Yawning softly as she lays in bed alone, without her lover. She has yet to see him even after the letter she sent as it told him where she was. Perhaps the things he has to do was important which she wasn't going to get mad over it. Her blonde medium hair was a mess as it mopped against the pillows while she was asleep. Twisting and turning with frustration in her dreams. There she laid silently asleep with a peaceful facial expression in her deep sleep. Rather or not her dreams were truly peaceful was in question and no one could know unless they were her.

This was of course before she started to walk through the streets alone. Baron was doing whatever he wished to do which she got them to split the hotel room - giving them their own side. It was silly, but Arisa later found it necessary that their rooms were separated. 'Wonder if I'll find that mystery person here today....' she wondered as she continued on going. Today, she wore black short-pants with ties on the ends of the legs. Black sneakers so when she trains she had a sturdy grip of the ground. For her shirt she wore her casual white tank top that fitted her fit and womanly body. Sure her breasts weren't as big as they use to be, but her larger hips and greater assets made up for it. Her stomach was more fit and her curves were even curvaceous in its own glory. The white tank top was tucked into her pants as the pants had a dark brown belt with a flower winged belt. The people around her gazed upon her beauty and into her sun lit eyes - unique eyes only set for her from the heavens. They had no pupils, non-tainted by the darkness that was not needed.

Arisa looked around, the area was lit up by the sun. The cobblestones were shining as if they had grease on them, shined to the baldness of the grazing material. Her foot steps couldn't be heard like the women who were wearing dress shoes of black or any color. She remembered the night of when her and Baron went to some club. The area was covered in smoke of grey and toxic air of ecstasy and despair. She wore something like shorts of black leather, hangovers that connected to a white crop top that showed her belly button. In short story, she devoured a woman's neck, but that was all the drugs right? It was actually that candy made body that she was eating, devouring and gnawing upon.

The woman that Baron saw was her, but not her at the same time. So what did that mean exactly? It was a mystery, but before she exited out of that hotel room, she had to get ready with a shower and perhaps something to bring out such as food or a smoothie. She loved smoothies as every smoothie was different. There were fruit ones, iced ones, druggie ones, vege ones and so many more on that very long list that she didn't really care to write down - the details. Her eyes of golden suns gazed in the mirror that was against the door. ''I feel like I'm getting old, but I keep getting younger...'' she spoke to herself as she then walked out of the bathroom with her clothes on.

Slowly she walked to the kitchen to open the fridge, get some oranges and once again - like always, she squeezed the juices to make some as it was delicious. Juice was great, mostly homemade with some ice in it. Yawning softly with a stretch her full glossed pink lips parted to breathe slowly as she walked towards the elevator with her glass of juice. 'Time for a walk I suppose.' she thought and waited for the elevator to go down. The music was boring, but that was the usual. 'Perhaps I can talk to the book keeper about changing it...' she thought once more and then saw the door open. With a grip on her juice and her other hand dangling against her side, she walked to the door. Thankfully, the door opened by itself and truly she didn't expect to see what she saw next.

She saw a famliar face not far from her as she was a few steps perhaps away. ''Alisa?!'' she spoke surprised while having her left hand still gripping her covered orange juice. ''How have you been?'' she smiled motherly and spoke with her soft motherly voice that could tame children and even animals if she wanted to. She missed having that power, the power of nature and the closeness she had with nature. The embrace she had with everything. She sighed softly as she kept her distance though. Alisa might not remember her eyes nor voice so she didn't wish to alarm the woman around the same human age.

The area was blazed by the sun light that the sun gave off on its daily course. She wondered how hot the sun really was and perhaps she'll never find out without of course the death of frying like a pig within the turn-over coven over a fire. Arisa's hair of golden blonde locks was pushed up with a material that branded with a clip. The clip itself had a bird of gold on it and diamonds for its eyes. She stood tall of her same height of six foot four with her hour glass modeled body. She wasn't sure on how this was going to go with Alisa since they haven't seen each other since the day of that mission.

