How could she ask for anyone's trust if she herself, wasn't being completely honest? With a sigh as another foolish attempt fail drastically. Looking down at Vincent, Eliza opened her mouth, before closing it. What should she say? She. . would actually like that. " Okay," The halfling agreed, seeing the childish like contribute, " Okay-Okay. I'll go on a date with you after this Battle Vincent Wolfgang, I'll try it out." Feeling the movement behind her, Eliza took her blade, easily swipping the figure that was running towards her with speed. " Honestly!" The angel esclaimed annoyed with these soilders.
" And Vincent? Yes. I could trust you, But please be patient with me."

I look at her. No way she just agreed. "Really?" I let an arrow pierce my skin, but I swat it off, and hit them with a backwards glance of Sinbane. "I don't believe you." I sit, then I jump up. "Okay!" I fly up, and incinerating the first line of soldiers still coming, the rest hit a retreat. I put distance, and we retreat. I find Eliza. "Now, let us be off!" I smile. "And I will be as patient as I need to with you." I then walk with my retreating men. I stop for Eliza. I then feel a terrible feeling, and I say something, very slowly. "I still ask for that date..." With that I pass out.

Eliza nodded, before hearing his next response which ended up with her laughing lightly at his antics. She did said it clearly, did she not? With a shake of her head, her smile slipped away as she simply started to follow the retreating troops, her attention on the buzzing figure of Vincent. " I'm being serious Vincent." She called out slightly, as she picked up her pace to catch up to him. Looking at him curiously at the start of his she sentence, he didn't get to finish it and working on quick reflex, she caught him. " Vincent!"

"The energy, leaving." I say, my eyes not open. "I can't take it." I hold my hands together, and then, the real pain comes. I reel in it. "Ah! Kill me now!" I knew this would come, but I needed the energy, and now, I was paying for it. "Eliza, kill me now!" I say. There were few things that could keep my from feeling this pain. I thought of ways, most involving Eliza killing me. Though, there was another one, but as she stated, she didn't believe in love at first sight. I reel again. "I am going to die!" I yell. It was like having all of your limbs ripped off. I should have never done it. I think of that way again. No, she would never do it. I could try, but no way. I open an eye very slowly, and not very much. "Eliza....." I blink, and again, I fall into unconsciousness. I then telepathically tell her. If you could, well, hold me, and act like you even like me, that should ease the pain. Heavenly power is a lot like love. If you replace one with another, it removes the pain of the unpowering process.

Kuso. The blonde angel was not confused at all. Eliza understood what was happening, being one to witness this before, and the only thing she could really do for him is look at him with sympathy, and sadness, before letting his weight carry them both down say that his head rested on her lap. " I can not do that, Vincent." She said softly, quietly, to his first 'request' as she even doubted that he heard her. As the men probably wonder what was going on, she simply sat that way running her fingers through his hair as her sword sat limply at her side, " I do like you, Vincent. " Her voice was soft as she held him a little closer. She understood that the pain of this action, she really did. With a soft quiet sigh, Eliza found herself mirroring his same action, when she lightly kissed him on the forehead. A show of affection if you will, rather its family, friendship, or a love one.

I could feel the emotion through our link, Dang Vincent, that was brilliant! You seriously need to give me some tips...especially since Scarlet still thinks I might be trying to kill her. I mentally sighed and turned my attention back to Scarlet with a weak grin, "Um...ya I did... See I um..when I first learned you where mostly blind, when I still pretended not to know you...well....I promised myself I would let you see the beauty this world still has to offer." I grabbed her by the arm and pulled her through a portal, ofoucrse she tried to wrench free, until she saw where I had taken her. The cavern was in the deepest depths of my cave home. Large orange crystals gave off a a light from an eternal flame inside each crystal, making the cavern, the size of a collosium, glow, lit by ethereal fires. "This is the beauty I meant, this world may not have as many beauties as in our time...but the Earth itself still does. Always remember that even in the deepest darkness....there is always beauty and light somewhere....if you just look hard enough." I blushed so deep that you could tell even through the orange light. "This is where I harvested the gems in our engagment rings." I took a deep breath, the memory of when I asked her hand in marraige swirling out of the darkness. I took to one knee and grabbed her hands in mine, I stared into her eyes, my eyes had returned from green, to a majestic orange fire, matching the gems in brightness, and burning with love and affection. "Scarlet....I love you...there are no other words to describe the feeling. I want to marry you, to raise a family with you. I want to get married before I die. With our situation as it is...I do not know when that time will realy come. So I ask again...will you marry me?" The moment was surel. She did not even trust me right now, yet I laid my heart back on the line, I was completely at her mercy. As I looked in her eyes, the black and blood red that had so frightened me in the back of my mind flickered and was gone, replcaed with the same bright orange from our first meeting. Tears weld in my eyes. Without even realising it, I had returned to the form I had when I first met her. My hair black, my jacket white and black. I nearly cried, when I looked at her...all I saw was the beautiful young women with a defiant stare and a determination built from a flame that would never die.

