Keith and Demitri walked into the gym, nearly running into Alayna, both stopped, staring at her.
"Alayna" Keith said, his voice still cold. It hadn't been easy talking to Cas, but he had managed to pull it off, this time he was certain.
"Alayna, I have some good news" Demitri nodded enthusiastically.
"Angels have a very special ability. They only get to use it sparingly, and for very, very special circumstances, but it's very special" He said, shaking his head at Demitri, who, despite the sadness of the moment, appeared to be overjoyed at the prospect of being up and out of bed.
"It's true Alayna, I saw it, well heard about it" Demitri said, bouncing over to Kristen, eyes bright and shining.

"Hey" He said, wrapping his arms protectively around Kristen, kissing the back of her neck.
"Everything okay?" He asked her, more concerned about her then he was about himself. He was still grinning. Angel magic was incredible, at least in his opinion.

Alayna julted slightly, looking up to see Keith and Demitri. She quickly covered her bleeding hand, placing both behind her back. She looked from one boy to another, her eyes no longer hard and her face blank. She nodded slightly, looking skeptical at Keith. "Okay...." she said slowly, not exactly sure what the angel was getting at. Alayna rolled her eyes at Demitri as the vampire walked over to Kristen, leaving her with Keith. She wasn't mad at the angel himself, just the situation in general. Her eyes fell to the ground for a moment.


"Not exactly.." Kristen muttered. She shuddered as Demitri kissed her, and bit her lip. "Someone's in a good mood..." she said, turning to look up at him. "What up with the grin?" Kristen asked, raising an eye brow at the vampire.

"Do you want me to explain? Or would you rather just wait until tomorrow?" Keith asked, being connected to his world again, he was aware of a shift with the angeilc magic, which meant that 'it' was happening. He smiled, Alayna's brother would be back tomorrow. Thankfully angels had this ability, you could only use it once in awhile, and only with good cause, but Cas owed him, massively, so he was able to use it.

Demitri smiled.
"Angels are so cool" He said in her ear, watching Keith.
"I saw the coolest thing, seriously. It was incredible"

"I think I'll wait." Alayna murmured. She rubbed her forehead with her non-wounded hand, but it was bloody from holding the other. Alayna cursed before wrapping her hand in her shirt. "I'll meet you guys back in the room. I gotta get this wrapped.." she said quietly before walking out of the gym and down to the nurse.
She didn't bother explaining to the lady. She simply asked for a bandaid. Once her hand was cleaned and bandaged, Alayna felt a tad bit better. Her mind still felt foggy, and she was still angry, but what Keith had said didn't leave her. He had pulled more strings, no doubt about it, but she wasn't sure what it was.


"Um..." Kristen looked from Demitri to Keith. "Okay..." she mumbled, completely confused. Obviously, something happened that she missed. The next moment Kristen looked up, Alayna was gone.

Keith watched her go, smiling a bit to himself.
"I pulled some strings, if you understand" He said to Kristen, his voice soft,
"She asked me to have her brother sent home, but when I spoke to my 'friend' I hadn't known he was injured, so he died, because of me. Just now I spoke to my friend again, and because of the incident, I was able to use a power angels have, but can only rarely use. Her brother will be here tomorrow, alive and well" He explained to her.

"See? Told you angels were awesome" Demitri said, grinning. He wrapped Kristen in his arms.
"How soon?" He asked Keith, seeing as they had to plan to have another human here.
"Twelve hours, that's about how long it takes the magic to work"

Kristen's jaw nearly dropped to the floor. "Did you tell her that?" she asked, nodding to the door of the gym. "She still thinks her brother is dead." Kristen sighed as Demitri wrapped his arms around her. God did she miss this. "She's taking it really well surprisngly...I half expected her to lock herself in her room and hide in a corner..." Kristen murmured, "She was here, throwing instead." Kristen's eyes wandered over to the carved hole in the wall, and she smirked.

"She doesn't want me too" Keith said, "Besides, I think the reason she's taking it so well is that she suspects that I did something" Keith shrugged, glancing at Kristen and Demitri.
"I'm gonna go find her, see you guys later" The tall angel said, turning and disappearing from the gym.

Demitri held Kristen against him, "See you" He said to Keith, before turning his attention back to Kristen.
"You feeling alright? Do you want to go lie back down?" He asked, he wasn't ready to, but he knew she wasn't exactly feeling fantastic either.

Alayna was in Keith room, mainly because she needed her paints. She sat against the locked window, holding a hand-sized canvas as she painted. The colors were dark, and harsh, but Alayna hardly noticed. She had to get it out of her system. Sighing, Alayna pulled her hand away looking down at her painting, her eyes went hard and her shoulder fell. It looked like a forest, similar to the one in her dream, only there wasn't someone being burned at the stake. There was a small pond, only it was dark, mucky water. Alayna said and put the painting on the floor against the wall to dry before turning her eyes back out to the window.


