Halo growls in reply, his eyes dark with anger. He slowly relaxes when it left before sighing and folding his wings back. He looks at the female. "Come. It's not safe out in the open like this."
Halo growls in reply, his eyes dark with anger. He slowly relaxes when it left before sighing and folding his wings back. He looks at the female. "Come. It's not safe out in the open like this."
"Y-you have wings." Kiki mumbled, starring at them confused. "A-are y-you- are you?" She felt her breathing increase Indacating that she was hyperventilating. don't pass out Don't pass out. she tried to tell herself.
"Yes. I have wings." He looks at the female. "Quickly. We don't have much time. You can asked questions when we're safe."
Kiki nodded her head and forced her breathing to slow. But her head still felt hazy, as if she could still faint from shock.
Halo gently grabs her hand in his warm ones and leads the way to a cabin. He hurries her inside and shuts the doors. It seemed hidden from the world. Halo turns on her before leading her into the living room where he started a fire. "Get warm." He says, tossing a blanket at her.
Kiki gave a panicked look when he shut the door, but she couldn't deny the fact that she was cold, and the warmth did feel good. so she excepted the blanket.
He makes some hot chocolate, it was easy to see what he was doing. He handed it to her before settling beside the fire and taking a sip of the drink. "Alright. I'm sure you're bursting with questions, go ahead."
Kiki held the drink, eyeing it awkwardly. She looked up at him, fear still in her eyes. She nodded her head and spoke quietly. "You have wings?"
Halo looks back at his wings. "Yes. I have wings." He chuckles slightly, taking a sip of his drink. He looks at the fire, smiling a little.
"B-but why?" Kiki cocked her head to the side. "Are you a? One of the?" She couldn't find the right words, as fear still had a hold on her.
Halo looks at her with gentle eyes as she talks. "I am not going to hurt you," he assured gently.
"Right… Uh sorry." Kiki looked down at her hands, feelings stupid for being so scared. "Um, thank you." She mumbled.
Halo nods and chuckles. "It's alright. You weren't hurt at all?" He asks as he glances at the other.
"No." Was her short response. Kiki wrung her hands and stayed quiet for a moment more before looking back up at the stranger. "Are you one of them?" She asked quietly.
"One of them how, dear?" He asks, taking a sip of his drink. "A monster? Heaven's no. I'm a guardian. I'm supposed to protect the last of mankind. Though. You're the first human I've seen in ages."
Kiki tilted her head to the side slightly, "guardian?" She asked quietly as if still confused. " but, there are More people. Around."
"Not in this section, thanks to that monster we just faced." Halo says with a slight sigh. "Yes. I am a guardian. A caretaker. I'm surprised you saw me."
"Sorry. I didn't mean to." Kiki looked back down at her hands, feeling slightly less panicked, and slightly more like she was dreaming.
Halo chuckles. "No need to be sorry. It was lucky you ran into me, really."
"Lucky? How?" Kiki again looked up at him, a hint of fear returning to her eyes as she searched his face.
"If you hadn't bumped into me, the monster would have killed you." He shrugs and takes another sip. "You're lucky you're alive. And now, you have a guardian. How neat is that." He sets down his empty cup.
Kiki watched him carefully, her eyes darting to his wings every now and again. "What do you mean I have a guardian now?"
"I'm your guardian. Basically, I protect you until you die." He says casually.
Kiki cocked her head to the side and raised an eye brow. "I must of hit my head harder then a thought." She mumbled to herself. "This is a dream, right?"
Halo looks at her with a raised eyebrow and shakes his head. "If this were a dream, I'm sure you would already wake up in the belly of a beast. You're awake." He chuckles softly and shakes his head.
"But people with wings don't exist." Her eye brows knit together in confusion. "And for the record that would have ment the beast was part of the dream too. Right?"
"Darling. When the world started to fall apart, creatures from both heaven and hell were sent here. Demons try their hardest to kill people, we try to save them. Anyways, you should rest. You're safe now. I have an extra room upstairs."
"Heaven and Hell? Demons?" Kiki shook her head. yes a dream, that's exactly what this is. Her fear of this stranger had disappeared once she'd convinced herself that it was in fact a dream, not reality.
Halo nods and offers his hand. "Come now. Let's get you settled."
Kiki eyed his hand cautiously, but none the less excepted it and stood. "Alright." She mumbled.
