Taro gold eyes and hair were not as glowy as they had been before. He was angry at himself, angry for making Angela go through what she had gone through. His tight green tank top seemed to hang more loosely than before, and his proud wings seemed to also fold loosely as he sat in a large tree in the middle of the forest, one leg hanging over the edge and the other folded in toward his chest. The light shone through the trees onto the Shao-lin angel, making some warm glow return, but it was a small glow, not enough to notice very well.

He head was lowered to his shaking hands as he thought to himself...

How could I have been so naive?

It's my fault... she deserves better...

He closed his eyes and leaned his head against the trunk of the tree and sighed, almost waiting to hear the angelic voice of his angel.

(Walking through the forest, Angela's thoughts went back to a time when her father was tracking her in a similar fashion to this one. It was when they'd first met, back home. It felt kind of tragic. Angela had gone through a very long life, not knowing who she was, how she came to be, or why her age was stuck at 17. Then, she had finally met the one person she thought she might help her understand; the man she was sure was her father. Her mother, her real mother, was Joe Hockner's first girlfriend. He'd even propsed to marry her. Unfortunately, she was taken over and killed by an ancient being whose name meant "Calamity from the Skies". Somehow, though, Angela had been born from her anyway, created from her and Joe...almost out of thin air. When she explained as much to Joe, who never knew, he felt guilty. He always blamed himself for the incident. As for Angela, she'd been discouraged by their first meeting, because she'd been looking for answers and Joe couldn't believe that she could even exist. He'd tracked Angela to a forest when she left...and they fought until she understood that it was better that she'd lived her life without knowing her father. Because of it, she wasn't tainted by the Dark Power... Of course, finding Taro in here was a whole lot easier. She could sense the moping a mile away.)

Angela: I hope this all hasn't been too much for him. After Teo, I thought I'd reached my breaking point. Even Shuiichi had about reached the breaking point.

(When Shuiichi Minamino, AKA Kurama, reaches a breaking point and loses his cool, it is not a good thing. Angela didn't know about Kurama, though... Anyway, she could see Taro now, his back to her from where she stood. As she approached, she spoke to him...)

Angela: So, are you gonna tell me what's on your mind or do I have to read it off instead?

(This was a bluff. She was an Empath, and a Telepath.)

Taro heard her voice and his glow seemed to return slightly, "Angela? Angela... I... I'm sorry... I really am." He glided down from the tree and landed a bit away from her. He smiled softly, but sadly, "I made you worry..." He wasn't sure what to think now, all he could really think was that she had come, even though Taro though she wouldn't have.

He stepped toward her, "You came... but why? I mean, I feel so ashamed... for making you go through all that..." Tears came to his eyes slowly, but he wiped them away. He stepped closer until he was only a few feet away from her.

My angel... how can I make your pain go away?

(Seeing him trip all over himself like this, Angela wondered how long she should wait before making him stop. Taro really had to start thinking outside the box about problems like this. How could he be at fault when he didn't kidnap himself? Obviously, the ones who DID the deed were to be punished in the worst way. Yet Taro was still being Taro, thinking himself responsible. Well, it was time to put a stop to that.)

Angela: Hold on a second, Taro. You didn't make me do anything. None of it was your fault.

(That should slow him down. Angela never wavered for a second. She had had many long years of self-made training to understand and repair the wild emotions of the people around her. And in all this time, only Teo's case had put her off so much that her own control wavered. But Taro...well... Taro was Taro.)

Angela: Other people had to be asked, rallied to the cause. They didn't have to ask me. I was in. I chose to go through the things I do; for you, for Teo, for any of my friends. Don't feel guilty about something like that.

Taro smiled slightly, "I... I can't help it... I guess I feel like everythings my fault, or something like that."

That's how it was... back then...

He looked at her, and his glow returned fully, "At first, I thought you'd be mad, because I can't take care of myself... I always have to have someone there." He chuckled a bit and rubbed the back of his neck, "Thank you, Angela... I don't know what I'd do without you." He gentle took Angela into his arms and hugged her, wrapping his wings around them.

