Platinum Bullets of Rain

[Trix]

Dim light emitted from a ghost blue halo that hovered gracefully over the female's head. The hands that held her core were enveloped in long, navy gloves. Her slim figure was seated upon a mighty rock that stuck out like a minature cliff in the grass. The name was Sezuki. Her wings held their pose as they sheltered her from the pouring rain that spalshed in glass pools on the moist ground.
"Alone...."
That was the only thing that came to her mind; how lonely she felt. It was truly a discomfort sitting alone, being drenched in a sudden downpour that rumbled with thunder and with lightning dancing across the sky.
Sezuki adjusted her soft sky bllue dress and huddled once more on the rock, not exactly approving of the miserable weather. A bolt of lightning cracked overhead, sending tension through her body and making her shiver uncomfortably.

[Trix]

Rain pelted his broad shoulders as he slwoly carried on, thorugh the thick vegitation, shrouding the land.
Sighing annoyedly, the man stepped through the thick forest, until he was in the open, gazing out at the tumbling waterfalls, who moved with an incerdible fury; yet with un-deniable grace.
Turning his chocolate brown gaze to the sky as lightning danced across the dark, clouded horizon, a smile graced his lips. He loved storms.
Not being caught outdoors, and far from his destiation, mind you; but he admired their strength. How naturally powerful they were. It was as if the sun feared them.
He laughed lightly and shook his head, sending beadlets of water from his thick head of hair, into the arrayment of rain-drops, who continued to fall on him and the surrounding landscape.
The irony of it was beautiful really, storms were a combination of light and water; usually anyway-- which were both things that were essential for living... Yet, they had the power to kill...
Leaning against a large log, who had toppled over sometime before, the shifter sighed and lifted a hand to his brow, wiping away the beads of water that were constantly pleating his skin.
It was futile, as he had simply become wet again, as the drops continued to disperse.

[Trix]

Sezuki heard the faint whispers of footsteps stepping on the soaked ground. Retracting her odd wings one at a time, she re-located herself to under a thick tree that was damp, yet drier underneath the many branches. Lightning cracked in the sky once more and the wind began to moan and growl about. Sezuki shuddered, to her rain wasn't a positive thing. She looked wearily around the trunk and hid once more upon sight of a male wandering about nearby.

[Trix]

Michale eyed the sky, looking quite detached, asif contemplating some-thing. Sighing half-heartedly he laced his fingers and slid to the ground, sitting in the wet grasses, his deep azure eyes looking troubled as he lay his head back against the dead tree, exasperation clear in his posture.
Would he ever find Gabriel? He rubbed his brow before clearing his throat and running a hand through his drenched locks, a dull, weary amusement about him.
"It is ironic." He murmered. "That I find the land of my families slaughterer, yet he is 'aloof'." Groaning tiredly, the shifter blinked at the stormy sky before laughing softly.
When he did find that sorry son of a bitch, there would be hell to pay.

[Trix]

Sezuki crept away to a greater distance between her and Michale. As she reached another sturdy tree that provided a suitable shelter from the rain, a haunting voice slinked to her ears.
"Ello..."
A shiver sprinted down her spine as she turned to see Gabriel, her worst nightmare, observing one of his two revolvers with a disgusting smirk. Clasping her hands over her mouth in fright, Sezuki held in a scream.
"...!"

[Trix]

Only now did he shift his gaze from the sky, and looked at the trees, his gaze settling on the image of an.... Well, she was certainly a unique woman, who was being clearly bothered by a dark haird man.
Rolling his eyes annoyedly, he cursed his consience and slowly stood, taking a few slow steps toward the two before hearing someone faintly calling.

"Gabby?" Keila called, wandering, hopelessly through the dens vegitation, until she stood a few meters from a rather muscualr looking fellow.
"Er...Not Gabby." She mutered, looking up at the man before sighing exasperatedly.