She smiled happily hearing Alisa saying her name as it felt longer than months even - same goes with Noel though. ''Did you get my letter then?'' she spoke happily. She leaned over, hand still holding her covered cup of orange juice and the other on her knee. Her sweet smile was angelic and it was a pro of being herself. If she didn't get her letter then she wondered what the woman was doing here. She stood up straight and tall with a small hunch as it felt tiresome to stand up straight all the time. She wasn't a soldier. Never will she be, but if anyone of her friends or her lover needed her, she will be there.

''Haha.~'' she laughed as she used her free hand to scratch the back of her head. ''I'm alright, just been through a few things and thought to go out to get some food to take with me to train maybe.'' she explained and put down her hand that scrated the back of her head to look at her friend once more. 'Wait..' she thought and scanned her outfit. ''Whoa! New outfit huh?'' she spoke now with curiosity. If anyone knew anything about Arisa, it was that she was always curious of new things and new people - if they seemed interesting. ''Do anything special or is it just a design of nothingness?'' she joked with a smile. She studied it as she leaned forward again. Her body leaned left and then right with her eyes as they wandered on the outfit. She was about a foot close as she did this. Her golden sun eyes lit up as she liked it. With that she shot up to stand semi-straight and looked at her. ''It's very pretty.~'' she spoke happily and softly. ''You wish to join me?'' she spoke and smiled happily.

Her eyes looked at her friend who hasn't changed a bit and her? She changed about four times or so since they met upon each other's sight the first time. She also 'died' once as well beforehand though. She still remembers hearing the chimes, the shackles of the golden tool that they jingle with a dance at the shrines of eternity at Sin. She didn't get the traditional death sending as her body changed, her soul was the same yet added as a whole new part of her became born. She didn't know the details as she doesn't even know who the hell she is or was.

She stood there awing the girl and her outfit that looked like some kendo instructor or student even as she had a skirt like some school girl. It didn't really bother her any, but beside the outfit Alisa did answer her. She smiled normally and casually as she heard her say that she did find her letter. 'Does that mean Noel is here too?!' she thought worrisome and hopefully. Her heart was pounding fast like some hummingbird having some spazzem, which is quite the heart pace. She almost wanted to faint at the thought as she has missed her dear beloved all so much. Her eyes of golden suns gazed at the woman's blood colored stones as they shined due to the light above them.

Alisa questioned finally about the body change. 'What do I say? The truth?' she softly thought as a worrisome expression was painted across her face. She looked nervous yet more worried. ''Well...'' she started and then turned away towards the market area where they were to get something to eat. No one should train under an empty stomach nor too full. With that in mind she was going to only get a few things. A 'few' things. ''I suppose you could say it was painful. The sun sort of beamed its' flames and glory towards me as I then curled up. I felt every bone in my body crack rather they became smaller or larger bones. The muscles were quite torn and a spa was great for it. It wasn't that bad since this was the third time the sun decided to say ''It's time to change you.''. It happened when I... well... nevermind that.'' she spoke as she was going to tell the story of when the Arisa she knew semi-died. Her smile was genuine and she took a drink of her sweet cold orange juice.

The Gods and goddesses seem to have some messed up humor since they decided to choose her as one of their angels/Seraphims. Arisa knew she wasn't the only there, she couldn't be. She was too much chaotic good though so perhaps that was why. They were continuing to walk among the streets of Crocus towards the markets that had stalls of food. Rather or not it was good food was in question. Her large hips swayed while her flawless fair skin shined like sweet cream colored pearls shining by the beam of the element of light - her element. How many were there to be? Seraphims. She only saw them in books and now herself after so many months she thought she was going to see more.

Her eyes cornered to look at Alisa if she followed and walked with her side-by-side. ''A sword too huh?~'' she teased. Her heart was sad since she had Yoru, a beautiful darkened sword. That sword - after research, killed many vampires, lycans and the such. It was sad that after she found that out it went missing. Who stole it? Arisa was curious about this as well. 'Oh Yoru... you were so beautiful, mostly with red on it.' she thought some what crazed. She shook her head and looked forward once more. ''I can't wait for you to show me. Perhaps someday I'll have something to call my own? To fight with that is... Like a lot of people have these companions and none ever came to me... Am I not loving enough? Passionate?'' she questioned out loud and turned towards Alisa while not paying attention to where she was walking. ''Why or how did you get one? It just came to you, yes?'' she wondered and turned back. Right at that second she tripped over an uneven cobbled stone that tripped her shoes. Swiftly she landed on her face in despair as her heart started to beat slowly. She felt so alone when Noel wasn't around and even with Alisa around sometimes, she missed him so much. Perhaps too much some could say.

