(Alright then. Is it okay to place myself there? I can change my character to somewhere else if it isn't.)
The day before, Isha had been traveling across the desert. The sun beat down heavily upon her smoke black wings, which burned her up and drained her of precious stamina. She was forced to take shelter in the nearby town. Landing by a building she tiredly opened the door inside and went in. She found a bed and decided to rest and travel at night.
~~~~~~
She awoke to shine of the torturous sun, and she grimly realized she had been too tired to wake up. Fearing exhaustion in the desert she decided to wait until night fell to travel. She scrummaged around for food until she heard voices, making her face brighten that others were around, that is until she saw who it was. Isha's breath caught in her throat, threatening to choke her as she recognized one of the ones in the group.
"Ophelia..."
As they fanned out she rushed back into one of the buildings and hid behind the door and against the wall. She's wasn't an enemy or ally to the demons, but she knew of many cases where demons would kill for the mere pleasure of it. Unknown to her however was a few black feathers resting in the sand that had forsaken her wings.

(I decided to have her be more childish when not in battle... hope thats okay.)
"War? Truly!? You better not be lieing!"
Reki held the lesser angel by the chest of his shirt and her other hand in a clenched fist threatening to harm him if he was misleading her. The angel explained further and Reki smirked releasing him.
"It's about time. I'm tired of little skirmishes... Why are you still here? Go tell the others!"
Reki shoved the lesser angel to a group of armor clad angels and proceeded to where the angel said Adrian would be speaking at.
~~~~~
Reki waiting in the audience with a scowl as she truly hated waiting, and the fact that is was to see and hear her general added anticipation to the mix. When Adrian finally arrived she looked on with awe like a little kid seeing her hero, she even began to wave as if Adrian would notice her in the crowd. She was surprised to see her in such apparel but since it was tradition she didn't doubt Adrian because of it. When was officialy declared her happy voice rose over the others. Seeing Adrian leave she went to rush after her to formally greet her for the first time. She had already childishly vowed loyalty to Adrian even though she hadn't met her, expecting her to be the very best choice to be the general. When she arrived where she thought Adrian was going to be she didn't find her. causing here to frown till an idea came to her.
"I'll just visit her at her house, she's bound to go there eventually... SHE may even be there now!"
Reki laughed and ran on to her residence.
~~~~~
When Reki arrived she found the door open and a wet rug on the porch. She tilted her head and confussion and walked up to the door knocking on it.
"Hello? Adrian?"
She walked inside thinking something bad had happened till she didn't see any signs of a fight
"Hmm."
She closed the door behind her and sat down on a chair waiting and thinking.
'What will she be like... wait... what should I say? Erm.. Hi your door was open welcome home! ...No too weird. Maybe a loyal bow and Hello, I guarded your home while you were gone! ...too stalkerish...'
Reki looked to the ceiling with a sigh, her head swarming with approaches to the situation.

 "Well then, without further ado, let us enter the main chamber." Kestral said, then turned back towards the enormous doors which were raised above a flight of stone steps.
"Asy'r tabven." Kestal said in his native tongue to one of the nearby acolytes. The acolyte nodded and bowed down to Kestral then snapped his fingers, creating a large spark of some strange energy which turned into a mist and seemed to infect the doors. The large doors had metal engravings molded onto them of dragons facing one another, one from the top of the door and one from the bottom. They were perfectly symmetrical and swirled in towards one another perfectly as well. The energy from the acolyte's hand touched the doors and caused them to pulse with the same energy. The metal parts of the door began to glow with the same bluish color and the doors creaked open slowly and rather loudly.
The angels were likely confused by the fact that Kestral hadn't made the doors open himself so he found it necessary to explain.
"It is also customary that an elemental acolyte open the doors as a test and show of their abilities. These doors are quite large and difficult to move, even with the aid of our powers. So the acolytes have made it a point to prove their worth by opening the doors themselves. I encourage them to do so." Kestral said, then began walking up the stairs. Once he reached about half way up them, he turned and looked at the two angels behind him.
"Well come on, we do have much to discuss." Kestral said, then turned and continued up the stairs.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
About thirty minutes later, a large gathering had packed itself into the massive circular room. A pit of Kurai townspeople were sitting, standing, laughing, talking, etc. beneath podiums which extended from the wall and were about ten feet from the others.
In the podiums were the Kurai warriors, the two angels, Ruzylle, and Kestral sat at the center podium which had ornate dragons descending it's spire in engravings. The clamor from the audience below was so loud that Kestral had a difficult time calming them down.
"Alright... Alright... It's time to-... Ugh... SILENCE!!!" Kestral roared, creating a blast of wind which pulsed from his body. As the men and women all seated themselves, the wind died down and Kestral proceeded with the conference.
"Ahem, let us begin by introducing our guests." Kestral said, then pointed at Adrian, who was sitting to Kestral's left, and Morgance on his right.
"Stand up and announce yourselves." Kestral said more privately to them.

Ophelia hated been ignored but decided if she wanted the current group to be with her she would shrug it off and allow a little more chaos within her recruitment since it’s the whole purpose of the war.
She flew over to the crumbled buildings to explore.
She looked around the place and a thought to herself how it much resembles a place she must of visited. So hazy. She (like many) couldn’t remember much of her past life.