Scarlet sat down on the hard ground stunned while she looked up at the glowing gemstones.
"It's beautiful! I dind't even know that something like this could even exist in today's sociaty of dirt,grime,and everything so bland.But then again,I've been sort of blind for almost 300 years so........"
When Scarlet turned around and saw that Drako was in the same clothes that he had worn when she frst met him she started laughing quietly but it built up into a roaring laugh.
"Oh God!You really didn't do that did you!and your answer to your proposal would be a maybe."
Scarlet saw Drako's face fall as he lowered his hand from hers.Scarlet picked his hand back up and whispered in his ear quietly,"The answer is yes but are you really prepared to actually marry the queen of the netherworld Drako because the power its self is coruppitive.Becides,I think only I can poses that that kind of evil power withough going insane like my father did.I'm amased that even scotts didn't go insane by it."
Drako pulled back and looked shocked but Scarlet ruffled his hair."You know that you are still so young at heart?"
Scarlet could n't help but to smile and produced a rose that had blue on the outer peddles but became a blood red color as it came to the center.She handed it to Drako who shook his head in annoyance.
"I know that you made those for me Drako! You can't lie to me."

I blushed, "Yes I did make these... and Scarlet, im the Lord of friggin Chaos! I don't think more dark energy is going to make me go insane with what I already have on my plate. No dire warnings are going to stop me! You know how stubborn I am." I winked at her and walked out into the cavern motioning her to follow. In the middle was the most amazing thing yet, a large pool of water that glowed with the same inner fire as the crystals. "I'm not completely sure how it glows like this, but it's the natural color of the water, not just the room." I took out a small vial and dipped it in, plugging it I put it back in my pocket, "It's magical properties are astounding. It gave me an amazing energy boost when I casted fire spells, but seemed to weaken some of my others. I think this used to be some sort of fire shrine back in ancient times." I peered out at the surface of the water as I noticed a drip. I looked up and saw that one of the crystals was dripping into the pool of water, the water from the crystal a fiery orange. "Well that explains alot...I suppose. Maybe there are shrines like this all over the world, would that not be astounding?"