The stone felt cold against her face that now had a scrap on it, but it didn't really affect her much. She was saddened, too saddened to even care. Everyone and their fancy stuff... She wanted one too... One that was pretty and looked good on her. A companion that followed and loved her - one that will easily follow her whim or even had the same views. Envy was aboard the train. Her eyes lowered half-way as her golden eyes dimmed a little. It was only a second since she fell and she already thought of all this as her mind kept going and going with no stops. 'I better get up I suppose...' she thought and pushed herself up and bent her knees to even herself. Her legs pushed themselves up straight so she stood up straight. She smiled fake but seemed real. ''I'm all okay.~ Haha.~'' she laughed with that smile. She turned away and walked towards the market, looking around. Arisa wondered if the people around here had special things too... Sometimes she saw married couples with their fancy rings and people with cool companions, friends, pets... whatever they wish to call them. 'It's alright to be mad at them... To hate them. They look happy, don't they? You'll never be happy unless you have their life, their stuff... everything.' two voices synced as it spoke in her head. Some could say it was greed and envy or even other things, but she still didn't know.

It was like some alarm to her though as these thoughts and voices were random and had no clue about them. She felt disgusted that the people were happy married, children even... and a companion/pet?! 'Ugh...' she spoke and felt her heart beat from her chest with the free hand (the one not holding the orange juice). The orange juice seemed like it was going to get warm soon and warm juice did not taste the best. Luckily she drank it all before continuing on their 'little' walk. ''What shall we have then?'' she questioned out loud as she ignored the small fall in general. She didn't want to act like she was in pain after something so small. She had some pain tolerance - more than some other people and more than regular people.

Arisa smelled fresh bread, some meat of ham and bacon or perhaps it was just bacon. Bacon had some amazing smell to it - mostly if it was fresh and cooked! With bacon she didn't like all that grease on it. Rinsing bacon with cold water takes the extra stuff off which grease is bad for health anyways. She walked all girly-like in a dress kind of way towards a certain stall that had sandwiches and donuts balls covered in sugar and filled with sweet cream. ''Morning.~'' she spoke, bowed her head and looked at all the stuff that she could get out of this one tiny stall. There were so many options to making a sandwich in which could be perfect.

Breads of all kind with seeds, without seeds, with cheese, without cheese and jalapenos even! She took a deep breather to calm herself down so she didn't have some food high from just gazing upon it. her gluttony really was speaking right now as she thought of the details of each thing which didn't take long- but it felt like it was taking so long. She imagined someone picking off the grains with some machine or magic. One-by-one they plucked as it took many to make one thing of bread. It didn't take just that though as it took yeast as well. It was a weird name since there was also some disease named 'Yeast'. 'Ew...' she thought and shook her head as she tried to get that imagine out of her thoughts. There was also flower which also came from the plant she mentioned earlier. She wondered on how many factories it took to make bread for this Country since the town she lived in made their own stuff with no factory.

'Not everything can be like the town...' she stated a fact to her own thoughts as she crossed her arms against her chest, squishing them against her own skin. Her eyes of golden dimmed lights gazed upon the food choices still. The jalapenos were great, mostly the fresh ones with the juice from them still inside. It wasn't that spicy, but it gave good flavor to different foods. Growing out of the ground, several peppers are stocked on the 'family' stems that come from a single seed. It was quite unique for one seed to create so many. Imagine if humans or any race could do that. The population because of it was obviously going to be crazy, but thankfully she didn't have to worry about that as humans need two to create one or at most ... well a lot. She wanted a child, perhaps two, but no more than that. Anyone with more than five children was sort of messed up in her opinion.