Michale blinked at ehr and raised a brow. Gabby, as in Gabriel, the 'Blue angel?' He narrowed his eyes and cleared his throat.
"Hello miss. I couldn't help but over-hear you, this 'Gabby' is he a fallen angel?"

Keila slowly nodded, looking somewhat un-sure as she shifted, blinking at the ground. "Yeah, my boyfriend is..." She squinted and looked around, before sighing resignedly. "...Somewhere."

[Trix]

Gabriel didn't hear Keila's call as he carefully pressed the nose of his weapon to her throat. Sezuki quaverred, very frightened and almost paralyzed. A flashback blinded her mind as she remembered Gabriel breaking her wings; banning her from the skies forever.
"Any final wishes?"
The female fallen dug her nails into the tree bark behind her, tears beginning to come to her pleading eyes.
"Please....no, just no..."
Taking a shaky step backward, she began to move around the trunk, only to find that Gabriel followed her close by. Sezuki looked about with dialating pupils, and spinted away behind another tree. The masculine murderer open fired and shot at Sezuki, the bullets missing her eye so barely; some were embedded in the trees as Sezuki fled behind them. He cursed lowly to himself as Sezuki fled towards the pair down the hill. Ducking behind a tree, he poked his head around to watch Sezuki, preparing to fire once more. He was waiting like the spider for the fly to snag in the web that was made ever so carefully. Gabriel's eyes did widen as he noticed Keila.

[Trix]

As the blue-haired woman sprinted toward him, Michale braced himself and opened his arms before catching her against his masculine chest and blinking at her warily. "What in the devil..." He slowly released her, his deep brown eyes wide and un-sure.
Tonight was sure to be an evening he'd never forget. Turning back to Gabriel's 'soul-mate' he furrowed his brow. "So, you're Gabriel's woman eh?" He shrugged before shaking some of the rain-drops from his hair, an exasperated expression covering his face.
"And-- Who are you?" He asked the blue-haired woman, a suspicious look on his face. He had learned to always be weary...

[Ivak]

Sezuki shuddered, her eyes glancing over her shoulder to Gabriel's hiding place. Her long ghostly hair looked rather unkempt as she brushed it aside and out of her ocean blue eyes nervously.
"S-Sezuki..."
she managed to choke. Tears began to roll down her face as she felt a scratch from one of the previously passing bullets begin to sting across her belly. Looking fully around to where the murderer hid, she trembled violently and held her core as she turned back; looking nauseous.
"H-He's a monster...T-that man..."
Sezuki shifted her broken wings slowly, watching the rain as it hit the ground in small pools.

Gabriel clenched his teeth firmly as he watched the little group below. It was a checkmate for him until Keila went away.
"That boy looks rather familiar to me..."
he stole another glance at Michale.
"Ah...He was that kid that came home to see his dead little brother and mum. How sweet. Trying to avenge their deaths...isn't everyone trying avange deaths these days? Heh, I rememer seeing him now as I slipped out the window of the basement..."

[Trix]

Michale turned to the frantic woman next to him and gently stroked her hair. "Who? Who are you running from; it's alright now, I've got you." He gathered her in one of his strong arms while looking in the direction she was, squinting through the rain.

Keila raised her brows and blinked at the other woman. "Are you alright?" She asked un-easily. What in the hell had gone after her?

[Ivak]

Gabriel knew she was going to tell. He knew that she was afraid, but she would tell them. Without a warning, Gabriel fired another bullet from his revolver at Sezuki, yet missed and instead it struck the ground close to the small posse.

Sezuki froze as the bullet hit the ground and shook her head.
"I-I can't say...He'll kill me...."
She burried her face into his chest, tears still flowing softly down her pale cheeks.

[Trix]

Michale glared into the rain. He knew who abode in those woods, who shot at the defenseless woman to his left.
In a dark and angered tone, he turned, putting Sezuki into Keila's arms. "Keep her safe." He growled before morphing into an ebony wolf and sprinting up the hill, making evasive patterns as he went.
Gabriel would be there.

