"Lea?" Jason murmured, surprised to see his partner. Lea focused on fending off the offensive angel. "Can you fly?" She asked, noticing his light nod.

"You aren't getting away that easy." The angel snapped, fully attacking Lea, only for his blade to cross with hers. "My mission is to exterminate you two." He stated.

Lea's eyes widen. 'An angel..hunter? When did they start that?!' She thought to herself. Jason wasn't ready to fight, he could barely handle anything other than assisting his partner! "Go to the Tree House, and wake up Marzi! Now!" She voiced in her struggle with Ghost. She could fight better if he was safe, if it was just herself she had to worry about.

Ghost pulled back his sword and thrust it at Lea once more who was staying on the defensive. Knowing she was much of a fighter, Jason was reluctant to leave her, but soon realized he wasn't helping her nor could he, so he flapped his wings and took flight.

"Target escaping, backup requested." Ghost murmured into his 'wrist watch' before striking the young shinigami. His blade slipped under the blade of her scythe and managed to leave a cut along her collar. Lea cursed under her breath and stepped back as an attempt to get some distance between them.

(feel free to have Anders or another angel come in :p or i can do a mini-timeskip lolz)

Arael blinked as the commander rinsed out his cup, then headed out. His comment also confused him, but he didn't say anything to question him. Without Anders around, he could think more freely without feeling like he was being suffocated. "Goodnight, sir." He murmured after the other one bid goodnight.

He blinked once more when Silas spoke and glanced at him, pausing. The younger could tell his mind had probably wandered back to the thoughts of the one he spoke of earlier. Areal lowered his eyes, feeling kind of guilty. "Not until now.." He murmured, glancing back up at Silas. "I know a way we can save them.. and your friend.. But it's just a legend.." He spoke softly.

He wanted to make a difference, the thought of bringing their kind and the shinigami together in unity or even saving them, was definitely eating away at the back of his mind. If this one shinigami meant so much to him, though, he'd risk the punishment to save him through that legend.