People tend to slice the jalapenos in leveled sections that they then stuck in a jar with other jalapenos which adds a question; Do they add water to it to make the juice? The peppers don't create juice nor have juice when they are created nor when you cut them. So many questions, but never answers. It seems to be that way, but for now she had to pick what kind of sandwich she wanted. What did she all want on her sandwich anyways? There were so many sweet and delicious things that she could get, but she maybe should see what Alisa wants.. Yes! ''Hold on!'' she told him and didn't mind if someone went ahead of her as she stepped a couple of steps to walk towards Alisa. ''Do you even want sandwiches?'' she wondered and chuckled. Her stomach was hungry so she didn't care where they went, but her stomach growled as if she could eat any food that these markets had. Some markets had some good stuff and some had some bad stuff, but how could you tell which one had some disease or some nasty shit that'll make you sick and perhaps make a human die? It was good to know as some humans were disgusting, but it wasn't just humans either. She remembered that in some other form of time she thought about how they got bacon with the whole cutting of the pig and all, but bacon is amazing and wouldn't feel bad at all for it dying for the good of her hunger as she saved other people of her own kind - sounds racist, doesn't it?

Arisa waited for Alisa's answer as she could smell the freshness of onions. It has the cousin of thee garlic, shallot, leek, chive, and onions from Sin which are apparently different for some reason. She didn't question the logic, but she did search a lot about with all the free time in the world til she did some mission or walked about with some friends like right now! Arisa didn't care what people thought of that as she did this for her own self. The foods had so many factors that were interesting. Onions are part of diets ever since man kind existed or so they said in the book. Other things that were factors in the book were also stating other things... Arisa waited for her dear friend's response to what food she wanted.

Before the whole tripping on her face accident, she heard Alisa talk about how she just bought it in some store that appeared to have some legendary armor. Arisa wondered more about it as she was some sort of researcher. Her heart was telling her to don't worry about questioning it and so she kept quiet about it. Alisa believed that Arisa will someday find something for herself and she'll be able to buy it. 'You can't buy companions... They come to you I believe...' she thought and then the tripping happened, but instead as she was tripping forward she was caught, blushing as she was against her squishy skin and softness like pillows as Alisa wasn't all muscle like how men are. The chest area was still squishy and soft like pillows themselves. She coughed slightly as she straightened up herself and continued on with the sandwich process as described beforehand. She listened to Alisa's word of passion. There was that word again... She chuckled with a small huff. ''Alisa please.~ You know the only passion that does anything to me, is from you know who.~'' she spoke rather alluring and a smirk to tease back. She turned towards the stall. ''Wonder how he is by the way...'' she spoke and then tried to change subject with the power of sandwiches.

''Alright! A sandwich we'll have!'' she spoke happily and got in line. There was a little girl who couldn't make up her mind. Dear her. She waited patiently with a calm breather and relaxed. She already threw away the cup she had with orange juice in it so she was going to get something else to drink. After the girl got out of the damn way, Arisa stepped up. ''Hello again.~ I wish to have a ham and cheese sandwich for my friend here and I'll have a lettuce, turkey, bacon and onion sandwich with some mayo, salt and pepper on it. For drinks, I'll have four cold water bottles.'' she spoke happily. The man was so cheerful and with that he slowly made the food. She patiently looked around, every move of the man that he made as he made the sandwiches. She didn't really trust people on the market since most people don't use gloves (gross). She shook her head and saw him put them both in a paper clean bag and another for her waters. ''Here you go ma'am.'' he spoke in a bearish manly way.

"One second!'' she spoke breathing heavily for a second as she reached in her pocket on the left butt side. She reached for some money and then handed it over to the man. He nodded, she grabbed her stuff and turned towards Alisa. ''Alright. Let's get this done.~'' she spoke happily and walked through the crowd of people and towards the forest area. People loved to train there and so they were of course going there. The area was so clean, the trees were growing slowly once again - enough for there to be some leafs. As they walked the path they saw the perfect area with a dirt-like area of about twenty meters. ''This is perfect.'' she spoke  and put down their stuff on the ground, covered with the bags so nothing ruins their food. ''Shall we start now or eat the sandwiches real quick?'' she wondered as she swift turned to Alisa.