(Angela let herself be taken in, remaining quiet so as not to spoil the moment. She felt more relaxed, especially after calming the woes of Taro's mind. He always seemed to blame himself, but sometimes you've gotta learn to let go and live on. Her father let go, after he made sure he couldn't be controlled by the evil power within him.)

Angela: Ya just gotta remember that you can't blame yourself for something you can't control...

(She had blamed herself for some of the things in Teo's life, some of his problems and terrible accidents. She'd thought some of it was her fault... It wasn't, but she was no less willing to see him through, if anyone else she cared for.)

Taro smiled, "Angela... I don't know what to say... I... I never knew that there was a girl like you... an angel, like you... no wonder your name is Angela." He smiled sweetly and looked down at her, remembering the first time they met, and how much they got teased.

He looked at the sky, "Hey... you wanna go for a ride?"

(Angela had to arch her eyebrow at the angel comment. She'd told him once that she didn't want to be called that. It didn't fit her persona and she really didn't like the sound of it. And after having seen Angel a few times, she decided that being called that name was definitely out. Besides...)

Angela: A ride? Sure. Only not the one you were planning... B)

(She reached into her pocket and pulled out something that jingled a bit. They were keys. She had keys to a car. On a closer inspection, they appeared to be keys to an EXPENSIVE car. An Aston Martin. There was probably only one student on the campus that had one of those: Jake Mulcahy. But this meant...that she 'liberated' them? Borrowed, perhaps? Angela grins.)

Angela: I ain't no angel.

OOC: Didn't see that coming, did ya?

Taro looked at the keys, "Wow... that's cool, Angela. Great, let's go with your idea!" He smiled and hugged her, then let go, "Lead the way."

I ain't no angel.

Taro said under his breath, "That's what you think..." Then he smiled sweetly, "How'd you get the car? They seem to be quite rare."

(She began to lead the way to the car, to a car belonging to Jake Mulcahy. It wasn't too odd that Jake had a car. He saved the life of a millionaire Meta....from himself. In that, Jake had raked in alot of cash and a nice car. Angela explained how SHE got it, which in turn was her explanation for not being an angel.)

Angela: How did I get the car? Well, you see...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Everyone knew aboout Jake's car, at least a little. He had the only Aston Martin in the country. What they didn't know was what I had scoped out. Jake's car wasn't just any car. He'd really souped it up into a first-class spy-car!

(The Aston Martin was of a silvery-gray color, but there were rumors it could change that color on command. There were three things Angela liked in life that she never lost her love of: Guns, cars, and kicking ass. Since she had the old Bonanza with her now, she didn't need a gun. And of course, she wa a queen of kicking ass. So, all she really wanted was a chance at some great wheels. It was a matter of fact that Jake diidn't actually drive his car often. He could fly faster, MUCH faster. However, like any James Bond kind of car, this one was designed with a terminal burgular alarm. Terminal...for the burglur. Fortunately, Angela knew how to handle this situation. All she had to do was get the keys...from Jake's room...)

They could only be in Jake's room. After all, what place was safer? No one could go in Jake's room without trouble. It had evil spirits, a junkyard robot, and - last I checked - a rather crazy tabby cat, and I don't mean Garfield. ©

(Minutes later, Angela stood outside Jake's room. She knew he wasn't in. Upon trying to open the door, she found it waedged tight and sealed, but trying a little too hard accidentally forced it off the hinges.)

Angela: Whoops. Uhhhh....I can fix that!

(The place was relatively clean here, but there was still that sense of the room being larger than the space alotted to it. A funny thing... There was evidence of another person staying in here from time to time. Nobody was here NOW, but Angela saw the biggest sword in her whole life...leaning against the wall near Jake's extra swords. It had a seven foot blade... On a desk nearby, Angela saw a picture in a frame. It was the picture of a student she had seen from time to time, but not really that often. NOW she understood.)

