what I need to do.
She closed her eyes and when she opened them, she was back in Hell.

Kai frowned and stopped walking. Red got a little further ahead before he sighed. In a burst of white light, diamond wings sprouted from his back. They resembled angel wings, but had gaps in them, only being held together by his energy. He gave them a few flaps, just to make sure they still worked. "Don't know about you, but I'd rather fly." He flapped them a few more times, this time harder, and was soon off the ground. He focused on the diamonds in his wings and shot himself straight up. He broke through the canopy of the trees and started to flap his wings freely, keeping himself at a steady altitude.
The elf started to move forward, keeping himself streamlined so he could remain a quick pace. It was then that he realized he didn't have the map and had no idea where to go. He quickly stopped and looked down, searching for Red.

"Life is a virtue"
Red Turned around in time to see him burst out of the canopy of trees. She turned her crimson eyes up to search for a break in the branches. Since you know, her wings were permanently attached to her body so they were not about to get ripped off because of a few limbs. After a moment of looking she found a weakened area that only had a few branches covering. Snapping her wings out, she crouched down and then pushed hard off the ground, stroking down hard to keep herself afloat. Her wings were fifteen feet from one end to the other so she was having issues maneuvering to try and not whack a branch.
Grumbling her herself Red made it out of the trees in a few moments, appearing behind him a ways. She couldn't exactly hover in one spot for long so she quickly took out the map and took one more glance, before rolling it back up and slipping it between her belt and her leather pants.
"This way for about three miles. So if we keep a good speed, like five minutes."
She nodded to him to give him the go and caught a gust of wind, zipping past and towards their destination.
"So don't dwell on it."

Kai laughed quietly and started to follow Red. To entertain himself, he did a few spins, letting his wings catch the sunlight to send prisms off in every direction. He slowed down a bit and did a loop, noticing that there was a tree in the forest that looked as though it had been infected by some sort of disease. He frowned slightly then went into a nosedive, slowing down and flipping in the air to land gently in front of the dying tree.
The elf put both of his hands on the trunk and closed his eyes. A green light started to envelop his hands before spreading onto the tree. Each inch of the tree was covered in a few seconds and he started to hum to himself. His wings were flapping slowly, the light growing brighter and brighter. As the light faded, the bark regained its dark brown color and leaves started to bud on the ends of the branches. Kai snapped his fingers and the buds opened up into healthy leaves, the tree returning to its original state.
Proud of his work, the elf returned to the mission. He flew back up to the open sky and quickly flew after Red. He used his energy to boost him forward, his wings now stiff to make him more aerodynamic. It only took a couple seconds to catch up, a wide grin on his face. "Miss me?

"Life is a virtue"
Red turned her eyes back when Kai dove down to land next to a dead looking tree, but she kept on her path since they were almost there. The quiver on her back full of arrows was uncomfortably tight, she put a note aside in her head to readjust that when they stopped in the clearing.
She could feel the wind rip through her feathers as she glided through the air. Narrowing her eyes, she spotted the clearing that was marked on the map. By then Kai had caught up to her.
"You have no idea."
Red stated with a sarcastic tone in her voice, but a kidding smile upon her pink lips.
"Okay here we are, we don't know what to expect so don't go charging in there like a madman."
She told him calmly, keeping her hand close to the hilt of the katana she had picked out with the red and white woven hilt. Taking in a deep breath, she folded her wings in to her sides and did a dive towards the clearing, keeping at a steady pace until about fifty feet before the ground. She opened her wings up and she slowed down dramatically, landing on the ground with both palms on the ground in a crouch. She lifted her crimson eyes to look around the clearing.
"So don't dwell on it."

Kai laughed quietly then stopped above the clearing. His wings disappeared in a flash of light and he started to fall straight down. He rotated slightly so his back was facing down and he was looking up into the sky. He was about 20 feet above the ground before a pillar of sand shot up from the ground, catching the elf and easing him slowly down into the middle of it. The sand fell around him and he was standing there unscathed.
He dusted himself off then did another stretch, yawning. "I'm sure we'll be fine...Don't worry so much, Red."
Kai crossed his arms behind his back then started to look around, not really seeing anything out of the ordinary. "So...Are you sure that map is correct?"

-[Lahabiel & the Enchantress]-
"GYYAAAAAAGHHH!!!!"
-KTH-UMP-
The ground would rumble and a cold breeze would whip through the hairs of Kai and Red. Up ahead was very nice looking cabin, an estate that had been built by Lahabiel himself. Certainly there was nothing about it that seemed out of place, however the fatal cries of an angel would reach the ears of Red and Kai and the very space around them would distort. Small cracks and pops would be heard next as reality seemed to shatter before their very eyes. A barrier had been put up to conceal whatever was inside. Whatever was inside being four dead angels- a fifth soon on it's way to being a corpse and a single figure removing her spear from the fallen.
Beautiful golden hair swayed from the wind, piercing and observing green eyes gazing to the newcomers. Her red skirt appeared in little way to hinder her mobility and her spear tip was pulsating with potency. Her aura was divine yet she had just put down five of her "brethren". She'd grasp her spear in her right hand, twirling it behind her as she stepped around the bodies to confront Red and Kai,
"Now who might you be?"
Her voice came out strong and unshaken. Her hands started to glow dimly as she rest the tip of her spear to the grass. She recognized the equipment Red and Kai were wearing yet she did not recognize their faces..

"Life is a virtue"
The crimson eyes of the woman went wide a moment, before realization dawned on her and they narrowed into shear determination. Moirae said don't kill if there is a possibilty, but this woman had slain five other angels and in Red's eyes justice was to be done. Pushing herself up to her full height, Red gripped the hilt of her katana with fierce determination. She did not know who Lahabiel was and what he looked like, but she figured one of the dead was him.
"Where is Lahabiel?"
The woman hissed, her crimson eyes glowing a dim red as anger swelled up inside of her. She had seen first hand what this woman did, and there was no persuading Red out of killing her with her bare hands. Her knuckles were turning white with the strain of her grip tightening on the hilt.
"So don't dwell on it."

Kai blinked a few times as he watched the stranger. He looked down at the bodies then back up at the girl. "My name is Kai. Who are you and why have you killed these angels?" He glanced over at Red and noticed she was on edge.
The elf whispered, "Settle down...We aren't supposed to kill, remember? Put your weapon down...We don't even know the story behind all of this..."
He laughed quietly then looked back at the stranger, a nervous look on his face as he brought his hands up in front of him. "How about we just talk...I'm sure we could get what we came for and you could be on your way..."
"What am I doing?! Since when do I negotiate?...Damn it." Kai looked back over at Red. "She better not do anything too extreme before we can find anything out about Lahabiel..."
