Wimpering slightly the blue haired boy threw his hands out to the girl, shaking his head as the memories began to fill his mind. Tears began to leak from his tightly closed eyes, falling down his pale face and hitting the soft floor. Letting out a crying he crawled along the floor his wings folding round his body as he moved away from the others. Reaching the other side of the room Reiko pushed himself to his knees and clasped his hands to his face, covering his eyes, he dug his fingers into the skin leaving small indents on the surface. 'Please...please no, don't do it! P..please I don't want to s..see anymore!' Crying out again, the blue haired boy then pulled his knees to his chest and wrapped his wings tightly around his shaking frame, taking deep shaky breaths he stuttered, 'P..p.please, for...forgive m..me! P..please, forgiv..forgive me! Please... f..forgive m...me!'

"Reiko!" Hikaru shouted again shaking the hell out of him. She was pushed out the way and he scrambled to the other side of the room his glowing blue wings hiding his body which started to fade with the sunrise. She thought at touch he would break out of it, but he was obviously deep within his mind. Walking over to the other side not giving up, "You have nothing to be forgiven for!" She said forcing his wings out of the way and putting her hands on his shoulders crouched in front of him, "You dont have to remember this..."

Toby sat slumped against the wall and some girl stepped over him. She was pretty. All the girls seemed pretty to him. He watched her approach Reiko, who he hadn't noticed until now. "Reiko!" He cried and crawled over, his wings out slightly so he looked like a turtle with wings. # "What's happening to him?" He asked, raking his hand through the boy's feathers, how it knew it felt nice. He fingered the feathers, admiring their exotic colours.

'P..please f..f..forgive me, Pl..please forgive .....m...!' Reiko stopped as he felt his wings being push apart, his body exposed, vunrable. Looking up into the eyes of the girl then to the eyes of Toby, Reiko sniffed and held back a sob. Shaking his head at the memory he looked down at his hands, they were shaking, he was shaking, his entire body shaken with the fear of that memory. 'I...I'm sorry...' Looking over at the other male beside him he quickly cast his eyes to the floor, ashamed that he had shown this side of himself so early in a hopeful friendship he wanted to build. Reaching up to his wing the teary eyes boy pulled two feathers from his blue wing and held them out to the two people in the room, Toby and Hikaru. Reiko's own way of apologizing.

Hikaru sighed with reilif when Reiko came back to his senses, "You have nothing to be sorry for..." She said smiling then standing up and accepting the feather so she wouldnt offend him. Then relaxing slightly and then told them the message she had come up to deliver, " Muraki told me to come up and tell you two he is calling a meeting. Don't know what about though" Hikaru said sitting on a bed nearby, "Oh! and there is sand outside. Wasnt this place just bought?"

Click! That was the sound Sabaku's bones made as she sat up, somewhat healed. She looked down at her hand, but it was stuttering, still a very sandy colour. She breathed deeply and, shaking, she pushed herself up, somehow managing to stand on her legs. She whipped out her sword and used it as a stand, her knees bockling. 'How embarrassing...' she thought. She faced the door to Toby's room and sighed. But she could hear panicking voices and she walked in. "What's the matter?" she gasped, realising her voice was a little off. She turned around, holding up a finger and coughed hard, a large clump of sand projected from her mouth and into her hand. Cringing, she hid it behind her back, bowed to the group of people and staggered to the bin, dropping it in. Afterwards, she turned to watch the scene. "I'm sorry for making you worry," she said. "And, that was me... I left the sand there, it's gone now..." Sabaku, somehow, could not make eye contact with Toby. She'd grown a fear of his temper, now.

Hikaru turned around to the door hearing someone enter. Turned out to be a girl with currently sandy skin, "Everythings fine now. Dont worry!" She said smiling and then said the sand outside the door was her, "Sorry. I didnt realise. I just thought it was a random sand patch..." She said then realised how strange that sounded, "I didnt mean to ignore you. Just I didnt know..."

Toby accepted the feather with a grin, pocketing it and plucking out one of his own, placing it in their blue hair. He smiled and offered a hand to help Reiko up. He saw Sabaku enter and felt guilty for getting angry. He thought he might apologise, but right now he couldn't bring himself to it with cheeks as crimson as wine. He avoided her eyes, which was easy as she wouldn't meet his. "Umm...Yeah, we should go down and see him then. I heard raised voices downstairs. Was there an arguement do you know?" He asked curiouslyn, not sure whether it was actually Muraki argueing, since he was so calm and compassionate usually.

Hikaru was about to leave finding her presence no longer needed then Toby asked about the arguement, "Yes. There was. Muraki said he was the leader and Father Abel didn't like it. I left before it got too bad..." Hikaru said and then, "Anyway, I'll see you downstairs for that meeting soon." She said smiling then leaving the room, putting Reiko's feathers in the quiver on her back then leaving the room shutting the door behind her. She knew what had gone on with Reiko. She decided to leave them alone, so Toby and Sabaku can find out on their own.

"Okay." Toby said and waved his goodbye to her. Appreciative of her help, despite not knowing her name or anything about her. "So...Reiko. Are you okay? What happened?" He edged towards him, sliding his fingers into their hand, not knowing that this was a slightly too affectionate action. He held their hand and gazed at them, wondering what they had gone through that he was so relunctant to tell, yet haunted them so vividely.

Immediately gaining some composure, Sabaku looked concerned. "Muraki was arguing? I cannot believe that," she said, slight harshness in her voice. "I always believed he was the leader, anyway, why would he not be?" She looked down at her hand and, to her relief, it was flesh colour again. She sighed with some relief, though she was still shaking at her legs. She turned to Reiko. "Do you feel better?" She leant forward, though she was unable to bend down to meet him and instead, she gazed, with concern, into their eyes. And, with some bravery, she took at glance at Toby, who looked tender in her eyes as he held Reiko's hand. "Hikaru, is it?" Sabaku said, looking at the girl before she left. "I shall be down there soon, I need to help Muraki... in any way I can." Truthfully, she wanted some aid on her legs and why she had collapsed.

Reiko sniffed slightly as Toby took the feather from it and placed one of his own in his blue hair, closing his eyes and taking a deep breath he nodded. He flinched a little as Toby slid his hand into the pale ones of Reiko but remained still. Opening his eyes and looking into the others, his breath shaky he answered, 'I..I went into...to a flashback...o..of my past...' Noticing the female in the room he nodded at her question and pulled on a small but fake smile. His shimmery blue eyes darted from Toby to Sabaku, quikly adding to change the subject 'Should, should we go downstairs..?'

That smile that Reiko pulled was clearly fake, but Sabaku chose to ignore that fact and she smiled back. She stood in the doorway. "Let us go, we have plenty of time to--" she was interrupted by her whole body rippling abnormally. She clenched her teeth together and her eyes shut, straightened her legs and arms and waited for a bit. "What a weird stage I'm going through," she mumbled, not sure whether she was talking to herself or not. "We have plenty of time to look around, but I think we may be missing something important," her voice was back to normal - serious yet calm. "Come." And she walked down, her eyes over her shoulder.

Toby smiled at Reiko, taking their hand and walking through the door, almost dragging them to their feet and through the hallways, bolting down the stairs and flinging them both onto a couch, landing clumsily on his front to avoid hitting his wings.