Kristen sighed as Demitri pulled her against him. She was worried he was going to hurt himself again. "I'm not really sure how I feel right now..." Kristen mumbled, rubbing her forehead. She wasn't sure if she felt tired, or not. Or if she just felt sore. Everything seemed muddled together.

Keith stepped into his room, seeing Alayna painting. He closed the door, watching her as she set the painting aside.
"Hey" He said softly, sitting down on his bed, not next to her. He knew that she probably wouldn't want anything to do with him. He was still overjoyed about fixing this mess, but it was also hard to see her upset.
"Are you alright?" He asked, it was a stupid question, but it mattered all the same.

Demitri nodded, "Yea? Well come on, let's go to my room" He said, grinning at her and leading her from the gym. He was worried about her, and though he didn't really show it, he was fairly exahusted from being out of bed.

Alayna hardly moved as Keith came into the room. She didn't turn her attention away from the window either as he said hi. A part of her wanted to scream and cry again, but she fought it down. Her hand moved lazily to the painting now resting against the wall. "That can give you the answer better than I can." she said quietly, keeping her face towards the window.


"Alright." Kristen said, smiling and letting Demitri lead her back to his room. Once inside, Kristen let out a huff as she fell onto his bed. Rolling onto her stomach, Kristen wrapped her arms around the pillow, digging her face into slightly. It smelled like Demitri...and a bit like blood, but she tried to ignore that. She let out a deep breath; now she felt tired, and her body ached all over. God, the last time she had hurt like this.....Kristen blinked. She couldn't eve remember.

Keith sighed and glanced at the painting.
"Oh" He said, letting out another small sigh.
"Alayna, really, this will all be better tomorrow" He said, actually, glancing at the clock it would be less then that, Nicko would be appearing at about two am, which was good. He wanted to hold her, but he was a bit to terrified to do that. She might yell at him again.

Demitri sat down next to her, yawning a bit.
"Comfortable?" He teased, playing with a lock of her hair absentmindedly. He was bored, and tired, which was never a good combonation.

"If you say so..." Alayna said quietly. She sounded tired, no longer angry or cold, just tired. She sighed, resting her head agaisnt the window. Her good hand stroked her banadged one lightly as she closed her eyes. She wanted to believe Keith, more than anything. And part of her did, the other part though, kept reminding her that Nicko was dead.


Kristen chuckled, her body shaking involuntaryly as Demitri played with her hair. Her eyes went wide and she laughed. "That's never happened before..." she muttered, laughing quietly. "And yes, I'm comfortable..." she said, looking at him with a happy smile and soft eyes.

Keith sighed, "It will be" He said softly, the magic was increasing, he was suprised she couldn't feel it, but he understood that she was probably trying not to think of that part of her right now. He shifted, the intensity of the magic was making him uncomfortable. Soon, it would be soon, a lot sooner then he thought. "Cas" He grumbled, what was that idiot guardian angel up too right now.

Demitri looked at her.
"What's never happened before?" He asked curiously, smiling. "Glad that you're comfortable" He said, grinning. He was pretty comfortable as well, just being with her relaxed him,.

Alayna rubbed her forehead. Great. Now she had a headache. Sighing, Alayna held her head and closed her eyes again. "Did Kristen and Demitri go back down to my room?" she asked, thinking she needed to lie down. This headache was turning into a mirgrane, and it wasn't letting up.


"Never mind." Kristen mumbled. Demitri must not have noticed. She took a deep breath, letting it out slowly and closing her eyes. God was she tired. "What time is it?" she mumbled.

"Yea I think so. You can sleep in my bed, I can go back to Demitri and your room" He said, sighing softly. He frowned, noticing that she was rubbing her head.
"It's magic Alayna, you have to block it out' He said softly, shaking his head.

Demitri glanced at the clock.
"Uh, it's nearly midnight, go to sleep love" He said softly, rubbing her back absentmindedly.

"You don't have to leave..." Alayna mumbled as she stood up. Her head spun and she reached out for the wall to steady herself. She let out a small groan, holding her head again. It felt like there was a ten ton rock on her head, forcing her into the ground. "Magic? At this hour..." Alayna muttered, taking her steps slowly to Kristen's bed and sitting down with a huff.


"Holy..." Kristen covered her mouth and dug her face into Demitri's pillow. No wonder she was so tired. "Alright. But don't leave the room." She said, narrowing her eyes teasingly before closing them and sighing.