Angela: Jake and Marina Bluemoon... I never would have guessed.

(Even though the two of them were excellent warriors, she wouldn't have expected Kari Bluemoon's sterner sister to go for the wiles of this guy. Then again, Jake reminded her of her father some...and Uncle Zero...and Zero's son, Drake.... Angela blinked. Come to think of it, Drake looked alot like Jake. Could Jake really be...? No. That was ridiculous. Drake and Phoenix were so close that... nevermind, back to business. Where was that robot? There was this noise in the room that sounded like...accordian practice? After searching around a bit, that robot of junk and trash was playing an accordian....to the cat, who was into some catnip. Angela saw a note by the bag it came in.)

Although it doesn't effect us Moonians in quite the same way, I thought your cat might appreciate that our brand of catnip is finer-quality breed. - Marina

(They were both nuts, at least a little. Angela found the keys on Jake's sword-rack, hanging next to his claymore. That claymore... It looked almost like her father's... She tested it. It had been given basic sword-hardening enchantments to prevent breakage and a supernatural weight, so it weighed almost as much as that bigger blade looked to weigh. Angela left after that and was easily able to get into the car and drive it off.)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

(And now, they stood by that car, and boy was it a beauty!)

Angela: I was able to get the keys easily enough, but I saw some things that make me kind of think... Jake seems to be alot like some of the people I know, people I'm related too. I'm starting to wonder if he's maybe related to my family somehow.

Taro smiled at Angela nervously...

She's a wonder...

He looked at the car, "So... where do you plan we go?" His wings stretched out slightly then folded back in, "And how am I going to fit my wings in there?" He had a point, his wings were huge.

(She noticed the slight nervous feeling off of Taro, but rather ignored it at the moment. Angela was more focused on the problem with his wings. Yeah... There was a slight problem with that. She silently wondered why Jake didn't get a car with a convertable top or anything, but didn't dwell on it. Still, it was a cool car, so she thought of what would work for it and Taro.)

Angela: I'm not sure where you'd like to go, but uhhh....maybe you could just let your wings go into the back seat area?

Taro thought for a seond and nodded, "Sounds good, I'll be able to stretch out!" He looked from the car to her and smiled lovingly, "Angela... I was thinking..." He blushed and looked away from her, "Do you think that... we're old enough... for... um... something really serious?"

He put his hands in his pocket and played with something in the pocket, "Cause... when your ready... I'd like at ask you something."

(When you're an experienced empath, very few secrets and intentions can really be kept from you. You can tell if someone's ready to kill someone from across a room or feel nervous tension right up close without trying. To some, it was a pain. To others, it was strangely foreign. To Angela, it was the best way to know what's coming. And, for all her own empathic ability, she was glad that Taro wasn't an empath himself. She had a pretty good guess as to what he was going to ask...)

Angela: Ask me about it later. I wanna ride!

OOC: Just one question....

Where's a good place to go all Evel Kinevil?

(((ooc not sure, I'm guessing Downtaown Shinjuku or Kabuki-Cho District ooc)))

Taro's blush disappeared and he nodded, "Right, same here." He went to the other side of the car and waited for Angela to unlock the car, then got in and let him wing stretch out in the back, "So... um... by later, when do you mean?"

(((ooc ah! so crappy! I hate it when my post look so small, I guess I'm at a writers block ooc)))

(The car unlocked upon Angela pressing the little button on the remote device. It also deactivated the bomb. She and Taro got in, belted up, and whatever else you do before you go full-throttle. The interior of his car was common to any Aston Martin, and common to any spy car. That is to say...there were little switches and knobs for things like "Machine Guns" or "After-Burners" or even "Surface-To-Air Missles". This would probably make Taro sweatdrop. Fortunately, Angela hadn't made a single move for the red button marked "Arm Defenses", which had to be the master switch.)

Angela: I think a drive through town'll be fine. Let's talk after that.

(She starts the car and hits the gas. Jake's car revs and MOVES!!)

OOC: I'll make a post for this Downtown.