I drifted in the dream I was having. I see ten people, all in some kind of weird white and black robes. The forefront one offers his hands in a friendly gesture. "Welcome Vincent, to the realm of Nothing." He flows his hands to the realm we were in. It was clear, but not white. Hazy, but not white. It was, Nothing. I look around. I then catch my clothes. I jump at it. "You are one of us Vincent. You have never been satisfied with either Holy or Dark, Good nor Evil, you don't like both either. You like Nothing. That is why you are here. You have reason, but not a reason to live. You have been Dark, Holy, and both, but yet, you are not really anything. I welcome you, to be a Nothing, like us." His hands run down the line. "We and you, are the good Nothing. Those that oppose us, are the Bad Nothing. The bad Nothingness wants all to be under their control, they believe that since No-thing is greater then God, and God controls almost all, then Nothing is to control all. We believe in filling spots where anything can't fill in. You are one of us, and welcome."
"But what does nothingness do?" I ask, looking at my clothes, and at Sinbane's make over. The blade had long runs of black running down the blade. "And what element?"
A man steps out from the rest, a newcomer, with Sinbane on his back, his robe's hood up. "We have no element, but we have all elements. Water, fire, ice, Light, Dark, all. We all specialize in one, you Vincent, shall in Light, not Holy. I hope you understand why." I know that voice. It was... "I welcome you Vincent, for you, are here for your training. It will be brief, for there is little to train you in." He was.... "There is but one rule. Nothingness cannot be before God." I ponder that. "If they are before God's eyes, they can destroy the natural order. When you die, you go to one place, Oblivion. This is where you are now. You die in the plane of Existence, you are Condemned here for the rest of eternity. Your blade Sinbane is now Oblivion. The sister sword of Sinbane. Use her well, for she is like Sinbane in every way. She can shape shift to what ever you place before her. It will do you well to try this. One handed Sinbane is Gold, One handed Oblivion is Gold and Black." I try it, he was right. I summon two, and it does as I command.
"But, why am I, well, you, like this?" He was me, I figured that much out before he started talking. He lets his hood down. White and Black hair as long as my Father's had been. "What did we do to be Nothings?" He shakes his head, and the others laugh.
"We are Nothings, Nobodies, the Nothingness', because we are not either anything. We are in existence, but yet, existence is not us. Do you understand?" I nod. "We are born as to be someone, but we end up as no one. We are not sure how this does happen, but we know it does. Why black and white? Because we feel it symbolizes our meaning of nothingness. And grey was already taken, so, eh. Do you understand me?" I nod again. "Now, Nothing of Light, go forth, and defeat your future spawn!" I blink. "Oh, I see, what is he, right?" I nod. "He is the Nothing of Magic." I tilt my head. What?
"So, he controls all of magic?" He nods. "Am I still a summoner?" He nods. "But I use light instead of Holy?" He nods, and then smiles. "I am, the Nothing of Light?" I raise an eyebrow. "I see." I really didn't. This was complicated. "But Jamie, Eliza, Drako and Scarlet, they are my reason to live!" He nods several times. "But I only have reason, not a true reason, we are not of.... Fate." He lets out a laugh.
"You have it! I knew you were smart, you are me after all! And as for your wings." He snaps his fingers, and they are gone. "They will be there when you need, but not all the time. Us Nothings cannot be associated with other realms of being. You may love, be friends of, and even be family of other realms, but, you cannot pretend to be of another. Nor can you be associated as much. We don't know why, but God set these out for the natural order to be protected. Now, you know, now go." I feel the light kiss on my forehead, and wake to Eliza. I look at Sinbane, the large sword sitting next to me was indeed Oblivion, and so was my clothes turned into what my dream had been. I lay there, my head in her lap.
"Thank you, Eliza, I am thankful for what you have done, without you, I would never be here. I am truly grateful." I let myself drift into a state of awareness, but still somewhat resting. "Oh, and that date, is still on." I smile.

" Would you mind telling me what you were dreaming about?" Was the first thing that came out of the angel's mouth as she lightly poked his cheek teasingly, " Really. Those facial expressions." During this, 'dream' of his, out of the blue his clothes really did chang. It was. .. odd, to say - but sometimes it does happen with certain circumstances. Which made her even more curious about this 'dream' he was having, after the fact that she actually squeaked when such a change came.
To be honest, she didn't know what to think.
Eliza still didn't.
The halfling wasn't gaping at him, as she was able to pull her wits together quickly enough to come up with a decent question. " And, Vincent? I'm sure you would be still." Tugging a strand of his white hair, she plucked a strand out, before showing it to him, " Would you mind explaining?"
His eyes, on the other-hand, were still the ruby gems that they were.
Hm, Perhaps maybe her taking it this well meant that it still wasn't fully clicking.

"I was becoming a Nothing." I smile. And rub where she had poked me. "Does it matter what I was dreaming about so much as it happened, and now, I am of Oblivion and not of Heaven?" I relate the dream to her. Ending with, "Then I woke up to your beautiful eyes and that grin of yours." I smile as it goes away. "Hey! Bring back the grin!" I keep my head in her lap as I look around. "So, I did change into what I am. Interesting."

What met him was a lifted brow when he first stated he was becoming a Nothing. Then his next statement. And then finally, after he related his dream what met him was a rather blank expression. Amethyst eyes stared at him as her mind was trying to come up a explanation for his story. ' Wait. . . what?'
" Vincent, I think, - .. I think that calling that much energy zapped you a little bit to much," She prodded his cheek again, this time concern was flickering in her eyes, " You're not broken right? Or perhaps-" Shaking her head, Eliza shifted slightly, " Maybe I broke your brain." She mutter quietly to herself not fully serious.

"No, no no." I blink up at her. "I am perfectly okay, I just have become Nothing. It is hard to explain, seeing as I still do not fully comprehend, but we are, well, not of Fate, we don't let her control us, and we can not be seen by God. That is about it, and I control Light, but not Holy, which is weird. I think, the best way to state this is, well." I think on it. "That I am a No-one, a person who has no real reason to live, but has every reason to live. Like you, one of my reasons to live is you. And Destiny, I still have a destiny, but Fate does not control our destiny, it is controlled by someone else entirely, God. It is hard to explain."