Keith stood up, swaying a bit, though he was used to it, the amount of magic was getting to him. He walked over to her, supporting her and leading her back to the bed.
"Yea, it's angelic magic. That's why you're feeling it so strongly. It's flowing through me, that's why it's so strong on here" He explained, rubbing at his head again.

"I won't" Demitri said, glancing at the clock. According to Keith, Alayna's brother would be here in two hours, how he was getting here, he was unsure, but it would be something to see. He sighed and settled himself on the bed, cradling Kristen gently against him.

Alayna tried not to flinch as Keith helped her over to the bed. Now she believed him. The magic was practically raidiating off of him, and it hurt. She sighed, laying back on the bed and pulling her arms away from it. "I..can't block it..." she muttered, feeling herself being pushed into sleep. "Too much..." Alayna sighed, her eyes closing and her head tilting slightly as she passed out.


Kristen hardly stirred as Demitri picked her up and held her against him. She moved slightly once in his arm, digging herself closer gently. She smiled in her sleep, feeling safe and content in the vampire's arms and falling asleep instantly.

Keith winced as she passed out. "No point in leaving the room now" He grumbled, covering her with the blanket and sighing. He sat down and rubbed his head a bit. He had no deisre to move, the magic was flowing out of him, and it was begining to exahust him. His eyes flickered for a moment and he passed out on the floor.

Demitri sighed and rubbed his fingers absently up and down Kristen's back. He yawned and closed his eyes, but he knew he couldn't sleep, but he was enjoying just spending some time with her.

{{Skip to morning? Or do you have plans? xD}}

OOC:: Skip a few hours ahead =]

{{Alrighty!}}

Kristen stirred, her mental clock blarring in her ears. She sighed, her eyes flickering but never actually opening. Moving her casted arm on impulse, Kristen let out a held back scream of pain. "Damnit!" Kristen hissed, sitting up from Demitri's arms to fix her own. She stared at it with hate before she noticed her friends signatures. Letting out a deep breath, Kristen rubbed her face with her better arm.


Alayna could feel the heat of the sun, streaking through the windows. She could even picture how it would look if she opened her eyes. That was something she couldn't do though. She could barely move. Her mind was numb and still in a sleep like mode, but it wasn't a deep sleep. The magic from last night had worn her out, and her mind was still recovering.

Keith shifted on the floor.
"Urgh" He groaned, feeling sick. He sighed and sat up, his head spinning as his head spun.
He glanced around, it was early, glancing at the clock he noticed at the time.
"He must be here" Keith said, wincing as Cas blasted into the room, blinding him with golden light.
"Keith?"
"Down here"
"What are you doing down there?"
"Pass out" Keith replied, accpeting his friend's hand as he was pulled to his feet.
"Well, special delivery for an Alayna" Castiel said, waving his hand and presenting a tall, human.
"Alayna" Keith said, nudging her shoulder. "Wake up love"

Demitri noticed Kristen shifting.
"You awake love?" Demitri asked, noticing her hiss of pain. He glanced at her casted arm, it probably hurt a lot. He glanced down at the signatures, grinning. His was a bit smudged, not that he cared right now.

Alayna's mind spun as Keith nudged her, and she was able to open her eyes. She took a deep breath, shaking her head. "What...?" she asked groggingly.
Nicko chuckled. "Still not a morning person I see." He said, folding his arms over his chest. He had the same chocolate brown hair that Alayna did, only his eyes were a hazel green. His body was toned, showing off the amount of time he spent working out.
Alayna groaned. Great, now she was hearing Nicko, as if it wasn't bad enough what happened yesterday. "Keith, I'm going crazy..." she muttered, pressing her hands to her eyes. Nicko looked from Cas, down to the angel Alayna was referring too.
"I'm guessing you didn't tell her..." he muttered, smirking.


Kristen turned her head to look at Demitri. "No. I'm still deep in sleep." she said, laughing and shaking her head. She massaged her wounded shoulder, inhaling through her teeth. "God I can't wait till I can get this peice of crap off..." she muttered, shaking her head.

Keith smiled.
"She wouldn't let me" He said with a casual shrug.
"Alayna, he's real, this is that weird, angel gift I wsa telling you about, remember?" He said, standing next to Nicko.
"Keith by the way" He introduced himself. He couldn't help grinning, "Alayna, seriously" He nudged her again, he didn't blame her for not believing him.

Demitri laughed.
"Come on, I want to meet Alayna's brother" He said, sliding off the bed with far to much energy. He winced a bit, but was already feeling a ton better. He could also scent the human from two rooms over, and he was listening to the conversation going on.
"Alayna doesn't believe her brother is actually here"
