Change was coming.
And in the carefully constructed dance of order, one mis-step could destroy everything.
Heaven knew it. Hell knew it. Their perverse symbiosis had kept the battle for souls from crossing certain lines. Heaven knew that it wouldn't exist without temptation. Purity is not the same thing as nobility.
Heaven needs the Sins to exist as much as Hell. To test humanity. Free will is God's greatest gift.
But there are more options than Heaven and Hell. And that's why change was coming.
XO sat quietly on a normal, run-down bus stop bench across the street from normal, run-down school on a normal street with run-down people. She never moved. Just watched and waited. The buses came and left, but she remained.
XO wore a black sleeveless turtleneck and jeans. Simple, functional. She needed to hide during the first phase and observe. Not play dress-up. Her long, black hair was tucked up in a simple bun. Her dark, blunt bangs hung over her blue eyes.
Anonymity. She could get used to it.
The bus came and obscured her view again. But she didn't need it. Didn't blink. She knew who was in there. They were as obvious and careless as a child's footprints on a dusty floor.
This was going to be too easy. And then....and then....
A smile almost touched her lips. But not her eyes.

Saya was so bored on her first day of school.Everything teachers taught she knew,but she had to keep a low profile.She couldn't let anyone know who she really was and where she was from.She had to finish her assignment so she could have a higher rank.

Mark walked into the classroom only to find the teacher missing. Apparently the woman was new which led him to believe that she was probably wandering the hallways lost. He sat in his desk and waited for his teacher to show, smiling at some girls in the corner who he never used to think he had a shot with but suddenly realized that was far from true.

Serafina dragged herself into her next class, far later than the late bell had rung. She blushed as everyone turned to stare at teh late-comer and she mentally kicked herself for asking a girl for directions. Of course they would have lead someone they didn't like on a goose-chase. Sighing, she tucked a piece of her black hair behind her ear and noticed a student she recgonized as she took her seat. It was Mark.

Mark noticed the girl from earlier that day enter the room. Even with his new found confidence , he was not ready to talk to her after the way he made a fool of himself earlier.

"You can't see my eyes," replied Echo calmly, "I'm invisible, and furthermore I'm behind you. And stop moving that arrow; I have done this before, you know. If you move again, I'll kill you. Now, you are going to tell me everything you know about the locations of the other Sins. Do you understand?"

(you're not making this easy XD, though how can you scissor someone's throat from behind)
"As have I," he smirked. Quickly he shoved the arrow upward towards his own throat, and as he thought the girl was surprised by his move. What he was sure she hadn't anticipated was where he was jamming it, right where the two knives met. Though he could not see the knives he could still feel them against his neck and guessed at their location. The arrow slowed down the closing of the blades just enough for him to back out of the way and elbow what he could only guess was the angel's stomach.

(okay, this is hard to visualize, but she's sort of hovering slightly off the ground and reaching over his shoulders to cross the blades in front of his neck. sweatdrop Hope that helps)
Echo gasped in surprise as he slid out of her lock and brought his elbow back to connect painfully with her abdomen, but with muscle memory born of practice every waking moment for sixteen years, she instantly brought her knives up. One swept up into a guard position, the other one darted forward to press lightly on his throat again.
She couldn't suppress a surprised laugh. "That was very good!"

"Look kid I doubt you know what you're getting into," Al stalled as he tried to think up his next move, he had faced and killed tougher angels but not many, this would definitely take some effort but he didn't mind. HE like to prove time and again that he was the best, "Why would you want to kill the sins anyway, what have we ever done to you?"

She sighed. "Envy tried to turn me, and ended up getting me killed, actually," she said sadly. She had long since been at peace with her own death, but it reminded her of Emma's situation a bit too much. "That isn't the reason I'm doing this, though. I was actually going to walk out, but I can't let you turn those kids. Now tell me, or die. Simple enough. Except you aren't going to tell me, are you? 'Pride goeth before fall...'"

"I don't think he has to tell you anything."Lust sat on the rooftop in a relaxed pose. She slipped out of class cause she felt some disruption so she went to investigate it. She walked up to them gracefullly with her katana in her hand. "Shall we make it a three-way battle or should you two return to class?"

(er.. Just so you know, my character is completely invisible. It probably looks like Pride is practicing his ventriloquism act, which, I'll grant you, is suspicious. Just thought I'd throw that out there.)
Echo saw the other Sin a few seconds before she landed, and immediately did what all Angelic assassins are trained to do at the first sign of being outnumbered: retreat, observe, and reassess the situation. She slipped through a conveniently open window, sped through the classroom, and was back in her stall in the girls bathroom before 15 seconds had passed. She had worked out an escape plan when she was observing weaknesses in his armor. Standard procedure.