Her stomach growled as she waited for Alisa to answer as it was starting again. 'Shut up... You'll get human food and you'll deal with it.' she spoke in her mind as if she was speaking to some other entity within her. She listened to her beloved friend and the answer was of course what she said earlier. It was better to eat before training and that was a grand idea, right? She didn't really know as she wasn't a doctor. That really reminded her of that talk, that night, that time as it was the worst day in her life - other than that night she died, her soul, that body. Everything was inflated as lies, the truth the facts the fiction just blew up in her face. It harmed, it made peace as everything had it's Yin and Yang. That reminded her of Grim of how he was like that in her opinion. She didn't feel right talking about Grim with other people as she didn't know details about him. It's not because she thinks wrong of him, but it's because if he was someone possibly from a guild that harmed people, she didn't wish to get him in trouble. Truly, the only reason she would do anything is if he harmed her best friend or lover. No one really got up to that level besides her lover, Noel and her one best friend, Alisa.

She grabbed her sandwich and sat beside Alisa rather she sat or stayed standing up. Unwrapping the wrap the kind man used, she threw it in the bag that had everything in it once before. As she took a bite she felt relaxed and soon she was done with it as the growling devoured her stomach slowly. It was like that vision of her gnawing on that woman's flesh except it was her stomach eating itself. She relaxed a little till Alisa was done and then stood up. ''Alright. I'll get about so far away.~'' she spoke as she jogged about twenty meters. 'Yes... This is good.'' she spoke and then sighed by taking a deep breather. Her aura glowed a golden as the sun shined upon her soul and body as if the sun, the holy gods were being called. The materialized tattoo next glowed as it formed wings of two, fluffy and white. They flapped as Arisa hovered at first only a foot. ''Still not use to this flying, but I suppose this is the only way to get use to it?'' she spoke loud enough for Alisa to hear. She was worried, but it was Alisa... She wouldn't go try hard on her right away, right?...

Spoiler:

Her eyes of golden suns gazed upon Alisa and her armor as it formed. She wanted to see what this could do, a special armor made by being bought - simple. Arisa believed that it should come to you - anything and everything unless it was money of course! She felt her wings, the feathers feel the wind go through the strands of each and every feather. It felt as if it was her hair, but her blonde hair was all neatly tied up as she was hovering from the ground. She smiled at Alisa as she was prepared to move - rather it be flying up higher or to the side. ''I know you're faster than me. Haha~ I should see if I can keep my sweet distance from you, my dear friend.~'' she teased with a smile. ''Although, if this was real fighting... I would take this more seriously.'' she spoke. 'And I wouldn't be me....' she thought as her heart pained just thinking of that. It didn't take long to have small talk, if she moved while she was talking then Arisa would make her move immediately, but not making it obvious.

Her hands were ready as they became sweaty and twitchy. Her heart was racing fast paced as she swiftly flung her hand towards Alisa who was within the 20 meters, taking only a second to beam at her. Before that her fingers were in a form of a gun - both of them as she giggled doing so. A beam came from the right as she wanted to try this out as it happened after the fling. Something was increasing inside of her, like some adrenaline. ''Hahah.~'' she laughed while the beam went towards her. This was like some cops and robbers type of deal, but for fun and play. She needed to control this before it become rather bad. She couldn't stop it as she watched from her eyes and truly feeling some weird feel that made her want to do more... More chaos and more training, more fighting and more of this!

Arisa watched the woman fly up, using her jets and for some reason she was doing this up to ten meters while she herself was only hovering a foot off the ground. She giggled as she saw the speed. 'Quite nice...' she thought and wondered if she will someday get to fly that fast. She watched for no more than a second if that even as she dashed back six meters more and into the trees. She felt the shadows devour her light, but nonetheless she saw Alisa in the sky. Guessing she still was going to stay about ten meters up in the sky she on the other hand was now on the ground with her wings no longer motioning to fly.

