Alive, and flying again.

[Denzel Kumori]

"Its been a loooong time....." Denzel stared downwards as she stood at the top of the mountain. But only one thing was stuck in her mind. A memory...

Denzel gasped as she seen him spirling towards the ground. she jumped off the ledge and dive for him a top speeds, swooping him up in her arms. "dante! what were you thinking?!" she hovers for a moment, and then sets him on the path.
"Ooh Love on the battlefield." Seth playfully says sitting on a rock with his Quill and sketchbook. Denzel glares at him, and seth quickly looks away and starts writing in his sketchbook again. Dante grinned sheepishly, as he flipped Seth off. "I was trying to fly..." he then frowned, "It seems all of my friends can fly now...Seth, Felicity, you...It doesnt matter much, though...I'm getting better! Did you see how big my wings were, guys?" Dante laughed. but denzel shook her head. "when did you become such a show off? Dante, your going to get yourself killed. try flying on wings that you can actually maintain."

When her, Dante, and seth, became a team. SDD; Seth, Dante, Denzel. "try flying on wings you can actually maintain." She smiled sadly, leaping off the mountain top and falling downwards head first. 'i havent felt the wind like this in a long time...'

In one quick moment, denzel flipped herself around so that she was falling feet first. Then, she began to glow... Her wings appeared, catching on the wind and stopping her. She was still really high up, but it felt great. Her wings were black feathers with red tips now.

More memories hit though...

Denzel sighed as she landed on a high ledge. 'i wonder if it would scare them to death if i jumped off the cliff without using my wings'

she took a dep breath, and lept off the ledge. she was falling downwards, head first. she liked the feeling.

"Oh yeah... Last time i did this, i fainted. That was a long time ago... Back when things were good. back when-" Denzels face went red. 'Nope. Things are different now. I kinda killed him... yeah, he is back now. But things will never be the same. I have- no... I HAD walter. But he dissapeared... Looks like im alone again.'
she sighed, flying back onto the ledge. "Im alive... But i dont understand why... Walter should have left me in hell. I am nothing. i am worthless..." Looking up into the distance, denzel sat on the ledge, letting her legs hang over.

[Walter Grace]

Walter flew around the territory of Avaleur in his demon form, making sure all was well. As he flew into the mountains, he slowed down, desperately wanting to see Denzel once more.

His eyes fell upon her, and he practically fell from the sky at that very moment.

As beautiful as always... he thought silently to himself, a large goofy grin upon his face.

"Denzel! My love!" Walter cried out, flying as fast as he could to the girl. He stopped, flying just infront of her. Facing Denzel, he grinned. "It pains me that it has been so long, my love!" he looked at her with sad eyes.

[Steele]

(Oh my god! FINALLY Steele and Denzel have a RP together lol)

Steele sat upon a low rock, just a few feet below Denzel. He'd been sulking when Denzel flew in. He would have been in a state of shock, Denzel had grown much stronger than before, but he was too sad to really care.
He listened as Denzel spoke...The realization that he was the cause for all of this hit him deeply. He bullied the girl to death, and she was still beating herself up over what she was and had done even in her newfound life.

Memories of when they were younger surfaced. Them in the church together. "
"When the war of the beasts brings about the world’s end
The goddess descends from the sky
Wings of light and dark spread afar
She guides us to bliss, her gift everlasting...."
"Infinite in mystery is the gift of the goddess
We seek it thus, and take it to the sky
Ripples form on the water’s surface
The wandering soul knows no rest

There is no hate, only joy
For you are beloved by the goddess
Hero of the dawn, Healer of worlds

Dreams of the morrow hath the shattered soul
Pride is lost
Wings stripped away, the end is nigh", narrowing her eyes, she looked at the statue. It made her wonder who it was.

Those were the days....Now look at the two of them.
Steele was an outlaw and the most hated person in all of Avaleur, and Denzel....Denzel was no longer hated.

Steele got to his feet and let out a sigh. This week was very stressful.
"Fanger, are ye' still mopin' around like yer' some kid who's lost their ma' nd' da?" He says. It wasn't the most gracious greeting but what can you say to someone you killed?
"Yev' been given a new life three times, nd' ye' weren't happy in any of em'." He says.

Steele knew Denzel would probably kick his ass, but right now Steele was too depressed to really care.

