Standing and grinning at the soothsayer, it wasn't too much longer before a loud yelp reached the Angel's sensitive ears. Puzzled, Sidriel scanned the street below him, although he didn't see which human made the noise. It took a few more minutes of scanning to locate the source of the noise. An alley across from him, a large man had pinned a smaller one against a brick building. They were barely on the street, but people were still walking past, ignoring the scene, or even worse, shaking their heads and continuing on.
Sidriel hesitated, glancing upwards. He wasn't supposed to help...he wasn't a Guardian. Still, how could he just walk away? The smaller boy clearly needed help.
The Angel hopped from the lightpost, landing in a small patch of cleared sidewalk, and folded his wings. The extent of his magical abilities came into play, and Sidriel's wings vanished. They would come back the moment Sidriel wished, but it wasn't like he could walk around humans with them on display. His grey eyes searched the ground as he broke into a jog, crossing the street.
Just inside the alley, Sidriel found what he was looking for: A weapon. Angels weren't supposed to damage humans, however, this one was clearly a Sinner, and if was to protect another human, a punishment wouldn't be set into motion. Sidriel scooped up the bottle, and lifted it high, before cracking it down on the large human's head.
It seemed rather like the man had expected to go on ignored, and because of attention being drawn into the alley, he backed away quickly. Sidriel peered at him sadly, without saying anything. The man cursed, but clearly thought better of drawing yet more attention to the alley. If enough attention was focused on him, the police would be called. People tended to get braver once someone else took the first step. This man seemed to realize this, and he darted away.
Sidriel's gaze moved to the slimmer boy. "Are you alright?" He asked, dropping the bottle unto the ground. It hadn't broken when Sidriel had hit the human, and didn't break now either, letting out a loud clunking sound. The Angel stepped towards the human, and then frowned. He couldn't 'see' anything here. It was like this human didn't exist. There was something there, but it certainly wasn't a normal human's aura. What was wrong with this person? Growing more concerned, Sidriel took another step forward. "Do you...do you need some help?"