Down on the dirtied concrete she saw what looked like a still intact plushy doll of a water meat. She slowly went down to pick it up to see if contact with the object would perhaps bring any sort of memory to her. Strangely she knew what it was…
Ophelia stood up straight and looked at a building with fast reaction. The same aura sensing she would get if a angel (or Adrian) was around.
Someone was in there. Strangely enough, it didnt’ feel like a Angel or Demon.
Ophelia loved surprises and wanted to savour finding out who or what it was.
She slowly headed towards the building with a slight grin as she licked her lips moving sensually, eyes focused on the structure.

Opcapta with a sheath sound of his blade retracted it back in his hand holster.
He overheard Hisakata and proceeded over to her curiously. He stood a few feet away and closed his eyes slightly in confusion like he was trying to remember something.
About her?
About this ruined small town?
“ you remember this place?”
he said in a small monotone voice as he looked at what she was staring at with her.

Isha was slumped against the wall in her poor hiding spot hoping to not get noticed. Just when she started to feel safe, a chill of fear went down her spine making her shiver all over.
'Oh no... they know someone's here... did they come here looking for me!? No I'm too insignificant... So then why... Do I just have bad luck? ... How can I get away...'
Isha looked around the room for ways out but only saw the door she came in from, the windows had been boarded shut. She could feel Ophelia getting closer. She plucked a feather from her wings with a wince and held it before her. The black feather glowed and took shape into a bow. She drew her free hand across it and an arrow formed which she held at the ready.
'I know I couldn't bring myself to use this... but maybe it will help me escape. Please protect your forsaken child.'
Isha moved around and then jumped through the open door and hurriedly aimed where she sensed the advancing person to be and it was sure enough, Ophelia.
"Sta- ... STAY back!"
Her hands trembling from the one before her, Isha began to back up preparing her wings for a quick burst into the air. Isha's eyes staying completely focused on Ophelia.

Ramella Silver Darkstar peered at the two from behind a pillar. Her long black hair as a perfect camoflage against the dark. She watched the two figures approach each other. One that seemed to have fire glow all around her a stood withy dominance and power. The one she had seen in her vision....But the second who was trembling but had wings of the darkest ebony and a bow almost as big as herself. The bow was of an amazing design, shining like a gemstone, powerful and as dark as the night sky.
As she studied the two figures carefully she had remembered the one with fire around her...but only vaguely. It had been a dream, now she remembered! Her name was Ophelia, also know as the great dark one. Ophelia had come to her in her thoughts and said : Join me...... and tghe last words she heard were: you must make a choice....heaven or hell....which is good and which is bad....?
But who was the girl clad with wings?

Hisikata looked Opcapta. She was unsure if she should answer. He didn't know if he really wanted to know or was just saying it to fill the silence. The vampire decided to answer anyway.
Yes, I do...now. She said bluntly.
Her eyes searched Opcapta's face for any sign of a reaction.
Why do you care? Hisikata questioned coldly.
She didn't mean to act this way, but past events had made it difficult for her to trust people.

Luna stood there in the cold, dank cave, she stood up straight, not seeing this person as a threat anymore and spoke
"I know, I have the rug, thats not important...WHO ARE YOU, you seem sort of familiar, Do you have business with Adrian?...I think you do, and I wont leave you here, Please, come with me", Luna spoke confidently
The cat girl, leaned down, offering her hand.............

Ophelia raised her eye brow. She saw before her an angel of some sorts.
The girl's black tainted feathers were the main attraction for Ophelia as she looked her up and down.
what are you exactly? Your not a type of angel iv seen before.
She continued to walk slowly, but not making any sudden moves however.
it seemed like she was pondering something as she saw the fear in the girl's eyes.
Heres a thought, if your a renegade angel, you must be some sort of outcast i presume? tell me. whats your story little lamb?
The look on her face was an attempted nurturing one.

Opcapta didnt react to the outbursts of the vamp girl. He watched and stared at her for a moment.
Demons dont generally care about anything. I suppose I was curious. Forgive me, I just havnt seen anyone react this way before.
He pondered a moment
actually. when I think about the last memories I has when mortal, I have had painful feelings similar to what you are having. Best to let it go
he began to walk off towards where menji was yelling. Not like he was trying to be harsh but because the conversation seemed to be leading somehwere that bothers him.

Isha backed up some as Ophelia walked forward, trying to keep herself out of melee range while still keeping the shining black bow arrow aimed toward Ophelia's center, not toward any specific spot. With Ophelia speaking to her she tried to glance around to try to notice the others, but it was in vain since she had to keep Ophelia in view to not succumb to a burst forward and be disarmed, so she focused back onto her.
"Please just... stay there... I'm... I'm a fallen angel."
Actually labeling herself as such brought a tear to her eye but she tried to keep her expression determined like that of a cornered mouse with a way out. She did not regret the path she took.
"Why am I... Because I saved the demon my companion was sent out to kill."
Memories of that day unwillingly came back, making her look down distracted and her aim lower as well.
"He was dying... he looked so... helpless..."

Hisikata watched Opacpta walk off and headed in the opposite direction, using a shortcut she knew. Wtihin minutes she was standing across from the zombie.
Hello. she said clamly.
She acted as if nothing was happening and went on speaking.
Opcapta should be here soon. By the way I don't know your name yet. she said.
It was then that she noticed that she and the zombie were not alone.
Who or what is this? Hisikaita questioned.