Keila wrapped ehr armsa round the other woman, in blatant shock. "Hi..." She murmered softly. "If my boy-friend Gabby was here he'd help us." She smiled and shrugged good-naturedly.

[Ivak]

Sezuki's eyes widened more as Keila uttered the name 'Gabby'. Shaking her head, she shook even harder.
"Gabby....as in Gabriel?"
She shook her head, trying her best to maintain steady breathing.
"He wouldn't help.....No, he wouldn't help anyone...."

Gabriel cursed under his breath lowly and watched Michale. The murderer had forgotten about him being a shape-shifter, which proved as a benefit to only one side of the battle. Gabriel slid further down the hill, away from the stalking Michale and his keen senses. When he reached to Keila and Sezuki's level of ground, he began to watch the two ladies, but only watched one with admiring eyes. He smiled happily as he secretly watched the pair.

[Trix]

She blinked at the other woman and frurrowed her brows. "That is so rude!" Her voice was ladent with anger and discust. Releasing the other female immediately, she narrowed her eyes. "You don't even know my Gabby." She raised ehr brows and shook her head.
She couldn't possibly be talking about the man who danced around in his boxer-shorts at her room in the cave... It wasn't even the slightest bit plausible.

Michale, at teh top of the hill dove into teh vegitation, taking in the murderer's scent, anger blazing in his heart.
This bastard had killed Kael. A defenseless five-year-old had died at his hands.
Sprinting after the scent trail he again transformed, now back in his human form, wielding a colt .45 revolver in his right hand.

[Ivak]

"Oh shit." Gabriel said, snapping out of his love-drunk trance and sprinting away from Michale. He lept out from behind a bush towards Keila and Sezuki.
"No time to talk - Can't explain now - Bye!" he said to Keila hastily as he ran past his love and dissapeared behind her in another cluster of vegitation.

Sezuki nearly fainted in horror.
"How can you even call that man your boyfriend? He's a vile, insensible brute!"
But yet, her voice held no anger; Only fear.

[Trix]

Keila was taken aback. "Gabby is a sweet and sensitive man, I can surely tell you I haven't the faintest idea as to what you're talking about!"

Michale fired two shots at Gabriel, anger tearing through him. "You coward!" He snarled, leaping after him into the vegitation.

[Ivak]

Gabriel continued to run frantically in the forest, coming to a screeching halt as he saw lightning illuminate the sky. He wasn't much of a man for thunderstorms, but he wasn't about to let something like that stop him. Gabriel spread his wings and flew back, gliding speedily over Michale and heading back to Keila.
His plan however, was interfered as a current of air stole him and took the fallen higher and higher. The hairs on the back of Gabriel's neck stood on end as another bolt flashed, right through one of his wings. A cry of agonizing pain was all that was heard dimly from up high, and then a whistling as Gabriel began to plummet, one of his wings singed horribly. He crashed on the ground not too far from Keila and Sezuki, crumpling in a heap like a rag doll. He wasn't out cold, and was flapping his wing (which actually had caught on fire) to extinguish the flames. As the fire died, all the was really left of the wing was some burnt flesh and scorched bones. Tears came to Gabriel's eyes, as it indeed did hurt quite a bit, but he didn't want to appear weak infront of his love. She knew he was strong...right? He shook ashes from his coat; which had the sleeve closest to the mutated wing burnt completely, yet his skin was hardly touched. Part of the collar was missing along with the sleeve, and part of the bottom of his coat too, was missing.

Sezuki was huddled behind Keila, shaking voilently and pointing at the burnt male.
"T-that's him...Gabriel Ronaiu Narcissus....Murderer of several families...no one can keep track of his records....."

"Keila..." Gabriel muttered, shaking his head and trying his best to recover from the shock. Stumbling over to his love, he collapsed once more at Keila's feet, his body twitching and making electric crackles and noises with every move.
"I-I'm s-sorry..."
