"Why did you let me go? Arent you mad that i killed that other angel? Dont you want revenge?" I asked, angry that the fight had been ended. Damn, that form was week. That angel wasn't nearly as strong as I had thought. I should have changed into the other angel I had in my arsenal.
His eyes narrowed. "I never liked Crim anyway. He was soft. I knew he would never last long in this world. There is no place for someone so kind in a world full of hate and greed. And i let you go because i dont want to fight. Im...so tired of fighting." He was the one that had attacked me and he was going on about hate and greed. It seemed as though he was filled with enough of it. Sure, I had provoked him, as it is my specialty, but he had fallen for the bait. I just hadn't been as strong as I had thought.
To think, I had surrendered to a fallen angel. To degrade myself to that low was unforgivable. I needed to keep training, to regain my prowess. But, if I had no one to spar with, as I hadn't for a very long time, it was hard to train. I admired this one's audacity as he was quite the fighter for not wanting to fight with me from the get go. But, he had been provoked so easily, as though he had been almost looking for a fight.
"Im Phyllis!" I heard her say, pulling me out of my thoughts. She stared at him blankly when he didn't reply. "Well? Arent you gonna tell us your name?"
He looked at the ground. "Im...I'm Aki."
I glared at him as I waited for the stupid game of introductions to be over with. I changed into a female dog demon I had encountered quite a long time ago. This one I had let live as she was a good friend of mine from the organization. I hated being in human form, as humans were too weak, too easily killed should this angel attack me again, though it seemed doubtful at this point in time.
Aki looked at me, "Why do you change forms so much? It must drain you of your strength."
I looked away; I didn't want to make small talk with this guy. He just needed to tell us what he was doing here and move on. "It's a survival instinct," I answered anyway. "Not that you would understand."
He narrowed his eyes but ignored my last comment, shaking his head. He knew I was looking for a fight. Phyllis piped up, "So, Aki, any special reason you are around here?"
