Ah, what a noise. A dull noise mixed between something of annoyance and slight confusion. It raked against the back of the mind in a highly unpleasant way. How foul humans could be with their trill-like laughter and chipper voices. Obviously the park he had decided to stalk today was not such a positive idea. In fact, it irritated the one who was standing amongst the shade of the tall trees.

The scent of fresh pine was in the air and it flowed together with the light musk of flowers. Add the reek of happiness to it and one got a fine Spring day. A pout formed on Jett's boyish lips as he turned his dark eyes away from the happy scene of children playing. This was not why he was here. Watching this mere act of humanity was making the empty hole of where his heart should be throb with pain.

A sigh escaped his lips as he turned to walk away from such a scene. Ah, what a human action it was to sigh. Though, he could not help it when he had been on this earth for days. Walking amongst humans for hours and watching, studying, every little thing they did. These were the only creatures left that could surprise him slightly; though with each passing day they really all turned out the same.
Strange how somethings were so new and yet so familar at the same time.

Though the times were changing. Nothing was like it used to be. Not with the advances of technology in the human race. Ah, science. How lovely.

Also the more important factor was the opposite race. The goody-two-shoes Angels didn't make his job an easier. Of course with the ever waging war, the Angels had always been present and they usually left him alone. Though with his victims he was not always so lucky. Nowadays, though, the power of God seemed to be everywhere. More of these blasted creatures seemed to make contact with some of his demon brothers.

In fact, many of them had been disappearing. Which was news to his ears. The Fallen ones did not seemed phased. Though no one could really tell what those old ones were thinking. They never shared their deepest thoughts with those of his stature. No. They only discussed amongst themselves and the others were like a mere afterthought of sorts.

To be honest, humans and angels were the only thing Jett really cared about much these days; other then soul collecting of course. Yes. These races which were so like and unlike his own were the only thing that even interested Jett anymore. Even if both races did sicken him for different reasons.

At this thought, Jett brought up a hand to wipe away a few of his dark bangs that had fallen into his eyes. How ironice this entire world was.

Feeling the familiar scratch of paranoia build in the back of his mind, Jett pushed it down. No use in letting himself slip up now. Not when he was so close... he had been working in what humans referred to as 'overtime'. Not that Jett did not have all of the time in the world. Though for the last few days, he had made sure crime was at its peak in this city. Murders, suicides, robberies... petty things at the moment. Things like this were usually done by newer demons... though to Jett, they never lost their amount of fun.

Crossing a street without looking both ways, Jett walked onto a busy sidewalk and merged with the people. Giving a grin that showed his pointed teeth, he watched as some of the people passed right through him.

Hmm... perhaps a bit of thievery was the first thing on his agenda. Getting humans to make wrong decisions to get an angry little black mark against God was always fun to do. Next, he would work on multiple at a time to turn their backs against him. Something that was more of his job. Perhaps collect a tasy soul or two to feast on. At this, his dark eyes clouded and the began to lighten to a sea-green.

Yes... today would indeed prove to be fruitful.