While hiding in the dark forest yet still semi-in the entrance of it, she formed a rather meter disc or light that was flat yet large of a 1meterx1meter. 'Welp, here we go.~' she thought playfully, walked out quickly to throw it at Alisa who was ten meters in the sky. If she moved then she motioned it with her hand to follow Alisa to where she was flying to. If this hit her or distracted, she planned on doing something more, but if it somehow missed. The fast disc that was being motioned by Arisa's hand then followed Alisa to the location Alisa decided to fly. Arisa concentrated on all faults, movements and any attack Alisa decided as she still had her wings out. She had to get this done as something doesn't feel right. 'It's okay... I'm coming for you...' she heard as she kept on concentrating what was in front of her, but the voice was coming from the forest...

Spoiler:

Arisa sighed as she heard the voice again in the forest. 'I'm going to get you... Hehe...' spoke a rather dark husky male voice. It almost made her tear up, but she mentally tried to concentrait. 'I can't show Alisa how scared I am... I got to get stronger.' she thought quickly and then it was time. She looked at the woman, Alisa as she saw that she was still flying. With that disc in contact as Alisa was distracted by it she brought out her other hand that didn't shoot out last time as it gunned out a lazor from her soft finger and at her. If she decided to swing at the sword at the disc, she had no time to dodge the lazor in which was aiming for her shoulder. If she moved her shoulder during this exact time, it'd hit her chest instead. Something was stopping her in telling or warning Alisa on it hitting her chest if she decided to move her arm as she swung at the disc spell.

Arisa was ready once again to move, to do anything, but what she wasn't prepared for was that it was all going to be stopped soon, by a stranger. 'Heeehee...' she heard and motioned away from the forest and in the middle of the opening area that was 20 meters large left and right, up and down of diameter. She was fearing what was in the trees as it felt haunting. Arisa didn't really know who it was, but it was making her tear up. Slowly her eyes slanted as if she was getting irritated. Rather or not Alisa was ready, it was in question. Who was in those trees. How will this fight go? She won't find out till the next move of Alisa.... As she was going to watch what Alisa was going to do she felt something sticky against her shoulder and heavy. Her eyes cornered to see some sort of thick vine against her shoulder as if ready to grab. ''Leave me alone!'' she yelled and moved away to see that there was nothing there. She then started to fly up at least five meters off the air now and looked at the trees for a split second. There was nothing so what was wrong with her!? Was she imagining things? She gulped and looked at alisa as they were now five meters away from up and down ways and about 15 meters away from distance of left and right. She was scared, but it was training time, it was supposed to be fun, right?! She bit her lower lip and clenched her fist as she was ready for whatever the woman had. If she was going to fight her seriously then she should try more than just giving up, right? ...

Spoiler:

Arisa saw the spell hit her friend, but as it hit Alisa's armor it seemed the girl beamed for her in speed. She wasn't sure on what to do because if she used her high ranked spells, who knows what it might do to Alisa. She felt worried, but it was all over as her dear beloved friend striked her down. Between the mental shit that was happening with the voices, being chased down and fighting a training-like battle with Alisa... it was getting too much for her right now. 'I guess I'm just not strong enough yet...' she thought and passed out. Her wings disappeared as they materialized into the tattoo on her back. She felt so much sorrow that it wasn't even funny. A small frown escaped her lips as she was waking back up.

She woke up to be on Alisa's knee or some soft squishy body part. She didn't care at this time as she just sat up to twist and turn to Alisa. ''I'm fine.....'' she spoke calmly and a sorrowful expression.  Alisa was wondering on what happened, but how was she going to explain to the woman what happened? Softly sighing once more she got up slowly to walk over to get a water or two, one for herself and one for Alisa. Once that was done, she came back and sat beside Alisa as the spar was done and over. She knew her friend was quite stronger, but she wanted to try... How strong was her lover? Has he gotten stronger too? Her eyes cornered to look at her. ''I suppose I was hearing voices again... that someone was coming to get me. When I looked away from you, I saw a large vine grabbing for my shoulder - ready to grab and take me away....'' she spoke with sadness and worry in her tone. It usually is motherly, but not this time... no. ''I was so distracted I suppose, but I knew you'd win since my power isn't great enough.... yet I was chosen to be a guild master??... Why me?'' she wondered out loud as she frowned a bit. Arisa sat there with Alisa as they drank water and relaxed during that very day...