[Denzel Kumori]

First, denzel didnt even recognize walter...let alone care much at the moment. She was NOT happy with him at the moment. Second.... Denzel Stood up, glaring at Steele. "Shut it werewolf! You certainly havent done much with your life. So just shut the flip up, and leave me alone. Ive put up with enough of your bullshit in all 3 of my lives." She lifted her hand to slap him, but sighed...putting her hand down and clenches her fist. "Once apon a time, i was happy. but those times are gone."

Looking at walter, she narrowed her eyes. "who are you...? "

[Walter Grace]

The demon raised an eyebrow at Steele. Walter remembered how Namari looked coming back to the city, and it bothered even the demon. So naturally he had negative feelings toward Steele at that point, especially as a demon. But he was too shocked at what Denzel had said to say a word to him. Walter tensed up, and frowned. "What do you...mean...I'm Walter of course..."

[Steele]

What Denzel said got to him, normally he would of just ignored whatever she said but not today.
He looked at Walter after what Denzel said to him.
"Look lad, I din't kno' much, but obviously she broke up with ye'. Nd' no offense, but ye' were probably a shitty' boyfriend anyway. Why else would she not love you?"
That was just Steele's way of telling Walter to shut up, he still disliked him for what happened at the lake.

He looked back at Denzel.
"I din't blame ye' if ye' want ti' bash my skull in rite' now afta' all I've done...I mean if it wasn't fir' me ye' probably wouldn't be so unhappy. But din't take yer' anger oot' on otha's fanger. I was thee one who tried to bring thee vampire oot' of ye', rather than help ye' deal with it. If I had just intervened when ye were aboot' ti' attack the townspeople, they would still be alive, and the massacre would've neva' happened. But I didn't....I jus' sat on a roof nd' watched ye'. Maybe if we were friends, thee tournament wouldn't hev' ended like it did....I'm thee one who caused all thee problems fir' ye. Not Walter, not Dante, not anyone...jus' me. Din't waste anotha' life being sad and bitter at everyone, I'm the only one who deserves yer' hate. I jus' want ye' ti' know, that I'm so sorry fir' everything hinny. I'm sorry fir' me."
He looks down.
"I really will leave you alone forever now." He turns about to leave.

[Walter Grace]

"You're one to talk, ehh Steele?" Walter barked at him while gritting his teeth. "I heard about you and Namari of course. You calling me a shitty boyfriend? Attack the place she loves and then break up with her, great idea."

Walter was surprised at what Steele had said to Denzel. If Steele hadn't said a word to him, maybe he would have even felt a little bit of respect. But while Walter was hurt, stabbing at his heart like that made him fairly angry. So, naturally, he fought back with basically the same argument.

"The woman's already had to deal with one heartbreak, and I have no clue what you two discussed but she came back the saddest she's ever looked. Tell me Steele, did you ever love her? Because it doesn't look like it," Walter crossed his arms, still hovering infront of Denzel.

Turning his attention back to Denzel with a sad look on his face, he bit his lip, "Please my dear, forgive my absence...I have much to tell you, and much to listen to...I deserve any ill-emotions you will throw at me, just as long as we may work this all out."

[Steele]

Steele turned around angrily.
"I din't kno' Walter, Did ye' eva' love her?" He says looking at Denzel and then back at Walter.
"Ye' hev' no idea what love is...ye' left Denzel when she needed ye' most nd' now yer' expecting her ti' jus come runnin' into yer' arms like she's some submissive prize?"
Steele shook his head.
"So din't go lecturin' me aboot' love demon, ye' will neva' have it in yer black heart."

[Walter Grace]

Walter had his hands in fists, clearly extremely angry. "I sulked for days on end after her death. It didn't stop until I went to fucking hell to bring her back, I would have given my life for her to come back! She is a hundred times more important and special than a prize, she is a being who I respect and honor, someone I could never even wish to compare to. I love her, and I always will. I would do anything for Denzel, anything at all. You can say whatever the hell you want about my heart, it doesn't matter what you think. I love her. You may not believe that, but I know that my love for her is in my heart. It always will be."

"I may be a horrible boyfriend. But unlike you, I'm trying to fix that. Unlike you, I'm trying. Unlike you, I actually give a fuck."

[Steele]

Steele was beyond pissed off, his rage slowly built up with every word Walter said to him. It didn't help that he was already under a high level of stress.
He took a deep breathe.
"Walter...I wish I could be moor' gracious but..."
He threw a haymaker right at Walter's face.

[Walter Grace]

Walter got punched in the face of course. But as that happened, he threw a punch right back at Steele in the stomach, as hard as he could, pushing himself forward with his wings.

[Denzel Kumori]

Denzel couldnt take this. "JUST STOP IT BOTH OF YOU!" she slapped both of them in the face. "Walter, when i needed you the most, where the hell were you?! You could have sent me a letter or something instead of just making me think you either abandoned me, or died! Yeah, im a being too! I have emotions you know! Not a day went by where i didnt think of you. Im so angry, so upset. Nothing can really explain what im feeling right now!"

she turned her glare at steele. "Steele, You have no right to tell him what im feeling. I cant change the fact that you did nothing. Cant help but be angry at you for breaking namari's heart, but in all honesty i dont even give a shit right now. Steele, you killed me, Namari let me die. End of story. Most the time, i cant tell if your emotions are real and sincere or not. the steele i know doesnt give a shit either. I dont understand why you are a knight, when your a bandit."

she sighed, backing away.
"Dreams of the morrow hath the shattered soul
Pride is lost
Wings stripped away", and with that, denzel started walking away. 'The other vampire? The other vampire is a part of me. there is no other vampire. Im the only one who accepted her for what and who she is.'

[Walter Grace]

"Denzel, my love, I deserve your hate right now but you also must understand that there was neither a day I hadn't thought of you as well! I would have visited, I would have, things just got...complicated...much too quickly! I will tell you everything, explain everything, as long as you'll listen!" Walter bit his lip, following the girl quickly, once again ignoring Steele. He took her hand lightly.

"Only if you'll listen...If you wish for me to leave I will, I just want to work this all out..." Walter gave off a shakey sigh.

[Denzel Kumori]

"Im not a submissive prize. Right now, i dont think i want to hear it." She removed her hand from his, clenching her fists. "Sometimes i think you should have just left me in hell. That way, i wouldnt have to deal with things like this. i could just be forgotten. I dont deserve as many lives as ive gotten. Why is it that you and Dante are demons, but im nothing. im a waste of space in your life. Im just holding you back from the world. Just think of it, without me, you can do so much more. You probably had a blast where ever the fuck you were."

[Walter Grace]

"I couldn't let you stay there Denzel. I wouldn't be able to go on. Without you I'm nothing, I'm a heartless demon who doesnt give a shit. With you I'm more. You have never, and never will be, a waste of space in anyones lives. The last time I was at my happiest was the last time you were by my side. I've had one happy moment since, and it was practically nothing compared to thehappiness I have with you!" Walter ran his hands through his hair, eyebrows creased into a sad expression.

[Denzel Kumori]

Denzel's wings appeared, and turned to look at him. "Right now, i need to be alone..." her face had a somewhat painfull expression. " Remembering what its like to be happy only hurts more." Denzel's memories of walter were kinda hazy. She missed him, and wanted to be with him. He wasnt there... Denzel decided to block memories. she couldnt even remember if walter seen her wings before.

[Steele]

Steele clenched his stomach where he was brutally punched, and Denzel's slap left a mark on his already scarred up face.
He growled angrily.
"I guess I din't kno' why either..."
He looked at Walter.
"Ye' win't hev' yer' demon side ti' protect yerself foreva'...So when ye' change back, ye betta' watch yer back. Or I'll be chewin' on it." He angrily says.

He follows Denzel almost stubbornly.
"Ye' kno' that scroll ye' found when ye' were with thee changer nd' Dante? Well truth twas' I was with ye three every step of thee way up thee mountain. SDD was it?"

[Walter Grace]

"Yeah and you better watch your back Steele. Avaleur is already pissed at you, I have you to worry about you harming me but you have the entire town. Not to mention I can defend myself perfectly fine without my demon form!" Walter called out to Steele.

He then turned to Denzel, not wanting to give up, but at the same time she did say she wanted to be alone. "...come find me when you are ready then, my little dove," he sighed, beginning to walk in the opposite direction.

[Denzel Kumori]

"Im not a dove...." She whispered, biting her lip. Denzel creased her eyebrows, looking at steele frusterated. "You were there the whole time?" she turned towards him. "SDD was disbanded long ago. By me."

[Denzel Kumori]

"Why the hell would you be following us anyways?! It was none of your buisness!" She snarled.

But with all her heart, she just wanted to hug walter...yet she was so angry with him, that she wanted to kick him. hard. She really should be overflowing with joy right now. "Walter, you left saying a word, and never came back for- months i think? I shouldnt be the one crawling back to you. Im not a dove, nor am i submissive. Ive changed, and you have certainly changed. I dont even know you anymore walter... Does it look like im enjoying this? Im hating this."
